27 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments

There’s A Mara Louw-Shaped Hole In All Of Us
26 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The producers of Idols South Africa have let Mara Louw go after three seasons of racist slur, violent outbursts, faux couture and drunken shenanigans. Boy, that was fun. She was the single judge who could always be counted on to do something unscripted and rash at around the 40 minute mark of every episode. What do we do now?

Woman Jumps Off 23-Storey Building And Survives
25 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
A woman in Argentina flung herself off the top of a 23-story hotel, but her suicide attempt was unluckily thwarted when she landed on a taxi cab, thereby prolonging her life. The lesson being, if you ever find yourself plummeting towards the earth, try locate an empty taxi and get into the ‘bum-first’ position, unless you actually want to commit suicide.

24 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
This short time lapse film of Cape Town was put together by Silver Bullet productions, and it is pretty stunning. Everyone knows that Cape Town is aesthetically beautiful, and when it comes to its treatment on film, this beauty can be to its detriment. This film shows Cape Town through a darker, gorgeous lens.

18 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Hang on a tick. I thought that calling anybody a loser was the prerogative of the person doing the loser calling. Not so, according to Mr C. Ngcukana, viewer of e.tv’s Justice Factor.

JORDY SMITH INTERVIEW : He Wants Kelly Slater – He “Wants Him Bad”

Alright, so that title may be pushing it, especially considering that the world #2 hasn’t claimed his first ASP World Tour title yet (clue: he will, this year), but with pro surf photographer Ant Fox, Seth and Bruce Good in attendance, it was a pretty darn fine interview.

What’s This Google?
24 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
Google’s logo mutations are mostly spot on. For Easter they gooi some bunnies. When there’s pumpkins and draculas you know it’s Halloween. Bobsleds, Winter Olympics. It’s not always pretty but most times it makes sense so what in the name of everything holy, clear and sacred do our friends over at Google mean by this one?

Tina Fey Is Sarah Palin? Epic Sunday Tribune Fail
18 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Independent Newspapers has been providing us with little gems of unintentional wordplay for years now.

Oh Hey, Just Unicycling Across The Country, No Big Deal
14 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Unicycling has arguably been around since there have been wheels and chairs. That’s just science. Charity has been around for a pretty long time too. So it’s fitting that these two ancient disciplines would come together in the Counter Balance ‘Freedom Revolution Tour,’ which is raising funds to provide disadvantaged school kids with shoes.

We pulled out some vinyl in the 2oceansvibe Radio studio the other day and found ourselves playing We Will Rock You by Queen. My Friday co-host, Bruce, reminded me of the old classic Sun City TV commercial, which used the same song. My Twitter friends helped find the video. Check it out – epic!

News24, Is This Entirely Necessary?
09 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
The face of news is changing on a daily basis. It really has to. For as long as people have communicated, the basic premise of news has been one person asking another, “Tell me something new and interesting.” One person’s “new and interesting” may not be another’s news. News24 is very aware of this fact.

17 Nov 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 11 Comments
