Links between these two high rollers have been gossiped about and reported on before. It’s no big secret that shortly after his 2006 arrest on rape charges, JZ made a shimmy over to Tripoli for five days where he met with Colonel Gaddafi. Now JZ and the Colonel have had a little phone conversation.
Have you ever walked on a road with your bare feet in summertime, and noticed how much heat the tar holds? That heat is an expression of solar energy, received from the sun, held in the conducive asphalt, and radiated back on to your toes. We’re wasting that energy, but hopefully for not much longer.
Politicians cheat on occasion, and I don’t just mean at cards. Sometimes they sleep with people that they’re not married to. Sometimes politicians condemn their peers for adultery, only to be caught in the very same act some time later.
Well, I mean not totally – it’s the evidence found on Facebook as grounds for the dissolution of marriage which causes 20% of all divorce cases in the US, but still. Big number.

I first heard about their new music video on News24, but that story was to do with the fact that Die Antwoord’s new music video, ‘Rich Bitch,’ could not be viewed in South Africa. Even though it is on YouTube, a message appears, stating ‘blocked for territories outside of the US and Canada.’ Thankfully 2oceansvibe’s […]

Aside from hunting, interbreeding and kicking back in caves, looks like our ancestors were totally into hallucinogenics. Researchers have been analysing cave paintings in Spain, and have come to the conclusion that our long lost relatives weren’t adverse to dabbling with ‘magic mushrooms’ from time to time.
Everybody loves a little bit of sensationalism, especially when the majority of news starts becoming rather bland and repetitive. Take for example the way The Sun headlined this piece: “Disaster as moon closes in” – awesome vibe. Fact is though, that no disaster should technically happen and surfers should actually be getting amped for a mission, bru.
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it Superman? It’s Wednesday – so it must be an alien invasion. In Hollywood, alien invasions have become even more commonplace than UFO sightings. Just over the last few years, there’s been a resurgence in alien interest – spurred on by the success of movies like […]

Wow. Okay.

Fearing for his life, Mr. Timothy James Chapek locked himself in the bathroom of a house he’d broken into and dialed 911. He told the operator that he had broken into the house and that he was afraid that the owner may have a gun.
You’d be surprised at how many businesses are fond of censoring free speech in their workplaces. Following last year’s banning of the 2oceansvibe site in Virgin Active gyms, a recent study completed by OpenDNS has uncovered the ten most blacklisted websites by businesses around the world. You may or may not be surprised by the list.
2oceansvibe has always made it very clear that, as much as we would like to, we simply cannot help everyone and so we share our charitable efforts between the BobsForGood & MyLife causes. There are however some cases that occur so close to home that it would be unnatural not to make the most of this platform […]
Almost four and a half years ago a penned an angry missive in an effort to educate the tiny percentage of the population who didn’t know already that ‘work’ related activity on Friday afternoons in Cape Town (should be everywhere) does not happen. Let’s repeat that that for those of your whose minds are exploding at this point. Together now. Breathe in, and hold it, and… “Work does not happen on Friday afternoons in Cape Town.” Click through for an important announcement.
That’s right, camel milk demand is on the up and the word is getting out. Demand from diabetic patients, parents of autistic children and sufferers of Crohn’s disease has resulted in them becoming their own powerful lobbyists. Internationally that is. So when will camel milk sail into the mainstream market here at home I wonder?
You’ve probably heard the news that Justin Bieber appeared on an episode of CSI. What they didn’t tell you is that he looks exactly like a lesbian who got punched in the eye after losing a game of pool, and that he gets killed by the CSI cops.

So hey, congrats to all you non-male, non-Chinese folks who were worried about looking average! Because according to a decade’s worth of research by the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing for National Geographic, a 28-year-old Han Chinese male is the mean. Numbers, explanation after the jump.

In support of Equal Payday, which seeks to address the disparity between male and female salaries around the world, Benny Benassi has remade the sexy-construction-outfits video for ‘Satisfaction’ to mark International Women’s Day. It’s a little bit amazing. Satisfaction came out in 2002, by the way.
To commemorate the occasion NASA held a competition to determine which two songs will be played during Discovery’s last mission.
The theme From Star Trek was chosen and William Shatner, who as you know played Captain James Tiberius Kirk in the original series, did a special voice-over.
This new footage, which has just been leaked, shows an NYPD helicopter’s perspective of the event. The video was obtained under the Freedom of Information Act as part of an investigation into 9/11.
