Earth Project Plans To ‘Simulate Everything‘ – An international group of scientists are aiming to create a simulator that can replicate everything happening on Earth – from global weather patterns and the spread of diseases to international financial transactions or congestion on Milton Keynes’ roads. Nicknamed the Living Earth Simulator (LES), the project aims to […]
Reading is a little challenging. Obviously not that challenging – you’re doing it right now – but the idea of being out there in the world and letting people judge you based on the latest thing [insert shitty author] has squeezed out is a pretty scary thought, for some. But never fear! There are books that make you look smart for no apparent reason.

There wasn’t much joy for the Aussie cricketers yesterday (or today for that matter). They were licking their wounds well into the night. However, a face-off between the great Shane Warne and X-Men star and all-round (no pun) legend Hugh Jackman had the crowd truly grimacing – as Wolverine took a googly to the nether regions. Ooorph.
Hugh Hefner Is Engaged – Hugh Hefner’s Christmas was extra, extra jolly this year: He’s engaged again! The Playboy founder, 84, is engaged to Crystal Harris, his 24-year-old girlfriend and Playmate. Hefner first Tweeted about it on Sunday. “When I gave Crystal the ring, she burst into tears. [usmagazine] Julian Assange Forced Into $1.5M Book […]
Toys R Us have taken to selling babies in boxes. We’re uncertain how long this horror has been going on for, or how much longer we can expect the youth of our society to suffer such visual carnage.
Christmas! That time of year when you remember how terrible Boney M is, when the joyful screeching of little children makes you want to take a cheese-grater to the ears, and when you worry that nothing but all the liquor in the world will make things better. Except not all christmas-noises are terrible. Here is some evidence.
We’re all in the festive spirit of things welcoming loved ones with open arms and big bear hugs. It’s a lekker time of the year just don’t get carried away and run around in airports in your little red santa suit holding stuff in front of your face. This little boy didn’t listen. He probably had it coming.
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?
This time last year Tiger Woods was embroiled in that infamous scandal, which had the vultures at the tabloids clicking their poison pens. A year later and the safety razor group known by 99% of the facial hair-growing community as Gillette, is cutting all ties. Hank Moody gets away with the odd dalliance, but the world’s most renowned golfer is still reeling.
Hey guys. Men. Let me tell you something. Not often, but every so often, you spot that sort of lady. That special sort of lady that makes you think, “Oh if only I could take her in my arms, and we would slow dance like the night would never end!” With these tips, you might just get that chance. But probably not.
William & Kate Get Their Own Coin – Well as you can imagine the poms are up in arms over the new coin, which has William and Kate’s faces engraved on it. Apparently the coin doesn’t look a thing like the two lovebirds. They’re moaning about William’s hair in the image, as well as Kate’s […]
We reported earlier that the Cape Quarter Lifestyle Village website had been subject to a hack by a member of the XtremeRoot.net educational hacking site, who went by the name of Legacy123. Legacy123’s hack has since been hacked, by someone using the cypher K141, and they’re not friendly.
You also bump into things, talk loud, take swipes at lamp shades and smash your fist through tempered glass when you’re drunk? Well, it’s not because we were simply raised that way. It’s not even the liquor. It’s Drunk Gene.
The Cape Quarter Lifestyle Village’s website was hacked this morning by someone using the cypher “Legacy123”. Legacy left a cheery little Christmas note for the Cape Quarter Website admins, and a link to an offensive security hacking forum, xtremeroot.net. The Cape Quarter Lifestyle Village is the home of 2oceansvibe Radio’s studios.
You can’t touch this! No, you most definitely can. Check out the 2oceansvibe Radio interview with the Hammer in the afternoon prior to his Cape Town gig, after the jump.
This according to Andre Meyer their big chief executive. The Big Chief came under fire last week because his company is increasing their rates by 6.9 percent instead of the recommended 3.6 percent. But you and I profit. “After all, by law medical schemes are not for profit entities,” he said in a statement. You scheme?
Ever wondered what it’s like to compete in the hurdles? It’s bloody difficult. The hurdles are a lot higher than you think and after landing on the other side your strides need to be evenly distributed. Complicated stuff. Well if you’re looking to improve DO NOT take advice from this sorry muppet: he’s been dubbed ‘the worst hurdler in history’. [VIDEO]
This past weekend I suffered the doppelganger effect. It’s that moment of television watching when, just as the sofa threatens to ingest your lumpy physique, your whole body surges forward violently, propelled by sudden realisation. Kevin Pietersen met the Cable Guy in my mind’s eye.
Past KFM listeners can take a stroll down memory lane this morning as Seth Rotherham and Rich Hardiman find themselves on-air with none other than the former ‘voice of Cape Town’ – Nic Marais.

I was always under the impression that cricketers weren’t the best-paid sportsmen on the planet. Well our very own Proteas Graeme Smith and AB de Villiers are set for ‘mahooooosive’ paydays come next year’s IPL. There are 19 others in the highest reserve price and believe me, they’re being paid quite a bit of Tom! Good form chaps.
Due Date is delivered to screen by Todd Phillips, who is the quintessential frat house comedy director with The Hangover, Road Trip, Old School under his belt and The Hangover Part II in the works. If it were a baby, it’d be a poison dwarf: ginger-bearded, brutally funny and pretty darn mean. However, it’s not […]
These photographs were shot in 1969, and were uncovered in some inocuous storage unit just last week. They’re a pretty fascinating documentary of a brief period in 1969 when the United States Army Engineer Corps dammed up the falls slightly upstream. It was the first time in thousands of years that the falls had run dry.
SA’s union-in-chief has threatened strike action against the US retail giant before a single Walmart brick has been laid. That’s the way we do it here, Yanks. You don’t come to our country with your big ass shops and just put them up everywhere. We have rules. And Cosatu.

There’s a pun in there, but if I’d been the one to write it I’d be forced to punch myself in the face, and that’s relatively difficult. Photographer John Mason has released a series of colour photos depicting Sophiatown’s destruction in ’59; they’re worth checking out on your lunch break. Pretty colours, historical relevance…take your pick.
If someone had told you that the creator of the Simpsons, Matt Groening, and late night talk show king, David Letterman had parodied ANCYL[biters] president, Julius Malema, you would not have believed them.
