Sensation Innerspace Dance Event| Sensation White | Johannesburg

Posted on 17 May, 2013 | Leave a comment

On September 7 Sensation will be making its South African debut with its themed show ‘Innerspace’ at the Coca-Cola Dome in Johannesburg.

Sensation Innerspace South Africa

What is it? A massive dance event pure and simple, but one that is a massive upscale from what we in South Africa are used to.

The show..

“ show all about spirituality. Let us take you on a journey through the seven stages of enlightenment. Be amazed by the labyrinth of white balloons hanging from the ceiling, the immense lotus flowers and the spectacular aerial dancers”

“Sensation Innerspace is a spiritual experience, an adventurous journey throughout the seven stages of enlightenment. Ignore your daily worries, let go of all stress and open your mind to a higher state of consciousness. Don’t think about the past, don’t think about the future, celebrate and enjoy the now. Partake in this collective spiritual experience with kindred spirits, all united and dressed in white.”

I am truly gutted this show is not coming to Cape Town as by the video’s its looks to sell itself as an event that verge’s on the religious enlightenment side of things, with some banging DJ’s, stage props, trapeze acts, dancer….you name.

Watch a few of these vids…you’ll be gagging.

It’s going to be Biblical…

Coenie Oosthuizen doses Jack Lam

Posted on 16 May, 2013 | Leave a comment

Last weekend’s Super Rugby results were pretty damn average from a South African point of view. Except for two moments, the firs being the Kings beating the Highlanders (nice one lads), the second being the Cheetah’s Coenie Oosthuizen rocking the Hurricane’s Jack Lam.

No really, Coenie cleaned this oke good and proper causing the kiwi to leave the field shaking his head and wondering where this Ox-wagon came from.

DA goes on the offensive | Know Your DA

Posted on 15 May, 2013 | Leave a comment

KnowYourDA

Gloves are off and what a time to get cracking, the ANC couldn’t organize a piss up in a brewery (which in that case I sure they could with a nice bottle of Johnny Red). Essentially the Democratic Alliance is gatvol of being excluded when it comes to identifying the role they played in helping this country kick apartheid to the curb.

A monopoly long-held by the ruling party, and one in which the ANC feels they have exclusive rights to. The DA reckons this cannot fly any longer.

The ANC literally have got quite pissed off with their bread and butter campaign tactic of reminding the masses they are solely responsible for the country’s turn-around. With their current record the time could not be better to educate the South African population that there were others, do I need to provide examples…I think not.

The traditional electorate for the ANC is getting older and the battle to hold on to the holy grail (in an electoral context) is being fiercely contested among the more youthful sections who had nothing to do with apartheid.

Should the ANC be scared..hope so.

Dude charges Elephant in South Africa Kruger National Park

Posted on 15 May, 2013 | Leave a comment

This exploded on Monday and has gone viral proper, have a quick Google search for ‘man charges elephant’ and the top search results will show some of the biggest online publications out there have run this story and the infamous clip.

man charges elephant

So what took place? An off duty ranger, which was by all accounts pissed as a fart, charge an elephant, stumbled and gave it a second go. 

Not his finest hour and has caused a proverbial shit storm for this chap and as one would expect a serious backlash from all angles.

Not a great example and horrible timing considering the sensitivity of wildlife protection in SA, with the rhino poaching at an all time high.

Okes are on edge.

Heard the fella on 2Oceansvibe Radio this afternoon and he seemed shattered from this brain fart and his genuinely apologetic.

Still pretty mental.

What Exactly is Bitcoin?

Posted on 13 May, 2013 | Leave a comment

Bitcoin

Right Bitcoin. I’ve been trying to get my head around this concept and have basically gone cross-eyed every time. I mean an intangible currency that is ‘mined’ on your computer  that has an US Dollar value but not backed by any institution or government…you see cross-eyed.

 

According to that marvellous thing called Wikipedia, 

“calls it a peer-to-peer, electronic cash system.Bitcoin creation and transfer is based on an open source cryptographic protocol and is not managed by any central authority. Each bitcoin is subdivided into 100 million smaller units called satoshis, defined by eight decimal places. Bitcoins can be transferred through a computer or smart phone without an intermediate financial institution.

One can also find the nuts and bolt’s on Bitcoin website.

But I prefer a more visual approach, check out the below two video, even 2Oceanvibe, Seth Rotherham, has a crack at this.

Posted on 9 May, 2013 | Leave a comment

There is no other way to put this…Jonny Wilkinson got absolutely cleaned by Agen’s Opeti Fonua and saw his arse over a few times. Johny boy was on the receiving end of one of the biggest knocks of his career as Toulon took down Agen 43-21 at last Saturday in the French league.

Wilkinson, who we all know doesn’t  stand back from a bit of contact must still be needing help when taking a slash.

Country : Tonga
