    NASA Is Going to Harpoon An Asteroid [VIDEO]

    NASA wants to put somebody on an asteroid by 2025 because they don’t know how else to get people’s attention. And to succeed in this entirely worthwhile endeavour, they’ve designed a mechanism by which to harpoon asteroids, so that vehicles can land on the thing despite the weakened gravity. Call me Ishmael.

    Google Gets Its Gaydar On

Between mapping the world (and the moon), interior designing the internet or digitizing every part of your work life, Google seems to have it all covered, and now US netizens can even access a Google application that makes a best guess at someone’s sexual preference.

    Powerful Pre-Trial Letter By Young Offender

    My biggest problem with Mark Esterhuysen is that he has failed at properly explaining to the average Joe why he did what he did. That is a real pity. Robin Henry was sentenced to 12 months of house arrest for smashing shop windows during a G20 summit. The following is a letter wrote, presented in court, to explain his actions. You should read it too, Mark.

    Khanyi Mbau Naked Pictures Leaked Onto Internet – If You Care

    Self-proclaimed gold-digger and ‘socialite,’ Khanyi Mbau, has hit the online headlines for something new besides her shopping habits and lack of taste. Yes folks, it’s time for the inevitable naked picture leak! There are two main pics, one of her on her back and one explicit photo of Khanyi on all-fours with her bum to the camera and an expression on her face that says, “oh you like that, do you?”

    Umm, no… We don’t.

    Channel24 reports:

    A Twitter account for the domain name Boobsafrica.com has leaked naked photos of Khanyi Mbau and has threatened to post naked pictures of other local celebrities online. Tweeting with Khanyi Mbau’s picture as their profile photo, Boobsafrica has also threatened to post naked pictures of Nonhle Thema, Dineo Ranaka and Pam Andrews. [more here]

    Boobsafrica? Brilliant name. I tell you, it is only a matter of time before this chick’s sex-tape hits. Only then can we truly call ourselves first world.

    I should just add, we don’t care too much about Khanyi Mbau around these parts, but apparently she is a “thing” in Johannesburg? Maybe we’re spoilt with all the supermodels down here in Cape Town – preferring accolades like “Sports Illustrated Cover Model” rather than “banged the wealthy owner of a nightclub.”

Man had some issues.
