Usually to get your commercial banned from the Super Bowl you would need to have something too risque for daytime television to handle – something that will get the tannies to utter the words “O, nee!” and make her face turn red. This is not the case with Scarlett Johansson’s SodaStream commercial, so what gives?
This is for all those people currently on medical schemes and enjoying out-of-hospital benefits. It’s important to educate yourself on this stuff, because more often than not, you may find yourself having to pay for scans and checkups out of your own pocket. The costs of your treatment in a medical emergency should be covered by your medical scheme, but the often high costs of diagnosing your condition in an emergency situation won’t be covered.
With the the $1.4 billion legal marijuana market expected to grow to $10.2 billion in the next five years, entrepreneurs and venture capitalists alike are climbing into the newly formalised weed economy. No more the breeding grounds of syndicates and criminals, astute businessmen aim to capitalise on the “high-tech” weed industry flourishing in US states like California and Colorado.
Unsuspecting Chelsea fans were interviewed about a couple of potential signings to their club. Football fans always seem to have their two cents to add when it comes to their favourite team – pity that all the players were made-up.
Tens of thousands of people watched as two children standing either side of Pope Francis released two white doves in a symbolic appeal for peace in Ukraine. At that point, a seagull and a large black crow swept down, and attacked the doves.
Woody Allen’s wit and nuances, coupled with his unprecedented work load, churning out one movie every year, most of them award winning, makes it hard not to like the short, spectacled filmmaker. But a dark cloud has resurfaced around Woody Allen’s past recently, due to an article published by Vanity Fair.

For astronauts, eating a simple pizza is out of the question, relegated to the memory of their good times back on Earth. For obvious reasons, those poor guys up there are stuck with canned and freeze-dried prepackaged foods. But things are looking up. Last year NASA hired a mechanical engineer to build a prototype of a […]
The 56th Grammy Awards reunited Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr for a special performance of ‘Queenie Eye’ taken from McCartney’s 2013 album, ‘New’. The two Beatles members didn’t miss a beat and had the entire crowd of the Staples Centre in Los Angeles on their feet by the end of the song.
Nobody could have anticipated this, but the growing hipster culture and Movember movement has been blamed for a massive decrease in Procter & Gamble’s profits as Gillette razors and Braun electric razors sales plummet.

To the guy in the black Chrysler Crossfire who came up behind me like a madman, while I was stuck behind a taxi in the right lane. To the guy that I moved over for, so he could get in front of me and gain five meters so he could sniff the backside of that […]
As the revolution in Kiev gets uglier and uglier, a video has emerged of riot police making a detained protestor strip and stand naked in the snow while they photograph him.
“Let’s send Kobus to Mars,” is something you will never hear coming out of NASA mission controller’s mouth. The likelihood that a South African would be chosen to go to space, let alone to form a human colony on Mars is not very strong. But through private and public funding, the Mars One Expedition may do just that.
Facebook and Princeton University are embroiled in what will inevitably be the nerdiest standoff in history. A few Princeton epidemiologists got together, did some research, and published a paper on a very dubious premise: that if you look at Facebook as an infectious disease, then 80% of its hardcore users may well have “recovered” and abandoned the service by 2018.
Cecil Chao, the Hong Kong billionaire who oferred an initial sum of R650 million to the man who could win his daughters heart, has now doubled up his offer in a desperate attempt to ensure he has grandchildren.
When you buy a SAX Appeal magazine, not only are you donating money towards a good cause, you’re also ensuring that at least one student hasn’t spent the night binge drinking and getting dressed up in ridiculous outfits for nothing.
The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, otherwise known as the FLDS, is one of the most secretive and mysterious cults in America.
There’s nothing quite as fun as mocking old-school music videos. And Noel Gallagher does it best.

When was the last time you entered a corner shop that was locally owned and operated?
Andre Prinsloo and Ruhan Janse van Vuuren, the sculptors behind the newly-erected Nelson Mandela statue at the Union Buildings, have a secret hidden in Madiba’s ear. Because they weren’t allowed to put their signature on any part of the statue – they decided to take matters into their own hands – they put a little rabbit in there.
Just about how many times have you had to go to toilet mid-conversation with your buddy, only to sit on the toilet and feel desperately alone?
Chateau Marmont is one of Los Angeles’ most historic and mythical hotels. Far more than a B’n’B, this place houses some of Hollywood’s best kept secrets.
These photos were just sent to us from a driver on Cape Town’s N1. We’ll update with more info as it comes in. Check out the pics, below.
The Winter Olympics in Russia have not yet begun, but the scandals surrounding the games in Sochi started a while ago. One would think that hosting an international event in a country run by a despotic, homophobic regime would be a bad idea. Washington Post journo, Charles Lane seems to think so – he called the olympics a “corrupt quadrennial exercise.”
Snowden became one of the world’s most wanted men when he leaked information about the extent of the surveillance power of the NSA.
