Brangelina Team keeps getting warmer: Angelina bought her Fiance Brad Pitt a Hericopter and Flying Lessons, You go girl, Keep your Man!!

Angelina Jolie has bought her fiancé Brad Pitt a helicopter and flying lessons.

The 36-year-old actress apparently spent £1m on the aircraft and flying lessons for Brad Pitt to go with the parking spot they happened to have built onto their European property.

A source told The Sun: "They've had a helicopter pad installed in the grounds of their south of France home, Chateau Miraval.

"So Ange thought it would be nice to buy Brad a helicopter as a surprise present."

To and from Cannes

Apparently the pair, who are parents to six biological and adopted children, will be using the mode of transport to get to nearby events.

The insider continued: "In particular, they would like to be able to fly to and from Cannes.

"But even though Brad has his private pilot's licence, he still needs to take a few flying lessons - which he'll start straight away."

Meanwhile the couple finally seem to be putting any tension between Brad's ex-wife Jennifer Anistion and them in the past.

According to reports, the Friends actress sent them a £500 bouquet of flowers ahead of this week's Cannes Film Festival, to congratulate them on their engagement.

Brad had earlier sent her a case of his Chateau Miraval wine

Legendary Bretty White supports Obama

Betty White says she usually keeps her political views private but in this presidential election she strongly favours one candidate.

As the 90-year-old actress prepares to visit the Smithsonian Institution and National Zoo next week, White told The Associated Press she "very, very much favours" President Barack Obama in the election.

The Golden Girls star said on Friday she is very bi-partisan and has stayed away from politics her whole life. She usually never says who she is for or against because she doesn't want to turn off any of her fans.

White says in this year's election, she likes what Obama has done and "how he represents us".

Her comments come after Hollywood turned out at George Clooney's home to raise $15m for Obama's re-election, a record for a single fundraiser.

Are we truly free or we dom?

The reaction of South Africans was so overwhelming when Jessica and Tsidi posted their tweets and apologized; now it seems like it’s something that we will eat and wake up with it every day. One person does it and the next day someone else is doing it, are we truly free?

Once things published everyone one is doing it, take example with the gang rape, and how may article have been written about that since that story? It’s like people do things to be noticed or to be recognized, how the hell would you write something so stupid that can ruin your life just to be noticed?

Sometimes I sit and wonder if when will people wake up and start using what their saver gave them (which is brain).

I am sick and tired of people insulting other people and get away with that, easly.

There is no way that people will say things and apologized, justice must served… #Just saying

Councilor’s laptop tested for child porn

Police have confiscated the laptop used by a Western Cape DA councillor to establish whether he had loaded child pornography on it, The Times reported on Tuesday.

Police spokesperson Captain Mzikayise Moloi said the Swellendam council-owned laptop had been sent for tests.

The ANC laid a charge against the councilor on May 2, and asked the municipality to investigate claims that he watched child pornography at work.

"We are waiting for the outcome of the tests. There is an allegation that he loaded child pornography on the laptop, that is why the laptop has been seized," Moloi was quoted as saying.

The ANC last week claimed the allegations against the councillor had been reported to the council speaker and senior DA office-bearers, but that no action had been taken.

"Instead, the DA has been trying its utmost to sweep this sex scandal under the carpet," it claimed.

Themba Thebele, Overberg region ANC secretary said on Monday that despite several request for action to be taken against the councillor, municipal authorities had done nothing.

Swellendam mayor Nicholas Myburgh said the speaker's office was investigating the matter.

"[The councillor] will also get an opportunity to present his side," Myburgh said.

He said the councillor was still at work.

Beautiful Kim "Kimmy" Kardashian and the handsome Kanye West are talking marriage

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West "are talking marriage".

The couple, who went public with their romance in April are apparently "very serious" about making a commitment to each other and are ready to pick out rings.

A source told Us Weekly that the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star and the Watch The Throne rapper - who were friends for many years before they began dating - are more sure than ever about their relationship.

'Love each other'

Kim will even be joining the Grammy winner on his summer tour with Jay-Z.

The insider said: "She wants to be with him as much as possible. They really know and love each other."

Over the weekend, the 31-year-old reality TV regular jetted back from Washington, DC, where she was a guest at the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday, to be by Kanye's side for a Sunday performance of Broadway's Wicked musical.

She has been dating the 34-year-old music producer even though she is yet to finalise her divorce from NBA player Kris Humphries, who she split from last October following 72 days of marriage.

Julius Malema Series sucks leave a poor guy alone #justsaying

Julius Malema Series sucks leave a poor guy alone #justsaying

When is enough ever enough in the eyes of a public?

This Malema thing is turning into something I don’t know. If you’ve ever watch  a series of something, where things keep continuing, and pose a bit then start again but on a different angle, that’s how I see this whole thing now. Its Life there is no news without Him, and journalists are missing lot of good social stories because all they focus to is Malema. They are always watching each and every move he is making, that  gives him lot of power, because he knows that everyone care about what he is doing>

Have you ever see a dog waiting for its owner’s bone? Yhe I’ve seen that, and the way I see it it’s like that> It is like cameras and pens are always on, waiting for him to strike… Let’s see what im talking about.

1.     Julius said Mbeki and his people should leave it was around 2009 if I’m not mistaken, he was still friends with Zuma that time

2.     Julius said White people should go back where they come from

3.     Julius sang : Bulala ibhulu (kill the boer) song.

4.     Julius apologised to the public

5.     Julius calls Zuma that and that…. Blah blah blah

I know he is in the public eye and he makes news very interesting, but there are lot of things that journalist can write about, like people fighting for their live ect, and the good things that people of South Africa are doing right.

I like the guy, he is good at what he does but he is really getting every attention, what about the issues that also need attention?

I wish that we can get creative and write about things that matters. #justsaying

Sisi Uyanda arrested

Businesswoman and socialite Uyanda Mbuli has been arrested for violating a court order stopping her from having any contact with her husband Sisa Mbuli, reported Sowetanlive.co.za

According to the newspaper the former Mrs SA Globe was arrested by police at the house she used to share with her estranged husband in Midrand before they separated in January.

A source told Sowetanlive the arrest took place after Uyanda arrived at the house early on Thursday, leading to Sisa calling the police.

When police arrived at the house Uyanda was wearing a gown and told the police to wait outside as she was first going to change into clothes.

'Wearing a night gown'

"When she did not come out, the police went to fetch a female officer who came in and arrested her. She was wearing a night gown when she arrived at the police station, handcuffed," said the source.

According to Sowetanlive the spat between the couple started in February when Uyanda first obtained a protection order against her husband. She later reported her husband at the Midrand Police Station for the violation of that order.

"Yes Uyanda Mbuli was arrested at midday today (Thursday) for violating a court order," said a police spokesperson.

FHM model apologises for racist tweets

The FHM model who describes herself as a "glamorous blonde of Mediterranean nationality", has come under a storm of criticism after posting a tweet on Thursday that read: "Just, well took on an arrogant and disrespectful kaffir inside Spar. Should have punched him, should have".

When this raised the ire of her followers and fellow tweeters, Jessica replied: "Tweeted with anger after an incident last night. Forget it pls, I dnt stand still against sexual harassment, thats all."

'No surprise'

She took to her personal website to post an explanation of her actions, which reads: "I tweeted rather irresponsibly about an incident, using a harsh and unkind word about the gentleman who had confronted me with sexual remarks and sounds."

She also explains that she does not believe so many would be angered by her words if they had been there to witness her encounter with the "gentleman" in question. 

"It is no surprise that my comment has offended many people and for this, I am apologetic."

Jessica's Twitter retraction did not stem the barrage of angry and disbelieving replies she was receiving, and she fought back with: "Would u all stop! These are the kinds of people that land up raping young girls of our country! I wasn't going to let him get away with it."

Jessica, who refers to herself on her website as "a woman of very few words… My days revolve around being kind and projecting a kind nature", has since deleted her offensive tweet, as well as another angry post: "Highlight of my weekend? Almost punching an #Engen petrol assistant. No tolerance for rude African monkeys whatsoever!"

FHM title to be stripped?

A Twitter campaign has been started that calls on men's magazine FHM to strip Jessica of her FHM Models 2011 title.

Twitter user @RickyBynight wrote: "Motion to have@FHMSouthAfrica strip@JessicaLeandra of her 2011 Top 100 placing for being racist. All those in favour RT".

Paranoid Hitler had 'messiah complex

Adolf Hitler had a "messiah complex" and became increasingly obsessed with the perceived Jewish "enemy within" as World War II turned against Germany, according to a secret 1942 assessment unveiled on Friday.

The British intelligence report, which lay apparently unread from the war until its recent rediscovery, found that the Nazi dictator turned to "Jew-phobia" as the likelihood of defeat increased.

The wartime analysis, now made public by the University of Cambridge, was commissioned by social scientist Mark Abrams and written by his colleague Joseph MacCurdy, a Cambridge academic.

Abrams, a world-renowned pioneer of market research and opinion polling, worked with the BBC's Overseas Propaganda Analysis Unit and the Psychological Warfare Board during World War II.

"At the time that it was written, the tide was starting to turn against Germany," said Cambridge historian Scott Anthony, who led research into Abrams which resulted in the paper being unearthed in a family collection.

"In response, Hitler began to turn his attentions to the German home front.

State of mind

"This document shows that British intelligence sensed this happening.

"MacCurdy recognised that, faced with external failure, the Nazi leader was focusing on a perceived 'enemy within' instead - namely the Jews.

"Given that we now know that the 'final solution' was commencing, this makes for poignant reading."

Abrams thought that transcripts of Hitler's broadcasts could be close-read for propaganda and intelligence purposes, revealing hidden "latent content" and subconscious insights into the enemy's state of mind.

His work was fed directly into Allied counter-propaganda.

The newly re-aired analysis covered a radio speech Hitler gave on 26 April 1942.

"Its content would presumably reflect his morbid mental tendencies on the one hand and special knowledge available to him on the other," the opening lines said.

An earlier report found three such tendencies, termed "shamanism", "epilepsy" and "paranoia".

Worrying tendency

"Shamanism" referred to Hitler's hysteria and compulsion to feed off whipped-up crowds, which was in decline. MacCurdy's report pointed to the "dull flatness" of delivery in Hitler's broadcast.

The other two were developing characteristics.

"Epilepsy" covered his cold and ruthless streak, combined with a tendency to lose heart when ambitions failed. MacCurdy's analysis found Hitler's speech showed him to be "a man who is seriously contemplating the possibility of utter defeat".

"Paranoia" was the third and most worrying tendency, exposed through the dictator's "Messiah complex", in which Hitler thought he was leading a chosen people on a crusade against evil incarnate in the Jews, the paper said.

It notes an extension of the "Jew phobia" and says that Hitler now saw Jews not just as a threat to Germany, but as a "universal diabolical agency".

It is now known that weeks before the speech, senior Nazis had set plans in motion for the "final solution": The attempted extermination of the entire Jewish population.

Incarnation

"Hitler is caught up in a web of religious delusions," MacCurdy concluded.

"The Jews are the incarnation of evil, while he is the incarnation of the spirit of good.

"He is a god by whose sacrifice victory over evil may be achieved. He does not say this in so many words, but such a system of ideas would rationalize what he does say that is otherwise obscure."

The document has been added to an archive on Abrams' work held at Cambridge and is now available to researchers.

I know that the anonymity and ease of access of the internet make it a sheltered environment for all the ugliest sides of human nature. Faceless people can say what they like with no fear of censure or accountability, and what they like to say can sometimes be very ugly indeed. I was, however, left feeling uncomfortable at some of the outpourings of hate which greeted Sicelo Shiceka’s assumedly long and painful death. You would think that we were all celebrating the death of a serial killer! Sicelo Shiceka was not a serial killer. He was a bent politician. He abused the position of trust that he had been placed in and took what was not rightfully his. I certainly don’t think we should be building any statues in his honour, but it’s not like he was an apartheid minister or anything. And I do think we should all regret his passing. Obviously he will be mourned by his family and friends (and a lonely Swiss prison inmate). There are also many out there who still admire his contribution to the struggle. For others he was a brother in arms, a fellow soldier in the fight against an oppressive system. Unfortunately, through no-one’s fault but his own, for many of us he was no better than a common thief. So why should we all be saddened by his death? It has everything to do with how he lived. Our nation is at a critical point in its history. The government who freed us from oppression is very quickly making the transition from being liberators to being a nest of corrupt, self-enriching opportunists. And, for better or for worse, Sicela Shikeca was one of the worst examples of the trend. He was also exposed. The findings of the public protector left our government no choice but to remove him as a minister. And with that, he became an opportunity. This could have been the point where our leaders said “no more. This is not who we are going to be”. But they didn’t. I know he lost his ministerial job, but he was still an MP. Our government quietly removed him from the public eye, but he was never held accountable. He still drew his ministerial salary, and he was never charged. But he also became something else. Call it the elephant in the room if you will. Every day he spent as an MP was an embarrassment to his party. Every time there was a slow news day, journalists around the country could haul him out and shove him onto the front page and say “look- he’s still here. Getting paid. Not getting charged!” Every time his case was mentioned, it was harder for our leaders to pretend they were not condoning corruption. They would have had to have charged him eventually- thanks to the Public Protector, the evidence was out there. And a small battle in the war against corruption might have been won. Not any more. He’s dead. And with his death, those who would sweep his actions under the carpet are released from the growing pressure to act. If they feel it’s worth the effort, the spin doctors can even set to work turning him into a hero of the struggle again. And all of his colleagues will quietly note that there were no real consequences to his actions, and one or two more who were teetering on the brink will quietly slip their hands into the till. So for all of you screaming “yeehah!” and lining up to spit on his grave, stop being such dicks and think for a second. His death is far more of a loss to you than it is to his party.

Untitled: Feel it

Untitled: Feel it by Ncumisa Siko

Is this the freedom that so many South Africans died for?

Is this a freedom that our heroes, sheroes died for?

Lend me your ears Mzontsundu,

Lend me your ears mzantsi,

Let me heal the extra ordinary pain for my fellas,

Let’s talk about it, Let me show you my veins through,

Through the world we live in today.

Let my anger flow, let my imagination free my soul

Let my pen free my mind through the words I speak

Bloodshed, secrets unkept and hands shakes,

Fresh minds were born, truth revealed, and peace was made.

Truth to be told, our minds were shaken,

Past forgotten, equality took place, color or my skin didn’t matter, many voted, discrimination was buried, and Mzantsi was born, new nation was reformed.

Few years later

Deja  vu happened, life opposition took place.

Humanity struggle,

While new born introduced, people screaming viva, dancing on the streets

Enemy took over

Drugs became daily lives, teenage pregnancy ruled the nation,

Murder, rape, school dropouts became the purpose for existence..

What happened to the rainbow nation?

What happened to the blood that was shed?

Is this the same nation that legendaries fought for?

Come of freedom fighters,

Rise rise be awaken, speak out

While you are sleeping, Tornado came and swept all the humanity,

Shaken, taken and stolen the victory that once belonged to us.

While you were, Predators imprisoned the once so called Democracy

While you were sleeping

Anger reigned, ragged the freedom, that remind the anti-apartheid

That keeps replaying in the hearts of the freedom writers.

Rise freedom fighters and raise your hand where everybody can see,

Raise it and shout “I AM FREE”, you are free, we are free,
