ENTERTAINMENT: IZIKHOKHO SHOW - Jason & Senzo busted

Mdu Ntuli is the genius behind these cartoons which diss South African personalities from our favourite or maybe not so favourite after the World Cup soccer star Teko Modise to Generations first gay couple Senzo and Jason and Omo's very own Nkanyiso.

My favoutite cartoon out of all the one's created is the one about Senzo and Jason(no homo) which is hilarious and pokes the light side of the TV screen couple.

Enjoy.

The new Audi A1 – Sportiness and individuality in the compact class

Audi is introducing a whole new dimension to the premium compact class. The new Audi A1 is a dynamic and individual vehicle that condenses all of the virtues of the brand down to less than four metres – a design full of character, uncompromising quality and pioneering efficiency technologies. The agile chassis and powerful engines make the A1 the biggest news in the segment.

The Audi brand stands for automotive passion. With its agile chassis and powerful engines, the A1 is the sportiest car in its class, and this is readily apparent at first glance. The design is unique and modern. Styling cues placing the A1 in the Audi family include the side line with the distinctive roof arch, the coupe-like C-pillars, the large wheel wells and, of course, the front end with the typical single-frame grille.

The hood and rear hatch encompass the body; the tail lights are three-dimensionally moulded and present an unmistakable design, day or night. The interior of the A1 is also sporty and of high quality. Customers can customize numerous details to tailor the car to their personal tastes.

Audi’s latest model has a broad portfolio of advanced technologies on board; its infotainment system sets new standards in the segment. The A1 is the first premium automobile in the small compact class – a true, fully-fledged Audi.

The new Audi A1 is due for South African release in the first quarter of 2011.

Blacks becoming more wealthy

According to a daily broadsheet newspaper blacks are becoming more wealthy and are increasing their share in the stock market. Share ownership by previously disadvantaged South Africans is rising, according to a recent study by economists.co.za


According to Sowetanlive, some 36% of assets owned by South African individuals comprise shares listed on the JSE Securities Exchange.

Looking at the ownership of the JSE by segment including foreign ownership from 2000 to 2010, the study found that the biggest story in the last decade had been the explosion of foreign ownership of liquid South African assets.

“Along with many other emerging market countries foreign investment into the equity market has become very popular by foreign institutions,”

Black ownership had increased slightly during the period from 22% to around 23%. (Black here included Coloured, Indian and African, according to the researchers).

This is an indication of the growing capacity of more blacks becoming players in the stock market field which in previous times was dominated by white investors.
