Jordan 'late show' dropping april 30th

Guests on the Late Show with David Letterman in the 90s typically donned lounge suits for the occasion, but that just ain’t MJ. Maybe it’s because choosing those kinds of threads isn’t his strong suit, or maybe it’s because Nike paid him a lot, or maybe the man is just a born swag lord. Point is, though, His Airness did wear some crazy ass bright red nuclear waste clean-up scrubs/B-Ball training warm-up ensemble over a blue polo shirt when he made his late night television debut, and we loved it. Jordan Brand must have dug it too, because they’re paying tribute to the moment with this new Air Jordan 1. Exquisitely transposing the sheeny tracksuit onto a shoe, red leather dominates the upper with the polo T-shirt tongue poking out through the middle.
The Air Jordan 1 High ‘Late Show’ arrives on April 30 at Jordan retailers, including
Sneaker Politics.

For the love of ink

The ink culture has been existing for over 5 000 years and tattoos have been marks to identify and signify many different things in many different cultures. They also have their share of misunderstanding. From being banned in many work environments, to being deemed socially unacceptable in many parts of the world, With that said tattoos have a very large history and their purpose varied from culture to culture. With all the negative and positive factors around Tattoos they are  still an amazing individual piece of art.

Many tattoos serve as rites of passage, marks of status and rank, symbols of religious and spiritual devotion, decorations for bravery, sexual lures and marks of fertility, pledges of love, punishment, amulets and talismans, protection, and as the marks of outcasts, slaves and convicts. In the Philippines certain tribal groups believe tattoos have magical qualities, and help to protect their bearers. Most traditional tattooing in the Philippines is related to the bearer's accomplishments in life or rank in the tribe.

There are so many reasons why we choose to wear tattoos,  we wear them  for artistic, cosmetic, sentimental/memorial, religious, and magical reasons, and to symbolize our belonging to or identification with particular factions, including criminal gangs or a particular ethnic group or law-abiding subculture. There is a deeper explanation to some tattoos around the world, some Māori still choose to wear intricate moko on their faces. In Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand, the yantra tattoo is used for protection against evil and to increase luck.

There are so many reasons why we put ink on our bodies and some reason are not to be shared with others, but tattoes are now worn as any other accessory one would wear. They are not a call for negative remarks nor are they a call for inappropriate behaivior. We wear them because we love them and in a sense they are a form of expression, which is our basic human right. freedom of expression. So to everyone who is inked take pride in your ink and live life as you please. be free to be inked. for the love of ink.
For real though!!!

Time to utilize what we have.

Today I was chilling with the NAETO World mag team and we had a conversation that really unsettled me. A conversation about my township Soweto. Well Soweto,s youth I fear were we are headed. Our youth has gotten used to experting thing done and given for us that when they are here we know not what to do with them.

The biggest township in the world has a lot of facilities but they are not used. Firstly I will talk about swimming facilities, how many swimming pools do we have around Soweto? If you don't know well I'll let you know , there are 8 swimming facilities in soweto. And with that stated how many swimming teams do we have in Soweto? Then we go to the eco parks facilities built all around Soweto. How many are used for their correct purpose? Then there is the Soweto cricket oval. This facility is here for us to use but do we have a cricket league? Or are we still considering it "a white sport" ?

I am only naming a few facilities that are here but are not used to shape our community and the future our kids. We are letting good facilities rot and go beyond repair because we are complaining about not enough funds. But then again who will fund a development project that is non existent. We need to do a lot for ourselves before we look at other people . My main concern here is that we have gotten used to expert things done for us that we do not do anything for ourselves.

I say it us time to start doing the best we can do for ourselves before we can look outside. A better tomorrow will not come for a foreign land but from within us. Its time to support each other and develop each other .

For real though!!!

Mall of africa

Mall of Africa opens on 28 April

Developed on a scale beyond anything the country has known by leading South African property developer and investor Atterbury, the iconic new Mall of Africa is set to open in less than a month, on 28 April 2016.

Southern Africa’s largest single-phase shopping centre development to date, the R5-billion Mall of Africa, is a 130,000sqm super-regional mall that sets a new benchmark for shopping centres on the continent.

Commenting on the Mall of Africa development, Louis van der Watt, CEO of Atterbury says: “In line with the Atterbury vision to create working, shopping and entertainment spaces for everyone to live to their full potential, the development of this breath-taking shopping and leisure destination introduces an unmissable, unmatched retail experience. Mall of Africa’s exceptional scale, design, location and retail mix places it at the forefront of development.”

Van der Watt adds: “The development has enhanced the diversity of the retail sector in South Africa, changed Gauteng’s skyline and stimulated the economy.”
Mall of Africa is co-owned by two leading South African property companies. JSE-listed real estate capital growth fund Attacq Limited holds the commercial development rights to Waterfall and owns 80% of the Mall of Africa. Atterbury Property Developments owns 20% of Mall of Africa and is responsible for the Mall of Africa development project, on behalf of Attacq.

At 130,000sqm, it is the largest single-phase shopping mall development in South Africa. Mall of Africa will feature over 300 retailers, restaurants, entertainment and services, all within a single exceptional development. It also has all amenities that any shopper may need. Atterbury Asset Managers is responsible for Mall of Africa’s asset management for its co-owners.

Atterbury began the construction of Mall of Africa nearly three-and-a-half years ago, on 28 October 2012.
