Deep inspection of school property
A not-so-much older principal of Mayville Primary School in the south of Johannesburg, was half in the soup after he had sex with a young schoolmistress, Amelia, among other places in a storage room, his office (on the desk) and the sick bay (nobody was even sick), according to Rapport.
The teacher is now obviously up to her head in the soup, after she was found guilty in a disciplinary hearing and fired. The headmaster? Erm, barely rapped over the “finger".

Longest breakfast run under the sun
An e-motorcycle, Roam Air, which was developed in Kenya and Stellenbosch, drove all the way from Nairobi to Stellenbosch in September, using only solar power as an energy source. The technology was developed by Stellenbosch engineers and technicians from Roam, a technology-driven electrical resources company. Part of the team were two fan vans with solar panels that helped with charging the motorbike batteries.
The riders were PhD candidate and researcher on the project, Stephan Lacock, and Masa Kituyi, one of the owners of Roam. Prof. Thinus Booysen, founder of the newly established Electric Mobility Lab, an institute in Stellenbosch that researches electric vehicles, says his lab could not have asked for a better way to kick off than to test, experience and celebrate African technology.
Fries, lies and video time
Kamala's team and followers can ridicule The Don's “work shift" in a McDonald's until they turn red and then blue again, but it is a marketing triumph that will impress exactly the right people. It caught Harris on the back foot. It was made for social media.

Today back in 1875
Considered by many music people to be the greatest piano concerto ever written, and certainly one of the most entertaining and beautiful in history, Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1 in B flat minor, was debuted on October 26, 1875, by famous pianist Hans von Bülow in Boston.
The main theme, like that of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony or Handel's Hallelujah choruses, is recognisable to just about any musical ear on earth. A sensitive and gentle man, Tchaikovksy was devastated when his friend, the pianist Nikolai Rubinstein, rejected it after Tchaikovksy had first played it for him. Among other things, he said the piece was “unplayable and worthless, fragmented, clumsy and vulgar".
Rubinstein lived long enough to eat his words. Here is Evgeny Kissin.
Art for the non-charitable heart
Because I myself love rummaging in charity and pawn shops, this is one of my favourite groups on Facebook: “Terrible Art in Charity Shops". Feel free to find it and join.
Now one immediately has to remark: Who decides what is good art anyway? The work in question may have changed the artist's life. Here are six works with the original captions on Facebook.
