Eskom is a South African electricity public utility, established in 1923 as the Electricity Supply Commission (ESCOM) by the government of South Africa in terms of the Electricity Act (1922). It was also known by its Afrikaans name Elektrisiteitsvoorsieningskommissie (EVKOM). The two acronyms were combined in 1986 and the company is now known as Eskom. Eskom represents South Africa in the Southern African Power Pool.
The utility is the largest producer of electricity in Africa, is among the top seven utilities in the world in terms of generation capacity and among the top nine in terms of sales.
Eskom operates a number of notable power stations, including Kendal Power Station, and Koeberg nuclear power station in the Cape Province, the only nuclear power plant in Africa. The company is divided into Generation, Transmission and Distribution divisions and together Eskom generates approximately 95% of electricity used in South Africa.
Due to the South African government's attempted privatisation of Eskom in the late 1990s, Eskom's requests for budget to build new stations were denied. President Thabo Mbeki said in December 2007 that this was an error, and it is now adversely affecting the South African economy.

In 1982, Leon was approached by Decibel Records to compile a series of sports songs and his first record, Leon Schuster sold 100,000 units.

Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma (born 12 April 1942) is the President of South Africa,elected by parliament following his party's victory in the 2009 general election.
Zuma is the President of the African National Congress (ANC), the governing political party, and was Deputy President of South Africa from 1999 to 2005. Zuma is also referred to by his initials JZ and his clan name Msholozi. Zuma became the President of the ANC on 18 December 2007 after defeating incumbent Thabo Mbeki at the ANC conference in Polokwane. Zuma was also a member of the South African Communist Party (SACP), briefly serving on the party's Politburo until he left the party in 1990. On 20 September 2008, Thabo Mbeki announced his resignation after being recalled by the African National Congress's National Executive Committee, following a conclusion by Judge Nicholson of improper interference in the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), including the prosecution of Jacob Zuma for corruption.
Zuma has faced significant legal challenges. He was charged with rape in 2005, but was acquitted. In addition, he fought a long legal battle over allegations of racketeering and corruption, resulting from his financial advisor Schabir Shaik's conviction for corruption and fraud. On 6 April 2009, the National Prosecuting Authority decided to drop the charges, citing political interference.

That's because CD's like this one spare you from all the charred topping, tinie bobbing,
disposable happy horseshit that brings up the bile to the back of my neck
I have no time or tollerance for shitty whack acts like that, I wouldn't piss on their CD's to put out a fire
I'm tired of all those lame ass tame ass, prefabricated and sorry excuses for singers and musicians who don't
write their own songs
What the world needs now is a musical revolution
We need some rock, we need something that has balls
we need something with substance, depth, something with soul, some edge, some passion, some power
Shit if it's going to be mellow fuck man it had better have something, it had better mean something
I'm telling you
You gotta hit 'em with something hard
I'm so fucking tired of all that shit that I'm hearing on the radio
Wha What you gonna do,
We're gonna have fun just me and you
Everyay guy you'll find a way
To bring a smile to my face
I like the things that you do,
And love will make us feel alright
I like the way you move while you dance
Now give me a chance
Fantasy we can have together
Fantasy you can make me wonder
I just want to spend me time close to you
We can dance together
and get into the groove
Fantasy you feel my body
Fantasy we're gonna party
You're the key, boy to my fantasy
Fantasy all night in motion
Fantasy you feel my passion
Everytime you play the game of fantasy
Wha what you gonna do
to make us happy from not feeling blue
I like the way you move while you dance
Hang around and I'm paranoid
I can't help but doubt
but I don't know what the people know
I want something to count
just stay where you are
I'm right behind you
stay where you are
if someone's looking
stay where you are
I might not be the one, that's true
but I'm trying, don't you know
Rattle coins in a coffee can
you shut me on and off
turn around, turn around
they're burning hotels down
so stay where you are
I'm right behind you
stay where you are
I'm always looking
stay where you are
I might not be the one, that's true
but I'm trying, don't you know
don't you know
don't you know
don't you know
don't hang on
but don't let go
don't aim high
This is the real deal... just open your mind...
you can find we've always been here
most of the time.
But since the real deal, just nobody to find
most of the time...
You just open your mind... you just open your mind... You just
open your mind...
You can find, we found... we found... we found... we found... we
found...
This is the real deal... just open your mind...
you can find we've always been here
most of the time,
but you'll see that we can make it if you dance with me,
and in life you can't take it but you can be free...
This is the real deal... yeah, the real deal... this is the real
deal
Step right up, hurry hurry, get your tickets now,
before your vision gets hurt don't ask me how...
Cause anybody shaking just make you smile,
and i got a hundred reasons that will drive you wild...
Here we go again, I know exactly what's coming don't tell me that is isn't how it seems
I see all the tell-tale signs that you're running, it's obvious what all this means
You're expression fuels my depression
Why does this always happen to me
You look away, I've got nothing to say
You're apology is so short of sorry
This is our breakup talk she broke the news when you broke for your walk
She said; Lets not make this harder than it has to be
About a weeks gone by you're with some other guy I'm feeling lied to and a little betrayed,
I guess your words don't mean much when you're feeling his touch
Do you remember any of the promises that you made
You cover up with lies talks filled with sighs and you're thinking I don't have a clue
But I'm onto you
This is our breakup talk she broke the news when you broke for your walk
She said; Lets not make this harder than it has to be
This is our breakup song lets finish this so we can carry on
She said; It was never you it was always me
It Was Always Me!
So Give me a second so I can take you in
'Cause I know I'll probably never get to see you again
'Cause I've never seen anything as cold as that stare
I'm sorry for wearing my heart on my sleeve
I'm sorry I bailed I didn't want you to leave
I'm sorry you kept it all held inside
I'm sorry that everything that you had has died
This is our breakup talk she broke the news when you broke for your walk
She said; Lets not make this harder than it has to be
This is our breakup song lets finish this so we can carry on
She said; it was never you it was always me
Uh oh, I had no idea she'd be here tonight
Lets go we should bail before she tries to start a fight
And we swore we'd never let it get this way
No more this is going to end today
Regret seems to be the reoccurring theme
Wanna forget and pretend you were just a bad dream
Don't try to make your exit before I say my goodbyes so you'll never forget this day!
This pain is real unlike you
You were always such a fake
If I could give it all back, I'd give it all back
You were always such a mistake
This pain is real unlike you
You were always such a fake
If I could go back to the day I never knew you
You were always such a mistake
Here's your stuff, there's the door
He's waiting for you
Save your tears, there not real
I saw right through you from the start
So you can have our year
But I'll take back my heart
This pain is real unlike you
You were always such a fake
If I could give it all back, I'd give it all back
You were always such a mistake
This pain is real unlike you
You were always such a fake
If I could go back to the day I never knew you
You were always such a mistake
Keep your apologies
(All I hear is noise)
While your falling apart
(I'll maintain my poise)
I know you miss me
This pain is real unlike you
You were always such a fake
If I could give it all back, I'd give it all back
You were always such a mistake
This pain is real unlike you
You were always such a fake
If I could go back to the day I never knew you
