From Julius Malema's tantrums to President Zuma's plane trips, from Bakkies Botha's booting to Helen Zille's toyi-toyiing, it's been a big and busy year for news in the Rainbow Nation. Now comes the newsiest titbit of all: the new Madam & Eve annual hits the streets today. It's called The Pothole at the End of the Rainbow, and it features your favourite household maintenance executive, Eve Sisulu – now also a "Playmaid of the year" on the cover of the SA edition of Playboy Magazine – as well as Madam, Mother Anderson, and the usual crew of politicians, celebrities, and other leading South African icons and institutions.
