Hello, der er morgenpost og det er rart. Lean back og læs, der er gode sager i dag:

"Breasts are an impressive network of milk glands, ducts and sacs, all suspended from the clavicle in twin masses held together by fibrous connective tissue. But a mounting body of evidence suggests that they pose a serious challenge in nearly all corners of competition. Gymnasts push themselves to the brink of starvation to avoid developing them. All sorts of pro athletes have ponied up thousands of dollars to surgically reduce them. For the modern athlete, the question isn't whether breasts get in the way -- it's a question of how to compete around them."
En ret fin artikel på ESPN om et problem ved at dyrke sport, jeg som mand aldrig har haft. Men det bliver ikke desto mindre grebet ordentligt an, læs selv med her.

Terence Koh (til højre på billedet) er en rimelig underlig kunstner, der rigtig godt kan lide hvid. Jeg kan huske, jeg engang læste, at han på en tur til Istanbul havde besluttet sig for ikke at sige noget og derfor forblev tavs på hele turen. Anyway, den gode fotograf The Selby (som er blevet lidt kedeligt på det seneste, IMO), har været på besøg hos Terence Koh og hans partner Garrick Gott i NYC. De bor ... specielt.

"Curtains came down today on the 163-year-old telegram service in the country - the harbinger of good and bad news for generations of Indians - amid a last minute rush of people thronging telegraph offices to send souvenir messages to family and friends. A large people, many of them youngsters and first timers, turned up at four telegraph centres in the Capital which have almost been forgotten in recent years to send a message to their loved ones on the last day of the service."

Nu kan man ikke længere sende telegrammer i Indien. Kommunikationsformen er blevet lukket efter at have forbundet folk i det store land i 163 år. Artikel fra India Today.

"Soon as I thought we had wrapped up ‘Watch the Throne,’ I had two records, I had “Holy Grail” and I had “Oceans.” I played those records for Kanye and he was like, ‘NO! Those have to go on ‘Watch the Throne’!” So we spent four days arguing about those records, and I was explaining to him why it wasn’t right for this project. I had this whole idea of making this album called ‘Magna Carta Holy Grail’ — the name came later. Literally arguing for four days — not like fighting. Well, there was some pushing at one point, but not between us."
"When did this trend for having half your bum hanging out begin? And who do we blame? Rihanna and her hot pants? A tabloid media in which breasts have been dissected and divvied up - side boob, under-boob, nipple slip, etc., etc. - to a point they are no longer risqué enough for the young to care about? Pressure from this generation of impetuous, porn-ified males we’re supposedly raising?"
Jeg kan love dig for, at jeg har meget på hjerte. Men det kommer jeg ikke til at blande ind i min karriere. Det er ikke professionelt interessant for mig at udtale mig om ting. At jeg selv mener en masse i det private … fair snak. Men den snak kan jeg tage med nogle venner.
