At a fasionshow last week in Japan, ‘models’ were wearing … diapers.

Yes, diapers.

With this show, organisator Kiyoko Hamada wanted to take the diaper for seniors out of the taboo atmosphere.

”A lot of people are ashamed of needing diapers for seniors. There is no need to. They should be able to talk about it without feeling stupid.”

In the catalogue of the organisator visitors can have a look at the different diaper models, from the simplest one untill the ‘luxury antibacterial diaper’.

In Japan, 25% of the population is 65 or older. Because of this fact, more and more people are in need of diapers. The market of senior diapers in Japan gains up to 110 billion yen every year (= seven hundred and ten million euros or approximately one thousand million dollars).

If you have billions of dollars… the rules don’t seem to matter for you.

This is what Russion billionaire Andrei Melnichenko must have thought when he blocked the harbour of Nice for several hours with his boat called ‘A’ (after his wife Alexandra).

The founder of the MDM Bank decided to try out his new yacht- a yacht from 119 meter that is- designed by Philippe Starck .

Nobody could enter the harbour. They had to wait untill the harbour was free again because Lenny Kravitz was giving a concert for Andrei’s guests…

31 Year old Tim Steiner from Switserland soled the skin of his own… back. He has a big (beautiful) tattoo on his back, put on there by Wim Delvoye- who is known for his work ‘Cloaca’ (don’t google it…) and for tattooing pigs. The skin soled for 150,000 euros to an unkown collector.

The buyer has the right to show the ‘work’ for 3 to 4 weeks every year.  The profits will go to the gallery, the artist and the tattooed man.

When Steiner dies, his skin of his back goes to the collector.

Ivan Oechov’s drunken high jump in Lausanne

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

Except for drunken presidents, the Russians now also have… drunken sportsmen.

22 Year old high jump athlete Ivan Oechov was so drunk on a contest in Lausanne a couple of days ago that he couldn’t really see where the bar was, with the result that he started his jump way to early and ended on the landing mat under the bar.

His coach had to escort him from the field.

Apparently he is supposed to be quite good: his record is 2m39cm.
