The Beijinger just posted 24 pictures of Louis CK at work on Sunday night. Go check it out (we sample a few after the jump). In the above, we can only assume he was delivering his Chinese potbelly joke, which RFH described thusly in yesterday's review:
Of course, though, China is changing, as Louis kept remarking: “We [Americans] think you’re all peddling bicycles, wearing little hats… it’s nothing like what we think.” But “I keep seeing this guy: [flips up shirt to reveal proud potbelly].” Read more »
Three views to an accident. This past Friday, we told you about a police car utterly demolished under the wheels of a tourism bus in Beijing, and reported that there was one fatality. Apologies for being late with this update, but according to China Daily via Sina, published Saturday: The officer who was killed worked in... Read more »Read more »
Two weeks ago, Alicia wondered what it would be like to fall through a sinkhole. We now have an answer, thanks to a man in Guilin, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, who last Thursday had the misfortune of sitting in a minibus just before it was engulfed by a hole opened out of the earth's stygian depths: Read more »
It’s relatively safe to assume very few people in Guangdong care about the weather in Ukraine and Poland. Perhaps some soccer fans would rue a game getting postponed due to thunderstorms, but more likely, I think, they’d be relieved by the fact that they can go to sleep instead, since games are played at the...

We don’t know who this... Read more »Read more »
Last week, we saw a dog nurse three kittens. Not to be outdone, a hero bitch in Shangdong province has taken it upon herself to nurse four of a much larger species of cat. On the same day that she gave birth to two puppies, Laifu was asked (forced?) by wildlife zoo attendants in Rongcheng to nurse four white tiger cubs whose mother, Afang, had abandoned them.

“The Great Fog of Wuhan”; smog? (image via NBD.com); blamed on straw-burning. [Xinhua] It’s been a slow Monday. We’ll pick it up for the nighttime. Here’re your Monday links. Read more »
Louis CK played a show in Beijing last night; he spoke for just over an hour. Here’s what we can’t talk about – the organizers. Even though they were in season and up on stage last night, handing out the shout-outs like skittles, after midnight, they became as shy as hedgehogs and asked us not to even mention their names.
