Qingdao sex change unrelated to missing penis

It's been a tabloid kind of day. First Sohu reports on on a successful sex change operation performed in Qingdao on Chongqing native Lili. The story is here, complete with a photo of Lili putting on make up in her hotel bed. Lili apparently wants to become 'China's Harisu'. Harisu is a former Korean boy who is now a successful model and actress and looks like this:

The photo was stolen from Sohu's large collection of Harisu images here. Judging by the watermark. Sohu probably stole the image from the occasionally racy Sichuan Online, whose English page is here.

So what's the second tabloid story? Well, there's been a blurb and link on Sohu's front page for two days running with the headline 'Who cut off Li Wenxian's penis?' It's a rather inconclusive article about a man who was arrested and emerged from jail slightly insane and missing a part of his pecker. The story is here.

Classic Danwei posts
+ The top Chinese books in 2007 (2008.02): China Reading Journal (中华读书报), Yazhou Zhoukan (亚洲周刊), and City Pictorial (城市画报) choose mainland China's top books for 2007.
+ Men behind the Nanny (2005.04): The Publicity Department (formerly known as the Propaganda Department) has held a "forum" in Beijing to promote what it calls "news editorial staff management regulations (in testing phase)". These regulations appear to be same the set of rules earlier reported on Danwei of which the stated intent is to clear up corrupt journalistic practices.
+ Asimov Published, Interviewed in Beijing (2005.03): Cover story from this week's Book Review section of The Beijing News announces the publication of a Chinese translation of Isaac Asimov's complete Foundation series. Yup, the Beijing News has scored a fictional interview with "I, Asimov". They've been taking similar liberties recently in their entertainment sections, captioning photographs of celebrities with made-up quotes.
