"The orgasmic experience of sports commentating"
From Reuters: Nanjing pensioners react badly to Brazil exit. Excerpt:

An elderly Chinese man went on a rampage in Nanjing after Brazil's defeat to France in the World Cup quarter-finals last weekend.

The man ran amok in a city square hitting people with a stick and shouting" "The Brazilians lost! There is nothing worth watching! I don't want to watch any more games!"

The man was arrested by police but not until after he had grabbed a bystander and bit him "fiercely", the Nanjing Morning Post reported.

Another pensioner in China's former capital was similarly distraught and was arrested for running around the streets naked carrying a banner reading "Brazil Must Win".

Meanwhile in Beijing, San Lian Life Week editor Wang Xiaofeng (formerly Massage Milk) has posted an remix of football commentator Huang Jianxiang's impassioned commentary on the Italy - Australia match, mashed up with a rap metal song. You can listen to the mashup on this post on Wang's blog: Experience orgasm like a man

Classic Danwei posts
+ Another National Day by Geremie R. Barmé (2006.09): A translation by Geremie R. Barmé of interviews by Sang Ye of two individuals about their experiences before and after the revolution.
+ 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.
+ China's illegal yellow press (2005.05): On the left is the front page of 'Military News', a newspaper without masthead, contact phone number or any kind of publication licence (required by Chinese law). The paper was purchased on the Beijing subway for two yuan, which is relatively expensive, as most of the city's daily newspapers cost only half a yuan.
