f you, bieber!

Justin Bieber has reached the inevitable "diva" phase of his career. A radio host in Australia said Bieber was "a thoroughly nice bloke" until "our floor manager was directing him to where he was about to perform and [Bieber] turned aroud and said to him, 'Don't ever fucking touch me again'." The Aussies were shocked until a member of Bieber's crew informed them, "he tells us that all the time." The radio host says he thought to himself, "Maybe someone needs to drag you aside and give you a bit of a slap," so, um, maybe the freak-out was justified. Anyway, Biebs says it's all lies. (via)

Flickr wizard Eric Fischer mashes together the online photo management site with geotags, Picasa, OpenStreetMap and a healthy dash of code to show how people take photos in each city, and at what speed they were moving when taking those photos.  (via)

ronaldo :: underwear :: pissed

cristiano ronaldo from real madrid and some other soccer players took some sessy pictures for annie leibovitz and vanity fair. on the cover, they combined a sessy underwear picture of ronaldo with a less sessy underwear picture of didier drogba, a rival player who plays for chelsea FC. as is standard practice, different pictures from different photoshoots were combined to create the final composite cover image, but ronaldo is pissed that he looks to be standing in his undies next to his enemy. quit your bitching ronaldo.

wal-marchitecture

this is the best article written about wal-mart that i have ever read. it doesn't stoop to demonizing, and seeks instead to suggest that wal-mart and the architectural designer both have much to learn from each other

more fun than the waterfalls

A British artist is putting 60 pianos in New York's parks and public spaces this summer - to be played by anyone passing by.

And even those who don't tickle the ivories can enjoy the installation: Musical luminaries like Alicia Keys may pound out a tune or two.

"I just imagine that there's going to be a lot of people ready to express themselves," said artist Luke Jerram, who has launched the "Play Me, I'm Yours" program in cities from London to Sao Paulo since 2008.

"The pianos act as a blank canvas for others' creativity."

Starting June 21, the uprights will be scattered all around the city, including Times Square, the Coney Island Boardwalk and quieter spots like Brooklyn's Fort Greene Park and the Bronx's Van Cortlandt Park.
