King Robbo nach 3 Jahren Koma verstorben


Der englische Graffiti Veteran King Robbo ist heute (31.07.2014) nach einem 3jährigen Koma im Krankenhaus verstorben. Das vermelden unsere Quellen am späten Donnerstag Abend.

Robbo gehörte zur alten Schule der englischen Graffitiszene, er hat im Jahr 1985 seinen ersten Zug gemalt und der “Merry Christmas” Train (gemalt mit DRAX) aus dem Jahr 1988 hatte einen riesigen Medienrummel in England zur Folge.

Peaches Sold as Sexy Butts

In China, vendors are putting panties on their peaches, inspired by the upcoming Qixi Festival, which is like Valentines Day.

Making a parody will soon become legal in the UK


When it comes to the right to take the mickey out of famous songs, movies or books, the UK has always cast envious eyes toward the US. That's because a Brit couldn't parody something unless they'd been given direct permission from the creator or paid for a license. That meant for most people, making a parody was legally impossible, and saw several famous instances of works being pulled from YouTube. Thankfully, that's all set to change on October 1st, when the Copyright and Rights in Performances (Quotation and Parody) Regulations 2014 are set to come into force.
