Adidas bans ‘44’ on German shirt
https://www.theguardian.com/football...football-shirt

Adidas has banned football fans from customising the German national shirt with the number 44 due to its alleged resemblance to the symbol used by Nazi SS units during the second world war.

The Schutzstaffel (SS), a paramilitary organisation of Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich, was tasked with carrying out the industrialised genocide of Jewish people across Europe.

Concerns over the jerseys were originally raised by historian Michael König, who said the kit’s design was “very questionable”.

Tàu hông kiêng “44” mà Đức lại phải kiêng. Hông cho in số 44 lên áo thì hai thằng bận hai cái áo số 4 đứng xáp vô.

green onions ignite voter anger in South Korea’s elections
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...cost-of-living

Yoon said he had described as “reasonable” the store’s 875 won (51p) price tag for a bundle of green onions. The actual retail price is three to four times higher, hovering at 3,000-4,000 won in recent weeks.

It is not just the price of green onions that has seen significant rises. The price of agricultural products in March increased by more than 20% from the same month last year. The price of apples increased by nearly 90%, marking the largest one-year-jump since 1980.

Nevertheless, opposition candidates have used green onions as props during campaign speeches to draw attention to Yoon’s hapless attempt to court the average man and woman on the Seoul omnibus.

Hyun Jung, 36, said she hadn’t initially thought about the green onion issue, “but after I heard about the ban, I bought a green onion hairband and I’m determined to wear it on election day”.

Designer Nancy Gonzalez sentenced to prison for smuggling crocodile and python handbags
https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/...ython-handbags

Nancy Gonzalez was arrested in 2022 in Cali, Colombia, and later extradited to the US for running a sprawling multiyear conspiracy that involved recruiting couriers to transport her handbags on commercial flights to high-end showrooms and New York fashion events – all in violation of US wildlife laws.

Prosecutors countered that Gonzalez had acquired great wealth and an opulent lifestyle, which contrasted with the couriers she recruited to smuggle her merchandise into the US. The couriers were instructed to say that the items were gifts for their relatives if they were asked any questions by customs agents.

According to the testimony of her co-defendants and former employees, ahead of important fashion events, Gonzalez, described as a micromanager, would recruit as many as 40 passengers to carry four designer handbags each on commercial flights. In this way, prosecutors estimate that she smuggled goods that fetched as much as US$2m in the US.

French post office releases baguette stamp
https://www.theguardian.com/artandde...baguette-stamp

The stamp, which costs €1.96, depicts a baguette decorated with a red, white and blue ribbon. It has a print run of 594,000 copies.

According to the Parisian shop Le Carre d’encre, which sells it, the stamp has a “bakery scent”. The ink used on the stamps contains microcapsules which provide the fragrance.

“And the difficulty for us is to apply this ink without breaking the capsules, so that the smell can then be released by the customer rubbing on the stamp.”

Picassos in women’s toilet
https://www.theguardian.com/artandde...ibition-ruling

The Ladies Lounge, which opened in 2020, saw women who entered the space pampered by male butlers and served champagne while surrounded by some of the museum’s finest pieces of art.

Picassos were among the artworks previously hanging in the museum’s Ladies Lounge, a women-only area created by Kaechele which included, as part of the artist’s intent, men’s experiences of exclusion.

Kaechele said in March she was “absolutely delighted” the case had made it to the tribunal, after a complaint by Sydney man Jason Lau.
“The men are experiencing Ladies Lounge, their experience of rejection is the artwork,” she said at the time.

Tasmania’s Museum of Old and New Art has relegated part of its Picasso collection to a female toilet cubicle, after a court ruling that it must admit men to a female-only exhibition.

“It’s Pablomatic”.

The Man with 1000 Kids
https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-r...ound-the-world

Last year Meijer was ordered by a Dutch court to stop, having been found to have fathered as many as 600 children in the Netherlands since 2007. Some mothers of his offspring – based as far away as Australia – believe the true number globally is closer to 1,100. Moreover, they don’t believe that Meijer has stopped.

But Meijer’s impact was not confined to the Netherlands. When Australian couple Laura and Kate (not their real names) wanted to start a family, they turned to Cryos, the world’s largest sperm bank. From more than 1,000 international donors, they selected Meijer, listed under a pseudonym.

Half-siblings have stumbled upon one another at playgrounds, seeding fears of incest in later life.

Sikh prayer at Republican convention
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...armeet-dhillon

Harmeet Dhillon’s Monday-night Sikh prayer at the Republican national convention is just one sign of the difficulties Donald Trump and Republicans have in selling a more diverse version of Trumpism to the party’s base.

Social media posts following Dhillon’s prayer indicated that some far-right Trumpists had been polarized by the sight of a non-Christian form of religious devotion on the convention stage in Milwaukee.

Perhaps the earliest response to Dhillon’s prayer came from white nationalist and antisemitic activist Nick Fuentes, who said of the prayer in his live stream of the convention’s first night: “This is blasphemy. This is total blasphemy. Oh, fuck off. What a joke.”

In his post-stream summary, Fuentes, who leads the so-called “Groyper” movement under the slogan “Christ is King”, added that “Jesus Christ needs to be front and center,” and said: “Jesus saved Trump’s life on Saturday and no one wants to give him credit at this convention.”

Fuentes’s acolytes followed suit. As the prayer was ending, an X account associated with the Fuentes-aligned “America First” website posted: “RNC promotes blasphemy and Sikh idolatry moments after Lutheran benediction.”

The far-right podcaster and internet personality Stew Peters took a similar line on X, posting: “Day 1 of the RNC was complete with satanic chants and multiple prayers to FALSE GODS.”

Japan cracks down on use of rideable electric suitcases
https://www.theguardian.com/world/ar...k-down-tourism

Two major Japanese airports have already asked travellers not to ride motorised suitcases within their facilities, according to Kyodo news agency, while police are urging domestic retailers to warn customers of the strict laws concerning their use.

In recent years motorised luggage, similar to children’s scooters but powered by lithium-ion batteries, have become more common among travellers, while also being popularised by celebrities like Paris Hilton and Shilpa Shetty.

According to Kyodo, Japan currently classifies the electric suitcases, which are popular in the rest of Asia, as “motorised vehicles that can be ridden on roads only with the required safety equipment and a driving licence”.

In June, a Chinese woman in her 30s, studying in Japan, was referred to prosecutors for driving without a licence, after she allegedly rode a three-wheeled suitcase on a sidewalk in Osaka on 31 March, according to Osaka Prefectural Police.

Under Japan’s traffic laws, the woman’s suitcase, which can travel up to 13km an hour, is categorised as a “motorised bicycle”, the same as some mopeds. The police reiterated to the public in June that licenses are required for such mobile luggage.

In July, a boy from Indonesia rode a motorised suitcase past pedestrians along a street in Osaka’s bustling Dotonbori shopping district, according to Kyodo, which said his family was surprised to learn that a driving licence was mandatory for such vehicles in Japan.

Botched Spanish church makeover (part 38)
https://www.theguardian.com/world/ar...rubim-startled

The attentions lavished on the Ermita de Nuestra Señora del Mirón, which was built in 1725 on the ruins of a romanesque and gothic church, have drawn comparisons to the infamous “Ecce Homo/Monkey Christ” restorationthat made headlines around the world 12 years ago.

For the online newspaper El Confidencial, the parallels were clear. “Another Ecce Homo, but with Cherubs?” asked its headline on Thursday. The paper had picked up on the concerns of a group, Soria Patrimonio (Soria Heritage), which had posted before-and-after pictures of the paint job on X, showing how the once white nave had been striped a dusky pink and its cherubim vividly, if crudely, freshened up.
