From the Independent – last friday

A Russian tabloid has set the country abuzz with a report that Vladimir Putin is secretly preparing to marry a leggy 24-year-old gymnast, voted the most beautiful woman in Russia.

The little known paper Moskovsky Korrespondent reported a week ago that a reliable source had revealed that plans were underway for a wedding between Mr Putin and Alina Kabayeva, an Olympic gold medallist, which would take place on 15 June, a month after Mr Putin hands the Presidency to his successor, Dmitry Medvedev…

Ms Kabayeva, who was recently voted the most beautiful woman in the country by the readers of a Russian magazine, became a parliamentary deputy late last year after the pro-Putin United Russia party moved to include more young, attractive women in the Duma.

He might have a attitude to foreign policy more questionable even than that of Mr Bush, but we have to admire his taste in skilled ball manipulators. Alina Kabayeva previously on MoM

So many good things…..
11 years ago in London, 3 Contact Jugglers inspired me to start Multiball Contact Juggling: Em, Dimitri and Doug.
Here are 2 new videos from Em… after watching this clip, I think you can understand why.

Em will be running a workshop at the Sardinia Juggling Convention Moon will also be there, it looks like an amazing event – the rest of MoM are sad to miss it.
One more video after the fold.

Wes Peden, previously blogged here, asks the question ‘why is there not more innovation in the juggling scene?’

His … eloquent/arrogant… speech has generated huge response on youtube and rec.juggling

Highlights include:

BRING ME SOMETHING NEW!
BE MORE JAPANESE, K?
…

I’m not quite sure who he is talking to, but i agree with his sentiment. Lets see more awesome creative juggling!

There comes a point in everyone’s life, that you choose to dress from head to toe in spangly red lycra and climb inside a giant balloon in front of a TV audience of over a million people, to potentially suffer a very public ridicule from acerbic media moguls…
Well at least, I’ve come to that point in mine.

In an episode of shameless self promotion, I’ve put my new act, ‘The Balloonatic’ forward as part of the uber-media machine, Britain’s Got Talent. It should be appearing on this week’s episode

From Wikipedia

He juggled cigar boxes, hats, and a variety of other objects in what seems to have been a unique and fresh act, parts of which are reproduced in some of his films. Fields confined his act to pantomime, so he could play international theaters and overcome any language barriers. Fields toured several continents and became literally a world-class juggler and an international star.

You try telling the young people of today that, and they won’t believe you..

Yep – as regular MoM commenter MCP points out – we are posting ancient stuff. We found that we have over 150 half written drafts, time for some spring cleaning.
