World: Vladimir Putin may run for Russian president again in 2012

  • We will look at the conditions in society, in the economy and at the political situation and will take an agreed decision in the interests of the country.
  • Russian Prime Minister (and bizarro Obama) Vladimir Putin • On his plans for 2012. Putin, who was term-limited, let his successor Dmitry Medvedev run in his place in 2008, but might want the job back come two years from now. Anything to keep this man famous. We don’t care if he wins. Make sure he remains famous. source

Music: Shoot us now: Black Eyed Peas performing at next year’s Super Bowl

  • We can only hope that someone has a wardrobe malfunction. Not because we’re looking to see Fergie naked or anything (no interest, really), but because it might assure that another terrible modern pop act won’t follow in the wake of the Black Eyed Peas as the Super Bowl’s musical performer. (We even know the perfect spot, too.) After Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake (who admittedly aren’t guilty of any cardinal musical sins themselves) unintentionally went naked in 2004, it’s been an old fogey’s game, most recently with The Who getting out of the retirement home to perform. We’re not sure what we dislike more – old rock acts performing years after their irrelevancy, or newer pop acts that simply suck. Call us when you get the Arcade Fire and Vampire Weekend, Super Bowl. source
