Politika really needs to be congratulated for the rapidity with which it has settled right back into the role of a proper regime paper, not too loud and scandalous, but not too reliable either, at least as a source of factual information (by the same measure, of course, this makes it fantastic as a source of other types of information). The lead headline is increasingly a summary of what position good citizens are expected to advocate for the day, and occasionally one will run across gems like today's lead photo. It is captioned "applause for Milorad Dodik at the basketball game between Partizan and Barcelona in Belgrade." I see Dodik with his arm up and his pancetta out, but close as I look, I cannot see anybody applauding. Or is it visible only to the editors of Poltika, Tinkerbelle, and folks who really wish it?

Perhaps the photographer was a fan and took the photo from within the surely massed ranks of his supporters.
Boy oh boy, I can't stop laughing.
DOUGH DICK :)
I am told by a reliable source that "dough dick" is a colloquial term for those rolls of cookie dough that are sold to people too lazy to mix their own.
You mean something like this?

Despite my best intentions, this blog has become a repository of pecivo porn.
I like this one better: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pillsbury+dough+dick
One hand/pair of hands in action near the right margin, at approximately Dodik armpit level.
Wow, well observed!
The sound of one hand clapping?
