Arbetsmiljö - inget problem

Ibland kan man höra talas om problem med arbetsmiljön. Just nu kan jag själv inte klaga, några dagar i Spanien med AIK:s damlag gör att resten av vintern/förvåren känns uthärdlig.
Ett bra hotell, Albir Garden (ovan), en bit utanför Benidorm, sol och två träningspass med fotbollsdamerna och bara lite ivägskickande av bilder är inte en allt för betungande arbetsbörda.
Det enda som stör är att det tar slut allt för snabbt, redan imorgon, torsdag, är det dags att åka hem. Sedan väntar bandyfinal i Uppsala på lördag och upptaktsmöte för damfotbollen på Operakällaren på måndagen.

Swimmer stripped of record as she tries to keep her boobs concealed

Swedish swimming star Therese Alshammar's attempts to keep her breasts concealed have cost her a world record.
On March 17, the 31-year-old hottie (check out her body here) who was once voted Sweeden's sexiest woman set the record in the 50m butterfly. She posted a time of 25.44sec, which was 0.02 of a second better than the record she set in Barcelona in June, 2007.
However, the former Olympic medalist was stripped of the record. FINA has a rule which mandates that swimmers can only wear one suit. Officials say swimmers sporting two high-tech suits have an unfair advantage as there is greater compression and flotation.

Alshammar was wearing two when she set the record. The idea was to keep her ta-tas covered up. Her suit was uni-sex so it wasn't quite cut for her body. As well, these suits are skin tight and some can become almost see-through when wet.

"I have obviously not understood the rules of the Australian championships. I was wearing a unisex suit which does not cover my chest completely so I need to wear an old cut-down suit underneath. I thought it was a modesty suit. It's just so I don't fall out the side, to feel more comfortable."

- Alshammar in The Australian

The meet she set the record in was in Australia. The Aussies have a rule allowing "modesty suits," but it only allows for bikini briefs.

"I thought a modesty suit would be a modesty suit," Alshammar told Channel 10 television. "I would almost claim that's a bit sexist saying that the men can cover their private parts up with briefs and women can only also wear briefs.

"I would totally, even though I'm Swedish, understand that a modesty suit would be to cover your modest parts. I guess you can't even wear a modesty suit any more."

- Alshammar in Asia One News

Appparently in Beijing, swimmers wearing more than one suit had great success. Italian hottie Federica Pellegrini set a record when she won the 200m freestyle at the Olympics.
Aussie babe Stephanie Rice is in favour of the extra suit ban and questions why an athlete would wear one as the rules have been publicized. Of course, Rice has proven to be one not to worry about her modesty. Remember the Olympian's controversial Facebook pics?

Can a model have a better bum than Misty May?

The AVP has unveiled some sexy ads for the upcoming beach volleyball tour. In one of the ads, they actually brought in a model's butt to use (see it here). Why would you bring in someone else when you have one of greatest bums in the world already - Misty May-Treanor's?

It is so hot that former President Bush was scared to tough it for fear he would be burned. Why else wouldn't a heterosexual male want to slap that fine thing?

May-Treanor has teamed with Kerri Walsh, "Six Feet of Sunshine," to win two Olympic gold medals and various other championships. However, she suffered a major injury on Dancing With The Stars so she has some time off. Couldn't she have pulled on a bikini and showed off her fine keister?

AVP puts its best ass forward

Like any company, the AVP beach volleyball tour wants to market its best face. It just so happens that face is actually an ass (See the New York Times article here). With all the ridiculously toned bodies on the beach, the AVP has launched a print, online and outdoor ad campaign that features - among other things - butts.

The behind above is that of AVP player Tyra Turner (pictured). It is kind of funny though that with all the hot bodies the sport does have that in another ad (which you can see here) a "stunt butt" had to be used.

That's right - they brought in a model to use. Why didn't they just use Misty May-Treanor's stupendous buttocks? The ad campaign does reportedly use Kerri Walsh (not sure which body part), who has partnered with Misty May-Treanor, who is recovering from a serious injury sustained during her work on Dancing with The Stars, to win Olympic gold medals and various championships.

Interestingly enough, the person who oversees the AVP's marketing is Kristine Lefebvre. You might remember her from her sting on the Apprentice. Or maybe you recall she was a Playboy covergirl?

Do you care about Candace Parker's breast size?

WNBA star and former Lady Vols standout Candace Parker got the cover of ESPN the magazine. So, what ate people fired up about? The fact the reporter, a woman, references the fact that Shelden Williams' baby mama has got C-cup ta tas (actually, due to ger pregnancy, they are might be approaching D-cup territory).

There is a lot of talk on the SportsJournalists.com forum about whether it is appropriate. DeadSpin.com, as always, has the scoop.

Racing in a thong

A flight attendant did the run of shame as she completed part of the Amazing Race wearing a thong. A member of each two-person team had to complete an about 1.4 mile run through some cold streets in Siberia in only their underwear.
Christie did it in just a thong and bra. The 37-year-old blonde might not be the hottest girl on the show but she looked pretty good in her thong and bra, although they pixelated out her butt (WATCH it here). She had very little be ashamed of - although her team finished last. However, they were not eliminated but will have to deal with a "speed bump" challenge next week.

Finishing just a head of her was Jennifer, who played volleyball at the University of Louisville. As she said she does not wear underwear they first had to get her a pair before she started the race. The striped pair she wore were not exactly Victoria Secrets-style hot, but this long and lean former college athlete looked pretty good.

Another female trotting in her skivves was Cara. This former Miami Dolphins cheerleader and her partner Jamie are the show's top lookers. Cara looked pretty good in her mismatched coloured undies, however she did not run too much. The UCLA grad also bitched for a bit about how no one was whistling at her and then seemed to be a little happier when a guy tried to hit on her.

Passing Cara while she walked was Tammy. She is a cutie.
The others running were men and we don't need to talk about them. Host Phil also showed up in his undies and while the wife seemed impressed, I really didn't need to see it.

Sexy Gulbis on the Apprentice

Our favourite golfer Natalie Gulbis (way better than Tiger Woods as far as we are concerned) is on the Celebrity Apprentice. While we think that show is a bunk of crap and we can't stand The Donald (does anyone care any more about Donald Trump and his hair?), we are always happy to have a chance to see Natalie. The pic here is her dressed up as a super hero as part of one of her team's challenges.

We are not the only ones who love Nat. Gunaxin has put together quite the gallery of this blonde beauty. Check it out.
