thedailywhat: Photo of the Day: Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton stands next to NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who has just been appointed global cultural ambassador on behalf of the State Department. [ap via photoblog / h/t: @alex_ogle.] Very first thought… This looks oddly like Putin and Prokhorov in that amazingly awkward picture.

If there were one photograph in the world to sum up russia, this might be it.  No wait, add some herring and a bottle of vodka into it, maybe some tapochki and an overbearing grandmother giving you a spitbath and making you drink hot tea in the summers. Otherwise, yes. goodcabbage:
