Elli Rihannon Mueller Osborne naked in Requiem For Selina
Norwegian drama series.
In early 2000s Norway, 17-year-old Selina starts a beauty blog “Celina Isabelle,” sharing tips and promoting surgery. As her influence grows, she shifts from bullied teen to Norway’s top blogger and controversial icon.
Norwegians have and use a lot of names. When I lived there in the 90s, they referred to each other formally by all of their names. If they were Tor-Finn or Odd-Simen or Ann-Katrin, that’s exactly how people addressed them. It was “Good morning, Ann Katrin,” never just Ann, and definitely not Anni or Kat. Being a good Texan, I appreciated this, since our state was filled with Betty Sues, Billy Bobs and Joe Dons, so I Texified their monikers when I lived there. Ann Katrin became Annie Sue, for example, and Odd Simen became Odd Bob, which sounds like a Bond villain, but was a major upgrade in English, because his name is pronounced pretty much like “odd semen.”
(There are also Norwegians named Odd-Bent, which is pronounced more or less as it looks. Odd-Even is one that is funny on paper, but not when spoken.)
By the way, the young Norwegians loved these Texas names so much that they started to call each other by them, even when speaking Norwegian, although they would Nordify the sounds a bit when they spoke Norwegian, so Bob sounded like Bawb or almost rhymed with the old testament Job, depending on which part of Norway they came from. I taught them the proper Texas “bahb” pronunciation when they spoke English, and they drawled it out even more than I did. (Norwegians are great at English. If I coached them, almost all of them could speak a few sentences sounding completely American.)
The older Norwegians found all of this disrespectful and didn’t see the humor in it.
That said, Elli Rihannon Mueller Osborne is a lot of names, even by Norwegian standards. (And none of them sound very Norwegian.)

The nudity in episode 1 of A Girl and an Astronaut
Polish series (“Dziewczyna i kosmonauta”) that combines sci-fi elements with a love triangle. On Netflix.
In 2022 Niko was a young arrogant fighter pilot who got the opportunity of a lifetime: to go into outer space in a Russian capsule for 24 hours, as part of a private experiment on human cryopreservation. He was madly in love with Marta, who was equally pursued by Niko’s best friend, Bogdan. Shortly after being launched into orbit, Niko began to hallucinate and accidentally set the capsule timer for thirty years, immediately going into sub-hibernation.
In 2052, Marta is married to Bogdan, and they have a daughter, Oliwia. One day, Niko’s capsule reappears in the sky and lands in the ocean. SkyCOMM, the Russian company that launched him into space, retrieves it and brings it back to Russia. There, Nadia, who thirty years before was a seven-year-old girl whose grandfather was the doctor in charge of Niko’s health and training, now suffers from ALS and wants to use Niko’s stem cells to find a cure. Marta travels to Russia to bring Niko, who hasn’t aged, back home, but is prevented from doing so by the Russians. Niko eventually escapes, with SkyCOMM operatives in pursuit.

Fernanda de Freitas topless in episode 3 of Capoeiras
New series from Brazil. Currently streaming on Hulu.
It follows two close-bodied capoeiristas, chronicling the duo’s adventures, loves, and travels.
Close-bodied?
Anyway, …
Capoeira is sort of a combination of dance, gymnastics and martial arts. It is highly stylized, and can be performed as a show or as a fight. In this series, I gather that it’s sort of a semi-underground fighting circuit, and it’s brutal like MMA.
College pigskin. Week 1.
Most of the contests were “jobber games,” those mismatches in which powerful teams put up big numbers against weak, hand-picked opponents. The most ridiculous example this week was the Texas Tech game, in which the nationally-ranked Red Raiders took on the mighty Golden Lions of Arkansas Pine-Bluff. Tech was ahead 47-0 at halftime, when they finally took their feet off the gas.
But the week turned out to be more than jobber games. It’s unusual to see teams ranked 1, 4, 6, and 8 all lose in week 1, so there were a few highlights this week:
First and foremost, Kent State, the lowest-ranked FBS team in the nation last year on Sagarin’s computers, entering the game with a 21-game losing streak, found somebody worse to beat up, starting off on the road to the national championship! Their opponent was Merrimack, which is not only an FCS squad, but is one of only two FCS teams in the nation without even a conference to play in. Losing to Kent State was the worst thing to happen to Merrimack since the Monitor.
Y’know, the Merrimack Ironclads would be a great team name, but they resorted to the uninspired “Warriors.”
(Historical trivia: “Merrimack ironclad” is actually a misnomer. No such ship ever existed. There was no battle between the Monitor and the Merrimack. The Battle of Hampton Roads was fought between the Monitor and the Virginia. Back when the ship had been named the Merrimack, it was a steam-powered wooden frigate, and that craft was burned by the North so it could not be used by the South. The Confederacy raised it and converted it to an ironclad called the CSS Virginia.)
My Texas Longhorns managed to spend exactly no weeks as the nation’s #1 team. They lost to THE Ohio State University in their first game of the year. Of course, there’s no shame in that because THE is the defending national champion and was rated #2 or #3 in the pre-season polls. Texas, despite being #1, was actually the betting underdog in that game. But I kinda hoped the pundits knew what they were talking about when Texas topped the pre-season rankings. It turns out that punditry is an inexact science. Who knew?
It was a bad time for all of my alma maters (almae matres?? I always sucked at Latin grammar). Texas is at least a good team. The school where I got my B.A. is Fordham, which lost its first game 66-10 to Boston College, and lost the final game of last year 19-3 to fucking Merrimack (see above), managing only 31 total yards in the process. My other grad school, The University of Rochester, just stopped trying. They play D3. They haven’t played yet this year, but they lost their final four games last year to teams you never heard of. (I think some of them might be all-girls’ high schools.)
#4 Clemson also lost, to #9 LSU.
Bill Belichick’s debut at North Carolina was a disaster, a 48-14 loss to TCU. According to one commenter, it is the first time any Belichick team has allowed that many points.
It was a very good week for the Sunshine State. Unranked Florida State probably vaulted into the top 25 by beating powerful #8 Alabama, #10 Miami beat #6 Notre Dame, and #15 Florida won 55-0 over hapless Long Island University, an FCS team. Any time you beat Alabama and Notre Dame in the same week, it’s a major achievement. Beating LIU was somewhat less impressive. LIU’s 55-0 loss kept them tied for the best record in their conference, the NEC. I didn’t make that up. All nine conference teams played. All nine lost.
Kansas State, #17 in the pre-season polls, thought they were playing a jobber game and undoubtedly looked forward to crushing North Dakota, which is weak even for an FCS team. (They lost their last five games last year.) K-State finished the half with a 21-17 deficit. I’m guessing that their coach went ballistic in that locker room. K-State did manage to win, but just barely, 38-35.
Verena Altenberger nude in No Beast. So Fierce.
Villain, thou know’st nor law of God nor man.
No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity.
The quote above is spoken by Lady Anne to Richard, accusing him of cruelty. He cleverly turns it into a syllogism to argue that his lack of pity therefore proves he is not a beast, but in so declaring, he exposes his uniquely evil nature.
As you’ve probably guessed by now, this film is a re-imagining of Shakespeare’s Richard III. It takes place in today’s Berlin. Original title: “Kein Tier. So Wild.” In this iteration of the story, Wicked Dicky Three has now been awarded good posture and transgendered from Richard to Rashida.
As the feud between the powerful Arab families, York and Lancaster, shifts from Berlin’s streets to the courtroom. Rashida, a lawyer from the House of York, ends the gang conflict with a violent strike against the Lancasters. Despite her efforts, she remains marginalized as a woman in a patriarchal world, denied the title of queen. Determined to claim power, she manipulates, seduces, and destroys her adversaries. However, as she ascends to authority, Rashida faces the trauma of her war-torn childhood. Her rise to power ultimately leaves her ruling over a desolate kingdom, reflecting her inner devastation.
To quote another famous English author, “Bah, humbug.”
She has done some nudity in the past, but it has been modest. I don’t think Verena has done a scene even vaguely comparable to this.
