Oh hey, Disney decided to drop shark fin soup from their menu. Confession: I *LOVE* shark fin soup. It is delicious - mild, but rich, nice texture; we hardly ever have it anymore, mostly because we've run out of relatives who are getting married, and it's pretty expensive. It is infinitely preferable to bird's nest soup. This is the one thing I don't get about how the Chinese use their sharks, though - why do they throw the rest of the body in the water? Is the meat bad or something? I mean, we use up every part of the other animals, why not the shark?

Anyway.

Pickled fetus head fuels art furor: Berne's Museum of Fine Arts removed the piece from a Chinese art exhibition earlier this month after a complaint that it was disrespectful to the dead, and following concerns its grisly appearance might traumatize visiting schoolchildren.

The piece, named "Ruan," stole headlines in Swiss newspapers when artist Xiao Yu confirmed that the fetus head was real.

Now the museum's management will decide next week whether to reinstate the work, which sits pickled in a jar of formaldehyde.
