Since oil and water don't mix, these fish can live 5 to 10 years under a deep fryer! The video apparently describes a new kind of oil that doesn't explode when combined with water. Food in a fryer usually gives off little drops of water that splatter everywhere. This new kind of oil limits splatter and allows the water to flow into a lower basin...

This is a pretty sad story about a 22 year old girl from Coventry, UK who had only been in Japan for a few months teaching for Nova English school. She dissappeared after a house visit to one of her students, a 28 year old man, apartments in Chiba near Tokyo. She was found in the same apartment days later after her friends reported her missing, in a bathtub covered in sand.

Watching the video report below, its almost laughable the part where the BBC reporter goes:

"Detectives are hunting this man, Tatsuya Ishihashi. It was his flat in which the body was found. When police came here to talk to him, he ran away, and they lost him."

We lost him, Damnit! Oh well, lets go stop some REAL criminals without lights or bells on their bicycles!! ... enfuriating.

Watch the BBC short report below or the full story here.

The info's kind of in Engrish, but there are more pencil designs at JAD Project.

This is what Japanese game creators bring to the world with their filthy Zelda game franchise. This is a true example of a miscreant of society, no doubt an American cosplayer! But the true culprit here can only be Japan!

So, in summary; if this Wolfized Link was a girl, I would probably be incredibly turned on. Even more so if she was Japanese...
