From our Japanese News Affiliate June 20, 2012

And this lesson features the models/teachers wearing coloful, tight bikinis and very short shorts with a lot of water and soap suds. This lesson should make many hot rods very hot and very "clean", if you know what I mean:

Photo of Potala Palace in Lhasa Tibet
XXX Large Size
Here is a very beautiful photo of the Potala Palace located in Lhasa, Tibet Autonomous Region, China. It is the former residence of the Dalai Lama until he fled the uprising in 1959.
Nowadays it is somewhat difficult to get to Tibet as a tourist but it is not impossible. Such a trip involves obtaining both a China visa and an internal tourist visa. Once in Lhasa, travelers must hire an official tour guide to see this spectacular palace. Then, once inside Potala Palace, tourists are allowed a one hour time limit. Exceeding that limit will mean a huge fine and a sanction against the tour guide.

Rare Photo of David Bowie in 1955
Here is a rare photo of David Bowie at the age of eight in 1955. At that time he was attending the Burnt Ash Junior School and he sang in the school choir. His voice was considered "adequate" but his recorder playing showed an "above-average musical ability". At the age of nine his dancing ability was said to be "vividly artistic" and "astonishing" for a child.

It is NOT visible from space.
It is longer (5,500 miles) than the longest highway in the USA - U.S. Route 20 (3,365 miles).

Why, China Why? Because China #6
A few months ago we investigated a photo of a woman with a burning cigarette mounted to her glasses and a burning cigar sticking out of her ear. That picture was explained by it's source as a kind of Chinese alternative medicine. OK, fine. Whatever.
Today we have discovered the below photo and are once again asking "Why, China Why?":
The source of this photo turns out to be a Japanese blog post about a trip to Mongolia, which is technically a part of China. But the blogger does not offer an explanation for why one truck was carrying ten trucks on local roads and highways too! The Japanese post only talks about how doing something like this would be impossible in Japan etc. Therefore once again we have no other choice but to answer this with "Because China".
