Here's yet another incident showing the lack of human rights in China:
Gay pageant 'cancelled by police' in China
Via BBC News and Youtube
15 January 2010
"A Chinese gay pageant, said to be the first held in the country, was ordered by police to close an hour before opening, organisers say.
The Mr Gay China event was thought to mark a new openness toward the gay community in China.
Organisers said police informed them it could not go ahead because they had not applied "according to the procedures".
Homosexuality was illegal in China until 1997, and officials described it as a mental illness until 2001.
The event's organiser, Ben Zhang, said he had been hoping the event would mark another step towards greater awareness of gay people in China."

Japanese Muscle March Game Trailer
Via Gameranx (12-04-9)
"Namco Bandai has announced that it will soon be releasing "Muscle March"(another odd game to come out of Japan) in North America on Wii Ware."
This game is just so off the hook, WTF, that it could very well become a big comeback hit for the Japanese gaming industry. In the below trailer, we see the muscle men (and a polar bear in orange shorts) chasing a football player who has stolen their protein powder:
