Ichiro Suzuki's Baseball Throwing Demo Videos
If you know anything about baseball, then for sure you know that superstar Ichiro Suzuki is one of the very best players ever in the history of the sport. He may also be the very best outfielder to ever play the game as his ten consecutive Gold Glove awards are a strong testament to his excellent play in the outfield.
Ichiro may also have the most accurate throwing ability as well. Recently Sato Pharmaceutical Co., the makers of a popular health tonic or "Genki Drink" called "Yunker", made some cool TV commercials from a series of his amazing baseball throwing demo videos:
The below video shows some incredible highlights of the making of the above TV commercial:

WTF Japanese Yahoo Auction of The Earth!
Via Rocket News 24 November 1, 2012
It has long been known that in fact the earth was originally made in Japan. Also, we all know that in the past, Japan has built some really crazy things. For example back in 1993, Japan installed a new ocean right next to the old ocean in Japan! That worked well for a while. Then just last year, Japan installed a new world in Japan! So now it only makes sense that a Japanese seller is running an online Yahoo auction of The Earth itself!
Product Image:
And below is a Google translation Google Engrish generation of the product description:
The earth is yours God will come out to dream again, this before. Since I Sell said. The exhibit is the body of the earth. We exhibited this in tears because of the lack of money. Do you want to own the earth things too? I have also set unprecedented speedy. Please consult the shipping method. Thank you that do not know there was something in the question. Tender who prank, our excellent collection agents will always ask. Please let us know as soon as possible in case of cancellation. Because I do not want the trouble as possible. Because those who do not cancel the tender considered proof of purchase intention is confirmed from the question column - from God - that there is no proof of purchase intention please purchase intention from the question column m bidders (__) m with God evaluation in consultation than 10, those over 5% might cancel bid or bad evaluation. Well even if it is what I say ... the last time was very sorry for the inconvenience to everyone with a great deal of new asshole shit you do not read the air. (Minutes added 16:22, October 30, 2012) There is no speedy now ... Oh (additional 57 minutes at 10 October 31, 2012) purchased within one hour after the successful bid including early termination because there are many tender Rashiki bid prank too If you can not I will cancel the message of making a bid by the highest bidder convenience. Please bid on your note (additional 38 minutes at 11 October 31, 2012) does not answer to the same contents. Sense to ask the questions on the Q & A was perusing all. (Additional 59 minutes at 17 October 31, 2012) is no longer interesting because you have reached the limit amount bid. Secretariat like yahoo, Suka What should I do? (Added 23 hours 25 minutes 31 October 2012) when you go to bed 50 minutes ... 23 I'm sorry. (Additional 33 minutes at 8:00 on November 1, 2012) I think what everyone Secretariat Yahoo auction bid of this energy, does not help anything? Thank you consider (additional 08 minutes at 0 November 03, 2012) I'm sorry. Please ask your questions on the person doing the similar products and questions because of the bad condition I had a flu vaccination me. I think tomorrow will be slow because it is after a long break. Thank you consider. (19:01 minutes added November 04, 2012) Please tender only so please buy really came also reduced bid mischief soon. I've been too tired to work tender cancellation. Thank you.This auction of The Earth will continue for two more days. As of this writing, the current bid is at 20,500 yen ($255.42). However, that amount could change at any minute as the seller stipulates that each bid must include a message from the buyer that expresses a serious intent to actually purchase the Earth. If it doesn't happen, then the seller will start the auction all over again at 69 yen ($0.86). For more information, please refer directly to the official Japanese Yahoo Auction page.

mishmash*Julie Watai Release "Go Furby Go"
Yesterday mishmash*Julie Watai released the short version of their fourth single/music video entitled "Go Furby Go". The full length version will be available from October 26th, 2012 on iTunes, amazon.com, Google Play and other sites. Meanwhile please enjoy the abridged compositions on Youtube:
English
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBItKqGfa2U
Japanese
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTEZhpnvO7Q
As an early listener of the full length audio release, I have come to really appreciate this slow, mysterious tune in its expression of the lifestyle of a very busy model/singer and her music team. More than just an "an ode to the toy" this song features some interesting English, Spanish and Japanese lyrics in an abstract array describing some hasty preparations and inner feelings leading up to a fictional mishmash*Julie Watai TV debut. Also featured is Furby's hacked voice that babbles some cute and funny electronic phrases in English and "Furbish". Additionally, in the video we get to see Julie-san wearing some sexy lingerie by Neon Opera Tokyo. mishmash*Julie Watai is Toyoaki Mishima, Julie Watai and Masu Hiroshi Masuyama. Be sure to download this group's popular mp3 songs from Amazon, Ototoy and iTunes.

Japan's Mount Fuji Chaotic Eruption Warning
Via ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) October 13, 2012
After three centuries of peace, scientists are now predicting that Japan's Mount Fuji could soon have an eruption. Recently there have been other volcanic eruptions in other countries that previoiusly had magnitude nine earthquakes. Because of that, the chances of a Fuji flare up are increased since last year's 9.0 magnitude earthquake in Fukushima. Apparently the government of Japan is aware of this, but has done little in preparation for this potentially massive natural disaster. Below is a recent NTDTV news video on this current issue:

Because China: Wife Stands on Husband When Shopping
Here is another funny photo of a Chinese wife standing on her husband's back while shopping at the local grocery store. One could imagine other alternative ideas to this somewhat risky "slave zone" option, like getting help from the store's staff et al. But, instead, we can only wonder "Why?" and then reply with "Because China".

WTF KFC Japan Sells Chicken w/ Watermelon?
Via Japan Is Weird
At first look through Western eyes, this photo of a KFC Japan'a Colonel Sanders statue holding a watermelon slice appears to be somewhat racist. And, of course, there is no racism in Japan because there is only one race in Japan, right? Well, to be fair it is customary for Japanese to eat watermelon during the blazing heat of the summers. So whaddya think?
