Japan's international security do you think?
Remember when I asked "how long will this last?" in regards to the AP office in Pyongyang? The countdown begins today!
>"Perhaps this is an incorrect road?" mumbled one of the North Korean minders ... A cloud of brown dust swirled down deeply potholed streets, past concrete apartment buildings crumbling at the edges. Old people trudged along the sidewalk ... Two men in wheelchairs waited at a bus stop. There were stores with no lights, and side roads so battered they were more dirt than pavement.
> ... the drivers of the three buses quickly backed up in the narrow streets and headed back toward the intended destination: a spotlessly clean, brightly-lit, extensively marbled and nearly empty building that preserves digital music recordings and makes DVDs.
lol
This article is absolutely amazing and a sure-fire sign that the AP senses its days in paradise are numbered! Read it!

The northern part of Somalia is actually fairly stable AFAIK and call themselves the independent Republic of Somaliland. No other country recognize their independence because... I actually can't tell why, even after some web searching.
Part of the reason seems to be that the African Union disapproves of secession movements unless they reach a mutual agreement with the other claimant of the territory, which I guess means they'll only recognize breakaway states if overt civil war erupts and the secessionists force a truce.

Syria. <i>What</i> could be more unstable than a dictatorship undergoing a civil war/violent revolution!
Blind motherfucking Jason Borne.
Blind mothafucka, jumpin' out roofs, scalin' walls, breakin' ankles and still goin', goin' to da embassy.
Bad Ass.
He's out of the embassy and in a hospital.
He asked the Chinese gov't to leave China. They said he could only leave for school related reasons.
So the University of New York offered him a fellowship.
> He asked the Chinese gov't to leave China.
Bad Ass, Indeed.
Do not be alarmed, but the cannibal shrimp invasion has begun.
The influx of the jumbo-sized shrimp (which look more like a small lobster than the little pink crustaceans you see at the grocery store) has increased 10 times in the last year, according to a report from the U.S. Geological Survey—from 32 in 2010 to 331 in 2011. The shrimp-eating shrimp have been spotted in waters from North Carolina to Texas.
Tony Reisinger of the Texas Sea Grant Extension Service, told CNN that the tiger prawn "are cannibalistic as are other shrimp, but it's larger so it can consume the others..."
...yes, but how do they taste with cocktail sauce?
In this video, a Shetland pony is found wandering the streets of suburban Modesto, California. About 30 seconds into the video, the pony makes a run for it, avoiding the growing crowd of residents.
Eventually, some college students brought in a snack of hay for the pony, which helped settle him down for a bit...
Bronies are suspected.
One time I was driving on back roads near Modesto in heavy fog and nearly hit a donkey. A DONKEY. On the fucking street. This constitutes a trend!
A video on youtube was posted showing young children sweeping the classroom floors in Japan. In Japanese schools this is normal, unlike many countries in the west where janitors are hired to clean the schools professionally. Comments posted on the video from those who have probably never experienced the Japanese School system left mostly positive comments.
“Aw.I wish we did that over here in america. My elementary school life was boring. You learned and then you went home.” – KittenNyanNyan
“they’re enjoying themselves…
I LOVE Japan !! ^^” – Maio0oia
“That is why asian are so disciplined:)” – wowee9314
In response the 2channers, who are mostly Japanese and had experience in such an environment were a bit more skeptical. Some agreed with the tradition saying that it was good education, but others say it was an old tradition getting stale. Here are some excerpts of the comments posted on the thread
>“Sense of responsibility? I’m just doing it because its a regulation”
Indeed.
Not Japanese but my country has the largely similar system. Never really liked it when I was student.

Gee, wonder why.
Anyway, if your Japanese buddy can say what he wants over in http://4-ch.net/politics/kareha.pl/1283961841/ so can that Korean guy.
We get it, some of you East Asians are xenophobes, leave us out of your racist overtures.

It's been found that they did the same thing with IE. Not that anyone uses IE but still, it's wrong.
I am going to carry all my stuff from Google services to better ones.
