A Fond du Lac County woman is accused of using a large number of tomatoes to hit her husband in the face as the two fought. From surfer Lisa Kezios!
Newly Discovered Photos from the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival.
This unique collection contains World Famous Photograher Ken Marcus' never-before-seen images of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin,The Who, Simon & Garfunkle, Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones and others. Unknown photos that have been hidden away for 40 years.
"Shooting backstage at the Monterey Pop Festival was an amazing photographic experience. The film has been lost for almost 40 years. Recently, while remodeling my studio we found the box containing the negatives. We had long thought the images were lost." See them here: http://www.kenmarcusgallery.com/index.php?dir=music
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released its long-awaited report on the collapse of World Trade 7 following the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. "Our take-home message today is that the reason for the collapse of World Trade Center 7 is no longer a mystery," NIST lead investigator Shyam Sunder told journalists at this morning's press conference in Gaithersburg, Md. "WTC 7 collapsed because of fires fueled by office furnishings. It did not collapse from explosives or from diesel fuel fires."

Britain is the worst country in the Western world in which to be a child, according to a recent UNICEF report. Ordinarily, I would not set much store by such a report; but in this case, I think it must be right—not because I know so much about childhood in all the other 20 countries examined but because the childhood that many British parents give to their offspring is so awful that it is hard to conceive of worse, at least on a mass scale. The two poles of contemporary British child rearing are neglect and overindulgence.
Consider one British parent, Fiona MacKeown, who in November 2007 went on a six-month vacation to Goa, India, with her boyfriend and eight of her nine children by five different fathers, none of whom ever contributed financially for long to the children's upkeep. (The child left behind—her eldest, at 19—was a drug addict.) She received $50,000 in welfare benefits a year, and doubtless decided—quite rationally, under the circumstances—that the money would go further, and that life would thus be more agreeable, in Goa than in her native Devon. http://www.city-journal.org/2008/18_3_otbie-british_children.html
 An incredible huge collection of images of Japan!
The Lost Tribe of Japan! Sent in by Surfer Richard Crowe, more links follow from him in the same color.
"Ainu" means "human." The Ainu people regard things useful to them or beyond their control as "kamuy"(gods). In daily life, they prayed to and performed various ceremonies for the gods. These gods include : "nature" gods, such as of fire, water, wind and thunder ; "animal" gods, such as of bears, foxes, spotted owls and gram-puses ; "plant" gods, such as of aconite, mush-room and mugwort ; "object" gods, such as of boats and pots ; and gods which protect houses, gods of mountains and gods of lakes. The word "Ainu" refers to the opposite of these gods.
The tribes of Taiwan!
Phallic celebrations occur all over the pagan world- but did you know that Easter was for many Christians, a phallic celebration?!? How does Surfer Richard Crowe find this stuff? Or that St. Pat's on March 17 was a lot wilder in the past?
BEST SITE OF THE DAY:
Is Kim Jong Il dead? Yes, North Korea's "Dear Leader" is no more, having passed away in the fall of 2003, writes Waseda University professor Toshimitsu Shigemura in Shukan Gendai (Aug 23-30).
A one-time Mainichi Shimbun journalist posted in Seoul, Shigemura is introduced by the magazine as a leading authority on the Korean Peninsula. His latest book, released this month, is titled "The True Character of Kim Jong Il."
If true, the implications are potentially vast. Among them: former Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi's summit partner during one or both of his landmark visits to Pyongyang in 2002 and 2004 was not Kim himself but a dummy—the stand-in Shigemura claims has been fooling the world for at least five years.
A dictator having one or multiple doubles is a familiar notion since Iraq's Saddam Hussein was shown to have deployed them. But Saddam was alive at the time. Kim, in Shigemura's scenario, was not manipulating a look-alike; he was replaced by one.
Of course it's fantastic—but in North Korea, says Shigemura, fantasy and reality are not mutually exclusive. http://www.japantoday.com/category/kuchikomi/view/north-koreas-kim-died-in-2003-and-was-replaced-by-lookalike-says-waseda-profesor
