突襲橫濱撐m-flo《太陽報》
安室BoA長腿鬥法辣興萬三Fans
23/07/2007
日韓樂壇天后安室奈美惠和BoA前日突襲橫濱Arena，以特別嘉賓身份客串組合m-flo的演唱會，大騷美腿跟兩名成員合唱，成功辣現場約一萬三千名觀眾！人氣二人組合m-flo過去積極跟各方歌手作破天荒合作，曾與倖田來未、安室奈美惠、BONNIE PINK、CHARA和Crystal Kay等41個歌手單位合唱，並以「Loves」系列之名發行唱片，廣受樂迷愛戴。適逢系列的最後一張大碟「COSMICOLOR」於月前面世，他們昨日假橫濱Arena舉行全國巡迴個唱尾場，獲18位嘉賓助陣，卡士強勁。
紅星客串卡士強勁當中最為矚目的要算是安室，其新大碟《PLAY》剛連續兩周奪得銷量榜首位。當晚個唱踏入第二次安哥時，安室突然現身，身穿碎花連身短裙並展示修長美腿，跟MC VERBAL載歌載舞《Luvotomy》，氣氛頓時High爆！全場約萬三名觀眾無不站起來，安室亦表示非常開心，希望能再有機會合作演出。
至於身在韓國的BoA亦特地趕回日本捧場，認真畀面！她與VERBAL合唱《the Love Bug》一曲，而其白色熱褲打扮，絕不讓安室專美。事後眾藝人在後台聚首一堂，連avex社長松浦勝人均參與其中。

Farewell to anime!
Farewell to anime, cosplayers and bishonen!! Thanks to a certain company in the making, anime popularity has come to a halt in singapore. From then on, only hardcore otakus will continue to pursue such an expensive hobby.
Bye Kipi!
or not?
Can't really put down anime as I'm also some sort of addict. Guess will find 'other' ways to watch anime without getting caught. Seems like anything that you do in singapore can be charged if you do not pay MONEY for it. So sad mankind has come to such a state... When I thought art is suppose to be appreciated and the internet is liberal.

Top 10 Tallest Monument #9
Today featuring this lost statue from Afghanistan. Pretty amazing for carvers to carve things out of solid rock.
9. Buddha of Bamyan, Afghanistan
The Buddha of Bamyan were monumental statue of standing Buddha carved into the side of a cliff in the Bamyan valley of central Afghanistan, situated 230 km northwest of Kabul. 55 meters tall. It were destroyed by the Taliban in 2001. Japan, Switzerland, and UNESCO, among others, have pledged support for the rebuilding of the statues.
More info over at Wikipedia.
The Buddhas of Bamyan (Pashto: د بودا بتان په باميانو کې De Buda butan pe bamiyano ke, Persian: تندیسهای بودا در باميان tandis-ha-ye buda dar bamiyaan) were two monumental statues of standing Buddhas carved into the side of a cliff in the Bamyan valley of central Afghanistan, situated 230 km (143 miles) northwest of Kabul at an altitude of 2500 meters (8,202 feet). Built during the 6th century, the statues represented the classic blended style of Greco-Buddhist art.
The main bodies were hewn directly from the sandstone cliffs, but details were modelled in mud mixed with straw, coated with stucco. This coating, practically all of which was worn away long ago, was painted to enhance the expressions of the faces, hands and folds of the robes; the larger one was painted carmine red and the smaller one was painted multiple colors[2]. The lower parts of the statues' arms were constructed from the same mud-straw mix while supported on wooden armatures. It is believed that the upper parts of their faces were made from great wooden masks or casts. The rows of holes that can be seen in photographs were spaces that held wooden pegs which served to stabilize the outer stucco.
They were destroyed by the Taliban with the assistance of Pakistani and Saudi engineers in 2001. Japan, Switzerland, and UNESCO, among others, have pledged support for the rebuilding of the statues.
