Diminuitive Defacer Leaves a Need for Decrypto
The Zenkoji Buddhist temple in Nagano Japan, considered a national treasure, was defaced with graffiti after they refused to be a part of the Olympic Torch relay event.
So, probably someone making good on these type of threats:
"Chinese people won't forgive [Japan] if the Japanese do the same things as the Americans and Europeans, such as making distorted reports about the Tibet issue."
Here's the strange part - as the video shows, the temple was defaced with lines and circles, spraypainted at a height of one meter, so no one is quite sure just what it means.
A curse? A hex? A puzzle? A really obnoxious viral?
See for yourself.

Go see this show.
Now watch me pretend to be a journo and rewrite a press release:
Fourteen artistIC LUMINARIES ARE GOING TO USE photography to tell stories, create landscapes, and document crimes that WERE NEVER COMMITTED. A 'PHOTO-FICTIONAL' COMMENT (OR IS IT?) ON THE NATURE OF reality IN AN ERA WHEN mass media exploits people's faith in photography's realism.
It's like wrote it myself. I wish more people would send me Press Releases. I would post more and sound more clever doing it.
Sigh.
But enough about me.
Here's what you REALLY need to know:
Giallo. Giant Cats. Zombies. Muppets.

Bear Baiting
In 2000, Alan Moore puts the kibosh on this:

a proposed series of 15th Anniversary Watchman figures from DC Direct due to his antipathy for all things DC, with DC stating:
"DC initiated plans for a fifteenth anniversary celebration of Watchmen in collaboration with Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. Subsequently, they've informed us that they'd prefer not to participate and it wouldn't be a party without them. Therefore, DC will not proceed with its previously announced plans for a Watchmen hardcover or Watchmen action figures."
Well, the hardcover came out in 2005, and 2008 gives us this:

Watchmen Movie Toys from DC Direct.
Guess it's now a party without them.
