Japanese has a newfound sushi.
The new ingredient sitting on top of the vinegar rice are CatS!!　o(*’o'*)o
Of course, these sushi are… INEDIBLE (*^^*)

The newly created product by Japan is known as “Nekozushi” simply, means “Cat sushi”. Keep a look out as “Nekozushi” sets to become the next rising star.

In reality, we are not going to see “kawaii” cats sitting so still and comfortably on a vinegar rice (shari). The idea is hilarious.
And I am sure Sushi & Cat lovers are not going to get enough of this “delicacy”.

“Nekozushi” has become popular free iphone/Android download applications.
Another reason why you should own a iphone or Android phone, if you haven’t got one?

This is not the end you are seeing “Nekozushi”.
We are sure more goods are coming up.

Do remember the name “Nekozushi” (*^-^)

The famous humanoid robot ASIMO, developed by HONDA.
Doesn’t he look like a cute, intelligent but “underage” astronaut?

Brief profile of ASIMO (model year 2011)：

• Age: 12years (Equivalent to a primary six student)
• Height: 130cm (+10cm over the years)
• Weight: 48kg (-6kg)
• Maximum speed: 9km/hr (+6km. About jogging speed!)

The technology of ASIMO had made tremendous advancement within a mere 12 years. Behaviour of ASIMO get closer to that of human beings and arms, legs movements became very much natural as compared to older types.

• Intellectual improvements – He detects & analyses human’s movement and reacts accordingly, distinguishes & understands when 3 persons are talking at the same time, etc.
• Physical improvements – Range of complex leg movements, mobility are expanded (hop with one leg, run backwards etc.)
• Task performance capabilities – Perform delicate works using his hands and fingers. (Opening the flask cover and pouring water into cup, holding up his fingers to make the peace sign, etc. v(^-^)v　)

*Thumbs up for Honda & ASIMO. Too AWESOME! * d(^-^)b

So if I were to own ASIMO, what will be his first assignment?
Without thinking twice about ASIMO’s small built, I want him to carry me in his arms, walking up & down the stairs. (This is not “child abuse”, but a pure silly dream of mine~~ )

The world’s tallest tower, Tokyo Sky tree finally opened its door for bussiness on 22-May 2012. Forget about heading to the tower, if you haven’t got your ticket. Tickets were fully sold out and aren’t available, not until 11-July.

A little bit about the tickets :
Two months advance purchase through internet is possible from 11-Jul.
TOKYO SKYTREE TEMBO DECK tickets are priced at 2,500yen/adult.
Tickets are sold at 2,000yen (500yen cheaper) if purchased on actual day.

Building the world’s tallest tower on a land prone to earthquakes, is a task too challenging. However Japanese engineers are confident that Sky Tree won’t topple even with strong earthquakes. Of course this points to the high earthquake proof architectural technology, that Japanese designed buildings are famous for.

Sky Tree was already put to test through the Tōhoku earthquake that happened last year. At that time, Tokyo recorded a very strong quake of about 6th degree on the seismic scale and Tokyo Sky Tree amazingly survived without even the slightest damage to its structure.

Another hit product, newly launched “Soy-zero” saya sauce. How far will Japan go? They are always so full of ideas (*^o^*)

Salt-intake must be limited for those having high blood pressure. And soya sauce is a strong no-no due to the high salt content. The maker wanted this group of people who are saya sauce lovers to be still able to enjoy soya sauce, so that is how “Soy-zero” was born.

Take a closer look at the bottle design. Its spray type!
Innovative! The taste? How about taking a try?
