Google image search results for the Tiananmen Square protest in both China and the U.S. Not that this is anything we didn't know, but it's striking to see it laid out side by side. (Via Reddit.)
Perhaps in an effort to make fish cuter, pet owners in China have been buying inked fish, personalized with tattoos.
A Tibetan mastiff named 'Yangtze River Number Two' has become the world's most expensive dog, selling to a Chinese woman for $585,000. Let's just hope she spend a little more money teaching that dog to answer to another name. (Also, how much did 'Yangzte River Number One' cost?)

With cheap loans, labor and electricity, Chinese companies are pulling ahead in the solar product industry.
The Chinese chihuahua born with a heart-shaped mark on his fur now has a baby brother named Love, who also carries the same trait. This is so cute, we might just have to take a bath to get rid of the warm 'n fuzzies.

As China runs out of landfill space, it is racing to build incinerators, a growing source of toxic emissions.
Fei Fei's owner bought him wraparound sunglasses as a joke, but now the hottest sh*t on four legs refuses to take them off! And yet, no mention is made of the fact that the newest local celebrity is carrying around water bottles with his mouth. That's just f*cked up.
In an attempt to draw governmental attention, staff at the Ayutthaya Elephant Kraal in Thailand painted a herd of elephants black and white to make them look like pandas. Don't worry - it's just watercolor, so their cuteness factor will eventually level itself out again when the stuff peels off.
X-Men cat grows furry bat wings. Scientists are baffled. [Editor's Note: The cat, however, seems relatively unfazed. Click through for more pics of this genetic anomaly, which is clearly the way forward for cats.]
This Flinstones-esque bycicle is the new way to lose weight and get in shape in China. It has a pentagonal wheel at the front and a triangular one at the back, and it doesn't look like any fun at all to ride. 'I just wanted to give people an alternative to normal, boring bikes,' says inventor Guan Baihua.
From November 2007 to November 2008, this guy walked a total of 4646km through China. During that time, his beard grew a fair amount. Fortunately, he has documented this.

So says the Dalai Lama. Today is the 50th anniversary of the failed Tibetan uprising against Chinese rule. The 20th anniversary of Tiananmen Square and the 10th anniversary of a major Falun Gong protest are also coming up this year. So things are a little tense in China.
Movie Buzz The Chinese, apparently unhappy with Jack Black and Co.'s astounding rendition of Kung Fu Panda, have decided that they can make their own version just as well, thank you very much. The result is Kung fu Master aka Wong Fei Hong vs Kung Fu Panda, and was a direct-to-dvd unofficial sequel to the movie that made a young lad named Jack Black an American action hero.
This breasts sculpture by Chinese artist Shu Yong was paraded around (by a red ox?) as an attempt to encourage women to avoid plastic surgery and embrace their natural curves. From the looks of it, this just might have the opposite effect.

China now has a traveling execution bus. What every country needs, really… Cause it's just a waste of life if no one gets to see it end.

The city of Guiyu in China houses 5,500 businesses that run solely to process the country's discarded electronics — or e-waste. I'm pretty sure this amount immense of electronics living in one space will create a giant robot that will destroy the world. But that's just me.
The Passion Barbecue Chicken Wings, a restaurant in Shenyang, China, is using dictator Saddam Hussein's image to sell their spicy wings. Asked to explain their mascot, a spokesman said: “Saddam loved challenges, and eating our spicy chicken wings also requires courage, so it’s a good match.”
Sports Buzz As the national pastime of China is essentially “winning gold medals,” it makes sense that they host a Peasant Olympics. The 6th Annual Peasant Games included competitions for such tasks as carrying water and storing grain. Notes the state news agency: “The games for the peasants place more emphasis on recreation and less on the results.”
