Culture Buzz Oh my. Looks like this guy finally has some fierce competition.
Politics Buzz Because of the number of abortions, Perry says.
Sports Buzz Former NBA player Yao Ming is doing great things for pandas. Since his retirement, he's been involved in the creation of “Panda Valley,” a sanctuary in China that assimilates pandas born in captivity back into the wild. (via deadspin.com)

The Chinese construction company Broad Group have one-upped their previous record of building 15 stories in one week with this 30 story hotel built in just 15 days. Erected near Dongting lake, in Hunan Province, the hotel was assembled from pre-fabr…
Politics Buzz The video from Ron Paul's backers in New Hampshire — nad not the official campaign — features the former U.S. Ambassador to China speaking Chinese, and asks, “American values? Or Chinese?” It also attacks him for having adopted two of his children.
Culture Buzz Moving, tragic, awe-inspiring photos and the tales of how they came to be. Reuters released a year-end round up of their best photographs and had the photographers provide a sort of director's commentary. Compelling stuff.

When someone went to check on him, he would not wake and his body was cold. He had been dead for quite some time. A monk who happened to be waiting for a train in the same station prayed for the man. WARNING: Unsettling images.

He was apparently hoarding them to sell to China, but the used tire market (sounds legit) collapsed and he got stuck with this sprawling graveyard of rubber and mosquito breeding.
Culture Buzz This is the same Ai Weiwei who was arrested by the Chinese government for his human rights activism, so, yeah…how dare he not be more involved. From an MSNBC live chat with the outspoken artist, who still faces threat of imprisonment for his struggle against the repressive regime. A commenter named Angelina didn't think Ai was sufficiently reverential in his response about OWS. This is infuriating.
Culture Buzz Guess that's one way to conquer a fear of death. And honestly, who has security cameras in a funeral palor? Do people really steal from the bereaved?
