Star War – Backstroke of the West

Remember this flickr photo set and this blog post? Here’s a refresher, this guy who used to live in Shanghai picked up a bootleg DVD of Star Wars Episode III Revenge of the Sith around 2005. He discovered that the English subtitle was actually translated from the Chinese subtitle back to English. The result? Comical, thought provoking, and often WTF? 
Apparently there’s now an updated version captured directly from the DVD, which was posted back in January of this year. Here’s a teaser.

Interesting take, especially the open-to-interpretation graphical element.

Vending Machine on Busway Shelter

Spotted this at Bendungan Hilir busway shelter.
 
There’s also one at Karet and maybe at other shelters too. The one at Karet has been there a fair while though, I’ve just never had to go there.
 
 Two Coke girls were minding the machine helping to explain to people what it is and how to use it. It just dawned on me that these things are not common in Jakarta.
 
I didn’t get to buy anything because my bus was arriving but there is a warning saying you’re not allowed to consume food nor drinks in the bus.
 
It was just yesterday though that I saw a newspaper vending machine for Koran Jakarta at Sarinah just outside McDonalds.

Obama said, “Wash your hands”

“So wash your hands when you shake hands. Cover your mouth when you cough. I know it sounds trivial, but it makes a huge difference,” Obama said last week.
