Ni Hao You Doin’? – A new Hepnova shirt on Zazzle in collaboration with Joey G.

We were hanging out in Little Italy/Chinatown tonight and Joe came up with this brilliant bilingual pun that celebrates the confluence of cultures in a pizza/scallion pancake slice of Lower Manhattan with classic New York wit and attitude.  Here’s to pasta and to potstickers and to Sino-Italian-American friendship! Ni hao you doin’?

I went to the Village Halloween Parade last night with some peeps from ITP.  I dressed up in a Japanese-inspired goth cosplay look.  The makeup ended up a bit punk-Mohican, but that’s ok.  Jelani is in the pic behind me with the bear mask.

Actually, I’m not all that surprised. When I was living there, I saw some TV variety show introduce a line of children’s clothing made out of knife stabbing resistant fabrics. This was a few weeks after a horrific school killing when an elementary school kid stabbed a fellow student to death. Well, we all know well that scared people make good consumers. Like in the US, when we have leaders basically stating that it is their patriotic duty to shop. Alright, go to the mall, fight terrorism. That being said, I really want one of those vending machine outfits now.

Fearing Crime, Japanese Wear the Hiding Place

Torin Boyd/Polaris, for The New York Times

Though street crime is relatively low in Japan, quirky camouflage designs like this vending-machine dress are being offered to an increasingly anxious public to hide from would-be assailants.

By MARTIN FACKLER

Published: October 20, 2007

TOKYO, Oct. 19 — On a narrow Tokyo street, near a beef bowl restaurant and a pachinko parlor, Aya Tsukioka demonstrated new clothing designs that she hopes will ease Japan’s growing fears of crime.
