...Pinpointing Banksy's identity has long been a popular parlor game, and it's yielded false positives before. Last fall, a passerby in the East London neighborhood of Bethnal Green snapped a camera-phone picture of a man spray-painting a mural later confirmed to be Banksy's.

...Butt-Head's troubles come from the same sort of confusion. The two cartoon nerds do not encourage stupidity and cruelty to animals; they satirize it.

''We want to put in hospitals as part of the development,'' Irl said. ''You don't want your tourists getting sick and dying.''

The officers requested that they...
With extremely limited facility in Japanese, I am also generally at a loss to understand advertisements. An occasional English word accompanied by a photo tends to indicate that cell phone providers and green tea producers frequent the walls of the Tokyo metro. Posters supporting the Tokyo 2016 Olympic bid have been a recent addition...
