We had the good fortune to see Cirque du Soleil in Tokyo recently.
I'd like to take a moment to agree with what everyone else has been saying about the show: "It was absolutely incredible!"
I have never before seen such an overwhelming display of athleticism and theatrical talent.
The show that is currently touring in Tokyo is "Dralion", and it is definitely worth a trip to Yoyogi stadium (near Harajuku station).

Lindsay Ann Hawker's Alleged Murderer Tatsuya Ichihashi

The Chiba Prefectural Police have posted this enlarged picture of Lindsay Ann Hawker murder suspect Tatsuya Ichihashi. It shows two birthmarks on the left side of his face.
Seeing as how it's now "hay fever" season, Ichihashi could easily cover his birthmarks by wearing a surgical mask like everyone else (or use some concealer), so maybe this isn't incredibly helpful information.
There is still no new (reported) information on Ichihashi's whereabouts as we near the one year anniversary of Hawker's death.

Look What Somebody Sent Me!
I have no idea how long this clip will stay up on YouTube, but I show up briefly in the middle of this. It's from a (reasonably) popular drama from 2007 in which I played one of the main actress' angry boyfriend.

Not horridly expensive, but just how much ape does one get for 4,500 yen?
