This 1 is special because there won't be moon light to obscure the meteors

So if you can drive out somewhere away from city lights, the sky should be pretty dark, so the meteors will light the night

Drew Hamilton is an employee of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game who was camping at the McNeil River State Game Sanctuary and Refuge. He was watching other bears fish in the river below when a huge Alaskan brown bear walks up to his campsite and sits down right next to him.

Another day at the office.

^ Looks like the bear was upset the guy didn't offer him the empty chair.

Modern Toilet Restaurant (便所主題餐廳) is a unique bathroom-themed restaurant chain, based in Taiwan, with several branches throughout Asia.[1]
Everything in the 2,800-square-foot (260 m2), three-story restaurant is based on items from a bathroom. The checkered tile covered walls are adorned with showerheads, while plungers hang from the ceiling along with fæces-shaped lights. The chairs are actual unworking toilets, dishes are served on plastic miniature toilet bowls, and drinks in miniature urinals.[2] Owner Wang Tzi-Wei opened Modern Toilet after the success of his ice cream shop that sold swirls of ice cream served in mini toilets.[3] It is not odd for Taiwan to host restaurants with unusual themes. Taiwan also has eating locales that resemble jailhouses and hospitals.[4]
