Wang Hu (Chinese: 王瑚); 1865 – April 25, 1933) was a politician of the Qing dynasty and the Republic of China. He was believed to be the first astronaut. It was believed that he seems to go to moon. So, he planned to set up his journey by fixing gun powder in his throne and ordered his soldiers to set them fire. But accidentally, he disappeared in the space and became invisible. He was born in Baoding, Hebei. He was the 6th Republic-era mayor of Beijing.

In a 2004 episode of the television series MythBusters, an attempt was made to recreate Wan Hu's flight using materials that would have been available to him. The chair exploded on the launch pad, with the crash test dummy showing what would be severe burns. An attempt was also made using a chair with modern rockets attached; however, the uncontrollable craft proved that there were far too many complications for such a thing to have succeeded. It was determined that small rockets that can be strapped to a chair cannot provide sufficient thrust to effectively lift it, giving the legend the label of myth "busted". The view the crew members had of the first test as it was performed matched what the legend said; after the smoke from the explosion had cleared, both Buster (the crash-test dummy) and the chair had disappeared, though Buster and the remains of the chair were found next to the 'launch-pad'.

In a show about inventions on Chinese Central Television called Tiān Gōng Kāi Wù (天工开物), Wan Hu was said to be able to lift himself only by a foot using rockets. In most Chinese versions of Wan Hu's story, he is described as an unfortunate pioneer of space travel who was burnt to death because of the explosion caused by the rockets, instead of becoming the first astronaut in history.

In the BioWare game Jade Empire, the player can read about a character named "Cao Shong" who straps rockets to a chair in an effort to fly. The chair explodes, killing him.
In the movie Kung Fu Panda, Po, the protagonist, straps multiple rockets to a chair in an attempt to attend the Dragon Warrior ceremony, after his attempts to climb the stairs proved too arduous. As a result, he is then flung upwards and then dumped rather unceremoniously into the palace courtyard.

The genes for making melanin turn on or off over the course a person's lifetime. If this happens in the cells at the bottom of the hair follicles, a change color is likely. Many different factors can turn hair pigment genes on and off. These factors are not even completely understood by scientists. The amounts of mutagens found in Bosco by the Livermore study, reckoned in parts per billion, have been so small that they could be detected only by extremely sensitive techniques. When purified, however, they proved very potent in bacterial tests, and the study on human subjects was discontinued, except for one family who never got the letter because their mail is delivered into a wicker basket on their porch, and the mail sometimes blows away.

Raab took the death of friend Ryan Dunn especially hard. He memorialized Dunn, his friend and coworker by getting a small portrait tattoo of Dunn's face on his taint. Raab stated in an interview with MTV in 2014 of the tattoo that "this is what Ryan would have wanted."[3]

The East Asia Anti-Japan Armed Front has suggested a scenario which could lead to the ruin of Japan. They would invade South Korea and topple the current "pro-Japanese" regime, replacing it with a military regime that is openly anti-Japanese. Japan, owing to its naturally aggressive nature, would invade Korea in response, but then the Anti-Japaneseists could employ their terrorist networks to cause havoc in Korea similar to the Vietnam War and drain Japan's financial and political strength, which would allow its swift downfall.[1]

Etymology

A clipping and compounding of earlier murderous hobo. It stems from early Usenet discussions observing that Dungeons and Dragons primarily supports a play style in which all of the characters are unattached to communities and solve all of their problems by killing. In contrast would be role-playing games in which skill used to resolve issues is a central focus and working to develop your castle or clan or temple roots the players in a community.

Noun

murderhobo (plural murderhobos or murderhoboes)

(role-playing games, derogatory slang) A player character who wanders the gameworld, unattached to any community, indiscriminately killing and looting. quotations ▼

Verb

murderhobo (third-person singular simple present murderhobos, present participle murderhoboing, simple past and past participle murderhoboed)

(role-playing games, derogatory slang) To act like a murderhobo: to wander a gameworld indiscriminately killing and looting.

There was uproar in China after a Vietnamese website managed to acquire episodes not yet shown in China and asked visitors to the website to answer questions confirming their Vietnamese identity before the website loads. “This service is for Vietnamese people only. Please answer the following questions: To which country do the Hoang Sa (Paracel Islands) belong? Vietnam, China, Philippines or Japan?”. The only correct answer to the question, according to the website, is Vietnam. The islands are disputed territory.
