POPSMeet Japan's First Western Geisha "Sayuki denies she's a flawless example of Japan's ancient flower and willow world. "Being a geisha takes a lifetime to perfect," she deflects, as she clacks along in lacquer sandals that she wears slightly too small to make her size-8 feet look more petite. Sayuki, who was born in Melbourne, Australia, became the first foreign woman in the notoriously closed profession's 400-year history to formally debut as a geisha two years ago, in late 2007. "I've only just begun," she says. "To many of my geisha sisters, I'm still a walking disaster."

POPSKangaroo Slashes Drowning Dog's Owner "It was a shock at the start because it was a kangaroo, about 5ft high. They don't go around killing people. "Then, all of a sudden, I realised the first hit (he) gave me opened up a wide gash above my eye and blinded me." Mr Rickard said the onslaught left him "flailing away underwater, carrying a dog with a kangaroo ripping into me". "All I could do was just keep pushing for the bank and he was trying to push me under the water," he continued. The wounded man said he ended the battle by elbowing the beast in the throat. Kangaroos rarely attack humans, but will fight if they feel threatened.
