    Commendable! I'm impressed y her sincerity. It seems like she really puts the wealth and influence that have come as a result of her celebrity to positive use.

    As mentioned in some of the other comments, I think it's just a matter of experience. Although how one reacts depends on an individual's culture and personality etcetera, humans from any country might behave similarly when interacting with someone they view as exotic. Then over time and through experience we tend to adjust and what was once so near the "exotic" side on our scale of normality has shifted several notches in the other direction.

    The thing that can sometimes be tiring and difficult is having to go through the whole process of being accepted almost every time we begin a new relationship.

    “After Asia, the next step is for Korean culture to conquer the world,” Yun told AFP.

    "You will be assimilated," he added in an emotionless monotone "Resistance is futile."

    "kazukai" = "kozukai"

    When the king of Bhutan came to visit Japan I did some research about his country (i.e. looked at the Wikipedia page;) and learned Bhutan is the first country in the world to have banned the sale of tobacco. Happiness rates increased by 8.96% (totally made-up figure).

    It will never happen but I'd love to see tobacco sale banned. Disgusting bloody habit.

    Everyone is busy practising their lip-syncing in order to ensure a performance that differs not at all from their CDs.

    Hindsight is 20/20 but they should have known that transporting anything via the rectum bears risk of physiological damage. Soon after the fact a Japanese customs officer quipped, "Wrecked 'em? It nearly killed 'em!"

    did it say what he did to serve 23 years, thats alot of time so must be something bad.

    Yeah, it was written pretty deep into the story though (halfway through the first sentence) so anyone could have missed it, really. "Attempted murder"

    i don't see an age but that just described about half of the Japanese population

    It was hidden next to his name in the second sentence. He's 40.

    If you guys need some more help with this complicated text please let me know, hey?

    "A man who drinks three large bottles of beer every day might become an alcoholic in 15 years"

    Wow, it takes a lot of effort to become an alcoholic! I'm just not dedicated enough...

    Talking while she's brushing her teeth. "Hahmawnmwambwam" "What?" Ugh, I'm sure it can wait until after you're done.

    My favorite Japanese rocker is Kenichi Asai (浅井健一). As well as solo work he has made great music with bands like Blankey Jet City, Jude and Sherbets. Check him out.

    Hm, when I saw this story on the news it certainly made me ask myself, "Why would someone do that?" I haven't come to any satisfying conclusions. A lot of people are saying that he did what he did because of the way Japan is but I disagree. Anyone anywhere would feel desperate if they felt that they had limited prospects and no one who cared for them. Anyway, there isn't much point to blaming this or that.

    I guess, most of all, this tragedy reminds me that I have to do what I can to support the people I care about within my own little sphere of influence.
