i got screwed with the NW/Delta merger. It used to be that one could use Continental miles with NW. Now I guess you can't. So if ANA will give miles to contienetal, can you "double dip" since ANA also shares with United? Use your ANA miles for both United and…

There are radical sects of Judaism, but I don't see radical Jews going around in the US military shooting other soldiers becase the U.S. is seeming to fall back on it's pledges to Israel, nor do I see radical evangelicals shooting up military hospitals because they can give abortions. For…

If the J-cops want to catch this nut, all they have to do is start by arresting the plastic surgeons and all others that have helped him including his parents for aiding and abetting a felon. I assume under Japan's law, ignoracne of the law is no excuse (someone correct…

If I were her, and if she was in debt to the Yaks as some have said, I would just start "singing" and naming names. Why not, either you face execution by the Malaysians or by the Yaks you turn on. Either way, you are dead so she may as…

I imagine that if called upon to act, the Japanese military will be like the Germany military and their actions in Afghanistan. They will not fight and only limited to doing humanitarian work and no combat duties.

tkoid2 good points you are making. Will Japan be willing to cough up the dough to provide more for thier own defence? I doubt it. South Korea had the same idea when the former President wanted them to take a more active role. When they started to fully understand and…

888naf, I guess you must be breaking their rules then by putting data onto an unprotected cd/dvd that could be left anywhere.

I also guess they haven’t issued enough protected encrypted usb flash drives like “military grade ironkey” and made and exceptions in their usb lockdown policy so those devices…

They have disabled all USB drives on Navy computers, so if you want to take work around with you, you need to burn it to a CD, load it to your home computer, burn it to another and load it back at work. Until they start selling software via thumb…

SushiSake3, FYI, I have served my country with 20 plus years in the USN. So if they let me back in, I would go (actually, I will have to anyway since even though I am retired, I am still on the list to be called back up at the President's…

I am glad that he went, but like I said, I think it was for publicity. If as some say it was not, then why the story at all. He should have just went and not worry about it. To go in the "still of the night" to me seems…
