Very orderly, slightly sombre hanami it seems - maybe these Tokyo folks did follow Ishihara-san's order? As foxie said, where is the grog? Seems weird...

It would be nice if the Yaks downed guns and called a truce just for a while. I guess extortion and drug-dealing must go on despite the disasters right now.

Ogura makes no sense. If he wants everyone to "focus on saving lives and rebuilding" - why not cancel the J-League too? Just admit it was cancelled due to schedule clashes - not some other bogus reason.

BTW - I'm glad "flat-white" gets a start - you non-Antipodeans can now order one when you come down under!

I'm sorry realist - but a good 10-20 percent of what you find in an Oxford dictionary is already American in origin. How about "O.K."? Would you ditch that from the Oxford book as well, on account of it being American-derived slang? All languages are evolving - quite quickly in the case of cyber-slang! Many I still don't know...

These three truly are the scum of Japan. We can only wish them misfortune and bad karma wherever they go - for the rest of their miserable lives.

Well done to the ex-U.S. G.I., Johnny. I dislike every artist he manages/owns - but they are all doing their bit to help out (especially S.M.A.P), so respect.

She's a little champion! Children are the real optimists here, they will learn through this disaster and honour their many friends and family who died. All the best Risa-chan!

Cheers Smith and Mukai. Let's all just hope - and cross our fingers - things begin to get better soon, and the TEPCO management start doing the right thing and taking the correct advice. However, the government is now stating that the radiation leak may take several months to contain...

So do we Sarge! But the big problem will be in that 20/30 km radius, and at the moment it's not looking good in terms of people moving back in there any time in the future. We are lucky compared to those folk, and the poor folk up north.

I live 35 miles from Dai-ichi, I'm still here and absolutely salute the low-level workers there at the coal-face - risking their futures, like the two poor young men mentioned in another article. They deserve better.
My gripe is with the management of TEPCO, and the Japanese govt. who have clearly not taken ownership of this crisis. Not having adequate safety gear for these poor men is absolutely unforgivable. It is almost impossible to be optimistic with TEPCO management still calling the shots here, throwing men into a situation they have made more dangerous for.

And amazingly, this is the biggest Power Company in Asia, and one of Japans' richest corporations. Does ANYONE out there have confidence that this mob - who evidently have no training in disasters and radiation management - can rectify this unprecedented problem?

Luckily, I don't need to fork out the airfare to visit Chernobyl: Dai-Ichi is just 60kms down the road!

The Americans are doing a wonderful job, true professionals - and all the media talk about some Japanese wanting them out of Okinawa etc is all but gone now.

Rest in Peace, little boy. Let's all hope the awful cowards who did this get a sentence comparable to say, a corporate criminal in Japan. ie at least 20 years in the slammer. But I am seriously worried they will only get 5 or 10 years. I find myself asking again: Who is looking after the children?
