Ultimately, if Japam went nuclear nothing will really change, nobody will care, except the anti-nukers in Japan.

I have to disagree with this. Put yourselves in China's shoes. They will probably be one of the world's leaders for the next fifty years or so at least. Do you think they…

The key ingredient seems to be caffeine, with sugar, herbs and ginseng mixed in. Drinking water is probably better for one's health, but well, you know, jogging five miles a day is better for one's health, too, and not all of us do that, I'd imagine.

All meat contains E.coli bacteria

I don't think all meat contains this strain, though poor handling could have contributed to the problem.

As to how minced beef can become steaks, I think maybe people aren't clear about what dice-cut steak means. http://www.dreamstime.com/stock-photos-dice-cut-steak-image10126503

I think there's no question that the request will be granted. Obama will listen to the generals if they say more troops are needed. The US is not there to "topple Afghanistan" by the way, but to topple Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan ... at least that was the goal at one…

Well, the first thing is to help people to understand that committing suicide is NOT the way to deal with bullies. I think mansen's suggestion above about education is good, forming groups for self-defense is good, learning to deal with aggression is good, learning boxing is good, but let's face…
