    I don't recall hat Russia ever interfered with elections in the USA, so Putin has every right to be angry.

    Congratulations to England, just a matter of time now for you to get out of the EU completely and join the USA.

    Japan should just use extreme methods against them and get rid of them instead of nicely sueing them.

    Those colors are just perfect. Hard to believe there are still so many leaves on the trees down there whilst we up here in Hokkaido had -24C last night and are covered in snow.

    As a huge Tintin fan, I would get that game right away if only I had a Playstation 3.

    I am sure those cards together with the Christmas cakes will be sold out in no time. When are those girls finally thinking about making AKB48 chewing gum, then they can stick forever on us.

    This must be the Christmas revival of cherry blossoms, very nice to see cherry blossoms in winter.

    If they turn off the lights at 20:00 like sasukene says, where are all the office workers then? Nobody working overtime anymore down there in Tokyo?

    They keep religion to themselves without showing it in the open. So, on the inside they might even be more sincerely religious than others.

    Contrary to the popular slurs mentioned here, most gun owners/hunters are intelligent and respectable people who are environmentally aware and take care to not cause irreparable harm.

    This, for some reason, never even made big news but last year 2 hunters in Hokkaido shot a forest worker dead and got away. They still haven't been caught eventhough there is strict gun control here. The man left behind a wife and kid. Maybe guns should even become more restricted and only special police hunters should be allowed to kill wild animals and only if those do harm.

    You better pay attention to history. The Chinese won't make the same mistake as the Persians did. While the Spartans wait, the Chinese wait too. Since the Spartans have a thing for rage and bloodlust, they would become mad at the Chinese for waiting. Now, this is Sun Tzu's teachings, when your enemies are driven mad, they'll easily make mistakes. At the end the Spartans would take the fight to the Chinese.

    @Mack: Rink is a Scottish word meaning 'course'. I like the idea of having rinks like that in cities.

    The volume of the Pacific Ocean is approximately 622 million cubic km, so it doesn't seem to be too much of a problem then, Elevesilvan.

    I am surprised that people nowadays still use baby formula when breast feeding is supposed to be so much better.

    I love Gingko trees the most in autumn, their yellow colour is just perfect.

    It is kind of strange looking at those without snow. Elbuda, the snow blizzard happened yesterday and left me with a painful back from shovelling, it is the beginning of the season.

    I only buy Hokkaido and Kyushu products. The meat is all from overseas and I don't eat much in restaurants anymore because I can't trust the origin of products. The fish, I fish it myself.

    This accident is making publicity worldwide.Just saw it on BBC, it is also on German news. Those oyajiiis will get their Ferraris back in no time once they sold their copyrights to 'Fast and Furious - Generation 3'.
