Reminds me of the time when someone made a picture of Mary out of poo or something and called it art. No death threats there though, just a lot of disgusted people.
Well, we'll see how everything plays out in the next 10 years.

shitamchipride, I dunno what you're thinking but it seems you're totally ignoring your "source" links main agenda. The proliferation of Islam as the only religion in the world... I think that alone discredits them and only espouses that they're more about propaganda in their favor than reporting reliable news information.
Theres an old saying, "believe NONE of what you hear and HALF of what you see." sure it can go for every peice of news source around the planet, but there are times when you have to know a spade for a spade.

Spot on rupert71, the only way to avoid that is to learn conservation... Japan seems to want to plug their ears and say, "I'm not listening ~lalala~".
Well the countries for the ban should start trying to farm raise these fish, let Japan fish them to extinction in the wild and keep the bluefin ban in place for a nice little disciplinary action.

The drug cartels just don't get it, but then again all they want is money. If they were by some horrible chance to get control of Mexico, their country will cease to exist as a country. International trade would stop, and only illegal trade would continue, with no taxes for services to assist the public and only the drug lords inhaling the cash and attempting to gain control of the remnants.
Hopefully a nice strong dose of karma/justice/divine intervention will be visited amongst those pieces of fecal matter.

Its only the bluefin tuna that is subject to the ban until the species recovers. I dunno what species this is, but I understand its not bluefin.
Being a hunter (wild game such as elk, deer, moose etc.) I understand there are seasons that I don't hunt because I understand what is required to conserve a species so that it doesn't become endangered.
Japan just needs to understand they have to hold back their own selfish desires for the sake of their future. It doesn't have to get so bad that they're forced to stop eating tuna because it gets driven to near extinction. Conservation is what matters, not they "Oh my they're not extinct yet" mentality.

Good old China, always having something corrupt to make their "polished" face presentation look just as hollow as it's always been. Fake conservation, fake wealth, fake compassion... Without any quality virtues to back them up they're going to keep failing on all fronts.
Even if they turned democratic or free republic over night they still don't have the peoples morality to stop corrupt agendas. You don't know what you've got until its gone China...

Oh almost missed the part of the caption that said "Yotaro was designed to help young parents to learn about raising a baby." I was about to say, last thing the Japanese need is a robotic baby.
Still it would be more effective if they made the robot more baby sized and realistic than oddly shaped... being kawaii isn't the main thing with having children, its about raising the child and preparing them to become a healthy, hopefully productive, responsible human being to join human society as a whole. Love, discipline, and wisdom are 3 of the main things as well as a desire for knowledge to ready a child for their developing life.

Actually, try to look them up on PBS.org if it doesn't lock out other countries IP adresses you can see better documentary programs on streaming video. I highly recommend it.

I only enjoy good documentaries. The Cove does bring attention to certain issues, but its not my type of documentary to watch.
Anyone who says documentaries are boring need to watch shows like "Nature", "Nova", and a lot of other series that have some great great information. Unfortunately I don't think Japan has those kinds of documentary shows which is a shame since the format and presentation is fantastic.

Oh I dunno Some14some, how about some people who have relatives and family in Pakistan? Or maybe some Pakistani immigrants? Just because you don't care doesn't mean others don't.

Oh great, another religious fanatic with a family. He's chosen all right, chosen among the hellbound. Pure bloodline from incest? He's competent too which makes it all the more reason to totally nail him to the rest of his life in prison.
I hope he'll get some pure justice served to him in prison.

Uhm ok Badsey, if you say so. Heaven forbid should a country actually try to show compassion in your eyes. The other option is to just leave them alone and let them live on in already miserable conditions eh? With all the earthquakes, tsunamis, mudslides, and all sorts of wonderful natural disasters should anyone help another country out in their time of need?
Just remember those who help others may need help themselves someday, and thankfully the US has a pretty decent track record when it comes to assistance when assistance is needed and may have a much better opportunity to ask for aid when aid is needed. Reminds me of the small african village that when they heard about 9/11 they wanted to help by sending cattle because its all they could do to assist those they thought were in need.

20 years is too long. I hate to say this but I think all supply should be cut off. It sucks, its horrible for the already poor people that need aid, but its an already sunken boat that needs to be left underwater until hopefully these corrupt folks don't have any means to support their own wicked causes.

Nothing like half arsed democracy where they apparantly don't know about how to NOT count your chickens before they hatch. They should keep their mouths shut until after the results.

Well post op or not I think there are still are probably missing that would make this person really a woman. I for one can't wait until the operation is so perfected all one has to do is throw a switch and just remove the brain from a male body into a fully funtional cloned female body or vice versa. But this snip snip, hormone injecting, alternating sex change as it is makes me sick.
I'm pretty sure any man thats not really interested in transexuals will come across some very unwelcome suprises.

Ahmenijad is nothing but a non internet using troll. Same goes with a couple of others here chuckle but unfortunately they have access. Well everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Trying to convince people that their thinking is the truth when they have no hard core facts of their own is just wrong though. Speculation is not truth, and convincing yourself that your speculation is truth without having the means to absolutely prove it is plain ignorance. The only people that can prove anything are the ones that either initiated 9/11 and the ones that carried it out. Since no one here is them or psychic its best to just keep bad speculation to yourselves.

I say phooey on ice skating rink fads. Slap on a pair of inline skates find a nice path for biking and skating and have fun! Or they don't have normal skating rinks I guess.

This brings to mind a saying I've heard, "Work smart, not hard".
Agree with most posters on here that its not about working harder, its about making sure people do their jobs properly and check themselves.
When quality goes down it means someones not doing their job.
