    ‘Sales of desserts still have a lot of room for growth,’’ an official of a major convenience store chain operator said。

    The question is if body fat stores have a lot room for growth or not.

    Those desserts are one of the most dangerous things sold in a convenience store.…

    What if we quit smoking

    Well, good news is that only 3 to 5% of smokers can quit the habit by themselves. Although weak, nicotine is a highly addictive psychoactive drug.

    It seems like smoking cessation market has a bright future.

    A big hurray! Best idea of decade.

    Most of the Japanese nicotine addicts can afford 600 Yen per pack anyway.

    And more strict, nationwide smoking bans please.

    Hopefully next one is ethyl alcohol.

    Typical Japanese diet is healthier than typical American diet, but as it is said in this article, it has some problems too. High sodium content is the major issue in Japanese diet, Japanese get 3 to 5 times more sodium than they actually need. Probably the major killer in Japan…

    In a country where athletes (like Ichiro) can do beer commercials on daytime TV (actually drinking the alcoholic beverage), expect to see more alcoholics, more suicides and more ruined lives.

    IMHO ethyl alcohol addiction is much bigger problem than nicotine addiction. In Japan and everywhere else.

    My bet is on Chicago.

    Rio will not get it because they have huge security problems that cannot be solved overnight.

    Madrid is a "safe bid" but most probably they will not give it to a European city. London will host 2012 Summer Olympics and Sochi, 2014 Winter Olympics.

    Tokyo…

    Yes, tattoos are examples of "self-mutilation".

    Small tattoos, ear-lobe piercing, cosmetic surgery are classified as "Category I Self-Mutilation". Accepted by most people.

    "Category II Self-Mutilation" include gang tattoos, full-body tattoos, body piercing. Accepted by sub-cultures.

    Walsh and Rosen classification (1988).
