To me she could be said to be half caucasian/asian. But I don´t take this pageants seriously. There must very serious bribery involved.

@ Richard, if you were having a conversion from US license to a Japanese one, then you would need to side-park. But foreigners and Js getting a J-license won´t have to side-park, only reverse-park.

Richard:
Sorry to tell you that side-parking is required only when a J is trying to obtain a manual transmission license, or 1 out of 10 licensees. The 9 others will have to reverse during the test. No side-parking for the automatic transmission test is required.

that´s my point. In a lot of countries if you can´t side-park then you don´t pass the test.
And sorry for saying that you don´t know how to drive. Perhaps you drive better than me. But in US if you can´t side-park then it´s understood that you can drive, only partially.

the you´re confessing you don´t know how to drive. Have you ever seen any Japanese driver side-parking? I never saw one - they only can park head-on. And it happens that I side-park every day in front of my office and I still see some pedestrians watching the sequence of maneuvers.

3 minutes? I thought that Police manual would teach the officer that he had somehow to, at least, handcuff the criminal (not criminals, because he was informed so, thus the theory that there could me more people inside the house is ruined) AND THEN ask for help. He could even have tasered the guy. Now, my guess is that this officer will take the back door to leave his life - unfortunately.

That´s why Republicans are losing their ground: these radicals, truth-distorters like Chenney still captivate a diminutive crowd.

Skip: like you, I think that everybody that died on that terrible day were innocent. They didn´t have to die that way.
Now, are you going to keep mourning for the rest of your life? Or do you want things like that never to happen again? Well, I do. That´s why we should stop whining and act, talk, like we are doing now.
And in my opinion, the reasons that made those 19 men to decide to take such a bloody, criminal action should be talked.

LostinNagoya: Some of you guys do need to study History some more. Only a blind man can not see beyond 9/11 itself to know that there was more than simply 19 rich terrorists behind that ugly act.
Bingo Likeitis! Some guys here think that killing the messenger of the problem will get them rid of the problem, as the saying goes...

Can you prove that? Or are you going to be among the non-sense ones?

I agree with the results. I take China as an example. It´s a different situation, but nonetheless we saw last decade how China is becoming more and more open to changes - that actually are happening there. One easily can see this is the result of a better daily life: more comfort, information, culture, international exchange, and a sense of more freedom than, say, the 1970´s and 1980´s generations. Of course, the government still is way too beligerant, but again, not so as last decades. The richer China gets, the more ¨peaceful¨ it will be. This could work for muslim countries too. Western nations should realize that they are there to stay, it´s close to impossible to change milenar cultures because we feel like doing so. We have to adapt to them, to reach solid peace agreements, and let the money flow both sides. I think that´s what Mr. Obama has in his mind - it would be a huge step towards peace and prosperity in comparison to the backward steps we took so far with failed wars.

I somehow admire her, for thinking of her child and not killing the two of them, via suicide, as we see frequently. It must not be easy to sell your body. Even for a living. And those of us wanting to help her, we don´t need to go after her. There must be someone living the same hell just around your corner.
