Las Vegas usually has guards escorting the money vendors in the casinos, maybe this place should take a page from their book on not letting employees carrying large sums of the company's money by themselves.

sasukene says: "Take it from an hotel industry insider that these sorts of things can, and do happen in all countries and not just Japan."
Hey sasukene why don't you come to California or Las Vegas Nevada and try it here and just see how long you can stay in a hotel room before they catch on - you might get away with 3 days at the most before security comes knocking on your door.

The simple solution is to have girls wear pants and boys were skirts. If girls wear pants then when they are on the escalator there will be nothing to see. And if boys wear skirts then when they are on the escalator NO one will want to see!!!

"According to JR West, Omuro was on his break at the time of the incident"
Oh thank goodness he was on his break and NOT on company time when he did this!

It must have been his first time at a Yoshinoya's and found it was Pretty crappy food so maybe the guy just wanted a refund and they refused to give him one so he got one himself.

Living in Southern California its just one of those things you can't run away from - you try and ready yourself for it but its almost impossible to do so because you don't know how powerful it will be. We could see 2012 in 2011 !!!!

"Australia said the ship sank after being torpedoed by the Japanese, but Japan says the circumstances surrounding the sinking are unclear."
Apparently another attack by Godzilla that is blamed on Japan.
(I just found out that Godzilla is even in Spell Checker - talk about famous!).

"Police said the man posed as a customer" So what was the guy suppose to pose as - a robber? That has to be the dumbest statement I've seen from the Police in a long time.
"When she took them out of the showcase, the man put them on his finger and held them up to the light. Then, he ran off." Why would you allow a customer to put 4 (four) rings on the finger at the same time - who trained this employee?

Kapuna - Why would anyone build , or buy a home or business around any airfield
Hey Kapuna, have you ever heard of the El Toro Marine Base (Air Wing)in California - it use to be surrounded by strawberry fields but then they (civilians) started building houses right up to the runway (and of course the amazing thing is that people bought them). I was looking for a Condo near there and one set I was looking at - well when the F-18's came over head they were only 150 feet above us.
Well the same thing that is happening on Okinawa already happened years ago with El Toro - under pressure from the civilians they abandoned El Toro and moved to other existing Marine/Navy air bases.
So what on earth is the big deal here. If Japan doesn't want us there then lets MOVE OUT!

You can now mark this in the history books as the start of America turning into a third world country because after they raise taxes to over 55% of your income (and all other things that they can dream up to tax) to pay for this there will be no middle class left - only the rich and the poor. And just think world, we Americans did it to ourselves without any outside help!
By the way - Merry Christmas to everyone at JT

Am afraid that the only way these girls are going to get any attention is if they wear nothing as they work in the rice paddies!

"He told police that he had “set them free to hunt.”
Well it seemed to have worked! Is it possible that these were fighting dogs and this "farmer" was worried about the police catching him with fighting dogs? (are fighting dogs even illegal in Japan?)
By the way TJ your headline "Seven dogs bite five students in Mie school grounds" makes this sound more like a High School Math Question - lets see if I divide 7 dogs by 5 students I get ??? number of students bitten.

Maybe for THAT gaijin being nude in front of the same six is embarrassing but in U.S. we are trained from Junior High on to be use to it e.g. taking showers after gym class (where did this guy go to school at?).
When I was stationed at Mt. Fuji I really enjoyed being able to just lay down in the sauna room with your head on a brick (now that's relaxing) unlike in the U.S. where everyone sits up. And then topping that off with a quick shower and into the hot bath - Oh yeah baby the Japanese know how to relax. The only thing missing is a big screen TV with the sports channel on - of course that could prove deadly since people would stay in the hot bath too long watching the game.

Again we are left with so little information as to just WHY did this guy try to commit suicide. Its not even worth reporting this stuff since it happens so often unless you give us some insight in to this guys reason(s) - especially since this guy survived his suicide attempt (of course if you can't even do a suicide right then this guy probably has "LOOSER" written all over his face anyways). This guy could of had some real issues in his life but do to incomplete reporting we will never know.
Moderator: Readers, the word is "loser," not "looser." Many of you recently on many discussion threads do not seem to know the difference.

electric2004 - you have some nice ideas but am afraid the regular Postman might not enjoy the glass pieces or the electrical shock or at the very least her mail may look a little torn up or burnt - otherwise it was a good idea.

We don't get much background on this 60-yr-old man. Is it possible he was homeless (or his wife kicked him out) and figured if he played with a policewoman he might have free food and room for a couple of nights. The fact he did this in front of a police station and says that he didn't know it was there tends to tell me that this man's mind is not running on all cylinders.
