Because in Japan a lot of people spend 10 hors at work and then need to travel home.
This leaves little time to "exercise".
Than again, 12oz or 355ml curls on the weekend do count.

Its a huge time and cost dedication commitment on the part of the parent. Its a full time job requiring ample motivation from child and parent. It would be like raising an olympics athlete. It builds a competitive and independent character.
If I had time, I'd work with my daughter (baby now) to get in these groups - providing she had an interest and certain natural abilities.
And if she finished number 5? What would be your next life goal?

"after running through a red light at a busy intersection."
Could be a lot of reasons.
What was the road conditions? Wet, ice?
Did someone step out into the crosswalk as soon as the light changed causing him to swerve?
Was he on the keitai?
Did his friends cover his eyes?
Does not matter what was the reason, he was neglect in controlling the car and now will pay the price.

New MCD"s slogan: "Your ass is not getting fat quick enough, so we'll deliver"!
I'll take 5 Big Mac's and fries please,add a couple of shakes and throw in a few choco pies.
That should be 1,500 yen at least.

try lining up Coca-Cola from Japan, U.S., Mexico, and then tell me that they're the same. They're different.
True that!

The way to keep this from happening is to stamp "Sony Music" at the bottom of each "Top Secret" document.
You what what can happen if you put any Sony copyright materials on line!

This vote means Nakaima will discuss this with Tokyo and get it done. Then some changes and reductions can happen.
And you think this will happen before the next reelection?
Two words: buuhhaaaaa.

Kind of don't like it at all. But.
"a female on duty at the border i am going to demand a vigorous pat down and then request a second opinion"..
Unless she looks like a United Flight Attendant!
Got my weasel grabbed by a sweet Korean thing several years ago in Kimpo (Gimpo) But, would not like Uncle Bill getting grabby in S.F.

"For the U.S. to do nothing is hypocrisy, but maybe because Kim did not threaten the presidents father they will do nothing".
Are you saying the USA is the World Police?

You know WHAT's pathetic?
Putting ground troop on an island with no way to get them off to do any good.
Does anyone really think China will attack Okinawa? What would be the point?
The fight is what's under or surrounding the islands and the international boundaries.
You can comment, but what about the Marines in the island? Well the US has a way to send these boys into the fight with hours if needed, but don't let that stop you from posting your rebuttal.

(two women at the same time, is a bad, bad idea),
Learn to read dude:
1 two women at the same time is not bad, it's fun.
2 Assange had consensual sex with both women who then turned on him after becoming aware of each other’s relationships.
Pretty sure if both were in the room at the same time, one would have noticed the "same time thing"

Did anyone see if the scaffolding was bamboo on the news?
Saw this in Macau and if it was, that would go up like a match stick. Scary way to go.
RIP.
