Its not photoshopped, I was watching the US news bradcast as they were waiting for Obama to announce it, and you would literally watch the crowd multiply, it was weird to watch as they were singning the Star-spangled-banner and all, but I guess they thing the wars will be over, like it was all about bin Laden, not the oil!

Looks like she is suffering from POSTPARTUM DEPRESSION. A very well documented and legitimate mental disease that a very surprisingly high number of new mothers suffer from. They need to get her some help before she sees her child unsupervised again.

I say if they "collect" about 120 whales each year for "research", they need to make public their "research"! I have not heard of any significant progress in medicine or science from the Japanese "Scientist" that "collect" all these "samples". I mean, last I heard, Whales are HUGE!!! how much "blubber samples" can a "Laboratory" hold!!!

As long as Google does not quote the entire article, I think they are doing good business, as henro stated, if I wanted to read that article, I would click on the link and go to the news agencies' web page to read and be bothered with their adds!

I was divorced, still live in Japan, and my ex does not let me see my daughter. She made me sign the divorce papers that gave her full custody, that was written in KANJI, my not knowing how to reay Kanji, signed it under the pretext of it was a insurance application for us and BAM!!! Divorced and no right to my daughter whatsoever. And the legal aspects will ALWAYS side with the JAPANESE NATIONAL. I have no grounds to stand on being an American living in Japan. Now, all I have to hang on to is the simple fact that my daughter will eventually know she is not full Japanese and want to know where her father really is... that is why I do everything I can to stay close, so when she does, she can find me. I DO HOPE THEY PASS THIS SO I CAN FINALLY SEE HER! Its been 5 years!

The new Drinking and Driving Law in Japan make this a legal binding arrest. Its the same when they arrest the passengers and the owner of the establishment who serves the alcohol. I don't agree to it, but I think its a fair trade when it comes to all the knuckleheads drinking and driving like its cool!

He was probably thinking of using that money for some "extra curricular" activities with his blind date. BUSTED!
