i agree with Klein, since Japan does not allow dual citizenship after a certain age, he would have had to turn in his US passport and RENOUNCE US CITIZENSHIP at the moment of receiving his J-Passport. Unless he figured out a way of keeping both, but its highly unlikely.
If the kids were born in Japan and have J passports, then he's got that against him as well.
This issue could raise a lot of problems for Japan with the NK abduction issue.
a lot more information needs to come out to be fair to both sides.

i have seen some of these prototypes in trade shows. Doesn't look so impressive... Since only one eye is open at any one time, the screen looks half as bright. these work great with CAD and other industrial applications, but not for your everyday variety show. i hope they have fixed many of these problems by now.

i agre 100% with furuigakko. thats why you see so many more single people out there with 0 social skills. Once things get involved they feel too lazy to keep going and just move on to the next disaster. This will have terrible social implications for Japan in the coming 5-10 years.

A? B? C??? if the lady is not a minor then why all the secrecy? If it's a crime then it should be public record.
her Ex cheated on her, so i'm sure she suffered more at the hands of her EX than for the 15 minutes she hung out with Oshio.
i guess things got carried away, and Oshio acted negligently. He should not be given a slap on the wrist.

Protectionism should only be used in developing industries that can stand on their own after a few years, or as retaliatory strategy against protectionism abroad.
The blanket Buy USA provisions are anti-competitive and result in an inneficient use of money, monopolies and higher prices.

10% of the people in the US are bringing everything down. Bill Maher was right it WAS a Million Moron March.
All these disruptions in town halls and in joint sessions of congress are just ways to make it seem as if the entire nation is falling apart. the crazies are rolling in and there's no stopping them.
Even McCain, who was directly commended during Obama's speech as a contributor of good ideas, could not find one single compliment of Obama's speech, what a ****** lack of class. He needs to get back on his Straight Talk Express to Nowhere.
There's public schools and colleges out there, but private universities are able to survive and excel, why not with health care?
Wilson should be reprimanded severely. He initially apologized, but he's back to his game and has already raised $1 million. What a loser!

Japanese people are used to sleeping on the subways. Perhaps her probable comatose state of awareness led to this. I lived in Manhattan for many years, and you grow eyes on the back of your head there.
When Yo Yo Ma lost his violin, he had the taxi receipt.
all this publicity may just make it harder for her to get the violin back.
hope she finds it, it's not an easy thing to fence.
