    It's good to see a response to the fascists. I recommend a good egging next time they pass through Shin Okubo.

    Cheney is the traitor. Why isn't he held accountable for his lies and crimes?

    I hope the media will continue to use the term "Abenomics" when it has failed. Instead, they will probably retire the term and try to blame the failure on something else (probably foreigners).

    Dick Cheney is the traitor, starting a war based on a pack of lies and sending thousands of Americans to their deaths so his mates can make a profit.

    The Blue Samurai had wished to do better than a 4-0 loss to Brazil in a friendly in neutral Poland last October

    A 3-0 loss is better than a 4-0 loss. Maybe by next year they will have it down to a 2-0 loss. Ganbare!

    Many of the countries listed as having the highest population growth rates will descend into civil war before long as pressure on resources becomes unbearable.

    Instead of moaning, change the law. If Google's global revenue is, e.g. $30 billion, and $1 billion of that arises from the UK, then UK tax should be paid on 1/30th of Google's annual profits.

    All they need to do is to cite prosecutions where their surveillance evidence was used to secure a conviction. I look forward to the publication of the list.

    What I find odd is the fuel surcharge is paid in Yen, yet they base it on the dollar price of jet fuel. It seems they take no account of exchange rates in this calculation.

    For example, Zone F works out to be Y21000 when the fuel price is $115 per barrel. When the exchange rate is Y80 per dollar JAL makes $262.50 in fuel surcharges. If the exchange rate falls to Y100 per dollar JAL only has $210 dollars to pay for the fuel. So, either the fuel surcharge doesn't cover their true costs, or they were overcharging when the Yen was strong.

    Note that they are ripping off US customers by charging them $259 for the fuel surcharge when Japanese pay only Y21000. It's daylight robbery.

    Mr Ueda claims that Japan is making efforts to improve its "justice" system, but this is not true. Why aren't all interrogations filmed? Why aren't lawyers allowed to be present at questioning? Why do prosecutors lie and make up evidence?

    It's no good getting angry when people laugh at your absurd claims Mr Ueda. You must humbly accept that Japanese "justice" leaves a lot to be desired, instead of having the cheek to talk about advanced countries.

    I wonder why they selected this particular route? It doesn't appear to be the most useful service. One bus per hour between places that are about 30 minutes walk apart.

    Surely it would have been better to have buses following the Chuo line route, from Tokyo out to Tachikawa. Run them every 20 minutes every day.

    The trial service seems to have been designed to fail and no doubt it will be discontinued the minute the Olympics bid is decided.

    You can buy an 500 GB external HDD for Y4683, which is cheaper than this Windows-only cable.

    Computers definitely are listening to your calls and the use of certain trigger words will cause them to be monitored by a human. If you are up to no good you must assume that any unencrypted communications will be intercepted and respond accordingly.

    Some "academics" recently claimed that Dr Who was "thunderingly racist" because the Doctor was always played by a white man. In doing so they exposed their own racial prejudices by ignoring the fact that the Doctor is not a human, but a Time Lord. As such, the racial and sexual distributions of humans have no relevance to the appearance and sex of the Doctor.

    Mind you, it is the BBC, so davestrousers is probably on the right track with his prediction, although he has forgotten about the need to represent the disabled.

    These alcohol-free "beers" are awful and full of chemicals. I don't think there is a law that says you have to show ID when buying them, as they are no different from soft drinks. It's the retailers that have made their own rules about it.

    I think these drinks are quite attractive to children. My son wanted one when he saw them, although they wouldn't sell it to him. But then I bought one and let him have a taste of it and now he doesn't want any more.

    What part of his job as Osaka mayor required this fool to travel to the US in the first place? It's about time big mouth shut his trap and got on with his job. The only time he needs to talk in public is to discuss Osaka issues and what he is doing as mayor. If he wants to go back to clowning around on TV he should resign as mayor.

    Whatever the North Koreans do they will never be able to satisfy some people. There will always be "reports", like the one above, of more abductees and the issue will never be resolved. I think the Japanese government prefer it that way: they like having difficult neighbours like North Korea as it gives them an excuse to build up the military.

    Mugabe has destroyed Zimbabwe's economy, yet he has the cheek to tell the South Africans they should follow the same, failed policies.

    He's right about Blair though.
