That's great,
This is about 60km North of the nuclear power plant which is JUST being found to have come out a lot worse for wear than previously thought. Not a single mention of this in the story. Is that not to jeapodise the economic recovery I wonder? Think it is time to get out of this place!

Gimme a break. I pray I'm never brought before a jury in this country.
This juror should be given the flick.

Japan was built on the lives sacrificed in the past? The emperor himself has a slightly twisted view of history too it seems. Japan's enormous death toll was due to its own fanatical war-mongering. It was the efforts of those who rebuilt from the ashes that gave rise to "modern" Japan.

A few years ago Japan admitted exceeding their bluefin tuna catch quota by 120,000 tonnes, though experts suggest it was a lot more.
So one whale under the limit? I7d call that a slap in the face.

I guess the subtext really is simply: Famous woman marries someone she likes.
I mean, it could be that. I may well be wrong.
By why would you marry someone ordinary unless you actually liked them?
Think about it. Till next time.

Is this really the fault of the doctor? Or is it just a beat-up?
I can easily imagine this being said in a light-hearted/ironic/sarcastic way as a throwaway line.
DO people really believe this guy thinks we should try to reduce life-expectancy in Japan?
Come on! Light(en) up!

It most definately IS a firing offence.
What else does this jerk get up to in his professional duties is the question you have to ask.
He has been caught out as a person UNFIT in the role of teacher.
And quite frankly no, I don't think it would be that hard to replace him.

The T-shirt is no different to any other inane English T shirts you see. There is ZERO reference to the charity target on the shirt and why the hell wasn't the text written in Japanese?

The message: "We care so much about poverty that we can only raise money if we get a topless celebrity in return".

Her shoelaces are undone. That is sending a dangerous message to the young people.
It also appears her character is based on someone from a Dicken's novel. Has she been working in a coal-mine or something?

Hey, if he's a criminal, or a member of an "illegal syndicate", they can just arrest him when he goes to pick up his check.
This kind of issue reminds me of the whole whaling for research issue.
The Japanese tie themselves in knots because...well...because they're Japanese.

So what, we can conclude that the value of interviewing this guy is less than ￥10,000 ? probably appropriate.
