Two days ago CNN reported this guy had been out of sight for over a week. Probably exhausted from playing golf in Kuala Lumpur while TEPCO workers labor 16 hours a day and subsist on crackers and juice (as reported by CNN).

When angry mobs of men overthrow a government the outcome is never good. Mohamed ElBaradei belongs to the Muslim Brotherhood. Sharia law is coming to Egypt.

Been to a Wal-Mart? They have these electric carts that are supposed to be for disabled shoppers, but the only people I have seen using them make Jabba the Hut look anorexic!

Probably the system is more to blame than anything else. Postpartum depression is a know mental illness, but the Japanese medical establishment is ill-equipped to diagnose and treat it. Given the fact there is a huge stigma in Japan for people who seek psychiatric treatment, so there are few trained practioners in the psychiatric field. And I bet she never received any postpartum depression counseling before discarge, which is standard practice in most hospitals in the U.S. In this instance why isn't the police interviewing the medical staff that attended her in the hospital; dare I say there could be a case of culpable negligence against the doctor and/or medical staff.

@thetruthhurts So you would rather be disappointed when they leave you hanging at the end of season one? It would have been nice if the article mentioned the program was cancelled. The writer strike a few years ago doomed a number of programs like "The 4400" and "V". Studios did the math and figured if they had to pay residuals to writers on DVD sales marginal shows like the aforementioned would lose money overall...

I blame the Muslim minister -- shouldn't be greeting foreign dignitaries if you cannot shake hands. The Queen of England shook Michelle's hand, so what's the deal with this guy?
