  According to police, the couple forced the girl to remember over 20 behavioral rules, including saying “itadakimasu” before eating and remembering to eat slowly.

  Good intentions (not the list part), but throwing a kid in a washing machine is totally wrong. They shouldn't have had the kid at 18 in the first place.

  I've yet to see anyone with a Go, and I can't imagine it being very popular.

  It seems that no one actually wants this Sony Go seeing it has way to many draw backs like short battery life being the number one complaint and the control buttons are apparently not to many users liking as well it can't use the disk from the PSP meaning they need to buy all new games, which bring up the next bigger problem kids don't have credit cards so kids can't purchase the games that must be downloaded via the Internet.

  ^ ^ that, right there. SONY is quite good at making products that no one wants, yet remaining in business for some reason.

  The trailer looks interesting. It doesn't look sappy like most Japanese romance movies usually are.

  Neither party is popular.

  I wonder why. Either way you vote, you're screwed.

  Cool stuff and all that, but you need to be a millionaire to keep up with it.

  Honestly I can't stand SAS's music - but Mr. Kuwata is really funny on TV. I wish him the best for a speedy recovery.

  But any move toward Internet regulation or monitoring by the U.S. government or industry could trigger fierce opposition from the public.

  Absolutely. Who in their right mind would trust this?

  and yet we bask in the glow of cheap plastic and how every bottle and appliance is made and built in China. We are not blameless but are actively reinforcing China's behaviour. if we had any class we'd stop propping up a regime that sells away its human rights for a $4 hair dryer. That is, if we both to care.

  I posted this in another thread already, but good luck finding things that aren't made in China. I don't want to support fascist China, but finding products not made there is extremely difficult.

  But the letter, written in May, was rejected by Hawker’s family, who believe the man’s apology and confession were a ploy to gain leniency from the jury when his trial starts next year, the report said.

  Smart parents. Let's hope Ichihashi hangs from the rafters from this one.
