Job fairs are scary or any huge gathering...the air is full of arrogance and competition.

Agree with other comments. F1 is only rich people or for the few in this world who are interested in cars. For the average person F1 cars are noisy and practically useless!

All transport apart from heavy goods vehicles should be electric powered. There is no real need for people to travel long (and high speed) distances around Japan as there are always services within a few miles.

That is the funniest thing I read in a long time! Not like what electric2004 said, but because in Asian culture there is no such thing as soft-image parents!!!
"Why did you apply for a job at that company?" would already be too comforting.

Out of all of them I like Daniel Craig the least. He looks like a Russian or of Eastern European descent.

In a free society (as oppose to a nanny one) the individual is responsible all their own actions. The responsibility of the bar owner stops as soon as he does what he's suppose to do: by serving drinks under demand from the paying customer. If the customer then ends up causing an accident it's their problem. So, NO, the bar owners should not be prosecuted for serving drinks!
Also, NO to the second question! If I knew my driver were drunk I wouldn't want to climb into their cars in the first place. Adults are not kids, again, they should be responsible for looking after themselves.
Posted in: Should bar owners who serve alcohol to customers knowing they are driving be liable for prosecution if the customer is involved in a traffic accident? Should passengers in cars driven by drunk drivers be also liable for prosecution?

Among the modern population yes. But traditionally it will be seen as an improper job (also perceived as low paying job).

Improve it's national image. Especially amongst it's Asian neighbours which will be the main source of tourists for the future.
Japanese people should improve their attitude towards foreigners. Putting up "Japanese only" signs outside restaurants and bars do not help at all.

There are many sources of "sex education". It's all a matter of who gets there first to educate them, the youngsters.
