saru_an: It is due to other trains being on the tracks, such as the slower Kodama and Hikari services. Where the line all Nozomi, 330kph would be quite possible. Also, in the section Nagoya-Tokyo, trains are limited to 270kph due to concerns over sound pollution.

Well, he did break state protocol. Then again, the US does have some things to apologize about, even to Japan. Such as the direction the country took after the crisis in 1989.

It might also be gratituity. Without 'loans' from Japan, Obama would not be able to keep Capitalism going…

It's interesting to see how sacred Christianity still is to westerners. Perhaps then we should play it nice so that we don't hurt their feelings?

Also, the remartk about Christianity stating that the nature is there for man to use, is as far as I know true. We learnt it…

Sadly the EU is moving in this direction as well... at least the Japanese judges have some spine left.

Wether a monarchy is irrelevant or not is besides the point, Japan is a democracy (in name at least) and the majority of the people wishes to keep the monarchy. As it is not a technical matter, of which the best solution can be scientifically identified, the subjective view of…

Just hope jgov wont use this tragedy to push for mass vacination against H1N1. In Sweden the government is doing just that, and they're planning to use the vaccine by baxter international (the one that contains a lot of mercury), which has not been thoroughly tested.

Taddeo: But as far as I know it, the US court didn't. If it did give custody to Noriko, then why did she kidnap the kids? Perhaps you are right, I'm hardly an expert on this subject.

What a mess ^^. It seems that having kids should be avoided until you know for sure things will work out, then again you have reproductive degradation after 30...

Now that I think about it, the US might need the games the most. Chicago is a dump, and only receiving the games would let Obama convince the congress to let him rebuild it with tax money. A giant project like this is just what the US needs to move…
