the 3th paragraph states an incorrect amount. it wasn't 20 bilion, it was over 2 billion. hence the big blowup over the compensation being 1/3 of the total value of the takeover.

the best part is that these idiots stayed in the apartment where the crime took place.
on another note, their parents should also be imprisoned. how could they raise such callous children? the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, me thinks.

seems like zensho wanted to pursue their more profitable brand which is sukiya. smart move b/c sukiya is the #1 gyudon joint in japan now.

wendy's has arguably the best burgers in the biz. great combo of ketchup, mayo and pickles on the wendy's burger. it'll be interesting to see what the new burgers will taste like.

you know, i'm all for "to each his own" but this fascination with AKB48 borders on lunasea. their lack of b'zness sense and talent is egregious. i would kill myself if my morning musume would buy their cd's. it woulbe be my dream come true if they disbanded.

ok, so maybe a teenage girl doens't know any better and is frightened to tell her parents, but for a 27 year old woman to carelessly dump her baby in a toilet is unforgivable. hitch a ride to kumamoto for effin sakes and spare the baby.
sometimes, i really do lack faith in humanity.

love the name but i gotta beg to differ with ya. can you cite any case within the past 10-20 years where a defendant was given the death penalty for killing one person for financial gain? i'll even throw in any type of homicide where there was only one person killed. i'll give you an eye of thundera of you can cite more than two.

why punish the ordinary workers for what the gov't and senior management did? reducing the workforce is such a simplistic way to reduce TEPCOs outlays.
