The recent Van Cliburn international Piano competition's Top 4 finalists were all Asians. The top figure skaters were Kim Yona of S Korea and Asada of Japan. These competitions are judged almost subjectively by world class experts. Therefore, this news is something!

My component system is Onkyo. There's too much treble. I think Denon is better. My home theater is a Macbook, a Cheap Dvd player and a video tape player, attached to an Onkyo component and Sanyo projector. I think at that price I'd rather buy a Mac mini.

I thought at first something is wrong with my reception. It's annoying. But I also heard from a friend that the TV commentators in Australia are more annoying. Ban them too?

My neighbor, married couple with 2 children often fight even at midnight. I lived in many parts of Japan but I notice only Kansai people like to talk loud and shout. Likewise, not all gaijin come from the same place. So, what's the point of this articlE?

If I buy a car I won't buy a Toyota coz even if there are only 50 cases among million cars there's still a chance that I'd have chosen one of the 50 cars. (just as I believe that I'll win the lotto jackpot someday). That's why automakers have to be very strict about safety to gain consumer trust. And for those romantically involved with Toyota, I pray that none of your friends and relatives would be a victim someday... Coz that'll really change your opinion.

Celibacy per se is not the cause of this scandal. The church's negative attitude towards homosexuals does. It seems that the best place for homosexual Catholics to "hide" is the priesthood where they gain acceptance and respect... those who are too weak to resist has easy access to their prey, the choir members and altar boys. Their are only few who are blessed with the gift of celebacy but the harvest is plenty and the laborers are few. Therefore, I agree with the abolition of celibacy.

Sad. I was a wilcom user for 4 years and saved a lot from unnecessary keitai charges. I only changed to au coz my job changed requiring me to travel to the country side where Willcom reception was poor.
