Only in Japan are pregnant women turned away during the actual delivery of the child. This is a huge commentary on all aspects of Japanese society. Cold, uncaring, economically devastated, disorganized, and downright disgusting. The nation should hang its head in collective shame, as this is not the first time…

So whats to promote ? Fujiya cakes ? MeatHope ? Mikasa Foods ? Itoham ? The list goes on.

"Ricako, 42, said, “I joined the campaign because I want children to eat healthy and tasty Japanese food.”

Like Instant noodles, 500 yen chemical laced bentos, or Japanese style curry rice…

Could this get any more embarrasing for the Japanese ? I mean really now ! They spent the last few years attacking American beef. Only to find that US beef is 10X's more safe than the local mislabled stuff. Then Japan goes on a media crusade attacking Chinese goods, and…

"Japan auto output down on weak U.S. demand"

So why aren't they selling to other nations ? Again, I'm just sick of these countries, like Japan, that want to blame their economic problems on the USA. Funny... they weren't singing the praises of Uncle Sam when they were drumming up…

Iwamura continues to kill his team ! The guy has been O fer eight the past two games, two errors, and he has stranded 4 on base ! There is a definite trend here among Japanese players... they fold under pressure ! I say yank him out, put some hard…

Nice try Cleo... I'll not get dragged into your "Gee, I don't understand" world of sillyness. To sum things up, Ota getting a job is "not news" ! To see his whimpering mug on the tele last night was even more ridiculous. Japan news outlets need to re-think their priorities…

"explain whether you think Ota-kun has been "mollycoddled" over the past 15 years or whether he obviously fell through the cracks?"

You mean he couldn't have done both ? He couldn't be the typical pampered mamby pamby Japanese athlete that chose to get involved in a minor sport, thus diminishing…

Poor nigelboy, dude has obviously bought into the misinformation so rampantly dispersed here at these so-called "news and discussion" sites. So if I may,

"Your argument works only if there are no costs involved when a company does exactly what these dispatch agencies do."

Wrong ! Dispatch agencies are nothing…

Ah yes, the downside of the "slap-hitter" ! Iwamura goes 3-4 but doesn't have the muscle to go yard when his team really needs it !
