  Why can't an Olympian find a regular job in Japan

  Accepted a job offer, starts working as a marketing official. Which bit of that is not 'a regular job'?

  First off, why hasn't this guy been offered a coaching position ?

  He may well have been. According to what he…

  I'm not talking about a bit of experimentation. I'm talking about young people habitually abusing their bodies through bad lifestyle choice because they have failed to learn to respect themselves. The occasional bag of chips or glass of wine isn't going to do anyone any harm, but a…

  I think there is a good chance it was somebody else's "bad" idea, and being busy, Palin did not consider all the ins and outs and just went ahead with the idea.

  A bit like she didn't consider all the ins and outs of running for VP, but just agreed…

  Caveman -

  I agree with you completely. I wasn't suggesting that I thought sex ed led to sexual experimentation, or that the ordinary, natural curiosity of children is a bad thing. We've all played Doctors and Nurses (haven't we?) I was trying to address the fears of those parents who…

  Now we get in the car and drive to the grocery a quarter mile away and buy a case of Cheetos, plop down and watch CSI and then drive to work and sit behind a computer.

  Of our own volition. And not many of us regularly get a bull hook…

  Can't the company that runs the game twiddle the 1s and 0s to resurrect the late avatar (maybe with new improved superpowers as recompense)? Then fine the dippy woman however much it cost in man-hours (game company and police time) to put things back the way they were. Then put…

  The naming is unfortunate. 'Sex ed for kindergarten' isn't about teaching tinies how to use a condom. It is (or should be) the first steps in teaching them to respect themselves and others.

  It doesn't matter if it's called a penis or a wee-wee or a willy or a percy…

  up to five years in prison or a fine up to 500,000 yen

  If she'd illegally accessed a computer and manipulated electronic data to, say, move funds from someone else's bank account to her own, or to tamper with the stock market, then fine; but five years for spoiling…
