i heard there was a new airline starting up service called fatAIR. apparently it caters to overweight people and offers twice wider seats and more legroom.

i would have to see original footage of a video shot from a helicopter above the ships before i would be willing to say that the chinese are 100% at fault here.
Posted in: What do you think about the online posting of a video showing collisions between a Chinese trawler and Japanese patrol boats near the Senkaku Islands by a Japan Coast Guard member? Is it a big deal? Should heads roll over the matter?

, i am simply pointing out that all we have seen is edited footage of a video that shows several collisions.

i agree with another poster that this guy is not very much of a hero. the general reaction of the japanese public that this video establishes 100% chinese guilt is WRONG.

these japanese "herbivore" guys need to be careful lest they get eaten up by some of the yummy japanese cougars that prey around the supermarket aisles in my town.

in 1995 MMA was very much a fledgling sport without anywhere near the safeguards and safety precautions that it now has. unfortunately it usually takes an incident like this one to light a fire under officials to enact better safeguards; which is exactly what happened.

as sum14 said, my understanding was that the crew members were never actually detained ergo they haven't now been freed. they were most likely sitting on their own ship waiting to see if Japan would free the captain in a short amount of time and since that hasn't happened they have now decided to head home.

ha, more like he slapped him in the face and then covered up like a little girl. i have seen a few "fights" in the years that i have been here, but not once have i seen a decent punch thrown.
this is one of the problems with this country; no damn accountability. no wonder why we end up with criminal politicians like Ozawa. the charges were dropped!?!? that is total BS. just b/c he agreed to pay restitution does not mean the charges should have been dropped. what about all the other cars that he admits to vandalizing??? the police/prosecutor in this situation is a glaring idiot.

i dont believe there is anything in that article to indicate that these will not work with a solid state hard drive. i only interpreted it as saying that with flash devices it will be able to reach its max speeds. mayhap im wrong mayhap i aint.

i think he should burn a Quran, an Old Testament, a New Testament, a Lotus Sutra, a Hindu text, a Taoist text and on and on and on. Who cares anyway pretty soon everyone will own a Kindle ebook reader and the notion of a good ol' "book burning" will be out-of-date anyway.
