In fairness to the wedding dress designer, I dont thinks its meant to be showing a lot of leg, I think Aya is pulling it up a bit, which is fair enough really. She's 24 and not married yet.... she must be getting worried and is looking to ensnare a helpless young man in there before she is 'past-it' (which in her industry, in Japan, is around about now).

or you could just take it at face value, understand that the government / police thinks this will help them catch criminals and not assume that everyone in a position of power is in some way evil and wants to take over the world.
Its not all a big conspiracy mate.
Also please answer the original question that two people have raised - how is someone looking at you through a camera any different to someone looking at you directly. Do you feel violated if someone looks at you walking down the street? Does this take away some of your rights? Or do you assume that any one of them could be a State operative, reporting back to Big Brother on your every move?

Dont know much about baseball but reading those in the know, looks like she doesnt have much of a chance and its a bit of a publicity stunt.
I hope she proves a few people wrong.

All our rights are just as valid. I just dont see why anyone has the right to not be filmed if it is for the greater good of society. I think it would be wrong for me to follow you around with a video camera, but I dont think its wrong for a trained professional to sit in an office looking at video feed from cctv cameras. I cannot understand why there is the desire for this 'privacy' in public places. People are looking at you, why cant there be a guy in an office looking at you through a camera lense too? seriously are the two any different?

Sorry but I just cant get that worked up about the idea of someone filming me as I walk around. You can honestly film me as much as you like. I think cameras are a good idea, they wont prevent much crime but hopefully they can help us catch people that do break the law.
Also, Ive seen cctv used in the UK to prevent drunk drivers. The cctv camera sees a clearly drunk person staggering toward their car and getting in, police are on the scene before the dd gets the chance to pull away. Ill give up some of my privacy to have even just one less drunk behind a wheel. cctv has also been used to alert police to potential fights breaking out etc.

Very sad, I wonder why he thought debt was so important? Was money the only way he contributed to the family? No such thing as attempted suicide. If you fail, you werent really that into it. He is now eligible for the death penalty no though right? As you have to kill 2+ people for that in Japan I think.

@dontknockit - I think you are right with your definition of mature.
Id still put my mortgage on her having the social skills of a twelve year old though.
In other words he likes them to look and act as young as possible yet still remain on the right side of the law.

I actually think these cars look quite nice. But if I ever saw someone driving one, I would think that that person has a serious deficiency either physical or mental that they need to make up for by buying a diamond car.
