Why does the article say " 5,000 becquerels per kilogram in Japan" and the image say "2,500"? Which is safe?

They blatantly lied before ("we did nothing illegal") what makes people believe they will actually met this deadline?

The man’s defense at the trial was that he had begun taking the stimulants out of “anxieties caused by the aftershocks.”

That was his defense? I'm wondering how stupid this guy is

I HATE how Japan just hands these out to anyone wanting to jump ship... while the rest of the hard working foreigners in Japan have no access at all to change nationalities so easily.

I'm wondering why people voted no? He already said he would come back if asked to, his locality is to the shareholders. Totally reminds me of Steve Jobs where they outed the wrong person and apple nearly went bankrupt, they re-hired Steve and the company was saved, I can see the same thing happening here if Olympus can just admit they made a mistake.

Singer Joji Takahashi, 53, and his wife Mika Mifune, 29, have been named as “Partners of the Year,” an award given to ideal married couples

Ideal? 53 and 29? How is that ideal? He married this chick when she was 16 and started dated when she was 13!!!

Takahashi is older than her father!
