    Fukuoka must be a pretty big island since I live here and didn't know that -- LOL

    So that's the reason I saw the TV crews in front of the Ogori police station.... they are responsible for Tachiarai also.

    Chikuho Bank is not very big -- so that's probably a…

    I'm not sure I can distinguish the taste

    Really? I can tell from the first bite.

    Maybe those of us living here will now have someone on our side.... and not so many cover-ups by the government.

    Kaoru Yosano did not get clearance from his physician to travel

    Sure.... that's the reason....

    Could it be that they are all obsolete as of 2 days ago?

    the proportional representation system, that gives candidates a second chance to be elected

    Doesn't this defeat the purpose of an election to choose your representative? I thought that the single-seat constituencies were drawn proportional to the population.

    I saw this on the Japanese news last night, and the first thing I thought was that they are students from the school where I teach (since it was reported that it was a private school). There are only 4 private schools in Kurumre, so I think this. I will…

    Thanks smithinjapan!! But I did take the drugs (tamiflu) for 5 days. I just wanted to get better faster. The doctors only dole it out to those who test positive for influenza A, so it's not all for naught. This bout of flu was the mildest I've ever experienced.....really nothing…

    Had she appealed, lawyers say, the caning would have been struck down and the case would have died a natural death.

    What's the use of handing down the punishment of caning if it will be struck down on appeal?

    By this woman's NOT appealing the case, Malaysia is being forced…
