what a good marketing ploy . pushing it as a "limited amount" so it will sell quickly. then they'll come back & say it sold so well we've decided to produce more. hope they don't put asahi dry in those cans. worst brew ever.

so, they're talking about raising it TO 10% . not raising it 10% . looking at, i'm assuming, a 1% hike for 5 years. but rest assure , after that's done they'll find some other reasons to keep raising it . 1 major problem here is the pension system. although it's mandatory to pay into it, i believe about 40% of the japanese don't pay anything . start collecting that & i'm sure it would help tremendously .

if they're that good ,they shouldn't need such an advantage . then the weaker team should get the handicap . isn't that how handicaps usually work ?

not only do the hawks start the series with a 1-0 advantage, all the games are played at hawks home field. what a scam !!

what crap. 1 team goes into the series with 1 win. a gift from the league. who has ever heard of such a thing ??? quite odd. another reason to ignore japanese "adult" baseball. stick with koshien . great competition & heart in those kids.

naruhodo1 that's correct. it is the gimmick . marketing is the key it seems & the news outlets, like this article for example, help keep the prices inflated .

on the other hand, when traveling overseas, i'm sure you'd find the price of japanese sake much much higher than what it would cost in japan.

you need a balanced approach. geothermal, wind, solar & tidal seems to be the way to go . use a bit of everything.

congrats to the japanese team!! very well done. japanese women do sooo much better than the japanese men in all international sports. i wonder why that is. bigger heart maybe or more open minded than the narrow minded men.

.* this is one of the problems. they say the tests will help alleviate concerns, but they'll never be truthful or thorough in passing on test results .
