I have doubt that NK released 2 journalists for nothing. How much the US compromised for release?

It sounds like bad team of train driver and conductor. They maybe don't like each other. The driver maybe wanted to let the conductor run catch up the train someday.

I think Japanese get angry because this shameful costume will disfigure the traditional Kimono culture in public. It is understandable. But there is no problem that people do it in your house.

If government is changed, then policy is generally changed. The US already did it many times.

sabi - Your thinkings are mixed up all things such as potential war and 911. First Japan is not against Islamic countries, rather good friends with them, so they will not attack Japan. China, Russia will never attack the US. China thinks American economy is very important for china. If China attacks the US, then China's economy will be collapsed, so China is depending on the US economy and also the US is depending on China. The World is over if Russia attack the US with nukes, No one thinks Russia, China,etc attack Japan, For what they attack? Remember Japan has almost nothing, no oil, no gas, no metals, etc. You must be watching TV too much. Japan is much better under the US umbrella, because so far no war for 64 years.

Japan can't have any nuclear weapons in the first place under the law before saying Japan should develop it. The important thing is the existence of the US Bases, not nukes in Japan. As long as there are US bases all over in Japan, no one will attack Japan. This is one deterrent power for this country. When enemy attacks Japan with maybe nukes someday, it would attack big US Bases first, not Tokyo, Osaka, Odaiba, etc. After all the US would have to revenge it before SDF strike back. So Japan is better under the US nuclear umbrella. Japan does not need to develop nukes.

Japan doesn't need US Marines, should move to Guam. They are always going to other countries to fight. US Marines is a kind of wasting money for Japan.

This bicycle on the picture doesn't seem to be new safe model. New safe bicycle's wheels are smaller and all seats must be at lower position so that the center of gravity is much stable.

They are quarantined because they try not to stay at home all day and they are going outside to take sightseeing all over in Kyoto. Quarantine is reasonable.

I heard that the stuffed specimen was destroyed during the war. I just wonder how it survived. Everything was burned by Tokyo Air Raid. I go check it.

The dog "Hachiko" was very famous at the time. After death people made a stuffed specimen for memorial, but it was destroyed during the war. So they made the statue of the dog for that.

When Hachiko was dead, veterinarians opened the stomach of the dog to find out what cause of death. They found many food in his stomach that people fed. The cause was just nature of death.

I've heard that the dog "Hachiko" came and waited for his master at Shibuya station for many years because many people eating food at restaurants around the station fed Hachiko everyday. That's why the dog came down to the Station. I think the dog already forgot his master after death.

It is just lucky this time that no one was shot because he was crippled. If he was not, at least couple of people might have been shot to death as usual. I think strict gun control is very necessary.
