Good idea. Moving out after 7 years in Japan wa very stressful. I was so busy dealing with so many things that I could not enjoy my last weeks in that great country. This book could have helped me...

Well, there are some hundred thousands brazilians living in Japan and 2 million nikkei living in Brazil. Those with a Brazilian passport need a visa just to be on transfer in the US. Besides, when you are on transfer in the US you can lose 4 or more hours (having to go through immigration and be considered a terrorist until you prove otherwise), that for business travelers are quite valuable.

If dolphins were as smart as some claim them to be, they wouldn't return every year to the same spot, just to be killed.

"a Brazilian of Japanese descent What type of passport does this person carry?"
Obviously, at least a Brazilian one. Being of Japanese descent give them a special status of residence. I have been in Japan for seven years, and seldomly seen or heard about Afghans. They should be very easy to identify here, unless they are Japanese posing as Afghans to confuse the police and make the story believable to the Japanese audience.

Funny, in Argentinean newspapers they are saying it will be Pekerman. They must be wrong.

Japanese society has traditionally punished with death to their meanest citizens. I think it is a good thing for the public to see these facilities and listen to the inmates. It is necessary for all of us to have the more possible information in order to judge whether it is good or bad to have the death penalty.

These bands of bad monkeys (two that wait outside, one that enters to steal food and attack the resident) are just the tip of the iceberg of a revolution that has already started. The monkey revolution is coming!

In return, I can say there are some names in Japanese that sound very funny in Spanish. The funniest is Kaga Mariko, which means Faggot Sh*t

Good news. I was wondering when they were going to do it, because fuel price has stabilized around 90$.
I agree with everybody else that is asking for an "all inclusive" price. 10 years ago shops were forced to publish the final price, including tax, in order to give customers all the information about how much they are going to pay. The government could do the same with plane tickets. I really don't care if they use the money to buy fuel. Just tell me the final price.

People here confess even if they are not guilty. Abuse can be proved, but just "touching" is much more difficult to prove. My wife works with small children and she is always kissing and hugging them. At first mothers were surprised and now fully accept it, but I always thought that if instead of her it was me the one to kiss and hug their daughters they would not be so happy.

The basic probles is that a lot of people think there is an easy way to get in shape, better the golf swing or learning a language. If we depart from the premise "it is going to get time, sweat and tears", so much people would be less disappointed...

Great development! Remember it is the only airline that offers this. Therefore, 1000 yen does not seem too much.

I watched a couple of matches and it does not seem to be so much of a "team" there. Ichiro is the only star that team has and I admire not only his dedication but his loyalty.

In my case (male), I am the one taking care of the family finances. We earn more than we spend (which is below average), but we usually do things as a family, so all of us "enjoy" the money. If one wants to go out alone with friends is OK, but we do not have a budget for that.
I never understood why men, being away from home all day, want to spend the night with their co-workers and the weekends playing golf with their bosses.

Great game it was. This was one of the few tournaments where you can say "the best team won". The bulk of good football Spain produced during this tournament was far beyond what any other team did (except for Germany, maybe). Holland was a fighting rival, with few ideas but with a world cup final attitude. Maybe they are now asking themselves "Why were we so cheap? We could have played as we know. We could have...". Spain took the risks, played the football it knows it can play and in the end got its reward. Viva España!

I am one of those that has decded to press the mute button. I realized that I could not listen to any sound from the field that was not the vuvus. Check yourselves: is any other game you can hear voices, the sound of the foot kicking the ball, the fans´ expressions, coaches´ shouts, etcetera. Here, I can hear nothing. I heard players, coaches, spectators and tv watchers are complaining a lot. This just have started, I dont think anyone can live a month of vuvus...

The US government demanding rules for banks is simply ridiculous. US banks have proven to be very toxic, so the best way to keep them at bay is to have tougher rules for them.

I guess they have to say they lost it somehow, because if they say "I still have the money", they will torture them until they say where it is.
