  In the future homes, tablets will become the new PCs, or rather, PCs will take the form of tablets.

  If NK rocket enters Japan airspace without permission, Japan has legal right to shoot it down.

  American citizens are not allowed to go where they like?

  The govmint can tell them where they can and cannot spend their own hard-earned dollars?

  Yes, they also cannot send money to North Korea and any organization on the terrorist list. If they can do it there, they can do it anywhere.

  Okay, so the US leased it in 1903... so unless that treaty is still in effect it would appear that the US are paying Cuba for that land? So isn't the American state also propping up the Cuban government? Or don't they pay ANYTHING for the land and are just squatting? Technically Cuba can rescind the lease and take back the land?

  IIRC, the US isn't paying Cuba anything, at least currently. The Cuba-US deal was with the previous governments, that was then usurped by the current government which the US technically doesn't recognize. So the deal is kinda in legal limbo. If Cuba and US become friendly in the future, the US could pay back in form of aid. Cuba could try to take back the land militarily, but in practice they would lose that battle.

  In our college system, English is one of the entrance exams.

  Posted in: What do you think about Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's proposal that universities must adopt the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) for entrance exams. Abe says it is aimed at reforming the English teaching system in schools by shifting emphasis to verbal communications skills.

  I never saw Darvish come out of the bullpen last year as he was a starting piticher.

  Starting pitchers also warm-up in the bullpen before the game starts.

  He's learned to whittle down his pitch selection. Last year, he'd come out of the bullpen intending to use all 6 of his pitches. Now he's coming out of the bullpen using the 2 or 3 pitches that's working for him that day. Now he's trying to get outs instead of trying to impress 2 nations.

  Seems a lot of old franchises are getting revived lately. Like Space Battleship Yamato (and nobody uses battleships anymore).
