Whoever opposes the President talking to children wishing they do well, is a real idiot. America is really lucky. Some other nations really do not have or cannot give a school book to each kid. Let alone an eraser or pen. Third World Countries have it much worse than America.
American kids should be fighting to achieve.

i Phone is cool !!! Twitter is cool If you want to take really good pictures get a Real Camera. I do not want a seg tv . It takes all the battery power !!! Anyways Japanese tv is boring. You Tube is far more exciting and has much more variety than Japan Television.
The great selling point for the i phone is ---i Tunes. High quality movies, music, games, videos and etc. Did I mention You Tube ,Twitter, and Facebook ? 1000'a of songs, 1000's of movies and televison shows. How can you compare ?

combinibento the reason why is the have to get cheap no talent actors and do voice overs. Plus they need time to translate the script. Change the movie title to make it more interesting for the Japanese audience. Some movies they promote fast others they take their time with.

I saw this movie in America on my vacation. Without Brad Pitt this movie is so so !!!! The first 20 minutes of the movie was great. But after that it turns to crap. G.I. Joe is a better movie than this.

I used to work forJapanese Public Schools for awhlle in Senior/Junior H.S. and also Elementary Schools.
I've seen teachers bullying kids. I've seen kids bullying teachers physically and mentally. I've seen student bullies individual and groups going after 1,2or 3 victims. I stopped many fights between students going after teachers or student vs. student. Most children do not tell the parent or keep it a secret until it is too late. If guns was accesssible in JAPAN. There would be many school shooting in japan. Usually thhe bullies' parents are very weak too. Usually the bullies' parents don't care or don't have a loveing relatiionship at home with their family. Usually bullies are LONELY people with no way to express themselves. So they find weak people to express their feelings of sorrow on. It's usually jealousy that starts this problem The Solution: The student has to talk to a teacher v. principal or principal that cares. Tell your child or someone, school is not forever. When you grow up this will all be but of a memory. Last resort Teach them to fight back self defense tactics is the way to go. If it is verbal abuse ,give verbal abuse back. Find some weakness about that child and exploit it. Tell your child to make fun of his/her family clothing or lifestyle. Use funny or strong words to destroy the bully. Talk about the bully's mother. That usually works !!! Sucker punch and talking heavy smack usually works well. Fight only if it is self defense.Let the bully make the first move. And counter attack. girl vs. girl usually a hard smack to the face will change everything And a super punch to the stomach. boy vs. boy usually a sucker punch to the nose and hard kick works best if the bully is heavy than your son or daughter. Always have an escape route in motion. If it gets heavy. Aim for the nose is the last resort.
Some teachers will help you some will not. Find the teacher that will help you. Sometimes white lies are good ,exaggerate, tell the teacher he has a knife or something and he threatened your life. choking is also a good lie. Good Luck child remember school is not forever. Remember 20 years from now he/ she will be a salesperson at ssoftybanks. Who cares Or throw his or her belongs in the trash or out the window after school or recess when nobody is looking. I don't condon violence. Last resort self defense I used to be a victim of bully violence but now I am happy. weeee !!!!!!

Hotel Property in the coming future !!! Maybe a future Hilton !!! But than again N. Korea will probably lob a couple of dummy missles off the coast. Then the okinawa people will likely say, " Wow !!! I miss the olden days ! "

When the soldiers move out it will become hotel property. More resort areas. About Futenma I used to work there long time ago. It's perfect for an International Airport. More volumes a traffic for taiwain and hong kong and chinese businessmen. Don't worry Okinawaians will never see this money. it will all go to the hotel corporations. Okinawa could be another HAWAII if they do it right.
America is not finacially strong anymore, downsizing it's bases. It's very sad. I love okinawa. I had great times there.

You cannot stamp out insurgency. It will just move to another country. This is a win-less war. These tribal people are scattered all over the place. A sleeper cell here a sleeper cell there. I suggest using reverse psychology. Build schools and housing on both sides. Air drop food and supplies. Maybe than the " LIZARD BRAIN will switch into the LOGICAL BRAIN. Maybe a turkey sandwich will change their hearts and minds.
