    Pivot... I just watched him on the news too. He seems irritated by the reports and I believe him when he says he doesn't know if he'll retire, but I think he'll make the smart move and go out on top. Also... I'm just asking, but at 29 can swimmers…

    God, Toshiba... What big babies??? It's like they said you didn't want to play with our ball so we don't want to play at all.

    They could do their consumers a favor by sucking it up and work with the Blu-Ray group to improve the technology.

    Yeah, Kitajima isn't your typical Japanese guy and he's gotten a lot of flack for that, but he'll do the smart thing and retire on top. Of course EVERYONE loves him now that he's brought 1/4 of Japan's gold medals, but his western cockiness is a turn off even for…

    Nigelboy... Yeah, my fault on that one... I should have said "I THINK being naturalized does not allow of the rights of being Japanese but after I thought about it, the story I was thinking about was of a woman born and raised in Japan but who kept her South…

    Thanks "Nigelboy" and "Taiko666" for clarifying whether naturalized Japanese citizens can become police officers and/or firefighters.

    I do know that being a naturalized Japanese citizen does not allow one to ALL of the rights of being Japanese. Civil servants are not allowed to have positions of authority/management.

    And "Taiko666" you…

    Rodney King... You misread "YouDon'tKnow's" comment. She/He said non-native Japanese when she/he should have said NATURALIZED JAPANESE CITIZENS should be allowed to work in civil service jobs, such as police and fire fighters. She's/He's technically still correct with the "non-native" label, but obviously you didn't understand that. And yes naturalized…

    WMD, you are so right! And why is it the media protects these damn companies by not reporting the name of the wholesaler and/or the name of the stores they shipped their spoiled products to???

    And because no one got sick the wholesaler isn't going to be punished in any…

    You guys are confusing me... European1 got me back on track, but I'm still confused. I got my iPhone last week and the woman told me that the 7,280 price wasn't for unlimited use. She told me that to get the unlimited use I would have to go up to…

    Dogdog... Sorry to make you even more frustrated (as I am), but LIBERTAS is correct. The tariffs on rice were announced Monday on NHK news and... LIBERTAS did not make a typo. They used three others as examples on the news and I couldn't make out the kanji on the…
