"90292"... Great point!

BTW, aren't "family and relatives" the same thing?

While aboard the JR Chuo line between Shinjuku and Kanda stations, he looked on in amazement as a young woman applied cosmetics. During a span of approximately 20 minutes, she completely transformed herself.

Ummmmm.... It takes about 10 minutes between Shinjuku and Kanda.

This woman is a joke! She's a flake who needed to go to 6 colleges, count 'em 6, (!!!) in six years before she finally graduated and it just shows she can't commit to anything. The idea that the Republican Party would even consider supporting her for a 2012 run for office defies logic of any kind. I'm glad she resigned. Hopefully we won't here her name for a long while.

From an international perspective he sucks! Japan is dying to have a golfer who can compete overseas and because he's young and good looking the companies want him to hawk their products, but mark my words he will NEVER finish in the top 10 of a major.

They're not going to end up going to Hawaii either. Swine flu.

jkoffman... "...2 years behind Japanese models???" What are you talking about??? Japanese mobiles might be ahead in their standard models compared to other countries, but the iPhone makes all other phones in Japan look silly by comparison.

I'm with you "outofmydepth" but trust me, that barbarian stable master will be out after his appeal(s) are heard and the judge will say something along the lines of, "he has suffered enough and lost his standing in society."

If you are a professional in relation to training someone there is always a certain amount of pushing that needs to be done, but being a professional it is your job to know the psyche of the person your training and how far you can push him or her.

In this case it was physical and mental bullying and everyone involved should be going to prison.

Same as "Tiger" with the exception of the mask. I thought we pretty much laid to rest that a mask can't protect you from viruses. It can only help stop the spread of viruses...

She looks so nice in this picture and can not understand everyone that was criticising the first two pictures that JT posted saying she didn't look Japanese. This is what I consider Japanese women to look like.

Good ol' Japanese media always thinking of the public. A government official arrested two weeks ago for alleged pedophilia and it makes news today...

Sarge... I think it's best of seven like men's singles tennis in the Grand Slams. They had to go to the sixth set.

The simple answer is yes, but Tatsumaru points out the "good faith" issue. The media should always be concerned in what context they are filming or taking photos.

It would also be nice if the media would let people know what context they are using the film and/or photos.

Can we expand this JT??? What about amateur photographers and videographers taking photos and filming people in public??? Do the same ethics/protocols apply???
