HeyLars Sorry! Not having a go at you. Just using your words as an example. My mistake.
I guess the same could be said about a football umpire or basketball ref. They get to make the same call against the same players. I guess skating is not so big a field that the judge has come into contact with the same people again.

Well there is no possible way that the athletes made a mistake so it must be some kind of conspiracy by this judge. It's the only possible explaination, not inlcuding the one of common sense.

Can anyone explain to me why the Japanese whalers go to Antarctica to hunt and not in the Arctic which would be much closer and in theory, cheaper?

Welcome to Japan. I do not believe they are discriminating against Americans as such, they discriminate against all things foreign, in my opinion.
Posted in: The Japanese continue to break their promise. They said they would allow American cars to participate in their cash-for-clunkers program but have rigged the rules so that few can.

No such thing as god. The bombs were dropped from horizontal bombers, which then took a radical, 158 degree diving turn away from their flight path.

I disagree. I feel the other car makers have realized the trouble brewing with Toyota and decided to come clean now. Better late than never.

Thanks to the church for the abuse and neglect. And thanks to the Australian government for doing nothing about it and allowing it to continue even as we speak.

I'd love to learn more Japanese if it didn't cost me an arm and a leg to learn it.
Posted in: The growth in the number of non-Japanese students at such classes, which originally were intended only for Japanese people, highlights the need to improve the Japanese language-teaching system for such students.

You are correct but I still believe there is no risk of a terrorist attack in Japan using explosives.

So true! I don't believe there has been an attack in/on Japan using explosives since 1945. I could be wrong, but I can't find any information about it. Does anyone know?

Funnily enough, there will be plenty opposed to banning smoking in these areas. Why? Because the 'gold lining' in their pockets will decrease. What kind of country allows smoking in a hospital?
Posted in: It is inevitable that the restaurant industry will oppose the smoking ban because of its likely negative impact on customer numbers.

I can't seem to find this on any of the NZ news websites. That's strange! I'm sure NZ said they would 'support' Australia rather than start legal action of their own.

Yeah GOOD LUCK! It's part of the culture here. Just like they way don't cover their mouth when they cough. Even with the nasty flu outbreaks you would think people would change their unclean habits, but alas, no.

I have to agree. The shows aim is to offend but reallly it does just reflect society where everyone isn't a white male aged 18-35, married, christian, 1.8 children etc
