I pity half/double children, like this Becky, who are monolingual. They make me sad...

USNavyinJapan, what's a 'double child' ? And just because a child has mixed parentage doesn't mean that they will automatically speak two languages. If you are born and brought up in Japan then you will be…

Alfie,

I would have thought the reason why we feel these shockwaves late at night for longer here in Tokyo, is because the more modern buildings that we live in are built on the roller base system which makes our more modern Tokyo buildings 'ride' the tremor ? I don't…

I still think Koki has some boxing talent to put to a good use. These are boxers remember. There are not many nice people who have become world champions of boxing. Mike Tyson, Zab Judah, Prince Naseem, Bernard Hopkins, Marvin Hagler. You think they are people you want to come…

super d,

Why bother at all then. Maybe just allow very rich individuals to ruin the chances of a political party for their own career means. Oh, and Brussels doesn't rule on UK electoral law by the way. For your info.

SushiSake,

I love it when the North Americans on this site start bitching with each other about US politics. Isn't Hilary weakening the Democrats chance of a united vote against McCain ? In the UK a political party (Labour or Conservative or Liberal) would stop a candidate from weakening their party…

This is all a bit late isn't it ? And I don't like the way this gym and other sponsors only distanced themselves once Daiki Kameda got his ban. They were all perfectly happy with the money rolling in when the Kameda's were popular and on TV.

Koki Kameda is…
