The U.S. needs to dispense with the political correctness crap and discuss racial issues openly and freely.

"They’re obsessed with fortune-telling."
This was a sore spot with me and an old girlfriend. I got tired of hearing about it.

I thought George W. Bush and his "War Presidency" made him the worst Chief Executive since Jimmy Carter. Now I've decided to replace Bush with Obama and his failed state capitalism.

Hooters would probably do better in Japan if they adopted some sort of maid costume down the road.

"Wonder how long those foreign chix will stay at Hooters when they get offered way higher wages at the hostess clubs?"
That will be a discussion about a year from now.

U.S. response:
Calling all drones, calling all drones....

"Clever marketing."
True
"Because of salarymen with Lolita complex..."
There is some truth here too.
In the case of AKB48, I would say that former member Rina Nakanishi's move to the AV world has drawn them a ton of attention and new fans who are wondering which young girl will be the next to move to porn.
For some fans, though, I would say that these groups give them an escape from the drudgery of their daily lives. It's fun.

"Claims against attorneys on the rise"
"the sharp increase in the number of practicing attorneys, which rose from 16,305 in 1998 to 26,930 in 2009."
No surprise here. Japan wanted to drastically increase the number of practicing attorneys. Well, obviously there would be pros and cons to all this.

They should have only Japanese waitresses. Foreigners should not be allowed.

Canada deserves much praise for winning 14 gold medals.
The U.S. deserves a big pat on the back with its 37 overall medals.
Congratulations to both countries on a great hockey game to finish off a successful Winter Olympics.

He might appeal for a while to the Japanese-American community in the U.S., but I wouldn't bank on long-term success in the U.S. if I were him.

Canada should be proud to win the gold medal total.
The U.S. should be equally proud to win the overall medal count while setting a record for most medals won at a Winter Olympics.
Congratulations to both countries!

**Putin upset with Russia's Olympic performance **
He should be.
"Remember 2010" will be plenty of motivation for Russia over the next 4 years.

Differences in construction methods and materials and enforcement of the laws is certainly part of it.
Chile's death toll will worsen. Haiti's is higher than you say.
Big differences in population density between the main cities affected in both countries.
Also, quite a difference between the two concerning the depth of the quakes and how the intensity was felt at the surface.
