    Blame it on greedy investment bankers. They knew what they were doing. The US gov't has no choice but to bail some of them out otherwise things get worst. The CEO of Lehman raked in over $100m last year. It's a case where the 'haves' keep on having.

    Nothing artistic about this display. Now if it was a wet t-shirt girl in the pool then that's worth my admission fee.

    Japan is tops when it comes to subway/train transportation. With all those workers you know it won't take weeks or months for completion. I bet they work all day and all night.

    Good to see the PM chatting up with the college kids. I'm sure it'll be story for them to tell their future grandchildren that they had dinner with the PM. For Aso it looks like a planned PR moment. Hope they had a good meal and a few round of drinks on Aso's tab!

    It's a cult that exists merely to make money and should be treated as such.

    Whatabout those churches believing that their members should donate 10% of their gross earnings to them?

    What happens in the 'womens only trains', stays in the 'women only trains'. I guess in this case we'll call it the 'cosplay only trains'. Intriguing

    Is this guy part of the Mori empire? You know, buy bits and pieces of the block, let it rundown or bulldoze them for parking lots. And when he owns the whole block, bulldoze and redevelop into the Kahala Hills Mori building.
