US congress seemed to interpret as if Japanese PM promised that Japan's self-defense team will participate with US forces' battle .

But, those are just PM's dogmatic declaration, present Japanese society has no such intention, at least concrete deliberation at the Diet or national discussion at society haven't done at all.

Arne Slot is set to become Liverpool's next manager after a compensation deal worth up to £9.4m was agreed with Feyenoord

A lot to do this summer. Brilliant players probably past their peak like VVD and Salah and some maybe not up the required level like Nunez. A few Liverpool mates have been saying Robertson’s form has gone off a cliff. Some good youngsters there though.

According to the article a large number of Tennessee residents and families of those killed in the covenant shooting strongly disagree with this. 

A large number also agree with them.

You think you know better than them?

No, but I know the Federal government and the public school system.

I find it dreadful that teachers of young students would even need to be armed. 25 years since the April 20, 1999, Columbine High School shootings.

I find it dreadful that teachers stopped teaching kids what schools are supposed to do and instead teach them how to be woke and radical.

There have been 404 school shootings since Columbine. 338,000 students in the U.S. have experienced gun violence at school.

84 percent of Black students lack proficiency in mathematics and 85 percent of Black students lack proficiency in reading skills,

So is this...

Gun violence and school shootings are a uniquely American epidemic. Sandy Hook Promise is shining a light on these vital facts and statistics.

The schoolyards are full of dead kids.

EVERY SINGLE SCHOOL in the US? You kidding me?!

Arming teachers is not an answer.

I think is is the best answer since the cops are not allowed to do much

What happens when an angry student manages to grab the gun from the teacher?

Scroll up, I answer that.

It's too bad that film companies are boycotting Russia. Cinema and other arts have a huge potential to promote peace and friendliness among peoples, even if (or especially if) their governments are at war with each other.

My dog, just look at the state of that car, the driver must have been going one hell of a speed to do that much, if it was travelling at a normal speed for that road, this sort of damage woud not have taken place. Plus, if these cars are built so flimsy and light weight how do they ever get passed by the government safety board, or what ever it is called.

West Ham vs Liverpool after a run of very poor performances from the Liverpool players. Deeaft in the FA Cup by Man U. That hurt. Defeat in the Europa by Atalanta. That hurt. Defeat by Palace and then Everton in the derby. We played so well during the season but collapsed on the home run.

Not excited about today's game but I will watch.

Can we surmise then that this company is in favour of the genocide happening in Gaza. I can not see it any other way.

Interesting....

So MAGA-world is all for guns in classrooms...

But guns are banned at Trump rallies...

I guess that means that they think elementary school children are more mature and responsible than themselves (Trump's supporters)...

They may be on to something...

All the USA based platforms share their data with the their government, that is a fact, if they refused to the government would put them out of business.

So, the Israeli regime CONTINUES to commit what is probably the crime of genocide, but it is those trying to prevent it from succeeding who are the problem.

Was the fax machine broken? Or the Floppy Disc reader malfunctioning? Perhaps the USB reader cable is no longer compatible to its intended reader? Knowing how things are done here, I think the authorities are still on the 8th round of meeting before they decide if they will use digital media on handling sensitive documents.

It’s game on for Japan. Especially by the sounds on the cyber security front. The ‘we do things our way here’ mentality will work against them if they don’t move quickly. The slow become the target in this new cyber frontier. Collaboration , communication and cooperation skills will be key.

‘You don’t have to hide gaping holes in the system to cover some idiot boss anymore’, should be the new mantra. Attracting talent and expertise from overseas will also mean that everyone will have to be able to explain themselves well. The big and very overdue system upgrade! Can be done, if the will is there.

Good move.

The teachings of the Tendai sect are based on the Lotus Sutra. The abbot who raped and abused the Buddhist nun Eicho and sexually enslaved her is not a follower of the Lotus Sutra. He is a shameless fake and criminal.

I was hopeful that BOJ governor Ueda will at least try to reverse what Kuroda and Abe did with that sham of "Abenomics" but alas he is no different. The only thing changing in Japan is the number of its old people.

Meanwhile, the Koran tells its followers that they must convert nonbelievers to Islam or kill them if they refuse to convert.

Is it possible that said buck wild student is able to gain control of your beaten-up teacher's weapon and shoots the teacher with their own gun?

Anything is possible, but with proper training, the chances are a lot slimmer.

Cops also occasionally get shot with their own guns.

That is less than 1% of the time.

I don't want to be partners with autocratic nations. No need for it.

So teachers shouldn't be armed when they have a student that goes buck wild on them and beats the crap out of them?

Which really means they are over charging their customers in record levels.

Agree. It is obviously the BOJ do it intentionally. He could do just a statement to reverse the falling trend but he did applause the depreciating yen for bringing benefits to the economy. He had effectively spray gasoline to a wildfire.

Oh dear, this Tennessee governor chap seems to think he has solved the problem, well guess what, this will eventually lead to more school shootings.

So teachers shouldn't be armed when they have a student that goes buck wild on them and beats the crap out of them? Or if some disgruntled student has an axe to grind and decides to shoot up the place if he or she can manage somehow to get a firearm.

And what's the guessing how long it will be before a teacher turns up for lessons dressed like one of army/military cops, wearing battle dress, armour plating, multiple weapons....etc....etc...We all know that will happen, right.

I think you have been watching too many American Western movies. Remember, they are just movies, nothing more.

Commenters are not discussing the Buddhist nun Eicho, who is the article's subject. Regardless of when or where it occurred, her experience is wrong.

probably wasn't pasturized

20% of milk tested in the US has bird flu in it, and this is coming from pasteurized milk products.

Police said the man told them he was hungry and had no money 

so then, steal ACTUAL food. not processed sugar. or, maybe get a job.

get this foo outta here

saying he took his eyes off the road for a few seconds.

idiot.

so what was he looking at for those few seconds? the wonderful stars in the sky?

the cart tipped over and the box opened up as it tumbled out. 

so the box (boxes?) wasn't even taped up or sealed in anyway...............

people ask me if Japan is really the high-tech nation

it's not so much that it isn't a "high-tech" nation, the tech is THERE.

It's just the low amounts of logic and common sense in people (mainly the powers that be,) that is hurting things.
