It is silly to see this as news. It is silly that 13% of Japan's energy comes from Nuvlear Power and technology started by the USA and the citizenry believes there is no Military grade use of that nuclear material. It is silly that the Japanese populace argues over the USA Nuvlear Carrier/Submarines bring a danger, when their static Nuvlear stations pose an ever present danger. Japan has the 4th MOST POWERFUL MILITARY. Once they tear up the Old Constitution, the next day Japan will be a Nuclear Power.

KCJapan's comment is emblematic of erroneous thought. Surgical site infection is not due to the use of dirty instruments in the do-called Western hospitals.

Finance: #1 cause of discourse in marriage. A stay at home wife doesn't have her own finance A Salaryman doesn't make enough for her Wife at home is bored and takes it out on the husband. Women, get out if the house and work. Something has to give. It is either your ancient need to care for kids or your marriage.

Posted in: Health ministry inspects Kawasaki hospital over fake accreditation of doctors See in context

The article is poorly written. The 11 Doctors are Registrars/Residents/Fellows. The examination in question is not GRADES, but the intake history that is done to decide if/when to admit a patient. The 9 Attendings/Consultants are required to sign-off on each Registrar. It is the 9 Attendings who should have been censored, not their students.

So glad that my wife isn't one of these mindless drones. She met me when I was unemployed, partied a lot, and travelled all over the world. Now, I am a Business owner, who still travels all over the world only in First Class; parties hard ( my wife included ), we are in the top 2% of earners and I am a Physician. So glad that my girlfriend in 2006 wasn't one of those respondents.

The use of the word VANDALISM is an overkill. Oil-like substance was discovered. Doesn't seem like an overt thing. Another INNAPROPRIATE use of scare words.

Posted in: U.S. skeptical about Iran's intentions in Iraq See in context

TigersTokyoDome at Mar. 10, 2015 - 09:21AM JST But why does the U.S. need to state concern over a local nation fighting its own local war? Surely IS in Iraq bears far more relevance to the Iranians than it does to a continent on the other side of the planet (the US).

Oohh, you are sooo good at making a point.

Posted in: How come Japan has never demanded an official apology from any U.S. government for the dropping of atomic bombs on two of its cities? In fact, why don't Japanese hate America for dropping the bombs? See in context

The Japanese stand by the Articles of Surrender and the subsequent Status of Forces Agreement, which holds the Japanese as the vanquished to be responsible for the destruction wrought upon their lands and peoples. As such, the victors are not libel, nor are their descendants. The Japanese HONOUR what they signed.

Japan already has a Military. The 4th most POWERFUL in fact. All it takes is a stroke of the pen for it to move from SELF DEFENSE Force to IMPERIAL DEFENSE FORCE.

Posted in: Last crew member of Enola Gay dies in US See in context

So much passion expressed about the Atomic bombing of Japan. More people died from the fire bombing of Tokyo or Dresden, than died from both Atomic bombs. Yet you all use passion to direct your arguments. If one is unable to argue succinctly, shut up!!

A lot of readers on this site don't read very well. The report clearly stated that the Alleged attacker doesn't live with her parents. Why then are you all speculating on the whereabouts of her parents ?

This article presents nothing new. Allergic reaction to cockroaches is the primary cause of allergen- induced reactive airway disease in ALL major cities. No one has to ingest ( eat ) the roach droppings. No blood test is required. A simple skin test or diagnosis of exclusion suffice.

Is this Japan or America ? What is the meaning of that statement ? As a Physician who has worked in both countries, I can say those numbers are an embarrassment and doesn't happen in the USA. The difference is that in the USA, geriatrics generally live in secured environments - gated communities; independent living facilities; skilled nursing facilities or Deed communities.

Misleading headline, as usual. He did the crime, now do the time. But, he isn't and wasn't a military employee. He is a civilian contract worker. All non Military workers in Japan are paid by the landlord - the Japanese gov.
