How does contaminated water manage to penetrate a double layer hazmat suit?

The article tells us nothing!

Saitama Shi is on par with Kita Kyushu.

it’s a gangster paradise.

Why would you trust a doctor?

Harold Shipman was a local GP in the UK for decades.

He also turned out to be one of the most prolific serial killers in history.

Your job doesn’t define your moral compass

Seriously. Is anyone surprised?

furthermore, does anyone really expect any kind of punishment for these folks?

Bizarrely, bottled water is even more expensive! Use a vending machine? Over 200¥ a liter. Often much more. I’ve seen “boutique” water in Tokyo at 500¥ for 500ml.

go figure?

It’s yen not dollars.

$20,000 isn’t a king’s ransom

You only know where fish has been landed but not where it was caught nor where it had been before being caught.

Now I get it 17 abducted so 17 comments?

noticed 4 were from the same dud supporting this nonsense.

Why was the comments thread about N. Korean abductions summit closed after only 17 comments?

manipulating gone wrong.

Why is this the ‘top story’ of the day?

it’s just movie memes!

Ogura, however, has said that careful consideration must be given if the law is to be amended as the current legislation only encompasses abusive acts by parents or guardians.

say what?

as you carefully consider more children, young people and women are being groomed and abused.

can’t help but wonder if he might have something in the cupboard he’d like to remain “private”

all those people who knew about it and ignored or covered this up are enablers and just as guilty

They need to do the same as the UK did when after Jimmy Saville died there was a huge police investigation into historical abuse resulting in lots of arrests and prosecutions not just have another pointless ministerial meeting.

@George

Sadly if he brings it back to Japan it will be confiscated at the port of entry.

@larr

probably assuming too much.

It’s not always kids living in parents house. It’s just as often elderly parents living in kids house.

Mel Blanc.

Ignore the pack bling.

read the ingredients/content

consumers have responsibility too.

Most “fruit” chu-hi’s have around 2% fruit juice ( likely concentrated rather than fresh)

not rocket science

Who needs a watch these days? Clocks are everywhere I go. My phone shows the time and it's always on display on my laptop. Wristwatches are just expensive accessories. I haven't worn a watch for over 30 years and have never missed it.

Perhaps he had something else to hide that would bring a greater penalty than the traffic stop.

Why does no one say that it's a really crap piece of sculpture?

Not the Yamante line

@Smithinjapan I refer to my previous comment. If you stand next to the track then you have already crossed a barrier. It isn't the

I've been using this line for over 20yrs. The station is next to mine. It's absolutely all fenced off. Some areas have quite large areas between the barriers and the tracks. I suspect they mean that there was no barrier between the kid and the track which suggests he had already decided to trespass in a restricted area.

@John-San Strange reading of it. Couldn't the fact that two school friends were with the perp indicate they were actually the bullies and were up for it and celebrating? Not enough info and could be read either way. BTW. Why not give yourself the handle Sama rather than San...much cooler Japanese name.

Does the "Nationwide tally" include the almost 250 tested positive among US forces personnel based in Okinawa?

HTF can you possibly have "post traumatic stress disorder" prior to anything. Post means after. Prior means before. The first paragraph makes no sense whatsoever

@Cricky Not normal Nippon Kaigi

Found guilty. Convicted and sentenced. Immediately released on bail pending appeal. Proves no such thing as hostage justice in Japan...for some!

We all make mistakes when younger. We learn and move on. Comedy especially challenges boundaries. And doesn't neccesarily reflect true thinking. Could be irony or parody. But Mori's statement just last year exposed his real thinking! Why was he a guest at the opening ceremony? All window dressing. And bonus let's get a 'half' to light the flame. More window dressing
