This is interesting and also confusing...Canada usually refuses to extradite even the most terrible alleged criminal to countries that have the death penalty (much to the anger of the general populace).

Once the Red Cross gets the money, it becomes theirs. And the Red Cross disperses the money as they see fit, at their own discretion. So that means a big chunk of Japan money could have gone to other countries that the Red Cross adjudged to be in need.

Well, he defended his country albeit in an unsophisticated and naive-sounding way. Google Mauritius, a binky little island that was home to the extinct Dodo bird.

Is Tim Horton's in Japan? I think Krispy Kreme pulled out of Canada because Tim Horton's is most popular.

If the dog has a sponge-like body covered in faux fur I would love to get one... I am SO tired of scooping my cat's stinky poop.

The farther away in time from the attacks, the worse they seem to me. Amen, amen, amen.

It angers me to see how the criminals are protected as if they were swaddling babies.

I read Silence more than 20 years ago; it made such a powerful impression. If the movie stays true to the book, it will garner intense reaction.

This photo startled me before my brain reoriented itself. Young people pursuing fun. It would be a sparkle in my day to bump into a scenario like this.

If this bigger phone size continues, wouldn't it be simpler to just stick a phone onto a tablet?

Yummy yum. I love tomatoes. Kagome guard your seeds for the precious commodity that they are! Never have dealings with Monsanto! IMO, Monsanto would take your 7,5000 seeds, destroy them, and then make you grow some genetically modified frankenstein crap.

Kapuna, me and my muddled-up sentences! Sorry. I was texting to the first poster whose username is Kimokekahuna Hawaii. My parents were in Honolulu and Captain Cook.

Smart of the Japanese consumer! Don't bother going to Korea or China. Don't waste your money on people who crap on your country. Go to Hawaii instead. My parents went to beautiful Hawaii, Kimokekahuna, and found that many, many people in business spoke Japanese and were very welcoming.

OMG Otters are so cute and clever...I would love to feel this wild animal's paw and yet it would be cruel of me to take advantage of its hunger without actually giving it food...

He's trying to make the trial last forever to cause more harm. And that Russian accent is fakery; he speaks accentless English.
