the owner just proved the reviewer's point. who would want to stay at a hotel that has you thrown in jail for criticizing their bad service.

the rice too big and no taste good at those conveyor belt places.

if the moneygrubbing nepotistic IOC want to moves one of the few event that people who live in tokyo can see for free, they should pay for it. otherwise tokyo should boycott the olympics.

IOC can have the marathon anywhere they like! so long as tokyo tax money is not paying anything for it! tokyo spent the money to bring the olympics to tokyo for the benefit of tokyo. the IOC knew what summers in tokyo are like when they awarded the games. while the health of the athletes is important they should be prepared for the heat. even in qatar a lot of the athletes finished. doesn't triumphing over adversity make for superior athletes?

now one of the few events that tokyo residents could participate in for free is gone.

i'd rather they not have the olympics in japan at all, than see any money go to the crooked nepotistic IOC!

why don't they investigate biden while they're at it? if they want to get this out in the open let's get everything out in the open! drain the swamp!

why waste money on rehab? just let him suffer.

There is no indication the grandmother was bedridden.

its either that, dementia/alzheimer's or both? all speculation but the grandmother was getting up set by her grand daughter giving her a sponge bath which indicates that she couldn't take care of herself and possibly didn't recognize the grand daughter. tragic but understandable, not uncommon for a primary caregiver to snap. the question is whether there is anyplace she could have asked for help before it got to this point.

japan's debt is so big, the only way out is modern monetary theory. print money to pay off its obligations. might actually work if at the same time they cut taxes to zero. think of all the money that it would free up for consumers and companies to spend. whether it ends up in hyperinflation or not, depends on confidence in the value of the yen. so long as people believe it has value, it has value. interesting times...

don't see how government says there's no inflation. prices haven't risen cause those sneaky retailers keep cutting the volume so you get less for the same money.

the problem is what law has been broken. anti bribery laws typically forbid payments TO a public official or his family. in this case payment was FROM a public official. whether that was a misuse of public funds or not, is up to public.

if he's serious, he should push development of thorium salt reactors.

the reason its an issue is the koreans are making it an issue. why didn't they ban it for the seoul olympics, world cup, winter olympics, etc.? why now?

how childish...

she had to come back if the whole premise of his defense is that he did nothing wrong.

but even if he technically did nothing illegal, seems pretty shady...

in hawaii they hunt pigs with dogs and a knife. also heard that some people trap them by burying a 55gal steel drum at an angle and throwing in a bunch of rotten bananas/mangos or what have you. once they go in, their hoofs don't have the purchase to back out.

i don't know about "forced" but, having had a bad crop harvest last year and a huge army to feed, its possible that fat boy did the diplomatic equivalent of begging.

dreamers are exactly that. the reality is they are not legally in the US. while i feel for them, its their parents fault, if they want to stay they should go through proper channels.

just don't distribute the catalog in china. i'm sure they'd be very popular in taiwan. i don't see how they can complain in the disputed islands are excluded.

government breaching their contract to pay you the retirement they promised when you entered the work force cause they used your retirement money to pay their salaries and benefits.

tritium? glow in the dark fish anyone?

this was a horrible act but i seriously question whether it could have been prevented by more gun control. more people died in france when that truck plowed into the crowd or in mcveigh oklahoma bombing or in 9/11 for that matter. so do we need stricter controls over trucks, planes and fertilizer too? this guy was totally off the radar. if he didn't have access to guns would he have done something else? can you even prevent his access now that we can 3D print/mill them? on the other hand, the founding fathers put in the second amendment for a reason based on their experience. its the hedge against the government itself.

If NK nuked Japan, do any of you really think the U.S. would nuke NK? I doubt it. When push comes to shove, the only one who can protect you is you.

its not so much about consumption of whale meat. japan will continue whaling as whales eat too many fish!

unlikely but they should. can't rely on the U.S. to do what's best for Japan. the Ukraine gave up nukes for the promise of U.S. protection but look what it got them. economic sanctions, oooh, scary...won't work against China.

in this trump is basically correct, all fights take two. the problems is that all preferences can be characterized as a prejudice and the left has cloaked acting on their prejudices under the blanket of "political correctness".

any assurance is just words. when comes time to act, america will do what's in its best interest, not japan's.

why should you have to move to avoid someone because the other person is not paying attention and makes no move to try and avoid you also? its a two way street. they are as much running into you as you are into them.

apparently they also stayed unnecessary nights on "business" trips together

The stalker should be paying for this, not us.

exactly

they should have been put into bankruptcy....
