Ahh. Look at all the trees and greenery in the photo.

So, so in tune with nature.

The company that gave the world the Datsun 1600 and the Fairlady Z.

What a shame.

Sorry my calculations were off.

I must have been thinking of something else.

However, this is soft crime.

Maybe a soft crime, but my guess it was hard work.

You don't end up with $3,330 a day by doing nothing.

That is with living expenses taken out too.

Great summary.

Thank you.

The 40-year-old Indonesian man was the only person to successfully pass the first SSW automobile and transportation business test, which was held in December and also covers taxi and delivery truck driver work.

The only person or the only non-Japanese person?

If the only person, that could be a reason for the driver shortage couldn't it?

I wonder how many took the test and what it costs to complete such a specialized driving course.?

They now free to head off to a country that approves of their actions and opinions.

Enjoy your new freedoms!

Yep that’s what happens when you get fired.

The ex head of the US Coast Guard was given 3 hours notice to vacate her on base residence!

re; But the Committee for the Inquest of Prosecution decided it was inappropriate not to prosecute Ikeda

This system of citizen oversight of legal cases has been quite successful.

It certainly shows up the weaknesses in the Japanese legal and prosecution world.

Yep Zapoid. That nasty CDC. Who needs those lazy inept "specialists"?

RE; About 44% of adults got flu shots this winter, the same as last winter. But coverage of children is way down, at about 45% this winter. It’s usually around 50%, according to CDC data.

Ha data, Who needs to know what is actually happening to the health of the population?

We can just guess can't we?

Great overview.

Thank you.

RE; Mizuhara has acknowledged using the money to cover his growing gambling bets and debts with an illegal bookmaker, in addition to $325,000 worth of baseball cards and his own dental bills.

What I don't understand is how the gambling mob can keep the money.

Haven't they received stolen goods?

Shouldn't those stolen goods be returned to the owner?

RE: Two in three women experience physical or sexual violence in the Pacific region, she added.

And what would halting or reducing aid do to stop that?

Err?

Isn't that called ethnic cleansing?

RE; 15% for U.S. coal and LNG and 10% for crude oil, farm equipment and some autos.

This is what they across a shot across the bow.

China has kept the big weapon in reserve,

American agricultural products are the biggest vulnerability.

If US produce is kept out or become unappealing due to high prices, there are plenty of countries ready to step in.

US farmers know this.

"All my life I have fought for a better world. I believe light will always triumph over darkness."

Wow! A Jedi no less.

RE; the $56 billion bilateral trade deficit

That is one year.

Imagine what the cumulative imbalance has built up to over the past 30 years or so.

I wonder which countries the US DOESN'T have a trade imbalance with?

Err, The photo looks like Assad with a beard.

Are we being hoodwinked here?

This case is so murky.

RE: Minato justified the decision to not disclose the incident in consideration of "the woman's physical and mental recovery as well as the protection of her privacy."

The victim could just as easily requested that Fuji TV NOT disclose her identity or the circumstances.

Can't blame Chinese imports for this one.

2009: President Obama imposed a 35% tariff on Chinese tire imports. This was in response to a petition filed by the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers Union. 

2015: The U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) imposed anti-dumping duties of around 31% on Chinese tire imports. 

2019: The US imposed tariffs on Chinese truck and bus tire imports.

Hi Wallace.

Maybe you have a better idea than me.

Could you explain why you post was voted down?

Hi Fighto

RE: Terror group Hamas had better stick to the deal and release ALL hostages. If they don't, they know exactly what is coming.

What do you think is coming after all of the hostages have been released or accounted for?

The Japanese university system is a joke.

The shinkansen.

Seto Ohashi.

Earthquake proof buildings and infrastructure.

The number of Japanese recipients of the Nobel Prize and other awards in science.

All products of the Japanese university system.

Binken was only able to do what he did with the support of Bibi.

Twin Peaks changed TV for ever.

His version of Dune was such a dud.

to reserve an admission ticket, then book the date and time of a visit and finally enter lotteries to see particular pavilions and special events makes the process too complex.

Then enter enter credit card , personal details and PAY

This is is THE BEST,

Miyagi and Sendai not mentioned once.

Great stuff . Keep it up the good work!!!!

Re; USS certainly has dodged an economic pearl harbor. Allowing it to be asset stripped and cannibalized would have been horrendous,

Yep. No American firm would do such a thing, would they Grekko.

Taiwanese firms are also making plans.

A few new Taiwanese plants in the Industrial estate near me and close cooperation with Tohoku daigaku.

RE: He also said he was only permitted to take two showers in six months.

Hmm. How about baths?
