Posted in: Death row inmates want prior warning instead of being told on day of execution See in context
Just a short story related to this topic.
Inmate Handson stares at his cell wall thinking back to all the things he has ever done, when he hears the sound of boots coming down the row. The Warden is coming he gulped, quickly sitting up and stands at his cell bars.
Warden McFarcen stops at Handson's cell.
"How's it going Inmate Handson?" The Warden ask as he turns to face him, "g,good Warden McFarcen sir" Handson repies nervously. "Now, now you can just call me Warden.....I bet your wondering while I came all the way down here to your cell hmm?" "Yes sir" Handson answers back hoping today will not be that day he fears.
"Well normally I don't do this to most Inmates in your predicament but, I thought I come down here to let ya'll know that you Day will be this Thursday. I figure a man be told alittle early about his last time on earth rather than just walking you to the door on that day." The Warden paused for a moment, "I figure you may wanted to hear it from me instead of the guards. Are you ok with me tellin ya'll this now or.." "N,no Warden, I thank you for givin me the chance to know when my final day is.....w,will they be there to watch me?" Handson ask as he starts to tear. "Yes son, I'm sure they will, most victim's families never miss these events." The Warden paused one last time, "Just do the right thing this time and give your respect to that family."
Warden McFarcen walks off, back down the row. Inmate Handson listening to the boots as they fade away, he stare at his bars with tear in his eyes yet somewhat glad to at least know now that his day is about to come.

LIES! LIES AND SLANDERS! The PS2 never had a Blu-Ray Player, it only had a CD+DVD Player! There ends my short angry gaming nerd rant.
Oh on a side note does anyone remember if you took a PS1 or PS2 disc and put it into a CD player it would play the audio files. XD

Posted in: 8 U.S. sailors sue Japanese gov't, TEPCO for lying about radiation See in context
I understand that information about the levels were lied about but, really? Really? Sailors that live on a Nuclear powered Air Carrier are sueing? Ok to me this makes no sense.
I was one of the many US service members that volunteered to go down to Sendai with the rescue teams from other countries to look for survivors during Operation Tomodachi. When we were done down there, we were all tested for radation by Bio teams before being allowed back on base.
Which the point I'm making is why haven't the other countries (including the US Fire Fighter Teams) who sent a hundren civilian rescue workers to heavy affected areas during that time haven't filed for the same thing? Sometimes I question my Sister Branches actions about weird stuff.

Posted in: Fukushima kids fatter as radiation fears cut exercise See in context
I apologize in advance JT Moderator for going off topic real quick but, I will quickly go back to the topic at hand.
To correct my previous comment above for anyone who may have be confused or misinterpreted it. I meant the "Later" as being American Fat. I apologize to anyone who may thought I meant the other.
Now Back to the topic, If the education ministry believes that the children are gaining weight, then they should do more indoor sports/activities. If I recall most junior highs have indoor gyms right? Plus for their Science class, teach them the Fundamental about Radiation.
If parents are also concern about allowing there children to remain in certain areas they fear may have radiation then have a family fun time at home with the children, this I consider a double win because the the parent will be more involved with their children and they can make sure they get the exercise they need.
This is just some of my opinions about this topic. Merry Christmas All.

What the heck is going on down south? Seriously, us Troops up in Misawa just can't understand why these idiots are doing Stupid stuff. These fools are making us look disgraceful....sigh I just don't understand. I Love being a service member and being able to go to different countries and work with the locals, heck me and a few Japanese Nationals will spend all day just working on cars for fun on the weekends. You don't need to drink to have a great time in Japan. I think it's time to lock that base down like the bases at deployed locations (No going off base, No Drinking, etc). I bet if they locked it down for a couple years they might get some respect back from the community, but it might take a long time for that respect to be regained.

The fact that he had the same last name as me is weird. RIP Sailor o7 Also here are the curfew letter for all members:
I want to personally apologize for the grief and trauma the victim has endured and the anger it has caused among people in Okinawa. Under US PACOM Commander authority, I am immediately issuing a curfew to all military personnel in Japan, both temporary and assigned. In addition, core value retraining for military and SOFA civilians will be conducted by subordinate commanders and a review of the USFJ liberty policy will be executed over the coming days and weeks. Additional program details will follow.
Japan is one of our greatest allies, most trusted partners, and is the cornerstone of peace and stability in the Pacific region. We will continue to do all we can to ensure the U.S.-Japan relationship remains strong."
Following are points from the General Order that will go into effect at 2300, Friday, October 19, 2012:
Applies to members of the United States Armed Forces when in Japan, which includes personnel temporarily in Japan.
Curfew Policy. Off-installation curfew is in effect from 2300 until 0500 daily During the hours of curfew, service members must either be:
On a U.S. military installation Off the installation in a private-residence If on temporary duty (TDY/TAD), or on leave or pass, in their place of lodging, which may include a hotel room.Violations of this order are punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).

Just alittle info from CNN on this: A pilot who ejected after a U.S. fighter jet crashed into the waters off northern Japan on Sunday was rescued and was in stable condition, military officials said. The pilot was the sole person aboard an F-16 Fighting Falcon, which crashed about 200 miles northeast of Hokkaido Island. Japanese Coast Guard, Japan Self Defense Forces, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Navy and civilian vessels were among those agencies that worked to retrieve the pilot, now aboard a U.S. commercial vessel. "We are thankful for the support from our Japanese friends and other agencies committed to ensuring the safe recovery of our airman," said Col. Al Wimmer, 35th Fighter Wing vice commander. "The tireless efforts of everyone involved ensured a successful recovery," Wimmer added. "We are extremely grateful for their assistance and humbled by the rapid and skilled response. We are proud to be a part of such an effective alliance and send our most heartfelt thanks to all those involved." The pilot was not identified. The cause of the incident will be investigated. The craft was en route to North America when the crash occurred.
