Time with family!

Just start the day earlier!

Why should "they (S. Korea, N. Korea, China and even the USA) want Japan to take any credit.

Japanese, French, Brazilian, Bosnian, what Japan needs is to decide on a style, and stick to it.

And / or downgrade the event.

Absolutely not. Teachers' are there to teach.

What kind of question is this!

Very good initiative. Another way to restrict gun usage is to strictly control the sale / purchase of ammunition.

We should learn from countries such as Iceland.

Yes and no. I do not have what people may call a home theatre. However, depending on the film, and if you consider the price to take a family of four, and the added costs why not. (Especially in countries in which the ticket prices, snacks and drinks, transportation is not cheap like Japan.)

The God Father (series)

Well, if they are students in Sapporo, they don't have to "return".

Its been a while since Japanese designers made a splash internationally. Good luck!

If we look back at recent Olympics, there are few. I can only think of Barcelona, in which benefits did take place.

What was the deal? The athletics team ban to allow the others?

It is a kind of system that has been on in Spain for many years (jornada intensiva). I'm all for it!

Will Sean Connery join as well?

No single source is enough. Should be a combination as no country / location is the same.

Should European city maps stop using the "cross" to respect other religions such as Islam? There must be a way to show respect.

Basically no, as long as they are legally a minor.

The Olympic motto is made up of three Latin words : Citius - Altius - Fortius. These words mean Faster - Higher - Stronger. I prefer sports that can be measured, and not those that human beings judge and score.

There are countries that allow legal non-national residents to vote at least in local elections.

Laws relating to the "under aged" must also be reviewed, but the single largest issue is how to deal with voter apathy. Is it education? Should voting be compulsory as in some countries?

Well done! But still slow. Why news coverage from day two already showed rescue teams from nearby countries such as China, India, etc and even from further away countries such as France, Germany, Turkey, Israel, etc. Japan, as a country that has its own earthquakes, should be able to deploy aid even quicker.

Laudrup leading Japan would be a great move. Great player he was, and with experience as a coach. But rumours say that many European clubs want to hire him.

NO! In a democracy, people should have the liberty as long as they are of adult-age. However, if you have looked for the risk, you (nor your close family) shouldn't expect the government to help you.

Despite the heavy rain on Sunday, great participation by the Brazilian community in Japan.

And the vote results in Japan, http://www.ipcdigital.com/comunidade/eleitores-de-toquio-ibaraki-e-nagano-elegem-aecio/

And back on the 26th.

From a national side perspective, they must really consider finding consistency, and not changing coaches - Japanese, French, Brazilian, Italian, Mexican after every major tournament.

Its becoming ever more difficult for smaller markets to survive. Just hope that under Lawson, Seijo Ishii mantains and hopefully expands their "imported" produce, as it is valued by the expatriate community.

Absolutely not. In the event that it is, it should be sold immediately.
