She seems like one seriously insecure chick, run a mile from those ones gents!

^^^^ The problem with 'making' the stalker move and not the victim, is that the stalker will still know exactly where their victim lives. I agree it's not right that way but that's just the reality.

^^^^ Have you done day trips to Chiba Kohakuebisu? With the right timed drives from Tokyo I can do Onjuku in a little over an hour via the aqualine.

You are correct Strangerland. I go down that way a lot with the family and having had a couple of really horrendous drives we drive down after work and dinner on Friday evening. For the return we spend all Sunday on the beach, go for an onsen and evening meal so the children are all washed, fed and changed into their pajamas and start the drive back around 8pm and it's fine. Trying to drive during the day on Saturday or Sunday is totally pointless.

It's a really nice train journey there from Tokyo and when it was just myself and wife we did it that way but now it's just way more practical for us to take the car.

It's fairly obvious which super powers those countries will invite extra funding and investment from now isn't it. Trumps doing a grand job of eroding Americas global support and just handing it on a plate to China and Russia. He's not really cut out for this global politics malarky is he.

This is all the making of good ol' uncle Sam. The economy is responding negatively to Trumps trade and economic policies, so his puppet masters are creating a diversion.

This so called Iranian boat was able to approach a tanker that had been damaged by explosives already. How is that possible? Why was that damaged tanker drifting apparently completely unguarded by any navy boats in the immediate area? It really doesn't make any sense.

Have you seen any evidence of them tracking where the boat came from or where it went to? I would believe the video much more if they showed that evidence. Also, Iran managed to intercept US boats before, embarrassing isn't it.

watch the video first then suggest how you would go about intercepting the boat, in the Gulf of Oman, in the dark.

Assuming it's all possible, because you're ace interceptor, what next?

The US got what they needed....

I had already watched the video. So are you saying the full might of America's military hardware can't cope with an 'Iranian' boat in the dark......?

Last month Washington revoked sanctions waivers that had allowed some countries, including Japan, to buy Iranian crude. In its latest move, the U.S. Treasury prohibited companies on Friday from doing business with Iran’s largest petrochemical group, citing ties to Iran’s Revolutionary Guards.

The world should also be calling out U.S military ties to certain corporations who massively benefit from their phony wars. It's time the world ignored U.S sanctions and just got on with their business. The U.S is interested in helping no one but themselves.

Kniknak, I totally agree with you. My dad was saying that about US interstates 40 years ago. In this instance, it's not the cause though:

The accident occurred about 3 kilometers east of the Meishin Expressway's Ryuo Interchange where one of the two lanes was closed for repair work at the time, the police said.

Thanks, jeez I even 'read' the article and all!

I can't say the place has ever really appealed to me. If I want to drink I go to a proper bar and if I want Italian food I go to a decent Italian....

The US claims to have a video of an Iran removing a mine from the tanker. Why was that 'Iranian' boat not intercepted, can the US tell us why? Was it tracked back to it's port, can they show us that evidence?

The public are very skeptical of the US claims these days because they have blatantly lied in the past to 'justify' starting a war for their own interests.

The US and Israel in cahoots on this one I reckon.

I've said it before and i'll keep saying it. Trucks and buses should be restricted to the inside lane on expressways with overtaking only permitted on the middle lane. I'm not sure what lane this happened in but i'm certain it would reduce the number of accidents involving trucks on expressways here.

This just goes to show how important it is for parents to actively engage their children, not just provide for them.

He was probably sitting between them with his arms around both of them for 10 minutes.

Errrr so if he was last seen alive 1900 Saturday then a nurse found him dead at 1730ish Sunday what the hell was he supposed to be doing for food???

why do people feel they need notifications set to go off for every single thing on their phone? It's just stupid.

Politicians start hijacking the history for their own gain because there's not a living witness left to call out their BS.

Poor old guy ..No he shouldn't have sent such threatening letters , but at the same time , these stupid Mothers should make sure their kids behave themselves when out in public I am quite confident to tell a child to be quiet or even shout " be quiet" in my neighbourhood if I see them being too loud . Don't care if the Mother or the Father is around at the time either .

Oh how I wish you lived in my neighbourhood and tried that.

Let's face it.

Who WANTS lots of children???

Me! I just don't want to go through the process of having lots of babies, 2 was enough. Children are hilarious and awesome!

I was amazed at what such little bums can fill a nappy with. I can't say I particularly enjoyed it but it certainly was an eye watering and eye opening experience.

With the short lifespan of buildings here it really would be simple for planners to stipulate new builds are more energy self-sufficient.

More reliance on nuclear energy you say? What could possibly go wrong!?

Do the old git for assault at least then, don't just let him walk.

My question would be, why would anyone even want to live in Tokyo?

To answer your question at least from my point of view, there are some great neighbourhoods to live in Tokyo. I'm very happy where I live with my family, the only thing being i'd like a garden with my house but there are plenty of other ares for the children to play.

I find Tokyo very fun and convenient to live in and I make way more money here than I would elsewhere, which will allow me to retire earlier and live wherever we want. I find the key to living in Tokyo happily is to avoid using public transport during rush hours.

He should be made to wear heels for a week or something.

amid concern about growing drug use among ordinary people

Well who the hell do they think use drugs? Extraordinary people???

What a waste of time and money taking it to court. A fine and police order to attend some drug rehabilitation classes would be adequate.

Section them and rehabilitate them when in secure care. They obviously have mental problems.
