Posted in: SDF recruit sent to prosecutors over shooting that left 2 dead See in context

"opened fire after being admonished by a 52-year-old instructor, and that he was only targeting one of the three men who were shot."

That's a good reason to be yelled at, inside a firing range, if I've ever heard one.

ME thinks that a good sign of change would be if that person was the PM, actually I also think that she would do a better job as well.

I am pretty sure that the sky high prices for all their flights do NOT hurt their profits.

Posted in: Toyota's next CEO says management will lead aggressive push on EVs See in context

I sure hope Toyota's employees don't have too bad of a whiplash with this 180 degrees change in direction. The sad thing is that Toyota will release some half**sed car and everyone will buy it, instead of challenging Toyota to really make something good.

Posted in: Toyota invests in EV battery production in Japan, U.S. See in context

Too little, too late.

Toyota choked to switch to EV and they are now trying to catch up with the other car makers. And seems like they are still reluctant to do so. Toyota has been one good mirror to the Japanese economy, let's hope Tesla will not damage Toyota like Apple did to the phone makers in Japan a few years back.

Posted in: 7 in 10 Japanese support Russia sanctions even if they feel impact: survey See in context

It is all good when a drop in your livelihood still keep you quite comfortable. The problem shows it's ugly head when that same drop means someone will not be able to feed their family. A globalized world means that a conflict of this magnitude hurts everyone, although some will feel way more than others.

"There may be a large number of potentially infected people who have not been tested," the experts said

I bet these experts were from the comments from yesterday's article.

Ok, I am done with crime articles for today. I can not imagine what kind of human being capable of inflicting that much pain to anyone, let alone to the people closest to him.

Posted in: Americans apologize to Tokyo court for role in Ghosn escape See in context

This is all just a play that was probably set in motion some time ago when the JGov was negotiating the Taylors extradition to Japan. I would guess it went like this "You, The US, send us the 2 perps so that the Japanese judicial system doesn't look so bad and we will keep them here fed and happy for a few months, then they apologize in public and we will cut them loose." The Taylors will put this behind them, Japanese judicial system saves face and the US will look like they conform to the international agreements they did sign.

Olympics and economic benefits just don't go together unless you put IOC in the sentence as in "Olympics, IOC economic benefits"

How about vaccinating the elderly and adults first. This is just more nonsense from JGov, we should be used to it by now...

Posted in: Japan decides not to procure insulin syringes for COVID-19 vaccinations See in context

20% more people could get vaccinated and the decision is NOT to use it. Sounds really fishy! How about we make sure the amount normally used is supplied and use the rest for the covid vaccine? Even if only seven syringes are used that means 2 extra people would get the shots.

Posted in: Website maps complaints of neighborhoods with noisy children See in context

they sprayed some insecticide indiscriminately and it was everywhere and came inside. Second, during some times of year they used some noise making machine to scare away birds that sounded like a shotgun. I almost went insane for lack of sleep.

Yes, the shotgun sound is a bit annoying, but they use it only around sunset and not so close to me, mostly I dislike it because I like the sight of the birds around. I have noticed the spraying as well we are fortunate that the land right around us is mostly unused, but there are times I see them spraying the fields and it is scary for I have no idea what they are. One part that was almost a deal breaker was the distance to the elementary school, a good 30 minutes walk, but the kids seem to enjoy the walk.

Posted in: Website maps complaints of neighborhoods with noisy children See in context

I just checked the link hahaha. 5 years ago I bought a house in the middle of agricultural land and sold my "Terrace Mansion" and I never looked back. It is really nice to have space for parking a lot of cars, having a big dog (great dane) and still enough space for the kids to run around and not worry about the neighbors. And it is not in a remote area by any means, there are restaurants, conbinis, schools etc within a 3 minutes car ride or a 10 minutes walk.

Posted in: 1,032 shots of COVID-19 vaccine wasted due to freezer malfunction See in context

Now that it's been approved to store Pfizer vaccine in a normal freezer for two weeks, is it impossible to have them into people's arms before that, in other words, less reliant on these special freezers?
