Perhaps the unrelenting workload is a result of Japan’s declining birth rate as the country simply does not have enough hands to take up the educator’s mantle, which means a ton of responsibilities being dumped onto Japanese teachers every day.

Or perhaps not.

Wouldn't a declining birthrate lead to less teachers and .... less children / students?

Nope. I would expect a bit of due process, though

So she stabbed him in the head but left a good impression ?

I miss the old dynamite fights on New year's Eve. Pride wasn't bad either.

This will be something to talk about with otousan lol

Wow 25 and 3 kids already. These 2 idiots needed a lot more life experience before starting a family.

I hope the other kids are far away from their "parents"

The truth is he wasn't a good president and if the accusations against him are true then he wasn't a good guy either -

But when compared to the current president, he looks like a saint

It'll be back on by the end of the week - flip flop

A just sentence for the crime. Hopefully this case will act as a deterrent

Wow, nice little racket these Koreans have going on here.

So, we should pay every how many years ?

Aircraft carriers are not for self defense. Not surprised anyway, we all said they would change it

Whenever this happens I start to worry about earthquakes.

Making sure pilots don't drink and fly seems like a no-brainer. I don't understand what you're complaining about

Most disasters happen because of various things that go wrong at the time, though.

On top of that, you can't be messing around when it comes to people's lives.

If I was playing Risk, I wouldn't give up those islands either.

Agent, I remember almost nothing from any school book that I read 20 years ago.

The internet in Japan is not censured so people are able to read up on Japan's dark history there.

People need to read up on history before commenting on topic.

I think this shows that japan can apologize for past aggression but other parties have to show that it's not one-sided

A few of them are already dead. MBS is cleaning house.

Another guy that "just wanted to kill someone" - hero train station employee.

I'm really sorry to say that I'm completely desensitized to this kind of news.

I must sound so cold but it's just another day in America.

I completely understand why countries like Russia and Canada don't care about climate change - they are set to come out on top with a 2degree rise in temperatures.

But America ? You guys are going to get hit hard by this

SO he thinks something is happening, but he doesn't know what it, but he knows that it"ll change back in a million years or so ....

This guy is a tool

Agreed. We just slapped a fancy name on it (QE)

Rats are problem in places older than 50 in tokyo, but i agree with u that they probably exaggerated the issue to suit their situation.

As a dad, I feel terribly sad for this guy. Coming home to find his babies are gone -

CrazyJoe, don't just on the bandwagon and repeat that drivel that British voters were deceived. It's a popular thing to say but just not true. The general sentiment in England today is roughly the same as it was when people voted - 50/50.

52% of brits voted to leave, that is a majority. It's not nice, it's not pretty, but it is what it is and now we need to leave.

The United Kingdom joined the European Economic Community (as it then was) on 1 January 1973 with Denmark and Ireland.

There it is. We signed up to be part of an economic community, not what the EU has morphed into today.

English people are fed with being told that they have to do.  What is the problem with that?

Japan gets to pick and choose who comes into their country and who doesn't.

A long-term solution to a short-term problem - suicide is never the answer

The uk will be ok with it's 'keep calm and carry on' motto -

You can bet the eu are going to play the bitter ex-partner though - they have to keep the other 27 in check

I wonder what kind of strings will be attached to this new visa.

You can bet they'll have something in there that makes sure people have to leave after a few years - ''help us look after our old people, as long as we don't have to look after u''

These retired police officers are doing a good thing here - hope it helps catch that funny looking guy quickly
