Posted in: Bin Laden's death prompts questions about legality See in context

Terrorists have re-written the rules (bus,train,embassy...... bombings) killing of innocent people (children, women), so why shouldn't the USA act equally as harshly. The only way to erradicate this problem is exactly what the US have done = a bullet in the head to any of these offenders. Well done America.

Job well done USA. Once again some people chastise americans rather than thanking them. As an Australian i for one am very happy with Americas stance on facits, terrorists and tyranists these people are not entitled to any rights as they themselves afford none to their victims. This is the only way to deal with these animals = shoot first questions later. Bye bye laden see you in the bin.

I guess he's had a long time to regret what he did, now its time to start making excuses to justify murder with manslaughter. Either way this boy is going down.....

Love his reasoning to the police "I like girls", so do i, but I usually prefer them after they have gone through puberty.

The only ones who will lose, are the superficial japanese that love these starlets till they find the next thing to swoon over. Besides I was hoping to catch up with paris to get some of her contacts. She's still a champ in my eyes.

Posted in: China making anime push as Japan hits slump See in context

Perhaps its time people used their spare time reading or studying more relevant useful information rather than having 40 year olds still reading comics. Shouldn't they be focussing on the economy, language, relevant current issues etc... I still find it funny that every convenie and train I go on allages read comics doesn't make sence to me. I liked them....when i was 10.

Posted in: 'The Cove' puts Japanese fishermen everywhere on the defense See in context

Either way it is just SO WRONG. How can you kill such majestic intelligent animals. I found watching the "cove" deeply disturbing. I never realised this was happening and I feel very strongly that something has to be done about this.

Posted in: Growing number of men have no close friends See in context

I can understand this as a foreigner who has in 8 years had 1 male japanese friend and a casual one at that. Unfortunately I feel like the token gaijing when joining in functions with most japanese yet excluded in other certain situations. Bicultural : Japanese society opens itself up to "assessment" for a reason : this being the fact that there are obviously certain "problems" whether they are surfaced or underying which are swept under the carpet or not acknowledged or talked about, which clearly is expressed moreso amongst my foreign friends whether that be disdain at work to intimacies about physical relationships.

Posted in: Principal fails in cover-up after student's rib fractured by teacher See in context

Its a double edged sword situation. As a junior high teacher myself I can understant the teachers actions as there are many a student I would want to throttle myself, on the otherside a teacher has to have its boundries and physical abuse is one of them. But trully we dont know the real situation as we were not there, it may have been instigated or may not we will never know.

Posted in: Japan won 5 medals at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. How would you assess the results? See in context

For a country with over 120,000,000 people and decent winter conditions would have thought they could have got at least 1 gold! But as an Australian I happy, as we've outdone them again and I get bragging rights with all my japanese co-workers, now its the last 2 winter and summer olympics and the world cup soccer and rugby....

Agree with WilliB exactly! Good for you. All of a sudden people are angry that a dirty murdering terrorist has been put to justice! I wonder how these people would react if their loved ones were killed by this animal. The same action would be taken by the Americans, british etc...but because they are not Israeli or Jewish their action are condoned. Obviously alot of Anti-semites out there. Good on you Israel!

Japanese coach for japan was a bad idea to start! You need someone who comes from a winning culture, not one that comes from mediocraty! They really should have gone European, more discipline, style, skill class.... This world cup is too late. What a joke that Okada says Japan can be top 4, How cocky or foolish is he going to look when they dont even get through their group stage.

Posted in: The dumbing down of Japanese students See in context

Actually might come down to personality traits or the system. I actually asked a teacher to explain something in class if I didnt understand it, here i find students are either to scared embarrassed or the cuture to speak freely isn't here. This is the start to rectifying these problems.

Posted in: The dumbing down of Japanese students See in context

This is a scary truth! I am actually a junior high school teacher year 7-9 and am actually quite surprised at the lack of general knowledge that most of my students display. General world facts, geography, history etc... I really would like to know what they learn in elementary school and other subjects. Supposedly they spend so much time studying at home and in Juku's, What are they studying is the question I would like to know.

But he bowed and said Im sorry. Shouldn't that be the end of it? I thought thats how it how it works in Japan. Get down low and say honto ni gommenasai and all is forgiven.

Posted in: Bosses uptight over newbies' ignorance of phone protocol See in context

Its not necessarily the newbies fault, you cant change years of certain ways of upbringing. Many japanese are not taught to think outside the box. To be analagous they remind me of the "Borg" in star treck "collective thinking, lack of individuality yet they dont integrate all aspects of other cultures. I wish them all the best and hope they change their way of thinking.
