The Battle of Midway was a catastrophic defeat for the Imperial Japanese Navy. There is no point arguing that fact. Please don't take it personally, accept it professionally and enjoy the rest of your day :)

The proposal also suggests the introduction of a mandatory child support payment scheme and the provision of better legal mechanisms for seizing assets in certain cases.

IMHO if there's no joint custody (one parent cut off from a relationship with their child) then there should be no mandatory child support payment.

When he last renewed his driver's license, he did not show any problems on dementia tests, local media reported.

Inaddition to dementia tests... What about enforcing 'reaction speed' and 'observational awareness' testing for all drivers above 65?

¥6,000 to enter a massive Harry Potter gift store, with a few interesting things to look at in between shopping.

Discrimination. No.

Inequality. Yes

The most common type of bad breath in Japan is the rotten kind. The type that can strip off paint or instantly kill flowers if blown on at short range. It has nothing to do with what they just ate or drank...

The main culprit is gum persistent disease. The cause is poor oral hygiene (especially lack of flossing). The result is constant decaying (rotting) food trapped between their teeth. It causes massive colonies of bacteria to thrive. Which in return causes the warm almost vomit inducing breath. It you've experienced it (probably if you live in Japan) you know the exact type of breath i'm referring too. Nasty business.

Why were they walking in the middle of the road. That's dangerous.

On Christmas day...

Nope... It's was just a normal Sunday in Japan. Nothing festive at all.

Let's be honest. 99.9% of men want:

Nice ass

Big boobs

Sense of humor

Make a nice sandwich afterwards

If those basic needs are met, she is a keeper despite beauty and money.

When renewing their license, over 70's should have to sit in a car simulator and pass a combined 'reaction speed' and 'observational awareness' tests...

Classic TIJ.

Unnecessarily overcomplicating things.

Scrap these ancient time wasting 'committee created' rules. Want to prove paternity. Take a DNA test and find out within a few days. Simple and clear.

What is more shocking, the story headline or his hairstyle?

I hope it isn't another selfish and tragic murder suicide.

For almost the same price as Jim Beam you can get Four Roses.

Four Roses is much tastier and smoother.

Jim Beam is a bit harsh / aggressive.

More expensive yes, but Buffalo Trace and Elijah Craig are my favourites :)

The cause for obesity has been known for years.

It is all forms of sugar (Fructose, Glucose) and insulin resistance.

Salt is fine. Out bodies can regulate salt (i.e sweat or pee it out if we have too much) but our body cannot regulate sugar (which it converts into fat and stores it).

Want to prevent obesity...

Avoid carbohydrates; wheat, oats, bread, pastry, potatoes, rice and pasta (which are basically sugar bombs)

Avoid fruit: they have been modified over the years and now contain way too much sugar. A modern apple from the supermarket contains the same amount of sugar as a bagel... There is no such thing as healthy sugar.

Eat more green vegetables, salad, healthy fat (Ghee, lard, tallow, butter, avocado) and protein (meat). Good balance is 50% veggies, 25% fat and 25% protein.

Best advice ever (fact) = Ketogenic lifestyle combined with intermittent fasting.

Bonus health tip (reduce cancer risk) avoid all seed oils, such as vegetable oil, canola oil etc. They are toxic and a major contributor to inflammation and cancer. At all costs avoid reheated seed oils. They are super toxic. The type of reused oil at nearly all fast food and discount food outlets.

@ Mark

let us all pray for his safety and a happy ending, please

Praying does nothing to help (apart from making you feel like you contributed).

Action (doing something) get results. Thinking to yourself does not.

That aside, I do hope this turns out well for the toddler and his family.

The trans woman, who was assigned male gender at birth...

Assigned? Nobody is assigned their gender at birth. Why use confusing language.

We all know what a boy or girl is at birth.

Nobody should be served halal food.

The slaughter process is brutal and causing unnecessary pain and suffering. Just look it up yourself on YT.

Religious beliefs should not come before animal welfare. and compassion.

726,342 divvied by 365 = 1,990 less Japanese people on average everyday single day...

Why is the US allowed to get away with drone missile strikes in other countries? Did they get permission from the Afghanistan government???

Wonder how the US would feel if another country launched a drone strike on US soil targeting someone they wanted?

But is it halal???

For the final moments of the lambs welfare, I hope not.

Why Halal?

Did you the 'Halal' slaughter method is brutal, barbaric and totally unnecessary. Don't believe me, look it up :( The animals spent their last few minutes terrified and in agony whilst they slowly bleed to death from having their throat slit and then being hung upside down drowning in their own blood. The 'Halal' method refuses to stun the animals first or use an instant death method. They prefer the slow agonizing death approach... This is factual. Halal method of slaughter is banned in many civilized European countries.

How much artificial additives goes into them?

A heartless government and society that continuously allows these 'preventable' mass shootings to occur.

Want them to stop. Look to other nations and see how many mass shootings occur after they decided to 'ban all firearms'. It is the ONLY solution. No excuses.

“Teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime” - Lao Tzu

Teach a man how to market and sell fish, then he can eat whatever he likes ;)

Remove consumption tax on food and non alcoholic drinks. That would help everyone. Especially low income families.

BTW here is the uncensored version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myjEoDypUD8

Chris was doing his job (well) and Will acted like a typical entitled A list celebrity so embarrassing. Oh yeah why wasn't he arrested on assault charges??? The hypocrisy in his 'love not violence' apology.

Workaholic Japan.... No

The real problem, which begins at school and continues in the workplace is: Institutionalized bullying, passive-aggressive behavior and hammering hard anyone that dares to mention it.

The 'cancel culture' and 'I am offended' movement is in itself toxic and nauseating..
