We already pay a Fukushima premium in addition to our income taxes and it is highly likely that now there will be a second additional to income taxes in the form of the Olympic premium. What an absolute farce this all is.

Disgraceful behaviour. Why does any one ingulge in such disgusting behaviour? Why didn't he just get himself a girlfriend? As it is, he may find he will be regularly molested by Mr Big inside.....
And I agree with self defence classes/martial arts classes for all girls and women. These so called "men" won't be so keen to molest and attack women if they know they could get hurt..... At my Taekwondo club there are some females with a fearsome ability to defend themselves in need.

Posted in: Judo in Japan getting unwanted scrutiny for abuse, violence See in context
I am a second dan in both Judo and Taekwondo. It's actually amazing the difference in the atmosphere between the 2 clubs here in Japan. The Judo club has a very strict severe atmosphere where everybody is supposed to know their place and woe betide anyone who steps out of their role.... On the other hand, the Taekwondo club where I help with the teaching, has a much more relaxed and easy atmosphere and I think is a lot more enjoyable for everyone.

Enjoyable debate with President Trump the clear winner. 4 more years are a dead cert. Biden looked exactly as he is, a stumbling dementia suffering old man. He cannot be president and fortunately he will get nowhere near the presidency.
And biden never condemns the marxist terrorist group blm so there's no reason for President Trump to condemn their counterparts on the Right. Amusing watching the lefties getting all hot under the collar about the White Supremacists while never saying a word about the blm terrorists!
Watching biden just made me laugh to be honest. Is this best the democrats can do??

So blatantly obvious that the Js are trying buy Ghosn back. It won't work. Firstly Lebanon will not extradite one of their own citizens and secondly, they know Ghosn was the victim of a set up. The Js should put Sakawa et al in prison before trying to bribe Lebanon to send him back.
