I'm sure the "criminal complaint" will disappear when money changes hands.

"arguing an expection for the 23-time major winner should be made for Thursday's draw."

I presume that should be "exception."

Armand Assante was great as Gotti in the HBO movie, much better than Travolta could ever be.

It doesn't matter that the girl / her parents accepted a monetary settlement. A 46-old-man sexually assaulted a minor and should be prosecuted.

Actually, "on" is not missing. The wording on the red T-shirt is a list of the constituent parts of a Big Mac, not a description of how one is put together. And let's not forget, these are T-shirts, not English grammar textbooks.

And what's a "gingle"?

Congratulations from one very corrupt politician to another, Who care what the people want as long as we stay in power.

I saw another stupid AP story that said he had been "pulled early." He was scheduled to go two innings or throw 30 pitches, so he wasn't "pulled early." Stupid journalists trying to sensationalize nothing.

I remember when I first came to Japan in the 1980s, you had to pay an "Airport Tax" of around 3,000 yen when you left. It was always worth it!

The first quake had a magnitude of 5.5 on the Richter scale. It registered a 4 on the Japanese scale of 7.

The building in Shibaura is owned by NIFCO and The Japan Times occupies only 2 of its 14 floors. So the real estate may not be part of the deal.

People are talking about swastikas

because their display in Japan is more evidence of Japanese ignorance of what such Nazi regalia stand for / symbolize.

One of the decorations of an apartment building lobby in Gotokuji, Tokyo, is a framed swastika.

Great picture selection for the Jones' abuse lead, showing the "Hot Chocolate" vendor in the background . Hope the PC police don't regard my comment as racist.

It wasn't the masks, It was the fact that they were foreigners wearing masks. Parochial, xenophobic Brits. They spend all their time reading The Sun newspaper and watching Coronation Street, they have no idea what is happening beyond the end of their streets.

This is not abuse, it is murder. Japan has the death penalty, due the right thing for the poor little lad.
