Long time no see, Rubian... hope things are going well with you. We need more predictions created by you. :)

The chance is not low in other less-secure area, but surely no attack on Beijing or any Olympic events.

i don't think they would resolve the issue ever - but there will be a negotiation very soon to restore the relationship. will they bring the issue to the international court (if any)?

i wish but my apartment in Japan is way too small for this device.

just verbal attack :p

Americans long for a change. The political environment is more favorable for Democrats.

no but i doubt it can be implemented in other countries with great concern of privacy.

despite the absence of US and others, it's just an important step for the global nations.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Government officials say the Interior Department has decided to protect the polar bear as a threatened species because of global warming.

The officials told The Associated Press the bears are threatened by the decline in Arctic sea ice. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the official announcement was to come from Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne. He scheduled a news conference Wednesday.

The action comes a day before a court-imposed deadline on deciding whether the bear should be put under the protection of the federal Endangered Species Act.

The department will cite studies by its own scientists saying the decline in Arctic sea ice could result in two-thirds of the polar bears disappearing by mid-century.

isn't it against privacy!? or genetics-discrimination??

does it improve the community quality overall in the area?

So do you support or against polygamy?

Ha :) agree. Clean water is much more valuable than money.

and it defeats the purpose of online Wikipedia where writers can update the articles anytime.

what a waste of paper. please don't.

we should have enough food for everyone but we are selfish ...

Sorry. I don't sense that Americans have great concern about the use of plastic bags. Americans are really behind the world trend in environmental protection.

FYI. Biodegradable bags are made of plastic. The disadvantage with biodegradable plastic is that degradation occurs very slowly, if at all, in a sealed landfill. Also, biodegradable plastics cannot be mixed with other plastics when sent for recycling; This damages the recycled plastic and reduces its value.

So I rather a complete ban on both traditional and biodegradable bags.

For death penalty, it means victims pay an irreversible price for miscarriages of justice. Since the system has been operational for many years and not been challenged by local Japanese, the Amnesty International may find no way to convince the Justice Ministry.

i bet they will never grant full permission to develop the embryos beyond 14 days, but they will cont' the project for sure.
