Oh to see the blossoms in DC....
@tabana: I took a quick look at that blog. The bridge you see is actually the Bay Bridge. And they got to see the Pixar studio which is located in Emeryville, at the other side of the Bay Bridge. :mrgreen:

Executive of Continental Airlines Japan busted for hiring child prostitute
An executive of the Japan branch of Continental Airlines has been arrested for paying a 14-year-old junior high school girl to have sex with him, police said Friday.
Koji Arima, 55, general manager for marketing in Japan, is accused of violating the anti-child pornography and prostitution law.
Arima admitted to the allegations during questioning. "I wanted to have a (sexual) relationship with a young girl. I knew it was bad, but I never dreamed I would be arrested. I'm sorry for the girl," he was quoted as telling investigators.
The U.S.-based major airline expressed regret over the incident. "It'd be indeed regrettable if the charges pressed against him are correct. We'll take strict punitive measures against him," an official of Continental Airlines' public relations division said.
Arima paid the victim, a second-year junior high school girl from Tokyo, 10,000 yen to have sex with him at a Tokyo hotel in early December last year, Tokyo police said. He had met the girl in early November and investigators suspect that he paid her to have sex with him then, too.
Arima had got acquainted with the girl through a website in late October last year.
The incident came to light after the victim's mother found that her daughter had more money than usual and consulted local police. (Mainichi)

The record number of women groped on Tokyofs trains continue to rise. As the suburban trains are usually crowded, bringing the workers to large cities and back to their suburban homes, close physical contact is unavoidable. Many men use this to their advantage, pressing onto women and groping them. The groping problem is so extreme that Tokyo started a campaign of women-only carriages. So howfs a groper supposed to get his kicks? Welcome to gTrain Cafe,h a simulated train where groping is allowed just minutes away from Tokyofs Ikebukuro station.
The cost to ride is 5,000 yen (~$42US). Once each hour, Train Cafe holds an gall aboardh event, where the paying male members gboardh the train together with the girls and engage in simulated echikanf (groper) play. Each 20 minute ride allows gropers to grabs any girlfs behinds or breasts. Upskirt grabs arenft allowed and will result in a violation. Since the girls are just normal folk that hang out at the Cafe after work, male attenders are free to ask them for a date or drink after the session has ended. Could you imagine an Amtrak version of this in the states?

This is insane. :rofl: I guess it's not as bad as prostitution, but... I almost want to go to that place and laugh at the guys who enters the cafe. :hehe:

she prolly bought her mom an LV purse with the cash to make her feel better.
:rofl: I read too much of those waiwai stories. A few of them are on house wives trying to kill the boredom and get extra cash at the same time too. I remember the special taxi. That was hilarious. :hehe:
As for the cafe, maybe it's the kind of thing we need to solve the traffic jams. :hehe: :nut: At least everybody in there are willing. I don't think it'll solve the problem in the trains, if not create more gropers... =T
