I'm not a big fan of the Japan Supreme court, as my experience with it was when they summarily ruled that the Otaru Onsens Case (which involved racial discrimination, Japan Constitution Article 14) was "unrelated to constitutional issues". This after only a couple of months of deliberation (it usually takes many years for rulings to come down). It also refused to hear the case for Gwen Gallagher vs. Asahikawa University case, where she was fired for not being "fresh" (their words) enough to teach. And also, given Japan's lower court rulings, because she's a woman. Yes, the JSC does sometimes issue miraculous rulings, such as this recent one regarding international children and J citizenship laws (causing some speculation that the JSC is in fact becoming more liberal; a bit premature IMO). But given the odd conservatism seen otherwise (such as the Chong-san case a few years back, ruling that denying a Zainichi the right to sit Tokyo medical administrative exams, merely because she's a foreigner, is constitutional), that's why they're miraculous. Anyway, read on. My favorite bit is at the end on how we can vote on Supreme court justices. (I've done so when I voted.) It's not much of an indicator--abstaining from voting for someone is counted as a "yes" vote (yes, I asked), meaning it's not a majority of "yes" vs "no" votes, it's "yes and no vote" vs "no" votes, meaning it's highly unlikely the public could ever turf out a Robert Bork ty ...

From The Register 2nd October 2008 - quote:California governor Schwarzenegger has signed a law making the illegitimate reading of RFID tags illegal, but blocked a measure making the unauthorised tracking of kids equally so. RFID Journal reports that anyone skimming an RFID tag issued by a government agency, health insurance company, employer or library could find themselves in prison for up to a year, or facing a $1,500 fine, though you're OK if you read it by accident, for a medical emergency or if you're a law-enforcement official. The measure also protects RFID tags issued by schools, which is good, because schools aren't required to tell parents that their kids are being RFID-equipped, thanks to the governor's blocking of law that would have required parental consent. Anti-skimming laws are popping up all over the place: Washington passed one back in May, and Japan has had anti-skimming legislation since 2005. In many countries computer-hacking laws already cover the illegitimate reading of personal data, even if that data only comprises an identification number, but many of those still need to be tested in court before the legality of such action is known for sure. The US passport comes with a foil wrapper designed to prevent skimming of the RFID data, but it's been shown to fail if the passport is even slightly open. The UK Passport Office has made no such attempt, making skimming technically easy if allegedly pointless. The ide ...

"Two men enter, one man leaves." Except for the "man" part, all that "two enter, one leaves" stuff, this being a fight to the death, and it having absolutely anything to do with Mel Gibson's Mad Max franchise beyond the obvious Tina Turner hook, that's the premise behind today's historic challenge! Competing for the title "Best Female Pop-R&B Artist Deserving Your Limited CD Dollars" come two fierce competitors, both with new projects worthy of your consideration. In this corner...weighing-in at almost fifty years of rocked-up soulfulness is Anna Mae Bullock, aka Tina Turner, who (insert "arguably" if you must) might have been queen of the genre had Aretha Franklin never been born. She's amassed seventeen solo pop hits, twenty as a duo with her ex-husband, the late Ike Turner, and is an international superstar beyond Thunderdome and compare. And in this corner...with twenty-seven years of funky r&b under her belt is upstart Domenica "Nikka" Costa, funky diva-daughter of the late arranger, Don Costa and goddaughter of Frank Sinatra. Nikka had the huge non-radio hit, "Like A Feather," featured in a Tommy Hilfiger ad campaign, and is also an international star, especially in Australia and her birthplace, Tokyo, Japan. Round One Alright, let's kick the elephant in the room out right now. Is Tina Turner going to be allowed to record another studio album or are we going to need a court order? It's been almost ten years since Twenty Four ...
