Sea Mammals Possessing large brains and complex behavioral patterns, cetaceans are believed to be highly intelligent. Their brains, which are the largest
in the Animal Kingdom and have enormous gyrification compared with
terrestrial mammals, have long been of scientific interest. Few studies,
however, report total number of brain cells in cetaceans, and even
fewer have used unbiased counting methods. In this study, using
stereological methods, we estimated the total number of cells in the
neocortex of the long-finned pilot whale (Globicephala melas)
brain. For the first time, we show that a species of dolphin has more
neocortical neurons than any mammal studied to date including humans.
These cell numbers are compared across various mammals with different
brain sizes, and the function of possessing many neurons is discussed.
We found that the long-finned pilot whale neocortex has approximately
37.2 × 109 neurons, which is almost twice as many as humans, and 127 × 109 glial cells. Thus, the absolute number of neurons in the human neocortex is not
correlated with the superior cognitive abilities of humans (at least
compared to cetaceans) as has previously been hypothesized. However, as
neuron density in long-finned pilot whales is lower than that in humans,
their higher cell number appears to be due to their larger brain.
Accordingly, our findings make an important contribution to the ongoing
debate over quantitative relationships in the mammalian brain. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4244864/

>Our results underscore that correlations between cognitive performance and absolute neocortical neuron numbers across animal orders or classes are of limited value, and attempts to quantify the mental capacity of a dolphin for cross-species comparisons are bound to be controversial.

Dan Drexler So IF IF IF Taiji closed the hunts tomorrow can anyone tell me what would happento a group of Dolphins that swim by Japan?
1 ·
Jo Stoyel They would live
2 ·
Dan Drexler How do you figure that?
Phil Vokey They're only aware of what the Cove Gawkers show, DD. They don't want to accept the FACT that dolphins are killed for food elsewhere in Japan and other countries of the world.
4 ·
Yamamoto San @Jo Stoyel - they would still be hunted and eaten by orcas. Orcas probably kill more dolphins than human do
5 ·
Yamada Gaku Lol so Orcas should arrest by some country's police officer, aren't they?
2 ·
Phil Vokey How about the dolphins and whales, PO, that are slaughtered in Alaska, USA ? Or the seals and walruses? Do they not bleed and feel pain, too? Or the whales that are slaughtered in 10 other countries of the world ? I guess you just want to talk about Taiji and other places in Japan, do you ? Doesn't that sound hypocritical to you ?
4 ·
Bert Stankowski Phil, the best example of brains sickness by whale- and dolphin meat is yourself. Your brain is mess and scum! Did you try to much dolphin meat?
Phil Vokey LOL! I have never eaten dolphin meat and from the taste descriptions that I've heard, I have no desire to even try it. Whale meat, however, I have always enjoyed. Minke meat tastes a lot like elk meat. That was 40 years ago. Since then, the only whale that I've enjoyed was some Alaskan bowhead whale meat.
1 ·
Phil Vokey Btw, idiot, it's spelled 'too' if you mean an excessive amount. That's not a very big word. It's not TOO easy TO louse that one up, unless you have 'brains sickness', TOO! (lol) Is 'brains sickness' some illness than you just invented?
Cristian Rival Quit whaling and killing dolphins!!!

Stephen Barnett CR - All previous Olympics had anti-groups like you, but the countries and its people didn't care a bit. South Korea still butcher dogs. In either case, if Japan cared about the world reputation, she would have stopped the dolphin hunt long before.
The only way for a positive change is to increase Japanese activists without such negative propaganda and ugly hatred. you will never understand.
People will also notice Cove Guardians' evil behavior in Taiji and their false reports based on misperceptions and biases.
This site ''11 Facts about dolphin hunt'' is full of fabrications. As I thought, source come from Sea Shepherd Cove Guardians Hippies.

Phil Vokey I've already explained to you, Cock Roach, on 2 other threads that chemo thing was a year ago. Thanks to the great medical people here in Canada, chemo is finished and I am healthy again. I'm sure it disappoints you but I am going to be around for a long time yet, so you may as well get used to being proven an idiot....over and over again. In the future when you hear crap like that from one of your freaky friends, you really should check it out instead of just repeating it and making yourself look dumber than them.

Phil Vokey I'm in great condition, Cock Roach. I 've been eating a bit too much during the holidays but that's not really harmful. It's just part of the celebrations. Hell is waiting for you, too. Your vile attitude will guarantee you a place there.
Phil Vokey If your question was about my health, Cock Roach, I have news that will, no doubt, disappoint you. I had a health problem about a year ago but here in Canada we have some of the finest medical facilities and best medical people in the world and they took care of that problem. I'm sure you'll also be disappointed to know that a lot of those great medical people were of Asian descent. Two of them were of Japanese descent. I'll be glad to share more details with you if your metal/emotional 'condition' can handle it.

José Eduardo do you say killing and kidnapping in "this modern age" is a work? and you call it "tradition"? please! read yourself!!
2 ·
Yamamoto San Any different to other countries keeping other animals captive? the horse racing industry, greyhounds, bull rodeo, zoos, pet industry, the list goes on.... human has been utilising and keeping animals captive for thousands of years, you think that will ever change? As human learn more & more about animals, animals are going to be utilised even more, to do the jobs human do not want to do.
3 ·
José Eduardo you are wrong Yamamoto, animals are less used to do the jobs humans do. Have you ever read about evolution?
1 ·
Emmanuel Chanel José Eduardo: Don't you know medical examinations with animals?
And you don't know that sera of tetanus is made by killing and torturing horses?
1 ·
José Eduardo and that´s why Japanese people kill, kidnap and sell dolphins and then say: tradition? we are talking about millions of dollars you get doing this. A lot of money is the real reason for your "tradition" or can you say me you don't know about it?
Emmanuel Chanel The point that dolphin fishery is an industry is not contradiction with the fact that the point that it's a tradition. Millions of dollars? Out of the question for the contradiction.
It's your illusion that tradition shouldn't be evolved for industrial sakes. First of all, you want to force us stop dolphin fishery, huh?
2 ·
José Eduardo force? no, you should know dolphins are smarter than you think, dolphins must have something special due to Japanese people not only eat them but also sell them alive for spectacles
2 ·
Emmanuel Chanel >no, you should know dolphins are smarter than you think
No, you should know what you say is stupid. First of all, dolphins don't belong even to one family of species. It's worse than mixing lions with cats since lions and cats belong to cat family. It's very basic biology. In Japan, people can understand easily without even bachelor's degree of biology. Don't you know that?

Phil Vokey I'm not sick at all. I just don't let ARA freaks do my thinking for me. Right or wrong, like it or not, most of the human race eats meat and not all of us can buy it at the neighbourhood grocery store. The fishermen in Taiji harvest a sustainable natural resource....dolphin meat. It is their choice and their right. Get over it.

Phil Vokey @...JH.... I'm not sick. I don't like the idea of any creature dying but that's where meat comes from. I just like to poke the radical ARAs because they go beserk over next to nothing and the fact is...a good dose of reality drives them over the edge.

Phil Vokey LOL! That's all done long ago and it worked great! I explained that to you on a different thread already! Like it or not, Cock Roach, I'm healthy and I'm going to be around for a long time yet, so you may as well get used to being proven an idiot..... again and again.
2 ·
Phil Vokey As far as me working for the Japanese government goes, that's just another of your idiotic notions, Cock Roach. I am Canadian. That's the only citizenship I have. I have a lot of Japanese contacts and friends but that is mainly because of my business. I make my living in the steel industry and seamless steel piping is my specialty. Due to complications with imports, customs and 'distribution rights', I do most of my business through intermediate suppliers instead of direct business with Japanese manufacturers and/or suppliers. I try to limit my inventory to the best products which, in my business, happens to be made in Japan.

South Korea's Invasion of Japan
South Korea has been occupying Takeshima with no basis in international law. Any measures the Republic of Korea takes regarding Takeshima based on such an illegal occupation have no legal justification.
Japan will continue to seek the settlement of the dispute of the territorial sovereignty over Takeshima on the basis of international law in a calm and peaceful manner.
Note: The Republic of Korea has never demonstrated any clear basis for its claims that it had effective control over Takeshima prior to Japan’s effective control over Takeshima and reaffirmation of its territorial sovereignty in 1905.

Yamamoto San Phil, most ARA and dolphin fanatics have a lot of theories, assumptions, unfortunately almost all their "facts" are always wrong
1 ·
Peter Boyd If you don't shut down Taiji, and more children end up dead or deformed because of the mercury in the dolphins and whales, then just imagine the massive class-action lawsuits, both locally and internationally. Do you really want this kind of attention to fall upon your country because of a small and dead fishing village? I have been to beautiful, Japan and I know hardly anyone is aware of these daily tragedies in Taiji. I think this time, it is about save face with the world. Please remember, "Two Taiji councilmen have broken the “code of silence” and have stood up against children eating toxic dolphin meat." Thank you, Prime Minister.
2 ·
Yamamoto San LOL.. peddling your lies and scaremongering? show me one single verified case of anyone got sick eating dolphins or whales.
I think your "mercury toxic" crap is getting rather stale & boring
2 ·
Bert Stankowski Yamamoto, the best example of brains sickness by whale- and dolphin meat is yourself. Your brain is mess and scum!
Phil Vokey You're as dumb as Cock Roach, BS. You said I was the best example. Just to help you out a little, let me explain something to you.... There can only be one best.
1 ·
Peter Boyd Feel free to educate yourself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minamata_disease
1 ·
Yamamoto San One hint for you, the Minamata people that got sick didnt even eat dolphin or whale.
They got sick from eating common fish, shell fish, due to concentrated pollution into a small bay area, that sort of concentration is never found in the wider ocean.
Peter Boyd Truth will surface, as it always does, Mr. San.
Peter Boyd There is no need to be in denial, which seems to be a national psychological trait. Stand up, be honest like a good human and take care of this weakness Japan has. It's very simple. Drop your egos and power struggles. We all have to at some point in life.
1 ·
Yamamoto San That's right Peter, please stand up and admit your lies and scaremongering about the mercury issue.
2 ·
Peter Boyd Let us bring in an international team of scientists to measure mercury levels. What are you afraid of?
Peter Boyd The four big pollution diseases of Japan (四大公害病 yondai kōgai-byō?) were a group of man-made diseases all caused by environmental pollution due to improper handling of industrial wastes by Japanese corporations.[1] Although the first occurred in 1912, the other three occurred in the 1950s and 1960s.
Name of disease Japanese prefecture affected Cause Source Year Itai-itai disease Toyama Prefecture Cadmium poisoning Mitsui Mining & Smelting Company 1912 Minamata disease Kumamoto Prefecture Methylmercury Chisso Corporation 1956 Niigata Minamata Disease Niigata Prefecture Methylmercury Showa Denko 1965 Yokkaichi Asthma Mie Prefecture Sulfur dioxide Air pollution within Yokkaichi 1961
1 ·
Peter Boyd Just to be clear, Japan is not the only country with wildlife extinction issues. This is a worldwide task. Every country has their dirty little secrets. I know that. We need to see ourselves as a whole world here, to save ourselves from our selves. Do you understand Mr. San?
1 ·
Yamamoto San What makes you think dolphins or the whale species Japan is hunting are going extinct? Do you know what is the quota percentage vs the reproduction rate of the dolphin/whale species?
Peter Boyd The WWF research from one month ago revealed that we have lost nearly 50% of our wildlife in the past forty years. Let me be very clear, it is NOT a Japanese problem, but a worldwide disaster and we ALL need to be smart now about OUR world as a whole.
3 ·
Yamamoto San I will support you & I'm against hunting endangered animals, killing a whole animal for just some specific parts like shark fin, rhino horns, ivory, I'm also against sport hunting or killing for fun. But I advocate sustainable hunting for food.
4 ·
Emmanuel Chanel Yamamoto San:
Probably, Peter Boyd don't know even the word: RMP. It's not about dolphins. But he wouldn't know anything about the quotas, the reproductions, or the populations.
Beejay Cody ^What about the captive trade in Taiji Yamamoto San? Do you agree with that?
Peter Boyd Absolutely! Sustainability is a must for us all. You are a true gentleman, Mr San. I am grateful to you, thank you. We need good sensible dialogue like this to save our world.
Peter Boyd I would hope that what I offer in words here, brings the "whole" of us together. When we are so divided, emotions rise and nothing happens. Come to the table with solutions and realistic offerings. Just my thoughts.
Emmanuel Chanel Huh...
>Come to the table with solutions and realistic offerings.
We cause the commercial whaling since it has sustainability. So you should tell such a word not to us but to you, anti-whaling lunatics!
Peter Boyd Like I said EC, When we are so divided, emotions rise and nothing happens. You have a lot of anger looping in you.
Peter Boyd Anger produces a very small and narrow view. Keep stepping back until you can see the bigger picture, Mr Chanel.
1 ·
Emmanuel Chanel Peter Boyd:
Huh? You are a terrorist or its supporter. Do you think that we need to have "good sensible dialogue" with you, huh? Especially in the case that you commit a lie that Taiji people have Minamata Disease.
Peter Boyd Again, anger produces a very small and narrow view.
· Edited
Peter Boyd In 1970, the Japanese Water Pollution Control Act, which states that all factories are required by law to regulate disposal of dangerous chemicals, was enacted. In 1977, the Japanese government took on the task of cleaning Minamata Bay by vacuuming out 1.5 million cubic metres of methylmercury sludge from the bottom of the bay. Then in 1997, after fourteen years and $359 million, the Governor of Kumamoto prefecture deemed Minamata Bay safe. This really did take place, Mr. Chanel.
· Edited
Emmanuel Chanel Huh? Who denied Minamata Disease in Kumamoto and Niigata, idiot! In your DELUSION, I did, though. Taiji are quite far from Minamata. Don't you know that? Idilot! And you cannot read my comment below, huh? Oh... you revised the comment history in your mind, huh?
Peter Boyd I think we owe it to the world, to have an independent international examination team measure mercury levels in the Taiji Dolphins and Whales. But, Taiji has blocked this access. Why would that be, do you think?
Emmanuel Chanel I paste it:
-----------
LoL! If we got Minamata Disease simply by eating whales and dolphins, all the people of the world's coasts would have. And there wouldn't be even the word: Minamata Disease. Can't you understand that, Peter Boyd?
Especially, you read Wikipedia but you don't understand.

Huh... before preaching us, you should know that Taiji people don't have Minamata Disease. If they had, it's impossible for us to miss it BECAUSE even poor people learn Minamata Disease in primary schools and middle schools. (So such a symptom would be found in 100% possibility.)
And our medical researchers confirm that there's no Minamata Disease in Taiji.

Peter Boyd You are so angry, Mr Chanel.
Emmanuel Chanel Peter Boyd:
Huh? Nobody is blocked to access Taiji. You deny even that Covies are there, huh? We, people including foreigners are free to access Taiji. Just our officials block some of you since you are scums called "environmental conservationists". Oh, there's a special term: eco-terrorists.
Peter Boyd There has never been an independent examination of Dolphin and Whale mercury levels in Taiji. If they did allow it, where are the results?
Peter Boyd Let's do the testing.
Emmanuel Chanel Peter Boyd: Huh? So your parents don't teach you not to lie? You lied that Taiji people have Minamata Disease. It's natural that we hate the liers especially insulting us. Can't you understand that?
Peter Boyd Let's test the mercury levels in Taiji, and then come back and talk.
Peter Boyd What's to hide?
Yamamoto San Need to commission an independent tester, not some one from anti-whaling groups.
Below is some document on Japan warning to its citizen regarding mercury:
http://www.mhlw.go.jp/houdou/2003/01/h0116-4.html
Peter Boyd Forgive me, but I do not read Japanese. Would you share what it says?
Cristian Rival Not only anti whaling but also anti poaching and polluting OUR Planet Ocean!!!
Peter Boyd Wow, yeah. I can see why they are so defensive.
Emmanuel Chanel Peter Boyd:
If you really want to know, why don't you try the web translator? It's MHLW's 2003 release showing density of PCB, total mercury(総水銀), and methylmercury(メチル水銀) in cetacean meals. If not especially about Taiji, it's clear that nobody hides.
In addition, especially you can see the item: ハンドウイルカ(紀州沖)
And it means the item of Bottlenose Dolphins in offshore of Wakayama Prefecture, including Taiji.
If you want to say that our government hides something, learn how to read Japanese first! The most of people including English teachers and scientists don't work in English.
* MHLW = Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare
So our government has already tested long time before. And you revised our history! So you are unforgiven.

Peter Boyd I remember them trying to hide the facts about their Fukushima nuclear disaster too. "Stuart H. Smith, Esq., Mar. 3, 2014: Transcribed conversations released through the Freedom of Information Act [show] that even 100 miles from the site of the accident, radiation was 30 times higher than normal expected background levels. These findings suggest what many of us have been saying since Day One, which is that the initial accident at Fukushima was far worse than either the Japanese government or Tepco was willing to admit. Authorities in Japan must come clean about what really happened." I see a pattern here.

"breaking international law'' - NO. Like it or not, research whaling is 100% legal under international law. The US Court judged that Paul Watson and Sea Shepherd have broken the international law in the Southern Ocean.
"Please contact WAZA'' - They already know the dolphin hunt because hundreds of Japanese Animal Rights groups handed the petition to WAZA. But they still permit the captive trade in Taiji. Why don't you study more about this issue if you continue trolling here??

Peter Boyd Radiation hot spots are popping up around the United States in the thousands of percentages higher than ‘background radiation’, mutated wildlife is being found dead on the same West Coast beaches where increased radiation levels have been documented by independent researchers, and the Fukushima TEPCO plant workers have been caught using duct tape to fix their nuclear equipment. But according to the
Japanese government, these events mean absolutely nothing. Yeah. There's definitely a pattern of lies going on here.
Lisa Walker Radiation hot spots are popping up around the United States BECAUSE radioactive leaks were found at 75% of US Nuclear plants!

Peter Boyd The costly fallout of tatemae and Japan’s culture of deceit
by Debito Arudou
Nov 1, 2011 Article history
PRINT
SHARE
There is an axiom in Japanese: uso mo hōben —
“lying is also a means to an end.” It sums up the general attitude in
Japan of tolerance of — even justification for — not telling the truth.
First — defining “telling the truth” as divulging the truth
(not a lie), the whole truth (full disclosure) and nothing but the truth
(uncompounded with lies) — consider how lies are deployed in everyday
personal interactions.
Let’s start with good old tatemae (charitably
translated as “pretense”). By basically saying something you think the
listener wants to hear, tatemae is, essentially, lying. That becomes
clearer when the term is contrasted with its antonym, honne, one’s “true feelings and intentions.”
Tatemae, however, goes beyond the “little white lie,” as it
is often justified less by the fact you have avoided hurting your
listener’s feelings, more by what you have gained from the
nondisclosure.
But what if you disclose your true feelings? That’s often seen negatively, as baka shōjiki
(“stupidly honest”): imprudent, naive, even immature. Skillful lying is
thus commendable — it’s what adults in society learn to do.
Now extrapolate. What becomes of a society that sees lying
as a justifiably institutionalized practice? Things break down. If
everyone is expected to lie, who or what can you trust?
Consider law enforcement. Japan’s lack of even the
expectation of full disclosure means, for example, there is little right
to know your accuser (e.g., in bullying cases). In criminal procedure,
the prosecution controls the flow of information to the judge (right
down to what evidence is admissible). And that’s before we get into how
secretive and deceptive police interrogations are infamous for being.
Consider jurisprudence. Witnesses are expected to lie to
such an extent that Japan’s perjury laws are weak and unenforceable.
Civil court disputes (try going through, for example, a divorce) often
devolve into one-upmanship lying matches, flippantly dismissed as
“he-said, she-said” (mizukake-ron). And judges, as seen in the
Valentine case (Zeit Gist, Aug. 14, 2007), will assume an eyewitness is
being untruthful simply based on his/her attributes — in this case
because the witness was foreign like the plaintiff.
Consider administrative procedure. Official documents and
public responses attach organizational affiliations but few actual names
for accountability. Those official pronouncements, as I’m sure many
readers know due to arbitrary Immigration decisions, often fall under
bureaucratic “discretion” (sairyō), with little if any right of
appeal. And if you need further convincing, just look at the loopholes
built into Japan’s Freedom of Information Act.
All this undermines trust of public authority. Again, if
bureaucrats (like everyone else) are not expected to fully disclose,
society gets a procuracy brazenly ducking responsibility wherever
possible through vague directives, masked intentions and obfuscation.
This is true to some degree of all bureaucracies, but the
problem in Japan is that this nondisclosure goes relatively unpunished.
Our media watchdogs, entrusted with upholding public accountability,
often get distracted or corrupted by editorial or press club conceits.
Or, giving reporters the benefit of the doubt, it’s hard to know which
lyin’ rat to pounce on first when there are so many. Or journalists
themselves engage in barely researched, unscientific or sensationalistic
reporting, undermining their trustworthiness as information sources.
Public trust, once lost, is hard to regain. In such a
climate, even if the government does tell the truth, people may still
disbelieve it. Take, for example, the Environment Ministry’s recent
strong-arming of regional waste management centers to process Tohoku
disaster ruins: Many doubt government claims that radioactive rubble
will not proliferate nationwide, fanning fears that the nuclear power
industry is trying to make itself less culpable for concentrated
radiation poisoning by irradiating everyone (see www.debito.org/?p=954!)!
Apologists would say (and they do) that lying is what
everyone in positions of power does worldwide, since power itself
corrupts. But there is the matter of degree, and in Japan there is scant
reward for telling the truth — and ineffective laws to protect
whistle-blowers. It took a brave foreign CEO at Olympus Corp. to come
out recently about corporate malfeasance; he was promptly sacked,
reportedly due to his incompatibility with “traditional Japanese
practices.” Yes, quite so.
This tradition of lying has a long history. The Japanese
Empire’s deception about its treatment of prisoners of war and
noncombatants under the Geneva Conventions (e.g., the Bataan Death
March, medical experiments under Unit 731), not to mention lying to its
own civilians about how they would be treated if captured by the Allies,
led to some of the most horrifying mass murder-suicides of Japanese,
dehumanizing reprisals by their enemies, and war without mercy in World
War II’s Pacific Theater.
Suppressing those historical records, thanks to cowardice
among Japan’s publishers, reinforced by a general lack of “obligation to
the truth,” has enabled a clique of revisionists to deny responsibility
for Japan’s past atrocities, alienating it from its neighbors in a
globalizing world.
Even today, in light of Fukushima, Japan’s development into a
modern and democratic society seems to have barely scratched the
surface of this culture of deceit. Government omerta and omission kept the nation ignorant about the most basic facts — including reactor meltdowns — for months!
Let me illustrate the effects of socially accepted lying
another way: What is considered the most untrustworthy of professions?
Politics, of course. Because politicians are seen as personalities who,
for their own survival, appeal to people by saying what they want to
hear, regardless of their own true feelings.
That is precisely what tatemae does to Japanese society. It
makes everyone into a politician, changing the truth to suit their
audience, garner support or deflect criticism and responsibility.
Again, uso mo hoben: As long as you accomplish your goals,
lying is a means to an end. The incentives in Japan are clear. Few will
tell the truth if they will be punished for doing so, moreover rarely
punished for not doing so.
No doubt a culturally relativistic observer would attempt to
justify this destructive dynamic by citing red herrings and excuses
(themselves tatemae) such as “conflict avoidance,” “maintaining group
harmony,” “saving face,” or whatever. Regardless, the awful truth is:
“We Japanese don’t lie. We just don’t tell the truth.”
This is not sustainable. Post-Fukushima Japan must realize
that public acceptance of lying got us into this radioactive mess in the
first place.
For radiation has no media cycle. It lingers and poisons the
land and food chain. Statistics may be obfuscated or suppressed as
usual. But radiation’s half-life is longer than the typical attention
span or sustainable degree of public outrage.
As the public — possibly worldwide — sickens over time, the truth will leak out.

В России за прошлый год 500 детей погибли от рук родителей. "Интерфакс"08 Июля 2014
Около полутора тысяч детей пострадали в прошлом году от преступных посягательств родственников, а 500 детей погибли от рук своих родителей или опекунов, сообщила руководитель управления процессуального контроля за расследованием особо важных дел в федеральных округах СК РФ Евгения Лунева.
"В прошлом году СКР расследовано более 17 тысяч уголовных дел о преступлениях в отношении несовершеннолетних. Из них 1,5 тысячи детей пострадали от преступных действий со стороны членов семьи. Около 500 детей погибли от рук своих родителей или опекунов. Примерно столько же стали жертвами сексуального насилия со стороны родственников", - заявила Лунева на заседании СПЧ во вторник.
По ее словам, систематическим избиениям и истязаниям подверглось около 300 детей. Она отметила, что "одной из основных причин семейного насилия является алкоголизм и наркомания родителей".
При этом, по данным СК РФ, большая часть преступлений в семье совершается в отношении детей сожителями матерей.

Emmanuel Chanel Peter Boyd: Although you aren't the first or the last person of the weird type of Dolphin Project, Sea Shepherd, or so on. But I captured the log on http://ftp.emmanuelc.dix.asia/.../posts_785629254842605
So however hard you run away from Lisa Walker and from Phil Vokey, your behavior is exposed forever! I wish that I could have refuted Fukushima Nuclear Plant 1 issue soon by myself, though.
If you preach us to face the truth, why do you block Lisa Walker and Phil Vokey?

Phil Vokey I hardly had anything to say. I think Lisa Walker scared the crap out of him when she proved he was bluffing. Nice work, Lisa. Nice screen caps, Emmanuel.

The West's failure to confront China over its increasingly vocal territorial ambitions is similar to the disastrous appeasement of Adolf Hitler in the late 1930s, the Philippine president has claimed.
In comments that are likely to receive a furious reception in Beijing, Benigno Aquino, the Philippine leader, told The New York Times he believed it was time for the West to tell China “enough is enough.”
The Philippines is one of several Asian countries - including Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam and Malaysia - that is locked into acrimonious territorial disputes with Beijing.
Manila disputes the sovereignty of a series of shoals, islands and waters in an area it calls the West Philippine Sea and Beijing calls the South China Sea.
Meanwhile, the long-running dispute between Japan and China over the Senkaku islands in the East China Sea exploded again last November after China declared a controversial "air defence identification zone" that included the skies over that area.

There are growing, unsubstantiated questions about whether the Japanese Imperial Army kidnapped 200,000 sex-slaves (Comfort Women) in World War II. Mostly from Korea.
A $30 million US Government Study specifically searched for evidence on Comfort Women allegations.
After nearly seven years with many dozens of staff pouring through US archives -- and 30 million dollars down the drain -- we found a grand total of nothing.
The final IWG report to Congress was issued in 2007.

Peter Boyd A lesson experienced is far more educational than a lesson taught. It has come to my attention that all who attacked me with “hate” responses yesterday are members of a group with revulsion on par with ISIS terrorists. Since your comments and hateful emotions are so strong, would you go as far as murdering people from Sea Shepherd and/or other organizations? Why are you blocking an international team of scientist from testing mercury levels of the Whales and Dolphins in Taiji? Did the Prime Minister hire criminals to play defense on this page? How many criminals firing off resistant attacks here have murdered before? Also, if you were in a room with an activist, would you behead them as easily as you behead Dolphins with your outboard engine propellers, as seen this year in numerous photos of Taiji? Interesting question, right.
The lawsuits are beginning; with many world leaders and millions of observers from around the world, watching and wondering why the PM of Japan is being so resistant about these barbaric practices, as he seems to be stuck in a time machine on the issue of murdering Dolphins and Whales.
We have reached a time where so many extinctions are just years away, so when the world looks at Taiji, we all just shake our heads. As with any pressure, release will come and I have a simple vision of how the slaughter will end in Taiji. Saying these wildlife murders are “tradition” is a tactic used for deceptive purposes, and the world sees right through it. It’s all about the money and the world knows it. You have the Olympics coming and in the time between, there will be hundreds of lawsuits against you and the publicity of your evil practices will be on the minds and in worldwide publications from everyone who cares about our world. Japan’s behavioral patterns are so predictable. Do you really want people bringing up your violent past over and over again leading up to the Olympics? Because that’s exactly what you are creating for yourselves.

Yamamoto San Let compare who is more similar to ISIS...
Sea Shepherd dressed in black, so does ISIS
Sea Shepherd carries black flags, so does ISIS
They are self-righteous and want to impose their beliefs, so does ISIS
They believe everybody else is wrong except them, so does ISIS
I'm just glad Sea Shepherd dont have guns, who knows what will happen if they acquire guns.

Yamamoto San "The lawsuits are beginning" - that's right, Sea Shepherd has court cases lined up, keeping their lawyers very happy. This is just the first of many... http://news.yahoo.com/protesters-contempt-court-anti..., Ady Gil has sue them too.
"if you were in a room with an activist, would you behead them" - of course not, they are human, killing human is illegal, dolphins are not human, seems like you are having trouble distinguishing the two.
"wildlife murders" - you can't murder food or animals, you slaughter them. Sustainable hunting is much better for the environment and lower carbon footprint than factory farming.
"there will be hundreds of lawsuits against" - haha, on what ground? they cause you emotional damage?
"people bringing up your violent past over and over" - you said it yourself, animal activists can't win arguments on the hunts, so they have to always bring other non-related issues in, and create scaremongering, lies and mis-information.
