Zara adapts
Zara expanding online but still leverages retail where better able to get customer sentiment. Even Amazon testing how to utilize retail. Expect retail to continue decline overall but will also get better to offer more than online. Of course otherwise no point. Panasonic in Ginza offers beauty salon services along with gadgets which can easily buy online to so no need to carry home but retail helps the touch and try experience. https://www.google.co.jp/amp/w...

Re:Prohibited
LOL, you don't think the military has figured out this frequency hopping problem yet and Homeland Security/FBI et.al. hasn't purchased the necessary hardware?
Me thinks you are bit naïve...
I'm almost finished my Masters thesis on frequency-hopping software-defined radios, so I'm pretty sure neither naivete nor ignorance is a factor. Until recently, the hardware systems involved with frequency memory and principal component analysis, especially over a high bandwidth, were neither cheap nor widespread. This is partly because there aren't too many opponents outside of national militaries who are using FHSS comm systems. The first thing the Feds have to do is realize you are using FHSS in the first place. Then allocate some of those expensive EW assets to monitor or jam your comms.
Like most forms of security, you don't expect to be invulnerable, but to force your opponent to expend a disproportionate amount of resources to compromise your operations.

Re:But wait a minute
ICs weren't invented for the space industry, but it is from the space and military industries that the transistor and IC manufacturers received a lot of their initial funding. For both the space and military industries the high costs of transistors and ICs was justified by their space, weight and energy-use savings along with their heat resistance. For business and consumers the benefits didn't justify the costs.
If is wasn't for the space and military industries the development of transistors and ICs would probably have been slower.

kind of off-the-wall suggestion
Googled for "ratiation detectors for Japan". Found this interesting link, among other things.
I was going to echo the general attitude that the fears are probably misguided, but somewhere in the Church literature (I'm "Mormon") I was reading several months back, I noted that we had sent a bunch of radiation detectors to the Touhoku area.
So they apparently are either taking the risk seriously, or they are wanting to provide our members with a way to check and avoid unnecessary worries.
But you might check with your nearest church or community group with which you have some sort of affiliation. Or, in fact, do not assume that the "government" would not send somebody by to check your gutter. Go ahead and check with your nearest yakusho (cho-yakusho -- town/subdivision -- or ku-yakusho -- ward, not the LDS kind, but the division of the large city kind). If your wife is Japanese, she should be able to find out pretty easily, if you can convince her that it's okay to ask. If not, look up the phone number of the place you go to get your gaijin registration taken care of.

Re:Not only the carriers, also the NGO'sI've already told this to many friends, but maybe it's worth repeating here.
Please, if you plan to donate to American Red Cross to help Japanese, donate instead to Japanese Red Cross.
You can donate directly to Japanese Red Cross using Google Checkout.
http://www.google.co.jp/intl/en/crisisresponse/japanquake2011.htmlEven if your credit card company charges you some chunk as this is a Yen transaction (though I don't know if this is actually the case), I still believe that it's much better option than sending money to American RC.
Unlike American RC, I actually trust Japanese RC for doing useful things in Japan with smaller overhead costs. I don't have any data to back "smaller overhead costs" part, but I don't remember hearing about some major scandal, and for "doing useful things" part, just look at this report from Japanese RC on 23/Mar:
http://www.jrc.or.jp/english/relief/l4/Vcms4_00002105.html
If you read Japanese, just read this list of donation/fundraising effort. Follow each of the link and you'll find that majority of these efforts are sending money to Japanese RC:

know nothing about film photography?
First, you have to develop the film to get any kind of image at all.
Well, okay, theoretically, you could scan the film, but not with any ordinary scanner. The light from the scanner, you see, would wash the image right out.
You have to develop film to bring the image out into a form that is visible to the unaided/untrained eye. Developing also stabilizes the image so that further exposure to light doesn't wash it out.
Places to educate yourself even further (regards negative and positive process film, etc.):
Oh, and search Google for kodachrome and, more interesting, perhaps, kodachrome negative. (Why interesting? It brought up, among other things, this.

"Case in point is all the dark horse instigators the left places at right-wing events with the sole intention of causing an "incident" that might reflect badly on the organizers."
I think you need a citation for that. I did a quick Googleing of your claim and came back with nothing. Even after trying to reword it in different ways in an attempt to get better results. So, I tried reversing it, and glaringly, the opposite understanding of what you're claiming seems to be the actual case.

Cities reflect websites
Asian websites seem to reflect pictures of downtown areas of major asian cities - Tokyo, Hong Kong, parts of Beijing, Vietnam, etc. Shockingly, their major cities don't look terribly different from western megalopolises like NYC and London. Their colorful ads just happen to have asian character sets, which have a lot more lines and end up looking more busy to the western eye. Have you looked at yahoo.com/ or amazon.com lately? I mean, Yahoo has cleaned up their image some, but it's still very cluttered and messy. I can only imagine what Google News.jp or
.cn looks like, or heaven forbid, the japanese translated version of Wunderground.com?? Just add some purple and yellow rounded corner rectangles in the background and it looks like every other stereotypical asian website out there.
Anyways, my point is, websites are driven by advertising. Websites of local languages are going to look similar to the Times Squares and Piccadilly Circuses of the world, in their local languages and alphabets. Certain color combinations might make certain alphabets stand out better. Helveltica (and all the child fonts it's spawned over the years) happens to look really good in Red, White or Blue on a White or dark colored background, which is probably why western advertising all looks the same for the most part. People tend to use more asian color schemes for party invitiations when using Comic Sans, and that font everyone loves to hate, Papyrus, tends to look best Black on white on tan. -

Japanese proverb
I tried to find the original Japanese for this supposed proverb and found this, which Slashdot is apparently incapable of displaying correctly (even converting to HTML entities didn't work; see here and search for "Japanese proverb"):
è¦åSã--ã¦åfæ--¥çå¦ã(TM)ãããSããããå...ç"Yãã®äæ--¥ã®æ-ãOEä¾åãOEããã
The meaning is correct, but a Google search for that phrase brings up exactly two hits. A search for the English version of the proverb gives over 61,000 hits.
This sounds like a fake proverb to me. An English speaker probably made it up, thought it sounded good, and attributed it to Japanese because it fit his or her stereotype of "Asian wisdom."

Re:Consumers go to work and brag
PCs are cheaper than Macs. It's a fact. I don't know what the fuss is about. Why not search yourself.
As for business and productivity, to keep things simple I will just say that MS Office is the standard, and it runs better on Windows because that is its native platform. Productivity from a usability standpoint is debatable, but the benefits from standardization I would argue are not. And there are many benefits. Note, I am not saying PCs are better in every industry (like graphics, although one could argue for PCs in that area too with all the major software suites being ported to the PC with great commercial success), I am just saying for Office work.
As for schools, I stand by my Linux statement. Schools pay a premium to buy computers with all the extra bells and whistles when they really can't afford them. Linux is not only cost effective, but they make amazing educational tools. I am not talking about running proprietary CD Roms with "classes" on them. I am talking about teaching kids how to program, how to assemble their own computers, and how to manage software. Schools are where people learn, and learning curves are there to be overcome, not to be avoided, let alone avoided by paying for something more expensive. Most kids probably have PCs or Macs at home anyway, so to have raw Linux at school would be nothing but educational.
As for your other statements I have no idea where you are coming from or where you are going, so I'll be on my way.
You are rude. -

Re:Not everyone is a Linux kernel developer
For one thing I was at Perforce User's Conference last May.
I'm not a version management buff, but I can definitely tell why Perforce is so expensive (compared to free alternatives) yet so widely used.
I work for a game company and it seems that most other game companies (with a decent budget) prefer Perforce.
EA also had a lecture at that conference..I'm not in the business of explaining why one would choose a version control system over another (surely not in a dying topic on Slashdot 8). I just wanted to make it clear that Linus Torvalds speaks for itself and while he makes many good points, also doesn't consider the world of development in a broader sense.

I can connect to Google France, Google Japan, Google Germany and so forth. I used to be able to connect to Google China - you can even see it in google.com's search for Google China and the cache for it. But nowadays, it just redirects to Google.com. They don't want Westerners able to see what people can and can't search for in China.

Re:Language
I'd assume, without knowing, that that's a Firefox thing. Presumably you're referring to using the little Google search box in the upper right hand corner of the browser, and presumably you've already gone to the Google preferences page (actually, for the Japanese Google, I suppose that'd be the preferences on google.co.jp), and changed your language preferences there after making sure you accept cookies from google.co.jp (or google.com, depending).
Firefox appends a locale string to every Google search they create, it flags the search as coming from a specific version of Firefox. Specifically, on my searches, it'll add "&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official" to the search URL. Now, I haven't bothered checking if Google actually pays attention to this part of the URL for locale (I'd really hope it doesn't), but if it does, you can remove that part of the query string from the Google search plugin.
Simply (sarcasm, natch) find your Firefox install, and open searchplugins\google.xml, and remove or comment out the <Param name="rls"> element.
Alternatively, if you mean the Google Toolbar, try... um...
Actually, I'm not sure how to contact Google. I suppose I should try a web search for that.
Hope this helps, although somehow, after previewing it, I doubt it will.

That explanation doesn't fly
That explanation is a load of malarky. Try searching for Tianamen Square (note poor spelling): you find the picture. Try searching on proper spelling: whoops, no picture. Try searching for "six four" in Chinese, which (I'm told) is as unambiguous if you're Chinese as the spoken words "nine eleven" are to an American, and you'll get... actually, I'm not sure what you'll get, because after about ten minutes of searching politically sensitive terms on Google China I now get my connection reset every time I try to connect to them. Cute, guys. OK, we'll try an anonymous proxy, here we go, that works.
Yep, as I expected, *no image search results whatsoever*. Sounds strange, given that "64" should be showing up in all sorts of documents, right? After all, its a freaking number. Search for a random two digit number and you'd expect to get scads of documents, right? 63 gets hundreds of results. 65 gets hundreds of results. 64 gets consigned to the memory hole. Don't believe me? http://images.google.cn/images?svnum=10&hl=zh-CN&l r=&nojs=1&q=%E5%85%AD%E5%9B%9B to do it on Google China and http://images.google.co.jp/images?svnum=10&hl=ja&l r=&q=%E5%85%AD%E5%9B%9B to do the exact same search on Google Japan . (You'll note the image results you see are from Chinese-language sources. Japanese people don't refer to the event as 6-4 any more than they refer to 9-11 as 9-11: off the top of my head, 9-11 is the "American simultaneous terror attacks" or /bei doujihatsu tero kougeki/, don't know what they call the Tiananmen Square incident. Probably "Tiananmen Square incident".)

The reason I ask is that googling for "Aichi-banpaku denshi-peepaa" (in Japanese, obviously) brings up the press release I assume you're referring to as the very first result.

Almost Right.
If you focus less on the orginal spelling and more on the sound, you'll arrive at either BORUMAA or BARUMAA. As "ball" is "BORU", the first is more likely. Long trailing "ah" is typical of "ar" endings.
For what it's worth, the small-TSU RU combination is very infrequent. The only example I found was "GORRU" as in crying out "Goal!" in football/soccer. At any rate, it's unnecessary since the two L's do not extend the sound so much as the phonetic change from L to M. You'll get that pause automatically by using "ru".
Finally, the Japanese have no qualms about changing the cadence of a foreign word. Compare "McDonald" to MAKUDONARUDO.
