Japan's Olympic organizers lied about its weather, and now athletes are paying the price
Japan's Olympic organizers lied about its weather, and now athletes are paying the price TOKYO — The finish line of the men’s triathlon Monday morning looked something like a battlefield scene, bodies sprawled out on ground, trainers coming to the aid of overheated athletes, even a few being helped off with their arms draped over shoulders. This despite the Olympics moving the start time to 6:30 a
Perspective | Japan should cut its losses and tell the IOC to take its Olympic pillage somewhere else
Somewhere along the line Baron Von Ripper-off and the other gold-plated pretenders at the International Olympic Committee decided to treat Japan as their footstool. But Japan didn’t surrender its sovereignty when it agreed to host the Olympics. If the Tokyo Summer Games have become a threat to the national interest, Japan’s leaders should tell the IOC to go find another duchy to plunder. A cancell

It's 7-11 almost 24/7 when it comes to Olympic fine dining | CBC Sports
When I arrived at the Olympics here in Tokyo I knew it was going to be a challenge to find food. I packed two huge boxes of protein bars hoping they would get me through the first two weeks of the most strict protocols — including not being able to leave our hotel accommodation. Prior to leaving I learned our hotel in Tokyo had an attached 7-Eleven. Now, having never been to Japan before I was una
Japan’s Ex-Prime Minister Is Behind This Hateful Olympic Scandal
Sources involved in planning the Games told The Daily Beast that an Olympic ceremony fiasco was basically Shinzo Abe’s favor to his homophobic, ultranationalist pal and donor. TOKYO—When the Olympics opening ceremony was held on July 23, ex-Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, the man who had sealed Japan’s bid for the Games in the first place, was conspicuously absent—but he was there in spirit.

The mayor of softball athlete Miu Goto's hometown prompted outrage after chomping on her medal.
先日、実家に行った際に母親に、古い釣具があるけど処分していいかと聞かれました。 この釣具たちはその昔、父親が釣りをしていた頃に買ったものらしい…おそらく30～40年前くらいのものと思います。 その中からとりあえず、渋い色合いの両軸リールだけもらって帰りました。 テトラポットの穴釣りに使えるかなーと思ったので。 ただもらって帰ったものの、ハンドルは回らないし、メッキ部分のくすみもある状態。 果たして使えるようになるのか？ そんなプチレストアの記録です。 外観を観察 エンジ色の樹脂ボディにシルバーメッキ。 ハンドルは白だったのかも知れないけど、古びたクリーム色の樹脂製。 そして、なぜか2カ所ネジがないという…ｗ まぁ、これはサイズの合うネジがあればどうにでもなる。 製品名と思われるその刻印は「MIDGET 150 Olympic Japan」って書いてあります。 オリムピックのミゼット150と
