- Toyota caught asleep at wheel
It is hard to exaggerate the damage that Toyota has done to its hard-won reputation for quality and reliability with the massive recall of its cars because of problems with the accelerator pedal. As many as 10 million vehicles may be recalled in the US, Europe and China, and production and sales of eight popular models has been suspended for a week, with all the attendant bad publicity and anger among car owners.
これは、被害がトヨタは、ハード、アクセルペダルの問題のため、その車の大規模なリコールと品質と信頼性で高い評価を獲得するために行わている誇張するのは難しいです

- We can do business with Benedict | Catherine Pepinster
The Pope was invited on a state visit because the Labour government discovered that the Holy See is a major agent of developmentBit by bit, week by week, the focus of attacks on the forthcoming papal visit to Britain have sharpened so that now they boil down to one thing: why should this be a state visit? The vitriol first expressed by critics of Roman Catholicism was so vicious that one sensed that it backfired: people in this country who always like fair play started to feel that the condemnation of the most fervent opponents of Pope Benedict XVI and of his Church were getting too personal. So there's been a noticeable change in gear: now the critique is you Catholics should be able to see your pope, but don't bother the rest of it with us. And it's worked: a poll for the Theos think tank this week shows that people don't approve of this being a state visit, with 76 per cent objecting to taxpayers part-funding it, while a survey for my own publication, The Tablet, by Ipsos MORI, shows that most people neither support nor oppose the actual visit. So it's the trip's status that sticks in the craw.But people need to get a few things straight. Firstly, this isn't quite a state visit. This is an official visit, with the status of a state visit. So the pope won't be the guest of honour at a vast banquet at Buckingham Palace, nor will there be a ride down the Mall with the Queen with all the attendant pomp, nor will the pope stay at Buckingham Palace and be waited on there by flunkeys. That wasn't desired by the pope, nor was it entirely possible , given the Queen is currently resident at Balmoral for her annual holiday there, and the absence of these events will make the visit vastly cheaper for the taxpayer.Secondly, the protests about the papal state visit are much noisie 労働党政権は、ローマ法王庁は週ビット、週developmentBitの主要なエージェントであることを発見したので、教皇は国賓訪問に招待され、英国に迫ったローマ法王の訪問への攻撃の焦点はその削ったていることを、今で煮詰めると一つのこと：なぜこれが国賓訪問すべきか？最初のローマカトリックの批判で表される硫酸塩は、1つは、それが裏目に出たことを察知していたので、悪質されました：常にフェアプレーは、ローマ法王ベネディクト16世と彼の教会の最も熱心な反対者の非難にもなっていたことを感じ始めたように、この国の人々個人
