More than 70 child welfare centers and orphanages have reported anonymous donations of backpacks for schoolchildren and other items since the Christmas season — all under the names of cartoon heroes. Among the names used by donors is "Naoto Date," a cartoon character and himself an orphan, who becomes "Tiger Mask" and supports other orphans in a 1960's cartoon series. (Kyodo News)

A Labrador retriever that finally passed the test to become a police dog last year after failing six times in a row officially made her debut Jan. 6. During a ceremony at a police academy in Takamatsu, Kagawa Prefecture, Kinako was given her assignment through March 2013. The 8-year-old dog — about 50 in human terms — will help the police with crime investigations and search-and-rescue missions. Kinako gained popularity for her persistence, despite continually failing due to mistakes. (Kyodo News)

Lionel Messi's mesmerizing performances for Barcelona outweighed a disappointing World Cup, ensuring the Argentina forward was named the world's best player of 2010. Messi won the FIFA award for a second straight year Jan. 10, finishing ahead of Barcelona teammates Andres Iniesta and Xavi Hernandez. "It's a very special day for me," Messi said through a translator on receiving the award at a gala ceremony in Zurich, FIFA's home city. (AP)

The Liverpool skipper, who turns 31 in May, admits he has been lifted by Kenny Dalglish's return as manager in the last fortnight.
But while he wants to carry on playing for as long as possible, he has not considered taking his coaching badges like team-mate Jamie Carragher.
He said: "It's not my main priority or focus at the moment, I still think that's a long way off.
"I believe I can play football for another four or five years but I do sometimes think about what I'm going to do when I finish playing.
"I would like to stay involved in some capacity, whether that's on the media side or in the dugout we'll have to wait and see.
"I will certainly try to get my coaching qualifications at some point."

U.S. President Barack Obama fullfilled a campaign promise and signed a landmark law repealing the ban on gay men and women serving openly in the armed services. The signing ceremony Dec. 22 was a breakthrough moment for gays in the United States, for the military and for Obama himself. The president vowed during his 2008 campaign to repeal the law and had faced pressure from liberals, a significant base within his Democratic party, who complained he was not acting swiftly enough.

Apocalyptic thought has a tradition that dates to the Persian prophet Zoroaster in the 14th century BC. Recently, anxiety has grown over the prediction of the end of the world in the Mayan calendar.
It's true that the Mayan odometer will hit zeros on 21 December 2012, as it reaches the end of a 394-year cycle called a baktun. But this baktun is part of a larger 8,000-year cycle called a pictun, and there's no evidence that anything astronomically untoward will happen as the current baktun slides into the next. However, that hasn't stopped the feverish speculating that sells books and cinema tickets.
What kind of catastrophe would it take to end the world? Astronomical intruders provide a potentially serious threat. Impacts can be caused by stray rubble from the Asteroid Belt and the rocky snowballs that travel in highly elliptical orbits in the comet cloud. There are many fewer large bits of debris than small bits, so the interval between large impacts is much longer than the interval between small impacts
2012年の12月21日がこの世の終わりとされる説が出てきている。その原因は周りの小惑星などからによる衝撃とされている。

Asda, which ran the survey, said a "sensible" blazer similar to Hermione's is "flying off the shelves".
A spokesman for the supermarket giant said: "Our customers love Hermione's style. We have had to order in more blazers."

A fish believed to be extinct for 70 years has been found in a lake in Yamanashi Prefecture by an eccentric TV personality who calls himself "Mr. Fish."
The "kunimasu" salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka kawamurae) was thought to have fallen victim to Japan's hydro-electric power development program in 1940.
It was only found in Lake Tazawako in Akita Prefecture and, when acidic water was drawn into the lake to drive the hydro-electric turbines, the kunimasu disappeared. It has been listed as extinct by the Environment Ministry.
The freshwater fish, which grows to about 30 centimeters, seems, however, to have found a hideaway in Lake Saiko in Yamanashi Prefecture, far to the south of its previous stronghold.
A group of Kyoto University researchers led by fisheries science professor Tetsuji Nakabo found that what local fishermen have been calling "kuromasu," or black salmon, was in fact kunimasu.
The group caught nine kuromasu between March and April. DNA analysis found that they were different from "himemasu," a landlocked form of sockeye salmon abundant in Lake Saiko.
Records show that 100,000 kunimasu eggs were sent from Tazawako to Saiko in 1935 to stock the Yamanashi lake. Nakabo believes Saiko's kuromasu are descendants of kunimasu released at that time.
"Saiko's water temperature is comparatively low, good for kunimasu's survival," Nakabo said.
The discovery is thanks to TV personality and illustrator Sakana-kun (Mr. Fish), known for his trademark fish-shaped hat.
A self-taught fish expert, he now serves as a visiting associate professor at the Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology.
In March, Sakana-kun showed Nakabo, a long-time collaborator and adviser, chilled fish identified by Saiko fishermen as himemasu. The fish had been sent to him to help him draw illustrations of kunimasu for Nakabo.
Only formaldehyde-preserved specimens of kunimasu were available to him, and he felt that recently caught specimens of other landlocked salmon would help his work.
When the fish arrived, however, he began to suspect he might actually be looking at kunimasu from beyond the grave.
Nakabo was flabbergasted. One was carrying eggs, a sure sign that it was not a himemasu because that fish lays its eggs in autumn. He shouted: "These are kunimasu!"

MVP
The Atletico Madrid striker scored five goals as Uruguay exceeded expectations to reach the semi-finals before losing the third-place play-off 3-2 to Germany.
Forlan also finished in a four-way tie with Thomas Muller, Wesley Sneijder and David Villa for the Golden Boot ・an award Muller took on a tie-break thanks to having more assists.
And the former Manchester United man admits he is stunned at the accolade of being named the tournament's best star.
He said: "It's as great as it is unexpected.
"I never even imagined something like this, nor did I have my sights set on it.
"As I'm a striker, I perhaps could have seen myself chasing the Golden Boot, and in fact I came close. That would have been more normal.
"I'm enjoying it and I'm delighted, but I'm very aware it's the result of the spectacular tournament the team has had. It's another reward for this positive period for Uruguayan football."
After learning of the win, Forlan's Uruguay team-mates charged into the striker's room to congratulate him before throwing him into the hotel swimming pool in celebration.
He added: "It was incredible how they all came to my room to congratulate me.
"The fact that my team-mates and a lot of people back home in Uruguay pinned their hopes on me, and I was able to repay that faith out on the pitch while being just another member of the team, makes me feel very happy.
"I'd also like to highlight those lads who didn't play much or didn't feature at all. Those guys make up the backbone of the squad and this award is for them too."

Champion
Spain were rightly crowned world champions for the first time to add to their European title of two years ago while the Dutch were guilty of crimes against football.
The Spanish bulls tried to play the game and it would have been a scandal had Holland nicked it by kicking Vicente Del Bosque's team off the park.
As it was, Andres Iniesta's winner four minutes from the end of extra time, which he rattled into the corner from a pass by sub Cesc Fabregas, sparked a fiesta.
Iniesta typifies Spain's approach. They want to pass the ball, run with it, love it and entertain.
Ironically it is what the Dutch "total football" sides of the 70s used to do but this one was a disgrace to their memory - this was more "total thuggery".
Holland collected nine yellow cards and a red for Everton's Johnny Heitinga while Spain, in the face of serious provocation, got five of their own.
That established a rather dubious World Cup record for English referee Howard Webb for the number of yellow cards dished out in a final - 14. The previous record was six in 1986.
Dutch players surrounded Webb at the end berating him for goodness knows what. They were lucky they only had one man sent off. It could have been three.
This final will not be remembered as a classic, nor indeed will the competition as a whole but you have to hand it to Spain.

感想 毎回優勝候補とされながらもことごとく負けてきたスペインが勝ったことは新しい歴史になった。今回も優勝候補の大本命と言われていたのですごいプレッシャーの中で試合をしていただろうがそのプレッシャーに勝ったことは素晴らしいと感じた。

BEST16
It was the first game in this World Cup that went all the way - but in the end the right team were left to cry tears of joy.
None more so than emotional Paraguay boss Gerardo Martino who wept in the arms of his assistants as his players went wild celebrating their historic achievement.
This was a game no neutral really fancied watching - and nothing that happened for 120 minutes did much to change that view. But for sheer drama and raw human emotion it was one of the most memorable games in these finals.
Lucas Barrios went close after 20 minutes but Japan keeper Eiji Kawashima denied him with a brave block.
Seconds later Daisuke Matsui struck the bar with a 30-yard piledriver while after 28 minutes Manchester City hitman Roque Santa Cruz missed from six yards.
Ten minutes later Keisuke Honda's left-footer from the edge of the box was just wide but that was it for the first half.
The match actually challenged England versus Algeria for the unwanted title of the worst game of the World Cup.
And it was about as exciting as the prospect of keeping Fabio Capello on as Three Lions boss for two more years. In a way it was understandable. Neither side had reached the quarter-finals before. They knew that they would scarcely, if ever, have a better chance to progress and caution prevailed.
Even so Paraguay were better and looked to go forward and threaten while Japan sat back throughout.
Despite dumping out world champions Italy in the group stage, Paraguay are the more pedestrian of the South American sides.
It was punishing, exacting and exhausting - and that was just for the spectators.
Five minutes into the second half Paraguay thought they had the breakthrough as Nestor Ortigoza burst into the box but Marcus Tanaka denied him with a last-ditch tackle.
Ortigoza slotted Edgar Benitez through but Yuji Nakazawa blocked. On the hour, Cristian Riveros caught a bullet header from Claudio Morel Rodriguez's cross but Kawashima gathered.
It came as no surprise when it went to extra time and even less so when it came to the Russian roulette of a shootout.
Japan's Kawashima had saved one against Frank Lampard in the friendly against England last month. He stopped another in the group stage when he denied Jon Dahl Tomasson in the 3-1 win over Denmark.
But he couldn't do anything as the Paraguayans took theirs like robots.
The first five kicks all went in as the tension mounted. Then Yuichi Komano slammed his onto the crossbar and over.
Nelson Valdez kept his head to smash it down the middle then Honda gave Japan hope by coolly beating Justo Villar.
要約 決勝トーナメントの一回戦で日本はパラグアイと対戦した。川島のビックセーブなどでパラグアイの攻撃を耐えた日本はPK戦にもちこみ、ランパードやトマソンのPKを止めていた川島に期待がかかったがPK戦で敗れた。
感想 日本の選手はとてもがんばっており、国民に夢を与えてくれたと思う。日本のサッカー界はこれからもっと盛り上がると感じた。
It was the first game in this World Cup that went all the way - but in the end the right team were left to cry tears of joy.
None more so than emotional Paraguay boss Gerardo Martino who wept in the arms of his assistants as his players went wild celebrating their historic achievement.
This was a game no neutral really fancied watching - and nothing that happened for 120 minutes did much to change that view. But for sheer drama and raw human emotion it was one of the most memorable games in these finals.
Lucas Barrios went close after 20 minutes but Japan keeper Eiji Kawashima denied him with a brave block.
Seconds later Daisuke Matsui struck the bar with a 30-yard piledriver while after 28 minutes Manchester City hitman Roque Santa Cruz missed from six yards.
Ten minutes later Keisuke Honda's left-footer from the edge of the box was just wide but that was it for the first half.
The match actually challenged England versus Algeria for the unwanted title of the worst game of the World Cup.
And it was about as exciting as the prospect of keeping Fabio Capello on as Three Lions boss for two more years. In a way it was understandable. Neither side had reached the quarter-finals before. They knew that they would scarcely, if ever, have a better chance to progress and caution prevailed.
Even so Paraguay were better and looked to go forward and threaten while Japan sat back throughout.
Despite dumping out world champions Italy in the group stage, Paraguay are the more pedestrian of the South American sides.
It was punishing, exacting and exhausting - and that was just for the spectators.
Five minutes into the second half Paraguay thought they had the breakthrough as Nestor Ortigoza burst into the box but Marcus Tanaka denied him with a last-ditch tackle.
Ortigoza slotted Edgar Benitez through but Yuji Nakazawa blocked. On the hour, Cristian Riveros caught a bullet header from Claudio Morel Rodriguez's cross but Kawashima gathered.

VS Denmark
A World Cup notable for its lack of free-kick wonder goals was suddenly lit up by two absolute belters as the lads from the Land of the Rising Sun reached the last 16.
Midfielder Keisuke Honda bent a 30-yard free-kick past Denmark's Stoke keeper Thomas Sorensen with 17 minutes gone.
And, 13 minutes later, team-mate Yasuhito Endo fired past Sorensen's outstretched hand.
Takeshi Okada's side had to survive a late scare as Jon Dahl Tomasson tapped in a rebound after Eiji Kawashima saved the Dane's penalty.
But sub Shinji Okazaki's 88th-minute strike clinched second place in Group E.
And boss Okada insists his side have their eyes firmly on still being in the World Cup after Tuesday's second-round clash with Paraguay.
He said: "We haven't achieved our final goal yet. We still have to go forward, starting against Paraguay.
"Tonight, we will enjoy this but then we must step up and renew our efforts towards our subsequent challenges.
"Our players were very courageous and not cowardly at all.
"Our team has a strength that others do not have - we are truly united as a single team and we wanted to demonstrate football is a team sport."
The Japanese reached the knockout round for only the second time after going through as co-hosts in 2002.
Honda's blistering shot went over the Danish wall and swerved into the far corner of the net as Sorensen dived too late.
And Endo's free-kick from directly in front of the Danish goal curled around the wall and into the corner of the net.
要約 ワールドカップグループステージ第三節対デンマーク戦日本は前半17分に本田が30メートルのフリーキックを決めて先制。30分には遠藤がフリーキックを決めて２－０とするが後半にトマソンが川島が止めたPKのこぼれ球を押し込み２－１とするが88分に途中出場の岡崎がゴールを決めて３－１とし、日本が勝利した。この結果２００２年以来の決勝トーナメント進出を決めた。
感想 二本のフリーキックは共に種類の違うフリーキックだったがとても素晴らしいと感じた。この勝利が二本に感動と勇気を与えた。
