JAPAN RELAXES VISA REQUIREMENTS FOR THOSE WHO MASTER JAPANESE

On Monday, January 28, 2008, the Japanese government made a public  
announcement that should have the full attention of many people on  
this mailing list.  In an effort to attract and keep more skilled  
labor, the government has decided to ease technical proficiency and  
experience requirements for resident visas, if the foreign worker CAN  
ATTAIN CERTAIN LEVELS OF JAPANESE LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY.  Now more  
than ever before is the time to double your efforts at learning the  
language.  Read a short article on the announcement here:

HEAVY DISCOUNT ON MANGAJIN MAGAZINE BACK ISSUES

Mangajin Magazine is one of the highest quality Japanese language  
learning publications ever produced.  Every line of Japanese was  
taken from real manga and expertly translated with copious footnotes  
by teams of 5 professionals who were both native English and native  
Japanese speakers.  This quality level has never been matched, and  
the sad fact of the matter is that they are no longer published.   
That's why it's so important to find as many of the Mangajin back- 
issues as you can.  Of the 70 issues produced, only half are still  
available, the others difficult to obtain.  At 6.50 USD per issue,  
they are a bargain, but Rolomail sells them at just 4.95 USD per  
issue when you buy 35 issues at once:

That's certainly a tempting offer.  But what would you say if  
Rolomail then went and offered the same 35 issues at one third off of  
that price?  This is the magic URL that will take a full 33% off of  
the already low price:

"But wait, there's more" as Billy Mays always says on TV!  What if  
there were a magic URL that in addition to knocking off 1/3 of the  
price of the 35 Issue Mangajin Special, and the 5 free cassette tapes  
that come with it, you were also able to get one of the best books on  
Japanese business every published, that was also manga comics and in  
English?  Specifically "Bringing Home the Sushi":

Well, there is such a special URL.  Here it is and it's good thru  
Friday:
