Would you please explain a bit more on

// This fix was hard-won - // just doing .css(property, '') doesn't work! $old.get(0).style["margin-left"] = "" $old.get(0).style["-webkit-transform"] = ""

What wasn't working and how this lines solved the problem?

studiomohawk··on Basics of jQuery
You should use CodeKit(http://incident57.com/codekit/). You can concatenate, minify and even optimize images with it. I've use it while I was making Minimum-theme. Thank you for using minimum-theme.

studiomohawk··on English as a second language: Test results on the most fluent countries
It does bring bad thing like you pointed out. Sometimes people try too much to keep their faces. However, it does bring good thing like they are a few or no looting in this disaster. I do believe the concept has strong influence on that matter.

But this doesn't relate anything on why Japanse suck at English despite of all hard work on school.

It's a shame from where I see but it's ok cuz most people don't speak English.

Starting today, elementary schools has started to teach English to 5th(10 to 11 years old)graders. So that's 2 more years to learn English which adds up 8 years all together.

We'll have to wait and see our score improve. I doubt it.

Japanese people don't want to make mistake in front of people. That's why we are not good at English.

Thanks for the replay. I work at Ebisu so it's really close.

I might be able to drop by since I think I can get out of work early.

I've never been to HN Get-Together before, but seems interesting. What do you guys do mostly? I kinda use Hacker News as a news source. In fact, this is the very first time I"ve commented.
