<p>not sure why I ended up watching this one, but the NZ news woman bored by watching the <strike>Hurricanes</strike> (Chiefs Vs Highlanders) was amusing-forward it to about 7:23. Lots of other funnier moments too.</p>

<div><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;">TOKYO — He was celebrated as a prolific musical genius whose compositions appeared everywhere from popular video games to the competition routine of a top figure skater in the upcoming Sochi Olympics. <strong>His deafness won him praise as Japanâ€
s digital-age Beethoven</strong>.</span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;">On Thursday, Japan reacted with remorse, outrage, and even the rare threat of a lawsuit after the composer, Mamoru Samuragochi, 50, admitted that he had hired a <strong>ghostwriter</strong> since the 1990s to write most of his music. The anger turned to disbelief when the ghostwriter himself came forward to accuse Mr. Samuragochi of <strong>faking his deafness</strong>, apparently <strong>to win public sympathy</strong>.</span></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;">The scandal began on Wednesday, when Mr. Samuragochi suddenly confessed that someone else had written his most famous works. These include <strong>Symphony No. 1 “Hiroshima,</strong>†about the 1945 atomic bombing of his home city, which became a classical music hit in Japan; the theme music for the video games <strong>Resident Evil</strong> and <strong>Onimusha</strong>; and Sonatina for Violin, which the Japanese Olympic figure skater Daisuke Takahashi is scheduled to use in his short program performance at the <strong>Winter Games in Sochi</strong>.</span></span></div>

<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;">Asahi Shimbun, Japanâ€s second-biggest-selling newspaper, in a mea culpa published Thursday, wrote <strong>“the media must also consider our own tendency to fall for tear-jerking stories.â€</strong></span></span></div>

<p>Always wanted to own a Spitfire. So graceful.</p>

<p>There was another clip linked there somewhere with a Lancaster flyover. Think about how big the balls were on the guys flying those over Germany...</p> -
