17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

A U.S. court has ruled that the Palestinian Authority (PA) has the
right to cover up a document linking it to a 2002 suicide bombing that
killed two Americans and one Israeli teenager.The paper was mistakenly given to lawyers representing the teens'
parents as plaintiffs in a $300 million lawsuit against the PA. The case
is being tried in a Washington DC federal court, with plaintiffs
represented by Nitsana Darshan-Leitner of Tel Aviv's Shurat HaDin-Israel
Law Center, and New York attorneys Robert Tolchin and David Schoen.The secret memo, dated April
2012, uncovers a very close relationship between the terrorist and a PA
security officer who planned the bombing.The document, written by Major
Ziad Abu Hamid of the PA's intelligence service, additionally supports
the alleged relationship between the defendants' material support and
the bombing.
After the mistake was realized, the federal judge ruled that the memo be destroyed after PA lawyers stressed the information was protected.Media reports have underlined that the memo reveals a link between a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist group and a salaried officer in the Palestinian Authority's security services.The terror victims' families have now filed for a stay of that order pending an appeal to the Court of Appeals in Washington, DC, as well as have written the Dept. of Justice, the FBI and several congressmen, asking them to intervene in the matter.The families contend that they have evidence that the PA provides funding to the PLO and PFLP, including paying the rent for the designated terrorist group's offices in the PA-assigned areas of Judea and Samaria.On February 16, 2002, a PFLP terrorist blew himself up in a packed pizzeria in the Israeli town of Karnei Shomron, killing American citizens Keren Shatsky, 15, and Rachel Thaler, 16 and Israeli teenager Nehemia Amar, 15.Scott Shatsky, the father of one of the victims, remarked following Monday's court decision, "This decision is incomprehensible. It makes me feel that justice is not being done. Maybe I'm missing something, but to me it's just outrageous."
According to Darshan-Leitner, "We are hopeful that the Court of Appeals will understand the importance of this document and will reverse the ruling and not allow the memo to be destroyed. It is hard proof of the defendants' role in this heinous suicide bombing that took the lives of three young teenagers. We are insisting that the truth be allowed to come out and the details of the Palestinian Authority's role in this murderous terrorist attack be presented to an American jury."In November, Shurat HaDin, representing 24 Americans living in Israel, filed a civil action against the State Department, claiming the latter was funding Arab terrorism in the Judea, Samaria and Gaza.The suit, filed in the district court for Washington, D.C., claims that the State Department has failed to observe congressional safeguards, transparency, and reporting requirements in its funding of the Palestinian Authority.In December, Shurat HaDin represented two families of American citizens in their successful $338 million lawsuit against the government of Syria.The decision found that the government of Syria was responsible for providing material support and resources to the Kurdish Workers Party ("PKK"), a terrorist organization designated by the U.S. State Department.Shurat HaDin-Israel Law Center is an Israeli based civil rights organization and world leader in combating the terrorist organizations and the regimes that support them through lawsuits litigated in courtrooms around the world. Established in 2003 and based in Tel-Aviv, Shurat HaDin works together with western intelligence agencies and volunteer lawyers around the world to file legal actions on behalf of victims of terror. It has succeeded in winning more than $1 billion in judgments, freezing more than $600 million in terrorist assets and in collecting $120 million in actual payments to the victims and their families.

Obama: Israel doesn't Know What's Good for It'
Jeffrey Goldberg: Obama said repeatedly, “Israel doesn’t know what its own best interests are.”
Barack Obama-Reuters
The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg, writing in Bloomberg View,
has revealed that U.S. President Barack Obama said repeatedly
recently that Israel does not know what its own best interests are.When informed about the Israeli decision to approve construction plans in the E1 area, "Obama, who has a famously contentious relationship with the prime minister,
didn’t even bother getting angry," wrote Goldberg. "He told several
people that this sort of behavior on Netanyahu’s part is what he has
come to expect, and he suggested that he has become inured to what he
sees as self-defeating policies of his Israeli counterpart."In the weeks after the UN vote, Obama said privately and repeatedly,
'Israel doesn’t know what its own best interests are.' With each new settlement announcement, in Obama’s view, Netanyahu is moving his country down a path toward near-total isolation."
According to Goldberg, Obama "has become convinced that Netanyahu is so captive to the settler lobby, and so uninterested in making anything more than the slightest conciliatory gesture toward Palestinian moderates, that an investment of presidential interest in the peace process wouldn’t be a wise use of his time.""For Israel," Goldberg predicts, "the short-term consequences of Obama’s frustration are limited. The U.S. won’t cut off its aid to Israel, and Obama’s effort to thwart Iran’s nuclear ambitions will continue whether or not he’s fed up with Netanyahu."But it is in terms of American diplomatic protection – among the Europeans and especially at the UN – that Israel may one day soon notice a significant shift."Goldberg warns the U.S. may not support Israel in U.N. votes like the one that recently affirmed the PLO's nation status, and that Obama may eventually offer "a public vision of what a state of Palestine should look like," in which he will affirm that it should have its capital in East Jerusalem.

Israel renews contacts with UN Human Rights Council
Jerusalem envoy speaks with president of Geneva-based group, with which it broke ties in 2012; Venezuela chosen to oversee review of the Jewish state
January 15, 2013, 2:08 pm
6-The times of Israel
Israel has taken steps that
appear to be aimed at restoring its relationship with the United Nations
Human Rights Council, 10 months after Jerusalem cut ties with the body
over a planned fact-finding mission into the West Bank settlement
enterprise, The Times of Israel has learned.Israel’s permanent representative to the
Geneva-based UNHRC, Ambassador Eviatar Manor, last Thursday spoke to the
council’s president, Remigiusz Henczel, in what is believed to be the
first senior-level official dealing between the two parties since Israel
unilaterally severed ties and ceased cooperating with the body last
March.In a meeting of the Human Rights Council
Bureau, Manor asked Henczel to postpone a routine review of the human
rights situation in Israel. Manor “also stated that Israel respected all
human rights mechanisms, although it had a complex and difficult
relation with the Council and OHCHR [Office of the High Commissioner for
Human Rights],” according to the official minutes of the meeting.“Members of the Bureau took positive note of
this development, a first in many months,” the minutes read, adding,
however, that UNHRC officials believe Israel’s step “deserved to be
complemented and clarified.”UNHRC officials also expressed hope that last
week’s conversation “would soon be complemented by a written note,”
which would explain why Israel requested a postponement of the review
and for how long.Foreign Ministry spokesman Paul Hirschson said
there is “no change in Israel’s policy regarding the Human Rights
Council.” Yet he did not state whether Israel would participate in the
routine review and declined to explain why Manor request a delay of the
procedure.Israel’s relations with the UNHRC were never
good, yet reached a nadir in March 2012, after the council decided to
dispatch an independent international fact-finding mission to
“investigate the implications of the Israeli settlements on the civil,
political, economic, social and cultural rights of the Palestinian
people” throughout the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Incensed about the
council’s apparent obsession with Israel, the government in Jerusalem
decided not to allow the council to carry out the probe and canceled any
cooperation with it.“From now on, we will no longer work together
in any way, shape or form with any officials from the council, including
High Commissioner [Navi Pillay],” a top Foreign Ministry official said
at the time. “If anyone from the council calls us, we just won’t answer
the phone.”Analysts suggest last week’s apparent rapprochement could be linked to last month’s resignation of foreign minister Avigdor Liberman, who was behind Israel’s boycott of the UNHRC.The Israeli ambassador’s conversation with the
UNHRC president last week centered around Israel’s participation in the
so-called Universal Periodic Review (UPR),
a standard assessment of the human rights records of all UN member
states overseen by the council since its founding in 2006. Israel
participated in the first round of reviews, which was concluded by
October 2011, but has so far failed to indicate whether it would
participate in the second round, which is currently ongoing.
Each country’s UPR is overseen by three nations, drawn from a lot by a representative of the country under review.But since Jerusalem did not send any delegate
to a session Monday during which Israel’s so-called troika was to be
selected, Henczel, the Council’s president, drew the countries to
oversee Israel’s review: Maldives, Sierra Leone and Venezuela. Since the
government in Caracas is known to be hostile toward Israel, cutting
ties in 2009 in the wake of 2008-09 Operation Cast Lead, “commotion and
laughter” erupted in the room when Venezuela was drawn, according to
notes taken by UN Watch, a Geneva-based watchdog and human rights group.Pakistan’s representative slammed Israel over
its failure to appear at the meeting, urging the council to do
everything in its power not to let Israel skip the review, as this could
compromise the entire UPR mechanism, which is based on universality.
Representatives of other countries also urged Israel to return to the
fold and comply with the UNHRC’s review processes, but refrained from
calling for punitive action.“The member accusing Israel of violating the
founding principles of the UN human rights system was newly elected
Pakistan, a savage land where women are gang-raped by tribal edict,”
said Hillel Neuer, UN Watch’s executive director. “And the one chosen,
by a draw of lots, to be one of three overseers of Israel’s council
review is another newly elected member, the Iranian-allied dictatorship
of Venezuela. A jury of rapists and brigands is not justice, it’s a
travesty.”After Manor’s conversation, the council
decided to suspend the discussion of Israel’s participation until
January 29. If by then Israel has not confirmed that it will comply with
the review, the council will decide on a “course of action to be
taken,” according to UN Watch notes.
“A chorus of reflexively pro-UN voices, from
European diplomats to radical left NGOs… have lashed out at Israel’s
apparent decision to skip the UPR, accusing the Jewish state of wreaking
apocalyptic damage upon a supposedly precious world institution,” Neuer
told The Times of Israel. “In reality the UPR is, for the most part, a
mutual praise society. Qaddafi’s Libyan regime came out of its review
with top marks. It’s not for nothing that despots walk into this court
with confidence and ease.”The UNHCR did not respond to a query for comment before the article was posted. DOCTOR DOCTORIAN FROM ANGEL OF GOD

U.S. Court Orders Destruction of Memo Linking PA to Terror
U.S.
court rules that the PA has the right to cover up a document linking it
to a 2002 suicide bombing in Israel that killed 3 teenagers.
Attorney Nitzana Darshan-Leitner-Yoni Kempinski
After the mistake was realized, the federal judge ruled that the memo be destroyed after PA lawyers stressed the information was protected.Media reports have underlined that the memo reveals a link between a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist group and a salaried officer in the Palestinian Authority's security services.The terror victims' families have now filed for a stay of that order pending an appeal to the Court of Appeals in Washington, DC, as well as have written the Dept. of Justice, the FBI and several congressmen, asking them to intervene in the matter.The families contend that they have evidence that the PA provides funding to the PLO and PFLP, including paying the rent for the designated terrorist group's offices in the PA-assigned areas of Judea and Samaria.On February 16, 2002, a PFLP terrorist blew himself up in a packed pizzeria in the Israeli town of Karnei Shomron, killing American citizens Keren Shatsky, 15, and Rachel Thaler, 16 and Israeli teenager Nehemia Amar, 15.Scott Shatsky, the father of one of the victims, remarked following Monday's court decision, "This decision is incomprehensible. It makes me feel that justice is not being done. Maybe I'm missing something, but to me it's just outrageous."
According to Darshan-Leitner, "We are hopeful that the Court of Appeals will understand the importance of this document and will reverse the ruling and not allow the memo to be destroyed. It is hard proof of the defendants' role in this heinous suicide bombing that took the lives of three young teenagers. We are insisting that the truth be allowed to come out and the details of the Palestinian Authority's role in this murderous terrorist attack be presented to an American jury."In November, Shurat HaDin, representing 24 Americans living in Israel, filed a civil action against the State Department, claiming the latter was funding Arab terrorism in the Judea, Samaria and Gaza.The suit, filed in the district court for Washington, D.C., claims that the State Department has failed to observe congressional safeguards, transparency, and reporting requirements in its funding of the Palestinian Authority.In December, Shurat HaDin represented two families of American citizens in their successful $338 million lawsuit against the government of Syria.The decision found that the government of Syria was responsible for providing material support and resources to the Kurdish Workers Party ("PKK"), a terrorist organization designated by the U.S. State Department.Shurat HaDin-Israel Law Center is an Israeli based civil rights organization and world leader in combating the terrorist organizations and the regimes that support them through lawsuits litigated in courtrooms around the world. Established in 2003 and based in Tel-Aviv, Shurat HaDin works together with western intelligence agencies and volunteer lawyers around the world to file legal actions on behalf of victims of terror. It has succeeded in winning more than $1 billion in judgments, freezing more than $600 million in terrorist assets and in collecting $120 million in actual payments to the victims and their families.
Explosions at Syria's Aleppo university kills 15: group
Reuters – 1 hr 28 mins ago JAN 15,13
BEIRUT (Reuters) - At least 15 people were killed and dozens wounded in two explosions that rocked the University of Aleppo in Syria's second largest city on Tuesday, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.State television
said there had been one explosion at the university, which lies in the
government-controlled area, describing it as a "terrorist attack".Rebels have used car bombs and suicide attacks in fighting government forces and attacking government-controlled areas.Fighting between rebels and government forces has reached a stalemate in Aleppo and left the city divided. Rebels say they control more than half the province.State television footage showed at least one body lying on the street and several cars burning.The second
explosion reported by the Observatory, a British-based opposition
monitoring group, may have been caused by a burning car, but there was
no independent confirmation.One of the
university buildings was damaged. The state news agency said the
explosion occurred on the first day of exams.

ADL: Based on Interviews, Easy to See Why Morsi Can't Be Trusted
Video
interviews, in which Morsi calls to drive Jews out of Israel, prove
Arab world unwilling to recognize existence of Jewish state.

The revival of past video interviews given by Egypt's President, in which the leader calls Jews "blood-suckers," and "the descendants
of apes and pigs" and calls on Palestinian-Arabs to drive Israeli-Jews
out of their land, has enforced the position that Israel’s Arab
neighbors are unwilling to agree to peace with a Jewish state and has
raised questions from those abroad about the stability of peace as the
country's new leadership only begins to take form."The Palestinian Authority was created by the Zionist and
American enemies for the sole purpose of opposing the will of the
Palestinian people and its interests…Either (you accept) the zionists
and everything they want, or else it is war…these blood-suckers who
attack the palestinians, these warmongers, the descendants of apes and pigs…None of the arab regimes should have dealings with them. They should be driven out of this country."These are just some of the statements made by the Muslim Brotherhood leader which have been circulating recently in a Youtube
video that aims to expose the truth behind the apparent claims of
democratic values and peace with Israel bellowed by Mohamed Morsi since
the beginning of his campaign for president.For many, the revival of the videos has confirmed the
position of those who believe the Arab countries surrounding Israel have
been and will always be unwilling to agree to the existence of a Jewish
state, despite concessions or negotiations on the part of Israel.“When the leader of a country has a history of statements
demonizing Jews, and he does not do anything to correct it, it makes
sense that many people in Israel would conclude that he cannot be trusted as a partner for peace,” Kenneth Jacobson, deputy national director of the Anti-Defamation League, told the New York Times.
Although many of the comments made by Morsi about
Zionists, such as, “They have been fanning the flames of civil strife
wherever they were throughout their history. They are hostile by
nature,” may be considered common throughout the Arab world, they are
seen as a great liability abroad and only time will tell if the true
sentiments of the new Egyptian leader will rear its head again.
Cameron EU speech brought forward to avoid diplomatic row
Today @ 10:12 JAN 15,13 By Benjamin Fox
BRUSSELS - David Cameron is to give his
long-awaited speech on Britain's place in the EU on Friday (18
January), four days earlier than planned to avoid the anniversary of a
Franco-German friendship treaty.
The prime minister had planned to lay out his thoughts on Europe on 22 January but it clashed with the 50th anniversary of the Elysee treaty, which established the European Coal and Steel Community making the date a diplomatic no-go.The run-up to the speech has been beset by other PR problems too. It will be held in the Netherlands but Dutch liberal Prime Minister Mark Rutte - thought to share some of London's thinking on EU issues - is not planning on attending.Meanwhile details of the speech are likely to be circulated to other European capitals in advance of Friday.The Tory leader is expected to promise that he will use any further revision of the EU treaties, including plans to increase the economic and fiscal integration of the eurozone, to rewrite Britain's membership terms.Although Cameron does not favour an 'in/out' referendum, he is expected to announce that renegotiating Britain's membership terms will form part of the Conservative party's election manifesto for the next parliamentary elections in 2015.However, this is unlikely to appease his party's supporters.A survey by the Conservative Home website found that 48 percent of Conservative members wanted a referendum on EU membership either before or on the same day as the 2014 European Parliament elections in June.Meanwhile, only 16 percent of those surveyed backed Cameron's strategy to repatriate powers, with 40 percent wanting Britain's membership to be restricted just to access to the single market and 38 percent wanting to leave the bloc.Cameron is also coming under pressure from his own MPs. The 'Fresh Start' group of over 100 backbench Conservative MPs is expected to publish a paper this week demanding the repatriation of a wide range of EU laws, including crime and policing and social policy.Several cabinet ministers, including Chancellor George Osborne, have also broken ranks, claiming that Britain would have to leave the EU if other countries refused to agree to their demands.Pro-Europeans have also entered the debate. Last week the cross-party Centre for British Influence in Europe, including veteran Conservative minister Ken Clarke and former EU Trade Commissioner Peter Mandelson, was launched, promising to make a "patriotic case" for Britain's EU membership.The opposition Labour party has so far refused to promise a referendum. Opposition leader Ed Miliband described Cameron's strategy as "an incredible gamble" with Britain's future and accused Cameron of "sleepwalking" Britain to exit the EU.Cameron's coalition partners, the Liberal Democrats, led by former MEP Nick Clegg, also oppose any changes to Britain's status.

Schaeuble: Greece has 'no alternative' to austerity
14.01.13 @ 17:49 JAN 15,13 By Valentina Pop
BERLIN - German finance minister
Wolfgang Schaeuble on Monday (14 January) urged Greek opposition leader
Alexis Tsipras to drop his opposition to bailout-linked austerity
measures, saying there is "no alternative" if Greece wants to stay in
the eurozone.It was the first time the veteran minister and ally of Chancellor
Angela Merkel received the young leftist leader, who has blamed Germany
for the hardships which Greek people are enduring."If there are disagreements, it is good to have a dialogue,"
Schaeuble's spokeswoman Silke Bruns told a press briefing on Monday
morning.After the meeting, the positions of the two men did not appear to have moved any closer, however.According to one official, Schaeuble told Tsipras "unequivocally that
there is no alternative to the path already taken, the implementation
of an economic adjustment programme."The German minister urged Tsipras to back the programme, which
includes recently-passed changes on income tax which Tsipras' party,
Syriza, voted against.A recent upgrade by six notches in Standard & Poor's rating of Greek debt is proof the reforms are working, Schaeuble said.
For Tsipras, what matters more are the legions of unemployed people and hospital patients with inadequate care, whose situation, he said, is getting tougher each day as government slashes expenditure to please creditors and markets."Austerity is like a bad medicine for the patient. We have to stop austerity," he told this website on the eve of the meeting.It was the same message he repeated in his talks with Schaeuble, he said afterwards.Greece is currently in its sixth year of recession.It has had two bailouts and a partial reduction of its debt. Unemployment is at almost 27 percent, suicide rates have gone up and the neo-Nazi "Golden Dawn" party is growing in popularity.

China's space activities raising U.S. satellite security concerns
By Andrea Shalal-Esa | Reuters – Mon, Jan 14, 2013
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States is concerned about China's expanding ability to disrupt the most sensitive U.S. military and intelligence satellites, as Beijing pursues its expanded ambitions in space, according to multiple sources in the U.S. government and outside space experts.A classified U.S. intelligence assessment completed
late last year analyzed China's increasing activities in space and
mapped out the growing vulnerability of U.S. satellites that provide
secure military communications, warn about enemy missile launches and
provide precise targeting coordinates, said the sources, who were not
authorized to speak publicly."It was a very credible and sobering assessment that is
now provoking a lot of activities in different quarters," said one
former government official who is familiar with U.S. national security
satellite programs.
The intelligence report raised red flags about Beijing's ability to disrupt satellites in higher orbits, which could put the most sensitive U.S. spacecraft at risk, according to the sources. China has already conducted several anti-satellite tests at lower orbital levels in recent years.Given the heightened concerns, Washington is keeping a watchful eye on Chinese activities that could be used to disrupt U.S. satellites. It is also urging Beijing to avoid a repeat of its January 2007 test that created an enormous amount of "space junk," said one senior defense official.Details of the latest Chinese moves that have raised U.S. concerns remain classified.
U.S. officials charge that China's anti-satellite activities are part of a major military modernization that has seen Beijing test two new stealth fighters; step up cyber attacks on foreign computer networks; and launch more commercial and military satellites in 2012 than the United States.China still lags behind the United States in most military fields."What we're seeing is a heightened sense in the United States that China is a potential threat and that it has the technology to be a threat if it wishes to," said Jonathan McDowell, with the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics."As China becomes a space superpower, and given that it does have a significant military component to its space program, it is inevitable that the U.S. will be concerned about threats to its most valued satellite systems, whether or not China actually intends to deploy such aggressive systems," he said.
CREATING SPACE DEBRIS
Six years ago, on January 11, 2007, China destroyed one of its own defunct weather satellites in low-earth orbit, which created over 10,000 pieces of debris that pose a threat to other spacecraft. A less-destructive test followed on January 11, 2010.Space experts and U.S. officials say they expect China to continue testing anti-satellite technologies, although they doubt it would repeat the 2007 test, given the massive international outcry it triggered.Gregory Kulacki, a respected researcher with the Union of Concerned Scientists, reported earlier this month on the group's website that there was "a strong possibility" of a new anti-satellite test by China within the next few weeks.He said Chinese sources had told him in November that an announcement about an upcoming anti-satellite test had been circulated within the Chinese government, and a high-ranking U.S. defense official confirmed in December that Washington was "very concerned" about an imminent Chinese anti-satellite test.The Chinese Defense Ministry did not respond to emailed queries by Reuters' Beijing office on the question.The Pentagon said it was aware of reports predicting another test, but declined comment on what it called "intelligence matters.""We monitor carefully China's military developments and urge China to exhibit greater transparency regarding its capabilities and intentions," said Lieutenant Colonel Monica Matoush.Sources within the U.S. government and outside experts said there was no immediate evidence pointing to the preparations for the type of satellite or rocket launches used by China for past anti-satellite tests at lower orbits.But they said Beijing could test its anti-satellite weapons in other ways that would be harder to detect, such as by jamming a satellite's signals from the ground or issuing a powerful electromagnetic pulse from one satellite to disable another.China could also maneuver two satellites very close together at higher orbits, replicating actions it has already taken in lower orbits in August 2010 and November 2010. Such activities could be used to perform maintenance or test docking capabilities for human spaceflight, but could clearly be used for more destructive purposes as well, they said.The United States has continued to test its own anti-satellite capabilities. In February 2008, a missile fired from a U.S. Navy cruiser in the north Pacific destroyed an ailing American satellite in orbit.The U.S. government said the satellite's toxic fuel posed a risk upon re-entry of the earth's atmosphere. Skeptics said the test was a message to China.Any further anti-satellite test by China would be troubling, especially if it occurred at higher altitudes, said Bruce MacDonald, a former White House official who is now a senior director at the U.S. Institute of Peace.The United States operates its fleet of Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites in medium earth orbit about 11,000 miles above the surface of the earth, while U.S. military communications and early missile warning satellites are located in geostationary orbit 22,000 miles above the equator.

Brian Weeden,
technical adviser for the nonprofit Secure World Foundation and a former

at those higher orbits would put U.S. satellites at risk.
"Some critical U.S. assets in that region have been
assumed for the most part to be safe from those kind of attacks," he
said. "Such tests would signal that they're not."(Additional

Snow forces 3,400 to spend night at Tokyo airport
– 1 hr 28 mins ago JAN 15,13
TOKYO (AP) — Tokyo's Narita International Airport operator says 3,400 travelers spent the night in the terminal after snow caused airlines to cancel 71 flights.In the season's first snowfall in the Japanese capital, about 8
centimeters (3 inches) of snow fell in central Tokyo and around Narita
on Monday — a national holiday in Japan. The snow snarled traffic and
caused train delays.Airport officials distributed sleeping bags, water and crackers to
stranded travelers. Normal flight operations at Narita resumed Tuesday,
except for a few delays.Major train operator JR East said trains were running on schedule Tuesday.Sections of several highways around Tokyo were still closed Tuesday as workers cleared away snow and ice.
