FILE - In this Friday, March 1, 2013 file photo, a South Korean protester playing the role of Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe kneels down on a Japanese flag during a rally demanding full compensation and apology for wartime sex slaves from Japanese government and criticizing the Japanese government's recent claim over the disputed islets called Dokdo in South Korea and Takeshima in Japan, in front of the Japanese Embassy in Seoul, South Korea. Japan has acknowledged that it conducted only a limited investigation before claiming there was no official evidence that its imperial troops coerced Asian women into sexual slavery before and during World War II. A parliamentary statement signed Tuesday, May 7 by Abe acknowledged a document produced by a postwar international military tribunal containing a Japanese soldier's testimony about abducting Chinese women as military sex slaves.

In Rocko's song “U.O.E.N.O,” Ross raps about giving a woman the drug MDMA, known as Molly, and having his way with her.

Apple apologized to Chinese consumers after government media attacked its repair policies for two weeks in a campaign that reeked of economic nationalism. Apple responded with the apology from Cook. “We've come to understand through this process that because of our poor communication, some have come to feel that Apple's attitude is arrogant and that we don't care about or value feedback from the consumer,” Cook's Chinese statement said, as translated by The Associated Press. “For the concerns and misunderstandings passed on to the consumer, we express our sincere apologies.” (AP Photo/Marcio Jose Sanchez)
