A place to rest your head (and read some manga): Japan's Asahi Shimbun reports that many late-night office workers who miss the last train home are killing time in all-night coffee shops, where they can read manga and surf the Internet until morning:
"The two-year-old shop has a package deal popular with salaried workers, according to store manager Misaki Sato. For 1,280 yen ($12 U.S.), customers can stay five hours between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m. They can choose from 25,000 comic books, surf the Net, play video games or get some shut-eye in a reclining chair. Soft drinks, tea, coffee and fruit juice are included."
