I think what lacks in Japan's education is a Bible study. In my younger days I read a lot in humanities. However I had no chances of reading a Bible systematically. Now I'm reading Book of Hosea, I think I need to comprehend what Bible says from various perspectives. I am about to manage to stand at the starting point that Westerners stood in their youth.

A Question Of Nebchadnezzar
A Question Of Nebchadnezzar
2007.02.01 2:09
'Tell me what I dreamt at night and interpret it.'- That was King Nebchadnezzar's question. Many wise people asked the king to tell what he dreamt, then they all insist they can interpret what suggested his dream was. But because the king said tell him his dream, no one dared to tell what he dreamt lest it shouldn't be his dream.
Only wise man Daniel was able to tell him what his dream was and interpret it, although king didn't tell his dream. Why he was able to do so? Because King Nebchadnezzar wanted to hear only good interpretation from whatever his dream was. Suppose he told them his dream, there might be interpretted in many ways. In his mind one dream must be interpretted in one way, and that must have been a good sign. Daniel looked through his real intention, he told him what his dream was and interpretted as the king wanted, the dream the king saw was only known to the king, there was no reason for the king to deny what his dream was if he were able to be satisfied with the interpretation someone made.
Normally it's impossible for ordinary people to answer his question, only a voyant can answer it. Daniel was a voyant as such.

Greek letters are used in something very novel and revolutionary, so those letters are used in radiation particles, also fashionable so three combination of these are found in fraternity or sorority, so beta stage must be very novel, revolutionary and fashionable, though those features don't explain what beta is.
One thing is certain. Still all Greek to me.

One Light Year
Light can travel 7.5 times around the globe in a second.
One year is 365 days. 365 times 24, which is 8760 hours.
8760 hours times 60, which is 525600 minutes.
525600 minutes times 60, which is 31536000 seconds.
So One light year can travel 40000 km times 7.5 times 31536000,
which is 126144 times 7.5 times 10000000, which is 946080 times 10000000, which is 9,460,800,000,000 km.
Answer. about 9.4 trillion km (9.4 cho km)

Finally I moved to Blogger beta, without knowing what 'beta' is. But it was much better in performance. Mixi -Japan's most popular blog is held in beta, MySpace Japan is operated in beta, it must be good, though it doesn't explain what beta is.

I read a part of his description in the Gallic Wars at age 17 and still I remember well. He was known to us first as a general in army, then later a reputable politician, but also he was a historian, and of course fairly a good writer. I think now I can easily get access to his work, the Gallic Wars in English through the Internet. I'd like to read his masterpiece by all means.
I've been reading the Old Testament little by little, this morning I finished reading the Book of Daniel. I'm sure I read the anecdote of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego at age 14 but I had completely forgotten it till recently. When I encountered the keyword 'resurrection' few days ago, I suddenly recall the names of these people. I appreciated reading the Book of Daniel greatly.

Recently I resumed reading Old Testament and now I am about to complete reading a Book of Ezekiel. I will enter the Book of Daniel soon.
I clearly memorise the contents of a book I read usually now since I read them taking enough time to digest. There was an exception in some period in my life, that was at age 14.
I recall some episode in a Book of Daniel before the very moment I enter this book. I cannot believe this is a coincidence.

I found this term for the first time in Rimbaud's letter of voyant. This term is not English. The meaning is a person who see, but at the same time it connotes a person who see things and events that are not in presence in front of him, so it might be an event occurred in the past or in future or events in somewhere else.
This is totally inexplicable in our current science, though, there seems to certainly exist. This is a very strange ability for humans. There are many descriptions of prediction in prophet's books. I will re read them from another perspective.

Rejuvenated
On Monday evening my girlfriend visited my room, then she stayed. I slept from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. I mean I stayed up late. I didn't feel like sleeping because she was visiting. I was so exited.
On Tuesday night she styed my room again. I was unable to sleep at all, I mean I stayed up late till morning and today I had to go to work at 10 a.m. I didn't sleep at all.
I tend to be rejuvenated when she is beside me. I am going to sleep soon, it's nearly 1 a.m. It seems I'm going to fall asleep for natural reason. But if she were here tonight too, I will not go to sleep for supernatural reason.
Good night.

Resurrection
I read many books in minor so sometimes I only recall the phrase but am unable to recall what it was meant.
Several years ago I encounterred the phrase 'Shadrach, Meshack, and Abednego' one time while I was reading 'The Whale' in English. I noticed once I read the phrase in Old Testament that I read a part of it at age 14 in Japanese, but I was unable to recall who those people were.
After I finished reading 'The Whale', I started reading 'The Old Testament' in English, hoping I would encounter the same phrase in it. After 4 months I completed reading it till Jeremiah 14, but I was unable to find the similar names. Several years ago the search engine was not familiar to us Japanese. I could have look it up in encyclopaedia, but soon I forgot and left it away.
Tonight while I thought about Tolstoy's novel 'Resurrection', abruptly I felt like looking into the phrase, I only recall the name 'Abednego'. I put the word and now I recall who all people were from the article in Wikipedia.
Certainly they were immortal. The article made my memory resurrected.

Moratorium
Moratorium
2007.01.23 6:07
In food world there's a strange double standard, that is 'best before' and 'bad after'.
Best before indicates our optimal consumption date but that does not necessarily indicate the limit of permissable consumption date we can consume as long as possible. That means we can consume the products after the date of best before if we don't care the taste or freshness of the products as much as possible.
In general consumers tend to use the products after the date of best before. Producers ought not to use their products after the date of best before, however they sometimes do. It's not a good idea, since producers ought not to be a consumer, they are a mediater of products. It's important to define the role of producers and consumers, but when they failed to do so, the collapse starts.
The moratorium between the period of best before and bad after is the cause of confusion in food industry, but at the same time the gap between these two dates bears nothing but the profit.

We had a special television programme called 'The Impact Of "Google Revolution"' last night.
Since we had had a short prologue of this programme many times, I wanted to watch, but for unknown reason I completely forgot to watch the programme last night.
The programme will be aired tomorrow night again - so I think I must watch, but I'm afraid I will miss watching it again.
I feel 'Google Revolution' very close to me everyday, so as if I were watching the special programme everyday. That might have been the real reason I tend to forget what I was wanting to watch.

This is interesting because these examples reflect somehow their national characteristic. Germans are straight, they don't hide their real intention. Some Filipina are very wise while others are needed help truly. Italians are good-natured, they know they need to do something to acquire the reward for it.

In 1991, in Hannover Station I was asked from a young guy to help him. He just told me that I could help him. I said OK, and asked him what you want me to help. He said it's one coin -one dollar equivalent. I was willing to help him.
The same year in downtown Dublin, I was asked from a guy when I was taking a breakfast that I could give him a pound. We could buy today's soup in one pound and that might be what he wanted. I remember I gave him 50 shillings, knowing he can't buy a soup.
At the edge of the small bridge over the river Liffee, a woman was raising the board that reads 'I need to build a house, please help.' Of course I ignored, thinking who cares whether she can build a house by donations on the street. It's her responsibility, please work and earn money.
In the Philippines in Baguio on the each side of the pass from the church down to the downtown, many beggars were begging. They were just sitting. They seemed to have no energy left to ask one of us to help. Just before leaving the Philippines, in central Manila Cubao, one woman asked me to give her money. I gave her all coins. Coins will not be in use outside the country. She might have noticed that I would leave the country soon since I carried a big bag with my love.
In Millan a middle age guy was wandering before the ticket vendor for subway. The vendor was a bit different from the machine I used in other cities - we can't use banknote, therefore no change can be done. A guy usually have his coins for those vendors and he willingly put his coins into the vendor. He demands the traffic fee plus tips to him. I was about to give him 50000 lira - 50 bucks. He was amazed and gazed at me with groaning voice and declined to accept it. I gave him 1000 lira instead. He said 'gracie, gracie' This was the first Italian word fo me to hear, which was not bad at all.
In Los Angeles, 1986, one young woman asked me to exchange her 1 dollar banknote before the coin locker, explaing she needs 25 cents. I happened to have 4 quaters, so I just showed her 4 coins. She took one from my palm and used it without saying anything.

Many Japanese women were not confident in their looks. Small long eyes with fatty eyelids. Since there's no distinctive lines in eyelids, many women undergo cosmetic surgery in their eyelids to make the line in them.
Their nose is short, so they undergo the surgery to make it long and straight.
Generally many Japanese feel less confident of their looking, that resulted in overall mean performance in their behaviour. Their communication skill is more worse than their appearances, despite those facts, they ought to try to make themselves understood in their candid natural way.

Many Japanese women were not confident in their looks. Small long eyes with fatty eyelids. Since there's no distinctive lines in eyelids, many women undergo cosmetic surgery in their eyelids to make the line in them.
Their nose is short, so they undergo the surgery to make it long and straight.
Generally many Japanese feel less confident of their looking, that resulted in overall mean performance in their behaviour. Their communication skill is more worse than their appearances, despite those facts, they ought to try to make themselves understood in their candid natural way. That's the first thing for them to step forward, I'm afraid.

Cosmetic Surgery
Cosmetic Surgery
2007.01.19 3:05
Some very pretty Japanese women underwent cosmetic surgery in an attempt to gain more attractive looks. They were already very pretty, so unfortunately they looked meaner than before. They abruptly disappeared from the public scene. I suspect three people at least.
One woman underwent cosmetic surgery in some television project. Her looks changed completely. She was reborn. The cost was 30 thousand dollars and all were paid by television sponsers.
Cosmetic surgery ought to be done only in such very limited cases.

There's an interesting comercial message made by Japan's Democratic Party, which has been aring lately for the coming election of the Senate.
Japan Democratic Party is made up with combination of conservatives and liberals. Two conservatives -former member of Liberal Democratic Party - made a fist in the right hand. One liberal -former Social Democrats made a fist in his left hand.
Few might notice that.

In television report I was able to watch the scene of California where frost harmed citruses. The sum of damage in citrus is said to be surpassed 1000 million dollars.
5 days ago we just heard that the climate in America was much warmer than usual, then this time it was hit by recordbreaking cold.
Because of the el nino, global warming? We are surrounded by many wonders.

Paying A Visit To Shrines
We usually pay a visit to shrines at the beginning of the year. Three shrines actually. I have already done it on the first of this month. I will do it the rest of two times later today. With her, but I must take a rest first.
Temperatures
I am watching weather report for 4:40 am today. The coldest temperature was - 10.3 in some part of Hokkaido. The warmest temperature was 7.9. It was here.

My girlfriend is visiting my room for the first time in 3 weeks. Apart from the dispute which to choose my girlfriend or literature, life is splendid, especially for me as a guy who easily keeps abstinent to having fun with a woman for a relatively long term.
This month she will be visiting every week and she will spend two nights in each week for she has some business here. Her kid will be 18 soon in February. The time I have to decide is nigh.

A Woman Or Literature?
What Was My Objective Of Life?
2007.01.15 1:11
Happily enough, recently I succeeded in keeping a happy mating with a woman. It was a lucky thing to have had such a happy relation. But I have been about to lose my first intention to be a writer.
You see in order to be a writer, I have to keep myself as individual as possible, this might sound strange to others, but at every turning point in my life, I had chosen to do so.
A woman, or literature. That is a question especially for me.

1. Economics is not a zero sum game: Not unless you have infinite supplies of resources to go along with that infinitely big ego it isn't. You eventually run out of stuff. True, it might take until your bank account equals the number of atoms in the universe, but that isn't an infinite number either; just an unimaginably large one. -Marxist Hacker 42
Economics ought not to be a zero sum game. But resourses we can use are so limited, so we need to develop new resourses constantly or sustainably just slightly more than enough to back your theory.
2. Protectionism: I believe in local economics first- that you should support the neighbor you know over the third world slave you don't. This is for two reasons- the first is that you're more likely to be willing to pay $500 for a DVD player if you actually know the family of the guy who put it together, and the second is that without providing for that job you're creating local poverty which is a bad idea for YOUR real estate value.
I understand where you put your value and I'd like to think highly of it.
3. There's a correlation between angry people and who the business owner chooses to lay off: Damned straight there's a correlation. But statistical correlations are notoriously bad at showing cause and effect. Sometimes there is no link between numbers that have a correlation. In this case, I think there is, but the cause and effect is backwards: being laid off will cause any human being to become paranoid and angry to the point of being illogical- because the "logic" of economics is directly opposed to their personal experience. Since observed behavior is a superior judgement of reality to stupid theories, the theory of economics should bow to the reality of being laid off.
Forgive and forget. I was fired and laid off just numerous times. They were designed to see only trees but never able to see woods. They were destined to do so. It was not their fault.

To My Brother

Hello, sammy...I just drop by to say hello to you my brother. But I don't listen to pop music at all. That disappoints you though. I listen to classical music like Chopin, Bach, Mozart, Schuman, Liszt. Any sort of music is music after a fashion.
