For the first time in several months, I posted a comment in a main page. Part of the reason I didn't post was the article here in a main page of Slashdot is often very special to me who is not well versed in technology & computer, so I feel it difficult to get access to.
This time I found an article I often thought about. I'm glad I could post it.

Tutu
Tutu
2006.01.21 12:51
Tutu refers to a very short skirt ballerina wear but also means the way she dance with two toes and walks in a very short step. As a matter of fact, what muscle she uses most is her sphincter -muscles around her bottom.
Ballerina is not only girls, there are many boys as well. But some are not exactly boys but effeminate man -some might use the term fag/faggot for them, but others might think them offensive.
When I was teaching English more than ten years ago, I made friends with other English teachers. One of them was a man in gender, but his sexual preference is toward the same sex. He's a fag as such, he himself claimed that he is a fag so I use this term here. He revealed that his pleasure spot is not in his genital organ, but around his sphincter. So he played a role of female when he has relation with a man.
Freud wrote in his book 'Three Vicissitudes of Sexually Pleasurable Spots' or something that there are three stages of vicissitudes. The first stage is mouth period, which had been largely performed by babies. The second was anal period. This was through defecation, kids older than babies sure to have their pleasuse. But these two periods are relatively short and soon the sexually pleasurable spot of almost all people would go into genital organs.
Probably fag people were unable to transmit his period successfully and stayed in the stage of anal period.
In fact, his favorite dance in a disco was 'tutu'. Apparently he looked like a old man -he was 7 years older than me, but dancing tutu, people around him laughed at him.
Probably he was just pursuing what he feels good. It was his fate to do so.

Werewolf
Werewolf
2006.01.20 16:35
17 years ago, serial murder of four little girls occurred. Fortunately the murderer was caught in his fifth attempt, that was failed.
Since then many scientists and scholars, psycologists and psychiatrists, sociologists and criminologists have long argued that whether he is normal or insane, etc.
Three categories were raised as the possible cases, one is just a cae of character disorder, responsible to the crimes. The second is that he is a holder of multiple-character, which is partly responsible to the crimes. The third is he is one of the severe cases of disintegration syndrome, completely unable to have responsibility to the crimes. If he were categolised case 3 or 2, he would be free from charge, he will put to a mental hospital but anyway his life will be spared. He was categolised as case 1, and he was sentenced to death penalty from the Supreme Court of Japan.
Werewolf, Mr Hyde, there were so many sufferers of this complex disease, he might not be responsible when he is normal, or Dr Jykill, but he is responssible for his crimes he committed when he was a werewolf, Mr Hyde. We cannot kill just a normal person, Dr Jykill, but we ought to impose death penalty on a werewolf, or Mr Hyde.
Our law shows justice to werewolf, Mr Hyde, not upon an ordinary person, or respectable Dr Hyde. Natural Consequences.

Thank you very much. Your comment encourages me much. What moves us is not a language we use, but an object before our verbal expression. Whatever the language we use, objective truth is the same. I usually form the notion what I want to express in the first place. Then I verbalise it into whatever the language is. But for me it is much easier to anglicise some notion I held. English is much closer to the notion itself.

Who Founded A Holiday?
Who Founded A Holiday?
[ #126942 ] Friday January 20, @04:00PM
That's Moses. If you had read Exodus, he repeatedly told his people the importance of holiday. Once in a week, that counts for something. Probably Moses learned the cycle of 7 from his vast astological knowledge. One violator was stoned to death. It was thus important.
I was unable to take holidays once in a week for this one month. I am not a wage worker and I am not working full time every day, though, I just found it hard to keep this pattern as it is. I've got to think it over again in order to keep on healthy working life.

There must be several 'Sugar Loaf's near your area.
The guy shot at the centre seems to be Asian origin, but he's more Indian or Vietnamese. Guessing from the name of URL (we can read 'redbrick') it might be a school excursion. Of course I'm not in the pictures.
These 103 pictures perfectly illustrates what I saw in those days in Wicklow county, near Dun Laoghaire, Irish Republic. I was there for two months from June to July in 1991. I tell you the real reason I chose to show these pictures. You see a woman wearing a red jacket who were waving her right hand looking and smiling at us. She 'ridiculously' takes after a woman who I climbed with those days. I encountered a woman on the street of Dun Laoghaire the very day I landed from Hollyhead, Wales by ferry called Straener.
It is true that the Internet enables us to experience what seems impossible. I was able to experience once more the day's excursion fourteen years later.

In 1991, June and July, for two months I stayed in Ireland. For one month I stayed in Dun Laoghaire (pronounce Dun Lairy) I was struck with a very bad cold there so I had to stay there. The memory in Ireland is not very good. I climbed the mountain called 'Sugar Loaf' located near Dun Laoghaire with a woman who I happened to encounter at the harbour of Dun Laoghaire the very day I landed from Hollyhead in Wales by ship called Straener I recall.
I recommend you to visit Sugar Loaf, which is not a high mountain, or rather just a hill of 300 or 400 metres. It would be defenitely a very good excursion to go with your beloved.
Apart from that I visited every nuke and cranny deep inside Ireland, but not Rathlin Island. For example, Currick-on-Barrow, which is a destination I took a bus at random. I never forget the scene of Saltee Islands from the hill of the village.
Limerick was very secular city. Driver's license in any country is valid. Belfast was still very dangerous those days, I think situations are greatly changed. I used mostly B&B for accomodation, I recommend staying the ones 'recommended by sightseeing ministry', otherwise it might not be comfortable. Hitchhiking is lawful, but I had no courage to do so. And one thing to add. Wherever I were, the wind was very strong. I visited Drogheda, Kinsale, where Irish were defeated by English completely. Thinking back the bygone days, I was just overwhelmed.

Between Art and Porn
Journal Entry: Mon Feb 20, 2006, 11:20 AM
I visited artistic nude section first off. As a healthy male, I've got lots of porn book in my room. I use it when I want to sexually excite myself, I only use them for this particular purposes. On the other hands, I rarely visit porn site. In the Internet, I use mainly for reading and wrinting journals and comments.
In the first place, it might be hard for us to draw the line between art and porn, if I were not sexually aroused by them I could say they are not porns. In order to appreciate art, we'd better see lots of nude pictures, after seeing more than one hundred, we usually start appreciating them from artistic point of view. There's no need to be sexy but all we have to think is whether they've got balance in art. So indeed taken away all the obstacles we have in our short term desire, there's a big wall between art and porn.

Luckily enough, I was able to get the same handlename here as that of others. It is more important than I previously thought. If I were unable to get the same handlename somewhere, I would not write journals probably. Extension or continuation of identity is thus important.

Shouldn't we say that the worth of our journals is equall to the sum of scores and replies? The score of our comments are affected by moderations, oftentimes they were decided in arbitrary basis, on the other hands the score of our journals are decided automatically by computer without bias and favour, personal preferences, etc.

Infringement Of The Right Of The Dead
Infringement Of The Right Of The Dead
2006.02.17 4:02
Death means a stop of life, those who are dead don't exist any more. We often start to infringe the right of the dead immediately after their death. Their death is interpretted in any way at the convenience of the living.
When someone is dead, the most crucial point is to judge whether he was killed or killed himself, if he killed himself, any those who are alive won't harm, so even if the circumstances as to the death of one person raises doubt about the cause of the death, all alives are so keen to attribute to nobody but him for the cause of their death. The right of the dead was completely infringed, but no one alive is harmed. Thus nobody's eager to raise the quesition as to their death.
Such an infringement of the right of the dead has been occurred a lot of times. But since no one but him -the dead will oppose such idea, no one alive raise the question.

Many years ago tabacco was only sold in tabacconist's shop, usually they were located at the corner of the cross and with narrow window only adults could buy the portion. Because of the current trend of deregulation or just a consistent development of commercialism, now many people can get access to tabaccos. But announcement only encourages the young to know tabacco is sold in a premises. This is not an encouragement of keeping away from smoking, but a different and another intricate way to show tabbaco is sold in a shop.
Besides, first off anyone can get access to tabacco through automatic vending machine outside the shop. I think simply to show or display the warning about the harm of tabacco or some form of age restriction is fairly acceptable, but they ought not to announce such an explicit principle repeatedly ( roughly once in twenty minutes ), such an anouncement only arouses the excessive interset among minors. This is another form of advertisement.
These types of subliminal advertisement was once used a lot of times in a telly commercial. We used to have lots of tabacco commercial message, and at the end of the commercial message, they always added the phrase ' Be careful of excessive smoking'. This expression was rather ambiguous. If they said ' Be careful not to smoke too much' it was acceptable, but they just said ' Be careful to smoke too much' here the function of 'too' was rather ambiguous.
You see these types of message that hides real intention can be seen in many areas. Be careful to see all these messages. Or Not to see..

February Small Spring
This is a journal about late Masako Ito publicly known as Kisaragi Koharu.
She was born on Feb/19/1956, and died on Dec/19/2000. She was 44 at the time of her death. The cause of her death was Hypothalamus haemorrhage. She had a history of diet disorder in her 20s, the weight just before her death was believed to be less than 30kg, anyway..
Apparently she was a shinning star of our times. She was five years senior to me, and known to me as one of distinguished writer/commentator of play and playwright herself.
I noticed her talent long (4 or 5 years) before her death. Of course I regret her too early death, the feeling was not only for me.
5 years have passed after she passed away, nothing changed in Japan's cultural scene so far. We have no geniuses at the same time at least in the field of play.

Apollo and Dionysian archetype was first raised in 'The Birth Of Tragedy'
The notion of Overman was first raised in 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra'
Master and Slave morality, probably in 'The Genealogy Of Morals'
Other important works are 'Beyond Good And Evil', 'In Wagner's Case', 'Anti-Christ', 'Ecce Homo'. Vast Left draft was edited as 'The Will To Power', which is also worth reading. 'Dawn' is less worthy.
For reference purposes, 'Untimely Thought' and 'Human, All Too Human'.

I read Descartes, Spinoza, F.Bacon, J.J.Rousseau, because I found them beneficial to read. I didn't read Pascal, Marcus Aurelius, Leibniz, La Rochefoucauld.
I read Derrida but didn't read Wittgenstein. These are just a result of my personal preference. Again what is important is not which books we read but what we were able to get from our previous reading. It doesn't matter whatever the books we read.
In my early tweneties, of course I was able to get many things from my friends, besides from my reading. At that time we had no chances to talk to through the Internet. Now we've got more media than twenty years ago. Reading a book is just a part of it, still less reading the works of one particular thinker is.
Apart from that, reading Nietzsche was a dialogue with myself. Nietzsche just showed the multiplex of thought, I learned many different views from the reflections out of this multiplex.

I don't know how famous Yukio Mishima is in Western world. But of course here in Japan, he is one of the most famous writers. He committed harakiri at age 45 at the headquarters of Self Defence Force in 1970.
At age 45, Nietzsche lost his sanity and went into labyrinth of schizophrenia for the next ten years.
As the moment of my 45th anniversary of birth will approach, I feel fear. Since I've been told too many times that I am already in insanity.( Believe me, many Japanese people have been thinking I am already mad as early as ten or something because of my extremely early development in language skills)
Whatever the reason I have been called to be so, I have to get over the age 45.
In my case, insanity has been always beside me through out my life, I have to overwhelm the insanity, otherwise I will be overwhelmed by it.

In 1970, I was still at age 9. I didn't know anything about him till we had a shocking news with military uniform, with headband he was making a speach at the headquarter of Self Defence Force in Tokyo. Later at age 14, I started reading his novel, 'The Sound Of Tidal Wave' simply because it was dramatised in a movie and became very popular among Japanese young including us like middle school students. It was a love story between the young.
I was impressed in not the story of his novel, the story was rather boring but the way he described, immediately after I read this novel I understood he is not a novelist but a poet, and a distinguished poet. I started reading his novels one after another, 'The Spring Too Long', 'A Forest Full Of Flowers', 'A Boy Who Writes A Poem', ' Fellow', 'Tabacco', 'Excerpts From Philosophical Diary By Murderers', 'A Million Yen Baked Rice Candy', 'Worrying About A Country', 'Pyrotechnic or Chrysanthemum ( I'm not sure the title but it was about 100 victims of Chinese under Japanese occupation )', 'The Golden Pavillion', 'Confession Of the Mask',' The Beast's Play', 'Thirst For Love', 'The Cateract Sunk'. I read 7 middle sized novels and 20 short stories from age 14 to 15, just for two years. I didn't read all of his novels, though, I recommend 'Excerpts From Philosophical Diary By Murderers' and ' Confession Of the Mask'.
The Confession Of the Mask is widely regarded as his best novel, but it's not a novel as such. It is a chronicle of his private life since his birth. Here's the list of his books [amazon.com] in amazon.com. His last 5 novels were a series of five books which are 'Spring Snow', 'The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With The Sea', 'The Decay Of The Angel', 'Runnaway Horses', 'The Temple Of Dawn', all were written based on the thought of samsara and all are boring, we don't have to read.
I was enchanted with reading his novels for two years to the extreme, although I only read half of his all novels, I think it was enough.
My most recommended reading on his writing is 'Excerpts From Philosophical Diary By Murderers', this is written at age 18. This volume is 10 pages or something but very excellent work, you would probably find it in a collection of short stories.
Do you know of any especially good translators?
For example, I wrote my prose 'The Eve' at age 17 in Japanese first, then many years later I myself translated it into English, so my writing is able to be regarded as being written both in Japanese and English. I think unless he himself translated his works into English, true translation is hard. If you could enjoy his works, I am really glad.

Basically from the tradition based on Christianity, killing himself has been strongly denied in Western culture, which itself is a very good thing. Japanese people tend to think light of their value of life, because they think too highly of the culture of shame, I think.

I am sad to see just too many Japanese famous writers killed themselves for various reasons. Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Dazai Osamu, Mishima Yukio, Kawabata Yasunari, Ariyoshi Sawako, in the case of Western writers, only Sappho( I am not sure), Hemmingway, (probably) Camus, anyway very few writers committed this most heinous crime.
At age 45, Mishima Yukio cut his belly by Japanese sword at the headquater of Self Defence Force. He was an extremely talented writer, not only him but in other examples, Japan's elitests are vulnerable to reality. I am glad I was not an elite.

Oh really? I didn't know that. It might be hard for two different cities to hold summer and winter Olympics in one year respectively since we've got many attendants around the globe. One Olympic year must be too busy for many countries to prepare for them. Economically speaking, many cities want to hold Olympics regardless of whether they are cities in developing countries or advanced countries, because it will bring lots of advantage to the cities.
I hope it won't be held every year like winter Olympics, spring, summer, and autumn Olympics.

Exactly. Seppuku is described as 'self-determination' in Japanese terminology, which itself is very strange, and has long been believed to be related to the purification of soul, but actually it is nothing but a denial of self-existence. Many warrior class people used to do it when they were ashamed of some misconduct or wrongdoing against their master. It was till recently that this act was thought to be the ultimate way to take responsibility for their wrongdoing.
On the other hands, kamikaze has different meaning, which is thought to be an ultimate form of self-sacrifice, to serve their lives to save the lives of their tribes. Only after Western view on value of life was adopted, we can hardly see such heinous acts anymore fortunately.

Olympics are supposed to be held in every four year. Some ice skate players are also bicycle race player, they appeared in Athens two years ago. How about holding two Olympics -winter and summer in one year. That makes Olympics held every four year. Olympics ought to be held every four year, therefore it's valuable.

To tell the truth, I am heartbroken.
One month ago, around last Christmas, she -my African girl-friend sent me a email saying good-bye. These farewell letter was not just two or three times, indeed she had sent me many times. Every times she sent me, I just repeatedly asked her to keep our relationship, and she replied OK. During two years accompaniment, we both had learned how hard for us to keep our relationship -where we live- we live in distance, distance in location, race, age, hobby, etc.
So I admit our love just ended, and what I am suffered from is not our experience, but a lack of object of love in my life. Luckily enough, I found a new girl-friend just one week after I received her email. I succeeded to be able to forget her by finding another new girl-friend immediately though.
A lack of object of love in my life is one of my big themes.

So I admit our love just ended, and what I am suffered from is not our experience, but a lack of object of love in my life. Luckily enough, I found a new girl-friend just one week after I received her email. I succeeded to be able to forget her by finding another new girl-friend immediately though.
A lack of object of love in my life is one of my big themes.

If I were told what my profession is, immediately I would reply that I am a writer, then if I were asked when I compose, I would answer almost all portions are formed while I am working, but there're some cases I can compose while I'm in a sleep.
Normally I don't think while I'm writing, but I usually transcript what I conceived in my mind.

Back in my twenties, we'd had a foreign student from the Philipines, nomally we didn't have any students from the Philipines, basically because of the economic gap, few people could come and stay, but his father was a famous doctor back in his country, so he was able to come. He and I were not on good terms with one another, so I generalised like Filipino is like him.
At age 31, I got married to my first love - she's a Filipina, and we went to the Philipines and stayed there for a while, naturally I'd got a number of Filipino friends, my fixed idea about Filipino was totally changed.
Again back in my twenties, while I was travelling across the USA, near Washington D.C. I saw an Asian guy in a greyhound bus. From the way he behaved, from the ambience he gave off, I thouhgt he must be a Japanese, so I asked him whether he is Japanese. The moment he said he's Korean, I thought I was not supposed to talk to him, since I had a fixed idea about Korean at that time. But we talked a lot and he let me stay in his appartment for 6 days, after I encountered him my idea was totally changed.

Mike, go home. Mike goes home. Since there are two meanings here, we need to define verbs, one is for order, and the other is for ordinary.
But how about these, -He goes home, since 'he' is used as the third person, we don't have to use -es to define as ordinary sentence. He go home/He goes home both means the same.
We use "isn't/ aren't/ don't/ doesn't/ hasn't/ haven't" according to the subject we used, but "ain't" can replace all these negations, is "ain't" enough to use instead? If you think "ain't" is a bad word, just 'not' will be replaced for this word.
You see the most logical word order might be like 'He not go to the zoo.', the negation word 'not' has to be placed before verb so like 'I not have written journals for two days since I was busy.' 'I have' 'I haven't ' are ambiguous, 'not' has to be placed before verb.

The Secret Of 42
When I just saw the number 42 in part of the nickname 'Marxist Hacker 42', I didn't bear it in my mind so firmly, of course I wondered what the number 42 is. I thought he would be a president at age 42. And when I read his analysis -it's life, universe, and everything, I never thought it as it is.
After I came across other slashdotters who use the number 42 in their nickname as well-Krach42, I still had kept on not correlating this number to something meaningful, but at the same time I had no idea about the number.
Through many reading of journals of other users, I just noticed the number is from the book called 'Hitchhiker's Guide To Galaxies', but I was unable to know what the background of this number.
Tonight I acted to wipe away the ambiguity I've been held as to the meaning of the figure. I was able to know many possible explanations by reading Wikipedia articles, all were interestig, however, as the author himself confessed, there seemed no profound meaning in itself.
Try just picking out the random figure, and try explaining however you think it's true. You are sure to find many explanations. It is needless to say this journal does not mean to underestimate the value of their journals. I just wanted to know the secret of 42.

I thought about the cases of fauna of plants, animals and bacteria in both the Amazon and deserts. I can assume similar conclusion on human fauna here.
Chinese, Americans are semi-single dominant language group or people in the world, occupying large plain in the continent, which is suitable for living by a large number of people.
Geographically complex areas like Caucasus, Balkan, Central Asia and a rim of Russia are occupied by many peoples with small population each.
In talking about language group, the distinction is more apparent. Indo-European and Chinese are two major language groups with huge population, there are so many other languages with as many peoples.

There were the original six nations. While every tribe and villiage had it's own dialect due to a lack of mass communication, those dialects came from a very small number of original starting points. Ainu in Japan and my own ancestor's Kwakiutal-T'Chinook-Klickitat (Nation, Subgroup, Tribe) language contain some of the same roots- as one would expect for Northern Pacific Natives. Lahkota Souix share some of the same roots with the Alloquin, who share some roots with the native Laplander tounge in Europe and with Danish- probably due to Erik the Red's visit ~1000CE. Apache have their own tounge, as do the Cherokee- and Seminole. Navaho is related to Oxcali in Mexico- part of the Mezcalero group in the desert south, the Aztec empire- which is also related to Mayan and Incan.

No doubt that here in East Asia the most dominant language is Chinese with population of over 1.3 billion, about 10 times as large as that of this tiny island, and Japanese language is definitely correlated to Korean, Mongolian, central Asian Turkey. Ainu is thought to be one of subdivision of this language group diversified along the rim of very large language group-Chinese.
So, the language of your ancester and that of Japanese along with Ainu are correlated back in thousands of years ago, but because of the domination of Chinese language here, all tribes had to move to the edge of the continent.
Japanese language has no universality, like me who prefer using English will increase more here.[ Parent ]

I think you're refering to the proposed Altaic languages [wikipedia.org]. It's important to note that unlike evolution this actually *is* contested by linguists, and not generally accepted.It's generally widely considered that Ainu is unrelated to Japanese, and while it has been postulated by a number of people that Japanese and Korean are related, it has not been proved at all.Japanese and Korean remain to this day classified as isolation languages, and are generally accepted to have no living relative languages today. It is possible that they were related so far back that we are unable to characterize or prove the relation, but they have certainly not been definitively proven to be related. [ Parent ]

Apart from the superficial resemblance in lots of loan words from China, Korean and Japanese languages are different in their basic terms, but happened to be similar in syntax -how to order the words, both languages would be agglutinative, not reflexive. They both use post position instead of preposition, so when it comes to superficial syntax, the similarlity of two languages are apparent.
But that similarlity doesn't tell at all that two languages have one common parent language long long ago.
As to the superficial similarity in syntax, English and Chinese are astonishingly similar. But nobody claims that two languages are derived from one common parent language. Two languages -English &Chinese happened to aquire similar syntax because their syntax is based on more logical order than others. The more the number of the speaker of the languages increase, the more they are likely to aquire more logical syntax. Logic is based on mathematics, inclusion within a concept, exclusion from the concept are strictly followed by mathematical order, there's no room for others to raise doubt in them.
Latin is more inflective than English, English is more like Chinese analytic, yet Latin and English have two common parent language. Despite many similarities, Korean and Japanese are two different, isolated languages as Basque or Ainu, proposed Altaic language family is illusory.[ Parent ]

Only recently have I read about Sprachbuende (pl. of Sprachbund) Now that I know about it, Japanese and Korean fit far better under that explanation header than having them in genetic relationship. Doesn't change the matter that many people still insist that Japanese and Korean must have some common ancestor somewhere.As to the superficial similarity in syntax, English and Chinese are astonishingly similar.

Their syntax is no more or less based on logical order than any other language. I don't even know how you could have come up with such idea, unless you're one of those "one language can be superior to another" wackos.I don't know how you can claim English to be based more on logical order than say, Japanese. Let's just compare one single facet, English: tons of irregular verbs, Japanese: one, which they don't really consider a verb.In fact, it can be shown that English has a most similar grammar to most creoles, and thus it is a far more basic, and rudimentary language than most others.

I agree any language is based on some grammatical order. Of course there's a grammer. I am saying English and Chinses are much more based upon gramatically logical order than Japanese. For example, in English you say 'This is not a pen'. Probably the most logical order must be 'This not is a pen.', since 'is' has to be negated beforehand.
In Japanese we say 'This a pen is not.' This verbal expression is against our logical order of conception. 'A', 'pen', 'is' have to be negated beforehand. Gramatically speaking many order of words are possible, but logics is based on a natural sequence of order of things or objects, incidents. So I said ther's no room for anyone to raise doubt in them.
thus it is a far more basic, and rudimentary language than most others.
English is easy to learn for non-native speakers like me because it is more simple and fundamental than other languages like Japanese, German, French, etc. Latin languages leave many paradigm changes in which English has already lost most of all. Thus I said English is no more reflexive (I mean inflexive), English is more analytical means there's no distinguished paradigm change in it, which is very similar to analytical language like Chinese. For non-native speakers the distinction of is/am/are/ doesn't matter, I be/You be/ He be/ all are fine.[ Parent ]

If we take for example the ordering of prepositional phrases, in English we have Place-Manner-Time (I will go to the store (place) with my friend (manner) tomorrow (time)), but in both German and Japanese it is Time-Manner-Place (Ich gehe morgen (time) mit meinem Freund (manner) zum Geschaft (place)), and (watashi wa ashita (time) tomodachi to (manner) sakeya ni (place) ikimasu.) Who is to say which is a more logical order? In each language a standard has been dictated, and to deviate makes it sound weird, and it makes it confusing.English is easy to learn for non-native speakers like me because it is more simple and fundamental than other languages like Japanese, German, French, etc.Right, because it's practically a creole, and thus has very simplified syntax. It's all analytical, and not synthetic. This doesn't make English any more superior in except that it is simple to pick up essentially "broken English" but to truely grasp and understand the hojillion different word orders that exist in English and their slight variations of meaning... takes a lifetime.Latin languages leave many paradigm changes in which English has already lost most of all. Thus I said English is no more reflexive (I mean inflexive), English is more analytical means there's no distinguished paradigm change in it, which is very similar to analytical language like Chinese. For non-native speakers the distinction of is/am/are/ doesn't matter, I be/You be/ He be/ all are fine.Correct, but this inflection comes at a simplification and a variety which is not expressable in English. English lacks any reasonable way to make topicative sentences. German and Latin with their casing provide the ability to shift word order to make something else more important, and express the topic of the sentence. "Den Ball habe ich dir gegeben." Thus the only thing that can be done in English is to placce an emphasis upon the word you wish to make the topic, but this just doesn't do it justice: (I gave you *the ball*.)This analytical nature yields ease of speech in some cases, but diminishes other capacities. Every language has made a choice in this manner. They promote one grammatical form over another, and in that they gain something, but at the very same moment, they lose something also.There exists no rightfully placed "fundamental logical order" of language. Your assertion cannot be upheld by anything except an appeal to common sense. [ Parent ]

Since I started working second job on 21st of December last year, I could only take two holidays -3rd and 9th of January. Tomorrow is the day off for the first time in eleven days. Indeed I am exhausted. I've been taking notes to write journals here and the notes count about 10 already. Though I've got to keep on working almost every day till 4th of February, I will have a relatively not so busy week next week. I will write down my journals here from the draft that was taken down in my notebook already through next week.
Hah, Should I feel glad I am busy?

Appropriate hours of working makes me tough, but apparently 13 days, 10 days, 12 days consecutive working makes me discouraging.
Appropriate working hours don't give me enough money to sustain my life. Hah, should I feel glad I work too much?

The idea isn't bad, if you enjoy your work. The question is whether your exhaustion comes with a sense of satisfaction.

I'm just engaging in some mindless optimism, hoping that anyone can find something in their work besides a pay cheque. Better to find happiness in what you have than hope for something that may never come, I say, but then again my working life has never been dull (not necessarily lucrative, though).

As To Mr Fujita
Tornado Fujita Scale Altered

Slightly on topic, but I must add that Mr Fujita is from same high school with me. When I was in high school, once we had had lecture from him. I think I can recall waht he had repeatedly said -when you found an object of interest, just keep on pursuing it. He had said he did it. He repeated that he did it several times in a lecture. That would probably make him known to the world.

Style-Sheet Change

Thanks a lot. I don't know what they are talking about by using the terms like Safari, ajax, let alone what browser is. So really I have no idea.
At least three people have contributed style-sheet hacks, and I'll look at them and make them available
That's what editor said, I will wait and see. But if you know how to change, will you let me know. I've got I, B edit keys, seems mine is not Safari.

What Is Browser?

With the fancy editor disabled, I have no problem so far as to composing. I could see I, B in the edit field, but I had no idea how to operate them.
What 'browser' am I using? First of all, I have no idea what 'browser' means in computer. I am not well versed in computer. But if I can change the colour of style sheet etc by manipulating something, will you please tell me the way?
Anyway I will wait and see. If I can choose a template from two or three options, that'll be fine.
And one more... Could you please tell me how to read archives in new Technocrat.net articles. Now we can only see latest articles of ten or something. --

Water In Desert II
Re:Then again...(Score:1)

I like concise expression like this, but I add the explanation.
In the desert where water is scarce, people are generally eager to get water, so naturally they tend to spend much money just for water. Water will be sold much more expensive in the desert than other areas. So all we have to do in a society is to try to sell water in the desert as much as we can so that we can make a lot of money. This is what we have to learn from the society.
On the other hands, it is not a easy task for us to acquire knowledge in a university. It needs endurance, endeavour, perseverance, patience, constant effort. It is something like we try to get water in the desert. But only those who can get water from the desert are eligible to give it to people in the desert. That was not just sell &buy relations in it. We need benevolence in it in the first place. Money comes afterwards, it is merely a result of good will.

The Role Of University

Let me start with my personal experience in the university. I never had a part time job in my school days. Even just one time, never. If I were asked what I was doing, I can't help but reply that I was studying and reading a book and writing a thesis, that was all what I was doing.
But my case is very different from the case of other students. Many students had a part-time job, and enjoying their holidays with their intimate friend. Some student naturally started to have a romantic relationship with their boy or girl friends. I didn't believe any of them were studying hard. Only those who wanted to go to the graduate school or study abroad were eager to study in the university. Me? Throughout 4 years of my school days, I only studied, did nothing other than study. So I learned the world through a book first. In fact my life kept on like this till age 30.
I guess your opinion forms a majority of our society. But if we were in the university, I recommend young people that they'd better spend hours in their study and not outside the study. Then after they graduated from the university, they ought to start learning from experience in a society. That's my point.
