After her hidden business carrier came out, she has hidden herself from the media exposure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why do Japanese media make her carrier in to a big deal? There are things to be announced other than her hidden carrier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is Japanese media trying to bring down Emiko Tanaka to point out that the new political power isn’t any better than Japanese Liberal Democratic party that allowed 3 frequent retirement of the prime minister? If the Japanese media can be so critical to such a tribal thing, why didn’t they do so during the last political power? If the Japanese media is going to act like the justice, they need announce information from the politically liberal points of view, which appears to me that they’re on the Liberal Democratic Party.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I want Emiko Tanaka to do, is go out and face the media and say, “Is something wrong with my carrier?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What she done in the past doesn’t matter, she didn’t make a big crime or anything. What matter is, what she is going to do from now on as a politician. She should never quite, and all she needs to do is try her best no matter what Japanese media writes about her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Japanese people are not stupid. We have eyes. We will pick the representatives on our own. We need no unfair mass media that points our decisions like a mistake. New political power hasn’t even started yet. I hate Japanese mass media that is searching for tribal fault to pick on.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4017006662769130843-6681390943647487251?l=fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/feeds/6681390943647487251/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/09/poor-nude-politician.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/6681390943647487251'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/6681390943647487251'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/09/poor-nude-politician.html' title='Poor Nude Politician'/><author><name>NaNa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10222204239659894980</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqnjmA2NknI/AAAAAAAACSs/sMMpPzdk8Dg/s72-c/profile_img.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017006662769130843.post-922523203264989401</id><published>2009-09-11T13:11:00.003+09:00</published><updated>2009-09-11T13:24:38.867+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Facts about Japan: Culture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Facts about Japan: News'/><title type='text'>Japanese Nude Politician Past Arrested: Fun Facts about Japan</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqnOEwoOG-I/AAAAAAAACSM/SLPiErqqjrw/s1600-h/tnr0909091044003-n1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 132px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqnOEwoOG-I/AAAAAAAACSM/SLPiErqqjrw/s200/tnr0909091044003-n1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380057811039165410" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqnOFbuVJ_I/AAAAAAAACSU/yPWEmFhOzIs/s1600-h/tnr0909091044003-p3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqnOFbuVJ_I/AAAAAAAACSU/yPWEmFhOzIs/s200/tnr0909091044003-p3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380057822607517682" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Emiko Tanaka, a new politician of Japanese Democratic Party.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Emiko Tanaka is now in the limelight as a politician for the close fight with the Japanese former prime minister, for being pretty, and for hiding the past business carrier as a nude model, and a love scene actress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11th September 2009, another hidden carrier came out. It turned out that she was past attested in Egypt for climbing the pyramid during her junior college years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I understand, we do something stupid when we are young. I’m sure she has repented.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Japanese media is so critic about the new political power, as if they are trying to bring them down. They make trivial things in to such a big deal. To me, it seems like they are trying to innate bad impression of Democratic Party in to people’s mind, which sounds possible, for 60 years of dictation of Liberal Democratic Party. Member of the Liberal Democratic Party has strong connection with power.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4017006662769130843-922523203264989401?l=fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/feeds/922523203264989401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/09/japanese-nude-politician-past-arrested.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/922523203264989401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/922523203264989401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/09/japanese-nude-politician-past-arrested.html' title='Japanese Nude Politician Past Arrested: Fun Facts about Japan'/><author><name>NaNa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10222204239659894980</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqnOEwoOG-I/AAAAAAAACSM/SLPiErqqjrw/s72-c/tnr0909091044003-n1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017006662769130843.post-7372462102526782217</id><published>2009-09-10T10:31:00.004+09:00</published><updated>2009-09-11T13:26:00.345+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Facts about Japan: Culture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Facts about Japan: News'/><title type='text'>Nude Politician: Fun Facts about Japan</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Nude model becomes a Politician.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a funny facts about Japan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqhXq7KzWgI/AAAAAAAACRo/rwCw01wCHSA/s1600-h/tnr0909091044003-n1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 132px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqhXq7KzWgI/AAAAAAAACRo/rwCw01wCHSA/s200/tnr0909091044003-n1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379646149843180034" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqhXrPWvLjI/AAAAAAAACRw/62q89shkbuA/s1600-h/tnr0909091044003-p3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqhXrPWvLjI/AAAAAAAACRw/62q89shkbuA/s200/tnr0909091044003-p3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379646155261947442" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;31st August, there was a Lower House election in Japan.&lt;br /&gt;Mieko Tanaka is a Japanese freshman female politician who belongs to the Democratic Party of Japan. In this election, she fought against Japanese former Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori; a politician of the Liberal Democratic Party. They fought for the second an electoral district of Ishikawa prefecture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yoshiro Mori won the election, but Mieko Tanaka was only 4469 vote behind. This is an astonishing result for a new face that went against former Prime Minister. Mieko Tanaka lost the election, but she was able to become a member of the House of Councilors by the proportional representation system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s the problem. After she joined the House of Councilors, her business carrier as a nude model came out in the media. This carrier was not announced on her campaign profile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I you were the citizen, would you vote for a nude model?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Media says that she was not just a nude model, but also a writer of a costume play sex service, and also played love scene in a movie called Yaju and Isunboshi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If she was a person with good sense, I think people would vote for her, but she didn’t tell it to the citizen. I think it’s not fair.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://news.livedoor.com/article/detail/4340619/"&gt;resource article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4017006662769130843-7372462102526782217?l=fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/feeds/7372462102526782217/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/09/nude-politician-fun-facts-about-japan.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/7372462102526782217'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/7372462102526782217'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/09/nude-politician-fun-facts-about-japan.html' title='Nude Politician: Fun Facts about Japan'/><author><name>NaNa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10222204239659894980</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SqhXq7KzWgI/AAAAAAAACRo/rwCw01wCHSA/s72-c/tnr0909091044003-n1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017006662769130843.post-2575373893257199560</id><published>2009-09-08T09:40:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2009-09-11T13:26:08.178+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Fact of Japan-Pets'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Facts about Japan: Culture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Facts about Japan: News'/><title type='text'>Cat Paw Dance Grand Prix: Fun Facts about Japan</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Facts about Japan: Cat Paw Dance Grand Prix&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sorry for not updating Fan Facts about Japan.

Evaluation on Dragon Quest IX is a big controversy over net in Japan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What brought such a controversy?&lt;br /&gt;One possible reason is the postpone of release. Dragon Quest IX was supposed to be released in 2007, but post postponed onto October 2008, but again it was postponed to March 2009, and again postponed 11th July 2009. So it was postponed fore times, 2007 to October 2008, to March 2009, July 2009. These postpone seem to have made the fans disappointed and raise expectation at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At each postpone, there were system changes from the first announce. At first, it was announced that the game system will be action RPG and playable with friends on wii, but it was changed to battle style RPG and only can played wireless with friends which means that friends must stay gathered.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My personal conclusion, the game is crap. The expectations of the fans were too big, so it appealed crap. But first of all, as you can see from the postpone, the project plan was a crap. Sound like the company just wanted to release game because they wanted to make news and money. That’s why the plan and schedule were overlaid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://gigazine.net/index.php?/news/comments/20090713_dq9_matome/"&gt;Resource Article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4017006662769130843-8614238834055999749?l=fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/feeds/8614238834055999749/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/07/played-dragon-quest-ix-fun-facts-about.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/8614238834055999749'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/8614238834055999749'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/07/played-dragon-quest-ix-fun-facts-about.html' title='Played Dragon Quest IX?: Fun Facts about Japan'/><author><name>NaNa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10222204239659894980</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SlvfmA-HJ4I/AAAAAAAABm0/mFYWkwiRapo/s72-c/dq9_picture.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017006662769130843.post-1589760527774306727</id><published>2009-07-10T09:49:00.002+09:00</published><updated>2009-09-11T13:28:18.236+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Facts about Japan: Culture'/><title type='text'>What an artist: Fun Facts about Japan</title><content type='html'>Here is a fun fact about Japan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a picture of what Japanese call AA.

That is the product of Mitsubishi Pencil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://uniball.com/?mid=133&amp;amp;pid=10"&gt;Mitsubishi Pencil&lt;/a&gt; released a new mechanical pencil March 2008. And that pencil have sold 3000,000 mechanical pencil within a year. This is a great hit in the market of stationary. Market of stationary is a matured market. Every thing needed is launched and have enough variety in this market. What is more, Japan is now facing the problem of declining birthrate and the stationary market is influenced by this, so that the market are estimated to become smaller and smaller. But Mitsubishi pencil made success in this field. Why?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*foot note&lt;br /&gt;Japanese kids tend to get crazy about stationary until the age of 15. I used to buy new pens and mechanical pencil at least once a month to find the best pencil that fits me. And many school girls like to collect colorful pens to make their note book pretty. Is this a fun facts about Japan for you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The mechanical pencil that brought Mitsubishi pencil a success is Kurutoga.&lt;br /&gt;What is so great about this mechanical pencil is that it has 3 special gears inside so the lid turns 360 degrees around, every time placed on the paper. By turning the lid around, it will force you to use different side of the lid each time, and prevents lids from leaning on one side. Does this make sense? I bet it doesn’t. It’s probably better for you to go visit the web site.&lt;br /&gt;Here is the link &lt;a href="http://www.mpuni.co.jp/product/category/sharp_pen/kurutoga/index.html"&gt;Kurutoga&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is so funny about this news is that Japanese merchandise maker are too particular about small things and put all of their technology in to it. I never cared about lids. Is that so important?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mpuni.co.jp/product/category/sharp_pen/kurutoga/index.html"&gt;Kurutoga&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://uniball.com/?mid=133&amp;amp;pid=10"&gt;Mitsubishi Pencil&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://zasshi.news.yahoo.co.jp/article?a=20090630-00000301-president-bus_all"&gt;Resourcer Article&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4017006662769130843-2199430876582854564?l=fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/feeds/2199430876582854564/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/07/how-much-does-stationary-sales-in-your.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/2199430876582854564'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/2199430876582854564'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/07/how-much-does-stationary-sales-in-your.html' title='How much does stationary sales in your country?: Fun Facts about Japan'/><author><name>NaNa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10222204239659894980</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SkrNf886x-I/AAAAAAAABUQ/zazH1eR-ej8/s72-c/20090630-00000301-president-bus_all-view-000.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017006662769130843.post-8107163127939769268</id><published>2009-06-30T10:42:00.003+09:00</published><updated>2009-09-11T13:31:42.308+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fun Facts about Japan: News'/><title type='text'>Real Testujin 28 go?: Fun Facts about Japan</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SkltrXIUC8I/AAAAAAAABR0/AV3iZkSz1tU/s1600-h/20090629-00000593-san-soci-view-000.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;

Although every thing in the manga isn't true, it helps me alot to understand Japanese history. When I learned Japanese history in school, it was very heard to remember all the names and what they done.  I remember that it was hard knowing where in Japan the historical events happened because they use old names of the places and countries in Japan. I couldn't link the old names and the names today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So may be learning with illustration may help.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, yeah, read Hana no Keiji if you like Samurai and slaughtering. I recomend it, this is the manga to learn Samutai spirit.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4017006662769130843-363414048925674313?l=fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/feeds/363414048925674313/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/06/zodiac-in-to-anime-girls-fun-facts.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/363414048925674313'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4017006662769130843/posts/default/363414048925674313'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fun-facts-japan.blogspot.com/2009/06/zodiac-in-to-anime-girls-fun-facts.html' title='Zodiac in to an Anime girls?: Fun Facts about Japan'/><author><name>NaNa</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10222204239659894980</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SixrmYIOGWI/AAAAAAAAAkg/yhMOE_OnJek/s72-c/1244034951.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4017006662769130843.post-3192700761939065266</id><published>2009-06-05T13:36:00.005+09:00</published><updated>2009-09-11T13:33:55.759+09:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Free screen saver'/><title type='text'>Want cool screen saver for free?: Fun Facts about Japan</title><content type='html'>Sony released a cool screen saver for FREE.&lt;br /&gt;The screen saver searches images related to the keyword you type.&lt;br /&gt;For example, if you put Anime as a keyword, then it will go and find images relating Anime.&lt;br /&gt;It's really cool so try it ounce.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is how to Download.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;STEP1&lt;br /&gt;Go to this website &lt;a href="http://www.sony.jp/bd/ss/"&gt;SONY BluRay Screen Saver&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;STEP2&lt;br /&gt;Click the Download button at the lower left corner&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SiihP38WyVI/AAAAAAAAAj4/9rLJEax72s4/s1600-h/sony%E3%81%AE%E3%82%B3%E3%83%94%E3%83%BC.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 118px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SiihP38WyVI/AAAAAAAAAj4/9rLJEax72s4/s200/sony%E3%81%AE%E3%82%B3%E3%83%94%E3%83%BC.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343698251962304850" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;STEP3&lt;br /&gt;Scroll the terms of use to the bottom.

In this fiesta, a Origami club presented an amazing Origami(the picture bellow). I love Japanese because they put effort on such a small thing and make a big establishment. I think this is the characteristic of Japanese. We aren't that open and dinamic but we like to put effort in one thing in deapth. I feel that is why we have such a high technology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You wont believe it, but this dragon is made from a piece of paper. I can't believe it!&lt;br /&gt;Here is a video I found of You Tube.&lt;br /&gt;This is a introductory of a Japanese Origami Artist Satoshi Kamitani.&lt;br /&gt;Little bit a bout Satoshi Kamitani.&lt;br /&gt;Born 1981, stated Origami when he was three. Japanese kids learn Origami in pre school, but most people forget how to fold it, but most people remember how to hold paper Crane. Satoshi stated folding Origami in his idea and stated to make his own way of folding, that's is called "choufukuzatukei"; meaning the very complicated type.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whant Satoshi's Origami Book?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="344" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kXcnAhaZCJ8&amp;amp;hl=ja&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;rel=0"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kXcnAhaZCJ8&amp;amp;hl=ja&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.origamihouse.jp/book/original/kamiya/kamiya.html"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 144px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VZcvxUvYG7g/SiX4rmtgs3I/AAAAAAAAAaQ/o3YVuJ_k2pw/s200/kamiya_h.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5342949960954458994" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a video on You Tube.

Rush houris the mourning and evening when salary man goes to work and come home. On May 24th there was a number of people who uses train and their work transportation announced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most used Subway in Tokyo is Touzai line, and the number of people in a day is 1,325,000. Isn't is amazing? 1,325,000 can be a hole population of some other couturiers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Name of Tokyo Subway, and number of people of a day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1st Touzai line  1,325,000&lt;br /&gt;2nd Hibiya line  1,135,000&lt;br /&gt;3rd Chiyoda line 1,117,000&lt;br /&gt;4th Marunouch line  1,110,000&lt;br /&gt;5th Ginza line 1,073,000&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tokyo Rail Map in English.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow, I live in a suburb bus trains are crowded in a rush time.

Taiyaki is a Japanese sweets that puts been jam in fish shaped pancake.&lt;br /&gt;Fish shaped is the point, it makes it really Japanese because we are basically fish eating people. The fish is bream. Bream is considered a very good happiness.

But I bet the original beam jam filling is the best.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most succeeding colorful Taikyaki shop sell 1000 of them each day. One piece will cost USD 1 to 1.50.  Seems like a good business.  It won't cost much to make a peice. They are made of flower egg water and filling.  Also the point of this business is that it don't take space.
