I may have to assume a second identity. This occurs to me each day I download e-mail from my server into my e-mail program -- Eudora, btw, love it! I get anywheres between 250 and 1,000 spams a day. Really, I rejoice when it's 250. Imagine that! Happy to get 250 pieces of garbage! My e-mail server's...
Vielleicht nehmen die Leute seine düsteren Prognosen ernster, wenn Sie ein Bild des Professors sehen, der schon vor zwei Jahren vor der Krise in aller Heftigkeit warnte... Im März 2008 - kurz vor dem Zusammenbruch von Bear Sterns - prognostizierte Roubini Verluste von 1 bis 2 Billionen ((bzw. im...
Juhu, es ist Montag, 13. Oktober 2008 und die Kurse steigen wieder. Alles wird gut...Aktien kaufen und reich werden. Nein. (( Das ist meine Meinung. Bilden Sie sich Ihre eigene. Ich bin froh, wenn Sie den Tiefpunkt treffen :) )) Das FOX Business Network hat in den letzten Monaten eine bitterböse...
Ten things I learnt on Sunday... 1. This year's X-Factor is undeniably fixed straight from week one. The generically goodlooking boy with the average voice had a horrible performance but it was the indie girl band who may just be a little too much like Girls Aloud who get voted out. And who makes...
October 08, 2008 23:42 GMT +1 I have been in Paris for four days. Although I am in the most visited city in the world, I am not happy, and though I was not happy in Tokyo, I miss my life there; totally free, doing whatever I wanted, no responsibilities besides my own body. I didn’t pay for...
Buddha Teachings Buddhism is a philosophy of life expounded by Gautama Buddha ("Buddha" means "enlightened one"), who lived and taught in northern Inda in the 6th Century B.C. The Buddha was not a god and the philosophy of Buddhism does not entail any theistic world-view. The teachings of the Buddha...
Talking to some people I realized there's one element of investment banks that doesn't seem to be understood; and come to think of it, no involved party is likely to openly talk about this, so maybe it's no wonder. You know, as you probably have read in papers and on the web, investment banks don't...
It has been a long time coming. The working conditions with my current employer have been unbearable since late last year. Surely there was something better out there...and so there is.

The RoyalClover over at vox was kind enough to share with me some awesome music links from her wealth of indie music knowledge from Canada, so I decided to share a few groups that I also find really fascinating to listen to. I love listening to all kinds of music, ranging from acid jazz,...
We send Umar to a Kinder (it's like a child care, not the real kinder) nearby our house about twice or three time a week. Each time we only send him for about 3 hours because the fee is quite expensive for us. We pay for about 400 yen per hour. Here special price will be given if one of the parents...
アーミッシュの生活を描いてある映画、「目撃者」を見ました。アーミッシュの文化に興味があったからです。 サラの生まれたペンシルベニア州が舞台になっているのも理由の１つでした。 電気も電話も車もＴＶも使わず、労働と祈りが生活の中心である彼らは風変わりにみえますが、彼らからみれば、私達の方が、変わっているのかもしれません。 自分には無理ですが、こういった世界に生きる人たちが幸せそうにみえ、少し憧れました。 We watched the movie ---"Witness" which is about Amish culture this weekend because I am intereste...
Okay it's true one doesn't really need 3 calendars to know what day it is! :P But being that there's amazingly still room on my bedroom walls for 3 poster sized hang ups I just couldn't resist! All 3 of these were released on October 11th (tomorrow here but today in Japan..I hope that makes sense! :...
To me, Hiroyuki Tomita is always the best. But of course there are lots of other gymnasts than him, and some of them are great as well. So, I will write something about them, one by one. Makoto Okiguchi (22) is a specialist on floor excercise and vault. His nickname is "Okkie." He graduated from...

Actually, a couple of people in the Real World have asked me why I haven't been posting anything about my personal life lately. I've responded by saying, "Life? What life?" followed by a long, hollow laugh. But really, there hasn't been a lot happening: and what has been happening in my life, there...
U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson may get an earful Saturday, October 11, 2008, meeting with developing country officials whose economies has been harmed by the global credit crisis. Experts generally praised Paulson's decision, announced Wednesday, to call the meeting of a group of...
I've now been staying with my host family for a couple weeks. They seem like nice people, although I haven't had much in the way of extended conversations with them. I'm not all that talkative most of the time, even in English. My host family is comprised of two parents in their 50s and their son,...
