Heroes, Great Powers, and Miracles


Mr. Nelson Mandela was elected as president and took office when he was 75 in 1994 after release from almost 30 years of imprisonment in 1990. However he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize when he was 74 in 1992.

Mr. Barack Obama was elected as president and took office when he was 47 in 2009 after 12 years of lecturing at the law school of the Chicago University. However he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize when he was 47 in 2009.

Of course, there are many people who have seen the glory of the God through the two if not in the two.

To the period from Mr. Mandela to Mr. Obama, one era might be assigned. But, what will come after this Mandela-Obama era?　The Era of More Miracles?



SECTION I: National Prayer Breakfast

A few days ago, lawmaker Mr. Taro Kono of the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan flew to Washington D.C. to attend the 58th National Prayer Breakfast where about 3,000 people all over America and the world gathered and prayed.
(http://www.taro.org/2010/02/post-710.php)

He was assigned the No. 7 Table among hundreds. At the table beside his sat House Speaker Ms. Nancy Pelosi with whom Mr. Kono talked friendly awhile, since his father was ex-Lower House Speaker of the Japanese Parliament. But the one who overwhelmingly impressed him was Secretary Ms. Hillary Clinton rather than President Mr. Barack Obama.

--------
In February of 1994, the speaker here was Mother Teresa. She gave, as everyone who remembers that occasion will certainly recall, a strong address against abortion. And then she asked to see me. And I thought, "Oh, dear." (Laughter.) And after the breakfast, we went behind that curtain and we sat on folding chairs, and I remember being struck by how small she was and how powerful her hands were, despite her size, and that she was wearing sandals in February in Washington. (Laughter.)
...
Finally, the moment came: June, 1995, and the Mother Teresa Home for Infant Children opened. She flew in from Kolkata to attend the opening, and like a happy child, she gripped my arm and led me around, looking at the bassinets and the pretty painted colors on the wall, and just beaming about what this meant for children and their futures.

A few years later, I attended her funeral in Kolkata, where I saw presidents and prime ministers, royalty and street beggars, pay her homage. And after the service, her successor, Sister Nirmala, the leader of the Missionaries of Charity, invited me to come to the Mother House. I was deeply touched. When I arrived, I realized I was one of only a very few outsiders. And I was directed into a whitewashed room where the casket had already arrived. And we stood around with the nuns, with the candles on the walls flickering, and prayed for this extraordinary woman. And then Sister Nirmala asked me to offer a prayer. I felt both inadequate and deeply honored, just as I do today. And in the tradition of prayer breakfast speakers, let me share a few matters that reflect how I came on my own faith journey, and how I think about the responsibilities that President Obama and his Administration and our government face today.
...
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2010/02/04/hillary_clinton_keynote_transcript_the_national_prayer_breakfast_100176.html
--------

So, I wrote several days ago that it was impressive to see a woman wearing sandals on the cold business street around Tokyo.

Anyway, the combination of Ms. Hillary Clinton and Mother Teresa could overwhelm a future candidate of the prime minister of Japan.

I may overwhelm the future Pope, if the God so wishes.

In addition, if one guest pays 1,000 dollars, the 3,000 audience in total can donate $3 million to Haiti.


SECTION II: G2, G2, and G2

Japan and the U.S. as G2 are now going to enter the state of weariness.

The U.S. and China as G2 are now going to enter the time of trial.

Japan and China as G2 are now going to enter the area of calm.

From a global point of view, G2 of Japan and China could be more supported by peoples of the world. It is mainly to suppress the occurrence of another War on Terror and another Lehman Shock.

Yet, as a triangle stability equation:
U.S. unemployment rate = Japan's unemployment rate + China's city unemployment rate

If the dollar loses the key currency status, the equation will have to be altered.

Yet, it is still very unlikely that Japanese leaders and Chinese leaders get together to hold a meeting where the U.S. unemployment level is decided.

Finally, China must start to stop its military expansion nobody from Mongolia, South Korea, Taiwan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, and India welcomes.

Why will not rich people try to save the poor? This is a question economists cannot answer.

If all the rich people in the world start to save the poor by pouring into this great economic project all the wealth they have, all the poor in the world will be saved. Accordingly, you need no economists.

Conversely, economics is based on acceptance of evil of the human mind or the mind of rich people neglecting the poor dying in poverty. If they cannot accept it, they will surely fight against the evil, which means to stop a study of economics that virtually sustains the rich-man centric economic system.

However, this teaching of the God, save the poor by stop oneself from being rich, is really hard to accept. Accordingly, not so many people share the view of EEE Reporter so far. In my feeling, all over the world just 30 or so people seem to take this view seriously. It is so, since it was in Haiti that 200,000 people died by the Act of God...

However, this is not an elite course for another Mr. Obama and another Mr. Mandela only.




Joh 2:6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

Joh 2:7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

Joh 2:8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

Joh 2:9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

Joh 2:10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

Joh 2:11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

"for out of thee shall come a Governor"

WORK OF SPECULATIVE MIND


One thing I had wondered before the historic realization of the first African American president of the U.S. is how those who believed the 9/11 conspiracy theory would react in the era of President Mr. Barack Obama.

Nobody influential seems to have asked President Mr. Obama to review the 9/11 conspiracy theory with a focus on hidden involvement of the Bush Administration in the large-scale plot.

Logically, to those who still believe the 9/11 conspiracy theory, President Mr. Obama is a member of those who are truly responsible for the 9/11 Terror. Conversely, nobody now would join those who still blame the Bush Administration for their conspiracy on the 9/11 Terror.

But, I suspect that there are some who were associated with Wall Street or the WTC and knew the terror beforehand, since they were so close to those involved in the plot if so remotely.

This is a simple feeling of my own. And those who knew the 9/11 terror beforehand in New York might be also involved in the 2008 Lehman Shock or the subprime loan scandal.

However, I do not think that Prime Minister Mr. Yukio Hatoyam of Japan secretly exercised his administrative power to save DPJ Secretary General Mr. Ichiro Ozawa from possible arrest and also to force sumo wrestling grand champion Asa-Shoryu to retire.

The point at issue is an influence of such conspiracy theories or actual incidents on the peoples. Who will they choose in future after the era of President Mr. Obama and Prime Minister Mr. Hatoyama?


SECTION I: LOST DECADE OF JAPAN - TRUTH

It is the land prices in Japan that were a major focal issue of the Japanese bubble around 1990.

----------
Japan Credit Perspectives
Koyo Ozeki | August 2008

...
Phase 2: Prolonged Land Price Decline Sparks Sharp Rise in Bad Debt (1995–96)

Land prices continued their dramatic plunge in the mid-1990s (Chart 5). By our estimates, Japanese banks had around 50 trillion yen (US$450 billion) in non-performing loans immediately after the burst of the bubble in 1993, which shot up to nearly 100 trillion yen (US$910 billion) by 1996, along with the loss rate (Chart 6). As a result, financial institutions found themselves in a rapidly deteriorating position, and a succession of bankruptcies among relatively large regional banks in 1995 signaled an impending crisis in the financial system.


http://www.pimco.com/LeftNav/Global+Markets/Japan+Credit+Perspectives/2008/Japan+Credit+Perspectives+Aug+2008.htm
----------
The land prices of Japan soared five times higher from 1983 taking nine years before the lost decade, and then plummeted down to one tenth of the peak toward 2005 taking 13 years during the lost decade.

(It is during the Koizumi Administration that the land price indexes truly hit the bottom in Japan.)

Mountains, hills, and forests account for almost 70% of the Japanese national land which is almost equal to the size of the California state.

Accordingly, 120 million people mostly live in an area of 30% of California's. All the Japanese people competing with 300 million Americans and 1.2 billion Chinese mostly live and work just in an area of 30% of California's, which itself is a kind of miracle.

There was a myth of the land price in Japan: the land price never falls. But, it did so drastically as you see in the above figure.

To understand significance of this phenomenon, you must understand the nature, culture, traditions, and reality of the Japanese society, since business in Japan is also deeply linked with people's paradigm on the land as a resource of wealth.

It is also linked with the recent arguments about the global warming and nature conservation.

The study on the lost decade of Japan must not be solely based on financial matters.

As for Wall Street and the City, religious backgrounds also tell very truth of their globalized financial swindles, which I will discuss later.


SECTION II: Solar System Tonight

The solar system alignment tonight is as follows:


http://www.faustweb.net/solaris/

Mars, the Earth, and the Sun with Venus on the opposite side are almost on a straight line.

This is a miracle I saw today. The Mars in the east sky and the Venus in the west sky were clearly seen from my residential area while a jet plane was flying above the Venus in the dusk dark.

Though I could not see, Jupiter and Saturn are also almost on one straight line over the Sun.



This might suggest that it is a very special season for mankind.

*** *** *** ***


Now, it is 23:55. Maybe I have lived today enough on this planet.



Mat 2:3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

Mat 2:4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

Mat 2:5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,

Mat 2:6 And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.

"as the Spirit gave them utterance"

NOT FOR HAPPINESS BUT FOR MONEY?


There are about 30,000 people in Japan nowadays who die alone, while living alone, and whose dead bodies are discovered days, weeks, and months later.

In older days, people mostly died in their house surrounded by their family members.

Without any kind of deeply rooted religion, the Japanese society must have been disrupted through the extreme material success in its indescribable competition with Europe and America. Followers China and India must learn some lessons from Japan.

Yet, living under somebody who has power of life or death of you is not a comfortable life. In that case, indeed, you need revolution or religion.



SECTION I: TOYOTA

i) Three years ago, a Japanese traveler to America came back to Japan. He made some comments on his finding in America to his friend, "I was surprised to see that Toyota cars used in America are so different from, or so poorer than, those we use here in Japan. A model name may be the same, but if you have a look under the hood, you will see quite different structure and components."

ii) Toyota officials said they first learned of this problem through reports of sticking pedals in vehicles in England and Ireland in April or May 2009.
(http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/03/business/global/03toyota.html?hpw)

iii) Last December officials of the U.S. Department of Transportation came to Japan to visit Toyota Motor Corporation with its headquarters in Nagoya City, 300 km west of Tokyo. But, Toyota's president Mr. Toyoda is yet to come up to Tokyo to explain the situation to the Japanese Minister of Transport.

iv) At the speed of 100 Km per hour, it is easy to measure a 10% change in the speed to control the brake by a computer chip, since it just has to perform 10 Km (6 miles) per hour control. But, at the speed of 20 Km per hour, it needs 2 Km (1.2 miles) per hour control. To run and control your car exactly at 2 Km per hour is not easy for you and a computer chip mounted inside Prius. At this speed (change) level, expected very smooth, automatic switching from hydraulic braking to regenerating braking, a unique feature for Prius, looks like failing once in 100,000 times, especially on a slippery road.

My recommendation to Toyota is to enter the agriculture market. They should buy up agriculture lands abandoned in local regions of Japan due to too much industrialization. Such cultivation-abandoned areas account for 10% of all the farming lands in Japan. Toyota executives should start to learn respect for humanity on the ground under the sun.


SECTION II: Honda and Mitsubishi

Mitsubishi Motor Corporation has realized a surplus for the first time in the past five quarters. The Japanese car maker was once rebuked for failure to announce its recalls. But now, owing to robust sales in China and Thailand, it came back to a track.

Honda Motor Co., Ltd. is to report a $3 billion surplus at the end of March 2010, since it has succeeded in $5.5 billion cost cuts. In addition, owing to robust sales in Thailand and India, it came back to a track.

However, both the Japanese car manufacturers look like feeling no pains in reducing payrolls.

They had better start to learn respect for humanity on the ground under the sun.


SECTION III: Historically Equal

For the Japanese people, equality of mankind literally means that there is no difference in the mind and heat among mankind.

But, historically, for Europeans the equality of mankind means that there is no difference in the mind and heart between Catholics and Protestants.

And, historically, for European Americans the equality of mankind means that there is no difference in the mind and heart between Catholics, Protestants, and Judaists.

It was made possible, since one tribe of Christian Europeans did not mind or doubt Judaism so much as others. And, they became the mainstream in America, by chance, later. The unique tribe is called the Anglo-Saxons.

As a consequence, Judaists have become the most beneficiary of the principle of equality of mankind, especially in the United States.

Accordingly, Judaists have had three options since the British dominance in the New Continent of North America: the possible return to Jerusalem; the continued status of the diaspora; and the enjoyment of living in America.

It is very symbolical, indeed, that around 1500 both Columbus and Luther emerged while Spain started to completely expel Judaists, though Christopher Columbus was most probably a Judaist pretending to be Christian under the name Christopher.


*** *** *** ***

Sumo wrestling grand champion Asa-Shoryu (Morning Blue Dragon) announced his retirement amid a controversy on his violent behaviors on a civilian, which is the biggest sports news in Japan today. The Mogolian hero had tears gathering in his eyes when asked by a reporter what he was the most proud of, answering his defeating then grand champion Musashi-Maru before his parents watching him in the sumo arena hall years ago.


In Okinawa, human bones of 20,000 years ago were confirmed, the oldest proof of human existence on the Japanese islands.

There is a Japanese sushi chef in Vancouver a cable TV channel presented today. The chef wearing a small, white mustache with a little white hair looked like aged over 50 but cheerfully spoke lively English, offering creative menus leveraging local foodstuff. His joy of being a winner in his career radiating over the counter of a modern sushi bar. It is good to see a man looking happy in his workshop.

However, in this decade, I think I have never sit at a sushi bar, though I often purchase a sushi pack at a supermarket. Fools take sushi at a sushi bar is my opinion. But, at Vancouver, you may.

It is 10:15 p.m. now. I will check some Internet sites before greeting the God.




Act 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

Act 2:5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.

Act 2:6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.

Act 2:7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?

"Son, thy sins be forgiven thee."

CORRECT YOUR OWN MISCONCEPTION


Mr. Ichiro Ozawa, Secretary-General of the Democratic Party of Japan, has escaped arrest and indictment after twice questionings by the Tokyo Public prosecutors.

As the very veteran lawmaker Mr. Ozawa has been so influential on Prime Minister Mr. Yukio Hatoyama, it might be a reasonable showdown, since the charge was on illegal book-keeping of his political fund even if $4 million and more is involved.


SECTION I: Richest 10% to Poorest 10%

According to UNDP's 2009 statistics and Japan's 2004 data, the American rich and the American poor are twice more separated than between the Japanese rich and poor.
COUNTRY.....//......Richest 10% to Poorest 10%
Brazil.....//......40.6
S. Africa.....//......35.1

(http://www2.ttcn.ne.jp/honkawa/4650.html)

Indeed the U.S. looks like a relative to the U.K., while Japan is a kind of akin to Germany.

As indicated by Egypt and Pakistan, Islamic nations need another way of interpretation of analysis results if measured together with America, Europe, and Japan.

Of course, Islamic nations should respect Japan and Germany more than the U.S. and the U.K.

What do you think?


SECTION II: GDP from A.D. 1 to 200X

In reference to data of the World Bank, it is apparent that there have been four empires in the world in these 2000 years in terms of GDP per capita: the Roman Empire, the Dutch Empire, the British Empire, and the American Empire.

(http://www2.ttcn.ne.jp/honkawa/4545.html)

As the pink line indicates the trend of Japan's GDP per person, it is apparent that before 1950 something specific happened in Japan to boost its economy to the Western level ahead of any other Asian nations.

It is American Christian Democracy, which is why I am telling you to hear me instead of economists who cannot create anything economically valuable but goods called economics which could not boost Japan after WWII.

Mar 2:3 And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.

Mar 2:4 And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

Mar 2:5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

"unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem"

(Tokyo, One Fine Day)



WEIGHTING FACTOR OF TRUTH


If you have just 10% more muscle strength effectively activated than others, you can be even a grand "sumo" wrestling champion in Japan.

However, to be a true hero on any street, you have to take at least 10% more compassion to the weak than others.

Otherwise, you are thought to be another gangster with a pride in the 10% more devil's luck of your own even in the sumo community, at a war zone in Afghanistan, or on Wall Street.


SECTION I: LOST DECADE DOUBLED THE RICH

Before the Lehman Shock of September 2008, or for 15 years till 2006, the number of Japanese citizens who earned each $200,000 or more per year doubled.

During a period from 1990 to 2006, the number of Japanese citizens whose annual income was $200,000 or more increased by 100%.

This is another facet of the truth of Japan's Lost Decade.

At the end of 2006, 1.48 million Japanese citizens possessed each $1.2 million or more net assets, up 5.1% during the year.

(http://allabout.co.jp/career/jijiabc/closeup/CU20070723A/)

Even in June 2009, it was reported that there are 1.5 million wealthy people in Japan, while 2.8 million in Asia.

(http://diamond.jp/series/yucasee_money/10015/?page=2)

This is another factor for Japan's difficult economic situations in addition to the well-known factor of cheap-labor/cheap-goods China.

In the past, all the poor Japanese and most of rich Japanese had worked hard along with a shared paradigm of material success. But, during 1990's, the rich and the poor came to have different paradigms: the rich came to have a sinful and selfish view on economy and society, while the poor still continued to trust the old paradigm of prosperity of society as a whole, since everybody belongs to the same Japanese race sharing the the same cultural traditions.

The rich Japanese quickly understood the change in global market as symbolized by China's economic growth and technological advancement as symbolized by the so-called high-tech financial infrastructure on Wall Street.

Since 1990, smart and rich Japanese left the poor Japanese, realizing the potential of China and Wall Street. Smart and rich Japanese decided to continue to be richer in a tie up with Chinese businesses and Wall Street companies, thus neglecting poor and honest Japanese.

This is another facet of the truth of Japan's Lost Decade.

However, it had also happened in America, when American rich men forsaken honest American workers in the manufacturing sector to boost the financial sector and the entertainment sector.

China is from the beginning a society with less love to neighbors.

The challenge Japan must address now is to stop this trend and save the poor Japanese citizens from the rich who are leveraging China and Wall Street while neglecting the poor Japanese.

In this context, the regime change must have happened (suppressing a too-pro American party); irresponsible politicians must have been taught a lesson (suppressing too-pro-Chinese politicians); and highly biased companies must have been corrected (suppressing Toyota?), which is actually going on around Japan today.

If this enterprise bears fruit, the world will follow suit.

No hard-working and law-abiding Asians and Americans have to worry about Japan.


SECTION II: Lincoln

Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865) became a hero as he won the Civil War.

Generals of the Union were incompetent at battles against Confederate troops.

So, Lincoln took up directly command authority along with newly appointed commander Ulysses S. Grant, though he had never learnt the art of war. Lincoln got detailed information at battle fields through newly invented technology telegraph. He also issued detailed orders and instructions back to generals at the front by wire.

It is just like an American President using every telecommunications technology to study situations at the front of Afghanistan in real time and issue every detailed order to troops in Afghanistan to pursue AlQaeda and Mr. Osama bin Laden and capture them all, which however did not happen in the last months of 2001.

Lincoln's experiences as a lawyer and a politician made him the most suitable commander in 1860's very luckily, though it is said that he sometimes made a very cool decision no professional generals would dare to make to certain situations.

Is it that Lincoln was not a respectable hero but a mania for war sending bloody instructions from a telegraph room he so frequently visited, or that the Civil War was so exceptionally cruel as turning a respectable man like Lincoln to a kind of a mania for war?

In summary, the combination of Lincoln and telegraph eventually decided the case in 1865.

(Whole Lotta Love is better than a stereotype of thuggish way to behave...

http://www.just-oldies.com/1970/whole_lotta_love.htm )



Luk 2:1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.

Luk 2:2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

Luk 2:3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

Luk 2:4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

Luk 2:5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

"Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it"

SECTION I: DEMAND AND SUPPLY GAP

How shameless are those who gathered at Davos this year, too!

Mr. Lawrence Summers suggested: "One in five men in the US between 25 and 54 is not working. Even assuming a reasonable recovery, that might only rise to one in seven. In the 1950s, 95% of men had work."

IMF Top Mr. Dominique Strauss-Kahn meant: "It is disappointing to see the lack of discussion by the US with the rest of the world about President Barack Obama's reforms."

Davos does not see the basic situations of demand and supply in the world, production and work force, and power of innovation. Davos tries to find a chance for making big money by manipulating big money.

It is rooted in traditions of Judaists. Judaists did not carry out the Industrial Revolution. Some rich Judaists did not like to work in agriculture fields and manufacturing plants with blood, sweat, and tears if there was any big excuse.

(It is true that there is a well-known, historical context in Christian Europe forced on Judaists as they were segregated into a special zone of a town. Having said so, some rich Judaists still just wanted to make big money by providing financial services for industrialists even after the door to the New World opened up for them where they could have restarted their history as farmers and factory workers of whatever industry which had been interrupted by the Roman conquest of Israel. Instead, they became middle-class citizens living in cities of Germany so dangerously.)

So, Davos is not designed to promote industries and improve living conditions of workers in agricultural lands and factories, especially, of the Christian and Islamic worlds.

However, politicians have to get support from those working in agricultural fields and factories more than from financial sector workers. Accordingly, they can understand the true meaning of the demand and supply gap, the most grave agenda for the economy of the 21st century.

This issue cannot be solved with the Davos mentality which makes so many participants foolish and blind to reality under the financing talks. Davos can create the sinful city Dubai but not another China or India or their industrial sectors.

If the global economy is to be saved, it must leave the Judaist paradigm, as symbolized in Davos, but enter a new Puritan paradigm, in a sense, where the true meaning of the demand and supply gap can be correctly understood.

Indeed, in 1950's there was no demand and supply gap in America, and even unregulated and uncoordinated financial service did not harm economy.

What I want to say is, "Economy to be non-Judaistic; Society to be rather Judaistic or non-hypocritical in America, so that America will not be misled by Davos any more and will not harm the global economy any more!"



SECTION II: POEM

A Judaist American female poet wrote after the Civil War but well before the 20th century:

----------
Crowing of the Red Cock


Across the Eastern sky has flowed

The flicker of a blood-red dawn,

Once more the clarion cock has crowed,

Once more the sword of Christ is drawn.

A million burning rooftrees light

The world-wide path of Israel's flight.



Where is the Hebrew's fatherland?

The folk of Christ is sore bestead;

The Son of Man is bruised and banned,

Nor finds whereon to lay his head.

His cup is gall, his meat is tears,

His passion lasts a thousand years.



Each crime that wakes in man the beast,

Is visited upon his kind.

The lust of mobs, the greed of priest,

The tyranny of kings, combined

To root his seed from earth again,

His record is one cry of pain.



When the long roll of Christian guilt

Against his sires and kin is known,

The flood of tears, the life-blood split,

The agony of ages shown,

What oceans can the stain remove,

From Christian law and Christian love?



Nay, close the book; not now, not here,

The hideous tale of sin narrate,

Reechoing in the martyr's ear,

Even he might nurse revengeful hate,

Even he might turn in wrath sublime,

With blood for blood and crime for crime.



Coward? Not he, who faces death,

Who singly against worlds has fought,

For what? A name he may not breathe,

For liberty of prayer and thought.

The angry sword he will not whet,

His nobler task is -- to forget.

TOYOTA THE FOOL?

As for Toyota, I have been displeased by the company for years.

First, I have one bad memory in business relationship with a Toyota group company.

Second, they have recently chosen a grandson of the virtual founder of the Toyota Group, which is not a good gesture to workers, consumers, taxpayers, voters, and citizens of Japan.

So, I think that Toyota must be taught some lesson.

They might continue stupid business practices and still choose a Toyota family member as their president, but they shall learn something.

Of course, they had better change their business attitudes and their president as soon as possible.

If Toyota does not respect God, it must disappear.

Indeed, it must before taking any more lives on American roads, Chinese roads, Japanese roads, and global roads.
