New coach

After the FIFA World Cup 2010, I didn't have a chance to watch football games on TV or at the stadium. JFA(Japan Football Association) decided new coach for Japan national team. New coach is Alberto Zaccheroni. I didn't know him much, but I believe he can lead Japan National team to better team.

Thank you

Powerful meating

On Sunday, I joined my laboratory's alumni event. It's the first time to hold such event in my laboratory, and I could meet and talk with many old boys. Also, I could organize the event with senior person. Or I should say I just helped him.

Anyway, I could talk with these people and I felt there are many powerful people there. They are doing many things, they are so powerful and active. I could get the power from them. And I thought again that I should become more powerful and active person!

Thank you.

Norwegian wood


Well, I'm a big fun of Haruki Murakami. I've read most of his novels. Especially, I like "Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World".

Anyway, his book "Norwegian wood" will become cinema and I found a news that about the cinema. According to that news, the cinema "Norwegian wood" unveiled at Venice Film Festival.

The cinema will be on screen in December in Japan.

I'm really looking forward to watch the cinema! I can't wait it!!

Thank you.

The hottest Summer ever


It's September but it's still like a midsummer. It's really hot! Because of really strong high-pressure system in the Pacific Ocean, the typhoon cannot attack central part of Japan.

Yesterday, Japan Meteorological Agency announced that the average temperature in this summer (June to August) marked highest in 61 of 154 observing points. They started their observation in 1898. So, the average temperature of this summer is the highest in at least 112 years. Wow, can you believe that?

Anyway, this summer's average temperature is 1.64 degrees higher than average summer's one. In Kanto area, it was 1.9 degrees higher than average year. I understood why I felt it's really hot this summer is! I hope cool fall will come to us very very soon.

Thank you.

Will the Japanese PM change again?

Since last summer, the Democratic Party of Japan is the ruling political party here in Japan. That means the leader of the Democratic Party of Japan is the Prime Minister of Japan. So, Naoto Kan is the Prime Minister of Japan now.

Naoto Kan have been at his position since this June. He is at his position for almost 3 months. Today the Democratic Party of Japan started to accept the candidacy for the party leadership that will hold on 14th September. Of course, the Prime Minister Naoto Kan declared his candidacy, but Ichiro Ozawa the former secretary general of the Democratic Party of Japan, also declared his candidacy. He resigned secretary general over a fund scandal in this June. But he came back and now he declared his candidacy for President of the Democratic Party of Japan.

Ichiro Ozawa has strong leadership and influence in the Democratic Party of Japan, but most of Japanese don't want him to become the Prime Minister of Japan. According to some opinion poll, most of Japanese people don't want Ichiro Ozawa to become the Prime Minister of Japan. And I agree with this opinion. Also, I think, it's really crazy if the Prime Minister of Japan will change again. I don't want to see the third Prime Minister of Japan in 2010.

Anyway, I don't have voting right for that... About 350,000 people have the voting right. The breakout of 350,000 are 412 of member of the diet (belonging to DPJ), 2382 of local authority representative (belonging to DPJ) and about 340,000 of DPJ supporters. But the election will hold in point system, so members of the diet have the largest part of the election.

Thank you.
