只見線~是連結日本福島縣會津若松市會津若松站與新潟縣魚沼市小出車站的東日本旅客鐵道(JR東日本)鐵道路線...沿途景色 !
路線位處暴雪地帶,並與國道252號並行。由於國道的其中一段:位於福島、新潟縣境交界的六十里越附近,因冬季積雪量過多而禁止通行,令本線成為了福島縣只見地區及新潟縣魚沼地區間唯一的交通工具。因此,縱使本線業務閑散,並多次被編入廢線的對象,但因為這種特殊的情況,因而獲得了免除廢止的對待。冬季期間會派出除雪車清理車站及路軌上的積雪,而積雪一般都達3公尺或以上的高度。
由會津若鬆起至會津坂下於會津盆地南方作U字型大迂迴,進入山間部,沿屈曲的只見川谷間往上流行駛。田子倉湖附近經六十里越隧道穿過縣境,沿破間川(あぶるまがわ)下行,此破間川和魚野川合流至小出。沿線多為只見川沿岸山村。2008年10月11日日本經濟新聞、NIKKEI PLUS1 選為「紅葉之美鐵道路線十大」的第1位。
只見線有38個車站

Thank you for choosing me as a cover for your wonderful group✨
Like Real Nikkei (日系 ) in Second Life (Opted Out)Cover!
Eric and I visited Nikkei Centre to see the Benefit Concert for Japan's Tsunami Victims presented by the BC Japan Earthquake Relief Fund.
It's been a year and I still can't find words to say, but I just wish people stay strong and smart.
The restaurant is serving Japanese-Peruvian dishes base on local fresh seafood. The scallop here was raw and of finest quality.
the town of Steveston once had a thriving Japanese community, mostly fishermen ...
but then the war came and they were all interned, sent to B.C.'s interior, all their belongings
and land were sold plus their fishing boats ... I can't imagine how they must have suffered.

PT(BR): Na parte da tarde, estive na Nikkei Fest, tradicional festa japonesa em Presidente Prudente, evento muito conhecida na região do oeste paulista.
Normalmente, a festa é repleta de descendentes e simpatizantes da cultura japonesa caracterizados com roupas tradicionais, que realizam diversas apresentações temáticas ao longo dos três dias do evento.
A festa esse ano estava bem movimentada e as possibilidades eram diversas, mas compareci ao local do evento com a intenção de fotografar algum descendente trajando vestimentas típicas. No entanto, durante o tempo em que estive presente, identifiquei poucas pessoas com essas características. Aquelas que estavam devidamente vestidas estavam ocupadas trabalhando na preparação e venda de refeições.
Felizmente, caminhando entre os estandes de venda de produtos orientais espalhados pelo recinto, encontrei a bela Maria Helena (@miihashimoto) trajando um lindo kimono vermelho.
Pedi uma foto dela e ela gentilmente aceitou.
Logo que entrei na festa verifiquei que haviam dois cenários possíveis para fazer as fotos e seguir com a temática japonesa. Uma dentro do ginásio, onde a organização havia montado alguns locais temáticos com árvores de cerejeira floridas, e outro fora desse recinto, onde foram instaladas diversas lanternas japonesas nas cores brancas e vermelhas.
Como o kimono da Maria Helena combinava com as lanternas, optei por fazer as fotos na parte de fora e gostei do resultado!
Maria Helena, muito obrigado por participar. Espero que goste das fotos!

EN: In the afternoon, I was at Nikkei Fest, a traditional Japanese festival in Presidente Prudente, a well-known event in the western region of São Paulo.
Normally, the party is full of descendants and supporters of Japanese culture dressed in traditional clothes, who perform various themed presentations throughout the three days of the event.
The party this year was very busy and there were many possibilities, but I went to the event with the intention of photographing a descendant wearing typical clothing. However, during the time I was present, I identified few people with these characteristics. Those who were properly dressed were busy working on preparing and selling meals.
Fortunately, walking among the stands selling oriental products spread throughout the venue, I found the beautiful Maria Helena (@miihashimoto) wearing a gourgeous red kimono.
I asked for a photo of her and she graciously accepted.
As soon as I entered the party I saw that there were two possible scenarios for taking photos and following the Japanese theme. One inside the gym, where the organization had set up some themed areas with flowering cherry trees, and another outside the gym, where several Japanese lanterns in white and red were installed.
As Maria Helena's kimono matched the lanterns, I chose to take the photos outside and I liked the result!
Maria Helena, thank you very much for participating. I hope you like the photos!

じゃ、なぜ、アメリカで成功したスポーツ選手の一部は、日本へ戻ってこないのか?
イタリアへ嫁いだ日本人女性の旦那様がこう言いました。
「日本はとても清潔で便利だ。24時間、コンビニ、あいてるし」
奥様は一瞬呆れてからこうつけ足しました。
「でも、自分が働くのはいやなんでしょ?」
旦那様は苦笑い。
必要以上に清潔で、細かく、神経を使う。だから、この国は成長しなかったんです。
建物がわかりやすい。海外の建物ってかなりいい加減な作りが多いですよね。
でもこれっていい加減でテキトーというものではなく、重要な箇所はしっかり作られている。
表面上の細かい部分については、「ま、こんなもんじゃん?」っていう具合で、大まかに物事をみんなで進めてゆこうというムードがある。
トイレにいたっては清潔感を保つために、神経を張り巡らせて執拗に清掃する。トイレだけでなく、書類などにも詳細なデータを用意するために、神経がやられ、残業も増える。余分な箇所に気を払っているから、よーく見ると、重要で、肝心なテーマがぽっかり抜けている。
アートでもそう。
葛飾北斎とアンディ・ウォーホルの比較がわかりやすい。北斎は線も配色も非常に繊細だけれども、ウォーホルは大胆な線と配色でインパクトを生んでいる。いずれも同じ芸術作品で、見る側を同じように満足させる。
同じ目的を達成するために、複雑な過程を要するか否か。
日本人の仕事は、いまだに葛飾北斎が美徳されている。
必要以上に細かさを求めるのではなく、良い意味で大雑把でないと企画というのは進まないのです。
以前に他の動画で話しましたが、アーロン・ソーキン脚本のソーシャルネットワーク。facebookの立ち上げ時の話ですが、ヘッドフォンして、ピザを食べながら、長時間ぶっ通しで、ガンガン仕事を進める。
これにかなうわけがない。
もしも、この記事を良しとした場合、日本の安全性、精度等が他国に比べて優秀とした場合、
なぜ、オープンAIが日本から生まれなかったか。なぜ、アップルが日本から生まれなかったか。
それとも、これからオープンAIは生まれるのか。アップルは生まれるのか。
安全な国なら良いアイディアが生まれ、経済は活発になるのか。
戦後の日本は、ハングリー精神に満ちていたから、親父らはがむしゃらに働きつづけた。
そんな中でソニーは生まれたんですよね。車屋さんも。
満腹日本にハングリーな精神は生まれますか?
生まれませんね、絶対に😇
このバブル以降の30年間、変化や転機を望まず、引き続き、バブルの記憶に浸って過ごしてきたのが日本なんですよ。
各種データの兆候が明るくても、偶発的な事件、たとえば戦争のようにささいな引き金で世界の経済は暗転する。
世界全体が底へ沈み、這いあがろうとする時、各国の民度が問われる。
データ以前に、日本人の民度が世界の流れに追いつけていないんです。
よいお年を。😇

From now on # I will host "Lot No.402_".
The work of Leonardo da Vinci who was sleeping.
That is the number when it was put up for auction.
No sign was written on the work.
So this work couldn't conclude that it was his work.
However # as a result of various appraisals # it was exposed to the sun.
A work that no one notices. A work that speaks quietly without a title.
I will continue to strive to provide it to many people in various ways.

U2 - No Line On The Horizon Live in Dublin

Main story
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left # how many times did I depend too much on her # doubt her # envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me # a guy filled with ambiguous unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

This video is an explanation.
I went to Milan in 2005.
At that time # I went from Milan to Venice.
We took Eurostar into the transportation.

あらすじ
大学を目指している北見ケイは、SNS上で、6歳年上のイベントコンパニオン、上村香織に出会う。
上京してきた香織の夢は、有名なアーティストの友達になるためだ。
そのためにはラジオ局のプロデューサー、大沢亮の存在が必要だった。
大沢は、ラジオの生放送中、香織へ語りかける。
「僕には妻子がある。しかし、僕は君に会いたいと思っている」
ケイの同級生で、彼を想っている三條里香は、香織の動向を探っていた。。。。。
本編
人が海へ向かう理由には、二つある。
ひとつは、波打ち際ではしゃぐ子供のように、今の瞬間の海の輝きを楽しむこと。
もうひとつは、その輝きを静かに見据えて、過ぎ去った日々を懐かしむ老人のように記憶の埃を払うこと。
二つは重なり合わないようではあるけれども、たったひとつの意味しか生まない。
再生だ。
明日っていう、曖昧な日を確実なものへと変えてゆくために、自分の存在に向き合う。
それが再生の意味だ。
十八歳だった僕には大切な人がいた。

じゃ、なぜ、アメリカで成功したスポーツ選手の一部は、日本へ戻ってこないのか?
イタリアへ嫁いだ日本人女性の旦那様がこう言いました。
「日本はとても清潔で便利だ。24時間、コンビニ、あいてるし」
奥様は一瞬呆れてからこうつけ足しました。
「でも、自分が働くのはいやなんでしょ?」
旦那様は苦笑い。
必要以上に清潔で、細かく、神経を使う。だから、この国は成長しなかったんです。
建物がわかりやすい。海外の建物ってかなりいい加減な作りが多いですよね。
でもこれっていい加減でテキトーというものではなく、重要な箇所はしっかり作られている。
表面上の細かい部分については、「ま、こんなもんじゃん?」っていう具合で、大まかに物事をみんなで進めてゆこうというムードがある。
トイレにいたっては清潔感を保つために、神経を張り巡らせて執拗に清掃する。トイレだけでなく、書類などにも詳細なデータを用意するために、神経がやられ、残業も増える。余分な箇所に気を払っているから、よーく見ると、重要で、肝心なテーマがぽっかり抜けている。
必要以上に細かさを求めるのではなく、良い意味で大雑把でないと企画というのは進まないのです。
以前に他の動画で話しましたが、アーロン・ソーキン脚本のソーシャルネットワーク。facebookの立ち上げ時の話ですが、ヘッドフォンして、ピザを食べながら、長時間ぶっ通しで、ガンガン仕事を進める。
これにかなうわけがない。
もしも、この記事を良しとした場合、日本の安全性、精度等が他国に比べて優秀とした場合、
なぜ、オープンAIが日本から生まれなかったか。なぜ、アップルが日本から生まれなかったか。
それとも、これからオープンAIは生まれるのか。アップルは生まれるのか。
安全な国なら良いアイディアが生まれ、経済は活発になるのか。
戦後の日本は、ハングリー精神に満ちていたから、親父らはがむしゃらに働きつづけた。
そんな中でソニーは生まれたんですよね。車屋さんも。
満腹日本にハングリーな精神は生まれますか?
生まれませんね、絶対に😇
このバブル以降の30年間、変化や転機を望まず、引き続き、バブルの記憶に浸って過ごしてきたのが日本なんですよ。
各種データの兆候が明るくても、偶発的な事件、たとえば戦争のようにささいな引き金で世界の経済は暗転する。
世界全体が沈んだ時、這いあがろうとする際、各国の民度が問われる。
データ以前に、日本人の民度が世界の流れに追いつけていないんです。
よいお年を。😇

Japanese Americans (日系アメリカ人, Nikkei Amerikajin?) are Americans of Japanese heritage. Japan is a western Pacific Ocean multi-archipelagic nation east of China in Asia. Japanese Americans are a subgroup of East Asian Americans, which is further a subgroup of Asian Americans. Okinawa, a former independent nation, was annexed by Japan in the late nineteenth century. Japanese Americans have historically been among the three largest Asian American communities, but in recent decades have become the sixth largest (at roughly 1,204,205, including those of mixed-race or mixed-ethnicity). In the 2000 census, the largest Japanese American communities were in California with 394,896, Hawaii with 296,674, Washington with 56,210, New York with 45,237, and Illinois with 27,702. Each year, about 7,000 new Japanese immigrants enter United States ports, making up about 4% of immigration from Asia; net migration, however, is significantly lower because some older Japanese Americans have been moving to Japan.
Cultural profile
Generations
Japanese Americans have special names for each of their generations in the United States. The first generation of immigrants, born in Japan or Okinawa before moving to the United States, is called Issei (一世). The second generation is Nisei (二世), third is Sansei (三世), fourth is Yonsei (四世) and fifth is Gosei (五世). The term Nikkei (日系) was coined by Japanese American sociologists and encompasses all of the world's Japanese immigrants across generations.
Languages
Issei and many Nisei speak Japanese or Okinawan in addition to English as a second language. In general, later generations of Japanese Americans speak English as their first language, though some do learn Japanese later as a second language. In Hawaii however, where Nisei are about one-fifth of the whole population, Japanese is a major language, spoken and studied by many of the state's residents across ethnicities. It is taught in private Japanese language schools as early as the second grade. As a courtesy to the large number of Japanese tourists (from Japan), Japanese subtexts are provided on place signs, public transportation, and civic facilities. The Hawaii media market has a few locally produced Japanese language newspapers and magazines, however these are on the verge of dying out, due to a lack of interest on the part of the local (Hawaii-born) Japanese population. Stores that cater to the tourist industry often have Japanese-speaking personnel. To show their allegiance to the U.S., many Niseis and Sanseis intentionally avoided learning Japanese. But as many of the later generations find their identities in both Japan and America, studying Japanese is becoming more popular than it once was.
Education
Japanese American culture places great value on education. Across generations, parents tend to instill their children with a deep value for higher education. As a result of such cultural ambition, math and reading scores on standardized tests often exceed national averages.[citation needed] They fill gifted classrooms and have the largest showing of any ethnic group in nationwide Advanced Placement testing each year.[citation needed]
Most Japanese Americans obtain advanced college degrees. Japanese Americans once again face stereotyping as dominating the sciences in colleges and universities across the United States, while in reality, there is an equal distribution of Japanese Americans across academic disciplines in the arts and humanities in addition to the sciences.
Intermarriage
Before the 1960s, the trend of Japanese Americans marrying partners outside their racial or ethnic group was generally low, as well a great many traditional Issei parents encouraged Nisei to marry only within their ethnic/cultural group and arrangements to purchase and invite picture brides from Japan to relocate and marry Issei or Nisei males was commonplace.[citation needed]
In California and other western states until the end of world war II, there were attempts to make it illegal for Japanese and other Asian Americans to marry whites or Caucasians, but those laws are declared unconstitutional by the US supreme court the same manner like anti-miscegenation laws prevented whites from marrying African-Americans in the 1960s.
According to a 1990 statistical survey by the Japan Society of America, the Sansei or third generations have an estimated 20 to 30 percent out-of-group marriage, while the 4th generation or Yonsei approaches nearly 50 percent. The rate for Japanese women to marry Caucasian and other Asian men is becoming more frequent, but lower rates for Hispanic and American Indian men (although the number of Cherokee Indians in California with Japanese ancestry is much reported), and with African-American men is even smaller.
During the WWII Internment era, the US Executive Order 9066 had an inclusion of orphaned infants with "one drop of Japanese blood" (as explained in a letter by one official) or the order stated anyone at least one eighth Japanese (descended from any intermarriage) lends credence to the argument that the measures were racially motivated, rather than a military necessity.
There were sizable numbers of Korean-Japanese, Chinese-Japanese, Filipino-Japanese, Mexican-Japanese, Native Hawaiian-Japanese and Cherokee-Japanese in California according to the 1940 US census whom were eligible for internment as "Japanese" to indicate the first stage of widespread intermarriage of Japanese Americans, including those who passed as "white" or half-Asian/Caucasian.
Religion
Japanese Americans (commonly) practice a wide range of religions, including Mahayana Buddhism (Jodo Shinshu, Jodo Shu, Nichiren, and Zen forms being most prominent) which is the majority, Shinto, and Christianity. In many ways, due to the longstanding nature of Buddhist and Shinto practices in Japanese society, many of the cultural values and traditions commonly associated with Japanese tradition have been strongly influenced by these religious forms.
A large number of the Japanese American community continue to practice Buddhism in some form, and a number of community traditions and festivals continue to center around Buddhist institutions. For example, one of the most popular community festivals is the annual Obon Festival, which occurs in the summer, and provides an opportunity to reconnect with their customs and traditions and to pass these traditions and customs to the young. These kinds of festivals are most popular in communities with large populations of Japanese Americans, such as in southern California or Hawaiʻi. It should be noted however, that many Japanese people both in and out of Japan are secular as Shinto and Buddhism is most often practiced by rituals such as marriages or funerals, and not through faithful worship, as defines religion for many Americans.
For Japanese American Christians, the church is one of the most important cultural foundations. In California, Hawaiʻi and Washington, congregations can be composed entirely of Japanese Americans. In the rest of the country they tend to be accepted in predominately white churches.
Celebrations
Japanese American celebrations tend to be more sectarian in nature and focus on the community-sharing aspects. An important annual festival for Japanese Americans is the Obon Festival, which happens in July or August of each year. Across the country, Japanese Americans gather on fair grounds, churches and large civic parking lots and commemorate the memory of their ancestors and their families through folk dances and food. Carnival booths are usually set up so Japanese American children have the opportunity to play together.
History
The history of Japanese Americans begins in the mid nineteenth century.

Immigration
People from Japan began migrating to the U.S. in significant numbers following the political, cultural, and social changes stemming from the 1868 Meiji Restoration. Particularly after the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, Japanese immigrants were sought by industrialists to replace the Chinese immigrants. In 1907, the "Gentlemen's Agreement" between the governments of Japan and the U.S. ended immigration of Japanese workers (i.e., men), but permitted the immigration of spouses of Japanese immigrants already in the U.S. The Immigration Act of 1924 banned the immigration of all but a token few Japanese.
The ban on immigration produced unusually well-defined generational groups within the Japanese American community. Initially, there was an immigrant generation, the Issei, and their U.S.-born children, the Nisei. The Issei were exclusively those who had immigrated before 1924. Because no new immigrants were permitted, all Japanese Americans born after 1924 were--by definition--born in the U.S. This generation, the Nisei, became a distinct cohort from the Issei generation in terms of age, citizenship, and English language ability, in addition to the usual generational differences. Institutional and interpersonal racism led many of the Nisei to marry other Nisei, resulting in a third distinct generation of Japanese Americans, the Sansei. Significant Japanese immigration did not occur until the Immigration Act of 1965 ended 40 years of bans against immigration from Japan and other countries.
The Naturalization Act of 1790 restricted naturalized U.S. citizenship to "free white persons," which excluded the Issei from citizenship. As a result, the Issei were unable to vote, and faced additional restrictions such as the inability to own land under many state laws.
Japanese Americans were parties in several important Supreme Court decisions, including Ozawa v. United States (1922) and Korematsu v. United States (1943). Korematsu is the origin of the "strict scrutiny" standard, which is applied, with great controversy, in government considerations of race since the 1989 Adarand Constructors v. Peña decision.
In recent years, immigration from Japan has been more like that from Western Europe: low and usually related to marriages between U.S. citizens and Japanese (usually Japanese women), with some via employment preferences. The number is on average 5 to 10 thousand per year, and is similar to the amount of immigration to the U.S. from Germany. This is in stark contrast to the rest of Asia, where family reunification is the primary impetus for immigration. Japanese Americans also have the oldest demographic structure of any non-white ethnic group in the U.S.; in addition, in the younger generations, due to intermarriage with whites, non-whites, and other Asian groups, part-Japanese are more common than full Japanese, and it appears as if this physical assimilation will continue at a rapid rate.
Internment
During WWII, an estimated 120,000 Japanese Americans and Japanese residing in the United States were forcibly interned in ten different camps across the US, mostly in the west. The internments were based on the race or ancestry rather than activities of the interned. Families, including children, were interned together.
For the most part, the internees remained in the camps until the end of the war, when they left the camps to rebuild their lives in the West Coast. Several Japanese Americans have started lawsuits against the U.S. government regarding what they perceive as a wrongful internment. The lawsuits have dragged on for decades.
World War II Service
Many Japanese Americans served with great distinction during World War II in the American forces. The 442nd Regimental Combat Team/100th Infantry Battalion is one of the most highly decorated unit in U.S. military history. Composed of Japanese Americans, the 442nd/100th fought valiantly in the European Theater. The 522nd Nisei Field Artillery Battalion was one of the first units to liberate the prisoners of the Nazi concentration camp at Dachau. Hawaiʻi Senator Daniel K. Inouye is a veteran of the 442nd. Additionally the Military Intelligence Service consisted of Japanese Americans who served in the Pacific Front.
Redress
In the U.S., the right to redress is defined as a constitutional right, as it is decreed in the First Amendment to the Constitution.
Redress may be defined as follows:
* 1. the setting right of what is wrong: redress of abuses.
* 2. relief from wrong or injury.
* 3. compensation or satisfaction from a wrong or injury.
Reparation is defined as:
* 1. the making of amends for wrong or injury done: reparation for an injustice.
* 2. Usually, reparations. compensation in money, material, labor, etc., payable by a defeated country to another country or to an individual for loss suffered during or as a result of war.
* 3. restoration to good condition.
* 4. repair. (“Legacies of Incarceration,” 2002)
The campaign for redress against internment was launched by Japanese Americans in 1978. The Japanese American Citizens’ League (JACL) asked for three measures to be taken as redress: $25,000 to be awarded to each person who was detained, an apology from Congress acknowledging publicly that the U.S. government had been wrong, and the release of funds to set up an educational foundation for the children of Japanese American families. Under the 2001 budget of the United States, it was also decreed that the ten sites on which the detainee camps were set up are to be preserved as historical landmarks: “places like Manzanar, Tule Lake, Heart Mountain, Topaz, Amache, Jerome, and Rohwer will forever stand as reminders that this nation failed in its most sacred duty to protect its citizens against prejudice, greed, and political expediency” (Tateishi and Yoshino 2000). Each of these concentration camps was surrounded by barbed wire and contained at least ten thousand forced detainees.
Life under United States policies before and after World War II
Like most of the American population, Japanese immigrants came to the U.S. in search of a better life. Some planned to stay and build families here in the states, while others wanted to save money from working stateside to better themselves in the country from which they had come. Before the Attack on Pearl Harbor, Japanese residents experienced a moderate level of hardship that was pretty typical for any minority group at the time.
Farming
Japanese Americans have made significant contributions to the agriculture of the western United States, particularly in California and Hawaii. Nineteenth century Japanese immigrants introduced sophisticated irrigation methods that enabled the cultivation of fruits, vegetables, and flowers on previously marginal lands.
While the Issei (1st generation Japanese Americans) prospered in the early 20th century, most lost their farms during the internment. Although this was the case, Japanese Americans remain involved in these industries today, particularly in southern California and to some extent, Arizona by the areas' year-round agricultural economy, and descendants of Japanese pickers who adapted farming in Oregon and Washington state.
Japanese American detainees irrigated and cultivated lands nearby the World War II internment camps, which were located in desolate spots such as Poston, in the Arizona desert, and Tule Lake, California, at a dry mountain lake bed. Due to their tenacious efforts, these farm lands remain productive today.
Politics
Japanese Americans have shown strong support for candidates in both political parties. Leading up to the 2004 U.S. Presidential Election, Japanese Americans narrowly favored Democrat John Kerry by a 42% to 38% margin over Republican George W. Bush.

Notable individuals
After the Territory of Hawaiʻi's statehood in 1959, Japanese American political empowerment took a step forward with the election of Daniel K. Inouye to Congress. Inouye's success led to the gradual acceptance of Japanese American leadership on the national stage, culminating in the appointments of Eric Shinseki and Norman Y. Mineta, the first Japanese American military chief of staff and federal cabinet secretary, respectively.
Many Japanese Americans have also gained prominence in the arts and sciences. These include Minoru Yamasaki, architect of the World Trade Center, and Ellison Onizuka, the first Asian American astronaut and the mission specialist aboard Challenger at the time of its explosion. Poet laureate of San Francisco Janice Mirikitani has published three volumes of poems. Artist Sueo Serisawa helped establish the California Impressionist style of painting.
Japanese Americans first made an impact in Olympic sports in the late 1940s and in the 1950s. Harold Sakata won a weightlifting silver medal in the 1948 Olympics, while Japanese Americans Tommy Kono (weightlifting), Yoshinobu Oyakawa (100-meter backstroke), and Ford Konno (1500-meter freestyle) each won gold and set Olympic records in the 1952 Olympics. Konno won another gold and silver swimming medal at the same Olympics and added a silver medal in 1956, while Kono set another Olympic weightlifting record in 1956. Also at the 1952 Olympics, Evelyn Kawamoto won two bronze medals in swimming.
More recently, Eric Sato won gold (1988) and bronze (1992) medals in volleyball, while his sister Liane Sato won bronze in the same sport in 1992. Hapa Bryan Clay won the silver medal in the 2004 decathlon and was the sport's 2005 world champion. Apolo Anton Ohno won five Olympic medals in short-track speed skating (two gold) in 2002 and 2006, as well as a world cup championship.
In figure skating, Kristi Yamaguchi won three national championships (one individual, two in pairs), two world titles, and the 1992 Olympic Gold medal. Rena Inoue took first place in the 2004 and 2006 U.S. Figure Skating Championships Pairs competition. Mirai Nagasu won the 2008 U.S. national championship at the age of 14.
In distance running, Miki (Michiko) Gorman won the Boston and New York City marathons twice in the 1970s. A former American record holder at the distance, she is the only woman to win both races twice, and is the only woman to win both marathons in the same year.
In professional sports, Wataru Misaka broke the NBA color barrier in the 1947-48 season, when he played for the New York Knicks. Misaka also played a key role in Utah's NCAA and NIT basketball championships in 1944 and 1947. Lindsey Yamasaki was the first Asian American to play in the WNBA and finished off her NCAA career with the third-highest career 3-pointers at Stanford University.
Hikaru Nakamura became the youngest American ever to earn the titles of National Master (age 10) and International Grandmaster (age 15) in chess. In 2004, at the age of 16, he won the U.S. Chess Championship.
Japanese Americans now anchor TV newscasts in markets all over the country. Notable anchors include Tritia Toyota, Adele Arakawa, David Ono, Kent Ninomiya, and Lori Matsukawa.
George Takei (of Star Trek fame) and Pat Morita (Happy Days) helped pioneer acting roles for Asian Americans while playing secondary roles on the small screen during the 1960s and 1970s. Today, Masi Oka plays a prominent role in the NBC series Heroes and Grant Imahara appears on the Discovery Channel series MythBusters.
Notable Japanese American musicians include singer, actress and Broadway star Pat Suzuki, rapper Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park and Fort Minor, guitarist James Iha of Smashing Pumpkins fame, singer, voice actress and Japanese expatriate Mari Iijima, Shodo Artist, J-Poet, Gravure Idols and BURN Flame Miki Ariyama and famous J-pop superstar Hikaru Utada
A visitor to the Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre takes in the exhibition titled "REGISTERED", a series of colour photographs by Ottawa-based photographer Leslie Hossack that examines places of power and persecution and the experiences of Japanese Canadians living in British Columbia during World War II when they were unjustly registered, rounded up, and removed.

Mi buena amiga Meki de Lima (Perú) me permitió usar esta foto y me contó esto:
"La foto es de la Mamamá de mis medio hermanos. Ella migró al Perú con su esposo desde Japón. La foto es en la chacra en la que vivían apróximadamente en el año 1955. Es Mamamá Rosa Marcelina ó Haruno (como se le conoce en Tokyo), llevando en brazos a su última hija Anamaría. Era un terreno gigante en Chacra Cerro, Puente Piedra. En esa época tenían ahi una granja de pollos que tuvo que parar de funcionar porque cayó un paracaidista sobre la granja y mató a los pollos del susto y el amontone. Luego tuvieron un negocio de flores. Su esposo murió hace poco , pero ella sigue viva en una casa aquí en Lima. Ella es muy linda con sus nietos, bisnietos y cocina buenísimo bocadillos japoneses como Onigiris y sushi!"

My good friend Meki in Lima (Peru) allowed me to use this photo and told me this:
The photo is of the grandmother of my half-siblings. She migrated to the Peru with her husband from Japan. The photo is on the farm which lived approximately in the year 1955. It is great great grandmother Rosa Marcelina or Haruno (as she is known in Tokyo), carrying in her arms her last daughter Anamaria. It was a giant field at Chacra Cerro, Puente Piedra. At that time there had a chicken farm that had to stop work because in it fell a paratrooper on the farm and killed the chickens from fright and the stack. They then had a business of flowers. Her husband died recently, but she is alive in a House here in Lima. She is very cute with her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and terrific cuisine Japanese as Onigiris and sushi snacks!
