the paid-for use of Kibo

I picked up JAXA again. They've accepted offers from the public for the paid-for use of Kibo. I read the newspaper this morning repoted that they aimed at the building the nonfree way first because of resisting criticism of much injection of our money.

They should think over how to use it profitably. It's not necessary that they rush to make a paid-for scheme. They also have to show the appropriate themes to use Kibo. Resources, foods and environmental issues seem to be acceptable, I suppose.

Now I can't access the JAXA web site. Probably a lot of people want to see the video of the earth from the moon and are tying to visit the site.

space

Although JAXA, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, has concentrated on the selection of the best catch-phrase writer from the public for the supporting 'Kibo(Japanese Experient Module with ISS) ' , they has postponed the announcement for a month. I've watched their site several times because I had applied for it, so I was very disappointed at seeing that.

Since I saw the planetarium about the Cassini Orbiter with my family, I've read books written about space. My son also has been interested in it, and enjoys to see the TV programs produced by NHK on DVD, which rent from a public library. I've been stunned by the fact that the space has depended on all fortuity. It seems to be so for everything in space is beyond our comprehension.

Those topics attracts me, for example, swing-by(a planet throws away an orbiter), high-technology mounted on Hayabusa (Japanese space probe), the expectation of an existence of a planet by reading the wavelength declination, though I can't understand the mathematical formulas.

I hope my son and daughter have kept been interested in space.

Environmental Protection and pursuit for profit

I saw a leaflet which said 'These boxes for recycle are for our customers only' at the supermarket near my house. I laughed because they confessed very honestly that their effort for recycle was for themselves, not for the earth. Several years has passed since a drug store has taken over there. It is a tiny example that recycle without benefit doesn't suit for pursuit of profit.

I watched TV news broadcasted that the sea around the Miyakejima island has been cleaned during the evacuation. I've had the same impression when I heard 'Only human kind can't live on earth even if the environmental pollution progresses'. If the best way is to vanish us, I feel meaningless of the appeal for the environmental protection.

However, the best way requires the mass concern which moves on for progress. It turns out to be the effective way if we will be able to connect the pursuit for profit, the very human activity, to the environmental protection.

First of all, they should welcome everyone and contrive ways to make money, don't they?

Away electric poles

Japanese towns would look more beautiful if we sweep away all of electric poles. I always feel it strongly when I travel abroad. It's a shame to see that electrical cable webs prevail among towns.

Getting rid of them is necessary for safety. Pavement is so narrow that we don't walk through with umbrella open between a pole and wall. I can find the case examples on Internet. I hope the following case will continue.

I would like the goverment to use the special tax of road for it.

who has his/her own discipline

When the big earthquake in Hanshin district occured 10 years ago, the Swiss rescue team was standed for many hours because of the Japanese goverment's bungle against the emergency.

Some insisted that they should do spralegal action, but they missed the point. It was the politician who was blamed for nonfeasance.

They would be censured if other problem happend by playing off the cuff. We have to notice the consensus that we must obey as a standard in a certain situation. We won't live in our society without it because we regard it as absolute discipline.

Paradoxically speaking, a person who can't notice that has his/her own standard.

They must expiate thier crime

The issue of blood products has manifested itself again.

We should detect the causes and develop preventative measures, trying on penalty of Antisubversive Activities Law if necessary, the problem may be caused by the systematic nonfeasance.

We have the responsibility on politicians because we select them, but bureaucrats are not elected. They must expiate thier crime.

A Dalian bokkstore

I asked him, who was a Chinese member of the same project, to take us to a bookstore in Dalian because I would like to buy children's books for a souvenir. The store was a large building just like a Japanese big bookstore Kinokuniya in Shinjuke, or Maruzen in Umeda, and had a lot of books. They wrapped items not at the chasier but at the special counter, it was the only difference.

I heard there were few books written about Japan in China. Eventually, I didn't checked that because I searched for books for children. I also saw the stack of books written by Jiang Zemin, which a Japanese newspaper reported about it in those days. My guide said that he didn't want to buy it and laughed. Was that a usual attitude in China, I wondered.

Honestly speaking for Chinense economy, ' Does they keep it ? ' is my concern. After checking in a hotel, I couldn't get out of my room because the doorknob inside dropped down. I saw there were tall buildings along the streets and high-tech park area was very wide and clean. On the other hand, people supporsed to be from a country, sat down along the roads.

They said Dalian was the Chinese sightseeing area. I read the articles Lushun restricted area was lessened. I would like to visit again, for sightseeing.
