Aikido… En direct du Japon. Depuis maintenant 18 mois, je m’entraine 3 ou 4 fois par semaine à l’Aikido. C’est un art martial fascinant qui vise à controler un adversaire sans violence. Pour y arriver, nous devons developper l’écoute de notre corps et arriver à se synchroniser avec l’énergie de l’adversaire. Lors de mon séjour au Japon, j’ai bien l’intention de visiter des dojos et cet avant-goût me sera très utile. Comme l’an dernier, l’expérience fût très enrichissante et me servira d&rsquo...La très b...

The Government and Me. There is clearly an important role for federal government; anarchy is not an option. The federal government should do the following:.

Reflection at the End of the Day. Random thoughts often coalesce at the end of long days . here you will find my random thoughts, whenever the mood strikes me. Tuesday, November 23, 2010. About 8 weeks ago, I was at a conference in Budapest, Hungary. Each day, there was a two-hour time frame for lunch and one evening there was a group activity. These small windows allowed me to get out for walks and see a bit of this charming city (cities? I was chuckling when I found the obelisk just outside the church.

Reflection at the End of the Day: The death of English has been exaggerated greatly
http://jimcrobinson.blogspot.com/2010/09/death-of-english-has-been-exaggerated.html
Reflection at the End of the Day. Random thoughts often coalesce at the end of long days . here you will find my random thoughts, whenever the mood strikes me. Sunday, September 26, 2010. The death of English has been exaggerated greatly. I have had a sneaking suspicion that, over the next 10 years, as the Chinese emerge as the number one global economy, that English will disappear as the language of business and travel. After this week, I have had second thoughts. Which dialect should you learn? So, I c...

Reflection at the End of the Day. Random thoughts often coalesce at the end of long days . here you will find my random thoughts, whenever the mood strikes me. Tuesday, November 10, 2009. I have gotten quite fed up with most of the media outlets, especially the visual ones. Points:. It seems that most of the time the news media gets it wrong in the first several days of covering any story. Each outlet has its own group of talking heads that it pays to give opinions. Many experts are just wrong. The train...

Given the importance of rivers, moats and ditches as a means of defence, bridges were of course a necessity. A variety of methods and materials were utilised to span the gaps. As with any obstacle, one should build a bridge and get over it. ( O )/. For the cars he spots in Japan. Muza-chan's Gate to Japan. Rekishi no Tabi's Flickr-stream.

Japanese Castle Explorer - Namako kabe walls
http://www.japanese-castle-explorer.com/namako_wall.html
Is a common sight when visiting older sections of many of Japans cities and towns. Certainly they are stylish but they also serve a practical purpose. The tiles and plaster-filled interstices help protect the wall by allowing it to better shed moisture. The wall gets its name from the sea cucumber (Namako - 海鼠), presumably due to the similarly-contoured, plaster ridges that border the tiles. Either that or the sausage-like sea creatures were forced to work as labourers in their construction. Daniel is an...

Japanese Castle Explorer - Sashiki Castle - 佐敷城
http://www.japanese-castle-explorer.com/castle_profile.html?name=Sashiki
Is classified as a mountain castle. And is located in Kumamoto Prefecture. During the pre-modern age, it found itself within the borders of Higo Province. It is associated with the Nawa, Sagara, Katō clans. Dates in use: 13? The sturdy condition of the foundations. It is a compact site, so it actually shouldn't take more that 30 minutes to explore. Despite the castle's smallness, it is one I'd highly recommend if you're making your way between Kumamoto and Kagoshima. Google Map Views (グーグルマップ). The Shima...

Japanese Castle Explorer - Stone-throwing windows

Could be loosed upon the enemy. Possibly the most identifiable style of stone throwing window. It features prominently on Himeji. S main tower and turrets, Matsumoto. S main tower and many of Japan's reconstructed castles. They can be found on corners or, between the corners, on flat wall. They resemble the boxes that contain window shutters, and that is exactly what Tobuku means. Check out Kokura castle. Hidden ishiotoshi - 隠石落. I've highlighted the 2nd-floor Hakamagoshi-style chutes of Matsue castle.
