Magnetic hybrid motorbike unveiled in Japan 
A Japanese vehicle manufacturer unveiled the prototype of a new electric motorbike carrying a hybrid magnetic motor, which can run almost noiselessly up to 180 kilometres (112 miles) on one charge. Tokyo-based Axle Corporation says that the battery of the next-generation electric vehicle motorbike can be charged at home, in the same way as a cellular phone. It takes a little over 6 hours to fully charge the battery, and the vehicle's maximum speed is capable of reaching 150 kilometres per hour (93 miles per hour).
The company says the futuristic motorbike enjoys high energy efficiency thanks to a state-of-the-art magnetic motor which is a hybrid between a electromagnet and a permanent magnet. The new motor, called SUMO, short for "super motor," is housed inside the bike's rear wheel. The manufacture says the new motor is seven-times more cost efficient than gas-powered scooters.
Daisuke Ito, a professional racer who test rode the EV-X7 prototype, said it could potentially replace machines we now see in motor races. "I just feel that in the near future, we'll be seeing these kinds of electric motorbikes running all around town. And when that happens, conventional vehicles could disappear from motor racing, too, and well be competing only in electric vehicles."

Nude Festival - Japan 
February 2006
For most of the year, Kounoniya is a peaceful place. But in winter, religious ritual joins with drunken delirium to create one of Japan's most extraordinary sights -- the Nude Festival.
In temperatures close to zero, a designated 'Spirit Man' is stripped and beaten by the crowd. The ritual, which dates back over a thousand years, is meant to absorb the city's punishment and brings good luck. As one participant admits: "It's more important than my wife."

A day in the life in Japan (Winter) 
This was a video I shot and put together to show to the fam and friends a few years back illustrating an average day teaching English in Japan.
It all takes place in the city of Oita, about a 90 minute flight south west of Tokyo, on Kyushu island.
This is LONG, about 37 minutes, but will show what teaching English overseas, particularly in Japan, is like.
Lots of folks have asked how one can get over to Japan to teach English. One fantastic way(with a B.A. of any variety) is JET: http://www.jetprogramme.org/
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to message me.

School Bullies - Japan 
Feb 1996
"A lot of children crack up under the pressure and there are a lot of negative things that happen like bullying."
The Hiranos' son committed suicide after he was bullied at a new school. The school authorities made no comment. Satoru Ikeda, teacher, thinks that many students have lost their identity because of a harsh education system in Japan which does not tolerate individuality. Rosalind Brown, English teacher, was shocked by the sight of young children wearing only a pair of shorts. Even in cold weather the children stand in the playground in rows and rub each other's back to keep warm. If children walk around from February to November with a bare belly they win a certificate. Inside the class room they stand and recite English phrases in unison. To get into a better high school and a good university, children also attend evening classes. They enjoy themselves afterwards by going to McDonalds for a coke and doing their homework together. Noriko Nagasaki opposes the education system and says that most parents are afraid to protest in case it affects their children's' exam results.

Click more info for lyrics.
Lovers in Japan:
Lovers keep on the road your on Runners until the race is run Soldiers you've got to soldier on Sometimes even right is wrong
They are turning my head out To see what I'm all about Keeping my head down To see what it feels like now But I have no doubt One day, were gonna get out
Tonight, maybe we're gonna run Dreamin' of the Osaka sun Ohh, ohh, ohhh Dreamin' of when the morning comes
They are turning my head out To see what I'm all about Keeping my head down To see what it feels like now But I have no doubt One day, the sun will come out
Reign Of Love:
Reign of love
I can't let go
To the sea I offer
This heavy load
Locusts will
Lift me up
I'm just a prisoner
In a reign of love
Locusts will
Let us stop
I wish I'd spoken
To the reign of love
Reign of love
By the church, we're waiting
Reign of love
My knees go praying
How I wish
I'd spoken up
Or we'd be carried
In the reign of love

Giant Robot Dinosaurs from Japan 
http://www.FreeScienceLectures.com
The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology in Japan has created some incredible new robot/animatronic dinosaurs that can actually walk around.
This is useful for children education where they can see how the dinosaurs lived and what their real dimensions and motions were!
