Dr. Sobakawa Pillow

People were talking about that Blake Edwards passed away.

I googled and I got that who he is.

But it is not big deal for me.


Have you heard "Sobakawa Pillow"?

An acupuncturist Dr. Kazu Watanabe invented it. (click here to see link)

Actually, most people have been using it since 8th century in Japan, but he introduced it at first time in U.S. about 14 years ago.


I received the notice of his death today.

He left us December 11th 2010.

I don't know the reason, yet.

He was very nice man. He answered my questions willingly all the time.


May his soul rest in peace.

Video Girl

There was a Manga (comic), titled, "Video Girl" in Japan about 20 years ago.

The story was: a pretty girl slips out from video and comes to real world.

Today, the barbie doll became the video girl.
However this video girl is very different to Japanese one.

The barbie has a camera in her body and she records video. (click here to see link)

"FBI warning," sounds funny, but not funny actually.

I wish people use "Video Girl Barbie" correctly, and parents take care well their kids.

By the way, if you are interested Japanese "Video Girl," to see wiki, click here.

Everlasting Smiles Foundation

I attended a charity event.


 Everlasting Smiles Foundation.

This event was a fundraiser for children who have brain tumor.







There was a collection box and a lot of food.
But those were mostly candies.




Yes, because the party was for kids.





Some girls got hair cut.



And adults too.
The adults hair cut fees went to the fund.





The kids took some pictures with the owner of the salon, Cristophe who works for Hillary & Bill Clinton, Dustin Hoffman, and more celebrities.

I get hair cut at this salon, too.
but not by him.






There were some "Silent Auctions".




All of children had cute smiles.

I wish all children are going to win to their diseases.

Re: Euglena

Number of page views of my blog increased suddenly recently.

I can see the stats of my blog.

That tells me "how many page views, where the viewer live, and how viewers reached my blog".

I checked the stats, and it indicates most number of viewer forwarded from the word search "Euglena".

There was 44 page views from Euglena in a day at the other day.

Most people accessed from inside of U.S.
And next areas were Indonesia, Philippine, and Thailand.

Why?
How this much people interested Euglena?(゚_。)?(。_゚)?

Snow @ Rodeo Drive

I have not seen the snow since I moved to LA.

I have seen snow every year when I was in Japan.

Because I was traveling around in Japan about half of a year by work?

No there was snow even in Osaka at least once or twice a winter.

But I have not seen the snow since I moved to LA in 1996.


However I may see the snow in this Thursday

@ Rodeo Drive.

HIV & SEX

I accidentally found a little bit old news.

No Angels Singer Nadja Benaissa Found Guilty in HIV Trial (click here to link).

She was sentenced 2 years suspended prison with 300 hours community service. Possible 10 years behind bars.

mmm.....

It is so difficult.

She is a carrier, and she was charged with aggravated assault.

mmm.....

If she was not carrier, she was not charged.
Nothing happened.

mmm.....


HIV is not infected in normal sexual activity in general.
Of course not 100% sure.

Especially it is really low possibility infect woman to man.

The boyfriend was unlucky?

Or other boyfriends were lucky?

Anyway two of them are living with HIV virus their left of lives.

I wish their virus do not break out to Aids in their whole lives.












B-T-W, I don't really like her eyebrows.
