Koike Becomes Tokyo Governor

NHK and other media announced that Ms Yuriko Koike will win Tokyo governor election right after closed the polls. Among two other main candidates, Koike looked preferable to them. Torigoe looked too left and Masuda looked as a puppet of the LDP Tokyo branch. 

Koike will be the first Tokyo's female governor. I hope she won't step down by scandals like former two governors.

1000th Post

My blog posts have reached 1,000 today. I began to post in 2008, but once I stopped posting. I restarted to post in November 2013 and since then I've been posting a blog every day. 

I'm not good at writing in English, so you can find lots of mistakes in my posts. Forgive me, this blog is only for my fun. I just enjoy writing something in English.

Life of Pi

I took "Life of Pi" for my next audiobook. I once read the book in English. It was really interesting story. But to tell the truth, I had hard time to reading the novel because of my poor English skills. 

I prefer listening to English novels, so I'll try it again if I can understand it well. The recording time is over 11 hours. I can enjoy it at least a week.

Tear Down This Wall Speech

I'm listen to an English audiobook about American history lecture. One of the topics today was the Cold War. In the lecture, I could hear a famous President Reagan's Brandenburg Gate speech. I used to listen the speech many times. I even read aloud again and again. I really like the famous "Tear down this wall" address. 

And I realized that the audiobook was left only 30 minutes now. It has 24 hours long lectures. I finally came here. I'll finish if tomorrow. I have to search next audiobook later.

A Massacre in Japan

Nineteen handicapped people were killed and others were injured by a knife attack in Kanazawa prefecture. The suspect, Uematsu, broke into a facility for people with disabilities around 2:30 a.m. and attacked with knives.  

According to news reports, Uematsu shouted 'I want to get rid of the disabled from this world.' It was insane and too selfish thought. The massacre seemed well prepared. 

This was a grim and unforgivable masscre. Police and prosecutors should investigate this case in detail. The extreme penalty is not enough to the murderer.

The Invention of Television

Today's American history was about television. Television has changed the world. In 1940s, TV broadcast started in the US. It became popular rapidly, and influenced the world. 

If television wasn't invented, JFK wouldn't be the president of the United States, the Vietnam war would last longer.
