The Day 5 August, Japanese time is THE DAY OF THE HIROSHIMA BOMB, every year and same day we come together in front of the Consulate General of Japan, NYC. and call for “No More Nuke! No More War!”. Mr. Shigeru Hanaoka came from Japan and was joining this demo and Wish Festival opening, he did great speech and was playing saxophone. We were so great feeling !
For a long time, I was wondering why sewing machine spools (bobbin) and radioactivity marks look similar.
Upon examination, the sewing machine thread was made to match the shape of the bobbin, and the mark of radioactivity was more than that. In 1941, the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory, California, USA (currently Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory) invented in its basic design the three leaves protruding from the center. These three leaves represent α- rays, β-rays, and y-rays, respectively, and simply represent how each radiation is emitted from the central nucleus.
You wind the thread to the adorable Japanese children’s song “Itomaki”, but your hands have already been exposed and your skin is sore and red. How long will you continue to wind?
Although it snowed before and after March 11th, it was chilly but the weather was fair, like a gift. At this time we had a one-day exhibition at our friend, activist and jazz pianist Trudy’s 5C Cafe & Cultural Center (outside corner due to corona circumstances).
I’m making a photo video right now, so please wait for a while.
2019 late November we moved to Newburgh, NY. Soon after, because of the covid-19 issue, our bus to NYC had stopped running so we sometimes had to use Hudson Line train to Grand Central, NYC. Water water, and water. This is exactly the scenery Orin and I were missing while we were in Bisbee/AZ. Now, we are missing the amazing, spectacular scenery in AZ!! Well, people including me showed our policy “Stop! Indian Point now!” Yes, our desire comes true. Still thinking about what is the best energy instead of electricity.
