[PolitiC@ Nippon] New York Times and Margaret D. Stetz

I found a interesting article from the New York Times.
It's about the "sex slaves" a.k.a "comfort women" who "had been forced to do the sexual service" for the Japanese military during World War II.  It says
 
"
As survivors have testified, many targets of this brutal system of sexual slavery were not “women,” but girls of 13 or 14. Many had not even begun menstruating when they were shipped as human cargo to battlefronts across Asia and subjected to daily rape.
"

I got banned from facebook AGAIN for a week.

Facebook banned me of posting and sharing on timeline, sending messages, and like button for any post for a week.  Right now, what I can do on facebook is only to login. 　  　  　　 　 I asked what I did wrong to get banned to the help desk, but they have not replied me anything yet.  　 What I did right before I had got banned was re-activating one of my pages about discussing the differences between the facts and the fake news on fake medias.   　  　 Well, these are my new pages:    Please give your "like" on my pages.  You will be receiving tons of update (since those pages are updated by bots) from the pages, but you can hide them too.

Blogs and AdSense (2)

Blogs and AdSense http://itoshunsuke.blogspot.jp/2015/07/blogs-and-adsense.html     When I see my Adsense page today, I see some numbers!! *Yay* Last time I open this page after years about 10 days ago, I found that I had made only 78 yen, and other numbers on the list were zero yen. But now, I see "+224 yen!!" This is GOOD. I will donate whatever I make from my blogs to the city of Miyako. Then, hopefully the city of Miyako will let people know by saying "The blogger, Ito Shunsuke, from Miyako has donated 10,000 yen!!" on city paper. So, I will get more traffic, and it will make even more money. Then, I probably can donate 100,000 yen next year, and 1,000,000 yen for the following year, so on. When it reach to 10,000,000 yen, I will say       *LOL*

Portals in Miyako (1)

By playing INGRESS, the smartphone game, sometime it takes me to the places of cultural significance, such as public art, landmarks, monuments, etc. where I have never been or seen even in Miyako, my hometown.    　 I have been taking some pictures of those portals, so I would like to introduce them briefly with map link.  Some of them are not registered as the portals yet, but I had sent the request to INGRESS when I took the pictures. 1. Suidou Kouen (Water Line Park) [Portal Requesting Now] Map:  https://goo.gl/maps/jAZRP This park had opened in June 4th in 1993. You can walk not only behind the water fall, but also in the water with bear foot. So, it's nice place to "chill out" literally. 2. Suijin-hi (Stele of the Water God) [Portal] Map:  https://goo.gl/maps/jAZRP Next to the Suidou Kouen (Water Line Park,) there is Miyako Water Line Management Office.  When this Office opened, they made this stele.   In front of thi...
