There is still a custom of exhibiting self-control at Hanami, but now people's sentiments have changed. People are starting to say "Let's Hanami! Drink sake from the Tohoku area! Matsuri (festival) is a kind of prayer, too much control may shrink the economy more!" Also, Tohoku sake brewers unite, urge Tokyo to drink up in support. I agree and I bought 6 bottles of "Akakirishima" shochu (a good one, it's hard to get) for Hanami last night, but one is already gone and I had a hangover today. Whoops!
The Seattle Space Needle, New York City's Empire State Building, and other iconic towers around the world were illuminated in white and red on April 5th as a sign of support for Japan. Thanks! Tokyo Tower looks like it's pink and blue, though it ought to have the best display :-p

I didn't know about this woman until two days ago, but her name is "Teruko Matsubara" and she is a psychic. I heard about her from a physicist's blog. The scientist wrote that even though Matsubara doesn't have a background in science, her words gave him a hint as to how to remove radiation from the air. And he said that since last year, Matsubara has been predicting an earthquake and tsunami to hit the Tohoku area, and on February 16, 2011, she mentioned exactly where the dangerous areas would be: Iwate, Miyagi, Fukushima, and Ibaragi. She also added a city named "Rikuzen Takada", even though she didn't know where it was. Rikuzen Takada is a small city in the Iwate prefecture, actually I've never heard of it until the earthquake hit, but now it's known as one of the cities most damaged by this earthquake. Since last week, her site has been hard to access because of heavy traffic. Here is her site, it's only available in Japanese. I also found her old site, which has parts that are translated into English. As for the US, she mentioned the words "California" and "volcano". She also predicts that North Korea will have some kind of big change this year, and that President Obama is trying to annouce something very important that has been kept secret for a long time. Anyways, please read these things with a grain of salt. I am interested in these things now.

Akakirishima shochu must really be a hard drink to give that much hangover in the morning.
