I went to the War Cemetery of Hodogaya Commonwealth Nations War Cemetery with Rev. Dick of Yokohama Christ Church. He explained why the name of the British Commonwealth Nations "British" was dropped out. Today the Commonwealth Nations are not only from the nations of the British Empire, but others are participating and it is economic group.

On the way we had a chance of talking about our background and he mentioned in 1984 he came to Japan as an Anglican volunteer to the Asian Rural Society and later got married to a Japanese woman and lived in the Philippines in 1990's and told me there is a Christian Congregation group called the Independent Church of Philippines participating in the Anglican bishops of the Philippines with a Catholic tradition but not part of the Roman Church under the Vatican Pope because of their independent movement in the Spanish colonial days.

All Saints Day

Today is All Saints Day. Yokohama Christ Church members went to the Yokohama Foreign General Cemetery for the prayer at their grave. 

Yokohama Union Church member is collecting donation for a girl in an orphanage for her school "RANDOSERU".  She was adopted to St. Mary's International School graduate whom I thought he was a wealthy and highly educated man married without a child. However, he was not nice as he looks, and she was put into the Japanese government protection and went back to an orphanage. She was a student at Yokohama Christian School when the government protected her. She is now entering an elementary school, so the church members are collecting money to donate her a "RANDOSERU".

Facebook has a meaning.   SJC grad. Endo put on Facebook that the funeral of Ritchie will take place today at 11 in Sacred Heart Cathedral.

I thought it was another Halloween joke. However, John Fanourakis wrote it is too young for Ritchie to die at the age of 66. I look at the Facebook

carefully and saw the sign of the funeral of Ritchie will take place at the Sacred Heart Cathedral from 11 to 12.  It was 10:55. I rushed to a casual suit with a tie and went to the Cathedral and able to attend the Funeral Mass.

With the Great Depression 

America faced unbelievable happening from the loss of wealth, so FDR , the president created two things not to repeat, one was to separate the Security business with banking, the other is oversee the New York Stock Exchange. This was the base of the American economy till Republicans under Ike, Nixon, Reagan and the others changed them.

Why this took place is with Ayn Rand's philosophy of Laises fairs and Federal Reserve head for many years Mr. Greenspan was her disciple appointed by Dick Nixon to lead it. He lowered the interest rate and made the USA great again even though he had been challenged many times but overcame the difficulties.  I t eventually caused the money flow to the real estate and housing with subprime loans. When money overflows, it will eventually go to the investment in land, but this took place later in Greenspan era. It was well managed and people said he was a "maestro", master of money control.

The other was a very successful investor during the booming 1920's and lost everything with the crush. Benjamin Graham later had a chance to teach at Columbia University, Business School.  Mr. Warren Buffett took his course. It was based on the concept of value investing.

Buffett invested with the value investing and became very successful. He shares his knowledge and wealth with other people and people like him very much.

Dear Romans and Friends

Sunday Report

I went to Yokohama Christ Church at 9 and enjoy the sermon. right after the Autumn Bazaar took place, started to rain but stop and restarted to rain in the afternoon. I met Rex and two scholars teaching Keio U. and MD in the advance hospital near Haneda who had a sabbatical in the UK with very intelligent very young daughter and a son as usual kid. I spent 3, 000 yen for the cakes, hot dog and other goodies.  I told the rector that my appointment with him to take the war cemetery will be postponed to next Monday because His Majesty Ambassador is visiting the Yokohama area and I have to escort her. He said he would like to come with me to see the new ambassador, so I accept it, anyway it is his ambassador.

I met Rex, a Canadian gentleman whose wife is a St. Maur International school 3rd grade teacher, and I will continue meeting him to know better about the Canadian international school system to have a Canadian style education in Japan instead of American or British ones coming here in flocks. There are several reasons I think a Canadian system is good for Japan.

a report on a thought of a day

i went to see my mentor Mr. Tomioka about knowing the world today, concentrating with China and the future of the world under AI.

After a nice talk and very impressive one, I had a chance to have a lunch at the Japanese style rich farmhouse with Yakitori filled with the tourists around the world in Nishi Azabu.

I had to deliver the Remembrance Day Poppy Appeal to Beyondia International School Mita. Their enrollment now is 27 and growing in Minato-ku. 

On the way back I received a call from the British Embassy Tokyo/Osaka that the new Ambassador would like to have an escort tour of the Yokohama Foreign General Cemetery on Monday October 26th Monday afternoon though I am not on the Board of the Cemetery, so I asked the Caretaker Mr. Higuchi about this and the Chairman of the Cemetery is busy on the day, and he is off duty on the day and plus it is the request of the Ambassador to have me do the escort, so I accept it.

Something I learned from visiting Beyondia International School Yamata Kindergarten.

I had a chance to attend the workshop of Dianne Sensei, a Senzonzoku College of Music professor for Musical Performance.

I realize that Musical or Play was very important of language and discipline education among the international schools and may be far important than IB or other activities they have in the international school curriculum and very good topic to study for Content and Language Integrated Learning which is spreading in Europe and now in Japan.
