FIgure Skating in Olympic

Woman's Figure Skating in Vancouver was a game which most of Japanese people were looking forward to watching. And yesterday's free skating was the game which literally all of Japanese watched.
It was unfortunate Mao won the silver medal despite of most Japanese expectations. But she performed pretty well, given the slump of her during the year of 2009. She was about to loose to be nomination for this year's Olympic.
And other two woman athletes are also performed well.

The results were
Silver Medal ; ASADA, Mao (born in 1990)
4th ;ANDO, Miki (born in 1987)
8th ;SUZUKI, Akiko (born in 1985)

Among those athletes, Suzuki Akiko amazed most Japanese. She won the 1st prize in Junior High School competition. But afterwards, when she became a college student hundred miles away from her home, she was so overwhelmed by the pressure from her surrounding that she suffered anorexia. She could hardly get up from her bed. So she eventually went back to her home town, where her mother made home-made nutritious foods for her. She lost her weight to 32Kg from her original weight was 47kg. Thanks to her mother's continuous warm supports, she came back to the NHK competition in 2008, and won the third prize. Although she remained in 8th position, her smile with her satisfaction after the competition impressed so much.

It was a great and exciting game.

PM Yukio Hatoyama: 15M Yen from Mon is too small to remember!!

It turned out in the lower house budget commitee, that Yukio Hatoyama's Mom donated 15MillionYen to his son, Yukio Hatoyama, claiming that Yukio needs money for his cronies.
To our surprise, this was quoted by his real little brother, who was also told by her mon at the same time that: "Your big brother is busy and in need for money for his cronies. How about you? Yor are loner, so you don't need money, do you?"

LDP is claiming that this quote is exactly the testament that Yukio begged her mon to donate money.
But I don't think so. His mom is actually a wife of ex PM, Ichiro Hatoyama, and a daughter of the founder of 'Bridgestone.' She could not be an ordinary house wife.

She seemed to inherite a good virtue of trarditional Japanses, who won't complain about his husband's earnings, and without a word from his hus, when she understands that it's a war time for her hus, she would give him a fund of war from savings so that her hus could win the war. (while I don't see such wives anymore. ) :)

This case is just a matter of the amount of the money.
But it is already apparent that her mom gave him some Billions Yen.
Some Million yen is too small to remember for him.

You can't judge their clan from the standard of ordinary people.

Don't waste of the time in committee. There are a lot to be discussed.
