			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On my cell phone I subscribe to a service called <a href="http://www.tangotown.jp/tangotown/">TangoTown</a>. Its a great service that provides online dictionaries, phrase books and one of the best translators I&#8217;ve used (nice thing is it gives a reverse translation so if the meaning is unmangled after English->Japanese->English you know its OK and can try fixing it if it isn&#8217;t). Anyways, another of its services emails out messages to help you study vocabulary, kanji, phrases &#038; slang. I was ROFLing at the slang-of-the-day for yesterday:</p>
<p><i>?????? - oppaiseijin - breast fetish - (literally) Alien from the planet &#8220;Tits&#8221;</i></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This entry is a bit of a catch-up of stuff that&#8217;s happened this week.</p>
<p>First event happened just after I got back home from the train ride from Fuji on Sunday night (almost Monday morning). I heard the windows rattling, but there hadn&#8217;t been any wind when I was outside just a few minutes earlier. Investigating, I discovered it was the inside sliding doors rattling and the hanging lamps were swaying just slightly. Looks like I had experienced <a href="http://earthquake.usgs.gov/recenteqsww/Quakes/usnaav.htm">my first earthquake</a>. I really didn&#8217;t feel it, but it was a pretty significant one off the coast that caused a few injuries in coastal areas and tsunami warnings. It was the second of a pair, didn&#8217;t notice the first while on the bus. Good thing it didn&#8217;t happen earlier, they might have shutdown the trains. I would not have enjoyed that as tired as I was.</p>
<p>Other significant event of the week was Tuesday with <a href="http://agora.ex.nii.ac.jp/digital-typhoon/news/2004/TC0418/">Typhoon 18</a>. As usual, everyone around here was in a mild panic over the prospects of the typhoon &#038; warning me about it. The last two weren&#8217;t all that impressive here, even though they did a fair amount of damage on the coasts. No worse that a heavy monsoon rain, the likes of which I&#8217;ve ridden my bike home in before.<br />
