Facebook Bug
What I supposed to download was a map showing the different cooking
styles of O-Zouni (celebrative cooking for new-year) all over in Japan.
In stead, what I got was a hacked-in fraud from Facebook. —– on the face
it looks like a notice from Google Chrome though, in fact it was a disguised
mail which tricks us to give Email address and its Password to Facebook
= as the sender’s ID was shown on the top-left corner.
—– In order to deceive, it is showing the big G-Chrome Logo but their
“Facebook Logo” was not shown. (my be excusing with “Technical hitch”)
And saying “You’re using a web browser that isn’t supported by Facebook”
while showing Net-Explorer, Mozilla-Firefox etc etc —– despite I’m using
latest Firefox. = it was just a sheer pretext to steal Password. (Anyhow, as
I don’t use SNS, neither need to have Facebook convenient Browser. 🙂 )
[]
Why they have to take like this desperate measure. = Now hundreds of
thousands of people leaving Facebook everyday. It is an out-of-dated
old fashioned SNS, and only old users (30~40s) are still keep using it.
(Young and more active user has moved to LINE or SNAPCHAT etc.)
= So, they are desperate to fill-up the lost numbers and hack-into
the address book to trick the friends to join —– by sending false mails
which says “Yoshi is asking you to join Facebook” 😀 😀
How Pathetic. —– I’ve been wondering why people need to have such
kind of FALSE feeling of being ” CONNECTED” = now everybody
knows that such superficial number of “So-called FRIENDS” or
number of LIKE is nothing to do with “Real Human Relation”.
Nobody feel confident with the empty person who couldn’t even
stand alone but seek numbers in So-called Friends or Followers.
————–
PS ; The further trouble I discovered about the aforesaid
Facebook Bug was, —— it was very difficult to delete that file,
as I didn’t obey and sign-up for them to finish their task.
So that, I needed to find the file and delete it. ==> But, later
I discovered that the Facebook Hacker left a virus in my PC
which blocks the function of “Copy and Paste”. So, when I try
to Copy and Paste = what appeared on the screen was not what
I copied but the logo of G-Chrome and the Hyperlink.
Hyperlink to go back to the same Facebook page.
= which is harassing us to give-up and sign-up to them !
—– Can you believe, this is what Facebook is actually doing.
Are they such desperate in this extent ?

What’s there ?
Here the question is ” Is there or not there” ” What’s there” in
a photo or behind the photography.
This is an obvious subject, nobody would give any argument
what it is. And even without photograph, it still exists = photo is
mere secondly image of the existence. Photo didn’t make it exists.
This image has no significance = It’s just there, like a subject.
But you may puzzle what this is ?
What photographed here is the whole possession of a homeless person.
Still some would say “So, what” —– OR others may see the meaning in
social issue or even philosophical aspects “What’s the human existence”
yet, visually they are just a lots of plastic bags on a bicycle. Nothing else.
More than that is all in your mind.
It’s all depends on, whether you make a mountain out of this heap.
Some might be good deep insights otherwise just the delusions.
Before one photographic image, we have to see what a person
who is photographing has seen or conceived, let alone aimed.
But who can see it clear —– and, who knows how real what we’ve seen.
What I’m seeing might be there —– is it ? Where ? Here or there or behind.
We may not able to define what we are seeing unless we intentionally
impose a preconception, what I want to see, and reconstruct
the image OR story.
And it depend what we can see or what we know. —– or believe to know.
And if we know, —– can we be any wiser ? Really ? ? ?
Is there any use, if I told you what it was ?
In reality, we may not seeing any, let alone knowing, are they
really there. So, this is the real situation, and how and what they are.
(If you want to see the VOIDNESS in much more symbolic
elaborated image, it is your pretence and the arrogance !)
—– truth might be just empty space.
= Don’t struggle. Let it be and see just as it is. Don’t make-up the order.
(F&M’s Cherubs were in a mess of reflection = that was how they were. :-D)
By nature, as it is empty from the beginning, see as it is, be with it, is Ichijo.
Be with emptiness mean the mind is not there = Mushin.
Don’t impose own order mean = no complaint. What’s wrong with it ? 😀
—– So, it’s nice to be in PEACE.

Party Time
On the London Underground I encountered very very colorful
bunch of the people. They said they are on the way to “a kind of Party”
—– later, I found, they are in fact the Government officers !
(Do you noticed, they are wearing 007 type very special glove ?
It might be for Golfing Gold finger’s)
I guess, it may not be a special disguise for a rather elaborated
intelligence operation but more like for a chemical-physiological
assessment project to find a toxicity of the liquid substance.
—– anyhow, to avoid me to become a hacking subject of GCHQ,
I shouldn’t go into too much details.
I wish them having had a very GOOD time
and safely returned to their home now. 🙂

Black Friday
Everybody knows what Black Friday is. —– So what ?
It doesn’t necessary mean “Everybody became shopping crazy.
But obviously it made Co. to became AD crazy. I don’t mind to
see a kind of business deal ADed by even tech’review site as I
might buy it.
Though, such as Amazon sending me 2 AD / day is too much.
[]
They are funny Co. = on the beginning I bought
Compact flush Memory Card from them as it is becoming
hard to come by item in the shop. —–> from this, to make
connexions to Cameras , Tech’item etc was obvious and I didn’t
mind to see what they got once in few days.
Then “very funny things” happened. When I attempted to buy
Canon type Lithium Battery to other use, not only to enter
Credit-card data etc. but they asked me to type “Promotional Code”
of which I have no idea = hence shopping was abandoned.
(I gave an inquiry “What is Promotional Code ?” to them. 🙂 )
[]
And this data (my inquiry) has been sold by Amazon or the mail had
been hacked —–> I started to receive offers from VaucherCode Co.
And Amazon’s started to send me more and more ADs. ==> My
Patience has run-out. With a setting of Filter, all of those PESTS were
now blocked and goes to bin straight without me ever know it.
I don’t think I need to use Buddhist’s word “Middle-way”
= Gone too far doesn’t work. I can’t understand, are they such idiot ?

Fruits Fly
It seems different people call different Fruits Fly though, I’m talking
about very small common Fruits Fly in England. While Googling, I
found that the others are having the same problem of Fruits Fly.
——( Dead Fruits Flies I found, and they were photographed by Nikkor 24mm F2 lens,
Reverse-mounted with extension-ring on Canon 5D Mk-III — as a X5 Macro-close-up)
—– they suddenly appear in mass and start to pest the place.
Of cause, I wouldn’t believe that they naturally generated —– there
must be somewhere something nursing them. But what was that ?
I certainly don’t have rotten fruits or cow-dung dropped in my room.
[]
When I was in my junior school, there was a kind of out of course
biology project = To receive a bottle of fruits fly and keep them in
a warm condition. Then next week, 10 of the pupil brought back
each bottle and counted the number of hatched fly — how many of
them had black eyes etc. Actuary, we were assisting the researcher’s
study (without understanding what for we are doing. :-D)
Anyhow, still we learned how to nurse Fruits Fly with a gluey
yeast-starch mix and to see them hatch less than 10 days.
= It’s mean, when one female came into the room and laid the eggs,
a week to 10 days later, suddenly the room would have 100 of them
flying around.
[]
While observing where they are frocking, I realized that the fruits
skin peel etc anything sweet and wet in the bin is attracting them.
On top of those, I discovered that quite number of them penetrated
the polythene bag of Raisin loaf through small gap = they must have
laid hundreds of the eggs on the raisin. = If I didn’t notice, I could
have eaten plenty protein as well. (That was how the Essential
Amino-acid was delivered to the “Strict Vegetarian” 🙂 )
—– then battle commence. Since then, any wet or not completely
dry rubbish, mostly fruits peel kind were lapped-up in polythene bag
and goes to the bin and any soft food goes either fridge or plastic
container with lid. I needed to make my room as dessicated and futile
as a desert, making them to convince “It’s better to go somewhere else”.
( I did composting before though, I have no garden of compost to go,
and it’s bin itself became a center of unpleasant insects, fly etc
= So, I gave up the idea.)
[]
So that, in reality, to have an ecological, naturally harmonious life =
“Happily Live Together with other small Lives” is = sound sweet but
not practical or ideal at all. In fact nothing but a pretentious fraud.
We shouldn’t forget “To keep hygienic, clean life” is no other than
the practice to persecute against the pests and the germs.
The Bottle-fly or Cockroach are just having their own life that all.
Even AIDS virus is surely the other life-form. They only happen to
cross over the boundary to the human life and created the conflict.
—– People expecting a beautiful Butterfly just fly over their flowers,
still never anticipates their larvae could infest their plant in their
garden. —– if they saw it, certainly 99% of them will kill it.
[]
It easy to make-up a softy face and preach love and compassion kind
—– Oh ! Really ?
= Better not to be a filthy hypocrite. I rather stay to be a honest tyrant,
killing millions of grains and beans every year, on top of billions of
other invisible small creatures and the germs for my comfort and the
survival. —– To know the real extent, how we are relying on the sacrifice
of other life-form = Exact reality of the Karma, not a convenient pretty
story to justify and glorify ourselves, is the duty to be a real Buddhist.
Scripture spent so many pages to explain about the Oneness (Ichijo —
such as that “Giving, even without having a conscious of giving” ==>
having pretentious mind is too remote from the Buddhism.)
We need to see and think it in person.

PS: Since when my flat was made a desert, they just disappeared
and I only managed to find two dead bodies —– Where had they gone ?

JFK —– 50 years ago
On this day, 50 years ago, I was up in the Mountain Shelter.
23rd of November is a Japanese National Holiday, equivalent of the
Thanks giving day / Kinro-kansha no Hi (勤労感謝の日) —– and when
ever those holiday could be conjoined to the weekend (with additional
day skip from the school) I came up to the mountain.
On that time in the Shelter, there were 2 more senior keepers.
As I was a youngest (still in the high school) I got up earliest and put a
light to a heating stove and a cooking stove, and while waiting the water
to boil, I was preparing to make a tea.
Then, a senior keeper “Saigo the Devil’s Ear” (地獄耳の西郷さん) came down
from upstairs and told me “Hey, Kennedy was dead”
“What ? what did you say ?” “Kennedy was shot dead” “How do you know ?”
“Other climber’s radio said” (Saigo-san often put a tea-cup over his ear and
listen other’s conversation in distance = hence his nick-name.) then we put
a switch on to our radio. —– yes, the news was true.
(The time, when the news spread to the world = afternoon in Dallas was,
still very early morning in Japan = 4 or 5 o’clock) —– anybody who faced
this news when they got-up, was just shocked and depressed, wordless.
—– It was the moment when I heard the very news.

Winter Cherry again !
This is the third year for me watching this special Cherry tree !
Special because she blooms in the winter, and keep blooming until
their more usual blooming time of April. (Continuously all through
6 months. So that I even wrongly called her Perpetual Cherry !)
And, this is the first photo session for this season despite only
few flowers there yet. (More would be added here later. 🙂 )
So, say hello to Cherry-san.
(PS: Close-up was done by the same Fish-eye lens, while lens was
held lifted from the body = held the lens not fully inserted to the
body (hence close focus) = and the lens was not fully engaged to
the body, there was no control to the lens = aperture was F4 🙂 )
[]
Last Remain of Flowers —– of this year ?
When I was a bit younger and in business, there was a phrase “4 o’clock irritation”.
= before closing time, something could still be done —– otherwise, became too late,
so, what has been done, haven’t been done etc ETC ! —– You know what I mean 😀
—– And coming to the time 4 o’clock in my life, I have to do the stock-taking.
= And in the same context (Useless thinking in Buddhist’s term 😀 ) see the nature
and feel “Oh, you still giving your effort” — but with sigh.
Don’t think. Just see as they are.
Some might have done the work. More than enough or just — what ever
it was a given opportunity and only an opportunity.
(What a bloody hell, Xmas is next month —- I thought,
Xmas was yesterday !) 😀 😀
