Japanese comic heroes come to life at Cosplay

2009-11-23T19:44:00.000-08:00

Japanese comic heroes come to life at Cosplay
PRINCESSES in flowing ballgowns, pilots of futuristic vessels and gigantic robots competed

on a level playing field at the national Cosplay championship at the weekend.

The grand final of the "costume play" event, held in an Albert Park hotel, brought together

Australia's most fervent supporters of Japanese comics and cartoons, better known as manga

and anime. Rather than just read or watch, people like Adelaide's Jenita Naipal spend

hundreds of hours making costumes of their favourite characters and then parading about in

them.

"I've had 3½ months to make it - that's a short time in the costuming world," the 24-year-

old said, struggling out of her robot suit from Laputa: Castle in the Sky.

"The arms are 190 centimetres, the head would be another 30 centimetres on top of that. I'm

five-foot-one-and-a-half [155 centimetres] so I'm walking with my hands above my head … I

was dying in there."

The fifth-placed Naipal won products from anime distributor Madman, which put on the event.

"I can definitely improve," she added.

Melbourne's Nicole Collis, 21, has just finished a digital arts course at RMIT, but her life

has been "full-time costume pandemonium" since then. The competition's runner-up is widely

known as Siera, her pen-name on internet forums, and she portrayed Rue from Princess Tutu, a

manga with a similar story to Swan Lake.

"I love the performance, being in character, it's a unique and creative way to express

yourself," she said, twirling in her pink and burgundy ball gown.

Her parents and friends were not particularly surprised by her hobby, she said. "They think

I'm a bit more than just crazy."

The competition's winner, Christie Lee of Sydney, was overjoyed with her prize: a trip to

Japan to attend next year's Tokyo Anime Fair.

"It hasn't really sunk in yet,'' she said.

In two outfits - a blue Victorian dress and a tight red number - the 21-year-old explained

how her favourite series was like a "twisted version" of Lewis Carroll's Alice in

Wonderland.

"I did a character named Alice from Pandora Hearts. Pretty much a girl who has a super power

and turns into a demon killer bunny," she explained, casually.

The surfing story

SURFING has taken seven-time world champion Layne Beachley around the world, but she never

thought she would end up in an exhibition.

A new collection celebrating the sport opened at the National Sports Museum at the MCG

yesterday, thrilling the wave-loving Beachley.

"I know, I was in a surfing museum before I was dead," she said, laughing.

"Never in my wildest dreams did I think that boards would be hanging up at the MCG."

Collections manager Jed Smith said The Long Ride: 100 Years of Australian Surfing traversed

the origins of the sport through to the professional circuit of today. The exhibition

stretches back to 1909 when Manly's Tommy Walker brought a board from Hawaii and started to

ride. (It was previously held that Hawaiian champion Duke Kahanamoku was the first to ride

local waves in the 1920s.)

Until interest spiked in the 1970s and '80s, surfing was amateur and recreational, he said.

"So to get hold of boards to see the evolution, it's quite extraordinary."

Beachley said her first boards were thick, wide and long. "We'd be encouraged to learn on

'moving sidewalks'," she said. "Now the craftsmanship is just amazing, and it's great to see

it be honoured and admired and appreciated."

The exhibition runs until the end of February.

final fantasy cloud strife

2009-11-18T18:36:00.000-08:00

Concept and creation

Cloud was designed by Tetsuya Nomura with influences from Yoshinori Kitase, Kazushige Nojima and Hironobu Sakaguchi. Originally conceptualized by Sakaguchi as one of only three playable characters in early planning stages for Final Fantasy VII, Cloud's character saw greater oversight by Nomura than with other characters in previous Final Fantasy projects. Nomura has said the original parameters of Cloud's character design called for slicked-back, black hair with no spikes. This depiction was to serve as a contrast to the long, flowing silver hair of the game's lead antagonist, Sephiroth. However, to make Cloud stand out more and emphasize his role in the game as the lead protagonist, Nomura altered Cloud's design to give him spiky, bright, blond hair. Furthermore, Nomura was called upon to supervise Cloud's various lines and personality traits. Kitase and Nojima, meanwhile, were in charge of developing Cloud's background and his relationship with the character of Sephiroth.Kitase said of the character:There wasn't really much controversy or criticism about having him as the hero from within Square, but he is definitely a mysterious character. That's one of the game's main themes, the fact that the protagonist has all these secrets to unravel. He isn't a straightforward hero like Superman; rather, he has lots of mysteries, self-doubts, and a real dark side. Mr. Nomura was also very good at designing a character like that.—Yoshinori Kitase, Electronic Gaming Monthly, October 2005Nojima has expressed the dynamic of the relationship between the player and the main character in a Final Fantasy title is something he always puts thought into, and with Final Fantasy VII, Cloud's subdued nature led him to write scenes with the character in such a way that the players would be placed in the position of deciding for themselves what the character was thinking.[9]For Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, Nomura agreed to direct the project, largely in part because of his attachment to the character of Cloud. Nomura, on explaining Cloud's situation in the film, said that "Cloud tried to lead his life positively after the end of FF7 but he cracked...The sin which Cloud thinks he owns is not anyone's fault in particular. It is something Cloud has to overcome by himself." Nojima said that the theme of the story is one of redemption. "If you want to be forgiven, you have to take the hard path in life." Cloud, in choosing to fight against Sephiroth once again, is finally "given healing and forgiveness."[7] Nomura concluded, "Cloud seems to be a weak guy. Generally, heroes are strong, cool and don't have any weaknesses...Although Cloud is a jerk sometimes, he is really human-like. It's through redemption from his friends and having children to protect that he becomes stronger."

Black Butler is a manga written and illustrated by Yana Toboso. Since its debut on September 16, 2006, it has been serialized in Square Enix's shōnen manga magazineMonthly GFantasy. The series follows Sebastian Michaelis, a demonic butler who is obligated to serve Ciel Phantomhive, the twelve-year-old head of the Phantomhive noble family, due to a contract he made with Ciel.

However, at the Sono Shitsuji, Shūshō: Saigo no Bansan o Anata to Tomo ni event on June 14, 2009, it was announced that the anime will be returning for a second series. Seiyū Junichi Suwabe confirmed this news on his official blog later that day. The series has been licensed for an English release by Yen Press and will be published in Yen Plus' August 2009 issue for the magazine's first anniversary.

Youmu Konpaku from Touhou Project

2009-08-18T06:49:00.000-07:00

Species: Half-human half-ghost
Ability: Swordsmanship
Residence: Hakugyokurō
Theme Song: Hiroari Shoots a Strange Bird ~ Till When?
Stage 5 boss and stage 6 midboss, in addition, she is a playable character in Touhou 7.5-9, and 10.5 as well. Youmu is the gardener of the netherworld pagoda, Hakugyokuro. She comes from a very rare breed, the half-ghosts; in this strange combination, the human half and ghost half exist in physically separate bodies, but are always close by one another. Youmu is very young for a half-ghost, under 60 years; her exact age is unknown. While straightforward, focused and loyal to her mistress, Yuyuko, Youmu is still rather immature, and tends to be a target for teasing by the other girls of Gensokyo (particularly her mistress Yuyuko). Paradoxically, she is afraid of ghosts (the imaginary sort). Her talents are swordsmanship and speed. In the games, she is characterized by creating powerful danmaku with her sword slashes, and slowing time (this is not due to magic as one might expect, but because of time slowing around her body as she goes past at unimaginable speeds).

Marisa Kirisame Touhou Project

2009-07-14T21:57:00.001-07:00

Marisa Kirisame Touhou Project
* Species: Human
* Ability: High-powered magic
* Residence: Forest of Magic
* Also known as: Ordinary Magician

Marisa is the secondary main character of Touhou games 3-12, although she makes her first appearance in the second game (Story of Eastern Wonderland) as an enemy. Marisa is a human magician who lives in a cluttered house in the Forest of Magic. She is friends with Reimu and visits her often, but otherwise is solitary and spends most of her time researching magic. She is also an avid collector stuffing her house with various items, and would go "borrowing" things from others without returning them. She is selfish, sometimes violent, and has a disagreeable manner. Underneath, though, she is honest and a hard worker. This makes it strange that she is friends with Reimu, whose powers are purely from talent while she had to work very hard to get her own to the same level. Her ability is high-level destructive magic. In the games, her attacks are characterized by stars and lasers. Consistent to her "borrowing", many of her spells are lifted from other characters, such as her signature "Master Spark" which was originally Yuka's, or her "Nondirectional Laser" attack, which was originally Patchouli's attack.

Reimu Hakurei Touhou Project

2009-06-10T02:11:00.000-07:00

Reimu Hakurei

Species:Human

Ability: Mainly able to fly in the sky

Residence: Hakurei Shrine

Reimu is the main character of Touhou games 1-12. She is the shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine, a remote building far in the east where the boundaries of Gensokyo and the human world overlap. Reimu is very easygoing—some would say lazy—and hates to train. As such, even though she's naturally talented, her offensive and magical abilities are only average. However, she has a strong sense of duty, and if it's for the sake of Gensokyo she can overcome almost any obstacle through sheer perseverance. Her main abilities are flying in the sky, good intuition, and getting along with everyone; even those who were once her enemies. In the games, she is characterized by her homing amulets and yin-yang orbs. In addition to being in all of the Touhou games, she is featured in Graffiti Kingdom as "Flying Maiden".

劇場版による物語の完結から10年が経過した2007年より開始した、劇場用映画4部作による新シリーズ。シリーズ開始にあたっては、「現在の閉塞した日本アニメ界に新たなムーブメントを起こしたい」との庵野の所信表明が行われた。

第1作『序』は、「現代のアニメ技術によって、TVシリーズの魅力を再確認する」というコンセプトのもと、ストーリーはほぼTVシリーズ第壱話から第六話に準じているが、細かい設定やセリフなどに差異があり、これが新たな出発であることを印象づけた。第2作『破』以降は新キャラクターが登場するなど、独自のストーリー展開となる。

高砂製作所

2009-04-14T01:36:00.000-07:00

後半戦に突入した北京五輪。夜間も注目競技がめじろ押しの「スポーツの祭典」を停電から守ろうと、三菱重工業高砂製作所（高砂市荒井町）は社員を現地の発電所に派遣し、同製作所が製造したガスタービンの状態を監視している。中国の威信をかけたイベントで電力供給が途絶えないように-と、今月末まで特別態勢を敷く。

　派遣先は「北京第三発電所」。北京市中心部から南西に車で一時間ほどの郊外にある。二〇〇五年に稼働し、同社製のガスタービンを使用。出力は約三十万キロワットで、人口約三十万人分の電力をまかなえる。

　同社によると、中国の発電所は、送電を管理する公的機関が求める量の電力を供給する。世界のトップ選手らが競う五輪期間中の停電は絶対に許されず、発電所の運営会社が受けるプレッシャーは相当なものという。

　高砂製作所は、先月二十日に社員二人を北京に派遣した。一人は、タービンの温度や振動などのデータを分析。もう一人は、データからガスタービンの状態などを判断する役目で、期間中は三人が交代で担当する。発電所から歩ける距離にあるホテルに宿泊し、二十四時間態勢で備える。

　今月二日までタービンの状態判断を担当した同製作所サービス部の米井陽さん（５６）は「日本にいれば、情報を受けて対応を決めるのに半日はかかるが、現地にいればその場で判断できる」とメリットを強調。十五日に現地入りした同部の大月俊策さん（３３）は「何かあれば、早めに検知できるよう気を付けたい。何もなく帰ることができれば、それが一番」と話す。（松井　元）

女僕

2007-12-10T20:45:00.000-08:00

女傭或女僕是種職業，是請來家中幫傭的女性雇員，曾是大宅第顯示其階級的一部份。在古代中國，直至民國初年，女傭一般指僱用性質作幫傭的女工，與賣身為婢的有所不同，但在稱呼上和實際職務並無明顯區別，例如年輕女傭與賣身到主人家的婢女同樣被稱為丫鬟（廣東人稱「妹仔」），有時亦會被主人虐待。

現況
中國大陸的保母有不少是有不少是農村地區來城市工作的女性，現時亦有不少女傭的培訓中心。

中國大陸
家傭在香港的正式名稱是家務助理，於20世紀初期至中期，不少祖籍廣東順德的女性當自梳女，為維持生計到香港當女傭，稱為媽姐。
到20世紀八十年代，開始引入菲律賓籍女傭，由於薪資較聘用本地女傭低，不少家庭均轉為聘用菲傭，俗稱賓妹，後來印尼女傭、泰國女傭、尼泊爾女傭亦逐漸普及，但菲傭仍然是主流。現時香港就有不少外籍僱傭公司，提供受訓練過的女傭給僱主選擇。
另外亦有本地家務助理，多屬鐘點性質，從事這種工作的女性稱為鐘點女傭或鐘點家務助理。

香港
現今台灣的女傭大多是由東南亞（如印尼、菲律賓）所引進的外籍勞工。除了從事一般家務工作的女傭外，台灣人還有聘用專門的家庭監護工，負責照顧身心殘障的家人。
參看：監護工。

台灣
在西方世界僅有相對少的家庭可以負擔留宿的家務助理，通常包括定期的清潔工，來自發展中國家、教育程度較低婦女、以及受限的女性工作權確保家庭傭工的勞力來源。

女傭執行典型的家務如煮飯、燙衣、洗衣服、清理房子、採購必須品、蹓狗、照顧小孩。在一些國家女傭扮演看護員的角色負責照顧老人和行動不便的人，通常會由雇主提供食宿。

2007/09/07-13:03 １６６万円の記載漏れ＝自民・二階派－パーティー収入、森元首相も

2007-09-07T02:46:00.000-07:00

自民党の二階俊博総務会長が代表を務める二階派の政治団体「新しい波」が、準大手ゼネコンの元幹部が代表を務める政治団体「新政治問題研究会」に売ったパーティー券収入を政治資金収支報告書に記載していなかったことが７日、分かった。二階氏は記者会見で事実関係を認め、「今後二度と起こらないよう精査する」と釈明した。同日、総務省に訂正を届け出た。

　二階派事務局によると、同研究会は「新しい波」が２００５年に東京と大阪で開催した政治資金パーティーで、それぞれ９６万円と７０万円分を購入。政治資金規正法では、１回のパーティーで１団体に２０万円超のパーティー券を買ってもらった場合、名前と金額を公表しなくてはならないが、「新しい波」の収支報告書には全く記載されてなかった。

　一方、森喜朗元首相の資金管理団体「春風会」も０４年末に開いたパーティーで１００万円分のパーティー券を同研究会に購入してもらったが、報告書に記載していなかった。同氏の事務所は「事務処理上のミス」と説明している。６日に総務省に訂正を申し出た。
