King, queen of Bhutan visit disaster-hit Fukushima

TOKYO (Kyodo) -- The king and queen of Bhutan visited Fukushima Prefecture Friday to encourage people affected by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami and the nuclear crisis triggered by the disaster.

King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck and Queen Jetsun Pema visited Sakuragaoka Elementary School in the city of Soma and enjoyed singing and dancing performances by fifth- and sixth-grade students.

The king told the pupils that the royal couple had come to Japan to encourage people suffering from the grave disasters.

Taking a dragon which is depicted in the Bhutan's national flag as an analogy for personality, the king told the students to nurture their personal quality by controlling their emotions while living through such hardship.

Have you ever seen the dragon ? I had seen that. The dragon is in each　of inside. A dragon eats "experience" and becomes large. A dragon becomes large every year. Please cherish the dragon inside of you.

The Bhutan king said the thing of such a meaning .

In the West the dragon is a symbol of the devil incarnate, the Oriental dragon is a noble spirit

Thanks for song . Kibera brothers.

14th March 2011,There is an informal primary school named MAGOSO in Kibera slum in suburbs of Nairobi, Kenya. This is a prayer and a song for Japanese people who are affected by the huge disaster of earthquakes and TSUNAMI.

それにしてもアフリカ人というのは皆、歌が上手いのか？音楽も十分支援になるんだと実感。 貧者の一灯という言葉が日本にはあるけど無形の支援というのもあるんだ。

A bento box is designed to hold lunch for one, with individual compartments and sometimes multiple tiers for rice or noodles and several side dishes.  Some boxes are microwave-safe, but most of the fancier ones are not.  They are made of materials ranging from traditional wood to aluminum to plastic (don't microwave metal!).

 I want it that way


Yeah

You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way

But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
（That） I want it that way

[Chorus:]
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Am I your fire
Your one desire
Yes I know it's too late
But I want it that way

[Chorus]

Now I can see that we're falling apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know
That deep down inside of me...

You are my fire
The one desire
You are
You are, you are, you are

Don't wanna hear you say
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
(Don't wanna hear you say it)
I want it that way
I want it that way
