“Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn’t matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle; when the sun comes up, you’d better be running.” – Herb Caen

Nintendo is the winner this year
Some months after the launch of Sony’s PS3 and Nintendo’s Wii there is a clear winner, at least for the time being. Look at the next ranking with the games sold last week in Japan, all the games are for Nintendo DS and Wii except the one at the 20th position.
Here you can see the complete list, there is not even one PS3 game in the top50 !
Nintendo Ltd. shares are more expensive than ever, in less than a year the share price has duplicated.

Unagi – Japanese eel
“Unagi” (Freshwater eel – うなぎ) is one of my favorite Japanese dishes. Before coming to Japan I didn’t really like any kind of eel, but the way it is prepared here and the softness of the species Anguilla japonica changed my mind. It is usually grilled with soy sauce (Kabayaki) and served on a bed of rice (Kabayaki-don).
If you have the opportunity, try it!
