Sometimes I wish the Star Trek Universal Translators were already here. But we’re getting closer. Here’s a Google Translate version of an article that came out in Die Zeit newspaper a couple of months ago that cites me and others about Japan’s political problems with creating an immigration policy. JAPAN Old and xenophobic Japan on the day of elections: the economy is running out of workers. To Ezekiel Ramat would be the Japanese economy actually tear. [??] The contents Ramat knows that from his training at home. “I’m learning every day,” says Ramat. An immigration campaign would be political suicide For decades, Japan has been in a shaky position. Even today, every fourth Japanese is over 65 years old . Now there is a lack of skilled labor, falling tax revenues, and no one knows who is going to pay in the future the growing pension claims.
Life was hard, love was easy. In San Miguel, Zambales, 74-year old Magdalena sleeps with her husband Julian under a tent under the stars The Ramelo couple's sleeping quarters.
Photo by Carlo Gabuco, 9 Feb 2013. ZAMBALES, Philippines - The tent sits empty. It is empty most of the day, except for the few hours in the afternoon when the village children of San Miguel are let out from school. Then there is singing, the flower opens, the flower closes, sand sprays from a dozen kicking feet, while a ring spins around a giggling brown-cheeked rose. Mostly there is only the tent, and the boats, and the long strip of beach. Julian stands on the beach. Julian and Magdalena. A long time ago, Julian fell in love. Then Julian came along. Magdalena and her Julian.
Every night, Julian would come home from sea with the rest of the village men. Life was hard, says Magdalena, but love was easy. She is 74 years old today, her skin is like parchment, but there are blue rhinestones dangling from her ears. Julian is 81 years old. Experts agree Filipino health workers need better support. Mark Twain on Plagiarism and Originality: "All Ideas Are Second-Hand" Uncreative Writing: Redefining Language and Authorship in the Digital Age. By Maria Popova “An updated notion of genius would have to center around one’s mastery of information and its dissemination.”
“And your way, is it really YOUR way? ,” Henry Miller famously asked. “Substantially all ideas are second-hand, consciously and unconsciously drawn from a million outside sources,” Mark Twain consoled Helen Keller when she was accused of plagiarism. Even our brains might be wired for the necessary forgettings of creativity. A recent interview on The Awl reminded me of a wonderful book by Kenneth Goldsmith — MoMA’s first poetry laureate, founder of the massive grassroots audio archive Ubu Web, and professor at my alma mater, UPenn’s Kelly Writers House — titled Uncreative Writing: Managing Language in the Digital Age (public library; UK).
