The Japan Times | Yen for Living

http://blog.japantimes.co.jp/yen-for-living/ We all know Japanese people prefer new stuff — new homes, new rice, new prime ministers every 12 months — which may explain why the used clothing business isn’t as big here as it is in other countries. According to the Asahi Shimbun, 50 percent of discarded used clothing in America is recycled , either commercially or as contributions, and the portion in South Korea is 80 percent. In Japan, it’s only 20 percent, meaning that the rest is simply trashed.
EKŌ-Haus in Düsseldorf Die über 6500 Japaner in Düsseldorf bilden die einzige Japantown Deutschlands. Düsseldorf ist zudem ein wichtiges Zentrum japanischer Wirtschaftsaktivitäten in Europa. [1] Obwohl die Japaner als siebtgrößte [2] ausländische Bevölkerungsgruppe eine kleine Minderheit bilden, prägen sie seit über 50 Jahren das Stadtbild und bereichern das wirtschaftliche und kulturelle Leben der Stadt. Die meisten in Düsseldorf lebenden Japaner wurden von ihren Arbeitgebern nach Deutschland entsandt und sind für wenige Jahre oder kurzfristige Einsätze in der Stadt. Es handelt sich überwiegend um gutbezahlte Spezialisten und Führungskräfte sowie deren Familienangehörige.

Nikko's Bronze Bell by Stefano Costanzo in Bell (instrument), Nikkō Tōshō-gū on Fotopedia - The Photo Encyclopedia

A bell (old Saxon: bellan , to bawl or bellow) is a simple sound -making device. The bell is a percussion instrument and an idiophone . Its form is usually a hollow, cup-shaped acoustic resonator , which vibrates upon being struck. The striking implement can be a tongue suspended within the bell, known as a clapper , a separate mallet or hammer, or in small bells a small loose sphere enclosed within the body of the bell. http://www.fotopedia.com/items/f99mkad2ks77v-F1ryW9EJDa8
