Tokyo fest Markets Open
Japantopten.com , TOKYO Japan — If movie industry buyers and sellers are tired of the non-stop caravan of film sales events, they scarcely showed it as the Tokyo festival’s three-day market got underway Tuesday, less than a week after Pusan’s Asian Film Market wrapped.
Held on the 40th floor of the colossal Mori Tower in Tokyo’s colorful Roppongi district, the TIFFCOM corridors were busy, but not bursting. Many of the buyers and sellers were the same as had been spotted in Pusan.
If any deals were signed, they were being kept under wraps. The first day of the market is usually quiet on the signature front and Wednesday should show whether buyers are actually closing deals or are still just window shopping. Read more
Sado Japanese Tea Ceremony
There are several schools of Sado, or Japanese tea ceremony, also known as Chanoyu. Tea, in this case O-cha (green tea), is as integral to culture in Japan as coffee is in the US (more so, in fact) or ‘a cuppa’ is in the UK. Also, its health benefits are widely touted and generally accepted worldwide. And study of the tea ceremony is still considered part of the ‘proper’ education of any aspiring young ‘lady’. All these factors ensure that this ancient art form thrives even in modern-day Japan.
The earliest rituals involving tea came to Japan as a part of Buddhist meditation in the 6th century. Later, in the Kamakura Period (1185-1333), a Japanese priest named Eisai introduced tea seeds which became the source of much of the tea grown in Japan today. A century later the priest Eizon and the monk Ikkyu further promoted the tea ceremony. Shuko, a pupil of Ikkyu, became tea master to the Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa at whose villa (now known as Ginkakuji or the ‘Temple of the Siver Pavillion’ in Kyoto) the first purpose made tea room in Japan was built.

Special to The Japan Times
It’s Saturday morning and I’m sitting on the beach, struggling to strap on a pair of oversize flippers. When they are securely in place, I waddle down to the water’s edge and gingerly step into the sparkling, crystal ocean lapping Miyake Island.
News photo
March of time: A shrine lies half buried by a lava flow from one of the many volcanic eruptions that occur on Miyake Island.
“Ready to go?” asks Shuichi Taguchi, the owner of Dolphin Club TAG and my instructor for the day. Snorkeling gear in place, he and assistant guide Motomichi Takahashi lead our small group out of the protected shallows of the cove near Miyake’s ferry port. We glide over pockets of spongy coral, where electric -blue fish dart in and out of crevices in which occasional spiny sea urchins are to be seen. On the ocean floor, a bloated sea slug makes slow progress toward safety in a forest of leafy seaweed that looks like something I ate at last night’s dinner.
