            <title>Typography and the Web (Takumi's Blog)</title>
            <link>http://blog.takumishimada.com/2008/02/typography-and-the-web</link>
            <description>&lt;p&gt;Typography is important in all types of media, and it&amp;#8217;s increasingly becoming more important on the web too. Here&amp;#8217;s a good guide to web typography&amp;#8230;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote class=&quot;webkit-indent-blockquote&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 40px; border-width: initial; border-color: initial; border-style: none; padding: 0px&quot;&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.webtypography.net/&quot;&gt;The Elements of Typography Style Applied to the Web&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.webtypography.net/&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Bookmark it too! Definitely a useful resource. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.webtypography.net/&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

            <title>The World Needs Change (Takumi's Blog)</title>
            <link>http://blog.takumishimada.com/2008/01/the-world-needs-change</link>
            <description>&lt;p&gt;This next election will be one of the most important ones in not just American history, but international history as well. America is in a war we don&amp;#8217;t want to be in, the world faces global warming, our stance in the globalized world has weakened, and we need someone who can push us forward and bring the change that is needed. Someone who is young, who has grown up in a globalized world, who cares about our country&amp;#8217;s role in this new world, and who isn&amp;#8217;t afraid of going up against the threats of the 21st century (terrorists, communism, and in my opinion, lobbyists). We as a nation are not only responsible for ourselves in this new world, but we also have a responsibility of being the leader of the international community.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These are some of the things the next president will have to take responsibility for. What&amp;#8217;s at stake here is not just the American way of life, but the world as we know it. In these next few months, I&amp;#8217;ll be discussing why we need change, and why Obama is the right man to help lead that change.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(btw if you didn&amp;#8217;t catch it already, I support Barack Obama for president)&lt;/p&gt;

            <description>&lt;p&gt;My friend showed me an interesting series on YouTube about the case against Marc Emery:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What&amp;#8217;s your opinion on marijuana (and the legalization of it)? What about the so called &amp;#8220;US Empire&amp;#8221;?&lt;/p&gt;

            <title>Rogue Nation (Takumi's Blog)</title>
            <link>http://blog.takumishimada.com/2007/11/rogue-nation</link>
            <description>&lt;p&gt;In my social studies class this trimester our project was to research a particular topic, present it in 15 minutes, and discuss it in the class for about 1-2 hours. The topic we discussed today was about the war in Iraq. We talked about some of the lesser-known issues involving the reason behind going to war, and we talked about what the US should do now, and whether other countries should be involved in helping resolve conflicts and if their involvement would help ease Iraqi&amp;#8217;s view towards the western world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Rogue-Nation-American-Unilateralism-Intentions/dp/0465062792&quot; style=&quot;float: right&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://blog.takumishimada.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/roguenation.thumbnail.png&quot; alt=&quot;Rogue Nation&quot; height=&quot;128&quot; width=&quot;89&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Our teacher brought two books to class, one is called Rogue Nation by Clyde Prestowitz, and the other is called The U.N. Exposed by Eric Shawn. Rogue Nation is about America&amp;#8217;s abandonment of the ideals we had been promoting for the past thirty some years, and the U.N. Exposed is&amp;#8230; well, it&amp;#8217;s about the flaws of the United Nations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;ve only started reading Rogue Nation today, but there was one quote that I really agreed with and thought I&amp;#8217;d share. The quote is by former the former EU Ambassador to the United States Hugo Paemen, and goes like:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Domestically you [the United States] have the wonderful system of checks and balances, but in foreign policy you are completely unpredictable, and your pendulum can swing from one side to the other very quickly, while those of us who may be deeply affected have no opportunity even to make our voice heard, let alone to have any influence. This is really worrying because while your intentions are usually good, your actions are frequently informed by ignorance, ideology, or special interests and can have very damaging consequences for the rest of us.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think what Paemen says here is a really good point, especially in today&amp;#8217;s world where every country is more interconnected then ever before. It&amp;#8217;d be great to know what others think, so feel free to leave a response &lt;img src='http://blog.takumishimada.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;m not sure what I should say&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nytimes.com/packages/html/world/20071227_BHUTTO_FEATURE/index.html&quot;&gt;New York Times multimedia presentation&lt;/a&gt; of the few moments before and after her assassination.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Update: It seems I was a few days late in catching the news&amp;#8230; I haven&amp;#8217;t been online much because of winter break&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;
