  • From the Desk of the Consul-General
    From the Desk of the Consul-General Consul-General Dr. Kazayuki Katayama September 2013-August 2015 The Consulate-General of Japan in Detroit Detroit, MI August 2015 From the Desk of Consul General of Japan in Detroit (Preface) I have served for nearly two years as the Consul General of Japan, in my jurisdiction of both Michigan and Ohio, from September, 2013 to August, 2015. I focused on the promotion of economics, politics, culture, public relations education and consular affairs, as well as the expansion of person-to-person exchanges in various areas between Japan and the 2 states. The consulate opened in 1993 and I am the 10th Consul General. During my term, I often visited local governments, companies, universities and colleges, Japanese weekend schools, branches of the Japan-America Society and the Japanese associations in various parts of the 2 states in order to foster the understanding of Japan’s policies, including its foreign policy, among the Americans here. I traveled to Ohio 66 times and Michigan (beyond Metro Detroit) 45 times. I visited universities/colleges 43 times, companies 24 times and Japanese weekend schools 14 times. I recited approximately 110 speeches and lecture and invited guests to my residence, to serve them Japanese food and Sake, about 200 times. My goals in participating in these activities were twofold. First, I aimed to convince Americans that Japan is a trustworthy and strong partner to the U.S. Second, I earnestly set out to provide quality services to local Japanese residence and portray the Consulate General as both conscientious and dependable.

  • Outlaw Masters of Japanese Film Dedicated to the Memory of My Late Father, Paul R
    Outlaw Masters Of Japanese Film Dedicated to the memory of my late father, Paul R. Desjardins, 1919–2003, who went through hell his last few years and was consequently unable to finish his own book on his pioneering work in electron microscopy (in the field of plant pathology). Also to my mother, Rosemary, who has had her own gauntlet to run in the last year and has managed to come out the other side. Both my parents have always been loyal, loving and there for me, never turning their backs on me during my extended period of raising hell. To my girl, Lynne Margulies, a truly great soulmate in all things, including the creative process. And to the memory of late director Kinji Fukasaku, a great inspiration to anyone daring to think of giving up in the face of adversity. I was lucky to get to know him and to consider him as a mentor as well as a friend. OUTLAW MASTERS OF JAPANESE FILM CHRIS D.

These books, which The shortest definition of graphic novels describes Ilook like comics on steroids, seem to have near them as “book-length comic books.” A definition used miraculous properties. They attract reluctant readers by librarians refers to them as book-length narratives and bookworms. They lure teen boys, while retaining told using a combination of words and sequential art, the qualities beloved by teen girls. They work for ESL often presented in comic book style. The constant in students (Krashen 54), teach visual literacy (Gorman both definitions is “comic book.” Because the image of 9-10) and sequencing, and, above all else, they are comic books seems to fuel resistance to graphic novels wildly popular with an adolescent audience.

Instead of thinking everything, including walk your dog and make your of them as a genre, it is necessary to think of them as teeth whiter. a format.
