A Rough Time No Matter Where You Are
Recently, Toyota announced that they would be suspending production for eleven days in February and March. The company is dealing with a union, which surprised me. Subaru had a very, very tiny increase in sales for 2008. For the first time ever in its seventy years of manufacturing, Toyota is dealing with an operating loss. Mitsubishi is also affected, cutting some 900 additional workers.
I personally hope the business picks up so that real changes can be made to the automotive industry. If the industry improves, they can start working on improved auto technology which will be better for all of us in the long run.
The world is watching Japan with the hopes that an end to the Gaza conflict will be imminent with Japan’s help. In addition to emergency aid, Japan is imploring Israel and Palestine to put an end to the violence. So not only is Japan working toward Climate diplomacy, they are also trying to push peace in the holy land.
For those looking to add soy to their diet, just use a magic bullet. Put one cup soy milk, one cup ice, and one tablespoon instant coffee in your magic bullet blender and blend up a delicious drink that packs a punch. The coffee counters the bitter taste of the soy. It’s delicious. Just be careful, boys. There’s a quasi progesterone in soy! If you’re concerned about motility and sperm count, you may want to skip the soy.
