The Japan Files - A Look At Daily Life

Our secret traveller writes, "It rained all day May 15, so we spent the morning at the house then caught two separate trains to get to Kyoto. We travelled on the Hikari, a super fast bullet train. I discovered neither of my batteries had charged properly last night, so only a few photos. Most were taken from the train so not too clear."

B-17 And B-25 Over Arizona

This B17G was the workhorse of the allied war effort in Europe. The B25 was the first plane to bomb Japan.

The photography is HD, the planes are gorgeous, and, most notably, it is shot as the B17 takes off from Falcon Field in Mesa and then flies over the Superstition Mountains. to the east of Apache Junction and then on to Roosevelt and Canyon lakes on the east edge of the Phoenix valley. The backdrops are stunning. Music is from the miniseries John Adams.

"The Vegas Strip Steak is the latest and perhaps last steak to be found from the beef carcass," said Jacob Nelson, a value-added meat processing specialist (and owner of the best job title of all time) at the Robert M. Kerr Food & Agricultural Products Center of Oklahoma State University. The Vegas Strip is the brainchild of Tony Mata, of industry group Mata & Associates, who approached Nelson and the FAPC for help developing the cut.
