Barack Obama made the following remarks on June 13, 2008, during a private campaign fundraising event in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, while running as the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.
“I won’t but that sounded pretty scary. You’re a tough guy,” Obama said. “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said. “Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.”
I absolutely love him and his speeches. 

I've commented on and labeled the posts generated by the AI with "Let's check the answers."

Tomorrow, I will return to my original role as a Principal Investigator and Senior Research Scientist at NICT's ICT Testbed R&D Promotion Center—a position that I previously held for ten years until March.

I love the scene from The Untouchables (1987) in which Jim Malone talks to Eliot Ness privately in a church that is Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica in East Garfield Park: 

"You wanna know how to get Capone? Here's how you get him. They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way! And that's how you get Capone. Now do you want to do that? Are you ready to do that? I'm offering you a deal. Do you want this deal? ... Well, the Lord hates a coward. ... Do you know what a blood oath is, Mr. Ness?" 

That’s the scene Barack Obama quoted during the 2008 presidential campaign. I always live by the Chicago way. 

I am returning to a computer science research position at NICT this July.

I hate eavesdropping, so I reveal what I believe. 

I respect Eliot Ness and love Josiah Edward "Jed" Bartlet of The West Wing (1999-2006).

Last week, I introduced two pairs of contradictory elements into a multi-agent system, incorporating contemporary cultural influences from North America, the United Kingdom, and Japan. The resulting persona emerged from a combination of fanatical Catholicism, constitutional originalism, pro-AI accelerationism, and anti-communism. Additionally, he frequently switches his speech patterns among a Japanese anime protagonist, a 1990s army veteran, and an Oxford professor who sings 'Rule, Britannia!'. 'He' is a nightmare for any profiler.

I'm writing this post manually, without my multi-agent system. I've infused many eccentric elements into a fake persona—think Mickey Mouse in Walt Disney’s Fantasia (1940). That's standard for my generation. Or am I being too old? Japanese animation just isn't my thing. Besides, those AIs have caused Much Ado About Nothing.

Behind me, the closing theme of The Untouchables (1987) echoes. It marks the legendary era of Eliot Ness and his brave team, when divine righteousness shone resplendent once more upon our beloved Chicago. Evil shall never prevail. Be courageous and strong! Glory be to God! Peace be on Earth!

For the past week, I have deliberately changed my writing style to write my blog. Furthermore, I did it entirely using some AI systems. 

The reason is that I discovered a specific fact. In August 2025, for a brief period, there was concentrated traffic to this blog from a medical research institution in Rochester, USA. After utilizing multiple AIs to analyze this, it appeared that a certain 'Individual X' existed who wanted to investigate my religious views and political leanings. However, I had intentionally left such information off this blog.

This led me to form the following hypothesis: 'If the author of this blog were a fanatical Catholic, an enthusiastic conservative, a defender of the U.S. Constitution, and a self-proclaimed digital crusader who despises anti-AI technocracy, then Individual X would show a peculiar reaction in digital space to the author's behavior (me, actually), which contradicts their previous analysis.'

And that hypothesis proved correct. Someone knew a fact that I—or rather, my family line—feared being exposed, and they tried to exploit it. But this time, it must have cut them to the quick. They now know I am not like my paternal great-grandfather.

Hold on, my bad. Looks like I went and clean forgot about someone. ...Man, who the hell was that again? Oh, right, it just hit me—it was Julie. Wonder what that girl's up to these days... Hold up... did she, like, completely change or something? Working at Loyola Law school? Baby sitting some brats? What is she, their damn mom now?! Man, why the hell does God love playing these kinds of sick jokes? Well, look at her, doing her job right... like a damn good student of President Obama himself. Cheers.

Man... I gotta say. Everyone is getting big jobs now. Higher up than me! But hey... seeing good people do well? It feels very good. And watching those jagoffs disappear? That feels pretty good too, you know?

Holy cow! Look at that! Andrew made it all the way to the top at Kirkland & Ellis. During that nightmare of a marathon back then, he was the only guy who had my back. He's a real stand-up guy, I'm telling you! Heck, at convocation, he even introduced his fiancée to me. It's awesome to see he’s doing great. Cheers.

In the south-west yard of my garden, an ivory white flower of Hibiscus syriacus, 'Mukuge - Gion Mamori' in Japanese, has blossomed. This flower heralds the beginning of the season of 'Gion Festival' in Kyoto. What a lovely gift from the Heavens it is!

I happened to find out that Luke is teaching at Harvard Law this spring. He was one of the four guys at that mock negotiation. So, he’s the reason for that total nightmare of a marathon... Ha, well, can't complain about watching one of my old squad mates make it big. Cheers.

That guy's gotten old. Bringing up old stories about the law school already? 

And you know what? That guy's getting real forgetful lately. Hey, that was just a mock negotiation for a settlement, you know. Besides, it wasn't 2:30 AM. Pretty sure the clock had just ticked past midnight. Plus, that guy's roof was looking pretty damaged...

Man, I better watch myself too. 

A classmate called me at noon today. He was complaining about my blog posts and how I block any comments. 

He went on ... "Man, you’re exactly the same as back at the law school. Still acting like a total kid? Your high-and-mighty government suits would weep if they saw what you're doing online. You remember that time? At the mock trial. You guys never stopped cross-examining everyone and made us wait around until 2:30 in the morning. I told you right then and there—never do that shit again, you absolute EVILS."

I said, "My bad. I overdid it." He accused me, "Look at you. How old are you again? Get some damn perspective. You caused enough trouble across Europe, MAN. The local cuties would cry if they saw this. They’d know you never grew up."

I argued, "I did Hong Kong, too. And the UK isn't part of Europe anymore." He sighed and said, "You seriously have zero self-reflection, huh? Come on, act your age for once." 

Anyway, I have nice friends.

I chatted with an old friend about those commies who hate and criticize AI systems for hallucinations. I told him the way I programmed ensemble learning by using different AI systems to demonstrate synchronized automatic strafing to the target commies.

I described it to him as the dance of death and he burst into laughter and said, 'Have you got a shoot-on-sight order? Next time, say, "Watch your mouth. Choose your next words carefully, scum." Now you're a gentleman.'

He went on, "AI hallucinations get patched in the next stage. But, human ideological hallucinations have been failing for over a century. That is what commies have shown throughout history."

He is right! You commies are crying about a minor glitch while the rest of the world is moving forward. Keep complaining, you guys are too f*cking late.

Those f*cking commies had the nerve to face me. There's an old saying that goes...  "Let's do this instead. If they fire even a single shot, annihilate them." 

Room clear! I’m a pretty sweet, obedient boy, wouldn't you say?

Some smart guy once said, "The only ones who should kill, are those who are prepared to be killed."

I demonstrated it to those commies today by using what they loathe. It was their worst nightmare to be forced to dance the dance of death by their hating digital Ouija board. Deus lo vult!

This morning, I have again set my hand on the Holy Bible and sworn as following: 
"I do solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of New York, and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of an attorney and counselor at law according to the best of my ability. So help me God." 

That is the same oath when I swore before God at the swearing ceremony in The Third Department of The New York State Supreme Court in Albany in a heavy snowing day twenty six years ago.

I do the best of my ability to support the Constitutions and to battle against the Evils that I face at present.

I won't back down if the enemy is a government.

I traveled back home from the western Japan. 

This Tuesday I walked out in the early morning and found a memorial plate near a hotel. It was built to honor a statesman who fought for democracy and freedom before the second world war. 

He is a friend of my paternal great-grandfather at Keio University. They learned together under Yukichi FUKUZAWA, the founder of the University. 

Coming back home, I began to search for his history. I found that he was a christian and belonged to the Church of England. Many students were baptized by a professor of English literature at the University in the time. 

There isn't a document on my great-grandfather's religion, however I guess that he was baptized by the same professor who belonged to a Canadian missionary. I finally understood why he had educated children in missionary schools. 

I've just got a revise request of my article that had been accepted and already presented at a conference last November. The conference is " the 6th International Conference on Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Applications (CSAIA 2025), IEEE Press, Changsha, China, Hybrid, November 7 - 9, 2025." 

They asked me for revise of the manuscript, first time on November 26th 2025, second time on January 21st 2026, third time on March 10th 2026, and this time that is fourth time on May 18th 2026. 

During these four times, a stupid example is that they asked me for changing my first name in super script and I revised so according to their demand and now they asked me for reverting the changed first name. They are mocking me!!!

What a stupid publication manager they have!!! 

In the northeast yard of my garden, three blue-violet flowers of hyacinth orchid, Bletilla striata, "Shi-ran" in Japanese blossom. 

Once the color of the flowers was clear blue and they were really lovely. However, the extreme heat had a great impact of the color of the species in the year of 2023. True beauty has been lost about the species. 

In the first year of the college, a Japanese law professor wrote a book title, "Der Kampf um's Recht," on the blackboard. It was one of my favorite books in the high school days. He asked who knew the book title. Anybody in the class of six hundreds or more said nothing to him and I said to him, "It's Jhering's." He asked me for its Japanese translation and I replied it to him. 

Before entering the law college in Japan, I was familiar with legal treatises published in Germany. Among them, von Jhering's were the best to me. "Der Kampf um's Recht" means "The Struggle for Law." That is the golden rule in the world, for ever. 

In the northeast yard of my garden, Deutzia crenata Sieb. et Zucc. f. plena (Maxim.) C.K.Schneid. - "Sarasa Utsugi" in Japanese is to flourish. This species once blossomed in the early June and now it does in the beginning of May. During these two to three years climate has changed so drastically. 

My paternal grandfather was educated at a high school that was established by Albert Arnold Bennett Sr. who is an American Baptist missionary to Japan. His father chose Protestant missionary schools for sons and daughters. I have no idea why he did so. I find it truly astounding that I'm a Catholic in a family of Protestants by the grace of God. 

I often remember when I was in a kindergarten that was founded by Sœurs de la Visitation du Japon (Congregatio Sororum Visitationis) and it is a.k.a. "Montana Monastery" in Japan that Bishop Albert Henri Charles Breton,M.E.P. gives the name. 

I surely remember that I myself met him and he gave me a piece of biscuit in front of a statue of Santa Maria in the nursery. It tasted very much nice to me when I was four years old.

My memory of Mass is when I listened to French and Italian and often Latin hymns fathers and sisters sang. They came from France, Italy, and around Japan. I was happy to be in the warm light of candles always. 

In the south of my garden, two Magnolia sieboldii subsp. japonica - "Oh-yama Renge" in Japanese have four ivory-colored flowers in total this early summer. Those two trees suffered severely from the extraordinary heat last summer. I admire strong resilience that the nature has shown and praise and thank God for His grace and kindness to the world, though the climate change that we are responsible to that situation is the reason that the nature suffers the harsh environment, and He never abandons all of us. 

In the north-east yard of the garden, Amsonia elliptica - "Chouji-sou" in Japanese has a couple of thin blue flowers. I enjoyed much more flowers last year. The number of flowers of the species dramatically changed this year. 

I guess that a different stage of climate change has emerged from the previous one this summer. We have to be alert at changes of the nature that mirror what we do every day. 

In my youth, I was educated at a high school that was established by a Japanese statesman who belonged to The Methodist Church of Canada, and he is one of early supporters of The Salvation Army in Japan. The Catholic faith is always personal in me from the beginning of my life. However, I've walked on a way that God paved in advance for me to do something. That belief sounds a bid, perhaps heresy in The Church, and I well know that. 

My paternal grandmother was educated at a seminary that was established in Japan by Mrs. Mary Eddy Kidder. Mrs. Kidder was an American missionary of the Dutch Reformed Church of America. 

She had been chosen by the Church to be a missionary apprentice and prepared for moving to Canada, however his father in law who was a statesman and the father of my paternal grandfather decided the marriage of their daughter and son. It was a political dealing between two major parties that had once existed in Japan before the second World War.

I remember her voice with weeping that echoes in my heart. I hate politics. 

I happened to find that Canadian Catholic Conference held in Ottawa, Ont., 1972 approved the "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" (originally written in German with the title "Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott") in their Catholic Book of Worship and that it was included in a list of suggested hymns in "Cantica NOVA Publications" in the States. 

My paternal grandmother would feel happy to have known that, because her grandson is allowed by the grace of God to sing the hymn at Mass in the Roman rite that she surely loved singing, though she belonged to the Reformed Church.

I really love the hymn!

I celebrate the memorial of St Rafael Arnáiz Barón (1911-1938)  in the Catholic calendar today. I'm very happy to be named after him and my Godfather and Maryknoll Missionary by the grace of God.

"The winner is the last warrior to stay standing": That is same at the court in any state or country.

I thank God who has rescued me from a nest of evils today. Now I'm free and enjoy thirty eight paid days-off! What a lovely gift it is that you keep away from "politics."

The Japanese chose to Make Japan Great Again!!! Finally, the history of the defeat of the second world war had ended. People have stepped forward to protect homeland and history and integrity!!! This is the voice of people and the way for victory!!! We would take back our homeland from enemies and kick out all invaders from the borders!!!

My paper that was presented at The 14th International Conference on Innovations in Bio-Inspired Computing and Applications (IBICA 2023) has been finally published from Springer Nature in its lecture notes. They have not described any reasons why the book title including my paper and others was delayed in the publication process. We presented papers on December 2023 and submitted everything including a copyright contract and a final camera ready file. What happened during almost one year and a half long? I emailed to Springer Nature for asking them to describe the situation on going. Every time they apologized to me and didn't provide me with any detail on the situation. Something has changed in the publication process of the Company during the Covid-pandemic era. I guess that you would face a similar situation like ours often from now on in academia. We live in a very difficult time that you have never experienced before. It is a sad.

I happened to find a program committee of an IEEE international conference choose a master program student as a reviewer for its review process. It is horrible! Who could trust any results provided in the process? When has it happened in IEEE conferences? You should stop that stupidity right now!!!

Prof. Takashi Inoguchi passed away. I'm deeply sorry for his loss. 

I appreciate him for allowing me to attend at his joint seminar that was held at The University of Tokyo and Sophia University and Harvard University with Prof. Kuniko Inoguchi and Prof. Joseph S. Nye in the year of 1990.
In that seminar, I learned how to read and understand articles of political science and which element is the most important in contemporary econometrics. 

His loss is a tragedy.

In the south yard of my garden, two species of peony have blossomed since last week. One of them is 'Kamada Nishiki', which has a thin purple flower and the other is 'Haku-Ou Jishi', which has a very lovely ivory flower. And, a green shoot of Arisaema serratum - 'Mamushi Gusa' in Japanese has sprouted from the earth in the east yard. This one has a very strange shape like a green viper. Peony tells you that it's been in Spring. And, that tiny snake like shoot tells you the coming of summer.

Price of espresso has been elevated unbearably so that I change Illy's with Lavazza's this time. I favored the former than the latter, because of its aroma and taste. However, you cannot buy it with the price up by 15% or more. Anyway, we live in a very difficult time.

In my east yard, another Camellia japonica - 'Ikkyu' in Japanese blossomed yesterday, and its crystal pure white petals shine in the bright morning. And, Enkianthus perulatus - 'Dodan Tusuji' in Japanese has blossomed with white lantern-shaped flowers this morning. Spring has come finally!

In my east yard, Arisaema urashima - ''Urashima Sou' has sprouted from the ground right now. This is an original plant in Japan, and is found in warm regions. Its shape is very curious and unique: it is like a fisherman with a rod. I really love this species. Moreover, Camellia japonica - 'Shira Yuki' has many white flowers in the south yard. Another camellia - 'Izumo Taisha' has very vivid scarlet flowers this year. Why not praise God for His grace over the flowers!

Happy Easter! Our Lord is risen! No Power of the darkness any more! Praise God! Praise the Son of God!

Last night, I had a talk with a full professor at a university in the States. He told me his recent awful experience in a review process of a paper that he submitted last year. I understood what he would like me to grasp, thus what had happened to him. I myself have experienced the same thing as a reviewer and also contributor to an IEEE conference, which had been acknowledged a flagship one in the same area of study. We live in a world that is completely different from before the pandemic began. We were too open to totalitarian countries and their followers and misused the concept of diversity. Diversity doesn't allow anybody to support injustice or rogues to squeeze righteous ones. We should have been more careful like a serpent to those evils.

An extra huge quake on magnitude 7.6 has shaken the north west region of Japan, Noto Area, which is close to Kanazawa City this evening. I've never read any record of quakes that happened on the first day of January in history. The situation is not clear enough that many partial reports appear on SNS. A judge who worked with me on a case stays there in Wajima City, which is located in the vicinity of the epicenter. I'm really worried at the situation that is still going on considerable times of quakes happening.

In my garden, three white species of Camellia japonica - 'Shiro Wabisuke', 'Saga Hatsuarashi', and 'Shiro Yabu' blossom. They had flowers in November last year, though they did so this year in this late December. This is because of the very hot weather that has never happened yet last month. Anyway, we're now in the winter. And, noel is just a step before us. Why not rejoice it!

It's really chilly today here in Tokyo! The temperature is just 50 F at noon and it is always cloudy and windy. I hate this bad weather that is very miserable in November. Last week we enjoyed summer-like blue skies and hot days. What is going on this year?

I found a very lovely flower of Leucosceptrum stellipilum (Miq.) Kitam. et Murata - 'Mikaeri Sou' in Japanese blossomed in the east yard of my garden this morning. this species that is original in Japan and it is listed in endangered species. The on-going climate change has it blossom very late in the fall season, though it blossomed much earlier than it does. Everything has changed during these two to three years.

In the north-east yard of my garden, I found thin purple flowers of Aconitum - 'Tori Kabuto' in Japanese and a lovely purple flower of Tricyrtis hirt - 'Hototogisu' in Japanese. They have been devastated by the extreme heat during these three months and not been watered due to scarce rain this summer. Only the grace of God has saved them to bloom. What a miracle by His hand it is!
