One point Japanese - - - Mitsumori
4月
21日
Mitsumori is an art rather than science. In Japan, Mitsumori often is a final price no matter what. So, if you somehow loose the control of the cost and over run your budget, you still have to honor your Mitsumori. That is the reason why someone who knows what he or she is doing should only do it.
It is true in PSPINC business practice. If we tell you what it costs, that is the price that you will be charged even when we screw up in estimate. If you every feel that you are over charged by PSPINC, please let me know personally. I will take care of it.

I think I will keep belonging to this group to just keep my eyes on it. Once in a while, there is something that I reply to. I think what this group is good for.
My camera is at the repair shop.

I bought this camera last fall at Circuit City closing sale. It was well under anyone was (still is) selling. Now, without G10, I am carrying around Nikon D70 (my trusted digital SLR). It takes great pictures, but it is bulky.
Two things that I am hoping: (1) I hope I can get my G10 back soon: (2) I hope the repair does not cost too much.

One Point Japanese - - - Zaibatsu
4月
17日
Zai = Money (Asset)
Batsu = Group based on blood, region or collage (School)
Zaibatsu means, financial relationship of the companies based on family.
You are born belonging to Zaibatsu. It is very rare you become a part of Zaibatsu. Following are the four Zaibatsu.
Mitsubishi
Mitsui
Sumitomo
Yasuda
And there are few more small (still big) Zaibatsu in Japan.
How powerful was (is) Zaibatsu?
One of the largest Zaibatsu in Japan Suzuki Shoten went out of business early 1900s. But this company left following companies.
Kobe Steel
Teijin
Shinko Dentetsu
Sapporo Beer
Showa Shell Oil
Mitsui Toatsu
Fuji Film
Shojitsu
Nippon Seifun
Nihon Kaiun
Taosyo Seimei
Daiwa Seimei
Those are few of the companies that Suzuki Shoten (privately held company) left behind when they close their door. This shows how much influence Zaibatsu have in Japanese economy.
At the end of World War II, zaibatsu became the target of Japanese reform and they were not longer allowed to operate using one Zaibatsu name. When Zaibatsu was no longer, the new name came up Keiretsu is the word used now days to show the preferred relationship of the companies.
One point Business Japanese - - - Kaizen
4月
17日
It is often used in manufacturing. In order to Zen (Better), one must find Aku (Bad) or waste. Once Aku is found, find the way to make it better. That process is called Kaizen.
When you really think about Kaizen, that what Japanese do best. Japanese are not known for their invention. They just make things better by making it lighter, smaller, faster, safer and cheaper. Those are Kaizen.
This philosophy works in the backbone of PSPINC business. We see a lot of time, money and sleep wasted in building and maintaining IT infrastructure in the world. By providing hosted solutions for basic needs like Web and Email, we will save people money and time with more reliability. That is Kaizen.
