	Essay on Hostessing in Japan
		She is considerably less expensive than her predecessor yet she shares the same values: to be the feminine ideal, to entertain, to listen, to be serious, to dazzle with her wit and charm.

		With the hostessing mystique shattered, I found myself a job as an English teacher, which is an option open to anybody with a degree and English as their native language.

	Bar (establishment):
		In most cases, bars typically cater to a particular segment of the population whether they be locals, tourists, students, prostitutes and their clients, members of the leather subculture, office workers in a particular area, Irish-Americans, country music enthusiasts or whatever.
		A bar can have a small area for dancing but it is not until this area is enlarged and becomes the primary focus that a bar is considered to be a nightclub or discothèque.
		Bars range from down-and-dirty "dives" which are little more than a dark room with a counter and some bottles of liquor, to elegant places of entertainment for the elite.

	Nasher Sculpture Center: Nasher
		In the sculptural oeuvre of Willem de Kooning, produced almost entirely between 1965 and 1974, the Nasher collection Hostess of 1973 along with the Clamdigger and Figure Seated on a Bench of 1972 and the Large Torso of 1974 stand as his major accomplishments.
		In the Hostess, anatomical forms are squeezed, gouged, and freely reconfigured with an abandon that capitalizes fully on the soft, extrudable quality of wet clay.
		Savagery, however, may have less to do with the figure than jocularity, her rolling contours perhaps materializing the convulsions of laughter with childlike, haptic spontaneity.
