  Hard times continue for local racetracks   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The rapid succession of closures of local, municipal-government-operated racetracks began with the shutting-down of Nakatsu and was followed by Masuda, Niigata, Sanjo, Ashikaga, Kaminoyama, the city-government-run Utsunomiya track, and last year, Takasaki.
Discussions on whether to continue operation or close down tracks turned serious from the start of November 2001, at which time the number of horses stabled at the aforementioned racetracks totaled 3,319.
The only place where the talk is not of shutdowns and hard times is in one part of southern Kanto.

 onsen
Japan is quite literally littered with onsen and bath houses so we decided to take it amongst ourselves to find an onsen and see for ourselves if these stories of therapeutic magic actually existed.
Off we went to Kaminoyama, a town even smaller than Yamagata but was famous for its hot springs.
We had fortunately snagged a map of the city and hopped a train and was there in less than 15 minutes.

 The Films of Shinsuke Ogawa
While recording this sustained and often violent conflict, Ogawa and his crew also began to investigate the local farming culture, and the pace and rhythm of village life.
Red Persimmons, on which Ogawa had begun production in the late Eighties, was completed in 2001 by his Chinese disciple, Xiaolian Peng.
Although the ostensible subject is the growing, drying, peeling and packaging of persimmons in the small village of Kaminoyama, the larger subject of the film, like all of Ogawa's work, is a record of the ineluctable forces of modernization that are slowly bringing to an end a centuries-old way of life.
