  Yoshihiro Yasuda - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yoshihiro Yasuda (born 1948) is considered one of Japan’s most experienced trial attorneys and one of the most renowned members of the Japanese Bar Association.
Yasuda was Japan’s only trial attorney that agreed to defend Shoko Asahara, founder of the controversial Buddhist religious group accused of various crimes, including the Tokyo subway sarin gas attack.
In 1998 Yasuda was charged with ‘obstruction of justice’ and consequently could not direct the efforts of the defence team, which ‘jeopardized Shoko Asahara’s right to fair trial’ according to Amnesty International.

 Sushi Yasuda   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Yasuda is renowned as a tuna specialist – he typically offers seven or eight options for tuna "fattiness" that apply to his hon-maguro (bluefin) and mebachi-maguro (big-eye) tunas.
Yasuda's dexterity at manipulating the oily content of his slices is virtually unlimited and he prepares a wide range of akami (lean), chutoro (medium fatty), and otoro (high fatty) cuts.
Yasuda uses a mix of Japanese short and medium grain rice (grown domestically) combined with Japanese red and white rice vinegars and Japanese sea salt and sugar.

 Burroughs Wellcome Fund: Dr. Ryohei Yasuda
The reason for the movie’s allure is that it vividly portrays the rotation of a single protein enzyme, which Dr. Yasuda cleverly tagged with a much larger protein complex and imaged the resulting motion through a microscope.
Dr. Yasuda’s achievement in imaging the enzyme, called F1-ATPase, while he was still working on his Ph.D. at Keio University in Japan, illustrates the creativity that the young biophysicist has brought to his research.
Dr. Yasuda was not always interested in biophysics, but it was a remarkable run of what he calls “fortunate bad luck” that led him into the field.

 Eddy Kurushima and Kim Yasuda
Like the photograph of Yasuda's father, in which only his face is circularly framed at a distance from the picture-plane-as if through the far end of a tube-his presence both approaches and recedes.
In a sense, Yasuda's final act of homage is to allow her father to remain unrecuperable and complex, uncontained by the iconicity of objects.
Yasuda's multimedia installations position themselves between the solace and slippage of memory, continuing to see and re-see the multiple possibilities of being.

Yasuda became fascinated with the complex network of public transportation in Tokyo, in particular the underground landscape of subways.
Equally compelling to Yasuda was the way in which the Japanese conducted themselves in these confined spaces, "honoring the homogeneous patterning of the system while negotiating the invisible boundaries between one another." The Subscape series investigates these cultural differences.

 Amazon.com: An Alaskan Tale by Jiro Nitta: Books: Motokuni Eto   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
This is the first English translation of the life story of Frank Yasuda, a Japanese fisherman who drifted ashore near Nome, Alaska at the end of the last century, built the settlement of Beaver, and was eventually responsible for establishing the close friendship between Alaska and Japan.
Jiro Nitta, one of the most renowned contemporary writers in Japan, wrote the book based on Yasuda's life, entitled "Alaska Monogatari (An Alaskan Story)." It became a bestseller in Japan and sold over 780,000 copies.
While "Alaska Monogatari" should be considered fiction spun around Frank Yasuda's life, not a true biography, it is, nevertheless, a moving story of one man's dedication to the natives of Alaska and a tribute to the great respect with which he was held by all Alaskans who knew him.

A changing list of accompanying appetizers might include a tangle of a number of kinds of fresh seaweed that’s more distinguished than any other seaweed salad in town; fried eel backbones that offer just the right amount of crispiness and hint of saltiness; and smooth and subtle monkfish liver with a ponzu dipping sauce.
