Thanks to everyone for coming out for our 3rd Annual JETAA Halloween Party!
We had over 20 people at the party this year and the costumes this year were the awesome! We had belly dancers, black cats, karate kids, lounge singers, Velma from Scooby-Doo. Basically, it was a great mix of costumes and fun!
The various costumes made it difficult for our judge, Kaneko Yayoi from the Consulate, to choose a winner in the costume contest for:
- Best Costume
- Best Japan-related Costume
Winning for best Japan-related was Sally Sheppard with "Miss Japan", complete with sash and tiara. She represented all that was good in Japanese beauty pageants!
Winning for best overall costume went to Liz Anzel for her "Child of the 80's". It was truly an amazing site, she was wearing almost every trendy item from the '80's, right down to the swatch watch and leg-warmers!
Although there wasn't a category, cutest baby costume went to Claire Schnyder for her cute fairy princess and cow costumes.

2005 Japanese-Language Proficiency Test
December 4th, 2005 The Japan Foundation administers the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) once a year in December in order to evaluate and certify the language proficiency of non-native speakers of Japanese. Each year, the JLPT has met with an enthusiastic response from the public. Examinees numbered more than 300,000 last year, in as many as 39 countries. The test has four different levels (Level 1 being the most proficient level and Level 4 the beginner level); the examinee can choose the level that best matches his or her ability and training.
Each test is made up of three sections: writing-vocabulary (100 points); listening (100 points); reading-grammar (200 points). The passing scores are 70% or higher for Level 1, and 60% for Level 2, 3, and 4. The Japan Foundation, Los Angeles administers the JLPT at 8 test sites in the US through local host institutions.
Be sure not to miss the registration deadline of October 7th. US Test Sites: Honolulu, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Atlanta, Washington D.C., New York To register (August 1 – October 7 ONLY) or for more information, please visit: http://www.jflalc.org/?act=tpt&id=8

Soccer mom’s-for-the-day, Sara Ogle and Sally Shepard, loaded two groups into the stylish mini-vans rented for the day’s adventure and set off into the sun to the mythical Forest Grove. Along the way we saw construction and huge round-abouts, waiting anxiously to be built up around and about. Once at SakeOne, we made our way into the tasting room, filled with sake and knick-knacks to buy once you’d had enough sake to cloud your judgment.
Listening to Radiohead, we sipped away on such gems as the Diamond and the Pearl sake. Lulled and relaxed, we were led into the sakery, or kura in Japanese, where the sake process takes place. Rebecca was our tour guide, and while it felt like a whirlwind pace, it could’ve just been the sake slowing us down. We learned that Sake One is the third largest “winery” in Oregon and that the sake comes from rice grown in California.
There are a lot of steps to making sake and a lot of rooms and vats and piping to make it in- best check out Sake One’s website, www.sakeone.com, for more details. The least you need to know is that koji, is the magic mold that turns the rice into rice with alcohol (along with its friend moto, the friendly yeast starter- stay tuned for a new anime series YET, but definitely to be developed by someone)!
Back inside the tasting room, we advanced to samples of cocktails made with sake. The strawberry sakerita was a big hit as well as the Raspberry Lemonade saketini. A Forest Grove Times photographer was there taking pictures, perhaps featuring some of our group! While we were a bit saddened that the tasting room is not a complete bar, and therefore couldn’t make up some of the tantalizing recipes featured in their brochure, the taster samples were quite generous and the servers very patient!
Purchases were made and shared outside on Sake One’s deck. There were huge bottles, little bottles, wrapped bottles, and cold bottles. I’m pleased to say the plum sake tasted very much like the ume chu-hai of my time in Japan. And that taste was what I was missing in my life.
Back at the Oregon zoo compound, we lounged outside, building up an appetite. Soon enough, Samurai Bento showed up and delivered bentos for all. Their bentos were so yummy we happily indulged with our fingers -potato salad and all- until they could return with some chopsticks!
Aside from JET alumni, we had some prospective JETs who allowed us alums the coveted chance to go on and on and on about Japan and then be asked MORE questions!!! A recent NOVA returnee was also in attendance- he found out about the outing through an internet search!
The whole cake-and-eat-it-too part of the whole venture is that even though we were simply sipping sake, we were also able to promote ALL THREE segments of JETAA’s mission: to 1 ) provide a professional/social network for JET alumni (and in what a relaxed setting!); 2) serve as a resource to the Portland Japanese Consulate in recruitment and training of new JETs (how do we apply for an honorarium?); and 3) promote int'l understanding on a local level through cultural exchange & community activities (got all three parts to this one)! Way to go!
JETAA Portland is hoping that you can help volunteer at this year's Obon Festival at the Japanese Gardens. The ceremony is closed to the public, but there is no charge for JETAA members that help out. The event will be Wednesday, August 10th in the evening.
It starts with Obon dancing and Taiko drumming, then all members make their way down to the lake to float candles in the water, while a Buddhist monk chants on the bridge. We need about 6 people to help out - usually we help prepare the candles and direct people - all in all it is very little work but it is a very special and beautiful ceremony.
Please contact the Cultural Chairman if you're interested. |
JETAA’s 1st Annual Pitch and Putt golf outing at McMenamins Edgefield was a huge success last year. To build on the fun, we stepped up this year to a Masters tournament where JETAA members and friends will compete for a coveted “green jacket”. The date is set for Saturday, July 30th at 11am. We are working out all the details, so check the JETAA Website for more details and updates.
This is joint event with J-Kaiwa and everyone is welcome. Even if golf is not your game, everyone is meeting for lunch afterwards so join us for the fun at McMenamins.
JETAA's 2nd Annual Masters Golf Tournament
When: Saturday, July 30, meet at 10 am
Where: At McMenamins Edgefield's Pitch & Put
(see the website for details: www.mcmenamins.com)
Cost: Nothing!!! JETAA Portland is covering the cost of golf (lunch afterwards is betsu-bestu)
JETAA is having a golf tournament this Saturday, July 30th starting at 10:00am. The course is a simple par 3 and we are playing only 9 holes. Don't worry if you can't play golf...neither can anyone else. Besides, we will be playing a best ball tournament so only one player in your group needs to be good. :o)
If you don't have clubs, the course can rent them to you for $1 a club. You really only need a pitching wedge and a putter.
To The Winner...
Everyone will be competing for the coveted ''SUGOI Green Jacket'' that has mysteriously made its way to Portland. Read the history of the SUGOI Green Jacket below.
Remember, although we are competing for the coveted SUGOI Green Jacket that is the Master's tradition, none of us will be playing GREAT golf! This is just a fun time and a great family affair (kids are welcome). Besides, JETAA Portland is covering the cost of golf so what do you have to lose?
Join Us for Lunch
After golf, we will all meet afterwards for lunch at the Powerstation Pub. It will be a J-kaiwa lunch and a great chance to catch up on your Japanese. Also, the tournament winners along with the official Green Jacket ceremony will take place.

SUGOI Green Jacket Comes to JETAA Portland:
It is with great honor that JETAA Portland chapter has acquired the prestigious traveling green jacket to be bestowed up the winner on our annual “JETAA Masters Golf Tournament” at McMenemins Edgefield this July 30. The following profiles the extensive travels of this garment from inception to it’s current destination at the humidity-controlled chamber in JETAA Secretary Britt Sexton’s water-heater closet: In 1962 the Sugiyama United Golf Invitational (S.U.G.O.I.) commissioned the production of “the Green Jacket” for the winner of their new annual golf tournament. The adventure begins. The work was performed by the friend of the daughter of the most exclusive tailor shop in Saitama, well-known for their work on the mawashii of Sumo wresters.The jacket was cut from the finest green-and-white checkered polyester available at the time, and hand-stitched to the size of the likely winners. Inspector #5 closely checked the garment for flaws, but accidentally dropped cigarette ash on the right sleeve, burning into the polyester. The sleeve was replaced, and the garment delivered by Kuro Neko to the SUGOI in time for the tournament.
1962: Mr. Takeo Yamauchi wins the inaugural tournament. Mr. Yamauchi, a retired salaryman and longtime club member, was well-known for his excessive drinking, which often led to him forgetting his own name. This led to embarrassing moments introducing himself as Mr. Uchiyama. |

|

|
1965: Mr. Akio Takeda wins the jacket, and proudly wears it everyday to his favorite coffee shop. The coffee stain on the left sleeve is from his reign.1982: The first foreigner wins the Jacket. Walter J. Smokenkleen wins the coveted prize after 13 years as club member. Smokenkleen, a writer of English for all of the big stationary and t-shirt companies, was widely regarded for his work on such phrases as “We play yacht in the wide nature.” (shopping bags), and “Let there be estimated percentages for everyone!” (stationary).WJ was also a controversial figure. The appearance of T-Shirts with "Donald Duck can perhaps be described as a parody of a human being" led to rioting on Japanese college campuses and forced the Prime Minister to cancel a state visit.As Walter accepted the green jacket, he announced his retirement and impending move back to the US. When asked for the reason of the sudden announcement, he responded, "For beautiful human life.” Due to the extremely-high land prices, the Sugiyama golf club announces it is selling out to a larger developer, ending the annual tournament. Walter would get to keep the jacket.
2004: Clarence Smokenkleen, grandson of the master, now living in Troutdale, OR donates the jacket to JETAA for a tax-nondeductible donation of $2.49. |
Who will win the jacket next? The JETAA Masters event is set for Saturday, July 30th at 11am at Edgefield Golf Course

It couldn't have been a more perfect summer day for a BBQ, or a more perfect venue than Westmoreland Park, or a more perfect blend of JET Alumni, departing JETs, and friends and family! We had an amazing turnout of over sixy people and everyone was motivated to mingle, ask questions, and chat. What a great group!
While waiting for our Hawaiian feast to arrive, parents were asked to come together to play a game of JANKEN PON against JET alum Will Porter. If they beat him at JANKEN, they could stay in the game, but if they tied or lost, they were out! Due to Will's skillful mastery of the intricacies of JANKEN, he was able to narrow the playing field down to
only TWO parents after only ONE round! We rewarded both parents with "gold"trimmed Japan-US interlaced flag pins they can proudly wear to support their JETs!
In addition to our Hawaiian-style BBQ, some people brought delectable dishes that added quite the variety to our picnic. We thank everyone who came out- it was great to see familiar faces and to welcome new ones!Pictures coming soon!
The Pre-Departure was a great success. Check out all the details here.
Consul General Nagai performing with his musical friends at the First Unitarian Church, located at 1011 SW 12th Ave, here in Portland. It was a free concert and there was be a reception that following the concert.
Recently, the JETAA officers and members took the show on the road and visited a new karaoke box called “DaDaDi.” In addition to their regular duties, the team agreed to put in a little overtime in order to verify the quality of this new establishment of vocal exercise.
DaDaDi operates on the second floor of a building at 2788 SE 82nd in SE Portland and has about 6-8 rooms of varying sizes. Most rooms are $35 per hour, ideal for groups of about 8 singers. The largest room was for much bigger groups (up to 30) for $65 per hour.The couches were luxurious, the sound systems and screens were of the highest quality, on par with the best “yoke” places that JETs are used to in Japan. The video content includes some original artist footage (Mamas & the Papas, etc) and the usual karaoke footage of out-of-work actors and actresses frolicking on the beach. Natsukashii. This just serves to remind you to always bring your video camera on vacation because no content is too low for such a medium. Apparently, emphasis is placed on subjects with big hair.
The Japanese song selection is superb. All of your usual songs are there. Likewise, if you sing Korean. Clearly, DaDaDi has defined their clientele.The English selection was adequate, but needed a little expansion and a book listed by artist. Unfortunately for us, no “Bohemian Rhapsody” this time.
Where DaDaDi really departs from the ultra-level karaoke joint is regarding their alcohol license. No alcohol is served. A limited selection of soft drinks are available.Still, the place gets 10 thumbs up from your dedicated reviewers, even “Mr. Onchi,” yours truly.
About 20 JETAA members and friends joined in the competition to reign supreme at the 2nd Annual Iron Chef Potluck Party. A plethora of Japanese dishes were prepared to battle in three categories (Main dish, side dish, and dessert) to become this year’s JETAA Iron Chefs.
In an unexpected turn of events, our judges broke tradition and honored top 3 dishes in each category, but managed to find clear winner and new Iron Chefs.
Here were the results:
Iron Chef Main Dish…Beth Schnyder-Koroke
Iron Chef Side Dish…Will Anton-Onions & Grapefruit salad
Iron Chef Dessert…Jennifer Kikuchi-Mochi Custardo
We are working to get all of the recipes posted on the Website for everyone’s enjoyment. If you have a Japanese recipe, email it to: webmaster@jetaaportland.com
A big thanks goes out to Gloria Jung for providing the perfect venue for such a great time!

SUSHI MAKING AND TASTING
Making sushi is actually pretty easy and can be a lot of fun. Visit us this weekend and we'll do our best to make a sushi chef out of you. We'll be rolling sushi using Lundberg Organic Sushi Rice, nori, wasabi, mango, avocado, cucumber, onions, and many other fresh ingredients. With a few tips, some inexpensive tools, and a little practice, you can create this delicious cuisine in your own kitchen.
There are only a couple hard and fast rules to sushi preparation. The first is to only use the very freshest ingredients. The second is never eat the wasabi by itself. Join us to learn more about making sushi or just sample the many vegetarian choices we will be making. |

Due to the uncooperative weather, the 2005 JETAA Portland Hanamikai was held indoors this year. The wonderful Rock Bottom Brewery served as the host spot for JETAA members and friends. The food was excellent and the beautiful flowers prepared by Will Porter (previous social chairman) made us all feel us as if we were out asking in the sun under the cherry blossoms. Thanks to Will for his hard work and to everyone who came out and had fun.

On February 26 th the JETAA Portland executive board and committee chairs invited all interested parties to sit in on a board meeting and start the planning for the impending JETAA Portland 05-06 member year. Online JETAA Portland officer elections are coming up in March, so if you are interested, check out the elections page. JETAA Portland's recent meeting was held at a great Chinese BBQ restaurant on SE 82nd, just off of division. After the business adjourned, everyone headed upstairs for a rousing round of karaoke in English and Japanese at the Da Da Di karaoke box studio.The studio offers competitive rates for Nihon-style karaoke boxes perfect for a date (2 person box- $16/hr) or a full-on karaoke party (35 person capacity room and stage- $65/hr). Japanese, Korean, English and Chinese song selections are abundant, with state-of the art digital karaoke equipment, neon signs and cushy couches and trendy tables to put you in the performing mood.The Saturday night fun came to a close with a heartfelt rendition of “We are the World” as the mike was passed around the room. If you want to experience Da Da Di for yourself, come to the April 4 th JKaiwa, and show off your juu-hachi ban!

The JETAA Portland booth at the 2005 Mochitsuki was a great success. The Mochitsuki is a Japanese culture festival and New Year’s celebration put on by the Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center in conjunction with Japan-related community partners (like JETAA). Held at PCC Sylvania, the event drew everyone from Japanese immersion students and their families to former JETs, consular officials and those wanting to learn more about making mochi. JETAA’s second annual “Fishing Game” was certainly popular among the 3-12 crowd as kids lined up to whip a mock bamboo fishing rod with clothespin hook over our blue painted “pond” façade. When fishers reeled in their line, they had “caught” Hello Kitty pens, Doraimon gum, lychee candy and/or senbei. The number of head injuries from flying clothespins was down from last year, but if we do this again, we should be sure to bring helmets. Perhaps the greatest success of the fishing game was getting rid of the rancid ginger-flavored Chinese candies! Every last one of them got passed out to unsuspecting fishers!As in years past, it was good to see former and prospective JETs stop by our table and get connected to the JETAA network. Although due to the attraction of the photo board and fishing game, most of our crowd wasn’t yet old enough to vote, let alone have a bachelor’s degree, we did some key recruiting among parents for them to keep in mind when the kids do reach JET age.
JETAA volunteers got a chance to attend one of two Mochi Madness performances where the best of the Northwest put on exhibitions in Taiko, Japanese dance, and storytelling. Thanks again to everyone who volunteered.
