"This Wall of Shame is being assembled by various people, many of whom are on the ground in Japan as residents, not temporarily assigned journalists, who are sick of the sensationalist, overly speculative, and just plain bad reporting that has gone on since the Tohoku quake in Japan last Friday (March 11).

Relief efforts
American Red Cross
Contributions to the American Red Cross International Response Fund may be made through the American Red Cross of the Heartland website at
www.archeartland.org/donate-now
or
http://www.redcross.org/.
.................................................................................
PLEASE SHOW COMPASSION
The terrible destruction in Japan, the continuing lack of electricity and food and shelter for millions of Japanese, and looming concerns over Japan’s damaged nuclear reactors, are causing great hardship and suffering.
All funds will be handled by Mark Schumacher (author of this site), who will ensure their timely dispersal to the Japanese Red Cross 日本赤十字 or any other humanitarian organization here on-the-ground in Japan.
IMPORTANT: (March 20, 2011)
The Japanese government now requires
all donating agencies to be authorized. Thus, sadly, I was forced by both the Japanese government and by Paypal to remove my earlier donation-collecting page. So please direct all your many readers to the above URL. Any prior links that you might have used are defunct.
Please help by making a donation, no matter how small.

Mark is a longtime Daruma friend of mine, he lives in Kamakura.
He provided the "Earthquake Talisman".

Matsushima Relief Fund
I was in Matsushima during the earthquake/tsunami. Although the buildings remain standing (most) much damage at the 1st floor level due to tsunami. Buddhist Temple suffered structural damage but remains standing - used as a shelter the night of the earthquake. Matsushima is currently focusing on rebuilding efforts in order to give hope to the communities around them that were devastated.
