"I swear that my administration will fully examine the causes of this incident, and share all information with the rest of the world in order to prevent similar accidents happening again. By doing so, we hope to contribute to a global debate to increase the safety of nuclear power generation."

"I would like, through the struggle of Japan, showed a clear view to the whole world - one that included aggressive promotion of clean energy - which may contribute to solve global problems of energy."

"Following the worst natural disaster that my country has faced since the end of World War II, the reconstruction of Tohoku region will not be easy. However, I believe that this difficult time will give us a valuable window of opportunity to ensure the 'rebirth of Japan'."

"The government has developed a sophisticated development plan for East Japan, based on three principles: first, the creation of a regional community that is highly resistant to natural disasters, secondly, establish a social system that allows people to live in harmony with the global environment; Third, build a society full of compassion who cares about people, especially people who are vulnerable. "

"We, the people of Japan, rose from the dust of World War II to earn a remarkable recovery and the welfare state. I do not have any doubt that we will overcome this crisis, rose more strongly than before, and ensuring Japan a more vibrant and more good for future generations. "

Rossi Disappointed with Ducati Performance

Valentino Rossi disappointed with the result that he won the Portuguese Grand Prix qualifying on Saturday (30/04/2011). Hoping at least able to match what was achieved in the free practice session, "The Doctor" instead slumped to ninth position and should start from the third row in Sunday's race (01/05/2011).

In fact, during the three free practice, Rossi always in the order of five. Even in the last two exercises, seven times MotoGP world champion was always in the fourth. But during qualifying, the front of the motor problems become obstacles so that he failed to realize the expectations and Ducati.

"We are very angry with the performance this afternoon, especially regarding the position, because our target is to fight to occupy the second row, about the fifth or sixth place, and we have the potential yesterday," said Rossi.

"But today I could not race with a better way. I have a problem with the front. When I tried to push over again, I'm too much on the boundary with the front of the motor. So more or less remained the same problem and unfortunately, I could not make it better. So, tomorrow's races will be difficult because the start of the third line, "he said.

Rossi admitted he had made some progress towards the end of the qualifying session. However, it still required some breakthrough if Ducati wants to have the opportunity for competitive.

"In the end we made modifications to set and I can fix the feelings and also records lap times, but not enough," said Rossi. "We need to make another step like this to try to achieve a good result."

Meanwhile, Rossi's teammate, Nicky Hayden, who finished 13th in qualifying, said that the bike is too sensitive with the cooler weather conditions today. In fact, they also have experienced difficulties with performance tires.

Simoncelli-Lorenzo Involved Arguments

Jorge Lorenzo and Marco Simoncelli involved in the dispute. This happens due to criticism leveled Lorenzo earlier this week stating that Simoncelli overly aggressive driving style.

However, what is said Lorenzo was not accepted by Simoncelli. Italian rider was also given "a counter-attack" during a press conference after the Portuguese Grand Prix qualifying on Saturday (04/30/2011), of Lorenzo, who beat her in the race for pole position for Sunday's race (05/01/2011) at the Estoril Circuit.

"I read something he said about my driving style. But for me, he had said something wrong because he said that last year in Valencia I was nudged and she nearly fell. That is not true because I was in front. He tried to passed me and he made a mistake. For me, it is an example of inappropriate, "said Simoncelli.

However, Lorenzo immediately reply with a firm, saying he was aware of what it expresses and the way the race is too aggressive Simoncelli also complained of by a number of other riders.

"I think, yesterday I revealed the true words. For me, it's not a problem. If nothing happens in the future, it does not matter. We'll see what happens in the future," said Lorenzo, pointing Simoncelli.

"I think you have been touched by many racers. How many races that I did not fall or touched?"

"It's your opinion, but I think many people here, in the paddock, and most riders have the same opinion as me. Just ask (Andrea) Dovizioso, for example. Or to (Hiroshi) Aoyama."

"If in the future nothing happens, it's not a problem. But if something happens to you in the future, it will be a problem."

The spat was caused laughter, especially among the media. However, Lorenzo to take it seriously, so he did not want to fight it is considered trivial.

"Everyone laughed, but it's not funny because we played with our lives," said Lorenzo. "We drove with a speed of 300 kilometers per hour with a motor that is very heavy and very powerful. This is not a mini bike. This sport is dangerous and you should think about what you do."

When asked if he would feel comfortable because there is potential for tight battle with Marco Simoncelli on the race later, Lorenzo said he was excited and ready to face such fierce duel-Simoncelli will start from second position.

"It's okay, I'm ready for a fight with another rider," he said.

"I do not like fighting with no net. I was involved in an accident with (Alex) de Angelis in Japan and he fell because of my mistake. But from this time onwards, I've tried to race clean."

"I can make mistakes because I am human. But when I race, I think twice. I do not follow your heart because it is something that relates to your health and also with other health rider-rider."

2. Analytical Engine (1822) so Computer (1940) In an effort to create mathematical calculating machine without error, Charles Babbage created the forerunner of modern computers. Babbage's analytical engine was the first general computing device that is able to solve different types of calculations. Interestingly, the engine was made at the time in electronics has not emerged. Babbage's analytical engine continues to develop until his death in 1871.

3. Contact Lenses (1632), so Contact Lens (1887/1950)
