   How about a recreationist section with examples of use in the SCA
and any other organizations/situations as they are brought up?  I for
one would like to be able to go to the site and find information on
Japanese title in the SCA.  Other SCA specific info would be useful to
some people too (i.e. armor and weapons concerns).

Technically, you can have an unlimitted number of subsidiary sites in
the sense of japan.sca.org ..  Well almost. Names can be up to about
64 characters long and are pretty much limitted to almphanumerics, dots,
and dashes. Calling these things "vanity sites" is being more than a bit
silly. This sort of thing is COMMON .. The easiest way in which this
sort of thing comes about is by connecting a new named computer to an
existing domain space. For example. My computer is called demoivre and
by virtue of being connected to the network at Bradley University is
demoivre.bradley.edu ... You can also assign multiple names to a single
computer. Calling this a "vanity" activity is also silly. If you are an ISP
selling sites to commercial customers, having your own domain (even if hosted
on a shared computer) is an important aspect of branding.

   Some people also call them subdomains, although the term I've heard
most used is vanity.  Yes, there are technically an unlimited number
of subdomains available (Japanese.sca.org, japan.history.sca.org,
etc.), however you have to pay for each of them with a web host.  That
or host your own web site.

Well...  yes!  The japanese household of the canton du Vieux Bourg is
hosting a japanese event in april 15th.  I planned some activities (thanks
to Effingham-dono and his CA) and a small feast in the evening...  Sorry
it's short for now but I'm going crazy with work, seneschal business  and
planning this event...

Please, don't expect this event to be the world new wonder.  I want it
simple, nice and funny.

I'm actually shooting with two types of ya :wooden and bamboo.  I found that
bamboo one are so flexible that they seem to get anywhere else but the place
I want them too.  Maybe the bamboo used for them was too flexible...

   Wow, that's a lot of space!  I've been looking around at web hosts.
Space is a big factor of price.  If we only need about 20 MB, we can
get away with $5-$7 per month.  I can get a 10MB host for $3 a month.
If we need any kind of space like Solveig-sama, we'll be spending $10
per month.  The only other option I've found is a one-time payment
plan.  Spend $200 for 100MB period, no monthly payments.  This could
be an option if we collected enough from people interested in the
site. (Or by some form of fund raiser.)  This account also includes 10
free subdomain accounts.

   $3 - 10MB - http://www.digitalspace.net (2 subdomains)

   $6 - 20MB - http://www.digitalspace.net (2 subdomains)

   $10 - 200MB - http://www.pagecreators.com ($3 setup fee per
subdomain )

   ($200) - 100MB - http://www.hostingplans.com (10 subdomains)

That's possible, but the arrow's are supposed to be flexible, I believe. It's
possible the bamboo was too green, I guess, but... I dunno...

There was a samurai named Tajima during the Genpei war who developed quite a
reputation as "Tajima the Arrow-Cutter" for his ability to chop arrows out of
the air before they hit him.

Therefore, I found it interesting that a Tajima is an archer. <G>

I think that I still have the flyer that I got from him at Pennsic
somewhere, and I should have a business card somewhere.  HOWEVER,
Hiraizumi-dono, I know someone that can make strings for yumi out of
dacron instead of the "traditional" materials, and still be the right
size, just as strong, and last longer.  Might you be interested?  He's
an archery marshall, BTW.
      And while I'm at it, why practice with air for weeks or months
before stringing the bow and actually firing?  Isn't use the best way
to improve or learn a skill?

That would be spiff, I'd appreciate getting in touch with him. The spare
I'd ordered from Yumi (I'd still like the contact, since it's paid for...)
is "Western style" (i.e., loops at both ends).
