年齢を重ねるに従い、物に対する感じ方が異なってくる。若い頃は紅葉に惹かれる事は余り無く、大人が紅葉した山を観て、「ワー綺麗・・・」等と声を上げるのを、なにが？的な感覚でみていたが、最近は何故か紅葉に惹かれる。

ゴルフをしていてもコース戦略よりも紅葉に見惚れ、ナイスチョットに成ることがしばしば。そんなこんなで今週２３・２４日と、女房と2人で紅葉狩りと洒落込んだ。

目的は大台ケ原の紅葉。ただ大台ケ原に直行では色気が無い。そこで、阪神高速から南阪和道に入り、橿原インターを出て桜井市へ。談山神社?　明日香　?　壷坂寺　?　川上村　?　上北山温泉（泊）　?　上北山観光　?　大台ケ原　?　不動屈鍾乳洞　?　　と国道169号線の紅葉と山間の景観を満喫してきた。

 

談山神社の紅葉、赤、青、黄色、見事な紅葉であるが、盛りは少し過ぎていた。今朝NHKで、談山神社の紅葉を、今が盛りと放映していたが、可也いい加減。盛りは半月前であったと思う。

 

壷坂寺の大釈迦如来石像。それはそれは見事な石仏で、お寺に一歩入るとこの石像に圧倒される。（明日香を抜けて川上村に向かっている途中、壷坂寺の看板が目に入り、咄嗟にハンドルを左に切ったのであったが、この判断が正解。心洗われる、とても良いお寺で、眼を見張った・・・ここは目によく効くお寺とか。そう、お里沢市物語のお寺なのだ・・。）

上北山温泉の小高い丘に在る薬師堂の横にあるサクラ。間違いなく桜であるが何故か花が満開。隣の家の玄関にお爺さんが立って、この木を眺めているので、「おじいさん、この木、サクラですよネ・・、毎年この時期に咲くのですか？と大声で尋ねたが、お爺さんはただニコニコと微笑むばかりであった。

今回の目的は大台ケ原の紅葉であったが全くの調査不足。早くも大台ケ原は冬支度、広葉樹は全て葉を落とし、冬備え万端であった。でも、それはそれで良かった。

As we age, we feel differently about things. When I was young, I wasn’t attracted to the maple leaves, so I didn’t know what it was like to see an adult looking at a mountain with maple leaves and shouting, “Wow, it’s beautiful… But recently, I’ve been attracted to the autumn leaves for some reason.

Even when I play golf, I often fall in love with the autumn leaves rather than the course strategy and become a nice chot. This week, on the 23rd and 24th, my wife and I went to see the autumn leaves with my wife.

The purpose was to see the autumn leaves of Odaigahara. However, if you go directly to Odaigahara, you don’t look sexy. From there, I took the Hanshin Expressway to the Minami Hanwa Expressway, left the Kashihara Interchange and went to Sakurai City. Danzan shrine?　Asuka ?　Tsubosaka-ji Temple ?　Kawakami village ?　Kamikitayama hot springs (overnight) ?　Kamikitayama sightseeing ?　Odaigahara ?　Fudokudoku limestone cave ?　　and Route 169, the autumn leaves and the scenery between mountains were fully enjoyed.

The foliage of the Danzan shrine is magnificent, red, blue and yellow, but it was a little past its prime. This morning on NHK, they were showing the autumn leaves of Danzan Shrine at the height of the season, but it was not good enough. I think the peak was half a month ago.

A stone statue of the Great Sakyamuni Buddha of Tsubosaka Temple. It is a splendid stone Buddha, and when you enter the temple, you are overwhelmed by this stone statue. (On the way to Kawakami village through Asuka, I saw the sign of Tsubosakaji Temple and turned the steering wheel to the left on the spur of the moment, but this was the right decision. It’s a very good temple that cleanses the mind, and it’s very eye-opening… I hear it’s a good temple for the eyes. (Yes, it’s the temple of the story of Orisawa City…)

The cherry blossoms are located next to the Yakushido, which is located on a small hill in Kamikitayama Onsen. It was definitely a cherry blossom, but for some reason the flowers were in full bloom. An old man was standing in the doorway of the next house, looking at this tree, and asked, “Grandpa, this tree is a cherry tree…does it bloom every year at this time? I asked out loud, but the old man just smiled and smiled.

Odaigahara (1,690 meters above sea level), the highest peak in the Kansai region

The purpose of this time was to see the autumn leaves of Odaigahara, but there was a complete lack of investigation. Odaigahara was already preparing for winter, and all the broad-leaved trees had lost their leaves and were ready for winter. But it was all good in its own way.

10月２４．２５日は竹島領有権確立隠岐の島集会、10月31日は知夫会、 11月3日は島根県人会、11月6.・7日は黒木中学の同窓会、そして今週11月10日は島根県人会ゴルフコンペと、ここ２・３週間は郷土行事一色で中々休みが取れない。それでも寸暇を見つけては映画鑑賞、今年もはや2５本は観ている。ところが、「桜田門外の変」は未だ。早くしないと上映が終わってしまう・・と少々焦り気味であるが、上手く時間が取れない。時間よ止まれ・・・・。

それにしても歳と共に田舎が恋しくなる、男の帰省本能なのかな・・・。その点、女は違うようだ、大半は嫁いだ所に根着くと云うか、男に比べ帰省本能は薄いようで、「定年後は郷里で・・・」等と云う話しは先ず聞かない。

小生の夢は、１年のうち数ヶ月、郷里隠岐の島に帰り、半自給自足の生活をすること。特に「立て網」が遣りたくて仕方がない。何故なのか・・・自分也に考えてみるに、どうもこれもノスタルジーのひとつらしい。

多分小学校低学年の頃であったと思うが、父と一緒に大山の海に「立て網」を仕掛けた事がある。数日だったのか数ヶ月だったかうろ覚えであるが、兎に角、父と一緒に伝馬船を漕ぎ、網を仕掛け、翌朝掛かった魚を獲り、井戸端で調理をした記憶が鮮明に残っている。多分それが無性に楽しかったのだろうと思う・・・。今になって何故か、それがとてもしてみたいのである。

平城遷都1300年祭の大極殿。同窓会の翌日皆で奈良の遷都1300年祭を見学。最終日と云うこともあって大変な人出であった。

On October 24.25, there was a meeting on Oki Island to establish Takeshima’s territorial rights, on October 31, there was a Chieu-kai, on November 3, there was a Shimane Kenjinkai, on November 6 and 7, there was an alumni association of Kuroki Junior High School, and this week, on November 10, there was a Shimane Kenjinkai golf competition. Even so, I still find time to watch movies, and I’ve watched at least 25 of them this year. However, the “Sakurada Gogai no Hen” has not yet been reported. I’m feeling a little impatient because the screening will be over if I don’t hurry, but I can’t take the time well. It’s time to stop…

Anyway, I guess it’s a man’s instinct to go back to the countryside as he gets older…. On the other hand, it seems that women are different from men, as most of them have less instinct to go back to their hometowns than men, and they don’t hear people say, “After retirement, I’ll go back to my hometown.

My dream is to return to my hometown, Oki Island, for a few months in a year and live a semi-sufficient life. I especially want to do “barbed nets”. I wondered why… I guess it’s one of those nostalgia things.

I think it was when I was in the lower grades of elementary school, but I once set a “purse seine” in the sea of Oyama with my father. I remember vividly that I rowed a horse-drawn boat with my father, set a net, caught a fish the next morning, and cooked it at the side of a well. Maybe it was just plain fun….I don’t know. For some reason, after all this time, it’s something I really want to do.

神奈川県で、60人の男女が197回の養子縁組を繰り返し、新たな借金を重ねるなどの詐欺行為を働いていた事が大きく報道されている。また、つい先日は、養子縁組を繰り返し、保険金殺人に繋がった事件などが報道されていた。

そんな事から、詐欺事件に興味を持ってウエブ上での社会欄に目を通すと、有るはあるは、ワンさと詐欺事件が並んでいる。結婚詐欺、減刑詐欺、住宅ローン詐欺など報じられているだけでも相当有る。

ただ、ニュースで報じられる詐欺事件などほんの氷山の一角で、実際には何千何万と云う事件にならない詐欺事件が日常茶飯事におき、善良な市民の多くが泣きをみている。

詐欺とは、他人をだまし金品を奪ったり損害を与えたりすることであるが、詐欺を働こうとする人間の大半は、自らを欺き、自分を自分でなくし、第三者の自分になって他人をだますのが大半である。

従って、氏名、年齢、住所、経歴、家族構成を事前に調べれば、大半の詐欺は未然に防ぐ事ができる。その為には住民票や戸籍で確認する必要がある。

個人を特定する為（身分関係の証明）に戸籍があり、誰が何処に住んでいるのかを証す為に住民票がある。従って、戸籍も住民票も公開にしておかないと、社会の秩序が保てなくなるため、戸籍ができた明治5年から今日まで一貫して法的には公開としている。

ところが、実際は戸籍も住民票も、本人及び家族以外にはほぼ１００％入手不可能である。何故なのか、理由は簡単。戸籍、住民票を管理している行政の窓口が第三者の交付請求に応じないが為である（法的根拠が有る様でなく、運用基準なるもので、応じないようにしている）。その背景には強力な人権団体の力が働いている様に思う・・・。

この事を知っているワルは、氏名、年齢、住所、履歴など幾ら偽っても、今の日本の社会ではバレないよう保護されている為、大手を振って他人をだまし、金品を奪ったり損害を与えたりするのである。

一般の人は余りこんな事は考えないのでしょうが、私ども調査業者は、善良な市民や企業が騙されて損をしないよう、事前に事実関係を調べリスクを回避する事を仕事としており、日々この問題に直面しているのである。ところが、その人が、何処の誰なのかを証明する戸籍も住民票も取れないために、大変な苦労を強いられることになっている。

　実際、今日ウエブ上で報じられている詐欺事件の大半は、行政が法律通り、第三者請求に応じていれば、未然に防ぐことが出来たと思う。いや、それより何より、戸籍、住民票が従前のようにオープンであったなら、事件そのものが起きていないかもしれない。大体、養子縁組を何回も繰り返し、姓を変えて借金を重ねたり、ローンを逃れたり、保険金を騙す事など出来やしない。だって、戸籍をみれば直ぐに判るんだもの（改原や除籍を見る必要はあるが、現戸籍をみただけでも、多分調査員なら判ると思うが・・・。）

 

In Kanagawa Prefecture, it has been widely reported that 60 men and women were involved in a fraud that involved 197 repeated adoptions and piling up new debts. In addition, the other day, there was a case of repeated adoptions that led to the murder of an insured child.

So, if you look at the social section of the web with an interest in fraud, you’ll see that there are some, some, and some, and there are fraud cases. There’s quite a bit of marriage fraud, commutation fraud, and mortgage fraud that’s been reported.

However, this is only the tip of the iceberg, as there are tens of thousands of scams that don’t make it to the real world, and many good citizens are left in tears.

Fraud is the act of defrauding others into taking money and goods or causing damage, but the majority of people who try to commit fraud are mostly defrauding others by deceiving themselves, making themselves less than they are, and becoming a third party self.

Therefore, most scams can be prevented if you check your name, age, address, background, and family structure beforehand. In order to do so, it is necessary to confirm it with a certificate of residence or family register.

There is a family register to identify the individual (proof of identity) and a certificate of residence to prove who lives where. Therefore, since social order cannot be maintained unless both family registers and certificates of residence are made public, they have been made legally open to the public since the establishment of the family register in the 5th year of Meiji until today.

In fact, however, neither the family register nor the certificate of residence are available to anyone other than the person himself or her family. The reason why is simple. The reason for this is that the administrative office in charge of family registers and certificates of residence does not respond to requests from third parties (it does not seem to have a legal basis for doing so, but rather, its operational standards prevent it from doing so). I think the power of a powerful human rights organization is working in the background….

Knowing this, the bad guys, no matter how much they falsify their name, age, address, history, etc., are protected from being found out in today’s Japanese society, so they play the big game and deceive others to steal money and goods or cause damage.

Most people don’t think this way, but our job as investigators is to investigate the facts and avoid risks in advance so that good citizens and companies don’t lose money by being defrauded. However, because they cannot obtain a family register or a certificate of residence to prove the identity of the person, they are forced to go through a great deal of hardship.

In fact, most of the fraud cases being reported on the web today could have been prevented if the administration had responded to third-party claims as required by law. If the family register and residency records had been open as before, the incident itself might not have happened. By and large, you can’t adopt a child over and over again, change their last name, pile up debt, evade loans, or cheat on insurance money. Because it’s easy to find out if you look at the family register (it’s necessary to look at Kaihara and expulsion, but I think an investigator would probably be able to find out just by looking at the current family register…).
