Osaka Castle is a Japanese castle in Chuo-ku, Osaka, Japan. The castle is one of Japan’s most famous, and played a major role in the unifica-tion of Japan during the sixteenth century of the Azuchi-Momoyama period. The main tower of Osaka Castle is situated on a plot of land roughly one square kilometer. It is built on two raised platforms of landfill supported by sheer walls of cut rock, using a technique called Burdock piling, each overlooking a moat. The central castle building is five stories on the outside and eight stories on the inside, and built atop a tall stone foundation to protect its occupants from attackers. In 1583 Toyotomi Hideyoshi commenced construction on the site of the Ikko-ikki temple of Ishiyama Hongan-ji. The basic plan was mod-eled after Azuchi Castle, the headquarters of Oda Nobunaga. Toy-otomi wanted to build a castle that mirrored Oda’s, but surpassed it in every way: the plan featured a five-story main tower, with three extra stories underground, and gold leaf on the sides of the tower to impress visitors. In 1585 the Inner donjon was completed. Toyotomi continued to extend and expand the castle, making it more and more formidable to attackers. In 1597 construction was completed and Hideyoshi died. Osaka Castle passed to his son, Toyotomi Hideyori.In 1600 Tokugawa Ieyasu defeated his opponents at the Battle of Sekigahara, and started his own bakufu in Edo. In 1614 Tokuga-wa attacked Hideyori in the winter, starting the Siege of Osaka.[4] Although the Toyotomi forces were outnumbered approximate-ly 2 to 1, they managed to fight off Tokugawa’s 200,000-man army and protect the castle’s outer walls. Tokugawa had the castle’s out-er moat filled, negating one of the castle’s main outer defenses.During the summer of 1615, Hideyori began to dig the outer moat once more. Tokugawa, in outrage, sent his armies to Osaka Castle again, and routed the Toyotomi men inside the outer walls on June
4. Osaka Castle fell to Tokugawa, and the Toyotomi clan perished.In 1620, the new heir to the shogunate, Tokugawa Hidetada, be-gan to reconstruct and re-arm Osaka Castle. He built a new elevated main tower, five stories on the outside and eight stories on the in-side, and assigned the task of constructing new walls to individual samurai clans. The walls built in the 1620s still stand today, and are made out of interlocked granite boulders without mortar. Many of the stones were brought from rock quarries near the Seto Inland Sea, and bear inscribed crests of the various families who contributed them.In 1660, lightning ignited the gunpowder warehouse and the re-sulting explosion set the castle on fire. In 1665, lightning struck and burnt down the main tower. In 1843, after decades of neglect, the castle got much-needed repairs when the bakufu collected mon-ey from the people of the region to rebuild several of the turrets.In 1868, Osaka Castle fell and was surrendered to anti-ba-kufu imperial loyalists. Much of the castle was burned in the civil conflicts surrounding the Meiji Restoration.Under the Meiji government, Osaka Castle became part of the Osaka Army Arsenal (Osaka Hohei Kosho) manufacturing guns, ammunition and explosives for Japan’s rapidly-expanding Western-style military.[5]In 1928, the main tower was restored after the may-or of Osaka concluded a highly successful fund-raising drive.During World War II, the arsenal became one of the largest military ar-mories, employing 60,000 workers.[5] Bombing raids targeting the ar-senal damaged the reconstructed main castle tower and, on August 14, 1945, destroyed 90% of the arsenal and killed 382 people working there.In 1995, Osaka’s government approved yet another resto-ration project, with the intent of restoring the main tow-er to its Edo-era splendor. In 1997, restoration was completed.

WONDERMILKUPTOWN DAMANSARA
Wondermilk has been operated in Damansara Uptown for years, yet many of us did not know about it , Wondermilk is located hiddenly placed around the workshops, therefore less of us would frequently passby there. The branch here is nicer & more
relaxing for me as it has warm environment with all the spacious & comfy seats,Wondermilk is famous for its cupcakes & milk. Nevertheless, it sells meals like sandwiches, pasta, and burgers as well. Due to my every visit to here was just to satisfy my sudden crave for cupcake. Besides that, you could buy some biscuits & candies available in Wondermilk. There’s the whole-sized cake displayed And they could be purchased as well. Such colourful & loving cakes. For chocolate lovers, Wondermilk has pretty
nice chocolate cupcakes which could fulfill your high requirement for a cupcake with full chocolate fillings. Others than that, you could get some lighter flavours like red velvet, John lemon & cik rose here, which are delicious but less greasy.
Besides than having nice cupcakes here,There is a wider range of selections for their milk, from the flavours of vanilla, toffee, macadamia, banana, caramel, Irish cream, and butterscotch.

PODGY & THE BANKERSRI HARTAMAS
It seems that café owners in Malaysia hope to bring their experience abroad in coffee-loving countries like Australia home with good coffee and picture-perfect egg benedicts. We recently made our way to Podgy and the Banker, a café with a huge and welcoming space tucked away at the end of Jalan Sri Hartamas 8, where My Elephant already has a presence. It is a new venture by the same folks behind Butter + Beans at
Seventeen, Wood and Steel Café and Feeka @ Jalan Mesui. I like the clean and airy space here, with large windows that let in plenty of sunlight. It has a good feel to it. The decor is minimalist-industrial with wood furniture and lots of potted plants that give the cafe a welcoming air. The menu features mainly egg dishes and sandwiches, complemented by desserts from Lids and Finch, Accidental Bakers and Fat Baby Ice Cream. Our order of flat white and mocha (RM10 each) hit the spot, with its well-rounded, full and rich taste. Podgy & The Banker is definitely worth a stop for breakfast and brunch. They implement a self-service concept here, so all prices are actually nett prices, making it pretty reasonable for
average salary earners like us.

THE DESIDERSKUALA LUMPUR
Deciders is a local brand that designs a range of apparel such as tees, jumpers, hoodies and caps. The brand’s minimalist approach is reflected in their designs; black and white colorways with the text “Deciders Kuala Lumpur”. For good quality and designs, they come at good prices too.
Since Malaysians are always supportive of their homegrown brands, it’s no surprise that Deciders is a hit among the local street community.
As the owner of a retailer that purchases Streetwear from every region of the planet in an effort to represent the World-Wide Reach to which this industry has extended it’s arms, I look not only for labels from all different locations but for labels that embody to me the core attitudes
and ideals that define Streetwear for what it is. Among the most important of these core Streetwear attitudes as I see it are DIY-Independence, community and passion.
As I was recently scouring the relatively vast online community of Streetwear-Earth, I stumbled across a label that represented the aforemen-tioned attitudes to me in a big way. This label is called The Deciders out of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This label jumped off my computer screen at me as a quintessential Streetwear brand based on two characteristics, the first being the actual name of the label it’s self and the second being
the first graphic theme in their repertoire that I just so happened to zero in on.
The Deciders is an outstanding name for a Streetwear label in my opinion because it so strongly expresses the positive energy, motivation and conviction that I associate with Streetwear and that goes into taking life matters into an individual’s own hands or group of individuals’ hands
in order to make something great happen. The Deciders decided to make a Streetwear label, they decided to make it dope and as simple as those things sound, they also decided to grind and hustle until what was once an idea amongst young friends in Kuala Lumpur became a reality to be
enjoyed by myself in New York on the other side of the world.
Their graphic theme that I mentioned as so strongly embodying what I see as core-streetwear attitudes is that of a big bulky and slightly dinged up van that is spray painted with THE DECIDERS, KL SIN CITY. Marked imperfectly but boldly by human hand with the name of their team and locality, The Deciders Van is a vehicle for growth, built roomily for community and fueled by passion. This is a Streetwear-Mobile if ever I saw
one.
In one particular graphic with in this theme, the van is shown parked right in front of a Louis Vuitton storefront. The juxtaposition of these two brand names very expressively communicates the level contrast that exists at their core of their identities. Louis Vuitton is a name “to aspire to”
and to me and to the same degree The Deciders is a name that is “inspired to be”.
