Today was senshuraku (千秋楽), the last day of the grand sumo tournament of this year. Yokozuna Hakuho (横綱白鵬) became a champion. This is the 21st time for him to be a champion. He was about to make a complete victory but unfortunately he lost the match today. His 26th birthday was March 11, 2011 when the Great East Japan Earthquake happened.
There was another big news in Osaka (大阪). Osaka is the second largest city in Japan. There were 2 elections. One for Osaka City Mayor, the other for Osaka Prefecture Governor. It's been 40 years since the double elections happened in Osaka before. The Ex-Osaka Governor Mr. Toru Hashimoto (橋本徹) became the Osaka City Mayor.
