Some sad news, this weekend from the New York Times:
Robert M. Takasugi, who as a boy spent most of World War II with his
family in a California internment camp and grew up to become the one of
the first Japanese-Americans to serve as a federal judge, died Tuesday
in Los Angeles. He was 78 and lived in Montebello, Calif.
