Worst Car

Hi.

I found funny picture. This is a "Horsey Horseless car."

When I saw this picture, I laugh out loud. Hahaha.

Fake horse's face is made from wood, and it seems that it carries an engine. It is a picture of 1899's, and nobody don't know actually it made or not.

In the list of worst cars, number one is 1909 Ford Model T. This model helped us to change people's image of cars. In America, car were really luxury item. So Ford tried to down costs and success selling them for low price. But, after a year, it had many problem with many point.

I studied this model in my economy class in this semester. Teacher said that this was a most epoch-making car because ordinary people could buy. But after few years, Ford lost another car company. Teacher's story is true.

I like watching new model cars.

I want to buy big wagon for next my car. I hope my favorite car will not choose worst car.

iPad

Hi.

In the last blog, I wrote about iPhone. Then, the next is "iPad." iPad is bigger than iPhone and iPod touch, smaller than the computers. There are many both good and bad opinions about iPad before it is sold. There are many articles which are introducing iPad. According to these articles, we can do everything on iPad. We can read books, listen to music, use the Internet, and so on.

I heard the name of iPad, but I didn't know the details. But it is as same as almost my ideas of it. Honestly, I don't feel I want to buy it. This is "lackadaisical" thing for me. If I chose iPod or iPad, I will choose iPod now. Because it is very unfinished, I think. Size, functions, it is unfinished for me.

If you like iPad, I'm sorry!

iPhone

Hi.

Last year my colleagues bought iPhone. They are really satisfied with its usefulness. I have my cell phone and I thought I changing to iPhone, but I didn't yet. I want iPhone but I always think that is it good tool for calling?

I read an article about iPhone. It is especially about applications. In iPhone, we can add about 800 kinds of applications. In these applications, "Pandora" is the most popular application. This application is free personalized radio. You only start with the name of your favorite artists, then this application, Pandora create your own radio station. Next popular application is "Midomi SoundHound." This is for searching what you hear or sing. David Pogue, who is a reporter of New York Times praised this application.

I want to buy iPhone.

I was surprised at Pandora. This is amazing. I like music very much, so I want to use this application. I will listen to this station for all day.

But I think this is not only cell phone but also PC. If I have iPhone, I will play many applications for all day by my iPhone. Mummm, but I want...

Heroes of the Environment

Hi.

Did you think about the environment seriously? Actually, I didn't. I try to classify the garbage, but I didn't take care about green house effect, pollution of air an water, and so on.

I found an article about heroes of the environment in 2009. In this article, 30 heroes and heroines are introduced. They are all think about, act and studying for saving the environment.

And I found the Japanese female name, Yumi Someya. Her father is a top of his company which is recycle company. When she realized changing her life conviniently, she started to think about its sacrifices, nature. She tried to ask her father to think about the environment, and she and her father started to make soap made from cooking oil.

When my life change conveniently, I only thought like that, "This is good, it is convenient!"

I finished reading this article, my thought changed a little. I cannot take big action like Ms. Someya, but I want to start little things to save our earth. I quit leaving room turn on the lights and air conditioner. When I take shower, I quit leave the shower running. When I go out, I pull out plugs.

I will be a heroine of the environment, too. This is one of my aim in this year.

MJ

Hi.

I watched a movie "This Is It" in the theater last year. I like Michael Jackson, but I was not a enthusiastic fan. I wanted to listen his music and watch his last dance, So I went to the theater. After I watched this movie, I became his fan. I realized that he was a really great pop star, he was a king of pop.

There are many articles about him. I read many articles at glance. There is an article that author introduced top 10 MJ songs. Maybe this ranking is only author's personally ranking. The number one is "Beat It."The Author said that he was a pioneer that melding rock and R&B, and this song is rock, tense and spooky. It is the best song oh Michael Jackson, he said.

I like "Beat It" very much, but I like "Thriller" the best. I like its music video. When I was in a junior high school, I watched this video in music class. It was shocking for me (of course good meaning). I really enjoyed this videos. That was the first time when I watched his video completely.

He was a greatest artist. Great number of people in all over the world were shocked and sad when he died. I wanted to listen his new songs more.

I became his fan after he died.

The perfect diet!

Hi.

I found a headline "The Perfect 10 Diet." This is a title of best seller's book and author introduce it in this article. Author said "People tend to go a little crazy when they are on a diet." This is because the diets themselves are often crazy. Only drinking fruits juice, only eating cabbages...In this book, there are 10 healthy and balanced diets.

I was not on real diet because I like to eat very much. So I couldn't believe how to diet without eating. I have never try them. As author said sometimes there are crazy diets. For example, we only drink fruit juice without eating. Maybe I can't stand it. Recently I feel little afraid of my shape because I didn't any sports at all. I want to be on diet, but I don't want to cutting foods. So I want to read this book.

I want to make my body shape beauty and healthy, so I want to read it.

But, is there the best way to be on diet truly? I was little wondering.

Salt

HI.

I really hungry now. So I searched an article about food. I found about relation between health and salt. When we are on diet, maybe many of us think about only sugar, fat and so on. But in this article, author said about amount of salt. At the University of California, San Francisco, researchers found that daily salt intake can lead to health benefits. They found that reducing sodium by 3 grams per a day would be good for hearts. This is as same as cutting cigaret. And sodium related to blood pressure.

My father has hight blood pressure, so he try to cut salty or high cholesterol foods.

It is difficult to change our body to healthy at once. But I felt food is the most important things to our healthy life. Maybe it is a short way to become healthy body.

I want to live a healthy life.

I write this blog while I am eating chocolate cookies.

I should stop to eat sweets. But I love chocolate and cake and...

It is difficult for me to quit sweets completely! So I try to reduce the amount of them.

Of course I take care about salt!
