NHK TV Drama キャットストリート
I happened to watch the NHKTV drama キャットストリート and I could understand well the process in which a talented girl had stopped going to school. She was a prominent child actor. She was brought up by her mother who always aroused a spirit of competition. She was obliged to compete with her classmates or other child actors.
As a matter of course, she couldn't’t have any close friend. One day, she was hurt by a word of her rival child actor: “You look weird because you don't have any close friends.” Finally, she lost her voice on a stage and stayed home for seven years. By accident, she knew a free school and friends in it. It’s very interesting to see how she will grow up from now on.
Thank you for coming. I’d appreciate it if you could vote

To Counter the Avian Influenza H5N1virus
There are some people having a cold these days. We don't have to be afraid of a common cold, but we will have to counter the avian influenza H5N1virus, sooner or later. It is said to be only a matter of time before a new influenza, which it is predicted could kill more than 150million people, becomes a worldwide pandemic.
I was introduced an article from Japan Times by my teacher of the English conversation class. The article was about a new product of an influenza mask, Morse Guard. Once an outbreak of a new influenza occurs, a high quality masks will be indispensable when going out. I am going to buy a set of five Morse Guard masks(1,000yen).

He Changed His Mind.
I went to the cinema with my younger grandson during Obon holidays. My older grandson had already seen the movie with his girlfriend in summer vacation. Therefore, he stayed at home and did his homework. I felt a little bit lonely, because he didn’t want to go with us.
Anyway, my younger grandson and I reached the movie theater. We intended to see 崖の上のポニョ. Many people and children had lined up in front of the ticket counter. There was △ mark on ポニョ at 9:20 in the list of the movies. We were afraid if we got the tickets, but perhaps we could make it.
However, my grandson suddenly changed his mind in front of the ticket counter, where beautiful young girls were working. He wanted to see Hana yori Dango(花より男子), which his big brother had already seen. I asked him why he changed his mind. He answered that ポニョ was kind of childish. I liked Miyazaki Hayao’s animatin very much and wanted to see it, but followed him. He has reached adolescence. I felt it was the last time to go see movies with him.

A Midyear Present

My son's family gave me four bottles of vinegar as a midyear gift the other day. At first glance, I expected sweet juice, but it was vinegar. Alas, vinegar! I felt a little bit disappointed. However, gradually, happiness welled up from deep in my heart. Thank you, my son and daughter-in-law. They must have thought that vinegar was good for my health while choosing a present. Yes, of course, vinegar is much better than juice for keeping my health. I can drink these bottles of vinegar as juice if I weaken it to 4~6 times with water.
Some people drink vinegar every day as health food. Vinegar weakens oily soup. People eat Hikone Champon with vinegar in Hikone 彦根, Shiga Prefecture. Miraculously, soup becomes less oily. When you visit Hikone, please try it. Ii Naosuke was the lord of Hikone Castle.
A Funny Cup


My grandson gave this strange cup as a souvenir of Okinawa to my husband. He took part in a graduation trip to Okinawa the other day. He got around looking for souvenirs to buy. He wondered what to buy for my husband. He knows very well that my husband likes alcoholic drinks very much and my grandson has seen his grandpa
By chance, my grandson found this cup in which a Shisaシーサー( a talisman to protect one from evil in Okinawa) was glaring fiercely. If you pour water or other drinks over some extent, say 80 %, all of it will run down from the hole of the bottom. That’s quite funny. My grandson doesn’t understand this system. My husband says that it might use siphon effect, but he isn’t sure. I hope this cup will work well on my husband.
