日本人形 Japanese doll
これは、土から作られた人形です。子供の表情が素朴に表現されています。美術品ではありませんが、何か不思議に引きつけられます。
This is a doll made from soil. The expression of the child is naively charming. It is not art object, but has a certain magnetism.

季節の変わり目 a change of season
暑さに慣れた体にとって、今朝は随分寒く感じました。今まで伸びて寝ていた老犬も、丸くなって寝ていました。
I felt very cold this morning, because I was used to the heat.
It was the first time in this season that my old dog curled himself up and slept. Until now he stretched himself and slept.

蚊刺安心器 Mosquito Bite Relief Device
2015年8月14日の記事がきっかけで、蚊に刺された時に痒みや炎症を、防ぐために利用する、ZAP-IT!という小さな器具をいただきました。プレゼントしてくれた方は、東南アジアの旅行中に購入し、大変役にたったそうです。でも、彼女の言うには、効果が無いという人もいるそうです。
恐らく、使い捨てライターと同様な圧電素子を利用した器具だと思います。ボタンを押すと電極間に火花が飛びます。使い方は、この部分を刺された場所に押し当て、ボタンを5回くらい押すだけです。少しチクッとします。微弱電流が流れそのジュール熱で毒素を分解するのでしょう。
この記事を書いている時、タイミングもよく蚊に刺されました。早速使ってみると、効果がありました。私には効果があることを確認できました。
One of my friend gave me a small device called "ZAP-IT!", through the article of August 14,2015 on this blog. When we were bitten by a mosquito, it is a device to use for preventing an itch and inflammation.
The person who gave it to me bought it during a trip of Southeast Asia. And she said that it is an effective device. But she said that there are the people who said that it was ineffective, too.
Probably I think that it is a device using the piezoelectric element which is similar to a component part of a disposable lighter. A spark splashes between electrodes when we push the button. We put this electrodes on the place that a mosquito bit and push the button about five times. This will sting a little.
A little electric currents flow, and it is thought that, as a result, an occurring Joule heat breaks down a toxin.
While I am writing this article, I was bitten by a mosquito by chance. So I used this device at once and I confirmed that it has that result. This is a useful product for me.

炎天下のシャルルドゴール Charles de Gaulle under the blazing sun
炎天下に咲く、シャルル・ド・ゴールです。小ぶりで華やかさも今ひとつ。雨が多く降ったためか、色も抜けているようです。
This is Charles de Gaulle which is blooming under the blazing sun.
Now, these flowers are all small and don't have enough gorgeousness.
The color turned pale probably because a lot of rain fell.

当てにならないフライト情報 Unreliable flight information
今日は、友人がスクートTZ202便で成田に来られました。その便には遅延が発生し、予定時刻には到着しませんでした。ところがGoogleのフライト情報では、定刻通り到着済になっていました。
Googleのフライト情報が間違っているのはいつものことですが、いい加減な情報提供は止めて欲しいです。予定を台無しにしてしまう人が居るかもしれません。
My friends flew to Narita airport by a Scoot TZ202 flights today. The flight did not arrive at scheduled time, because of a delay.
However the Google flight information showed that the flight have arrived on schedule.
It is a usual thing that Google makes a mistake on flight information, but I want informants to stop the news without grounds.
There may be a person spoiling his/her plan.

電気牧柵 Electric fence
道路を横切って電気牧柵が設置されていました。おっかなびっくり、跨いで通りました。
写真では見難いですが、2本の白い線が、イノシシよけの牧柵です。
ここは、畑でも牧場でもありません。何をイノシシから守りたいのでしょう。
An electric fence was installed across the road. I stepped over the fence timidly.
It is hard to distinguish electric wires on this photo, but there are two electric white wires to deter wild boar.
Here is not a cultivation area. I wonder what they want to protect from a wild boar.

何が昆虫を呼び寄せるのか What calls insects?
一匹の蝶が、ガソリンタンクにとまっていました。なんでこんな所に、蝶がとまっているのでしょう。ワックスの香料が、蝶をよび寄せたのかも知れません。
以前、林道を自転車で走っていると、執ように蜂がつきまとってきました。休息のため、自転車を離れると、フレームに取り付けた清涼飲料水に、蜂がとまりました。多分、清涼飲料水に含まれる香料が、蜂を呼んだのでしょう。
I wonder why a butterfly settled on a gas tank. A smell of the wax might attract the butterfly.
A bee was following me obsessively when I was running on the forest road by bicycle before.
To take a rest, I stopped my bicycle and moved away from it. Then the bee settled on a bottle of the soft drink which was attached to the bicycle frame. I think that a fragrance which the soft drink included would attract the bee.

東アジアカップ2015 The East Asian Cup2015
東アジアカップは、残念な結果に終わってしまった。
特に男子はまったく振るわず、縦パスと、足の早いFWだよりでは点はとれません。Ｗ杯アジア２次予選では、海外組を呼ばざる得ないでしょうね。
一方、女子も成績は振るわなかったものの、収穫のある大会になったと思います。気迫がつたわってくる川村優理選手（ゆーり）のプレーには感動しました。拍手！
敗戦の悔しさがやっと納まったので、穏やかにブログが書けるようになりました。
The East Asian Cup has ended with a disappointing result.
The result of the men football team was lowest ever.
It was the cause of defeat that to depend on long pass and a swift-footed FW (forward). In the World Cup second qualifier in Asia, It is necessary to invite players playing abroad.
On the other hand, Nadeshiko Japan (women’s football team) was not able to get good result also, but they got experience of which will be helpful in the future. I was impressed by the play of the Yuri Kawamura. Her play was full of spirit. Applause!
Because my vexation of the defeat was settled finally, I have gotten to be able to write this article in a calm manner.

蚊の痒み解放 to relieve mosquito bites
私はアレルギー体質なので蚊に刺されると、いつまでもかゆみと炎症が残ります。
ところが、蚊に刺された直後にシャワーを浴びると、かゆみが直ぐに止まり炎症も残らないことに気がつきました。
調べて分かったことは、蚊の毒はたんぱく質から構成されており、たんぱく質は、40数度℃の温度で分解するということでした。そうだとすると、刺されたところをヘアドライヤーで温めても同じではないかと考え実行してみると、このもくろみは的中しました。
ドライヤーを使えない場所でない限り、もう虫さされの薬は必要ではなくなりました。
お試しください。
The mosquito bite produces a long-continued itchy rash to me, because I am allergic predisposition. However, I noticed that when I took a shower immediately after having been bitten by a mosquito, an itch stopped immediately and inflammation was not developed.
What I understood from it was as follows.
The poison of the mosquito is composed of protein. And protein is weak at a high temperature. When the temperature exceeds 40 several degrees, the poison is collapsed by the heat.
From that point, I thought that it was more easy to detoxify with a hair dryer instead of having a shower. The idea hit the mark.
If it is the place where we can use a dryer, the medicine for insect bite is not necessary anymore.
Please try it.

To ring a bell, we strike it with a log at a temple, but we pull a string and swing it in a church.
It is interesting that there are various ways to do so.

This bottle was used from a wine shop to consumers as a transportation container of the sake in old days. It belongs to the wine shop. Now, it is replaced a glass bottle and cannot be used. Capacity is 1.8 liters.

Because the exterior looks like the feces of birds, it was named "torinofundamashi" in Japanese. The first part, torinofun, means the feces of birds. The last part, damashi, means trick.
They protect themselves from the predator by making mimesis to the feces of the bird.

飛行重量制限 Weight limit of flight
飛行に重量制限があるのは知っていましたが、軽飛行機では、とてもシビアに管理する必要があることを知りました。飛行の都度、パイロットは、燃料や乗客とその荷物などの総重量を考慮して、飛び上がれるか判断しなければなりません。許容範囲が少ないということです。
夏の山岳ドライブへと、非力の軽自動車に大勢で乗り込み、エアコンを効かせていたら、途中で走らなくなった経験があります。地面の上だから気楽なものです。
I knew that there was weight limit of flight. But I did not know there was such a severe limit especially for light airplane. Before each flight, the pilot must determine whether the plane can fly up in consideration of gross weight of fuel and a passenger and the baggage etc.. It means that there is little clearance.
When I went to mountain in summer by powerless kei car which took on many people and let the air conditioner work, I experienced that the car did not go up on the way. We are carefree as far as we are on the ground.
