January 13th, 2016 Miyako International Community Radio via Miyako Harbor Radio 82.6 FM [LIVE]


  
Producer: Hisao Hashimoto
Assistant Producer: Yuri Kimura 
Navigator: Hisako Yamaguchi 
Guests: Sakuya Sugawara 
Member: Togo Sasaki
  
  
Welcome to MICR, Sakuya-san ;)  
She is the Miyako High School student who went to Germany for the exchange program. 
The MICR show this time is about her visit to Germany. 
  
Sakuya-san said that she and her host family there communicated in English instead of German while she was there. 
That was not so much of surprising because I remember almost all exchange students from Germany whom I met in US did very well on the English exams; I heard that's because English and German are very similar languages. 
   
In the show, they, Togo-san, Yamaguchi-san, and Sakuya-san were all struggling to find the English word for this: 
   
  

I was like "LADY BUG!! LADY BUG!! That's 'ladybug' you all are talking about!!" in front of the radio.  (I did not go join the show this time for some reasons.)   
They just gave up finding it.
  
In the other show in the past, Togo san was talking about the curry sausage, one of his favorite food in Germany.  I thought he would bring that up as the part of his talk, BUT HE DIDN'T.  

When they were about running out of topics, I was like "hey, Togo-san!!  Talk about the curry sausage, your favorite food in Germany!!" like they could hear me again. 
  
So, I emailed to the show quickly to provide them the topic by asking if Sakuya-san had a chance to eat the curry sausage.
But it did not reach to them by the ending of the show. That was too bad. 
   
Anyway, thank you very much for your great work as always, and I hope I can see all of your faces sometime soon.  

Have a good rest of the week and I will see you!!

Don't Drive and INGRESS

INGRESS is an interesting smartphone game and I have been playing months now. What is INGRESS?  Here's a wiki. Ingress (game) via Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingress_(game) Players have to move around their towns for this game, so some players walk, another players use their bikes, and others drive. But you have to be very careful when you play this game and drive your car at the same time. When you get caught by watching smartphone while your are driving, you will get 1 penalty point on your driver's license and also the ticket cost you 6,000 yen. How do I know about it?

Blogs and AdSense (2)

Blogs and AdSense http://itoshunsuke.blogspot.jp/2015/07/blogs-and-adsense.html     When I see my Adsense page today, I see some numbers!! *Yay* Last time I open this page after years about 10 days ago, I found that I had made only 78 yen, and other numbers on the list were zero yen. But now, I see "+224 yen!!" This is GOOD. I will donate whatever I make from my blogs to the city of Miyako. Then, hopefully the city of Miyako will let people know by saying "The blogger, Ito Shunsuke, from Miyako has donated 10,000 yen!!" on city paper. So, I will get more traffic, and it will make even more money. Then, I probably can donate 100,000 yen next year, and 1,000,000 yen for the following year, so on. When it reach to 10,000,000 yen, I will say       *LOL*

[PolitiC@Nippon] Ryukougo Taisho 2016: Japan’s Most Vogue Words of the Year

Ryukougo Taisho is one of the unique events of Japan. In the end of the year, they choose the buzzing words that everyone is using them in common during the year from TV shows, dramas, news, so on. (Sometime, it's not really used in common, but they pick those words anyway.) Last year, they chose some words from from politic, such as Abe Seiji wo Yurasanai (or "We won't tolerate Abe's politics") SEALDs, the "youth (well, there are some young folks but mostly old folks in their 60s and 70s) group" going against to Abe's politics) and so on.
