climate
-
Early November was unusually cold (about 10 degrees colder than normal).
The temperature remained below freezing all day.
There were also days of blizzards.
So the snow melted and I was relieved, but today there was a snowstorm.
It's currently -9 degrees. It looks like it'll be below normal again in the next week or so.
The winter of the year may be cold.
NIFTY-Serve
———–
I have a couple of questions for Mr. Fujita.
1) Is it possible to automatically forward emails from NIFTY to WIDE?
2) It is possible to clip news and other information and receive it by email.
Is not it?
Because I was a little interested.
To Umemura-san: Japanese news via Internet or Bitnet LISTSERV
Is there any good way to receive it?
My favorite shareware lately
----------
Have you received the Shareware/Freeware list?
My recent favorite is StuffitExpand ver.3.0.
This allows you to convert BinHex, CompactPro, and Stffit in one go.
It will unzip the file. It is importing files from the Internet.
For me, the best thing about it is that it does all the work without me having to say anything.
It's a very reliable Drag&Drop app. When you specify a folder,
It will also automatically decompress it.
Also, I like the Desktop Printer.
This is also a Drag & Drop App, so you can drag and drop documents to the printer.
Just drop it on the icon and it will print.
You don't have to switch between printer and fax in the Chooser.
It's a good place.
If you have something to send,

The destination,

Kanagawa Prefecture Yokohama City Hodogaya Ward Kobe-cho 134
Nomura Research Institute, Ltd. Human Resources Department, Kata Kono

If you do this, the items will be delivered to you via OCS twice a month.
It's cheaper than Air Mail.
Christmas
---
London is in full Christmas spirit.
Due to the harsh winters in Canada, all the shops are indoors.
It's like the underground shopping mall in Shinjuku has been built above ground.
We drive to the shopping mall and shop in the warmth of the room.
From the second half of November, many shopping malls will be decorated for Christmas.
There are lots of decorations. And Santa Claus is in every mall.
There is Claus. Children are taking pictures with him.
This is probably also one aspect of Canadian subculture.
Evolution
-
What shocked me when I came here was that people were talking about Darwin.
I was surprised to see Christians criticize the theory of evolution.
"Bob's theory of evolution is also a hypothesis, but Darwin's theory of evolution is also just a hypothesis,"
The locals said, "It's ridiculous that humans evolved from monkeys.
mosquito."
Both are PhD students.
I was so shocked I couldn't close my mouth...
UWO ~= Keio theory
-----
I had no idea about it, but a Canadian student told me,
Queens University and the University of Western Ontario (UWO)
Apparently, it is a university where rich kids come. In particular, UWO is a university where medical students
This tendency is especially evident in the field of business administration, where most of the students are in the fields of law, law, and business administration.
According to a Canadian classmate,
It seems that women come to the school, become richer and richer, and graduate.
It's like Harvard or Stanford in the US.
Perhaps that is why, in terms of faculties, there is a strong connection with party schools.
It seems like he's been given a nickname he doesn't want.
On the other hand, Business Administration seems to be very famous.
We talked about Harvard and Stanford. We hold regular classes with these two schools every year.
They hold a competition there, and UWO has won for the past two years.
It seems that its social standing is also improving.
Lottery
-
Recently, I've been thinking about winning the lottery.
Then, I play my favorite music, write, and sometimes read and write papers.
I thought I would just live my life carefree. As of yesterday, I had won the lottery.
The first prize had ballooned to $5400000 million. If he had won,
That's good.
Emu Proteus/2
-----
Apparently it was finally shipped last Thursday. Will it arrive this week?
