The Bullet Train

I researched about the bullet train. Japanese invented the bullet train. Many bullet train move in Japan. They are called Tokaido, Sanyo, Tohoku, Joetsu, Hokuriku, and Kyushu Shinkansen. Tokaido Shinkansen connects Tokyo and Osaka, many people use it. The Tokaido Shinkansen is the world's busiest high speed rail line. Carrying 151 million passengers a year in 2008, it has transported more passengers than all other high speed lines in the world. We can see Mt. Fuji when we ride Tokaido Shinkansen. Mt. Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan. It is beautiful, so it is a tourist spot in Japan. Japanese Shinkansen entertain foreigners. The bullet train has had a great effect on Japan's business, economy, society, environment and culture. The bullet train move over 200km per an hour. It runs for 2 hours and half hour between Tokyo and Osaka. Rails curve gently, there is not a railroad crossing. Those consider the safety. The bullet train is used all over the world. France used it for the first time in Europe. They made the bullet train which runs with 320km per an hour. The speed is the first record all over the world now. Many countries use the bullet train in Asia. China and Taiwan use the bullet train which is imported from Japanese technique. The bullet train is convenient vehicle, we can use it easily.

Corn Dolly

Modern corn dollies form based on traditional figures made of straw, previously connected with harvest customs of Europe. A corn dolly is made with the people of the district with one bundle of last wheat after finishing gain.
Some corn dollies were displayed in the church at the harvest festival, while some places had a tradition whereby the figure could be sent to make fun of a nearby farm which had not finished its harvest. Others often had a place of honor at the banquet table and they were hung up in farmhouse or barn until the following spring.
In England, materials are mainly wheat besides oats, rye and barley. In Ireland, they use rush.
Traditional corn dollies are named after counties or place names of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. For example, Cambridge shire Hand bell, Stafford Knot and Yorkshire Spiral or Drop Dolly. Other, there are corn dollies which are countryman's favors and other harvest designs. For example, Glory Braid, Harvest Cross and Harvest Wreath.

The British makes celebration every year if harvest time is over safety. Then "Harvest Festival" is held traditionally in a school and church of each cities, towns and villages.

Diet & Exercise

(1)DIET
I think that many women want to diet. Now many men want to diet, too. But diet is not continuing. Exercise is very tired and working women haven't a lot of time. Many people give up what people have started.
There are many ways to diet now. We can lose weight in meal. For example, "Diet of Soy milk". Soy milk is low calorie, but soy milk contain a lot of foodstuff same as soy. The foodstuff is mineral, dietary fiber and isoflavone. Isoflavone spoil our appetite.
Soy milk is sold in a supermarket or convenience store. We can drink it anywhere. And there are cookies which are made by soy milk. It is said that the cookies are delicious. The cookies are very popular with women now.
Let's try it!!!!!!

(2)EXERCISE


"Core Rhythms" is popular in Japan now. "Core Rhythms" is diet exercise the base of Latin dance. "Core Rhythms" is sold by DVD like "Billy's Boot Camp". These two make one set; One is the basic program and the other is the upper program.
The instructor are Yaana and Julia. They are Latin dancer with the best in the world.
We can get an hourglass figure after playing "Core Rythms". It is effective that we have played "Core Rythms" for two weeks.
I want to play it!!!!!

Laughter

(1) INTERESTING INFORMATION ABOUT LAUGHTER
A good laugh has great short-term effects. When you start to laugh, it just lighten your load mentally, it actually induces physical changes in your body, beginning with your face.
Laughter helps to remove stress. A rollicking laugh fires up and then cools down your stress response and increases your heart rate and blood pressure. Laughter soothes tension and stomachache, which helps reduce some of the physical symptoms of stress.

Laughter is effective antidote for these illnesses. Laughter relieves pain. Laughter may ease pain by causing the body to produce its own natural painkillers.

(2)COMEDY & OTHER FUNNY STUFF
I think funny movie is Tom and Jerry.
This scene is Tom is chasing Jerry. Tom catches up with Jerry, but Tom is caught in the trap which Jerry sets.
It’s the kind of thing that happens every time in this movie. Tom catches up with Jerry however he can’t make a counterattack.
Tom is a dupe, and Jerry is cunning.
The information of "Tom and Jerry" is THIS!!
