Summer

Summer quote

There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. ~Celia Thaxter

No price is set on the lavish summer;
June may be had by the poorest comer.
~James Russell Lowell, The Vision of Sir Launfal, 1848

I like summer, especially in the early morning.
I wake up before sunrise but it's already been dim bright.
Not cold nor warm outside, walking my dog and watching sunrise give me calm and refreshed.
In every summer time I become an early bird.

What is the mysterious mirror?

This is the answer for the mirror.

Mirror effect

I was very surprised to see the big mirror ball ahead of my car.
It was on my way home to drive a car.
The huge mirror has reflection of cars behind.....
What do you guess it is?




I will give the answer tomorrow.

Ponyo and gyoza

I had a happy lunch time, Chinese noodle and gyoza with a fish called Ponyo which is a mascot at the Chinese restaurant.
Ponyo is named after the popular Japanese animation film character.
I don't know if he or she ...but people coming to the restaurant are always happy and feel healing with Ponyo because of its cute and lovely face and funny action like following people who like to watch Ponyo.
Ponyo seems to welcome customers and give lip service.
I enjoyed cold noodle and gyoza on a hot day.
Ponyo was swimming in the water as cool as usual.
I think it the most delicious gyoza in my taste.

Good bye, Lonesome George

Lonesome George, the last giant tortoise of his kind, dies.
Lonesome George, the last of the Pinta island giant tortoises and a conservation icon, has died of unknown causes. He was believed to be about 100 years old. He was found in 1972 and become a symbol of the Galápagos Islands. His species helped Charles Darwin formulate his theory of evolution in the 19th century.

PC to TV

Recently my life at night has changed.
I seldom watched TV in my room because I didn't like regularly hocked into watching TV before. So I had rather browsed Internet on PC than TV.
But I'm caught with TV almost every night because of Dlife and Fox cenema these days....I've never been bored with various kinds of series of programs every night.
I'm so enjoying detective, human love, serious and comedy drama every night that might make me dull.

And what's more addictive to TV is Apple TV, which a friend lent me to try 'AirPlay' with iPhone.
I also enjoy using 'Apple TV' not only AirPlay but also watching podcasts and videos.
I will more make use of TV via new technology.

Rio+20 U.N. conference

Sustainable development emphasizes a holistic, equitable and far-sighted approach to decision-making at all levels. It emphasizes not just strong economic performance but intragenerational and intergenerational equity. It rests on integration and a balanced consideration of social, economic and environmental goals and objectives in both public and private decision-making.
The concept of green economy focuses primarily on the intersection between environment and economy. This recalls the 1992 Rio Conference: the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development.
