World No-Tobacco Day

It's "World No-Tobacco Day" today. Yes, May 31st.

It's one of International Days to promote NO SMOKING designated by WHO.

I got to know about this day at AMC (Adventist Medical Center) at this time of 1995 when I was seeing doctors there.

It's almost 12 years since I quitted smoking.
I used to smoke when I got angry or when I was under big stress.
I say I stopped smoking, but I still have those initiators for smoking, so
I wonder if I can say "I'm free from smoking!"

That's why I think I can understand the feeling of smokers who resist to quit smoking.

I myself think that it put everything back to the beginning if I smoke one tobacco, and this makes me refrain from smoking, and I hope it will be like this forever.

ICM2009

I've been planning the trip of this summer.

Accompanying a conference held in Karlsruhe, we are planning to visit Germany and Austria. In addition, it will be nice to Switzerland.

Landscape? or Portrait?

For a long time, I liked "Landscape" composition for my photos, though, I came to select "Portrait" these days. Especially when I take foods, I often take in both composition, and I result in selecting "Portrait"

The following are the photos I took at Ouchi Cafe+ in Ginowan City.

This is "Landscape".


This is "Portrait".

Time management

This has been my life-time issue.

Most of my mistakes or loses have been due to this.

How can I be better at this?

New Contract and New Apperance

I renewed my contract this morning.
It is my 5th year in MTEC.
Well, in general, I like my present job and team.

And I renewed the appearance of this blog.
Back to the ready-made template. It may be boring a little, because many bloggers are using the same one. But I have other advantages such as a gadgets. Now it is flexible to add other gadgets developed by other venders. Thanks to this, I can sustain "Where are you?" with the world map.
Of course, the side bar of this has "Follower", so please put yourself in there!!
