Hey, this is not bad - but having a bread maker makes is very dangerous for one's silhouette, LOL. I believe this should be able to cook normal bread also.

Don't give away your business cards to just anyone (even if it's the custom in Japan, there are good reasons not to follow it).
After being stung once (at a technology show someone got my card and sold the info to one of these companies), I am very careful with this...
Also you don't have to be nice with the spammers, remember, "time is money..."

Softbank really sucks (as their users, myself included suck air between clenched teeth trying to get a connection), but this commercial is a genial strike and one of the best CM series to be aired in Japan...

After my Canon 20D's autofocus broke, I started to take much better pictures (with manual focus, and full manual controls). Using manual will make the photographer stop and think about what they are doing (as opposed to snapping like maniacs 2-3 thousands shots a day)...

Cleo, it was in Northern Europe, the PC was used to take log data for 24 hours, then it slipped from my hands directly into ice cold river water. No problems at all and I'm still using it, 3 years after. I work in automotive

Thank you Panasonic. I couldn't possibly do my job without a Toughbook. Mine was once frozen at - 25 degrees then dropped in water, and it still survived...

I practice kyudo, and it's also a form of meditation (while moving) and very much zen. I do believe zen is not a religion, mistique, tradition but it becomes a way of life for the persons choosing it as so.

1 - Television - children will be able to quickly learn to understand 2 even 3 languages simultaneously - it worked for me when very well... 2 - Talking the language - each parent should exclusively use his native language while talking to the child - or use rules like alternating the days in the family - if both parents can speak their language of their spouse.

Looks nice and clean, like a hospital room, probably simpler and cheaper to operate than the USA's gas or injection chambers... Japan shows again that "simpler is better"... after all, even the most primitive and barbaric countries must be proud of something sometimes...
