A Risk Using Wi-fi Hotspots

Have you ever used wi-fi hotspots outside?  Have you ever imagined that it is risky?  There are a lot of wi-fi hotspots outside such as cafes and restaurants.  However, it is dangerous to adress sensitive information via open insecure wi-fi internet.  Recently, the number of victims who were stolen their sensitive information is increasing.  Criminals stole our information when we are on an open insecure wi-fi internet and transmit such information to banks, shops, and so on.  Surprisingly, it is done with comparatively easy techniques.  Not only individuals but also large companies were falling this type of crime.  Attackers used hotspots to get at particular individuals rather than to grab all the data flowing from everyone using a public network, said Ms McMurdie.  Everyone should be aware of what they are putting at risks when they use wi-fi networks, so am I.

Innovative Invention!!

  Barrier free is one of the biggest problems around the world.  In Japan, many equipments have installed to faciliate physically-challenged people's life.  Needless to say, all people have rights for freedom.  However, people living with sight loss face a lot of  problems and that prevent them from going to new places.  "Currently, visiting a new city is often daunting, even for people with enough confidence to tackle the challenge independently. For others, who rarely leave home alone, the thought of an unfamiliar journey leaves them stressed and anxious and visiting a new area is an impossible dream." explained Jenny Cook, head of strategy and research at Guide Dogs.

  To solve this problem, Microsoft invented an innovative headset.  It is adapted version of one which is already on sale.  It is designed for cyclists.  The headset gives users necessary information through a ear. Tests have been done and blind people felt more confident when they were using them.

  Thanks to advance of technology, barrier free may be realizable in the near future.

Ebola Virus Disease

Now I often hear about Ebola Virus Disease through a lot of medias.  By the way, what is it? I researched about it and got general knoledges about it.

Ebola is a serious disease which is prevalent mostly in African area, and prove fatal.  It infects people through broken skin.  It take anything up from two to 21 days to appear the symptoms. People are infectious as long as Ebola is in their body, in some case, up to seven weeks after they recover.  

The early symptoms are a sudden fever, muscle pain, fatigue, headache and sore throat.  Patients are prone to die from dehydration and multiple organ failure.

There is no direct cure for the disease, and patients are isolated from other people and get intensive cure from medical experts.  However, there are some potential medicines. If it is successful, it is used for healthcare workers first.

Make sure that anyone is at lisk of this disease.  Healthcare workers weare protective clothing, but hundreds of them have died.  The only precaution for this is to avoid contact with patients.

Fortunately, in Japan, there is not the patients, however, we must know about the disease and what to do, in case it comes into Japan.

Miracle Umbrella

It is almost 2015, science techiniches have advanced, but cool things which are like in Draemon, Japanese famous cartoon, haven't appear yet.  However, we may get a huge leap in umbrella technology.  What do you imagine when you hear new umbrella is about to be developed?  It's " air umbrella."  As it is named, it doesn't rely on conventional materials to keep you drying, but instead, creates force of air which is so strong.  It deflects the rain from the area above you.  Intrestingly, the size is adjusutable, meaning by twisting the handle, the area of coverage could be increased.  The size is potentially huge, so it could cover comfortably two people.

Are you facinated by the miracle umblella?  The umbrella would be launched from next spring.  Before you buy, why don't you check this movie, and look at how useful that!

Donburi

 Today's class was canceled because typhoon struck Kinki area.  I was free today.  However I went to uni afternoon and I discussed about presentation contest which I am going to participate in with my partner. 

 I haven't cooked new dishes recently, so this blog homework gives me opportunities to cook new dishes.  I cooked Donburi using seasonal vegitable; eggplant.  This is it. 

Donburi is a Japanese food that ingredients are served over rice in oversized bowl.  You can put anything you like on rice.  I put eggplant, onion, cabbage and pork.  I seasoned it with sauce which soy sauce, suggar, sake and vinegar were mixed.  It was tasty but I wanted more thick taste.  I wonder what to add in the sauce next time.

New semester

Long summer vacation has finished, and fall semester has just began.  I enjoyed the vacation hunging out with my friends.  But I felt that it was too long.  The former half of it was great, filled with a lot of plans.  On the other hand, I was just working the other half.  I had no money to visit anywhere.

 Now, a week has passed since fall semester began.  And I'm regletting that I shoud have studied in the long vacation to study abroad. In fact, some students have already achieved a criteria of it.  He says " I studied so hard, and manadged to get necessary score on TOEFL test." Then I decided to get necessary score during this semester. So I decreased the amount of time to work.

 I am going to do everything more seriously than ever before in this term, and challenge many things to improve myself.

Hoikoro

Annoying thing happened today. My bike was stolen. I'm really shocked and I can't believe that my attached bike was stolen. I have been used it for about 6 years. I want the thief to give my bike back.

Today, before my bike was stolen, I cooked Hoikoro for lunch. This is it.

 

Hoikoro is a Chinese dish. I think it's great that everybody can cook anything at their home. There is anything in supermarket recently. I just bought sauce of hoikoro and mixed with stir-fried vegitables. How easy! The taste was, of cource, nice!
