The high temperature is an expression of the climate crisis.

Posted in: Cash-based Japan issues first new bills in two decades, designed against counterfeiting See in context

I don't use much cash myself lately. I use PASSMO on my phone, and recharge it using my phone, wherever possible (which includes vending machines nowadays). And in other places, I use PayPay. If I can't use either, I will use a Visa debit card, and cash is a last resort.

Good to know.

Pitching has kept Hanshin on the right side of 500. The bats have been awful. Particularly Ohyama and Sato.

Another MVP award? It's possible.

He is the odds on favorite. Harper and Ozuna could give him a run for his money.

Posted in: It's not as world-famous as ramen or sushi, but the humble onigiri is soul food in Japan See in context

 I rarely eat processed food except in restaurants (where we mostly have no idea what we are eating) and cook almost all my food from scratch. And I am a great cook, as anyone who has eaten my food will attest.

Good to know. Thanks for sharing.

Hit his 25th today. Shohei is on fire. Cashing in against the bottom feeders of the league. (Rockies, Angels and now White Sox)

The yen should be 180 to the dollar, that's a fact.

Then short it. No point posting about it.

Posted in: Glasnow strikes out 10 and Ohtani homers against his old team in Dodgers' 7-2 win over Angels See in context

2-13. 1 RBI in a 3 game series in The Bronx. Not horrible but far from great.

For people who love outdoor activities, February is the worst. A whole month planning indoor activities.

Pick up skiing/snowboarding.

June, July & August all blow goats but August is the worst.

Another jaw-dropping performance by Ohtani.

Great performance? Yes. Jaw-dropping? Hardly.

Kyle Tucker has 4 2HR games this year.

7 earned runs in 4 1/3. And he plays for the Cubs.

Posted in: Imanaga pitches 7 solid innings as Cubs beat Cardinals 5-1 See in context

 should be in this year's All Star Game. He's on fire.

The Brewers knocked him around pretty good but outside of that he has pitched well.

He is a shoe-in for the All-Star Game.

Posted in: Climate records keep getting shattered See in context

An air conditioner cannot work when the humidity is very high, because ice accumulates on the evaporator coil and blocks the air flow. Also, no AC would function when the temperature is 70 degrees Celsius. If tress are burning outside your house, you will not be able to use your AC.

It would behoove you to listen to this guy Steve.

Posted in: Japan to build anti-tourist fence at another Mount Fuji viewpoint See in context

I have never understood why people flock to these places to look at high mountains. My awe has never been inspired by such places, I prefer rolling hills and pastures to see, but woud not travel travel thousands of miles to do so. In the little county where I live with my girlfriend in the UK, there are many places like this, along with narrow winding roads.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.
