エンゲル係数 Engel's coefficient

新しいビルで初検診。ものすごく広くなっており、次はどこへ行ったら良いのかさっぱりわからんかった（それにしてもあんな広さ自体がいらないのでは？）。で、今日は初エコーを受けたかも。女性は妊娠時に胎児の状況確認とかでやるけど、自分は初めてだったんでちょっと微妙な感じ（ジェルがちょっとひわいでキモかった）。最近、全く動けてないので、体重増加はちと痛かったのだけど、そろそろ夏に向けて減量せねば。減量と言えば、今日件の同僚と一緒に帰ったのですが、食費の話になり、湯水のように使っているとか聞いてちょっとびっくり。そもそも、奥さんと共働きなのだけど（フルタイムなので相当給料はあるはず）、5人家族で1ヶ月食費が30万！な、何ですと－？何でも、生協系の宅配とかで週2万円、それ以外にヘルシアとか黒ウーロンなどを大量ダース買いで激太りしている長男が水代わりに飲んでいるとか、毎週外食とか（まぁ、野球やらバスケやらいろいろとあるし）、食べ盛りなので米も相当、当然普段のスーパーの買い物でも冷凍食品などどか買いらしい。ちなみに、うちの節約好きの神さんに食費を聞くと、3万円以下とか（米無し、外食費別）。うーん。

I had my health check at the new building for the first time. It became wider than before , so I didn't understand where I should go next at all (Even so it doesn't need such a wide space). Well , I was checked by echo. Woman usually is checked by it when she is pregnant , Because of the first time , I felt sensitive (I felt that the gel was obscene and disgust). I have not moved recently , although I have a pain to increase my weight to 2kg , I will have to decrease my weight for Summer. Speaking of diet , I returned home with my colleague today , when he talked about his food cost , I was surprised that he used much money for food. He is double income (his wife must be getting much salary because she is fulltime) , I heard it was 300,000 yen per a month because he is 5 families. R, Really ? He (mainly she) buys some food for 20,000yen from the Coop every week , and heavy fat eldest son drinks several dozens of Helsia and Black Woo Ron tea instead of water , every week dining out (well , as he has son's baseball and daughter's basketball), rice's consumption is bigger because of growing children , they naturally seem to buy many frozen foods at usual shopping in a supermarket. By the way , I asked my wife who likes saving how much it is , it was less than 30,000 yen every month (except rice and dining out).

WILLCOM 03

出ましたけど、スライドキーボードはやっぱり踏襲なんでしょうか。個人的には電話として使うことを考えると、Nokia E61やTreoなどの方が良いし、他のアプリでテキスト入力も考えると、NokiaE90かなぁ（でかいけど）。いい加減、W-ZERO3[es]から卒業したいんだけどねぇ（そろそろ2年かぁ）。やっぱり、SHARP製っていうのがネックだろうね。まぁ、WILLCOMも夏で終わりかな。

WILLCOM 03 was released , but it seems to adopt sliding keyboard as the former model. I like simple smartphone like Nokia E61 , Treo because I use it as a phone , if I usually input text by the keyboard , I wonder that the best is Nokia E90 (it is too big). No more use W-ZERO3[es] , I would graduate from it. I think , what it is produced by SHARP is the bottleneck. Well , I will stop WILLCOM in Summer.

物価 Commodity Prices

昨日の夜から大雨で、朝方まで洪水警報が出ていたかも。午後まで雨だったので、アウトドアは無理だなと子供を志都呂のジャスコに連れて行くことに。ゲームコーナー等で適当に子供を放牧後、買い物をして帰ったのですが、いやー、何もかも高いですね。先週、別のスーパーで日清のカップヌードルが通常98円均一が118円に値上げされていたなぁと思ったけど（発砲スチロールのカップが無く中身だけのバージョンが98円で発売されていた）、今日はこの前まで300円以下だったトイレットペーパーが400円を超えて販売されており、オイルショックの時みたいにパニックにはなっていないけど、逆に全く売れてないようでした。一方、1個110円のセールをやっていたミスドはすげー列。小麦も上がったからなぁ。ガソリンも何もかも高いですが、どうなっちゃうんでしょうね。

It was heavy rain from night , A flood warning was issued until early in the morning. Because it was rainy until the afternoon , I thought outdoor playing was impossible , so I took my son to Shitoro Jusco city. After I pastured him in a game corner etc , I did shopping and returned home , but everything becomes expensive. Last week , I realized that Nisshin Cup Noodle was raised from usually a uniform price 98 yen to 118 yen (Instead that an inside only version without a styrofoam's cup was released for 98 yen) , I was surprised that 18 rolls of toilet tissue paper was raised from less than 300 yen to over 400 yen today. Although a panic didn't happen like an oil shock , they seemed not to be popular at all. It was terrible crowd because of the sale of discounted doughnut to 110 yen. A wheat , a gasoline and everything was raised , so how about us.

嬉しい勝利Pleasant Win

同僚には今日は雨だから撮影は良いよーってことだったのですが、午前中は曇り空で雨降らず。午後から雨ということで、定刻より20分早く試合開始の連絡を受けたけど、準備もしてなかったからいきなり行っても終わっちゃうだろうと自宅でまったりしていると、優勝候補に勝って初戦突破とか。2戦目は午後からなので間に合うだろうかと、まずは代車をディーラーに返し、車検の終わったMINIで高速をかっ飛ばして現着（試合開始5分前）。速攻で設置して撮影開始。ただ、10分くらいで大雨に。やっぱり午後から雨の予報は当たったかも。午前中の試合は投手戦で最終回に1-0のサヨナラ勝ち。2戦目は初回、中回に得点を重ね、ゲーム成立の5回裏に7点差となるサヨナラコールドヒットで終了。それも、今まで調子の悪かった同僚の息子がそのヒットをかっ飛ばしたから、機嫌の良いこと。先月の悔しい逆転負けを払拭する勝利ですな。

My colleague said that I didn't need a photography because it was going to be rainy today , but it was cloudy in the morning and a rain didn't not fall. The game was started early for 20 minutes as it was going to be rain from the afternoon , I relaxed in my home because I was not ready to the photography and if I went to the stadium , I thought that the game might be over before arriving. But I suddenly received the message that his team won a favorite and broke through the first match. I thought that I was in time for the second game from the afternoon , so I went to a MINI dealer to return a loaner car , I received my MINI that a inspection was finished , and I drove it fast to the stadium with an express way. I arrived 5 minutes before starting the game. I immediately set up my tripod and started the photography. But it begun to rain terribly within ten minutes. The weather forecast was bingo after all. The first match became a pitchers' game and they won it with 1-0 in the bottom of the last inning. In the second match , they got points at the first ining and the middle inning , it was over at the 5th inning with a called game by a hit. And the hit was blasted by my colleague's son who was bad condition today , so they were delight. The win wiped it out to suffer the reversal last month

COWON

注文していたCOWONのiAUDIO 7がやってきたので早速ファイルを転送して再生してみました。何か反応が微妙にセンシティブであり、かなり使いにくいかな。ボタンがセンシティブの割には、起動や再生がもっさりだとか何かわからん（さすが韓国製）。明示的にボタンクリックやダイヤルの方が使い易いかもしれない。音楽再生機能以外の部分では、AVIはどうやら専用ソフトで変換したモノじゃないと駄目みたいですな（JPGは行けるが画面がこれでは小さすぎるか）。音楽の方は、音的にはまぁまぁじゃないか。MP3なので、そんなに期待はしてませんでしたが、悪くもなくという感じでしょうか。

I play them after sending files because the iAUDIO 7 of COWON that I ordered arrived. Because the response is very sensitive , it is fairly difficult for me to use. I don't understand the concept because the start and play action are slow although the sensibility is high (It is indeed made in Korea). I think that it should adopt a clickable button or a jog dial. About the functions except playing music , it can not play AVI files if they are not converted by the special software of PC (JPG is OK , but the screen is too small...). About playing music , I feel that it is not bad, I has not expected because of MP3.

週末Weekend

今週末は又同僚の野球の試合があるけど、どうしようかな。先週中止になったのですが、どうやら相手チームが県大会優勝チームで、別の大会に出るために、そのブロックだけ延期になったようなんだけど、通常はそういうのって不戦敗じゃないのかねー。まぁ、その強いチームが出ないことには意味がないのかもしれないけど。撮影で一番困るのは、三脚が使えるか使えないかが現地に行くまでわからないことか。設置できても、人が多すぎて畳む必要があったり、結局、一脚になることもあるんだけど、報道じゃ無いんでねー。個人的に、三脚と一脚だとやはり歩留まりが3倍くらいは違う気がします。ただ、一番良い写真が撮れるのは、手持ちで撮った時ですけど。

There will be the baseball game of my colleague's son again , but what should I do ? The game was called off because an opposing team that is strong and seems to have won the championship of prefectural tournament participated in another tournament. So only the block's games were postponed , but it usually let them be lost by a default in this case. Well , if the team don't participate in the game , it may be considered as the worthless game. If I should set it , I have to close it because of a crowd and I must use my monopod. But I am not a reporter. I feel personally that there are more successful photographs to use a tripod than a monopod. But the case that I can take the best photograph is to use neither tripod nor monopod.

まだ迷うUndecided

MP3プレーヤーでまだ迷っていたりする。最初は機能面とか価格からcowonが良いかなぁと、漠然とiAUDIO U5-8G-BSがビックカメラで安かったので衝動的に注文までしていたのだけど、掲示板などでよくよく調べると、不安定とか不具合などの報告が多く、ちょっと不安になったのもありキャンセル。そういう面ではアイリバーはまともだったかな。今のアイリバーはあまり良くないみたいなので、後はiPodか評判の良いソニーなんだろうけどねぇ。個人的には専用ソフトが不要のモノが良いのですが、そうなると結局韓国勢なんでしょうか。

I am not still sure which MP player I should buy. First , I was going to choose the cowon's one because of the function and the price , so I impulsively ordered iAUDIO U5-8G-BS from BicCamera.com because it was cheaper than other net price , but I canceled it after all as I worried that it was unstable and had many troubles in a bulletin board. About the point , iriver's one was good. The recent one of iriver seems to be bad , so I should choose the iPod or the Walkman of SONY which reputation is good , shouldn't I ?. I personally think better that songs can be sent to it without special software for connection. Korean machines have an advantage in that way.

半袖Short Sleeve

今日からシャツを半袖にしてみたりする。ただ、さすがにちょっと寒かったかな。それにしても、5月になってちょっと気温が低いような気がしますね（冬みたいに夜は風も強い）。旅行に行った翌日がものすごく暑い夏日で、それ以降は曇天とか低迷していますし、気象的には平年並みなんでしょうかねぇ。

I changed to short sleeve from today. It was indeed cold. Even so I feel that the temperature seems to be a little lower than an average year in May (it is windy like winter at night ). When I went to the trip , it was heavy hot like summer , clouds hang low after the day. Is the temperature the same level as an average year ?

MP3プレーヤMP3 Player

4年前にアイリバーの半導体プレーヤーを買ったのですが、さすがに内蔵メモリ512Mbyteは厳しいと感じてきました。これまではBBCなどのポッドキャストや録音モノなどを転送して聞いてましたけど、ひとこと辞典などのMP3を転送したら全く足りないかも。一応、SIIの辞書でも再生はできるんですが、いかんせん、SDカードが2Gまでであり、それに再生機能がおまけだからちょっと使いにくいんですよねー（やはりこの辺は専用機が良いなぁ）。で、いろいろ物色しているのですが、わけがわからんかも（種類が多すぎて選ぶのがかなり面倒臭い）。手っ取り早いのはiPodとかアイリバー系なんだろうけど（ソニーは何となく独特規格っぽくて嫌だな）。

I bought a semiconductor player of i-river , I feel that it becomes indeed severe because the built-in memory is 512Mbyte. Although I have sent podcasts and records of the BBC to it and heard them till now , the memory became short that I sent MP3s of "Hitokoto Eikaiwa Jiten" etc. An electronic dictionary of SII can play MP3s for the time being , but available SD card is less than 2Gbyte and it is hard to use because the MP3 player is an extra function. (MP3 special machines is good after all). I am looking them , but I confuse because of too many kinds (and I am bothered to choose from them) . I should choose ipod or i-river in the quick way (I feel unpleasant that Sony may adopt an original standard. ).

車検Car Inspection

朝方、地域の清掃を軽くやったあと、本当なら今日は同僚の息子の野球大会だったのですが、何故か急遽中止になったとかで、スケジュールが空いてしまったりする。どこか撮影に行くにも、時間的に中途半端だったのと天気も曇りでいまいちだったのもあり、自宅でまったり。午後から、MINIをディーラーへ車検に出しに行くけど、貰った代車がLOGOで何だかやたらぼろい。来週、返しに行く時に乗るだけだし、まぁ良いかなぁ。車検の方は必要最小限コースにして貰う。最近、結構いろいろお金を使っていて経済的に苦しく感じてきたのもあり（税金、旅行、英語、諸々と相当使っているような気がする）、夏に向けてそろそろ節制かな。会社の業績が悪くなってきたのもあり、ボーナスがかなりやばい状態なので、今年は苦しいかな。

After I lightly cleaned up the local area in the morning , I should have photographed a baseball game of my colleague's son. But it suddenly was canceled , so my schedule became vacant. If I went somewhere for a photography , it was halfway in terms of time and it was cloudy , so I relaxed at home. I brought my MINI to a car dealer for car inspection from the afternoon , but the substitute car , that was Honda LOGO , was fairly beat-up . I will return it next week , so I try to endure. I let the car inspection be the minimum course. Because I felt hard about money shortage so that I used much money for the tax , the travel , English , and so on. I must refrain from spending money for summer. I will have a hard situation for money until a year end because the bonus is dangerous for bad result of my company.
