Why Ace Combat 6 has some fighters costs double?

I'd like to post the following comment on 1up, but couldn't...

The cute idolm@ster girl's models may give me a relief from strain in battlefields. But actually they are just expencsive for the people who have no interest for the idolm@ster. They may think why they costs 400MSP? or why such manga-like pictures are on the plains in the serious battlefields?

In Japan, the idolmaster DLC extremely has sold by several fans and the 3rd most sales in the world. The DLC includes costumes, accesaries, extra movies, new songs (Live for you, letest version of it), and so on. They costs 200MSP(acceseries) to 1200MSP(special costumes, extra songs) and the total(both 2 versions) is over 50,000....fanatic.

NBGI launched the painted plains for the im@s players. Then the firm drives them to buy. I believe the idolm@ster is an amusing game and the painted model in AC6 is available for the people cannot reach it. That's the best chance to inform them of im@s. The company might take advantage of fanatic fans and make exorbitant price...

College festival

Last week a festival was held.I went to the place.

I have some bitter memory about the festival. Since I was a freshman I was a staff but I didn't work at all. It's a great regret. I think I must do not to regret.
This time my purpose was to visit laboratories I'd like to enter.Laboratories were opened to visitors. Actually they were open to public but general people are unwilling to visit such intricate labyrinthes.
When I visit there, all visitors are the persons with some concerned. I was happy since I was welcomed than what I thought.
I am always stingy and I'd like to reseach about making persimonious system. We are assained laboratories to take seminars and to reseach last school year. I think deciding soon is better.

上个星期在我们大学纪念集会举行。我进去这个集会。我有一点失败的回忆。我是一个新生的时候，我是一个人员。不过我一点也不工作。后悔这件事。我觉得我得做以免后悔。我的目的是拜访我希望的研究室的。这时研究室公开，可是一般人不想访这样离奇的迷宫。
我拜访的时候，访问者都是有关系的人。我受研究生的欢迎，很高兴。
我想钻研节约系统。到最上级我属于一组研究班。我看早就决定是最好。

Replace bicycle tires

Last day I replaced bicycle tires with New ones.It looks many crackes on the tires. I continue riding it someday it'll burst.That's dangerous! If it burst when I pass over rails, I would pass away.



That's why I'll show you how to replace.Replacing front tire is simple, but rear is difficult. With transmission is still more.Happily my bicycle has no gearbox.

Rear tire:




1)Loose bolts and nuts to take off the wheelYou also take off a stand and a brake string. It's easy to trim after. No irresolute! You'll find out what it is!





2)Take off old tire and old tube from wheelI think it is just difficult. The tire tightly fits on the wheel.First, a vent nut is loosen. Use your palm and twist your hand.









3)Fix in new tube and new tireDon't use tools. Unless the tube is flawed, you put on by your hand.It's troublesome you make holes in it. The operation is reverse of taking off.The place of the air vent decide and fix in the tube and the tire by twisting your palm.







4)Fix wheelThis is the most important process.Sling the chain.Make through the (O--) type bolt.Put on the frame.Trim chain tention and brake. (see picture)Finally put on the stand.

Front tire:





1)Loosen nutsRemove nut covers. Loosen brake shoe but no need to remove.

2)Replace the tube and the tireSee about rear tire.

3)Put on wheelMake sure washers is put on.

Went to Takeshima

Long time no update. I went to Takeshima.

Liancourt Rocks is on the border between Japan and South Korea.
They are called Takeshima in Japan and Dokdo in Korea. South Korea claims it as Korean territory. Japan also claims.

The sea located the islands is called Nihonkai(日本海) in Japan and Donghae(東海) in South Korea.

Takeshima where I went has entirely nothing to do with Liancourt Rocks. Why did you talk about? Because there are some common points. Takeshima is located at 東海 region. It's
Tokai. Of course this Takeshima has no territorial dispute.
The fact is, there are some 竹島s in Japan and there is 竹島 in Korea, too. 竹島 (Takeshima) means literally Bamboo Island.

How to get
Takeshima is at Aichi prefecture, Central Japan. Getting by railroad is the most convenient. From Nagoya, get in JR Tokaido line for Toyohashi. Rapid is better.
From Tokyo, get in JR Tokaido Shinkansen for Nagoya, Osaka, or Hakata.
Any trains are OK, Hikari and Nozomi may pass through Toyohashi.
If you get in them, get out at Nagoya and change local line.

If you arrive at Gamagori station, go out south and then you get in bus or walk. It takes
about 10 minute by walk. Go straight, Over Apita(general merchandise store)and turn right.

About Takeshima
A festival held when I visit here. Probably because we had the consequtive holidays.
On the one hand Takeshima's vegetation is mainly broad-leaved trees. On the other hand, Japanese black pines grow on the opposit shore, which is mainland. The whole island is a natural monument for the different vegetation.

View from Takeshima to mainland

I crossed a bridge to the island. Shrines are built on the top of the island. But first I walked arownd. I climbed from the back. The main shrine is named Yaotomi and called Yaotomi Jinja(jinja=shrine).

Simple Shinto worship manner:
1) Wash your hands using scoop.
2) Go front the building.
3) Ring suspended bell shaking hanged rope.
3) Clap your hands twice.
4) Pray your wish.
5) Toss coin(s) to an offertory box.
Of course if you have other religion, you have not to worship.
They are worth looking as historical and artistic buildings.

The verge of extinction of night class engineering college

Nowadays it seems the number of night class school has been steadily decreasing. I looked into recent state. To begin with a bulletin board writing make the start to research. Someone said how many national and public colleges have engineering department will accept.

I found many universities and colleges, which accepted night school the past ended in acceptance, whereas like the department of business and some literature class are growing.
Some institutes still accept but the scale gets more and more reducing.

Originally night class is mainly for worker student, people who cannot afford to school other expensive college, people who have certain mental or physical problem, and so on. Richer this country is, less the amount of such people is.

Tell the truth, entering night class is easier than doing day class. Students couldn't be admitted day class are easy to enter in recent, people without their aim may account for more half of all students. But someone get used to be night class student, or they may think it's the right to enter night class. Perhaps many people have not so good preconceptions about night school.

Entering night college is good alternative for the following people। Because of to a few students lecture in spacious classroom, the half of day class tuition fee (night class needs about 270,000yen per year), and there are many your time.


近来我看来大学夜校数一点一点地减少了。我查最近的情况，我一看电子公告牌就开始查。某人说募集学生的国公立工学系大学在多少。

我觉得以前募集夜学生的大学收完了。却说商学系和文学系什么的增多了。几个工学系大学接收新生，却减人。

原来夜校存在对象勤工俭学的学生，不富裕的学生，和有身体上或精神上问题的学生，等等。越富国，越减这样学生。

说真的，夜校入学比昼间校容易。最近连不能够入学昼间校的学生也容易地入学。没有目的学生占有全体学生的超过一半。但是数人适应夜校，而他们可能觉得入夜学入对了。或许很多人存不好成见对夜校。

入学夜学是合适选择对上述的人。因为在宽敞的课堂上课，学生少，夜校学费比昼间校是半价（夜学花大概27万日元），和有很多时间。

The 4th Generation Light

I heard Blogs from Japan account for 30%. But I think, many of it may make up about a mere private diary or given up writing. For example, "Today, I went shopping with my friend. I bought too many purchases to bring home and so I call us a taxi. That's a very expensive shopping. " Uh, in such case I unconsciously had said "so what?" The truth is, it is possible that such diary contains some useful information, and nothing is the greater highlight of it than composition their blog as hard as they could.

Let's change the subject. I found LED light and bought it. The person who know about electronics will also know it. It is often called "The fourth light". I replaced small bulb with it.

Compare ordinal type of light(Same brightness or so besides candle)

	Name	Life	Cost	Watt
1st	Candle	some hour	$1-	Fire
2nd	Bulb	1000H	$0.5-	60W
3rd	Fluorescent Lamp	6000H	$5-	13W
4th	LED	40000H-	$50-	5W

Though LED has very low energy consumption, its initial cost is quite expensive.
Now I think the most reasonable choice is still fluorescent lamp.
It may be just early to replace old light with LED if it is not to your taste.


I bought it at a camera shop for 380yen($3.20).
