Now it's being investigated and would be an action at court...
I drove out from the parking lot of my office. The first traffic light was red, so I waited at the end of line of several cars. All of sudden, somebody hit my car from the back and I hit another car in front, in response to the smash.
Nobody was injured. In fact, right after that accident, I felt a light backache, but now I don't feel any pain after some excercise. Think daily physical excercise helped a lot, otherwise I would smash my head to somewhere.
Now the car is in a garage to be inspected by expert from my insurance company. As far as the repair garage estimated, it seems to cost about 7000 euro that is almost equivalent with market price of the same grade car.
Fortunately I have "legal aid" to hire a lawyer in action at coart. Since I don't want to pay any to repair, neither I don't lose the car, I would use the legal aid to organize the complete amount to recover everything.
It seems taking long time to conclude it...

I'm going to Japan for a week from today. I'll be staying in a very surburb area from Tokyo, where I can't expect to be intrested in so much things. I'll be with my colleague who has never been to Tokyo, so all I can do is helping him during his first trip to Japan.
I'm taking unwanted underwears to Japan because there might be no time to wash them. I'll just dump used one and wear another everyday. Beside I would buy new ones there, so that the underwears will be replaced with new one. Japanese underwear is quite confortable maybe because of good textile technologie.
I'm looking forward nothing more. I'll be busy in the plane to Japan by making a presentation data, which makes me quite nervous.]]>Ekidenhttp://bitte.jugem.cc/?eid=1982005-11-07T02:10:58+09:002005-11-06T17:42:30Z2005-11-06T17:10:58ZWhat is an Ekiden?

Together with three colleagues, I joined to "Rabo Amstelveen Ekiden", and finished third out of 17 teams. Although the total number of participents was not so many, it was so confortable to get the medal on the podium when we were commended.
The team that finished second last year came the first this year. They are a family and is consisted by the father and the kids. They are still young. It seems quite difficult to beat them next year. However it's so "Mottainai" to give it up easily, so I would have it as an object for 2006 in secrecy :P.

Today I put some Calvados in Coffee by just a curiocity. However the result is more than the expectation. Flavour from the cup smells like a well-matured apple. Of course taste of the coffee is not like apple as most of calvados don't. But the flavour is enough as I would name "Apple coffee"!
I'm sure that I'm be into it for several weeks from now.

It would be "Mottainai" if people don't prove their physical ability. That's why I joined to half marathon to see how far my body has physically improved.
Since I pulled left hamstring this year, I thought the time would be somehow very normal. But the result was better then the last best time, and is absoltely better than
Iexpected. The only regret is that the avarage speed could not exceed 12Km/h, but it's also nice to have next target, right?
That's all for this year. I'm looking forward the next big event in 2006.

There is a campaign in Japan, which is a part of gcap campaign. The aim can be understood very much, and I want to contribute it if I can. But apparently it's too commercialized as much as a fashion trend, which people just feel like contribution.

Until now, a name "Ajax" only reminds me a pro-football team in Amsterdam or name of a cleaning material brand.
Today A blog introduced Ajax as an leading technology, which stands for "Asynchronous JavaScript + XML". However it's not that new because Ajax is a grand sum of conventional technologies such as XHTML, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, XMLHttpRequest. So it's not a newcomer, but a revival.
But don't look it down. I'm sure you'll be impressed after looking at those sites. So let's give it a try the following sites!
Google Maps
No need comment. The first draggable map without any plugin.
Google Suggest
The candidate options are shown in pull-down menu with the hit count.
Google local
Candidate shops in the designated area shown with pop-up notes.
Protopage.com
Hard to describe, but let's say it's an online desktop!
Those are all interesting, aren't they?
Playing with those sites, you should find that the objects on screen can be moved without refreshing the whole screen. Comparing to those using like flash or Java platform, the apparent responce speed is completely faster.
I believe this technology should become a big boom next few years in web creater's field. So I can expect more performance without extra investment of hardware.

Despite the long night, I could gain almost nothing. Just could not leave from PC. Today I've been so tired, and couldn't think deeper about anything. I even couldn't notice the terrible condition.
