Steve Jobs kindle version


I finished Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson of kindle version.

This is the best biography that I have ever read.
It was thought provoking and there were many precious things in it.
For instance, to focus have great power.

It took two months to read.
I looked up words in dictionary so frequently.
My kindle is installed English-Japanese dictionary. 
It is very useful.
I can know the mean of the words If I put cursor in front of them.


If I used an electric dictionary, it would have had more time to read it.
I have never think to use usual paper dictionary, it would have taken much time.

Moreover, the price of kindle version is 11.99 dollars.
If you buy the printed book in Amazon jp, It costs 4290 yen (51 dollars).
The translated version of Japanese is 3990 yen (48 dollars).
I don't know why the translated version is cheaper than original one.

What books do you recommend?

Squid and Fish Dishes



There are squid sashimi, squid sauté, boiled squid with mustard source, 
and mackerel miso source.

I cooked all of these.


We went squid fishing in Wada on the last Sunday.
Unfortunately, I had sea sick because the sea was little rough.
So, I couldn't concentrate fishing and was lying on the boat deck in the later half.
My kind friend shared some his catches with me.

I felt little tired after fishing and cooking.
But I had very happy dinner with my family.

Fuel Cell Vehicle


 There were a lot of fuel cell vehicles in a trade show in Tokyo. It  is said that their energy efficiency is very good.

 But the hybrid cars, like Prius,  are improved  remarkably. On the other hand electric vehicle is also developed enthusiastically.



 I guess the survivor of them is the one that is superior to cost-performance balance.
Anyway, I'm looking forward 10 years later.
