パソコンが勝手に再起動

Photo_2   PCが時々、勝手に再起動するようになった。8年前の自作。原因は様々考えられた。普通の電子機器の寿命は7,8年。もう限界か?兎に角カットアンドトライで調べた。電源、CPU,マザーボード,VGAボード、、、たどり着いたのはDDRメモリだった。経年変化で誤動作するようになっていた。余ったものを寄せ集めていたことがよくなかった。必要最小限に減らして問題解決。

BEYER Completed

S_3 I have taken 23 month to complete the Beyer etude ( works for practice ) for piano. The last 10 works required more physical training than before.Each fingers should be moved independently. But it is very difficult to do that. I might need another 2 years or more to play the works that I want to play.

Shirakawa-go

Photo_2   Shirakawa-go is one of the world heritage in Japan. Here is famous for the Gassho-zukuri, It is the old style of a house in this area. It has 3 or 4 floors. According to the history, the people living these houses are the descendant of the Heike family who was defeated by the Genji family around 800 years ago. Though it is a old small village but now I can hear more chinese words rather rather than Japanese. I noticed that here is the world heritage.

Toojin-bo

S There is a Legend of TooJin-bo (bo mean Buddhism monk). Time was a long time ago. There was a Monk who had marvelous physical strength named Toojin-bo. He was fascinated with a beautiful princess in the provinces. However there was a rival in love named Magara Kakunenn who was also a monk. When there was a party on the rock, Kakunen pushed down Tojin-bo from this precipitous cliff. Then the weather changes for the worse rapidly and continued the thunder and rain storm for 5 days. The revengeful ghost of Toojin-bo became into a large wave and intensely it struck and it kept hitting the rock wall. Since then this clif called Toojin-bo. April 5 is the anniversary of his death.

Theater Yamanaka-za

S    The Honorary chairman is Ms.Mitsuko Mori who is the most famous actress in Japan.I do not know the reason why she is. The theater is center of Yamanaka onsen (hot spring: hot spring source). Every body can take a bath at the source spring. No additional heating, it is hot enough to take a bath. Actually, it is too hot to take a bath without adding water.
