    Sure iPhone 4 has a few problems. What phone doesn’t? People make phones and people are imperfect. How can we expect a phone to be anymore perfect than us? iPhone 4 definitely has an antenna problem. There are no if, ands or buts about it. Every iPhone 4 owner needs a bumper or some kind [...]

  • KByte wrote a new blog post: Instead, Just Cook Nutritional Meals   2 weeks, 4 days ago · View

    First Lady, Michelle Obama wants to fight obesity in America. Honorable challenge. However, in my opinion, at the cost of 8 billion $$, I believe a healthier school system and society can be achieved at a much lower cost to Americans. School districts can hire nutritionists. By hiring a nutritionist for a school district and not [...]

    Just found an app to help track your daily diet and nutrition. It’s called MyNetDiary.

    There are two option. One you can use the app and tie it into a website so you can use it on your iPhone or computer. The other option is to just use it on your iPhone. I chose option 2 because I put the information in on the go more than I do sitting down.

    I like being able to create my own recipes. Once I have created a recipe I can use it over and over to reduce time putting the information into the app. There are also thousands of other recipes and foods already available to quickly add to your daily diet.

    The app tracks your food intake, exercise, weight, water intake, vitamins and meds. You can view charts and graphs, track the amount of nutrients and minerals you have consumed. It is easy to use and provides a great way to keep track of how many calories, fat, fiber, carbs and protein you eat each meal.

    If you need to lose weight or just want to keep an eye on your health and eating habits, I highly recommend this app. To add one more point, this app is free and you don’t have to join any site to begin using it…unless you want to.

    I know of a place at the other end of Matsuiyamate near Doshisha University. There is a park and skateboard park that people can use and I think it is free. People can play basketball and other sports there outside on the grounds.

    Arakashi koen is a good park where lots of kids play on the Hashimoto side of Yawata or at Satsuki koen where kids can play baseball, soccer and tennis. Is that the kind of playing you are talking about?

    In reply to - Yoshiko Ueda posted an update: Does someone know any place where little kids can play around Yawata city for free? The person who has informations, please let me know. · View

    Thumbnail The lowest priced iPad is currently sold at around $499 in America and ¥48,960 in Japan and then goes up as harddisk space and other options are tacked on. If iPhone prices can come down to $97 at Walmart when the device used to be priced at a hefty $800, iPad could stand to shed some $ signs [...]

    Thumbnail Costco has been raising prices on products as more and more people begin shopping at the Amagasaki store, not lowering them. As the demand gets higher, so do prices. Costco either does not have enough product to support the demand or they are raising prices because the demand for the product is great and Japanese [...]

    Thumbnail I just bought a pair of shoes from Uniqlo that cost me ¥790. Now that is cheap! I thought they would be a waste of money because they were so cheap. I thought that my feet would hurt shortly after wearing them. Boy was I wrong! They are comfortable! My Nike running shoes I bought last year are also [...]

    A video of Sir Paul McCartney taking a stab at President Bush is no longer available on YouTube. How did that happen? Probably a call from the White House made the video disappear. It goes to show just how much weight President Obama and his administration have and hope to get more of by implementing [...]

    AT&T has just begun capping smartphone new user plans saying it needs to ease congestion on its network. One reason they have so much congestion is because their networks are old and outdated.
