Coli bacteria live in the human and livestock animal intestines. Normally, they are harmless, but some are of high pathogenicity and cause gastroenterological diseases, including diarrhea. EHEC is one of those toxic bacteria, and O157, O26, and O111 are among them. EHEC characteristics #1 Develops symptoms even with a small amount It takes one million bacteria to develop a food poisoning case, but all it takes is 10 to 50 EHEC to do the same. EHEC characteristics #2 Is capable of producing deadly toxin EHEC produces deadly toxin called “verotoxin” in the human intestine, causing bowel inflammation accompanied by bleeding and hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS). Typical symptoms: Diarrhea (often bloody), stomach pain, fever, vomiting, etc. In a critical case, it could develop serious complications like HUS as well as brain encephalopathy (convulsion, loss of consciousness, etc.) Foodstuffs that have caused food poisoning in the past: Beef and beef products, salad, pickled Chinese cabbages, well water, etc. Four things you can do to prevent O157 infection in your kitchen Wash your hands thoroughly before preparing meals Cook foodstuffs at 75 degrees C one minute or longer Wash vegetables thoroughly Wash cooking utensils thoroughly and subsequently sterilize them by pouring boiling water over them Influenza Prevention Two most important things to practice in influenza prevention are “not to get infected” and “not to pass it to others.” You can comply with them fully by practicing the followings. ● Wash your hands and gurgle after you came home from outside. ● Get a flu shot well before expected pandemic outbreak. You can get a flu shot at your local clinic. ● Sleep well, eat nourishing foods, and stay away from crowded places. ● If you are coughing, follow the cough etiquette. If you have a symptom, any flu symptom, you should wear a mask to go see a doctor. ● School children (elementary and junior high) will be subject to School Health and Safety Act which prohibits them going to school if they have flu. Guardians must consult doctors about when they can go back to school. ● Contact your local Health and Welfare Office or Maebashi and Takasaki Public Health Centers for more information. -2 Gunma Kenkyo Ryosen Trail Gunma Kenkyo Ryosen Trail means Gunma’s northern prefectural border ridge line trail. It stretches along Gunma’s northern borders with the prefectures of Nagano & Niigata. The trail has a length of 100km. It begins in Minakami-machi and finishes in Toriitoge Mountain in Tsumagoi-mura. Some of the mountains on the trail are ranked among either the top 100 prefectural or top 100 national best mountains. The trail will complete as of March 2018, at which time it will be the country’s only and the longest mountain ridge line trail. If you are an advanced mountain climber, five days is all you need to finish. As you may know, nearly 70 percent of Japan is mountains. In Gunma, mountains occupy 67% of the land. Being a mountenous and landlocked prefecture, Gunma offers its visitors rich natural landscapes throughout the four seasons. The trail is roughly divided into five areas: Tanigawa Area, overlooking the beautiful foothill: -Mikunitoge Area, overlooking the shakunage alpine roses traverse: -Nozoriko-Yokoteyama Area, overlooking Mt. Hachima & Mt. Shirasuna: -Kusatsu-Manza Area, overlooking Yoshigadaira Marsh from Shibutoge Mountain: -Baragi-Kazawa Area, overlooking Mt. Azumaya from south of the ridge line. Here, mountains are often designated as the country’s top 100/200 mountains, and many of them are inactive volcanoes. Where there is a volcano, there is onsen. Gunma’s favorite and some of the country’s most popular onsen resorts are here: Minakami, Shima, Kusatsu, and Manza. Two common features among these spa resorts are abundant onsen waters and onsen qualities of many varieties. You can relax and unwind at one of the hot springs after trekking the Gunma Kenkyo Ryosen Trail, or you can use the onsen to recharge yourself. Gunma’s onsen are your best bet. Mountain climbing is affected by many factors. Weather is one. Also, you are vulnerable to injuries or getting lost in the mountains. To make it a successful mountain climbing, please prepare fully in line with the level of difficulty of the mountain you are going to climb or which season you are in. Here are some of the things you should do to make sure your mountain climbing is safe. You may be required to submit a Mountain-Climbing Registration Form in some areas.

Although on the decline, traffic accidents caused by drunk drivers do not seem to cease. To eradicate drunk driving, it is essential that each driver and each of the passengers in a car must be totally determined to make it go away. As the year-end and the New Year holidays draw near, you will have many opportunities to drink and/or party. This is, of course, when traffic accidents by drunk drivers increase. As you know, not only the driver who caused traffic accidents, passengers in the same car will be punished as well. You are not supposed to 1) let anyone drive your car, knowing that he is going to drink 2) get in a car of which driver is drunk 3) offer drink to someone, knowing that he is going to drive. You could not only be fined or get prison sentence but also have your driver’s license revoked, in which case you cannot get a new license for the next several years. ✯✯✯ Events – Illuminations 2017-2018 ✯✯✯ 27th Int’l Interchange Festival / Int’l Carnival 2017 Takasaki You can enjoy capoeira (a Brazilian dance of African origin that incorporates martial arts movements such as kicks and chops), belly dance, Korean dance & drum performances, and Japanese tea ceremony demonstrations.

A group of pyroclastic cones, including Shiranesan, Ainomine, and Motoshiranesan, which stretch from the north to the south, are located in its highest western area. To the south and east of these cones, andesitic lava flows cover an area of several km from the summit. Further downhill there is a dacitic pyroclastic flow plateau. The SiO2 content of the andesite and dacite is between 53.7 and 64.2 wt %. 3 crater lakes are arranged from northeast to southwest at the summit of the Shiranesan pyroclastic cone. They are named Mizugama, Yugama, and Karegama. All historical eruptions were occurred in the Shiranesan summit area. All recent eruptive activity consists of phreatic explosions. The volcano is prone to producing lahars. The volcano has many hot springs, such as Kusatsu Onsen, and solfatara which generates H2S. 1 (44.

  • The Case of Weaving Districts in the Meiji Japan1 Tomok
    On the Historical Process of the Institutionalizing Technical Education: The Case of Weaving Districts in the Meiji Japan1 Tomoko Hashino2 <Abstract> This paper explores the process of the institutionalizing technical education in modern Japan. In particular, this research attempts to elucidate why people in local weaving districts needed such educational institutions and how it is related with the introduction of western technology. This process is found to be much different from the government-led introduction of modern industries through establishment of technical high schools and universities to nurture engineers. In the case of traditional Japanese weaving districts, it was trade associations that voluntarily and actively established institutes for training, which were later supported by prefectural governments and the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce and finally institutionalized as public technical schools by the Ministry of Education. 1 The author is grateful Mataji Umemura and Hoshimi Uchida for fulfilling discussions in the early stages of this research. A previous version of this research benefited from a lot of comments of participants at the Kinki-Section of Socio-Economic Society, the national conference of Socio-Economic History Society and in a seminar at the Institute for Monetary and Economic Studies, Bank of Japan. She also appreciates the valuable comments and suggestions by Keijiro Otsuka in the process of revising this paper.
