アスパルテーム
アスパルテームは人工甘味料である。
まぁ食べ物や飲み物に甘さを加えるための調味料のようなもの。
砂糖の約200倍の甘さをもつといわれていて、少量で食べ物に「甘味」を与えることができるとされています。
そのうえなんとカロリー0。どういう仕組みかは不明ですが、砂糖をとれるのにダイエットになるとかなんとか。
なんかめちゃくちゃ大発見で未来的なものじゃないーと思いがちですが、
そんなうまい話はないわけで、
このアスパルテーム、体に大きな影響を与えてしまうことが分かっています。
というか研究者たちはよくそういっているようです。

CCNP Switch Passed!
My revenge was served cold well today after I finally passed CCNP switch on my second try!
Let me just say "Try as many practice exams as possible!"
Test is a test after all, what we are tested is based on what examiner wants us to know. And not all the knowledge we are required to know for the test is useful on actual operations. So getting used to as many as practice exams as possible will help you pass the test though it may not be helping you on your actual operation.
Below are free practice exam methods I have used for CCNP switch and found them useful.
a. Certprepare
http://www.certprepare.com/
Amazing. It has lots of practice sims and example questions.
b. GNS3 Labs | CCNP | CCNA Labs
http://commonerrors.blogspot.jp/search/label/CCNP%20labs
If you become excited looking through this web page, I suppose you are ready to go.
This page provides you with lots of lab questions.
c. Ping-T
http://ping-t.com/
If you are Japanese and network engineer, I guess you are already familiar with this astonishing page.
Though you need to subscribe and pay a decent amount to fully utilize this amazing page, it can help you get used to the actual test and provides you with questions and detailed descriptions.
Luckily I got a chance to take the test twice, I noticed most of the questions on the test are fixed. I mean they gave me the same lab questions and the same simulations as the first one on my second try. Here is the list.
1. VLAN, STP, VTP, Etherchannel Sim
2. dot1x and VACL Sim
3. VLAN routing and EIGRP
4. HSRP multiple questions Sim
If you are new to switch area or have forgot most of the things you had learned on CCNA (my case), I recommend to start up from watching the video of our teacher Eli, "Understanding Switches".

CCNP Switch - Failed
I will not forgive you cisco...
If you have time inventing new routers and switches, give some focuses on revising your garbage test and learn some grammars. Anyway, simply put I failed at CCNP Switch today, and this article features good links on CCNP Switch.
Surprisingly some of them were actual questions I faced on the test.

5 things you need to know about Ehou maki
Ehou Maki (恵方巻き) is a type of sushi roll whose name means "lucky direction roll". As a Japanese, it's really natural for us to buy one when it gets February 3rd (or some pre-order it at a shop beforehand). We can buy it everywhere like a supermarket, convenience store or even at a place like kiosk! But hey, all humans may wonder, why do we eat it? Who the hell decide "the lucky direction?" Why sushi roll, not sandwich? and why on this date when we call Setsu-bun(節分)? Let's find out...
1. Who the hell decide “the lucky
direction?”
This “lucky direction” is determined
based on where “the god of happiness” called Toshitoku-jin(歳徳神) is located and it changes every year. Huh so, who can see which
direction this god of happiness is? – It’s based on what we call Oriental
Zodiac.
乙か庚の年(when the last number of year is 0 or
5)→庚の方位(west-southwest)
丙か辛の年(when the last number of year is 1 or
6)→丙の方位(south-southeast)
丁か壬の年(when the last number of year is 2 or
7)→壬の方位(north-northwest)
戊か癸の年(when the last number of year is 3 or
8)→丙の方位(south-southeast)
甲か己の年(when the last number of year is 4 or
9)→甲の方位(east-northeast)
So it’s not like the god changes from
places to places, the direction is rather “calculated” based on the old fortune
telling kinda system.
2. Why it has to be this thick big sushi
roll?
This seems to be “depends on where we
live” thing. Some eat big thick sushi roll, some eat thin sushi roll. However,
the reason why it has to be sushi roll is because they need to put some
ingredients inside something. You must have noticed there are lots of
ingredients rolled up inside it and they all are believed to bring lucks. Since
it sounds nicer to have all lucks “at one bite,” they put all ingredients
together inside a sushi roll and MUNCH MUNCH!
3. Why we are not allowed to talk while
eating it?
Not to allow your happiness to go away
from your body. So it’s simple, if you want to have more happiness then shut up
and eat it. That is what they say at least.
4. When did we start doing this kind of non-sense?
The origin of this Ehou-maki roll can be
tracked back to Edo-period when people in a town in Osaka started eating a
sushi roll with 7 ingredients which represent all Seven Deities of Good Fortune(七福神). And they were eating it by heading the “happy direction” where
the god of happiness is. Everything is FOR GOOD LUCK.
However, the main reason why we do eat this roll these days is all
thanks to a marketing policy of 7/11(convenience store). It’s said to have become
popular after a convenience store in Hiroshima started selling the lucky direction
roll in 1989.
5. Why on February 3rd?
You will see the reason if you know the
meaning of this “Setsubun”(節分) thing. It
literally means "seasonal division." And the new season was felt to
be a time when the spirit world became close to the physical world. Therefore
there are lots of things have been done on the day before the season to be
changed into another one.

STAP (stimulus-triggered acquisition of pluripotency) cells
Stem cells can transform into any tissue and are already being trialed for
healing the eye, heart and brain. The latest development, published in the
journal Nature, could make the technology cheaper, faster and safer.
The human body is built of a lot of kinds of cells, each with a
specific role - nerve cell, liver cell, muscle cell – and for each cell, the
role is determined and cannot be changed. However, stem cells can become any other
type of cell, and they have become a major field of research in medicine for
their potential to regenerate the body.
So what makes a heart cell different from a liver cell? The two
cells express different sets of genes. Likewise, a stem cell turns on
specific sets of genes to differentiate into another cell. For this reason,
it has been thought to be impossible to reprogram a differentiated cell and
revert it back to a stem cell.
However, in January 2014, a female Japanese researcher made it happen.
[Who
discovered?]
Dr Haruko Obokata, a 30-yrs-old woman researcher from the Riken
Centre for Developmental Biology in Japan.
Dr Haruko Obokata explains how she nearly gave up on the project when fellow researchers didn't believe what she had found http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-25917270 |
[How is it different from older discoveries?]
In making STAP cells, body cells can "be reset" or reverted back to a stem cell just by applying strong stimuli. Such transformation is known to occur in plants, but the team’s researchers have shown that animal cells possess the same ability.
In her research, Dr Haruko Obokata let body cells pass through a very narrow pipe. And she miraculously discovered that some body cells have turned into stem-cell-like-state.
That was when she thought cells can be reverted back to a stem cell by applying stimuli somehow. So she soaked some cells in acid and half-killed them in order to apply some stimuli. Then 20-30mins later, cells have changed and reset.
http://the-japan-news.com/news/article/0000987502 |
In their previous researches, they all reprogrammed body cell into stem cell by using something else. For example, Yamanaka’s IPS cell’s, they used a virus to deliver four stem cell factors into skin cells, causing the differentiated stem cells to go into an embryonic-stem-cell-like state. This simply means, we put something from outer world into body cell and created a system to “reset the cell.”
But in STAP cells’ case, we put body cells into an environment where these body cells get stressed. Then, these stressed body cells lose its function as a body cell and turns back into a state of stem cell. In this case, we force body cell to “reset itself.”
[How
we can utilize this technology]
Once scientists can create differentiated cells from stem cells,
then there are many possibilities for their use, such as drug testing and
cell-based therapies. Added in the future...

STAP cell discovery overturns common beliefs in biology
