Among the ancient and influential religions of the world, there is none as strict as Judaism for classifying foods as fir or unfit to eat. Foods which meet these standards are considered kosher-that is, fit or proper. For example, any animal which has cloven hooves and chews its cud is kosher. It is forbidden to eat pig, camel or rabbit because they lack one of these two qualifications. Only fish with fins and scales may be eaten, which means that octopus, squid, shrimp, crab, and catfish are forbidden by dietary laws. Chicken and turkey may be eaten. There is a special law that forbids eating meat, including poultry, and milk products together. Utensils used for meat may not be used for diary produced and vice versa.
There is also a ritual method of killing animals that may be eaten. Animals that die of disease or that are found dead may not be eaten. A variety of rules must be observed in the slaughterhouse. A slaughterer has special qualifications and training, and may only use a very sharp knife in order to minimize the animal's suffering. Following the slaughter, the meat must be rinsed in water to remove all traces of blood.
To eat a rare steak with traces of blood is out of the question. Orthodox Jewish butchers do not keep hindquarters of meat in their shops. The hindquarters are sold to nonkosher butchers because Jews are forbidden to eat the sciatic nerve and the surrounding blood vessels. Nowadays, while many Jews condnue to refrain from eating pork and other traditionally forbidden foods, they will enjoy trying just about anything else. Why does the Old Testament go into dietary laws in such detail? ltls only a guess, but when the ancient Hebrews left their Egyptian bondage to wander for years in the desert, suffering all sorts of hardships, these strict rules were vital to promoting both hygiene and a sense of solidarity among the people.
If your plane arrives in Israel on a Friday evening and you want a meal, you're out of luck. The Jewisll day of rest begins at sunset on Friday and runs until sunset on Saturday. During that time, restaurants are closed. You have to go to the
Palestinian section for a meal. The Arabs follow Islam, and their day of rest ends on Friday. And, of course, the Christian day of rest is a day later than that of the Jews,
on Sunday

Yet another key factor in those turbulent times was that, once the Tokugawa Shogunate had been overthrown and the Emperor (Meiji) had been restored to power in 1868, those leaders realized that administrative reforms had to be at their top of priority.
Consequently, a Cabinet consisting of 11 departments was established where there had been an unmanageable and out-of-date system of court administration; Western codes of civil and penal law were adopted; and, most importantly, local governments were totally revamped and reconstituted along modern lines.
New political parties representing various ideologies and interests were also formed, such as Jiyuto (the Liberal Party) in 1881 and Kaishinto (the Reform Party) in 1882. An Imperial decree in 1889 proclaimed constitutional government to be the law of the land.
Please note the dates — 1868 and 1889: It took more than two decades for Japan to establish and entrench its modern nation state in the form of democratic institutions. Between the beginning of Meiji and that time, the country was nearly wracked by armed rebellions, violent arguments and numerous clashes of vested interests.
Again, a lesson for today: A couple of decades of confusion is very common during reformation. It is not only Japan that is suffering through this seemingly dull nightmare. The United States, Russia and some countries in Europe are going through their own “lost years.” But nothing is truly lost if it leads to something better.

Does this strike a chord with any Westerners living in Japan? Or Japanese when interacting with Westerners?
Certainly, I can understand it. There are many occasions when expressions and emotions may be misunderstood, and this research might provide part of an explanation as to why that happens so frequently.
Jack and colleagues investigated cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces. They then put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral.
The faces were standardized according to something called the Facial Action Coding System (FACS). This sets each expression as displaying a specific combination of facial muscles typically associated with each feeling of emotion. The researchers then compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye-movement strategies.
It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes, and made significantly more errors than Westerners did. In other words, while Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and the mouth less.
And interestingly, this cultural difference extends to cyberspace.
Emoticons — text marks used to convey facial expressions of the writer’s mood — are different in Japan and the West.
In the West, the commonest emoticons for “happy” and “sad” use the mouth to convey the emotion, so we have :) and :(
In Japan, however, the eyes are used to convey the emotions, so ^.^ is commonly used for happy and ;-; for sad.
“Emoticons are used to convey different emotions in cyberspace as they are the iconic representation of facial expressions,” Jack said. “Interestingly, there are clear cultural differences in the formations of these icons.”
In summary, the researchers say, there are real perceptual differences between Western Caucasian and East Asian people. However, I doubt whether that applies to Caucasians who have grown up in Japan, or Japanese who have grown up in America, for example. It’s all about the culture you grow up in — your so-called nurture rather than nature.
But, without overgeneralizing, it does help us understand how attempts to communicate emotions sometimes get lost in translation.

In 1684,through computations by Picard,the earth's exact circumference was determined for the first time .Using the French astronomer's data,Newton applied the principle of gravitation to prove that the power which guides the moon around the earth and the planets around the sun is the force of gravity. The force varies directly with the mass of the attracted bodies and inversely as the square of their distances. Newton went on to show that this account for the elliptical orbits of the planets. The pull of graviy kept the moon and planets in their paths,balancing the centrifugal forces of their motions.
Again,Newton failed to reveal his phenomenal discovery of nature's greatest secret. As it happened,however,other scientists were engaged in a search for a solution of the same problem. Several astronomer had suggested that the planets were bound to the sun by the force of gravity. Among these was Robert Hooke,Newton's severest and most persistent critic.But none of the theorists had been able to offer mathematical proof.By now Newton had won considerable reputation as a mathematician,and he was visited at Cambridge by the astoronomer Edmund Halley who requested his help.When Halley atated the problem,he learned that it had been solved two years before by Newton .Further,Newton had worked out the principal laws of motion of bodies moving under the force of gravity.Charatecteristically,through,Newton had no intention of publishing his findings.

We do indeed have the AAA in 3 colours: black, plum and purple. I don't think that there are many pieces left of the black colour. If you want any I can put away for you what I have here. The purses BBB are not available and frankly I am not sure when will they be coming back. When they do come back I will let you know.
Also, I really do not know what other pieces did you speak to Becki about, so I would need you to let me know all the styles that you are interested in.
I can see that you are registered on our website but I don't think you have used it as your account was not active. I have activated it for you now. You can log in with your email 'CCCC..' and password would have been sent to you right after your registration. If you have troubles logging in please let me know and I will give you a new password.
I am also awaiting a quote from DDD. However, they tell me that they cannot give me an accurate quote without the correct dimensions of boxes or the correct weight. Therefore, I can only give you a rough estimate at the moment and find out properly once you have placed an order and once all the boxes have been packed.
(1)Today we refer to the medieval European era as the "Dark Ages", even though, as it turns out, it was a much more "enlightened" period of science than we commonly think. Indeed, significant discoveries in physics, chemistory, and astronomy were made by medieval scholars, (1) considerable resistance to their efforts by the religious oligarchy of the era.
(1) 1.whereas 2.although 3.as 4. despite
(2)But in one area of medieval knowledge, the expression "Dark Ages" may be appropriate, after all. Until the early thirteeth century, little progress had been made in mathematics - not because of any opposition from religious authorities, and certainly not for any lack of talent, but because such progress was likely delayed by by the awkward and inefficient numeration system in use at time - the Roman numeral one - which was based on several alphabet letters, each with a specific numerical value : I = one ; V = five ; X = ten ; L = fifty ; C = one hundred ; M = one thousand. To understand how awkward that system was, consider how the numeral " two thousand two hundred fifty-three" was put together : MMCCLIII= two thousand two hundred fifty-three.
(3)Now cpmpare the Roman numeral with the one we use today : 2253=two thousand two hundred fifty-three. Ours is clearly much easier to read, because the principle that is used to construct it is simple - the position of each digit in the numeral indicates its value as a power of ten. This is (3) our system is called "decimal" (from the Latin word decem, "ten"). Below is how the decimal numeral 2253 is read - note that "one thousand" can be represented by 10^3
(because 10^3=10×10×10=1000),"one hundred" by 10^2 (because 10^2=10×10=100),"ten" by 10^1, and "one" by 10^0.

赤本に解答のない英文和訳問題について。 現在高校三年生の受験生の者です。国立大学に推薦入試で受験するのですが、若干専門的な学部からか赤本（推薦用）に解答例がありません……他にも勉強にと掲載されている他学部の問題にも取り組むのですが、解答例があったりなかったりとまちまちで非常に困っています。
夏休みですので学校に行く機会も少なく（以前先生にお願いしたのですが時期が悪くそんな暇はないと断られてしまいました。）また塾にも通っていない為聞く当てがありません。そこで皆さんのお力をお借りできればと思います。恐らく英文自体はそこまで複雑ではないのですが、自分の解答と照らし合わせる必要があるので和訳をお教え頂きたいです。
(1)Architect sought to design building and spaces that incorporated physical accessibility features such as wheel chair ramps,cube cuts,and automatic doors into their designs. They discovered that by considering and integrating a wide range of needs early in the design stage,they produced universally designed products that are often easier to use and benefit people with and without disabilities.
(2)Universal design in education means providing information in a variety or formats because multisensory method of receiving and expressing information can make curricula more accessible for students with and without disabilities.
Further, universal design means delivering instruction using a variety of teaching methods. Technology provides the capacity to easily change information from one format to another.
(3)The problem is designed to guarantee a minimum level of income for jobless, but an increasing number of people are turning to the program despite being able to work.

It would seem that bright German or French people who have good English as well as their own language are really far better off and that the British, at any rate, are starting to realize.
As I sit in front of my radio listening to music that is being broadcast from far distant station, I cannot help thinking of instuments called transmitters which make the waves that travel through space at a wonderful speed and bring voices of far away musicians to my ears.

Throughout Western history, Women have borrowed men's clothing.
Woman wear pants, ties, and even men's suits. However, men have rarely worn women's clothing. One of the strongest taboos is against men wearing skirts. Skirts are considered inappropriate for men. A new exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art called "Bravehearts :Men in skirts" looks at this qustion.
David Thorndike, sociologist at the Modern Social Research Institute says, "Men think if they wear a skirt, they will look feminine. That is absurd. Roman gladiators were very masculine and they wore skirts." He
continues, "At one time, only men wore pants. However, today pants are unisex clothes. They are appropriate for both men and women. Women wear them all the time. If a man wants to wear masculine, he should put on a real Scottish kilt"
The exhibit has examples of men's skirts in history. In addition, there are a number of skirts from well-known clothing designers. There is even a photograph of movie star Brad Pitt in a skirt. One male visitor said, "That skirt looks really comfortable. If Brad Pitt can wear it, why can't I?"
The exhibit will continue through February 8.
When an animal has a toothache, it cannot just go to the dentist's office like people do.
Fortunately, there is someone who can help.Dr.sarah de sanz is a people dentist' most of the time.
She most often treats human patients in her dental office in the san Francisco area. However ,sometimes she must treat other patients who cannot come to her office-or even fit into a dentist's chair! What kind of patients are these?They are animals! Dr.de sanz is a part-time zoo dentist.
Dr.de sanz and her father, Dr.paul Brown, who is also a dentist, work as a team in the san Francisco area.They do checkups, fillings,and other dental work on any animal that needs them.
Dr. de sanz explains how it all starated.“My dad and I started working on animals together when I was in dental school,”she says.“He's great to work with, he's very patient, and we really enjoy working together.”
Dr. de sanz's father says that he is hapy that she became a dentist.“I'm thrilled that Sarah has become a dentist!”he says. Dr. Brown then continues to talk about what they do, “I'm happy. I think it's a wonderful job,”he says.
In order to help people better understand the issue, Dr.Metcalf describes the lifestyle of many woman in parts of Africa.“They have to walk about two to three miles or so to collect wood,”he says. And then they have to tend the fire. And the smoke from that fire, it burns their eyes and chokes their lungs.”
According to the World Health Organization, this indoor pollution has been linked to the deaths of two milion woman and children each year.With help from other human aid groups, solar cookers International has already trained more than 22,000 families.They have taught these families how to cook their traditional foods with the sun.
But does solar cooking really work? Does it really cook food well? Solar cookers International thinks so! The group organizes workshops on cooking with solar cookers. In these Workshop, the woman learn how to set up and use the solar cooking equipment.They also get a chance to actually prepare foods on the cookers. The woman make a wide range of dishes including soups, rice, potatoes, and bread.

After a day of preparing the foods, the users are finally able to taste their ‘solar-powered food.’
“Oh, this is good,”says one woman as she tries the food from a workshop.
“It's very good,”she continues.“The consistency is good; the texture is fine.”
She then concludes with a smile, “No problem!”
The fact that the solar cooker looks just like a cardboard box surprises many of the woman.
One of the cooks says, “We're all amazed that a cardboard box can cook.”
After each workshop, attendees are given their own portable solar‘cook kits’to take home.
They are then expected to use the kits to help them with their daily tasks.
The simple cookers cost about five dollars, last almost two years, and work exactly like the more costly kits.
