this is my favourite chair

A chair is a stable, raised surface used to sit on, commonly for use by one person. Chairs are most often supported by four legs and have a back; however, a chair can have three legs (in a triangle shape) or could have a different shape depending on the criteria of the chair specifications. A chair without a back or arm rests is a stool, or when raised up, a bar stool. A chair with arms is an armchair and with folding action and inclining footrest, a recliner. A permanently fixed chair in a train or theater is a seat or airline seat; when riding, it is a saddle and bicycle saddle, and for an automobile, a car seat or infant car seat. With wheels it is a wheelchair and when hung from above, a swing.

Things to do in Canada No. 46: CURLING

October 28th, 2011

curling  (7 of 8)

An island off the coast of Scotland has the prestigious honour of being the single source of every blue hone granite curling stone in the entire world. The team at Cherry Hill have decided to give those rocks a chance to fulfill their dreams of being heaved and swept down a sheet of ice. Last week was our second match in a Wednesday night friendly league that just started at the Kelowna Curling Club. None of the CHC team had curled before, least of which me, who being from Australia hadn’t even seen snow until I was 17 years old. But we are quick learners and have won our first two games now, with great team performances and plenty of laughs. So if you haven’t curled before, get a broom and head down to a curling rink this winter & give it a go. It’s heaps of fun !!

Yama – Syphon

Out of all the cool coffee gadgets to come out of the last few years the most unusual and the most special to look at, is the Syphon. Made famous in Japan, it adds element of magic to a coffee shop experience. They would set up a bottom lit bar & while your wait for your coffee you watch in amazement as the water bubbles up a small glass & then down again with coffee in toe (see this video).

my new syphon  (17 of 44)

because of the filter system it employes, the coffee is clean but fully extracted in what they call “full immersion” and because the extraction time is nothing compared to our French press it has left Caffeine. So if you’re entertaining and want a party trick after dinner and at the same an awesome tasting coffee, there is nothing like the Syphon.

Gake no ue no Ponyo Theme Song

Hiragana Lyrics

ポニョ、ポニョ、ポニョ、さかなのこ
あおい うみから やってきた
ポニョ、ポニョ、ポニョ、ふくらんだ
まんまる おなかの おんなのこ

ペタペタ、ピョンピョン、
あしって いいな かけちゃお
みぎみぎ、ぶんぶん、
おてては いいな、つないじゃお

あのこと はねると こころも おどるよ
ぱくぱく、ちゅぎゅ、ぱくぱく、ちゅぎゅ、
あのこが だいすき

まっかっかの ポニョ、ポニョ、ポニョ、さかなのこ
あおい うみから やってきた
ポニョ、ポニョ、ポニョ、ふくらんだ
まんまる おなかの おんなのこ

Romaji Lyrics

Ponyo Ponyo Ponyo sakana no ko
Aoi umi kara yatte kita
Ponyo Ponyo Ponyo fukurannda
Manmaru onaka no onna no ko
Peta-peta pyon-pyon
Asitte iina kakechao
Migi-migi-bun-bun
Otetewa iina tunaijao

Anoko to haneru to kokoro mo odoruyo
Paku-paku chu-gyu, paku-paku chu-gyu
Anoko ga daisuki

Makkakka no Ponyo Ponyo Ponyo sakana no ko
Aoi umi kara yatte kita
Ponyo Ponyo Ponyo fukurannda
Manmaru onaka no onna no ko

English Lyrics (first draft)

Ponyo Ponyo Ponyo, it’s a fish kid
It came from the blue ocean
Ponyo Ponyo Ponyo,
She is a round bellied girl
Peta-peta pyon-pyon
How nice to have feet! I’ll try to run!
Migi-migi-bun-bun
How nice to have hands! I’ll try to hold hands with!

When I jump with her, my heart dances along
Paku-paku chu-gyu, paku-paku chu-gyu
I love her so much!

Ponyo Ponyo Ponyo, it’s a fish kid in red
It came from the blue ocean
Ponyo Ponyo Ponyo,
She is a round bellied girl
