Garden BBQ
Today I visited my parents for BBQ in their garden.
Hmmm, that was delicious… can you smell it
Holiday
Ahhh… holiday, finally.
My wife is on her way to Japan, visiting her parents, some friends
and a marriage-party.Time for me to let good old times roll…
Try all that cigars that are already waiting for me a long time,
and my expensive bottle of australian red wine that I kept for a
special moment. Bought me that wonderful tub chair
directly at the airport after my wife left me alone back here….
But I guess I’ll find some things to do within those two
weeks, and if it’ll be pure relaxing only.

Vocabulary Trainer ProVoc
I’ve been looking around for some time now to find the
ultimate vocabulary training application on Mac.
Since my focus goes to the ability to train japanese vocabulary,
the range of applications supporting asian characters is rather
small.
My first finding was Kotoba which is specialized on japanese
kanjis, but it’s more or less a vocabulary card type learning
program, as you enter your vocabulary or load an existing one, and
you view one language and guess the other then review the
answer.ProVoc goes much further, as it has real multimedia abilities, like
audio and even video support.
Additionally you can type the answer even in japanese or any other
input style, or just point and click from multiple choices, or just
enjoy a cinematic slideshow of vocabulary.
And for those of you on the road it is even possible to export your
vocabulary to the iPod including audio and exercise wherever you
are.
Statistics freaks may enjoy the historic view of hopefully getting
better vocabulary testing results. It’s also possible to
train only the last wrong answers. In other words….
…ProVoc is simply great !!!!

BeNuts Ska@StuStaCulum
the BeNuts finally arrived at Munichs biggest annual student
festival, the “STUdentenSTAdt spectaCULUM”.
Above video is from one of their biggest hits: Ska Summer Night,
filmed during their concert today.
I have to excuse for the bad quality, but I only had my wifes
camera by the hand, which only does QVGA, with horrible 8kHz mono
8bit sound.
The BeNuts started 12 years ago in munich, and have already managed
to be successful on tour in Madrid, Moscow and the big japanese
cities Tokyo, Osaka…
Check out the BeNuts Homepage, buy a CD there and
further checkout the StuStaCulum website.
