According to “Boruto” Chapter 41 spoilers from Otakukart, fans do not have to wait for long as it’s likely going to happen in the upcoming chapter. Chapter 40 is very exciting and action-packed but it felt like it’s just a set-up chapter on what’s to come, according to the publication. This means that fans will likely find “Boruto” Chapter 41 to be much better when arrives next month. The recent chapter is likely setting-up for Boruto, Kawaki, Sarada and Mitsuki’s counterattack on Boro. It’s exciting to see what type of strategy the team might come up against Boro, who seemed impervious to their previous attacks. However, Otakukart is not betting that the four children will be able to thoroughly defeat a seasoned and powerful fighter like Boro. A more likely scenario is that the team might engage Boro long enough for reinforcements to arrive. It’s also possible that they might surprise Boro with a totally unexpected combo attack which would result in the Kara member’s temporary retreat. “Boruto” Chapter 41 release date is on December 20, 2019.

Neuromuscular Disorders and Peripheral Neuropathies Volume 10 - 2019 | https://doi.org/10.3389/fneur.2019.00681 Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by progressive muscle weakness and myotonia along with multiple organ system involvements mainly due to respiratory or cardiac abnormalities Chronic respiratory impairment is associated with increased morbidity in DM1 The main ventilatory dysfunction etiology in DM1 is complex consisting of both peripheral respiratory dysfunction and central respiratory drive dysfunction as well as upper airway muscle dysfunction leading to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) and aspiration Advancements in early diagnosis of DM1 and management with non-invasive therapeutic tools have improved life expectancy for DM1 patients a thin elder brother and an obese younger sister with visceral fat accumulation Although neither had voluntary symptoms related to respiratory dysfunction their apnea-hypopnea indices revealed severe SAS and subsequent arterial blood gases studies showed hypercapnia as well as hypoxia suggesting central nervous system involvement with peripheral respiratory dysfunction Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation during sleep was started following pulmonary assessment Respiratory function should be assessed in DM1 patients because respiratory muscle weakness occurs in a high percentage of these patients and will shorten their lives an older brother and a younger sister with severe SAS accompanied by hypercapnia suggesting that both probably had central respiratory dysfunction Laboratory values and arterial blood gas of Case 1 Appearance (A,B) and visceral fat area on CT of the patients (C,D) Figure 2. Southern blot analysis of the patients' genomic DNA samples digested with EcoRI (A) or BglI (B) and then probed with the BamHI fragment containing the DMPK CTG repeat region. (A) Lane 1, genomic DNA from a control individual with an EcoRI polymorphism (10) in one allele Summary of respiratory function examinations of Case 1 and Case 2 These two siblings have been followed at outpatient care by the same pulmonologist and there has been no apparent worsening of symptoms since starting NPPV therapy The ABG of the brother revealed slight elevation of PaCO2 Because the sister's arteries are very thin making it difficult for us to determine her ABG spirometry was performed 3 months after initiating NPPV therapy and revealed almost no interval changes as compared to the baseline data before starting NPPV and FEV1% (Gaensler index; FEV1/FVC) 101.8% As to other complications, the brother showed negative results on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), echocardiography, abdominal ultrasound and, except for the diabetes, on endocrinologic examinations (8). The sister underwent brain MRI which showed localized white matter hyperintense lesions in the right temporal lobe, a common finding in DM1 (19), which may have accounted for her hypoventilation (5) and endocrinological examinations yielded essentially normal results except for cataracts and IGT Because we could not examine the causes of chronic respiratory insufficiency of our patients in detail we can rule out neither respiratory muscle weakness nor CNS involvement as potential causes of respiratory insufficiency along with other coexisting sleep breathing disorders we consider the main cause to be DM1 in our cases based on the results of whole body screening examinations showing no signs of coexisting sleep breathing disorders such as obstructive pulmonary diseases emphysematous lung lesions or intestinal lesions suggestive of restrictive lung diseases The development of chronic, progressive respiratory failure can have prognostic effects, particularly in terms of survival, in many neuromuscular diseases including DM1. Early detection of respiratory dysfunction in addition to early diagnosis of DM1 is crucial. Therapeutic management employing non-invasive therapeutic tools such as NPPV may increase the life expectancies of DM1 patients (3, 4) Respiratory system function should be examined in DM1 patients, even those with minimal or no symptoms, because respiratory muscle weakness occurs in a high percentage of DM1 patients, and chronic respiratory failure may develop (5, 22, 23) All datasets generated and analyzed for this study are included in the manuscript and/or the supplementary files Both subjects gave written informed consent for publication of the information and images related to this case report As this is a case report without experimental intervention no formal research ethics approval was required and KM substantially contributed to the acquisition and MF drafted the manuscript or revised it critically for important intellectual content TNa and YS provided approval for publication of the content All of the authors agreed to be accountable for all aspects of this study in ensuring that questions related to the accuracy or integrity of any part of the work are appropriately investigated and resolved The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest non-invasive positive pressure ventilation; SAS Myotonic dystrophies: an update on clinical aspects Lack of correlation between the ventilatory response to co2 and lung function impairment in myotonic dystrophy patients: evidence for a dysregulation at central level Respiratory dysfunction in myotonic dystrophy type 1: a systematic review Prevalence and predictor factors of respiratory impairment in a large cohort of patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (dm1): a retrospective 207th enmc workshop on chronic respiratory insufficiency in myotonic dystrophies: management and implications for research Obstructive sleep apnea and the metabolic syndrome: the road to clinically-meaningful phenotyping Sleep apnea is a manifestation of the metabolic syndrome Core clinical phenotypes in myotonic dystrophies Identification and characterization of dm1 patients by a new diagnostic certified assay: neuromuscular and cardiac assessments Direct diagnosis of myotonic dystrophy with a disease-specific DNA marker Examination Committee of Criteria for 'Obesity Disease' in Japan Japan Society for the Study of Obesity New criteria for 'obesity disease' in Japan Google Scholar [definition and the diagnostic standard for metabolic syndrome–committee to evaluate diagnostic standards for metabolic syndrome] Relationship between sleep-disordered breathing and renal dysfunction in acute coronary syndrome Practice parameters for the use of portable monitoring devices in the investigation of suspectedobstructive sleep apnea in adults Long-term cardiovascular outcomes in men with obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea with or without treatment with continuous positive airway pressure: an observational study Diagnosis and management of duchenne muscular dystrophy Genetics correlates with lung function and nocturnal ventilation in myotonic dystrophy Brain involvement in myotonic dystrophy: MRI features and their relationship to clinical and cognitive conditions Metabolic syndrome in patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 Supine changes in lung function correlate with chronic respiratory failure in myotonic dystrophy patients The natural history of congenital myotonic dystrophy: mortality and long term clinical aspects Respiratory involvement in neuromuscular disorders Longitudinal course of lung function in myotonic dystrophy type 1 A 10-year study of mortality in a cohort of patients with myotonic dystrophy Respiratory failure in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis Ishihara H and Fujishiro M (2019) Two Adult Siblings With Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 With Different Phenotypes Presenting With Chronic Respiratory Insufficiency and Sleep Apnea Syndrome Received: 04 April 2019; Accepted: 11 June 2019; Published: 04 July 2019 Copyright © 2019 Kohno, Ogawa, Kushimoto, Tanaka, Ikeda, Nishizawa, Mitsuke, Nakayama, Suzuki, Ishihara and Fujishiro.

(Japanese only) Nagaoka University of Technology (NUT), a UNAI member institution in Japan and the UNAI SDG Hub for Goal 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure has partnered with local authorities in the city of Mitsuke to foster education and awareness of sustainable development among primary school children a small city located in Niigata Prefecture is a municipality that has been actively engaged in the advancement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and as part of an initiative of the Japanese government to foster collaboration with local authorities was selected as an “SDGs Future City” by the Japanese Prime Minister Cabinet Office in 2019 The selection was in recognition of the city’s environmentally friendly urban development efforts and mainstreaming the SDGs in public policies NUT developed the joint project with the city to promote the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) among the city’s elementary school students to contribute to the understanding of global challenges The goal is to have students share the information they’ve learned to their families and the community at large The project includes lessons to teach about the SDGs through hands on activities and with the assistance of information and communications technologies such as educational software adapted to children allowing the teaching of complex issues from a realistic yet fun perspective university students informally exchange ideas and information about the 2030 Agenda with elementary school students the first time many of the children have heard about the SDGs the university participated in the Wakuwaku Experience Study in 2019 an activity held by local authorities to increase interest in sustainability issues and enhance the enjoyment and motivation of students to learn The university has also implemented open classes and lectures for parents and teachers in the participating elementary schools will use the results of this project to update curriculum to incorporate sustainability themes and help root the 2030 Agenda throughout society from school age children onward NUT is implementing and carrying out this initiative with the participation of other local schools based on the recent experiences and feedback received from children You can learn more about the UNAI SDG Hubs here nendo have designed an audio speaker made of ceramic for the take action foundation the ‘ceramic speakers’ is a contribution to the revalue nippon project launched by former japanese footballer nakata hidetoshi to revitalize the traditional crafts in japan each of whom selected one ceramicist and one designer/ artist to collaborate on one piece director of the 21st century museum of contemporary art in kanazawa invited nendo to collaborate with mitsuke masagasu a kanazawa-based potter whose work springs from the traditions of the local kutani ware they decided to compliment the sophisticated elaborate lines of mitsuke’s red-glaze designs by fusing them with the infinite sophistication of digital manufacturing techniques to create a set of high-end audio speakers in 1mm thick ceramic substrate ceramic substrate has a high heat resistance so is often used for LED bulbs and other heat-emitting internal components and rarely exposed to human eyes its computer-controlled manufacture involves shaving thin slices from thicker ceramic slabs fixing them with mercury vapour and mounting all components with a robot arm; human hands touch no part of the process nendo hoped that adding mitsuke’s red patterns to the process would disrupt it entirely allowing a new form of expression to emerge its function-optimized surface takes on a new decorative role this reminds us both of the limits of the human hand providing a glimpse into the future of craft AXOR presents three bathroom concepts that are not merely places of function but destinations in themselves — sanctuaries of style Tokyo Olympic fans will have to find scarce tickets and pay the price Then there's the quandary of landing a hotel room with rates that are being inflated due to unprecedented demand And the summer heat and humidity will be off-putting for some Then there's one more hurdle: getting around or even finding a tiny space to stand on Tokyo's famously efficient but over-stressed rail system Japanese professor Azuma Taguchi at Chuo University has researched Tokyo's system for years and says it's already running at double its capacity and the Olympic crunch could push it to the breaking point "When peak capacity is twice or three times above normal it's possible some people could be killed," Taguchi told The Associated Press His computer simulation predicts that the biggest wave of Olympic spectators will collide with work commuters at popular transfer stations during the morning rush hour while small stations closest to venues will be overwhelmed newcomers carrying luggage aboard subway cars and struggling to maneuver off the train and through crowded stations Tokyo transport officials characterize train cars at 200% capacity as giving passengers just enough space to read a magazine This probably represents a normal commuting weekday in Tokyo Taguchi's study predicts 15 stations will experience greater than 200% capacity with several reaching nearly 400% at their peak Since Tokyo last hosted the Summer Olympics in 1964 or "pushers," to pack commuters into rush hour cars— often wearing white gloves Tokyo's Olympic organizing committee question Taguchi's dire predictions They acknowledge the railways will be packed with 800,000 added passengers daily They also anticipate that Tokyo expressway congestion will double the committee wants to launch a smartphone app and use boats and robot-assisted technology to help fans and commuters get around authorities are testing special highway lanes and altering the city's transit flow Concerns about transportation are nothing new at the Olympics and crowds are often overestimated and subsequently managed knowing it's a bad time to visit with prices soaring That happened in 2008 in Beijing and again three years ago in Rio de Janeiro "Living in Tokyo we experience this 100% We know how to navigate the stations at these times," said Katsuhisa Saito the head of transport strategy for Tokyo's organizers "The main concern is when foreigners attend these events and use the stations They might not know how to deal with this." Organizers hope to bring the level of congestion in subway cars down to between 150-180% Taguchi and organizers agree on one thing: keeping Japanese workers at home during the Olympics could go a long way toward solving the problems Organizers are asking companies in Tokyo to encourage their employees to work from home during the Olympics They say more than 2,000 companies have agreed to participate Tokyo University professor Katsuhiro Nishinari is working with the organizing committee an expert in what he calls "jam-ology" — the study of crowd behavior "We're used to having one game per day at the stadium but at the Olympics we have a tight schedule and we have 3-4 games in one day," he said "We have to exchange the audience two or three times That's where we don't have experience." Another major challenge will be convincing a famously industrious workforce to avoid the commute — or the office altogether — for two weeks next summer "We're explaining to all the companies and the media asking people not to work during those two weeks," Nishinari said More AP sports: https://apnews.com/apf-sports and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports but it’s also a favorite among dieters looking to slim down we stopped by Protein Café “Promarl,” which just opened its doors on July 3rd We took this opportunity to try out their latest protein options available on the menu.This Protein Manufacturer-run Café Is Now OpenPromarl opened in front of Akasaka-mitsuke Station The café is directly managed by a protein manufacturer operated by REDAS Corporation a company that’s in the business of producing protein The café offers customers a varied lineup of menu items that are made with domestic Japanese-made protein and other ingredients You’ll find the café’ situated on the second floor and attached to that same building you’ll find a workout studio and much more cherry blossom season is just around the corner Minato City—where modern elegance meets rich historical charm—is home to some of Tokyo’s most iconic hanami (flower viewing) spots Tokyo officially announced the start of the cherry blossom season on March 24 operates approximately 2,800 offices across Japan with around 60,000 delivery drivers providing services primarily through their TA-Q-BIN delivery network who crisscross cities transporting packages for both individu.. businesses in the Shiba district of Minato-ku with more than a century of history came together to form the "Shiba Centennial Society."

intuitively through our designs My five most wanted list follows this theme revealing the “!” between things I’d always wanted a Chihuahua or a pug so I decided to get a cross between the two – he turned four this year I like that when he stands next to a pug he looks like a Chihuahua and when he stands next to a Chihuahua he looks like a pug Since collaborating with the ceramicist on a project in 2010 Although he has an extremely precise painting technique I can see the warm feeling of human process in his work The contrast between these two aspects intrigues me He is part of a new generation of craftsman in the Japanese tradition I am fascinated by the way the face changes by the perpetual movement of the hands I find designing with this movement really interesting and I think that in future I want to find a new way of expressing or interpreting the space between different times I often eat sweet things between meetings at our office but one is that we can only eat three sweets a day I have a few favourite sweet and cake shops in every city and Stohrer is the best – although I am seriously worried I will die of diabetes People have been talking about how all our surroundings will become digitalised for a long time now we are still stuck between digital and analogue but it might be a symbolic product of the situation Moments that make our days interesting and

ABOVE and BELOW: Process diagrams showing the steps with which the ELVESS machine creates OLED displays Earlier this December it was tipped that Japan Display was investing in OLED in a big way If they're unable to buy manufacturing machines to make screens it becomes especially difficult to make the displays they're going to make But – and this is a big but – none of this means anything unless manufacturers aren't already prepared to manufacture OLED displays for the iPhone It could also be that Apple's chosen suppliers of OLED displays have already ramped up manufacturing well in advance of the next iPhone They could have been purchasing machines to make OLED displays for years now – there's no indication at this time that Canon Tokki's manufacturing machine has changed significantly in the very recent past Not enough to stop Apple from creating the next iPhone just to wait for a new manufacturing machine from Canon Tokki for their manufacturing line Each spring in the paddy-dotted rice bowl provinces of Japan farmers such as Masaki Nagai gather at their local shrine for an ancient ritual to appeal to the gods for a bountiful harvest After seeing the low price of foreign rice first hand on a recent trip to Taiwan and with Japan under increasing pressure to reduce protection of its agriculture sector they may now pray just that little bit harder Falling rice prices have already put many of his fellow farmers out of business and 56-year-old Nagai fears his fields will be washed away by a flood of cheap imports if Japan bows to calls to scale down its trade barriers and only one-third of the price of the same kind we make here," he lamented exchanging a rueful look with fellow rice farmer Tadao Iwabuchi "And rice made in California is just one-tenth the price of Japanese rice," Iwabuchi added Although Japan's dwindling number of rice farmers are cushioned by whopping import tariffs of up to 778 percent they fear such protectionist measures are unlikely to last Japan has signaled it is prepared to make difficult concessions at this week's WTO talks in Hong Kong While it seems unlikely the rice import tariffs will be scrapped at this month's meeting has said Japan is ready to "accept considerable pains" to help broker a deal In Japan rice prices have slumped by almost one-third over the past decade many farmers of the staple food had been forced to take second jobs to make ends meet The trauma is heartfelt since rice is deeply rooted in Japan's rural culture and the government has a history of protecting its farmers Many Japanese view foreign rice as vastly inferior to the home-grown and there are few complaints about prices in the shops that are several times higher than in many overseas countries full-time farmers are rare in Japan nowadays Just 13 percent of a total of 3.12 million farming households devote themselves entirely to agriculture In Niigata prefecture north of Tokyo where Nagai and Iwabuchi are struggling to eke out a living 75 households of rice farmers with more than 10 hectares of rice paddies remain Iwabuchi has been expanding his own paddies -- not because the profits are pouring in but to try to boost efficiency to better compete with importers "A few years ago I wanted to expand my rice fields to a total of 10 hectares but now I am still worried with 13 hectares because circumstances surrounding us are changing so rapidly," Iwabuchi said They fear such efforts may count for nothing in the face of the vast farm lands of the US and the low labor costs of China and Taiwan "Farmers in the United States have hundreds of hectare rice fields each whereas in Japan even farmers with the largest fields have only about 10 or 20 hectares," Iwabuchi said The farmers' fear is amplified by a sense of betrayal by their political leaders "What frustrates me most is that the Japanese government has not drawn a comprehensive picture of how to make structural reform of the Japanese agriculture," Nagai said was scarce following the end of World War II But as agricultural advances boosted global harvests Japan erected barriers to protect its farmers Until the Uruguay round of trade talks under the WTO's predecessor GATT the Japanese government had repeatedly vowed that "not even a single grain of rice will be imported." Japan had agreed to open the door to a minimum amount of imports it is under pressure to make further concessions in the WTO talks on agricultural trade want a drastic cut in the number of "sensitive products" with special protection as well as the introduction of caps on import tariffs the Japanese government controlled production and prices of rice for decades pressing farmers to reduce planting areas to bring national production down in line with falling consumption many small-sized farmers survived alongside a smaller group of large producers the government turned toward market-oriented rice production policy Now it is trying to limit subsidies to large farmers only For those who have toiled away in the paddies all their life "Most of the local festivals and events are rooted in rice cultivation "There are so many things linked to rice cultivation that bring us together as community members .. collaborative work on cleaning of waterways seasonal festivals and rituals praying for a rich harvest," he said In Niigata prefecture rice-growing households gather at their local shrine in the spring when the shrine priest prays for a bumper season and again in the autumn just before harvesting even prayers may not be enough to save their paddies it was announced that Kenichi Kakutani’s Otona mo Shiranai Yume no Mitsuke Kata: Joshi Kōsei to Mahō no Note book series will get an anime and manga adaptation titled Joshi Kōsei to Mahō no Note (High School Girl & The Magic Notebook) The anime will air in spring 2022 and will also stream on YouTube The anime and manga will take place in Kyoto The anime will also feature a story not told in the original book The Otona mo Shiranai Yume no Mitsuke Kata: Joshi Kōsei to Mahō no Note book is part of the Mahō no Note series The first book was published in July 2020 while the second book shipped on July 16 The first chapter of the five-chapter manga is also available now on the Wakasa Seikatsu website Anime News Network describes the story as: The book tells the story of second-year high school student Yuzuki Shidō who doesn’t know what she wants to do in life and she meets a fairy named “Buruburu-kun” (who is also the mascot of Wakasa Seikatsu) Buruburu-kun teaches Yuzuma how to find her dream and then how to attain it Sources: Mahō no Note website, ANN A group of researchers led by Professor SATO Kosuke and Master Course Student MORITA Karin (Graduate School of Engineering Science Osaka University) and MIKANE Yuji (Kanagawa Archaeology Foundation) developed an automatic joint method for obtaining a fine-tuned integrated whole by matching surface contours of two stones after roughly coordinating two stones through 3D alignment of wedge quarry holes this group succeeded in measuring the huge stones used for the square-shaped stone at the Ote-mon gate and precisely matching the two huge stones in a virtual-reality space this group sterically verified that the Ote-mitsuke stone and the Ote-niban stone were originally a single stone but later were divided into two by using wedge quarry holes This group also developed an automatic joint method for recovering an original stone by combining two split stones in a virtual reality space even though they are fit into a stone wall to retrieve the original stone using 3D measurements with a digital camera this group clarified parts whose surface was chipped and parts recently detached Traces of wedge quarry holes still remain in most stone materials built into stone walls at historical sites such as castles This automatic joint method will lead to the development of artificial intelligence for archaeology capable of discovering pairs of split stones and will clarify stone wall building methods and quarries The results of this study were presented at the 36 th Conference of the Japan Society for Archaeological Information held at Kyushu National Museum on March 26 and March 27 Copyright © The University of Osaka Google Street View is now available for the platforms and concourses of 13 Tokyo Metro Co users can check underground routes at the terminals in advance.googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1499653692894-0'); }); Tokyo Metro is planning to add the new feature to other stations on its network of 179 stations as soon as image recording is done The operator also indicated it would utilize Google Street View for its official smartphone app development Tokyo and Roppongi stations from mid-June until September Nagoya and Kyoto stations first appeared on Google Street View more than 300 stations and airports from Hokkaido to Okinawa have become available on the service Please view the main text area of the page by skipping the main menu.
