野球 (ヤキュウ) :Batter's up!

Marins Vs. Fukuoka's Softbank Hawks...baseball season time of the year.


that's right...they play ball over here as well. Don't think north america is the only place they play baseball; it's very much the same deal. See for yourself, this was my first time watching a baseball game in japan...first time in a covered stadium.






loupsan et shiruben-san (sylvain) first timers...its not too common in france.




"...these cells consist a little more than a nucleus and a flagellum...up until now the cells could only remain motionless, but now there is enough space for them to move actively..."


"...like a boat propelled by the spiral movements of a single oar at the stern, the small cell, is propelled forwards by the wavy motions of the flagellum at its hinder end...it is attracted by positive chemotaxis towards the egg-cell..."


"...for these delicate creatures, it is a fateful journey fraught with the danger of utter destruction...of the 200 million cells discharged in a single emission, only one survives if fertilisation ensues..."
-potential
life: the unique journey...




well that was it: cheap tickets for fairly good seats, an exciting 12 inning win, topped with a closing fireworks show and an opening of the grand dome: showing off its colors to the cool night, opening it's wings to it's sister "seahawks" hotel...what more can you ask for??
