This blog is hosted by Google. I am actually satisfied with this system because of no ads, no fee, and what's more, its user-friendliness. I have knowledge about how to write codes, but the ability of programming is not required in this system. Everyone is able to make a blog using this content without difficulty.
One disadvantage of this sophisticated system is the absence of a function to upload sound files. You can upload audio contents via YouTube because YouTube handles audio files as a movie, but I do not think that this is a smart solution. Let me inform you, however, that I have succeeded in posting a sound file as it is.
Here is one example of a heart sound, so-called gallop, in a patient with decompensated heart failure.
The way that I used is very simple. All I did was just to write codes, to upload them to another site, and to make a link to it. The program is shown as below.
<script src="https://***/audio.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link href="https://***/audio.css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"></link>
<script>
audiojs.events.ready(function() {
audiojs.createAll();
});
</script>
<audio id="sampleAudio" src="http://***.mp3"></audio>
I would be happy if this codes were practical and informative.

WiFi router
The other day, my house lost the connection to the Internet. All devices including iPad, tablets, and lap-top computers became something useless because they are unable to connect to the Internet using 3G or 4G. Under these circumstances, only smartphones were available.
The WiFi router in my house was likely to be the cause of the trouble. I have tried changing the WiFi's setting, without success. There was no other way but to replace a new router, and I bought one today (i.e., three days after the accident).
Although some struggles were needed to be overcome, the Internet started working again. What a relief. Needless to say, WiFi has become something of a necessity. My three kids said, "Thanks, Dad!" over and over again because they are really into YouTube.
Between you and me, the new WiFi that I bought today has a unique function which allows me to control time available. For example, with my setting, my younger kid uses iPad only 60 minutes per day. This function may be good to avoid wasting time online because it is way much more important for children to do homework or talk to their parents.
However, I am of two minds whether to use this function. Maybe, I would want my kids to get to learn how to use their time wisely through communications with us, although it would take more time.

One of my best days
I am attending an event like commencement. Every attendee seems to have to make a speech in public. Any topic will do. Most of my friends talk about their ambitions, such as launching a new business or moving abroad to research. It won't be long before my turn, but I have not decided what to say. I am gradually getting nervous because I have nothing that would impress other people.
When I get a microphone to speech, I find the place empty aside from a woman. Everyone vanishes for no reason. She is one that I fell in love at first sight but have never asked her out for fear of being turned down. I feel awkward because she is gazing at me.
I do not think that I am an aggressive man in terms of romance, however, I take a chance and say, "The most fantastic thing in my life is I met you, Shouji. I really appreciate it. We had little chance to talk, though." She smiles at me, replying, "me too."
We hold hands and leave the stage together.
Before long, we find a lot of our friends running after us to celebrate.
I went downstairs and found my wife, Shouji, sleeping on the sofa in the living room. I lay down beside her and took her hand. It made her wake up. I told her the dream that I've just had. Staring at me, she gave me a warm smile, which was the same as the smile I saw in my dream.
I was extremely busy at work on that day, but my dream kept me feeling happy.

NEJM image conference
Today, while I was learning about general internal medicine at another hospital, I came up with an excellent idea regarding Matsushita ER lunch conference.
Matsushita ER conference is a meeting where residents and experienced doctors discuss real cases who presented to the emergency room of Matsushita Memorial Hospital for various complains, such as fevers, dyspnea, or loss of consciousness.
Last month, I started this conference on Mondays, then not only on Mondays but also on Wednesdays because of a good response to the resident doctors. It seems like the meeting has been more effective to improve medical skills than I thought it would be.
Recently, I have been thinking of having this conference even on Fridays, i.e., three times a week, but my concern was what should be added, the same style or something new.
According to my new idea, I decided to add a brand-new element, in which residents present NEJM images in Japanese. NEJM images are very informative, short case reports with a few images and a 100- to 200-word explanation, attracting tons of worldwide medical experts including me.
I bet it will turn out fine because it is useful for resident doctors to learn English as well as enhance knowledge in clinical practice.

Matsushita ER Lunch Conference
I have started a new conference called Matsushita ER Lunch Conference; ER means the emergency room of hospitals. Also, I have created the website.
The objective of the conference is to learn clinical skills that would help doctors treat patients in the emergency room. The field of medicine requires experiences in order to provide high-quality medical care. Thus, it is intuitive that sharing experiences is a good way to enhance the ability of each practitioner.
One advantage of the Matsushita ER Lunch Conference is to use spare time effectively. We are able to learn while eating lunch. Another point is that we are allowed to post what you have learned to the website. The post will enable you to catch up with the conference that you did not attend for some reason.
Never too late to learn! I am still learning.
