How do you dispose of your old stuffed animals? ?

I contacted Good Will and others, but they said they would not take them unless they were new

. I feel guilty about throwing them away as garbage.

Please advise.

Wash them and offer them for free at private sales ?

I would give them to my family and relatives if they wanted them.

I've had older women and others, surprisingly, want them.

I purchased a Panasonic Nogami home bakery. I saw information on the internet that transformers are good to buy in the U.S., so I am going to buy one. ? I hear that 3 times the voltage is good, but what about you guys ?
If you know anything about this, please let me know. I would appreciate it if you could let me know. Thank you very much.

waka,

To tell you the truth, I am also an electrician by nature and use a transformer instead of a transformer, but there are some people on this forum who are very aggressive in their opinions, and I was "uncharacteristically" concerned about that. For the time being, I recommended the use of a transformer. Modern home appliance manufacturers design and manufacture their products to meet safety standards that allow them to withstand use in hostile environments by their consumers. I would venture to guess that they test their products to ensure that they will not catch fire even if the power supply voltage fluctuates by up to 30% over a specific period of time.

Furthermore, even in cooking with heat, such as in electric kettles, the structure is now such that heat is obtained by passing a special radio wave through a special metal, and the radio wave is controlled by an electronic circuit that can automatically control the circuit even if the power line voltage changes significantly. Therefore, there will be no problem even if you use a product with a standard AC 100V input at 120V. However, there is always a "just in case" possibility, so please keep that in mind.

Since I am bringing this from Japan, I think I will take the risk and use it as is ! So far I have not seen any postings of people breaking without a transformer, and your advice and Baikinman's theory have convinced me. I am convinced by your advice and Baikinman's theory. Thank you !

Sorry to get technical again, but in the past, electric cookers such as electric kettles used electric line voltage ( 115/120 volts ) in the US directly into a heat exchange material such as nichrome wire to obtain heat output. Today, however, the heat exchange material has been replaced by the "IH ( IH )" method.

https://www.itmedia.co.jp/fav/articles/2012/27/news021.html

This is the technical term for electric line power as mentioned above IH = Induction Heating ( Induction Heating ) converts the power into heat, specifically ( the power of a high frequency ) magnet applied to an iron pot to convert it into heat power. At any rate, the power of heat is obtained in a much safer way, not by mucking around with nichrome wire as in the old days.

So, to return to the main topic, the heat return device can handle large changes in line voltage, and at the same time, the manufacturers of these electric kettles and cookers have designed and endurance tested their products so that they will not be affected by a voltage of 125V or so applied to a Japanese voltage of 100V for a long period of time. I believe that these electric kettles and cookers are designed and tested repeatedly to ensure that they will not be affected even when subjected to voltages of around 125V for long periods of time.

As Mr. Doubokujinman said, as a safety test for products rated 100V, we have confirmed that there is no problem from a safety standpoint even if a voltage change of + -2 ~ 30% is applied to the product. However, the rated voltage in the U.S. is 120V, and it is necessary to consider that the voltage may vary by at least 20% above or below the rated voltage. Therefore, even if there is no problem for a short period of time, using a transformer with 120% of the rated voltage for a long period of time may increase the possibility of malfunctions. Therefore, I recommend the use of a transformer if possible. Hair dryers, futon dryers, etc., which generate a lot of heat, are especially dangerous because the heat generated is about 1 . 5 times higher and the temperature becomes too high. I use a transformer with a capacity of 1500W for futon dryers and microwave ovens. However, most electronic equipment such as TVs and PCs are rated at 100 ~ 230V, so a transformer is not necessary. Since it is difficult to obtain a transformer with a large capacity in the U.S., I order one from Amazon.com in Japan. I am not familiar with the design of IH cookers ( and the latest electric kettles ), so I cannot comment on what happens when a 100V product is used at 120V. However, IH heaters on the tabletop (1000W, 100V) seem to be working fine so far without a transformer. ( The time is so short ? it's a risk when it will fail. )

Is the third vaccination mandate before coming to the US ??

Question

Hello.
I am going to Hawaii in late February to see him.
It was reported on the news the other day that " he will need a third vaccination before going to Hawaii ・ those who have already made reservations do not have to ".
I have not applied for ESTA yet because my flight was cancelled several times.
Last week another flight to Hawaii → Japan was cancelled, so I will book another flight
The days of the week for flights are very limited, so the length of my stay has been forced to change as well.
At this point, only the flight to Japan is booked, but not the return flight and ESTA
Objectively, I am not booked = Do I have to interpret that the third vaccine is required ?
My last adverse reaction was severe. I am not planning to get the vaccination because it did not heal for a long time and my departure date is soon.
In this case, I would like to know if the vaccination is mandate or not.
If anyone knows more about this, please comment.

I was curious so I looked into it.
At this stage, Japan - Hawaii flights are not affected by Safe Travels Hawai'i and
follow US federal rules.
https://hawaiicovid19.com/travel/faqs/

The US CDC website states that booster shots are not a requirement.
"A booster dose is not needed to meet this requirement."
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/noncitizens-US-air-travel.html

In the news here dated 1/19, the Hawaii state government has said that for at least 2 weeks the 3rd week, they say they will not mandate a third intake.
So far, I have not seen any news of a third dose being mandated.
Even if the State of Hawaii mandated the vaccination, it would not be a problem if Safe Travels Hawai'i did not apply to international flights. On the other hand, if the US government changes its standards, I don't think that would be the case.

The one that comes to mind quickly is an authorized dealer repair shop.
While servicing is reliable, I have the impression that the price is higher than a mechanic shop
( I've never actually fixed an air conditioner )

I checked and Lex Brodie's, a mechanic shop, does air conditioning repairs.
https://www.lexbrodies.com/ac-repair

I think there are other maintenance shops that can help.

I think you can get several estimates
in terms of service quality, price, convenience ( proximity, repair time, etc.) I think you can also get several estimates.

The price varies considerably from place to place. It also depends on whether the problem is just gas or not. There is a store on Kapi'olani Street just behind the McHenry Car Wash that fixes car air conditioners. I think they will see if it is a gas problem right away for a small fee on the spot. I forget the name of the store, but they have a sign.

Hello, I'm a newcomer to this site.
I will be returning to Japan in mid-February, and I was wondering if the
antigen test $ 89.99 at NIU in Ala Moana is still valid for entry into Japan?
I will be in quarantine for 6 days at Narita, and I was wondering if there is a place or time where I can drop off my large luggage
or mail it if my family is at the airport while I get my luggage from Narita airport and leave the gate
to wait for the bus to the quarantine facility?
If you have recently returned to Japan, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

I'm returning in December and I'll be at Haneda Airport.
I was told that my luggage is OK if my family comes to the airport and can give it to me right away at the gate too.
But I don't know how long it will take to get the results of the inspection, so I will have to wait.
I was told that home delivery is not allowed.
We called Haneda Airport to confirm beforehand.

In my case, I had a form for home delivery and had already filled it out, so I negotiated with the staff ( and the part-time worker ).
He said no, but I told him it was not on the website.
I told him that it was not written on the website. He said that if a group of about 10 people got together, they would move to another place and we could do it at that time ? I told him that I had already written the form
I kept saying that I would not make him wait and finally he said yes.

I followed him to the delivery place. ( I thought he was going to run away ? )
He said some hotels can deliver, but I don't know where.
In my case, there was no home delivery at the tax university dormitory in Wako.

Everyone had a hard time moving around with large luggage.
I only had a small suitcase for carry-on luggage, so it was easy to move around.
For your information.

stray cat

Problem / Need advice
#1

A stray cat has been living in our backyard for a while now. It is not just one cat, but maybe a kitten that one of them gave birth to has grown up and there are about 5 normal sized cats in total. I don't dislike cats, but I don't want to go near them because I am allergic to them. And I want them out of my backyard somehow. It is hard to clean up their feces and urine. But I don't want to kill them. But I don't want to spend money on it. It may sound cold, but I can't afford to spend money on a cat that has taken up residence on its own. There is a male cat that has recently moved into the back of the house and is probably after the cat that lives there. We are troubled by the sounds of cats in heat ? or males fighting ? at night, which wake us up and disturb our sleep. I don't see them very often during the daytime to see where they are or if they are sleeping ( but I still see them occasionally ) and they are noisy in the evening, at night, and during the night.
I don't want to kill them. I don't want to kill them, but I want them to leave. Please let me know if you know any good way to get rid of them.

It's a bit expensive, but 、、、、
Amazon sells a spray that smells like granulated sugar or something that cats don't like.
If you spray it with a citrus smell that is safe for plants and children, but cats don't like, it may not work once, but
after a few times, the cats seem to stop coming.

Search for Cat Repellent.

But, even if they go elsewhere, it ends up being a solution for your own backyard only, so I think a rescue or something is better for a radical
solution.
