- If you forget to buy a copy of this news paper, you can get it by two methods:
- (1) Find an Asahi Shimbun Delivery Center (or ASA) in your neighborhood and special order a copy of the news paper from them. It usually takes them a couple of days to get you a copy of the Japan Times.
- (2) Go to the Japan Times in Shibaura and get a copy of the news paper. See this homepage to find more about the company. This is a faster method, but you have to go to Tamachi. Also, don't forget to call them BEFORE you go there.

- (3) As an "in-class" project, we will make PowerPoint slides for introducing ourselves in our web site. Think of the content of the slides. (Note that we make the slides in our classes. So just think about the content. Don't make the slides at home. OK?) Since we will upload the slides to our web site, however, do not give information that is too personal. For example, it is not a good idea to give your (email) address, telephone number, etc. You will also use at least one picture in your self-introduction slides. Look for a picture you want to use in the slides.
