Matt Russo : What does the universe sound like? A musical tour

Matt Russo at TEDxUofT (transcript)
What does the universe sound like? A musical tour
Summary
This is a story I haven't understood completely.
In the first place, I thought that the subject was the universe sound. It means
I didn’t understand that in the title, the verb was “sound” or “like”. Ｈahaha～～

It’s strange that the speaker is an astrophysicist and a musician, isn't it?

He tells us that planetary orbits have the hidden rhythms and harmonies, outer space is not really silence and not lifeless place also, and it produces its own unique melody. Music and astronomy seem to have deep connections, there is geometry in the humming of the strings, and there seems to be music in the spacing of the sphere there. What? What does it mean?

And then he said that he got to the TRAPPIST-1 system that I heard for the first time.
This is an explanatory system discovered last February of 2017. It seems to be seven Earth-sized planets orbiting a star.

I didn't understand what the TRAPPIST-1 is something to hear, however, its sound fascinated us, it’s very beautiful, and it’s enough worth.

No one is creating the pitches or rhythms and it's just brought into the human hearing range.
One tone beats out a rhythm. It's simple and two tones join. Three, four, five, and six tones join. It just only joins but it doesn't create and it's not created. Each sound is simple and just beats out the same pitch. And after all, when seven planets have entered, we can hear a drum for every time two planets align.

This is what the hidden rhythms and harmonies that the planetary orbits have, isn't it?
I feel that it’s like the life of ourselves and consonant is great.

Our planet has had a lot of things that we don't know. From now, Like this TRAPPIST-1 of the resonant chain and K2-138, new things seems to be discovered also.

Words in this story
resonant /adj/ (of sound) deep, clear, and continuing to sound or ring.
consonant /noun/  in agreement or harmony with.
astronomy /noun/ the branch of science that deals with celestial objects, space, and the physical universe as a whole.

Celeste Headlee :10 ways to have a better conversation

Celeste Headlee at TEDxCreativeCoast  (transcript)
10 ways to have a better conversation
Summary
Conversation is the informal exchange of ideas by spoken words, though, you know, our conversation becomes one-sided conversations, an argument, fighting against others, and so on. It’s not  conversation but people don’t listen to each other and they make their decisions based on what they already believe.

This time, the speaker teaches us how to talk and how to listen to have great conversation that you’ve made a real connection or you’ve been perfectly understood. It’s without wasting your time, getting bored, and offending anybody.

Don’t multitask. Don’t pontificate.
Give simple questions. Go with the flow. Ask something that you don’t know. Don’t equate your experience with theirs. Try not to repeat yourself. Don’t care about small things. Listen and be brief.
The concept is to be interested in other people to be able to talk, even people who you don’t like. We must enjoy conversation. It makes others enjoy also.

Words in this story
conversation /noun/ the informal exchange of ideas by spoken words.

Frances Frei : How to build (and rebuild) trust

Frances Frei at TED2018  (transcript)
How to build (and rebuild) trust
Summary
I didn't understand the story, thus I'm going to write about Uber in Japan and whether Uber systems are trusted or not. It must lead to understanding this story.

Uber is a new service to connect a person who has a car or bicycle and time to a person who finds how to move or deliver something. 
By using application, those people can meet anywhere and anytime.
However, those people see at the first time thus people don't know each other, the people are introduced by application, though. People think that the important thing is trust here because people who don’t know each other have to start the business.

However, I think that before people use Uber, there are few trusts there. It’s because they are not companies but individuals that don’t have guarantees for customers and will get big money individually. Additionally, we see that tax companies are struggling.

The important purpose of service or business is to help people who are worried, to have passion, to do with pride and to allow all people to be happy. I don't feel that Uber thinks about that. It's only to get money easily. Tax companies have those thus trust is built. It takes for a long time, however, deep trust can be rebuilt again if it's lost. This is my way on how to build and rebuild trust.
God would inspire me with the power of doing my homework.

Words in this story
unprecedented /noun/ never done or known before.
wobble /noun/ an unsteady movement from side to side.
jeopardy /noun/ danger of loss, harm, or failure.
allow /verb/ admit (an event or activity) as legal or acceptable.

Kristie Overstreet : What doctors should know about gender identity

Kristie Overstreet at TEDxLivoniaCCLibrary  (transcript)
What doctors should know about gender identity
Summary
I thought hard that the patients who are transgender had to be treated as female or male while reading the story. However, l was sorry that my thought was wrong in the first place.

It’s to think that there are only two genders that are male and female is wrong but there are those two and whiteout those that are transgender is also wrong.

In the first place, it’s in the first place. In the first place, we had been just assigned a sex at birth based on our genitalia. A most important thing is that someone is assigned male at birth, though, that person lives her life with a sense of self as a female is female. Thus she visits gynecology hospital.

1) For doctors attention: it happens the opposite thing that a person is assigned female but she lives as a male. We call her transgender male but he also visits gynecology hospital for his health care so doctors have to treat those patients with the correct pronouns and name and have to give dignity and respect. It's highly likely that the rest of the staff will do too. Doctors can’t say that it’s not trained on how to care for.

The speaker tells us who might not see them yet that we have to understand it well, we have a new way of thinking about transgender, and it will be better for us to be separated with three groups. It's doctors, transgender communities, and the rest of us of the group.

2) For transgender communities attention: in the transgender community, people need to be empowered to speak up for their health care needs. It’s because their health care is not known by many people.

3) For the rest of us attention: even we have to think that a transgender individual is human, just like you and us. people competent and trained health care provider, just like you and us. 

The last sentence of the speaker means that transgender people are already changing, doctors are in the change, and the rest of us will face soon. This is one kind of change in the world. The title show doctors, but all people give dignity and respect to all people as humans.

Words in this story
binary /adj/ having two parts
spectrum /noun/ range of colors

My friends went to Togo

My friends went to Togo
Diary
In September of this year, My friends went to the Togolese Republic which is a country in West Africa bordered by Ghana to the west, Benin to the east and Burkina Faso to the north.
It seems to have taken 24 hours from Japan to Togo. There isn't a nonstop flight Togo from Japan, thus it has to change airplane twice to arrive at Togo. The route is going to Benin by way of Ethiopia and by land, going to Togo.
They have studied about Africa for one year and one of them has a Job with French which is the official language of Togo.

I knew a lot of things from their stories. In Togo, the countryside doesn't have the internet connection, however, people live happily, they guide travelers through their village, mountains, and natural beauty and they make a traveler a dress as a souvenir. It's their great job, however, in the village, English notebooks that someone studied become a toilet roll, however, people live happily.
My friends said that to actually experience was really important and there was the huge difference between the study and reality.
And then I was really happy too because they brought our company products that were flag-keychains as a Japanese souvenir.

Togo flag-keychains of our company products have had by Togolese people across the sea, it's pleasing for them, and I can hear and see it in the picture. It makes not only me but our company happy. Thank you for their great travel stories.
