Training Program for New Staff

The Hokuriku Electric Power Company in Japan has organized a special training program for its new staff – pole climbing exercise. Each one of them had to climb the pole in bare hands while attached with a safety belt. When they reached the highest point, they had to take their hands off the pole leaving the body to be supported by the rope only. This exercise often tests the climber’s strength, endurance and agility.

Heart-Shaped Melon

Tired of sending the routine bouquets on mother's day, the farmers in Japan thought of something innovative to please the customer-the heart-shaped melon, it was sold in limited quantity at a price of USD153 per piece.

It was also sold online, if you have missed it this year watch out for next year!
