Sumo can. And does.
2009-03-10 12:45:00 That story is absolutely true, and it was more horrifying than I make it sound, now, 11 years later. That's why I always backup my files, and I use the Online Backup from Sumo. Sumo makes backing up easy; everything is backed up the moment I hit "Save," so I don't need to make sure that at the end of the day, I'm backing everything up. I can set Sumo to backup to a local hard drive simultaneously, so that I can get to my backup files even if the Internet goes down -- like it did yesterday when a garbage truck took out our phone lines at the office. Plus, they do the greatest thing ever: "Point-In-Time Recovery," where I can go back to get a file from an earlier date if I have overwritten the newer one. So if I had a brief saved a year ago, and then today took it out to cut and paste some portions but overwrote it, I can still get that brief from a year ago. No more accidentally saving something with the wrong name and losing the first document forever. I feel secure using Su...

Sumo...Up in Smoke
2008-09-15 01:47:00 The first day of the Autumn Sumo Tournament began yesterday set against a drug scandal that has been capturing headlines and television coverage over the last month.The drama began following the arrest of a Russian wrestler Wakanoho after police claimed a small amount of marijuana was found in his wallet.After an emergency meeting on August 21 the Japan Sumo Association dismissed him and handed down a lifetime ban.He has the dubious honour of being the first active wrestler to be given his marching orders.Wakanoho,whose real name is Soslan Aleksandrovich Gagloev,has subsequently filed a lawsuit to nullify his dismissal.Following on from his arrest the JSA tested all 69 wrestlers in the top two divisions. Two other Russian wrestlers,Roho and Hakurozan,who are brothers,tested positive for the drug.A second test conducted by an internationally certified lab apparently found the presence of the drug.Both wrestlers have denied using the drug.Like Wakanoho they were dismissed and are also...

Nagoya Grand Sumo Tournament RoundUp 2008
2008-07-28 14:17:00 The Nagoya Grand Sumo Tournament ended yesterday.Hakuho had wrapped up the Emperors Cup on day 13 so the only real interest was whether he could end with a 15 win 0 loss record.Which he did by beating Kotooshu in the last bout of the final day.Kotooshu who won the last basho and had earlier hopes of promotion to the rank of yokozuna ended up with a 9-6 record.Baruto finished 10-5 and ozeki Kaio with a 9-6 win loss record.An eel and rice bento available in many shops at this time of year.Eel is seen as giving people stamina and energy in the hot,humid days of summer.Today with the temperature again in the mid 30s Nagoya had thunder and lightning throughout the day.Intermittent showers meant that carrying an umbrella was necessary.

Friday Flash..More from the Nagoya Sumo Tournament
2008-07-17 19:35:00 A couple of shots from the Nagoya Grand Sumo Tournament I attended earlier in the week.Below is a photo of yokozuna Asashoryu performing the traditional dohyo-iri or "entering the ring" ceremony.Accompanied by two lower ranked wrestlers and a judge,the yokozuna goes through an elaborate ceremony.After clapping his hands to get the attention of the gods he extends his hands to his sides and turns his palms upward to show he isnt hiding any weapons.He next rises one leg in the air then the other.Finally he stomps each leg down onto the the surface of the ring or dohyo symbolically driving evil away.After he has finished and his attendants have left the other yokozuna Hakuho repeated the ceremony.The second shot shows some of the merchandise and souvenirs available from the stalls outside the gym.Various towels,cloths and handkerchiefs were available.A multitude of Hello Kitty goods was also on sale.Pens,cookies and cloths bearing Hello Kitty figures in sumo garb were displayed in each...

Sumo Practice
2008-07-07 11:52:00 The Nagoya Grand Sumo Tournament is due to start this Sunday July 13th.Last week sumo wrestlers descended upon Nagoya and have been practicing in various beya or stables dotted round Nagoya in preparation for the 15 day competition.I tagged along with a friend early this morning to see the wrestlers at ozeki Chiyotakai's stable go through their paces.Members of the public can watch the workout provided they remain quiet and they dont use their flash when taking photos.There was one amusing incident when a man arrived with a small pit bull terrier.The animals asthmatic wheezing reverberated around the courtyard much to the other onlookers amusement.Of course it was only a matter of time before the owner and dog were told politely to depart.The photo above shows umbrella bearing onlookers gathered outside the building that houses the practice sumo ring where the wrestlers practice.The stable occupies quite a large area of land and there are a number of buildings and structures on th...

Tokyo In Sight!
2008-03-13 00:02:00 Well, the title of this post may be exaggerated, but today I won in the lottery. Usually I play once or twice a year. But then Dorin Popa (a guy from Munich) started a lottery blog. Each week he buys a lottery ticket and if you have saved his address in your blog roll or comment on his blog you join the lottery automatically.Of course people started fantasizing what they would do with the money. Me too. I was sure if I would win a larger sum, I would go on a holiday trip. The past days I have been thinking, reading and even dreaming a lot of Tokyo. Today night I thought to myself that if I ever wanted to fly to Japan, I would need to buy a lotto ticket. That´s what I did online at 3 am in the morning.Today I won and if I do so a few more times I can book my flight to Tokyo. :) What a great year!Actually I do not have any relationship to Japan and I guess I have pretty touristy interests in Tokyo, but the city is just too tempting. I think of Geishas, Sumo Wrestling, Bondage, Sushi, ...

Review: Nike Sumo Squared 5900
2008-03-11 15:49:00 Square was all the rage in 2007, with the original Sumo Squared, Callaway FT-i and various other models reaching the market. The initial buzz factor was huge as everyone seemed to love to talk about super high MOI and the ultra-forgiving nature of the square driver head. Sure there were some complaints of a loss of distance and deafening sound, quieting the square head buzz a little?However, it has been over a year now, and as far as I can tell, club designers do not sleep these days. The Nike engineers have obviously been hard at work, recently unveiling their new square driver: The Sumo Squared 5900.
