The attack was costly but inflicted great losses on five German divisions and pinned down troops reserved for reliefs of tired divisions on the Flanders front. The British strategy of forcing the German army to defend the Ypres salient, to protect the Belgian coast and submarine bases at Bruges, had succeeded. The French and Russian armies could make local attacks at Verdun and during the Kerensky Offensive but still needed time to recuperate and were vulnerable to large German attacks. The British offensive at Ypres drew German divisions away from the French and Russian armies and forced the Germans into a costly defence of Flanders. In Belgium, the Fifth Army (General Hubert Gough) had managed to advance little further towards Passchendaele since 31 July, due to the tenacity of the German defence and the unusually wet weather. Gough wanted to avoid delay in resuming the offensive, to prevent the Germans from recovering and to create the conditions for Operation Hush on the coast, which needed the high tides due at the end of August. Tactical developments In July 1917, Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig began the Third Battle of Ypres, in an attempt to inflict unsustainable losses on the German army and to advance out of the Ypres Salient to capture the Belgian coast. At the Battle of Messines Ridge, the ridge had been captured down to the Oosttaverne line and a substantial success had been gained in the subsequent Battle of Pilckem Ridge from 31 July – 2 August. Ground conditions during the Battles of Ypres campaign were poor, as the surface had been bombarded, fought over and partially flooded, at times severely so. Shelling had destroyed drainage canals in the area and unseasonable heavy rain in August, turned some parts into morasses of mud and waterlogged shell-craters. Supply troops walked to the front on duck boards laid across the mud, often carrying loads of up to 99 lb (45 kg). It was possible for soldiers to slip off the path into the craters and drown. Trees were reduced to blasted trunks, the branches and leaves torn away. Bodies of men buried earlier were uncovered by the rain and shelling.

Aftermath The battle penetrated a majority of the defenses of the Hindenburg Line and allowed the next attack (the Battle of Cambrai (1918)) to complete the penetration and begin the advance beyond the Hindenburg Line. Twelve Victoria Crosses, the highest military decoration for valour awarded to British and Commonwealth forces, were awarded for actions during the battle; • Acting Lieutenant-Colonel John Vereker, 6th Viscount Gort of the 1st Battalion, Grenadier Guards. • Captain John MacGregor, 2nd Battalion, Canadian Mounted Rifles. • Captain Cyril Hubert Frisby, 1st Battalion, Coldstream Guards. • Lieutenant Graham Thomson Lyall, 102nd (North British Columbia) Battalion, CEF. • Lieutenant Samuel Lewis Honey, 78th Battalion (Winnipeg Grenadiers), CEF. • Lieutenant George Fraser Kerr, 3rd Battalion (Toronto Regiment), CEF. • Lieutenant Milton Fowler Gregg, Royal Canadian Regiment. • Sergeant William Merrifield, 4th (Central Ontario) Battalion, CEF. • Sergeant Frederick Charles Riggs, 6th Battalion, York and Lancaster Regiment. • Corporal Thomas Neely, 8th Battalion, The King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster). • Lance-Corporal Thomas Norman Jackson, 1st Battalion, Coldstream Guards. • Private Henry Tandey, 5th Battalion, Duke of Wellington's Regiment (West Riding). Commemoration The Canadian participation in the Battle of the Canal du Nord is commemorated at the Canadian Bourlon Wood Memorial, located southeast of the town of Bourlon. The memorial is located on high ground beside the Bourlon Woods, giving a view of the town. The Fifth Battle of Ypres, also called the Advance of Flanders and the Battle of the Peaks of Flanders (French: Bataille des Crêtes de Flandres) is an informal name used to identify a series of battles in northern France and southern Belgium from late September through October 1918. After the German Spring Offensive of 1918 was stopped, German morale waned and the increasing numbers of American soldiers arriving on the Western Front gave the Allies a growing advantage over the German forces. To take advantage of this Marshal Ferdinand Foch developed a strategy which became known as the Grand Offensive in which attacks were made on the German lines over as wide a front as possible. Belgian, British and French forces around the Ypres Salient were to form the northern pincer of an offensive towards the Belgian city of Liège.

英語を勉強しているのですが、writingが苦手なので自分でお題を決めていろいろ書いています。この前外人の方に見せたら次のような指摘をされました。（ちなみにこの文章のお題はパトスかエトスかロゴスのうちどれかひとつが使われているCMを二つ選んで説明するというものです） I：we,our,usなどの第三者の名詞やIは使わないほうが良い。 II：Controlling　Ideaが無い＝Thesisが短すぎる。 III：(1)、(2)、(3)の文は英語ではこういう表現はしない。 IV：引用が多すぎるからもっとparaphrazeしたほうがいい。 本文 We always watch TV, internet or magazine commercials without thinking deeply about them. But there are various strategies that are used in commercials. Two commercials featuring ZOTRIM Diet Supplement and DHC Skin Care Lotion used ‘logos.’ Logos means persuading by the use of reasoning, evidence or concrete numbers and that is an appeal is based on making a person’s life better or easier. ZOTRIM advertised “This is 100% natural!” and “10 million people are using this! “ These messages arouse people’s interest and encourage people to buy it by representing concrete number. DHC Skin Care Lotion also used ‘logos.’ In the commercial two girls advertised “(1)This product is No.1 sales in all over the world!” and introduced success voice of users. (2)These messages mean almost people use this lotion and they can get clear and smooth skin like users if they use it. (3)Almost people who watched these logical commercials will buy these products, because the more there are evidence, reason, or concrete number, the easier people believe. This strategy used in both ZOTRIM Diet Supplement and DHC Skin Care Lotion appealed to logic or reason and whip up their interest or emotion by showing good parts of the products with concrete number, evidence, and results of survey. よろしくおねがいします。

はじめまして。Paradox Interactive社のストラテジーゲームのCrusader Kings II（クルセイダーキングスII）『完全日本語版』について、質問です。 元々歴史シミュレーションゲームが好きで、最近パラドゲーをやってみたいと思いました。そこで、クルセイダーキングスIIをやろうと考えたのですが、動作環境みるとかなりのスペックが必要な気がするのですが、ノートPCではとても出来ないのでしょうか？ ちなみにゲームに必要なスペックが OS：Windows XP/Vista/7（＋DierectX 9.0c以上）,CPU：Pentium 4/2.4GHzまたはAthlon 64 3500＋/2GHz以上，グラフィックスチップ：GeForce 8800またはATI Radeon X1900以上とあります。（ノートPCでは動作保障が出来ないと書いてありますが…） 私が所有しているパソコンはdynabook2008秋モデルTX65Gというもので、スペックが OS:windowsVista 32bit Dierect11 CPU:インテルcore 2Duo　プロセッサーp8400(2.26GHz) メモリ:2GB HDD:250GB グラフィック:GM45EXpresssチップセットGMA4500MHD とあります… PCゲームは初めてなのですが、これはやはりスペック的に厳しいでしょうか？ wiki等を見ても初心者向けの情報が少なく、よくわかりません。 とりあえず自分で調べた結果、メモリ、HDD、CPUは問題ないようなのですが、グラフィックボードと言うのがイマイチ優劣がわかりません。 ノートPCだと動作保障が出来ないとは書いてあるのですが、もし自分のPCでなんとか動かせるならやってみたいので、詳しい方がいればこのPCでできるかどうか、ご助言お願いします。

The 1/1st Herts war diary reads, The Bn who were in trenches on both sides of the road were ordered to move forward in support of the 118th Bde, being temporarily attached to the 4/5th Black Watch Regt. Soon after moving forward British troops were seen retiring to the left in large numbers. Consequently the Bn was ordered to move forward to the left and cover their withdrawal. After having skilfully carried this out the Bn conformed to the general withdrawal to a line between MORCOURT and the FOUCACOURT–LAMOTTE road. The Bn collected and assembled, then counter attacked the enemy, driving him back to within a few hundred yards of the village of MORCOURT.(27 March 1918) First Battle of Arras, 28 March Day 8, 28 March, The focus of the German attack changed again on 28 March. The Third Army, around Arras, that would be the target of Operation Mars. Twenty-nine divisions attacked the Third Army and were repulsed. German troops advancing against the Fifth Army, from the original front at St. Quentin, had penetrated some 60 km (40 mi) by this time, reaching Montdidier. Rawlinson replaced Gough, who was "Stellenbosched" (sacked) despite having organised a long and reasonably successful retreat given the conditions. The offensive saw a great wrong perpetrated on a distinguished British commander that was not righted for many years. Gough's Fifth Army had been spread thin on a 42-mile [68 km] front lately taken over from the exhausted and demoralized French. The reason why the Germans did not break through to Paris, as by all the laws of strategy they ought to have done, was the heroism of the Fifth Army and its utter refusal to break. They fought a 38-mile [61 km] rearguard action, contesting every village, field and, on occasion, yard ... With no reserves and no strongly defended line to its rear, and with eighty German divisions against fifteen British, the Fifth Army fought the Somme offensive to a standstill on the Ancre, not retreating beyond Villers-Bretonneux. — Roberts The German attack against the Third Army was less successful than that against the Fifth Army. The German 17th Army east of Arras advanced only 3 km (2 mi) during the offensive, largely due to the British bastion of Vimy Ridge, the northern anchor of the British defenses.

Position of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation The Treaty of Kars is overtly rejected by the Armenian Revolutionary Federation. The ARF specifically condemns the treaty as a "gross violation of international law" and argues that, because the three Transcaucasian republics were under the control of Moscow in 1921, their independent consent was questionable. The ARF also questions the validity of the treaty based on the authorities of the sides that concluded it. They contend that the Grand National Assembly of Turkey had no legal authority to sign international treaties. In addition, they argue that because the USSR was not founded until 1922, and therefore not a recognized state, it was also "not a subject of international law and, naturally, its government had no authority to enter into international treaties." Aftermath of the 2015 Russian Sukhoi Su-24 shootdown Following the shootdown of the Russian Sukhoi Su-24 over the Syria–Turkey border in November 2015 and the rise of Russo-Turkish tensions, members of the Communist Party of Russia proposed annulling the Treaty of Moscow and by extension the Kars treaty. Initially, the Russian Foreign Ministry considered this action in order to send a political message to the government of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. However, Moscow ultimately decided against it in its effort to de-escalate tensions with Ankara. Genoa Conference (1922) The Genoa Economic and Financial Conference was a formal international conclave of 34 nations held in Genoa, Italy from 10 April to 19 May 1922. It was planned by British prime minister David Lloyd George to resolve the major economic and political issues facing Europe, and to deal with the pariah nations of Germany and Russia, both of which had been excluded from the Paris Peace Conference of 1919. The conference was particularly interested in developing a strategy to rebuild defeated Germany, as well as central and eastern Europe, and to negotiate a relationship between European capitalist economies and the new Bolshevik regime in Soviet Russia. However Russia and Germany signed a separate agreement at Rapallo and the result at Genoa was a fiasco with few positive results. The conference did come up with a proposal for resuming the gold standard that was largely put in place by major countries. Genoa Conference (1922) ジェノア会議

During the mobile operations of 1914, armies which operated in enemy territory were forced to rely on wireless communication to a far greater extent than anticipated, having expected to use telegraph, telephones and dispatch riders. None of the armies had established cryptographic systems adequate to protect wireless transmissions from eavesdropping; all of the attacking armies sent messages containing vital information in plain language. From September to November 1914, the British and French intercepted c. 50 German messages, which showed the disorganisation of the German command in mid-September and the gap between the 1st and 2nd armies on the eve of the Battle of the Marne. Similar plain language messages and some decodes of crudely coded German messages, gave warnings to the British of the times, places and strengths of eight attacks of four corps or more, during the Race to the Sea and the subsequent battles in Flanders. Both sides tried to advance, after the "open" northern flank had disappeared, Franco-British attacks towards Lille in October were followed by attacks of the BEF, Belgians and a new French Eighth Army. A German offensive began on 21 October but the 4th and 6th armies were only able to take small amounts of ground, at great cost to both sides, at the Battle of the Yser (16–31 October) and further south at Ypres. Falkenhayn then attempted to achieve the limited goal of capturing Ypres and Mount Kemmel, from (19 October – 22 November). By 8 November, Falkenhayn accepted that the advance along the coast had failed and that taking Ypres was impossible. The French and Germans had failed to assemble forces near the northern flank swiftly enough to obtain a decisive advantage. Attacks had quickly been stopped and the armies had then improvised field defences, against which attacks were repulsed with many more casualties. By the end of the First Battle of Ypres, both sides were exhausted, short of ammunition and suffering from collapses in morale; some infantry units refused orders. The mutual failure in Flanders, led both sides to elaborate the improvised field fortifications of 1914, which made a return to mobile warfare even less likely. In November, Falkenhayn reconsidered German strategy, because the failures on the Yser and at Ypres, showed that Germany lacked the forces in the west to obtain a decisive victory; Vernichtungsstrategie and a dictated peace were beyond German resources.

After the battle, German naval experts were baffled at why Admiral Spee attacked the base and how the two squadrons could have met so coincidentally in so many thousands miles of open waters. Kaiser William II's handwritten note on the official report of the battle reads: "It remains a mystery what made Spee attack the Falkland Islands. See 'Mahan's Naval Strategy'." It was generally believed Spee was misled by the German admiralty into attacking the Falklands, a Royal Naval fuelling base, after receiving intelligence from the German wireless station at Valparaiso which reported the port free of Royal Navy warships. Despite the objection of three of his ships' captains, Spee proceeded to attack. However, in 1925 a German naval officer, Franz von Rintelen, interviewed Admiral William Reginald Hall, Director of the Admiraltry's Naval Intelligence Division (NID), and was informed that Spee's squadron had been lured towards the British battlecruisers by means of a fake signal sent in a German naval code broken by British cryptographers. (Similarly, on 14 March 1915, Dresden was intercepted by British ships while taking on coal at sea in a location identified by NID codebreakers). The Battle of Qurna, (3 to 9 December 1914) was between British forces and Ottoman forces that had retreated from Basra, which they lost at the Battle of Basra (1914) during the Mesopotamian campaign of World War I. By capturing Basra, the British had taken an important communications and industrial centre. The Ottomans retreated up the Tigris River. The British needed to secure their position in Basra and the oil fields at Abadan. After the defeat at Basra, the Ottomans decided to take up a defensive position at the small town of Qurna to the north. Since both the Tigris and Euphrates join together at Qurna, it made for an ideal position to make a stand since the British would have to cross the two rivers. The Ottomans had about 1,000 men under the command of Colonel Subhi Bey, the Wali or Governor of Basra. The British had about 2,100 under Major General C.I. Fry. On 3 December, the Ottomans were dug in at Qurna. A British force of two Indian battalions; the 104th Wellesley's Rifles and the 110th Mahratta Light Infantry, and a double company of British soldiers from the Norfolk Regiment accompanied by several gunboats attacked them.

On their way to the Hindenburg Line, in a fierce battle, the Canadian troops, led by General Sir Arthur Currie, overcame the earthworks of the incomplete Canal du Nord during the Battle of Canal du Nord. In late September/early October, one of the epic battles of the whole war was the breach of the Hindenburg Line (the Battle of St. Quentin Canal) by British, Australian and American troops (under the command of Australian General John Monash). Soon after, the Canadians breached the Hindenburg Line at the Battle of Cambrai. A key part of the German supply line ran parallel with the front. This second 1918 battle around the Somme was part of a strategy designed to push parts of the German line back behind this main supply line so cutting it and making impossible the efficient maintenance of the German forces on the front. The campaign began with battle of Bapaume and, starting shortly after, the Battle of Saint-Mihiel, outside the Somme area, with the aim of reducing salients before using the fluidity of the broken line to press on to the strategic railway. It was hoped that this fluidity would be present as, owing to the German advance in the spring, the German forces were well in advance of their hitherto impregnable, very well prepared defences on the Hindenburg Line. This policy worked but it took some very determined work at the St. Quentin Canal, among the prepared defences, to achieve success. Battle of Albert (21–23 August 1918) was the third battle by that name fought during World War I, following the First Battle of Albert and the Second Battle of Albert, with each of the series of three being fought roughly two years apart. This smaller third battle was significant in that it was the opening push that would lead to the Second Battle of the Somme and involved the Australian Corps. This attack opened the advance, with the main attack being launched by the Third Army along with support from the Fourth Army. The Second Battle of Bapaume, from 25 August to 3 September, was a continuation of this battle. The attacks developed into an advance, which pushed the German 2nd Army back along a 50-mile (80 km) front line. On 22 August, the 18th (Eastern) Division took Albert, with the British and Americans advancing on Arras.

By mid-February 1918, while Germany was negotiating the Russian surrender and the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, Ludendorff had moved nearly 50 divisions from the east, so that on the Western Front, Germany's troops outnumbered those of the Allied armies. Germany had 192 divisions and three brigades on the Western Front by 21 March, out of 241 in the German Army. Of these divisions, 110 were in the front line, 50 of which faced the shorter British front. Another 67 divisions were in reserve, with 31 facing the BEF. By May 1918, 318,000 American soldiers were due in France, with another million planned to arrive before August. The Germans knew that the only chance of victory was to defeat the Allies before the build-up of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF) was complete. The German strategy for the 1918 Spring Offensive or Kaiserschlacht (Kaiser's Battle), involved four offensives, Michael, Georgette, Gneisenau and Blücher–Yorck. Michael took place on the Somme and then Georgette was conducted on the Lys and at Ypres, which was planned to confuse the enemy. Blücher took place against the French in the Champagne region. Although British intelligence knew that a German offensive was being prepared, this far-reaching plan was much more ambitious than Allied commanders expected. Ludendorff aimed to advance across the Somme, then wheel north-west, to cut the British lines of communication behind the Artois front, trapping the BEF in Flanders. Allied forces would be drawn away from the Channel ports, which were essential for British supply; the Germans could then attack these ports and other lines of communication. The British would be surrounded and surrender. The British Prime Minister, David Lloyd George, had agreed that the BEF would take over more of the front line, at the Boulogne Conference, against military advice, after which the British line was extended. The "line", taken over from the French, barely existed, needing much work to make it easily defensible to the positions further north, which slowed progress in the area of the Fifth Army (General Hubert Gough). During the winter of 1917–1918, the new British line was established in an arc around St. Quentin, by many small unit actions among the ruined villages in the area. There were many isolated outposts, gaps in the line and large areas of disputed territory and waste land.

In Washington, politicians are beginning to recognise what some now describe as a "national crisis". A congressional hearing in July heard from experts in the field about what can be done to prevent deaths from child abuse. A national commission is being set up to coordinate a country-wide response. Many believe home visits to new parents by qualified health professionals, preparing them for the difficulties of family life, are key to that strategy. While child abuse blights the lives of victims' families, its devastating impact is felt far beyond relatives and friends. Abused children are 74 times more likely to commit crimes against others and six times more likely to maltreat their own children, according to the Texas Association for the Protection of Children. For this reason, experts believe it is in the US government's as well as society's interest to ensure children are protected from abuse. Each and every citizen, they say, has a responsibility to help break this cycle of violence. A statement from Mr Jobs's family said they were with him when he died peacefully on Wednesday. "In his public life, Steve was known as a visionary; in his private life, he cherished his family," they said, requesting privacy and thanking those who had "shared their wishes and prayers" during his final year. Apple said the company had "lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being". Tim Cook, who was made Apple's CEO after Mr Jobs stood down in August, said his predecessor had left behind "a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple". Flags are being flown at half mast outside the Apple headquarters in Cupertino, California, while fans of the company have left tributes outside Apple shops around the world. "What he's done for us as a culture, it resonates uniquely in every person," said Cory Moll, an Apple employee in San Francisco.

首都圏を電車＋地下鉄で移動するときに運賃の安いルートを検索したいのですが、Google MapやYahoo乗換案内、駅ネットなどのWeb Serviceで検索しても答が見つかりません。 具体的な例として、有楽町線の月島から、青梅線の昭島までの最安経路を見ます。 一般的な最安値コース： 月島からメトロ有楽町線に乗車し、永田町-赤坂見附乗り換えで、メトロ丸ノ内線でメトロ荻窪まで２３０円。 JR荻窪から中央線と青梅線に乗りついで、昭島まで３８０円、合計で６１０円が一般的な安値ルート。 マニアックな最安値コース： JR荻窪からJR西国分寺まで乗車し、西国分寺で一旦改札を出てから乗りなおしで昭島に行くと合計で６００円になるマニアックコースがあります。西国分寺の駅周辺でラーメンを食ってから行くコースですね(笑)。 しかし、Web検索サービスでは Googleのルート・乗換案内で７１０円コース、 Yahoo乗換案内で６８０円コース、 駅ネット（JR東日本）では７８０円コースなどしか提案されません。 どうも、メトロの永田町-赤坂見附の乗り換えが選択肢になく、運賃の安いメトロを出来るだけ長区間乗車し、運賃の高いJRの乗車距離を短く抑えると言うストラテジが使えないようです。 質問(1) なぜ、三つのWeb検索サービスが、みな異なる安値ルートを提案し、しかもそのどれもが実際の最安値ではないという事態が起きるのでしょうか？ 質問(2) 皆さまは、電車＋地下鉄で安値ルートを探すときにはどのようになさっていますか？

英 The Economist の経済記事からの質問です。 下記の文章中の use its balance sheet とはどういう意味でしょうか。 After the crisis first broke in August last year, the Fed pursued a two-pronged strategy. The first element was to lower interest rates to cushion the economy. The second was to use its balance sheet to help commercial and investment banks finance their holdings of hard-to-value securities and avoid fire-sales of assets. また、後の文章 On September 22nd the euro made its largest-ever advance against the dollar on worries that America might one day inflate its way out of those debts. Such fears are compounded by the expansion of the Fed's balance sheet. この中にも the expansion of the Fed's balance sheet という表現が出ています。 あわせて説明していただければ幸甚です。 前後をざっと訳してみますと、 「昨年の8月に危機が表面化した際、米連邦準備制度理事会は両面作戦で迎え撃った。一つは、経済への打撃を和らげるべく金利引き下げを実施したこと。もう一つは、商業銀行と投資銀行の評価困難な証券類の保有を資金的に支え、資産の投げ売りを食い止めるために[自らのバランスシートを使用した]？ ことである。」 後の文章の方の訳は 「ユーロは、9月22日、対ドルでかつてないほど大幅に上昇した。原因はアメリカが将来インフレをてこに自らの債務の負担から抜け出すのではないかとの懸念である。その懸念は[連邦準備制度理事会のバランスシートの拡大]？ によって増幅している。 上記の訳の不備についてのご指摘も歓迎します。

グラボにInnovision製/GrForce7800GTX-SLI構成、7900GTを使用していた頃は、ＰＣゲームプレイ中にフリーズする事は皆無だったのですが、Leadtek製/GeForce 8800 Ultra Leviathan(水冷式)に切換えて以降、殆どのゲームでプレイ中にＰＣがフリーズする様になりました。 よくプレイするゲームは、FPS(HL2,CSS,TeamFortress2,Assasi's Creed,TimeShiftなどなど)、Racing(GTR2,GTL,Race07)、Strategy(SupuremeCommander,Command&Conquer3 TiberiumWarsなど)です。 はっきり言って、8800 Ultraにはもうウンザリです。 今後買換えを考えてはいますが、どなたか同様の症状で悩んでる方、対処方法をご存知の方はおられないでしょうか？ Forcewareベータ版＆正式版が出る度に、今回こそ改善されてるかも期待してドライバ更新をしますが、一向に改善しません。 (新型グラボがどんどん出るのは歓迎ですが、それら対するForecewareの出来の悪さには辟易します。) 尚、当方ＰＣのスペック概要は下記です。 (1) Motherboad :ASUS Maximus Formula Special Edition (2) OS :Windows XP-SP3 32bit 　　　　(Win Vista Ultimate 64bitとのマルチブート) (3) CPU :Intel Core2 Extream QX9650 (4) Memory :Patriot 2GB×4 (5) DirectX :DirectX 9.0c (Mar.2008 Newest version) (6) GraphicCard :GeForce8800 Ultra /Producted by Leadtek (7) SoundCard :SoundBlaster X-Fi Digital Audio /Producted by Creative Lab. (8) 物理演算カード：GRAW-126 /Producted by ASUS メモリはVista導入前はKingston製HyperX 1G×4でしたが、やはりゲームは死にまくりでした。 また、電源は、800W級(グラボ用)と1000W級(その他用)の2台搭載可能なＰＣケースを使用しています。

お恥ずかしい話ですが僕は人生のどん底を歩んできており、友達もなく、才能、運もなく努力もせず、親の脛に齧り付いてとうとう高校を卒業してしまいました。生きる楽しみなんてなく早く地球環境が悪化して早く人類滅亡してしまう事を望んできました。 しかし僕はこの和田秀樹さんの『和田式　合格のストラテジー２　早慶完全合格術』をに出会ってドラゴン桜のように全ての人を見返したく本気で早稲田に行こうと決意しました。和田さんの言うとおり「情報」「戦略」「要領」が大事だと思います。 しかし、情報は赤本くらいしかなく物凄く要領が悪い人間です。 ひきこもりぎみなので予備校には行きたくなく、宅学で本気で頑張ろうと思います。口でいうのは簡単ですが今回は自分の１８年間の人生の中で後悔ないくらい勉強したいです。 さて今回質問した理由はこの本には妥当な参考書や勉強法等載っておりますが平成１０年に発行されたもので信用していいのか分かりません… 2007年度版の同じような参考書を教えて頂けると幸いですがそんなに細かく和田さんのように分析して分かる人がいるか分からないのでそこまで期待しません、10年前でも早稲田は早稲田!!のでこの10年前の物をネットで引っ張り出してきて購入した方がいいのかやっぱり傾向が流石に変わっているからやめた方がいいかを教えてください。 お願いします。

昨年は、日本の国債以外ほとんどの資産が値上がりするよい年でしたが、今後の下落場面も考えると、買いだけでなく、売りからも利益をもたらす、ヘッジファンドに魅力を感じています。 100万円以下で買える投信の内で、マネックス証券が販売しているアジア・ファンド・オブ・ファンズ連動型投信（愛称アジアフォーカス）と、野村證券が販売しているGSグローバル・マーケット・ストラテジーが、良さそうに思えます。 アジアフォーカスは、アジアを投資対象とする、いろいろな戦略をとるヘッジファンドを組み合わせたもので、リスクを、インデックスファンドの半分に設計し、年10％ほどのリターンを目指しているそうです。 GSの方は、主に先進国を投資対象にして、グローバルマクロ戦略をとっています。シグマが10.72、シャープレシオが1.80ですので、リスクも低く、リスク以上のリターンを出しているように思います。 日本の国債以外の投資比率は、日本株と外国債券と外国株が5対4対1くらいです。外国株部分は、先進国の株は、日本株と連動するのでほんの少しだけで、これらと相関性の低い新興国の株がメインです。 株部分の投資は、投信とETFのみで、個別株に投資したことはありません。検討中の投信は、どちらも、株やその他の投資をしてきた人を対象に販売しているようですが、買うときと売るときの見定めが難しいものなのでしょうか？リスクが、高いものなのでしょうか？ 何か注意する点は、ありますか？
