Kurume, Fukuoka, Japan, July 17-21, 2017
============================================================
subject: follow-up previous circular
Dear Colleagues,
We are afraid that the circular was not sent to all the participants.
This is a highlight on the previous circular.
All the circualr can be seen from http://www-x.phys.se.tmu.ac.jp/ltd17/wp/?cat=5
– from 10th circular
[1] status of Kurume
The heavy rain attacked on the north Kyushu island last week and in Asakura-city which is just north of Kurume, a few more people passed away.
However the downtown area of Kurume had no damage. Both the bus and train services from the Fukuoka Airport and the Fukuoka/Tenjin stations are normal. Therefore, we will hold LTD17 in Kurume as planned.
A railway bridge connecting between Kurume and Oita area was destroyed. However, the excursion to Beppu, which is in Oita prefecture, will be conducted as planned since we will use a coach to go to Beppu.

We will repeatedly play all the movies outside the conference room throughout all days during the conference.
