As the title says, I'm a little confused because last week and again this week, I noticed that NHK Newsline was only 10 minutes long instead of the usual 30 minutes. I know that it used to be a 15-minute program, with occasional 10-minute editions, but didn't they switch to a 30-minute format more than a year ago?

Have they switched back to the shorter format again? If not, is there a publicly available schedule showing when they're going to air the 10–15-minute editions and when they'll return to the regular 30-minute format, or is it something we'll only know once the program actually airs?

This might sound a little crazy, but I actually use the show as my break, especially the 12 noon broadcast. I don't know why, but the airtime and duration are just perfect for me to rest my shoulders and hands after typing for a while. I was also advised to take short breaks like this a few times during working hours, so I've kind of gotten used to using NHK Newsline as my little break time.

Hi! as the title says. I'd like to try this recipe (hoepfully a success fingers crossed), and I'll be using a mixer to make the kneading process faster. I just have a question about the oven temperature stated in the recipe. Is the temperature in the recipe intended for a regular (non-convection) oven? If I'll be using a convection oven instead, what temperature would you recommend? Also, how many minutes should I bake it on the bottom rack, and how many minutes on the top rack?

Is there anything else you would suggest or any important tips that I should know but haven't thought to ask? Also, I live in a hot and humid tropical country, so I think that may affect the recipe or the baking process as well. I'd really appreciate any advice or adjustments you think I should make based on that.

I'm excited to try this recipe and look forward to your answers. Thank you very much in advance for your response!
