CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) - Officials at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill say there has been no rush by students and graduates to sign up for classes to replace fraudulent ones they took in the African and Afro-American Studies Department.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reported (http://bit.ly/GKEZEB ) the university officials said only one student has signed up for a makeup course and one graduate has asked about them.
School spokeswoman Dee Reid says 46 students are at risk of not graduating unless they complete an extra course.
An investigation determined that 384 students and alumni took 39 fraudulent classes between 1997 and 2009 in the African and Afro-American Studies department.
The head of the department and a former department manager left the school in the aftermath of the investigation.

Jackson police officer Richard McGahey has been found not guilty of bribery. The 43-year-old Jackson police sergeant was arrested in September on bribery charges.
During opening arguments Tuesday, prosecutors painted McGahey as a corrupt cop, who was supplementing his income by taking bribes for field releases. A field release would allow someone with a warrant, who was wanted for arrest, stay out on the streets if they came in contact with an officer who ran their name through their criminal database.
The FBI used a long time confidential informant by the name of Russell Carr to build their case. Tuesday the undercover video of the exchange of money was shown to jurors. Prosecutors say Carr met with McGahey at a church in Clinton where he received $250.
"Rather than arrest you, take you to jail, book you in and have the officer write you a warrant to come to court on a date and you're released. You don't go to jail so your warrant on the books is essentially taken off," said prosecutor Stanley Alexander during his opening statement. "Well, you're not supposed to get paid for doing that."
Thursday and Friday McGahey testified that the money Russell Carr gave him was repayment of a loan, not a bribe. McGahey took the stand in his own defense Thursday.
The 20-year veteran of the Jackson Police Department said that he often loaned money to Russell Carr, who worked as an informant over the years.
He also said that he often performed field releases for those with warrants, due to jail overcrowding.
McGahey says Carr owed him $196 when he requested a meeting in 2011. Prosecutors say Carr gave McGahey a $200 bribe for a field release.
Carr took the stand Wednesday. Carr was instrumental in setting up a sting with McGahey, where the alleged payoff took place. Carr testified that he wore a hidden camera during a meeting with McGahey in 2011, where he was to give him $250 in exchange for a field release for a friend.
FBI agent Brendan Sheehan was on the stand Wednesday for the second day. He oversaw the sting operation and undercover videotaping of a meeting between an informant and McGahey in 2011.
Defense attorneys said the video never shows any money being handed to McGahey, nor is there any discussion of the amount of money, and the alleged favor.
Tuesday, defense attorneys said the surveillance video only shows Carr paying back a loan he borrowed from McGahey.
Assistant Chief Lee Vance with the Jackson Police Department detailed McGahey's years on the force.
"Well, he has been here about 20 years. He has worked in a lot of different areas, patrol, investigations, narcotics, and he is a member of the SWAT team," explained Vance.

I am currently in the process of building an extension (38sqm) to our terraced home. As a matter of courtesy, I consulted with all neighbours who were supportive and had no concerns or objections. We bought the house a year ago and prior to this the house was derelict for 18 years.
At this stage we have finished renovating the main house and are working on the extension. All the block work, joists and studding of the ground floor are completed. Last week, an enforcement officer arrived at house saying that our next door neighbour had complained about our extension. (This neighbour had wanted to buy the property previously and was jealous about the improvements we had made to the house) I explained the extension was within 40sqm and should be exempt from development. The enforcement officer had little interest in this and instructed me to contact the planning office, which I did. The Planner asked me to submit plans and recommended that I stop the work until the situation was resolved.
Within two working days, I had a professional set of plans submitted by an architect. After 5 days, the Planner and Enforcement officer visited our house to examine the extension. The planner was reasonable and professional but the Enforcement Officer kept trying to find fault. He even complained about us using cavity blocks. (I know that this is not the ideal method of construction but we are running out of money at this stage) which is certainly not an enforcement issue. He only dropped the issue when I said I knew that thee were compliant with all planning laws. A Building control officer was also due to visit to examine the extension. This seems a lot of resources to check a simple extension.
Their conclusion was that our extension was not exempt from planning as more that 12sqm was on the first floor. The Enforcement officer also said that the boundary wall of my property may not be mine. This is almost impossible as the boundary wall is the gable wall of my house and the extension will be over a section of the wall that is adjacent to a public laneway. The want me to produce a map or title deep to prove I have a right to build on the wall. My solicitor said such a map or a deed with this level of detail may not exist as the house is over 200 years old.
I feel that this enforcement officer is going to make life very difficult for us and may be a friend of the neighbour who objected. This neighbour in question is far from planning compliant: He owns two houses that meet the perimeter of our boundary and has never applied for any planning permission despite the fact that he has built a first floor extension on a boundary wall, inserted a first floor window overlooking our garden, Built a wall against the gable wall of our house, put a roof on an alley way which connects his house to ours, installed waste sewerage pipes at ground level on a shared laneway which he has no access right to which connect into our private sewer at ground level. He also burns the rubbish, plastic and foam from his shop, basically operating a part time incenerator.
I have told the enforcement officer this but he says this is a legal matter and not a matter for the council. At this stage we cannot sleep with the stress of it all and are desperate for professional advice and direction.

A convicted murderer who was mistakenly released from custody by Cook County officials was returned to Indiana authorities following a brief court appearance Saturday, officials said.
Prosecutors asked Judge Edward Harmening to drop charges issued against Steven L. Robbins after he was accidentally released from jail earlier this week.
Robbins, 44, was taken into custody without incident by Cook County Sheriff's Police Friday night at 10:55 p.m. in Kankakee, following an extensive manhunt.
"Is this the case I read about in the papers?" Harmening asked while Robbins, dressed in a black North Face coat looked on.
The escape charge against Robbins was dropped after assistant public defender Todd Chatman told the judge that Robbins had "no intention to flee."
After the brief hearing, Chatman told reporters that Robbins wasn't at fault for walking away.
"He was released by the state, by Cook County. They said, 'Bye,'" Chatman said.
"...What are you gonna do? You've been in prison for 11 years. Are you just going to say wait a minute, 'Let me back in?' He thought he was being shuffled to a van to Indiana and next thing he knew as he was getting through the process of getting into the van...[then] it's out the door."
Harmening later was heard joking about the matter, saying that Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart should make sure there's a hold on another inmate--not in Cook but Kane County.
At the time of his arrest, Robbins was watching television in a woman's home in the 400 block of Frasier Avenue, authorities said. An hour before, Robbins was spotted grocery shopping with a wig on, Dart's spokesman Frank Bilecki said.
Robbins was brought to Illinois for an outstanding warrant on 1992 charges of armed violence and possession of drugs that were ultimately dismissed. The charges had been dismissed in 2007, but the warrant was never quashed, Dart said.
A paperwork bungle was probably to blame for his release.
"We've found our office did not operate the way it should have," Dart had told reporters. Dart said, "We let people down" by mistakenly allowing a convicted murderer to walk out the front door of his jail.
Jail employees gave him donated clothes — brown pants and a brown shirt — and let him go because they apparently never saw the paperwork that detailed his Indiana conviction, Dart said. Sheriff deputies likely even handed him a bus pass.
Robbins was convicted of the 2002 murder of Rutland Melton in Indianapolis and shouldn't have been released for decades.
Documents show the Gary, Ind., native was locked up for the May 12, 2002, murder of Melton, 21, after a fight at a birthday party in Indianapolis.
At some point during the party, Robbins and his then-wife got in an argument on the street outside the home holding the party, according to prosecutors. Melton witnessed the argument and told Robbins he shouldn't hit a woman. At that point, Robbins walked over to his car, told witnesses, "I got something for all you (expletive)," and then shot Melton in the chest, prosecutors alleged.
It appears documents from the Indiana Department of Correction and from the Cook County sheriff that specified Robbins should not be released didn't travel with Robbins when he was taken from the south suburban Markham courthouse — where he was initially taken — to the 26th and California criminal courts building, where he appeared before a judge, Dart said.
"He's brought in front of a judge who now finds there's no case. The case had been dismissed, so the judge says 'there's no case here, this person should be released as to this case.' Because no paperwork had gone to the jail about him coming from Indiana, all the people in the records room saw was a guy whose court case was dismissed, so he — like another 200 people everyday — was released out the front door of the jail," Dart said.
Doug Garrison, a spokesman for the Indiana Department of Correction, said Friday that the Cook County Sheriff's Office personnel who picked up Robbins were given paperwork that specifically requested Robbins not be released.
Robbins was discovered missing from the jail as authorities were preparing to return him to Indiana on Thursday afternoon.
Cook County officials first acknowledged the mistake Thursday evening in a news release. Dart said he learned of the blunder Thursday at 3 p.m.
Dart said the archaic, paper-only system of tracking thousands of inmates likely led to the mistake.
Though he said his office is "trying to be responsible in making sure we don't throw everybody under the bus," Dart said, "clearly the initial part broke down where we were able to get an extradition warrant on a case that didn't exists. That's a problem."
He said the extradition was approved by a Cook County assistant state's attorney and by a judge. Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez said a prosecutor told sheriff's police not to bring Robbins back several days before he was extradited.
In any case, it was Dart's employees who let a convicted murderer walk out of the jail.
"Clearly the biggest breakdown is in us. Us, not anybody else," Dart said. "Us not having paperwork follow a guy through the system."
Police are investigating the murder of a homeless man who was beaten to death in an alley in Logan Square.

So... for how long should I bulk? I was thinking that a month and a half of clean(er) eating and more intense training should yield some good gain judging on how I trained and ate during the past month anda half (high volume, 1800 or so cals. Hey, I didnt know any better.) and I was still able to put two inches on around my chest. I wanted to know how long bulks and cuts should last, if I'm not planning on competing any time soon. Remember I wanted to put on 15-20 lbs in 5 months, but I dont want to have to buy special "fat pants". Needless to remind you all, but I used to be a pretty fat bastige, and my body stores fat fairly readily, so two months of this bulking stuff and I wont be able to see my toes.
You bulk up,up to the point you consider.No one can advice you to bulk for a month or two.. It's up to you.If you can't stand fat gain you could do shorter cycles.
Yeah, it's pretty much up to you. I am going to bulk until I feel I NEED to cut. I probably will only cut if I want to compete in PL and I need to make a certain weight, other than that I won't cut until I hit at least 180. You heard it here. If you ever see me make a post about cutting and it isn't for that reason, let me have it!

Ok, I was mainly wondering if it screwed up your metabolism if you switch between bulking and cutting too often. I will probably start cutting once I hit 155 lbs or so. Hopefully most of that gain will be muscle now that I'm eating clean

Reviews for Skillet-Roasted Lemon Chicken with Potatoes
Sort By :
Very good
We really liked this, especially the lemon flavor.
Very good! I liked the pronounced lemon flavor with the rosemary! I used halved small red potatoes instead of fingerlings. I used a very coarsely chopped fresh tomato instead of cherry tomatoes. Use what you have! Mine took closer to an hour to finish the chicken. I sprayed olive oil with my Misto about half way through when all was looking a bit dry. Couldn't be easier! This is going to FB!
This was good, will use less lemon. I had to cook an extra 15 minutes longer (not covered) and this was probably because my cast iron skillet is huge. Very yummy and everyone liked. Their only comment was it was very lemony.
Ive made this recipe SEVERAL times and it is amazing! I omit the tomatoes because no one in my house eats them. It is definately a staple meal in my house now!

The Sox took pitchers with 14 of their 22 picks -- that's 64 percent for those scoring at home -- making left-handed closer Royce Ring the 18th overall pick and taking hurlers with four of their top five selections.
"We definitely like to draft pitching," director of scouting Doug Laumann said. "Pitching either brings you other pitching or other players so we kind of stick with that philosophy."
It came as no surprise the Sox sought to once again stockpile their farm system with pitchers. The offseason trade of Josh Fogg, Kip Wells and Matt Guerrier to Pittsburgh, plus the Major League progress of Dan Wright, Jon Garland, Mark Buehrle and Matt Ginter have reduced the number of the organization's top pitching prospects.
"There were some clubs that had the philosophy that they were going to take some position guys early because it was weak in position players," Laumann said. "I've always felt like you're supposed to deal from a position of strength so if the draft is strong and has strength in pitching then you should take pitching."
After taking Chicago-area pitcher Kris Honel with their first pick last year, they waited until the final selection of the day to take infielder Eric Keefner in the 22nd round. Keefner played high school baseball at De La Salle, which is located just across the Dan Ryan Expressway, a short walk from Comiskey Park.
Here's a rundown of Tuesday's selections after Ring:
59. Jeremy Reed, CF, Long Beach State
Laumann's comment: We think Jeremy's going to be a quality defensive center fielder. He's got a chance to be a leadoff-type of guy. Was very successful last summer with the USA Team. Had a pretty good history on him and looks like he's got a chance to be a solid, everyday big league center fielder.
90. Joshua Rupe, RHP, Louisburg College
Laumann's comment: A 19-year-old arm-strength guy with a plus fastball, plus curveball. Has some mechanical flaws. We've had some success in the past with our player development as far as fixing players. There's some things we need to do to get him straightened out but if we can we think we've got a quality starter.
120. Ryan Rodriguez, LHP, Keller (Texas) H.S.
Laumann's comment: A big, tall strong 6-foot-4 left-handed pitcher. Another arm-strength guy, a high school kid so he needs some time. We think he's the kind of strength and body type that's going to get a lot better.
150. B.J. LaMura, RHP, Clemson
Laumann's comment: He was a starter at Clemson. They kind of used him in two, three different roles. He's started, he's been in the middle, he's been a closer. Our guys saw him in all those roles, they felt he was best suited as somebody who can come in possibly as a setup guy and at times can be a closer. He's a good kid with a plus curveball.
180. Christopher Getz, SS, Grosse Pointe (Mich.) South H.S.
Laumann's comment: A high school shortstop, probably going to have to move to second base. Not a real strong kid right now but he does have good hands in the infield. He's also got good wrists at the plate. Size and strength is something that's going to dictate how good he becomes.
210. Micah Schnurstein, 3B, Basic (Nev.) H.S.
Laumann's comment: Schnurstein's a strong, barrel-chested kid with plus power potential. He played shortstop in high school, we feel like he's going to be a third baseman. He's got good hands, he's got arm strength and we wouldn't rule out the possibility of maybe moving him behind the plate.
240. Sean Tracey, RHP, California
Laumann's comment: Sean was the type of kid who early in the season probably got a lot more attention than he did late. Kind of piled a whole lot of innings on him during the season. As the season wore on it seems like he wore down a little bit. We kind of stuck with him, saw him again late, his velocity bounced back. There's a quality arm to stick in there and we think he's got a chance to be a starter.
270. Todd Deininger, RHP, Texas A&M
Laumann's comment: Todd's actually a local kid (from Joliet, Ill.). Pitched in a lot of different roles at Texas A&M. He was rated as one of the top pitchers in the Cape Cod League last summer, although he didn't log too many innings at Texas A&M this year. We kind of went back a little bit on what we saw last summer and ended up taking him on what we saw last year.
300. Orionny Lopez, RHP, Forest Hill (Fla.) H.S.
Laumann's comment: Was born, I believe, in the Dominican Republic. Played his high school baseball at Miami. Our scout down there in the Latin community (Jose Ortega) feels like he's probably got one of the better curveballs he's seen in a number of years. We've gone ahead and taken his recommendation in the past and he's done very well with them. Another arm with a plus pitch.
330. Samuel Herring, 1B-OF, Georgia Southern
Laumann's comment: A left-handed power bat. Listed as a first baseman, our scouts saw him recently at a tournament and he played the outfield and hit a long home run. This is a guy who's a power guy we're just going to plug in on one of the corners and see how far his bat takes him.
Jayson Ruhlman, LHP, L'Anse Creuse (Mich.) North H.S.
Laumann's comment: This is a pure projection guy. Our scouts in the Michigan area saw him throw very well. A loose arm guy, he's not a big guy but he does everything very easy. He's a guy we're going to have to hope grows an inch or two and gains 10 or 15 pounds. He's a ways away but he's a guy we're going to try and sign.
390. Demetrius Banks, LHP, Chattahoochee Valley, C.C.
Laumann's comment: He's a kid that is probably a draft-and-follow. We give our scouts the opportunity to give us a gut feel, meaning a guy who is a lesser-type caliber guy who they feel may develop quickly. Warren Hughes, our scout in Alabama, took a young left-handed pitcher from down in his area, Corwin Malone. We've had some success with the guys we've drafted so this is a guy he said he wanted us to get so we got him for him.
420. Christian Madson, RHP, Bloomingdale H.S.
Laumann's comment: A big strong right-handed pitcher. This kid was up to 95 (mph) this year. This is a young man who has stated his intentions of possibly going to a four-year school. We believe he was a little disappointed to where he fell in the draft; he felt he was going to be a first-three pick. We're going to monitor his progress over the summer and see if he's perhaps willing to reconsider starting pro ball vs. going to college and he hopes we'll reconsider to try and get him done more so than you would normally try to get a 14th-round pick done.
450. Adam Larson, RHP, Middle Tennessee State
Laumann's comment: A big strong right-hander with a plus fastball. At this stage in the draft you obviously don't get a pitcher or a player that has all the tools but this guy has size, strength and a plus fastball. We feel like we'll just go ahead and put him out there and see how far his fastball takes him and hope that they can develop a second or third pitch for him.
480. Daniel Haigwood, LHP, Midland (Ark.) H.S.
Laumann's comment: I actually got to see him, I usually don't see guys this deep into the draft. It was at a workout at Iowa prior to the draft in the middle of May. A left-hander, has some deception. Not a power guy, he was 85-88 mph. but my eyes told me he was throwing harder because the hitters weren't getting good swings. A kid that we thought was probably going to be a tough sign. We thought we'd watch during the summer, has stated his intentions to us that he may be willing to listen to what we'd like to talk to him about.
510. Brandon McCarthy, RHP, Lamar Community College
Laumann's comment: This is a draft-and-follow guy. A tall, thin kid with good arm action. We feel like he's going to develop. Whether or not he's ready to go out and pitch in pro ball right now is a question. Certainly is a starter-up kit for a guy that can be a pretty good pitcher in the future.
540. Shane Scoville, C, South Alabama
Laumann's comment: As is our custom we took an awful lot of pitchers. In this part of the draft you don't necessarily expect to get a prospect but this kid, because of his defensive ability, we think will have a chance to catch some of these young pitchers. Because of what he can do behind the plate everybody's looking for a quality receiver, who knows how far that takes you?
570. Paul Keck, C, Granada (Calif.) H.S.
Laumann's comment: This is a draft-and-follow. We evaluated him as a little bit better pick than this. Has also stated his intention to go to a four-year school. What we'd like to do is watch his progress during the summer and possibly go ahead and take a look at him then and see if he's made enough improvement to try and sign him before he goes to school.
600. Boone Logan, LHP, O'Connor (Texas) H.S.
Laumann's comment: Tall, thin left-handed pitcher from the San Antonio area. Loose arm, 6-foot-5, left-handed and it's been our history to take as many 6-foot-5 loose lefties as you can take and hope you come up with something.
630. Seth Morris, CF, Kentucky
Laumann's comment: A kid out of the Cincinnati area, played center field at Kentucky. More suited to play a corner, possibly even third base. Power guy. Hit and miss, struggles a little bit with the curveball. Can run for a big guy, is a strong kid. A good guy to plug in the middle of a lineup with one of our minor-league clubs and if he learns to hit a breaking ball he's got a chance to move.
660. Eric Keefner, 1B-3B, Mesa Community College
Laumann's comment: Big, strong kid out of the Chicagoland area (attended De La Salle H.S.). Went to Arizona State to play football, had some injuries. Went to Mesa J.C. to play baseball. We happened to get a chance to scout him in the last week or so. Not in baseball condition right now. However, he's a big strong kid with power and our scout in the area, Nathan Durst, has done an excellent job to keep us in touch with him. If we can get him back into the condition he was in as a high school senior we may have got something pretty good here in the 22nd round.

Torre being cautious with Ethier's ankle
Right fielder likely to miss weekend series with Marlins
MIAMI -- Andre Ethier is likely to miss the entire weekend series with the Marlins while healing from a turned ankle, manager Joe Torre said after Friday night's 7-3 win.
"He hit in the cage before the game and felt better, but he has to go to the outfield, and that's tough," said Torre. "He wasn't available today, my guess is he probably won't be through the weekend."
Ethier missed a second start on Friday night because of the ankle injury, which he sustained in Wednesday night's game in Pittsburgh stepping on the first-base bag while returning on a pickoff attempt by pitcher Ross Ohlendorf. Torre said that pinch-hitting was a possibility.
Ethier continues to receive treatment from team trainers and was put through some agility drills in the outfield before batting practice on Friday. He was given a cold compression unit to take back to his hotel so he could continue therapy overnight.
"He's not comfortable yet," Torre said before the game. "As soon as we feel it's safe. [we'll] put him in there, but the last thing we want to do is send him in there and all of a sudden we lose him. Right now we're not sure. It's something to pay attention to. I'm sure just running out to right field eight or nine times a game would take its toll. The swelling is about the same."
Torre had Reed Johnson replace Ethier in right field, batting second, with James Loney third and Matt Kemp fifth. Playing left field on Thursday, Johnson had three hits (two infield hits).

Sophomore guard Thomas Brown scored a career-high 28 points and the
Concord University men's basketball team led top-ranked West Liberty
University after one half of play Saturday at the Carter Center, but
were unable to complete the upset as the Hilltoppers pulled away in the
second half for a 101-81 win.
CU falls to 9-5 overall and 5-5 in the West Virginia Intercollegiate
Athletic Conference play with the loss. West Liberty improves to 16-1
overall and 10-1 in the league play with the win.
Concord handled West Liberty's vaunted press relatively well, committing
just 16 turnovers which are the third-fewest miscues that the
Hilltoppers have forced this season. Collectively, the Mountain Lions
shot 43.1 percent (22-for-51) from the field and 50 percent (6-for-12)
from the foul line.
The Mountain Lions were extremely effective at getting to the foul line
Saturday, forcing West Liberty to commit 28 fouls which translated to 39
free throw attempts for CU. The Maroon and Gray made 31 of the
Brown's 28 points came off of a 7-for-11 shooting performance from the
field, including a 3-for-5 effort from three-point range, as well as a
11-of-12 effort from the free throw line. Brown, whose scoring total was
a team season-high, supplemented his scoring with three assists and a
game-high four steals.
Senior forward Damien Tunstalle also enjoyed a 3-for-5 day from behind
the three-point line that helped him to a 15-point game. Sophomore
forward Jordan Davis and freshman guard Cam Shannon, who made his first
collegiate start, chipped in nine and eight points apiece.
Junior forward Nick Ruffin came off the bench to collect a team-high six
rebounds and lead all CU reserves with seven points. Ruffin and
sophomore guard Paul Byrd both tallied two blocks.
West Liberty, which shot 56.9 percent from the field Saturday,
controlled play early on and found itself with a seemingly safe
12-point, 34-22, lead with 6:27 to play in the opening half. However,
Concord fought back, combining stellar free throw shooting and a
blitzkrieg of three-pointers in the half's final minutes to end the
period on a 23-8 run to take a 45-42 lead into halftime.
In the final six minutes of the half, CU connected on 8-of-10 foul shots
and three three-pointers with an electrifying performance by Brown in
the period's waning minutes leading the way. Brown scored 13 points,
passed out two assists and made a pair of steals in the time span. He
capped the performance off with a pair of three-pointers in the final
minute of action.
The Mountain Lions stayed close with West Liberty through the opening
five minutes of the second half, but a 13-9 spurt out of the break gave
the Hilltoppers a 55-54 lead that they would not relinquish. WLU hit 59
percent (23-for-39) of its field goal attempts in the second period and
extended its lead to as many as 22 points en route to the 101-81 win.
Five players scored in double figures for West Liberty with Alex Falk's
22 points leading the way. CJ Hester added a double-double of 18 points
and 11 rebounds for WLU.
Concord will be back in action 4:00 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 26 at Seton Hill in a WVIAC matchup.

Ramen (ラーメン) is a dish of noodles served in broth that originated in China but has a Japanese twist to suit their taste. The secret of ramen is in its broth which is often a secret blend of meat (beef, pork, and chicken), vegetables, and fruits that are cooked for lengthy periods of time. The dish is often garnished with toppings such as sliced pork (チャーシュー, char siu pork), dried seaweed (海苔, nori), kamaboko, bean sprouts, green onions. Almost every locality or prefecture in Japan has its own original variation of ramen, from the tonkotsu ramen of Kyushu to the miso ramen of Hokkaido.
Japan has become the world leader in the toilet industry refining this essential facility with high-tech functions and ecological innovations.
Overview of Himeji Castle
The Inland Sea, formerly known as the Seto Inland Sea (瀬戸内海 or Seto Naikai) is the body of water separating three of the main islands of Japan; Honshu, Kyushu, and Shikoku. In addition to connecting Osaka Bay and providing a transportation link via sea in the Kansai region, the Inland Sea also serves as an international waterway connecting the Sea of Japan with the Pacific Ocean. 3000 islands are located within the sea including Awajishima, Itsukushima (also known as Miyajima), Shiwaku Islands, and Shodoshima. Three series of bridges (Akashi-Kaikyo, Great Seto, Setouchi Shimanami Kaido Express) collectively known as the Honshu-Shikoku Bridge Project connect Honshu and Shikoku.
This short video highlights cycling the area via a route along the Shimanami Kaido.
The Popular Tokyo English Bus Tour conducts tours throughout Tokyo with english speaking guides.
Tokyo is a metropolis of high rise skyscrapers above ground. But little do many realize the vast underground world that exists below the city. Underground shopping arcades and the subway are just one aspect. There are also underground storehouses which contain emergency supplies in the event of a disaster. The National Diet Library is also built mostly underground (4 floors above, 8 floors below) in order to store the ever growing collection of books. A huge network of tunnels also run under the cities roadways which helps to consolidate the various utilities and to help protect them in case of a major earthquake.
Japanese rice also known as japonica is of the short-grain variety. Several varieties exist including brown rice (genmai), polished white rice, and mochigome which is used for making mochi. A byproduct of the polishing process is rice bran (komenuka) which is often used in pickling or reused as fertilizer. Rice in Japan is often cooked in a rice cooker. The rice is first washed until the water becomes clear to remove the coating (in the past, this used to be a form of talc to help keep bugs away but today, the powder is often how rice is fortified with nutrients). Leaving this powder will often result in cooked rice that has a pasty consistency. Before cooking, it is usually soaked in water for a period of time (between 30 minutes to an hour). The soaking process allows water to penetrate into the kernel and allow for more even cooking during the steaming process. When prepared properly (rice cookers do the boiling and then steaming process all automatically), the cooked rice has a sticky texture.
Yakushima (屋久島) is an island located south of Kyushu in Kagoshima Prefecture. The island is known for being powered by water since over 50% of its electricity is via hydroelectric. The surplus power has been used in the production of hydrogen gas as part of an experiment by Kagoshima University. Yakushima has also been a test site for Honda's hydrogen fuel cell vehicle research. While there are no hydrogen cars on the island, there are a few electric cars that are run by the municipality.

Miso (味噌) is produced by fermenting rice, barley and/or soybeans, with salt and the fungus kōjikin (麹菌). This results in a thick paste used for pickling vegetables or meats, and is also mixed with dashi soup stock to serve as miso soup (味噌汁, misoshiru). Miso is high in protein and rich in vitamins and minerals. Miso is considered a staple in Japanese cooking and it is alo gaining in popularity worldwide.

By SAMANTHA MANNING 6 News Reporter
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - A proposed bill in Tennessee would stop students from being punished by school administrators if it's found that the student did not start the physical fight, but instead was acting in self-defense.
Some parents and bullying victims said the bill has been needed for years.
Maryville resident John Glidewell attended Halls Middle School in 1973 but said the bullying problem then is just as serious as it is today.
Glidewell said that when he was 13 years old; another student had been bullying him for years and even physically attacked him until one day he finally fought back.
"The bullying needs to stop," Glidewell said. "I hit him in the mouth and, not purposely, I broke his tooth."
As a result, Glidewell said he was suspended even though it was the other boy who started the fight.
The proposed bill would protect students in similar situations from facing any penalties with the school if it was in fact self-defense.
The bill applies to students who feel they are in imminent danger and don't take the first swing.
Glidewell now has two young daughters and said he doesn't want them to face the same problem.
"It needs to be addressed to the person who's doing it, not the victim," Glidewell said.
The bill does not address disputes when students are verbally attacked, only physical ones.
Knoxville resident Wanda Russell's grandson, who is in her custody, was suspended from Central High School about two years ago after getting into a fight with another student.
Russell said she felt his side was never fairly heard.
She said while the bill is a step in the right direction, she wants to see more done to prevent bullying before it gets to the point where a student needs to turn to violence as the only means of defense.
"I just feel there needs to be more work done, more preventative action, more conflict classes being taught," Russell said.
The bill is co-sponsored by Rep. Terri Weaver, who said the issue was addressed to her by the Professional Educators of Tennessee.
Weaver said the goal is to incorporate common sense into school practices and for principals to use their own judgment when punishing students involved in fights.
"As adults, when we're outside of the school our natural instinct is to defend ourselves and protect ourselves and I don't believe it should be any different inside a school," Weaver said.
Knox County Schools' policy for fighting on school grounds is that the punishment is determined by the principal who considers the circumstances surrounding the incident when deciding on disciplinary actions.

Lake Erie College to Host Free Community Concert
[Painesville, OH] Morley Music Building will come alive Saturday, May 21 at 5:00 p.m. during a free, community recital featuring selections on the majestic Skinner Organ.
The concert is presented by Cleveland Institute of Music students Scott Hayes, from Columbus, and John Alexander, of Greensboro, NC., who are fulfilling performance requirements to earn their Master of Music Performance and Professional Studies degrees, respectively.
The recital holds special meaning for Hayes, who from 2004 through 2006, worked with the Muller Pipe Organ Company as a member of the team that restored the College's Skinner Organ, originally built in 1927.
"I'm excited to have the opportunity to present a variety of compositions from many time periods to showcase the tonal range of the Skinner. We'll present works that span from serious and solemn to vibrant and energetic. The Skinner Organ is nothing like you would ever hear in a church setting," said Hayes.
Hayes will present the Music of Langlais, Buxtehude, Bach, Franck, Dupré and Sowerby followed by Alexander featuring the music of Bruhns, de Grigny, Howells, Widor, and Liszt.
Morley Music Building is located on the Lake Erie College campus, 391 W. Washington Street, Painesville. Tickets are not required; doors open at 4:30 p.m.

The Tampa Bay Lightning opened their second-to-last homestand of the season on Saturday night, but the outcome was certainly not to be a crowd pleaser.
The Tampa Bay Lightning played for the last time in Washington this season. Were they able to win and leap over them in the Eastern Conference standings?
Despite being a seller at the trading deadline, dealing with key injuries, and having five players out with a wicked flu, the Tampa Bay Lightning remain in the playoff chase.

PHOENIX (AP) -- Arizona State Treasurer Doug Ducey, who is running for governor, says a bill allowing business owners to refuse to serve gays by citing their religious beliefs should be vetoed.
The Republican said Saturday that he would try to create some kind of consensus legislation to protect religious liberty.
Several Republican gubernatorial candidates have already weighed in on Senate Bill 1062.
Secretary of State Bennett and Mesa Mayor Scott Smith said Friday they don't support it. Bennett called it unnecessary and divisive and Smith said it has the potential to negatively affect basic rights, including freedom of religion.
Attorney Christine Jones says 1062 should be withdrawn to avoid damaging the state's reputation and economic growth.
Candidates Andrew Thomas and Frank Riggs didn't send statements.
Sen. Al Melvin voted for the bill.

How's Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn doing on the Buck-O-Meter?
By Richard Danielson, Angie Drobnic Holan
Published on Monday, March 12th, 2012 at 5:38 p.m.
Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn's one-year anniversary in office arrives April 1, so we'll be reviewing his campaign promises over the next few weeks to see how he's dong.
Positive action toward his goals merits a "Promise Kept" or an "In the Works" rating. Lack of action could get a "Stalled" rating or even a "Promise Broken."
We recently examined some of Buckhorn's promises on policing and crime.
In the case of one campaign pledge -- start an incentive program to encourage police to live in the city -- we found Buckhorn has come up short. No housing program has yet been announced; read more details here.
In other areas, though, Buckhorn has made positive progress. We gave him positive ratings on the following promises:
- Maintain the size of the police force
- Maintain pension benefits for police
- Support the Step Plan for police pay increases
- Continue allowing police to take their police cars home
Click the links for the official ratings and complete sources.

We need more dedicated traffic cars out on the motorways as a detterent to these irresponsible few and to catch and prosecute them were appropriate.
I remind people that these are not accidents, babies and toddlers have accidents. With these incidents there is always a cause and that cause is usually a driver!

I think it's time they increased the lanes from two to three all along the motorway. The accidents generally seem to occur where the lanes go from three to two.

Done 600 miles on motorways the last few days. Most drive ok but a significant minority can't drive properly. Leave a safe distance and drivers undertake and take your safe gap forcing you to brake. Some are weaver birds constantly undertaking then squeezing into gaps. Some drive so close behind you at speed. If you brake as traffic in front slows they almost hit you. Watch a line of traffic in front and lines of cars have their brake lights on regularly because they are all driving too close and constantly "on the edge." Then-surprise-after 20 miles they are about 100 yards in front of you-what do they do with the 10 seconds saved?

Steven S . . you are correct in supposing that you see very few, if any, Police Motorway patrol cars nowadays . . . BUT . . . . . did you know that on the Lancashire and Greater Manchester motorway systems there are, at any given times, at least FOUR unmarked patrol cars with superb video and surveillance systems on board ?

Democrats may stand in Obama's way on gun measuresBy ERICA WERNER
The Associated Press | January 27,2013WASHINGTON As the Senate prepares to begin debating new gun control measures, some of President Barack Obamas fellow Democrats are poised to frustrate his efforts to enact the most sweeping limits on weapons in decades.
These Democrats from largely rural states with strong gun cultures view Obamas proposals warily and have not committed to supporting them. The lawmakers concerns could stand in the way of strong legislation before a single Republican gets a chance to vote no.
Theres a core group of Democratic senators, most but not all from the West, who represent states with a higher-than-average rate of gun ownership but an equally strong desire to feel their kids are safe, said Mark Glaze, director of Mayors Against Illegal Guns.
Theyre having hard but good conversations with people back home to identify the middle-ground solutions that respect the Second Amendment but make it harder for dangerous people to get their hands on guns.
All eyes are on a core group of these Democrats, including Sens. Max Baucus of Montana, Mark Begich of Alaska and Mark Pryor of Arkansas, who are up for re-election in 2014.
The Senate Judiciary Committee begins hearings Wednesday.
Interest groups, lobbyists, lawmakers, crime victims and others with a stake in the outcome will be watching these senators closely for signals about what measures they might support. The answers will say a lot about what, if anything, Congress can pass in the wake of the shootings of 20 school children and six adults at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn., last month.
At issue are Obamas proposals to ban assault weapons, limit ammunition magazines, crack down on trafficking and require universal background checks. Leading the charge against those ideas is the National Rifle Association. The group wields enormous power to rally public sentiment and is a particular threat to Democrats in pro-gun states who face re-election.
The political concerns of Democrats create problems for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., who has his own history with the NRA.
The powerful gun lobby endorsed him in previous elections, but stayed neutral in his most recent race, in 2010. Even before Obama announced the gun proposals this month, Reid told a Nevada PBS station that an assault weapons ban would have a hard time getting through Congress. That comment irked Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., author of such a ban.
Clearly it wasnt helpful, she said this past week in reintroducing her measure. But Feinsteins original assault weapons ban was a stern political lesson for Reid and other Democrats. Its passage as part of President Bill Clintons crime bill in 1994 was blamed for Democratic election losses that year after the NRA campaigned against lawmakers who supported the legislation. When the assault weapons ban came up for renewal in 2004, Congress, under pressure from the NRA, refused to extend it.
Reid has pledged action on gun measures. This is an issue were not going to run from, he said. But hes under pressure from all sides.
Some major pieces of legislation are shepherded by the Senate leadership to the Senate floor. But Reid is promising that the gun bills will go through the Senate Judiciary Committee, whose chairman is Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., a gun owner and Second Amendment supporter.
Reid also is promising an open amendment process, potentially a lengthy endeavor. Those signals have some gun control activists concerned that the process will go so slowly that it will grind to a halt without action. Some question whether thats just the outcome desired by some moderate Democrats.
Im concerned just because Harry Reid has a mixed record on these things and we want him to be a champion, said Josh Horwitz, executive director of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence.
On the other side, the NRA, known for rewarding friends and punishing enemies, promises it will be closely watching Reid, too.
Hes going to be torn and a lot of people are going to be torn, particularly Democrats, but I think as the debate goes on hell do more good than bad from our perspective, said David Keene, NRA president. All this stuff has been debated before and once you get into a debate and a discussion and say will this do anything to protect children, to prevent another Newtown, I think the answer is going to come out `no.
Baucus, Begich, Pryor and others have been cautious in their comments on Obamas gun proposals.
Baucus called for a thoughtful debate. Begich told his home state Fairbanks Daily News-Miner that passage of any element of the package was a long haul. ... There are some of us who just fundamentally believe in a Second Amendment right. Pryor has told Arkansas media that efforts on gun safety should start with enforcing existing laws.
Another Democrat closely watching the issue is Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, known for a 2010 campaign ad where he fired a rifle shot though a copy of Democratic-written climate change legislation.
Manchin recently told a West Virginia radio station that hes working on legislation to require background checks on most gun purchases. Details werent clear but thats the area where advocates are most hopeful of finding a solution that could get through the Senate and possibly even the Republican-controlled House.
The NRA opposes legislation mandating universal background checks and disputes gun control groups claims that 40 percent of purchases happen without such checks. NRA officials question whether background checks could be done effectively in a way that makes a difference and doesnt disrupt legitimate sales.
The NRAs executive vice president, Wayne LaPierre, is to testify Wednesday before Leahys committee.
Democrats, especially those from gun-rights states, will be weighing whether to side with the NRA or follow the president, or how best to split the difference.
Were a Second-Amendment state. I support the rights of sportsmen and target shooters and collectors to own firearms. Its an important part of our culture and tradition, Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., said in an interview. But I just hear theres such grave concern given the experiences weve had with Aurora, Columbine ... people all over Colorado want to prevent these massacres.MORE IN This Just InTODAY'S WEATHER MINUTE: Researchers studying bones of long extinct gigantic cattle, the aurochs, recovered from a bog in Amesbury, Wiltshire, and tools used to kill and butcher them,declare that place the oldest human settlement in Britain. 0Rutland Herald content editor Rich Alcott shares local weather information and easily digestible...

The Republic of Seychelles, an island country spanning more than a hundred islands in the Indian Ocean, is known for its almost non-existent levels of crime, high standard of living, and, of course, its breathtaking beauty.
Please find some of the more prominent locations on the islands below:
Mahé, named so after a prominent governor of Mauritius, is by far the largest island in the Republic. The capital of the Republic, Victoria, is located on the island, and as such, it has become the home to the international airport, numerous resorts, hotels and casinos.
Victoria Clock Tower
The clock tower, modeled after the Vauxhall Clock Tower of London, had been built as a memorial for the late Queen Victoria, honoring the longest rule -- 64 years -- by an English sovereign.
The Victoria Museum of Natural History
The Victoria Museum of Natural History allows its visitors to take a step back in time into the days of when buccaneers roamed the Indies, featuring displays flora and fauna of the islands, a 16th century shipwreck, and, amongst other things, the original "Stone of Possession" via which France claimed their right to the islands in 1756.
Botanical Garden
The garden is close to Victoria's town centre and covers six hectares of land. It is the home to over five hundred different species of exotic and native plants and a large number of birds, insects, reptiles and fish.
