Earthquake
I'm back in Japan after spending a bit of time in Canada. I'll throw up pictures soon.
In the meantime, today I felt my strongest earthquake yet. It was a 4.8 on the Richter scale, with the epi-centre right under Tokyo Bay. I haven't heard of any major damage or anything, so I guess all is well. The building I was doing a teaching course in really shook. It felt cool. I kind of liked it.
:)
Time for bed now, as it's 8:30pm and the jet lag has been making me feel tired since I woke up this morning.

In the wake of North Korea's first successful nuclear test, The Washington Post's PostGlobal and Oxford International Review are sponsoring exclusive blog responses to a question posed by former South Korean President and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Kim Dae-Jung:
Why do you think the current US Administration has refused direct negotiations with North Korea, despite North Korea's proposal to do so?
OIR posed this question to a panel of students from the United States and Asia gathered at Hong Kong University to participate in the Asia Institute for Political Economy, a program conducted by The Fund for American Studies. Click here to read their commentary, in light of recent events: http://blog.washingtonpost.com/postglobal/debate/korea/
Because of your interest in the region, you are being invited to join the conversation and pose questions to our panel. OIR and PostGlobal would love your input.
