Emperor Akihito, like his father before him, is a scientist with a passion for studying marine life. Although he was never able to pursue a doctorate in the field, Akihito has continued his studies and research throughout his life.
He's published extensively in ichthyology and genetics. Akihito's most recent article is titled "Speciation of two gobioid species, Pterogobius elapoides and Pterogobius zonoleucus revealed by multi-locus nuclear and mitochondrial DNA analyses." You can read an abstract here.

Since the ability to allow pro athletes sullies the games itself.
And
China needs to have more natural disasters and hopefully the next will be a major shift in the continent. as in, like atlantis, it just slips entirely under the sea.
Like daddy always said, "only good red is a dead red."
