Yes, impressive. Just one step further for the like of US, Indiana, Notre Dame former football player Manti Te'o from 'actualizing' his imaginary girlfriends.

Guam does have a main jail facility in the area of Hagnata. Its main stay-keep are sentenced from anywhere from days to (in my recollection) 15 years~. The facility has 12 X 6 rooms (the largest) that are crowded with up to (at least) 6 + inmates, depending on volume. There are at least a few cells - broken off from the main hold building - that are built into a hillside that are, in purpose, isolation areas. The entire facility is also a 'stop over' for those who are in an international extradition/deportation process (which, to be candid, is how I am familiar with it) (on a side note, it is also the same facility where Ferdinand (sp?) Marcos was held in his extradition process). The majority of those held are for drugs or theft. The overcrowding occurs, usually, on (traditional/US) holidays, when the facility acts as a holding place for party revelers who took their celebrations a bit too far.
The treatment - you have to mind your p's and q's among general (indigenous) facility population. The running of the facility seems to adhere to Guam custom and US law. The court is US staffed. The magistrate is US, it is a modern US court facility. Entry into the facility is a very scary and humiliating experience (perhaps outside US protocol).
I mentioned the deportation process ... if you are deported from Japan, this is where the plane will land.
If that is of any interest.
I would seriously doubt this perp will have any contact with the general population.

I am getting confused here. Are they continuing to 'book flights' in order to maintain reports of cancellations? I mean, this plane has been deemed not flight worthy since, what is it? January 15th? Are 'all' these cancellations from bookings before the blanket grounding of the plane? Further, confusion, is this not then indicative that prior to the use of the 787 there were not enough flights to cover these 100,XXX (pick a number) of alleged passengers?
I understand the airlines are not pleased, but this story, as I see it written, seems to be fudging the data - perhaps.

"New Komeito leader tells China Abe wants to improve ties".
Abe gets a new tie for his birthday but within a few days he takes it back to the shop. The salesperson at the shop asked him what was wrong with it he replied “One end is longer than the other end”.
bada-bing.

"Terror proof"? To its own people, I would hope. Thus, don't start it and/or don't build it.

Were the violent crimes of TEPCO et al given due consideration in the previous year? Or are those numbers 'not considered ledger worthy'?

X went "viral." I am sick of hearing this. Also when some media outlet states that X person "did not immediately return calls," as if whoever X is, should be there and at the ready of the media.
