WSU May Get More Expensive
This coming school year could get more expensive for students attending Washington State University. WSU may increase tuition 16 percent for in-state undergraduate students for the 2011-12 academic year.

The Board of Regents will be asked to approve that increase at a special meeting early next month. Sixteen percent is the amount recommended by the Legislature when it passed the state budget earlier this week. It would raise the annual tuition paid by a typical in-state undergraduate student to $9,374 a year.

Sushi Sakai in the Spokane Valley

If you haven't had a chance to try Sushi Sakai in the Spokane Valley, you should!  Being a avid sushi fan myself, I've had the opportunity to visit Sushi Sakai on multiple occasions.  The thing I enjoy the most about Sushi Sakai is the sushi has a very fresh, honest, feel and taste to it that you don't get at some "Bigger" restaurants.  Sushi Sakai is a Sushi/Sake Bar located at 11520 East Sprague Ave.  Hours are 11am to 9pm Tues-Wed, 11am to 10pm Thurs-Fri, 12pm to 10pm Sat, 12pm to 8pm Sun.  Rolls range from as little as $3.95 on up to $12.95.  What ever styl
