CSS Hunley
A team of scientists from the University of Tennessee, Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Y12 National Security Complex left Sunday to inspect the CSS Hunley, a Confederate submarine, to see if they can help unravel the mysteries of the Civil War submarine that sank off the Charleston, S.C., shore 142 years ago.
The local scientists' involvement has grown out of the relationship between UT and best-selling author Patricia Cornwell.
A high school world religions course
Modesto, California has the only school district in the country where students are required to take - and pass - a course on world religions.
Johansen High School in Modesto, California, sounds like any other, until the sacred Hindu sound - "ommmmmm" - vibrates from history teacher Yvonne Taylor's classroom. Today, she's talking about Hindu ideas of the cycle of death and rebirth. She teaches a nine-week course for ninth graders on the fundamental beliefs of major world religions. This nine-week course for ninth graders teaches the fundamental beliefs of Christians, Muslims and Confucianists, as well as Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs and Jews - all tied in with the history of religious liberty in the United States.

Geronimo
Descendants of the Apache chief, Geronimo, have announced a lawsuit to reclaim the remains of the famous Indian leader from a U.S. military burial site as well from the reportedly hidden tomb of a secret Yale University society.
The lawsuit, filed in U.S. federal court this week, marks the 100th anniversary of the Apache leader's death during the Indian wars. The suit, filed by 20 of Geronimo's blood relatives, names U.S. President Barack Obama and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates among its defendants saying that they are responsible for keeping Geronimo's remains at an army base in Fort Sill, Oklahoma.

Chocolate
Chocolate is as big a part of American culture as baseball and apple pie. But its roots run much deeper.
Made from the seed of the tropical cacao tree, chocolate dates back at least 3,000 years to the ancient civilizations of Central and South America, where the cacao tree is native. The Aztec people valued the tree's cocoa beans so much, they used them as currency.
In what is now Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, in the southwestern United States, new archaeological evidence shows that people were eating chocolate here more than 1,000 years ago.
