東京株、午前終値は104円安の1万0055円 前日大幅高の反動で
20日の東京株式市場は大幅反落している。日経平均株価の午前終値は、前日比104円91銭安の1万0055円49銭。 日経平均株価で237円高となった前日の株価大幅上昇の反動で、利益確定売りが優勢となった。前日のニューヨーク株式市場のダウ工業株30種平均が98ドル下げたことも影響した。日銀の金融政策決定会合の結果発表を待つ様子見ムードもあった。 序盤に下げ幅を44円まで縮めて1万0100円台を回復したが、その後は値下がり基調が続き、下げ幅は100円を超えた。 東証株価指数(TOPIX)の午前終値は、前日比2.77ポイント安の836.57。出来高は概算で17億4673万株。売買代金は8988億円と旺盛な取引が続いている。東証1部銘柄の騰落は値上がり634、値下がり890、変わらず163。 売買代金上位は三菱UFJ、野村ホールディングス、シャープ、みずほFG、三井住友FGまでが200億円超。さらに日産自動車、トヨタ自動車、キヤノンと続いている。 前日、人気ソフト次回作の発売延期により業績大幅下方修正を発表したカプコンは前日比9.6%安まで下げ幅を縮めたが、午前終値段階まで値下がり率トップが続いた。

日体大、掟破りの荒療治で30年ぶり10度目の頂点 箱根駅伝
65年連続出場していた日体大は、実に30年ぶり10度目の栄冠をつかんだ。
ゴール直前、ユニホームに染め抜かれた「日本体育大学」の文字を突き出したアンカー谷永雄一(4年)。「強い日体大がここにいるんだぞ、と見せたかった」と誇らしげだった。前回は19位。予選会からの総合優勝は、1997年の神奈川大以来16年ぶり2度目の快挙である。
前日の往路は1~3年だけの若い構成で優勝。しかし、復路では4年が好走した。10区の谷永に加えて7区の高田翔二、8区の高柳祐也と全員が区間2位の安定した走りで首位を守った。古豪復活を成し遂げた背景には、体育会の“鉄のおきて”とされる年功序列を覆した荒療治があった。
惨敗に終わった1年前の大会直後、別府健至監督(46)は主将を新3年の服部翔大に任せることを決めたのだ。
これに4年が反発。埼玉栄高の1学年先輩でもある高柳は「悔しいし、恥ずかしいし、納得できないと監督に直談判に行った。でも、お前たちには力不足だといわれて」と振り返る。
実は、服部の父・重夫さんが前月に肺がんで死去。その事実を伏せたまま、服部は悲しい表情も見せずに1区で2位と責任を果たした。別府監督から伝え聞いた高柳は、打ちひしがれたという。
「自分たちのことばかり考えていた。恥ずかしくて…」
その後、4年だけのミーティングを開催。「俺たちが周りを見返すには、結果で服部を支えて存在感を示すしかない」と年下の主将の指示に従うと決めた。
最上級生の意識改革なしには、復活はなかったのかもしれない。別府監督は「3年のキャプテンを4年がしっかり支えて、この1年本当に頑張ってきた」とねぎらった。
また高校駅伝の伝統校・西脇工の前監督で、昨年4月から招かれている渡辺公二特別強化委員長(74)も「心をつないだ勝利だった」と称賛した。
縦の関係が重視される体育会にあって、上下の逆転はチームを揺るがしかねない決断だったはず。しかし、このショック療法こそが名門をひとつにまとめ上げるのに役だったのだ。【関連記事】 寮食堂に自戒の「たすき」…日体大を復活させた改善策 箱根駅伝 震災で亡くなった姉に「いい報告ができる」 箱根駅伝で区間賞 8区で幻の区間賞 巻き返しを誓う中大の永井 箱根駅伝 左右に蛇行も…タスキつなぎ7位 明大監督「よく走ってくれた」 「山の星」が最優秀選手 箱根駅伝

【COP18特集】途上国へ環境技術輸出の好機
原発の再稼働が進まず、温室効果ガス排出量の「25%削減」が困難な中、日本政府や産業界は途上国に日本の環境技術を提供し、その技術で達成できる温室効果ガスの削減量を日本の削減分とみなす独自のシステム「2国間オフセット・クレジット制度」の普及を狙っている。 日本は2度の石油危機を経て世界で最も先進的な省エネ・環境技術を確立し、「最小限のエネルギー消費で最大限の経済発展を実現している」(経団連環境安全委員会の手塚宏之氏)。政府は、日本の強みである環境技術を途上国に提供することで、CO2削減と経済成長を両立させたい考え。13年度の同制度運用開始を目指し、インドネシア、ベトナム、モンゴルなど11カ国と協議している。 産業界も政府と連携して省エネ技術の普及を推進する。渋滞を緩和する鉄道網の整備や発電効率の高い石炭火力発電、製鉄所における省エネ対策など計30カ国で実証実験を実施。同制度への適用を目指す。 一方で欧州連合(EU)は、先進国と途上国で温室効果ガスの排出枠(クレジット)を融通し合う制度「クリーン開発メカニズム(CDM)」を推進する。ただ、CDMには日本の技術があまり採用されていない。日本はCOP18で2国間オフセット制度のルール作りをするよう提案する方針だが、国際社会の理解を得られる可能性は低い。

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - The body of a woman, whose gang rape provoked protests and rare national debate about violence against women in India, arrived back in New Delhi on Sunday and was cremated at a private ceremony.
Scuffles broke out in central Delhi between police and protesters who say the government is doing too little to protect women. But the 2,000-strong rally was confined to a single area, unlike last week when protests raged up throughout the capital.
Riot police manned barricades along streets leading to India Gate war memorial - a focal point for demonstrators - and, at another gathering point - the centuries-old Jantar Mantar - protesters held banners reading "We want justice!" and "Capital punishment".
Most sex crimes in India go unreported, many offenders go unpunished, and the wheels of justice turn slowly, according to social activists, who say that successive governments have done little to ensure the safety of women.
The unidentified 23-year-old victim of the December 16 gang rape died of her injuries on Saturday, prompting promises of action from a government that has struggled to respond to public outrage.
The medical student had suffered brain injuries and massive internal injuries in the attack and died in hospital in Singapore where she had been taken for treatment.
She and a male friend had been returning home from the cinema, media reports say, when six men on a bus beat them with metal rods and repeatedly raped the woman. The friend survived.
New Delhi has the highest number of sex crimes among India's major cities, with a rape reported on average every 18 hours, police figures show. Reported rape cases rose by nearly 17 percent between 2007 and 2011, according to government data.
Six suspects were charged with murder after her death and face the death penalty if convicted.
In Kolkata, one of India's four biggest cities, police said a man reported that his mother had been gang-raped and killed by a group of six men in a small town near the city on Saturday.
She was killed on her way home with her husband, a senior official said, and the attackers had thrown acid at the husband, raped and killed her, and dumped her body in a roadside pond.
Police declined to give any further details. One officer told Reuters no criminal investigation had yet been launched.
"MISOGYNY"
The leader of India's ruling Congress party, Sonia Gandhi, was seen arriving at the airport when the plane carrying the woman's body from Singapore landed and Prime Minister Mannmohan Singh's convoy was also there.
A Reuters correspondent saw family members who had been with her in Singapore take her body from the airport to their Delhi home in an ambulance with a police escort.
Her body was then taken to a crematorium and cremated. Media were kept away but a Reuters witness saw the woman's family, New Delhi's chief minister, Sheila Dikshit, and the junior home minister, R P N Singh, coming out of the crematorium.
The outcry over the attack caught the government off guard. It took a week for the prime minister to make a statement, infuriating many protesters. Last weekend they fought pitched battles with police.
Issues such as rape, dowry-related deaths and female infanticide rarely enter mainstream political discourse.
Analysts say the death of the woman dubbed "Amanat", an Urdu word meaning "treasure", by some Indian media could change that, though it is too early to say whether the protesters can sustain their momentum through to national elections due in 2014.
U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon added his voice to those demanding change, calling for "further steps and reforms to deter such crimes and bring perpetrators to justice".
Commentators and sociologists say the incident earlier this month has tapped into a deep well of frustration many Indians feel over what they see as weak governance and poor leadership on social issues.
Newspapers raised doubts about the commitment of both male politicians and the police to protecting women.
"Would the Indian political system and class have been so indifferent to the problem of sexual violence if half or even one-third of all legislators were women?" the Hindu newspaper asked.
The Indian Express said it was more complicated than realizing that the police force was understaffed and underpaid.
"It is geared towards dominating citizens rather than working for them, not to mention being open to influential interests," the newspaper said. "It reflects the misogyny around us, rather than actively fighting for the rights of citizens who happen to be female."

Duff & Phelps agrees to be bought for $665.5M
NEW YORK (AP) -- Financial advisory and investment banking firm Duff & Phelps said Sunday it agreed to be acquired for $665.5 million in cash by a group of private equity companies.
A group of funds managed by The Carlyle Group, Stone Point Capital LLC, Pictet & Cie and Edmond de Rothschild Group will pay $15.55 per share for the New York company, a 19 percent premium over the stock's closing price Friday of $13.05. Shares have traded between $11.36 and $16.50 in the past 52 weeks.
CEO Noah Gottdiener said the move was in the best interest of shareholders who will receive cash for their shares, and said it preserves the firm's independence.
The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2013, subject to regulatory and shareholder approval.
A "go-shop" period to solicit other offers will last until Feb. 8. The company will pay $6.65 million if it ends the agreement before March 8 in connection with a better offer.
Yemen: Al-Qaida offers bounty for US ambassador
SANAA, Yemen (AP) — Al-Qaida's branch in Yemen has offered to pay tens of thousands of dollars to anyone who kills the U.S. ambassador in Sanaa or an American soldier in the country.
An audio produced by the group's media arm, the al-Malahem Foundation, and posted on militant websites Saturday said it offered three kilograms of gold worth $160,000 for killing the ambassador, Gerald Feierstein.
The group said it will pay 5 million Yemeni riyals ($23,000) to anyone who kills an American soldier inside Yemen.
It said the offer is valid for six months.
The bounties were set to "inspire and encourage our Muslim nation for jihad," the statement said.
The U.S. Embassy in Sanaa did not respond to an Associated Press phone call asking for comment.
Washington considers al-Qaida in Yemen to be the group's most dangerous branch.
The group overran entire towns and villages last year by taking advantage of a security lapse during nationwide protests that eventually ousted the country's longtime ruler. Backed by the U.S. military experts based at a southern air base, Yemen's army was able to regain control of the southern region, but al-Qaida militants continue to launch deadly attacks on security forces that have killed hundreds.
In the capital, Sanaa, security officials said two gunmen on a motorbike shot and killed two intelligence officers early Sunday as they were leaving a downtown security facility. The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity according to regulations, said all intelligence and security officers have been instructed to take precautionary measures outside working hours.
The government blames al-Qaida for the killing of several senior military and intelligence officials this year mainly by gunmen on motorbikes.
The officials said security authorities in Sanaa have launched a campaign against motorcyclists suspected of involvement in these attacks or other crimes, arresting about 200 for questioning for violations, including driving motorcycles without license plates.
