US envoy touts China ties
Publication Date : 02-09-2012
A strong partnership of the United States and China will benefit both countries and the entire Asia-Pacific region, said US Ambassador to China Gary Locke yesterday, calling for a way that the two countries can co-exist and cooperate without unhealthy competition or conflict.
Locke made the remarks at the opening ceremony of the three-day East-West centre's 15th biennial international alumni conference held at Peking University in Beijing.
At the conference themed "community building and leadership in the Asia-Pacific", Locke's speech got special attention as US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has begun a six-nation tour to Asia, which will include a stop in China next week.
Locke said conflict between a rising power and an established power is not inevitable, a point that has been made by both countries' leaders. "We can - we must - together forge a relationship, one based on mutual respect and mutual benefit".
"Both a strong United States and a strong China are good for the Asia-Pacific region, because geopolitics today cannot afford to be a zero-sum game," he said.
Locke called for more cooperation between the two counties in areas including trade, investment and people-to-people exchanges despite differences on some international issues and trade frictions.
"We welcome Chinese investors to come to the United States and to invest the same way other foreign investors do," said Locke, noting that China's investment into the US creates jobs, boosts US exports, and creates stronger economic and commercial ties.
Chinese direct investment in the US increased almost eightfold between 2005 and 2011 - from US$700 million to $5.4 billion - and is on a record pace so far in 2012, with $3.6 billion in deals completed in the first half of this year, according to official figures.
Locke also stressed the role of people-to-people exchanges, which "foster a mutual understanding between the two peoples and facilitates collaboration and cooperation in every field".
After streamlining the visa process, US consular officers in China have processed more than 1.1 million visa applications so far this fiscal year (October 2011- September 2012), a year-on-year increase of 42 per cent, with shorter wait times for visa appointments, Locke said.
The US will continue to propose the two countries issue reciprocal, five-year visas for business, tourism and study, said Locke.
Locke said much credit should be given to the East-West centre for building understanding between the US academic community and professionals from throughout the Asia-Pacific region, in China and elsewhere.
More than 4,000 research specialists, graduate students and professionals from China have participated in programmes of the EWC, based in Honolulu, Hawaii. It was established in 1960 by the US Congress to strengthen relations and understanding among the peoples and nations of the US, Asia and the Pacific. Since 1981, China Daily has established cooperation with the centre and sent about 120 journalists to study there.
Rick Brian Tsujimura, chairman of the EWC board of governors, told conference participants that "everybody here is an 'ambassador', the relationships forged between each of you are the keys to mutual understanding and help to solve to the struggle we each face in the world".
Zhang Xiuqin, director of the Department of International Cooperation and Exchanges of the Ministry of Education, said both countries agreed that education is the key field for people-to-people exchanges and the two governments have strengthened cooperation in this field.
"China is the largest developing country while the US is the largest developed country. We have different social systems, cultural tradition and we are in different development stage, so misunderstandings at some extends are inevitable," she said. "Only tolerance and understanding will bring mutual benefits and win-win cooperation".
About 300 people, most alumni of the East-West centre, gathered for the conference featuring about 75 substantive presentations and panel meetings on current regional topics including international relations, economics, environmental protections and other social issues.

Make Beer, Not War.
This is my wifes all time favorite beer.. She practically gets wet when it is released every year.. I am going to try to brew it up this weekend.. I would be curious if anyone else has ever tried to brew it and how it turned out... I will defnitely report unless someone beats me to it.
Tap 1- JubelAle Clone
Tap 2- Evening Bite Pale Ale
Tap 3- Twilight Clone
Tap 4- Dicks Danger Ale Clone
"Today I felt like burning some calories....So I found a fat kid and set him on fire"
That is pretty quick for this beer, which will definitely take some time to "simmer down" - I'll bet the batch you make now will be really good and balanced by about... March 2010.
Seriously, this will take a while to condition.
What kind of brewing timeline would you guys recommend for this beer? something like 2 weeks primary, 2 weeks 2ndary and 12 weeks in the bottle/keg?
Now my wife is gettin' all pissy because I told her that this beer may not be ready by Christmas.... damn.. Seriously though, I am strictly an ale guy (1.050 to 1.060 typically) and havent brewed many beers heavier than that..
But why so long an aging for this brew? How long do you guys age your pale ales before drinking?
The real issue with this particular recipe is the marrying of all of the hops - there are six different hop varieties in this beer, all competing for attention. You won't get the smoothness of the actual Jubelale until they've had time to sit down and get to know one another in the bottle/keg for a few weeks.
I know that when I had this year's Jubelale at the end of October at the Deschutes brewery, my thought at the time was, "Wow, this is going to be really good in December!" - Which, frankly, is when a Winter Warmer should be consumed!

I imagine the Lib Dems are extremely relieved that everyone seems to have forgotten about their leader's very telling comments on the NHS in this interview.
Especially just 6 months before the next election.

A couple of people have expressed some concerns about my recent post 'How we know what to rely upon'. Some queried the placement of different specialties and beliefs in the 'evidence hierarchy table'.
In two of these cases, 'Freudian psychodynamics' and 'the serotonin theory of depression' I removed them. After all the point of the post was to identify how ideas are validated, not to get caught up in debates about 'what goes where'. That wasn't my purpose. I may yet reclassify reincarnation for just that reason if the person who promised to send me robust evidence supporting it actually does so. For now, though it remains firmly in the 'nonsense' camp, which brings me to the point of this post.
Whenever I use the word 'nonsense' people become (in descending order of intensity) 'outraged', 'offended', 'irritated', 'narked' or just 'a bit miffed'. As a general rule I suspect that's because they haven't thought through just what the word 'nonsense' means.
Normally I wouldn't dream of basing my arguments upon semantics. It's usually a quite unwarranted equivocation to argue about the literal meaning of a word as though that somehow influences its perceived meaning in everyday, non-literal conversation. That's just a kind of linguistic pedantry that blindly favours form over meaning. But in this case I'll make an exception. That's because the literal meaning of the word 'nonsense' is such an accurate representation of its actual usage, even though most people never stop to think it through.
The word 'nonsense' consists of two contributory words:
Non (a negation);
Sense (the 5 mechanisms by which we experience the natural world) OR (reasonable, understandable, coherent, logical).
In everyday conversation people generally use one or the other of these meanings of 'sense' but in the rational, empirical world of scientific observation I'd argue that both are needed. In fact, I think they're mutually dependent.
Empiricism requires observable evidence of the external (not us) world. Evidence of the external world can only be observed through the 5 senses. Therefore in order to have a reason to believe something we need to be able to observe something that our beliefs, hypotheses and explanations can be based upon. If we can't sense a thing we can't demonstrate it and if we can't demonstrate it there's no reason to believe it. That doesn't necessarily mean it's not true – but we'd be foolish to believe in something we can neither test nor observe.
That's what the 20th century philosopher, Bertrand Russell was getting at when he claimed that there was a silver teapot orbitting the sun somewhere between the Earth and Mars. For all anyone knows, there might be but we'd be foolish to believe it without at least some observable, empirical evidence (beyond mere anecdote) to support it. And observable, empirical evidence means sensory input.
So – to sum up.
To 'sense' something means to observe.
To 'not sense' means to not observe.
We would be foolish to believe a claim without some observation, some reason to believe.
'Nonsense' then is the unobserved claim that we would do well to reject until and unless some observable, empirical evidence is available.
That's why I consigned claims like creationism, reincarnation, crystal healing and astrology to the nonsense camp. They lack empirical evidence to support their most basic explanations and we'd be foolish to accept them without it. They are the products of over-active imaginations that are much more concerned with spinning a good yard than with genuine, observable, painstaking, data collection.
You may not agree with my way of approaching the world but at least now, hopefully, you'll understand where I'm coming from.

Do you remember 'Mork and Mindy'?
I do. It was brilliantly funny back in the day. An unassuming little comedy series that launched (so far as I know) one of the most versatile and talented comic actors of a generation.
And now that actor is dead – by his own hand.
I've no idea why Robin Williams killed himself. In truth, I don't think any of us ever will have – not really. Without thinking the thoughts he thought and feeling the emotions he felt the best anyone could ever manage would be a superficial approximation of the truth.
But that doesn't stop the media from going wild (with the frenzied instincts of a pack of wolves who smell blood) at the thought of the money their printed speculations will bring. And it stinks.
Leave the poor guy alone.
Leave his memory alone.
Just stop it!
That's all folks!

Looks like the Tories are taking revenge on the police after their falling out over the plebgate controversy.
The Tory-led coalition government has decided that police officers who are disabled or injured in the line of duty should face a pay cut. Or the sack.
A report into changes in police officers' pay and conditions was completed way back in 2012. But now government ministers have suddenly decided to implement some of the more controversial changes recommended in the report – including this part:
The Disabled Police Association says injured and disabled officers will be 'substantially disadvantaged' by the changes:
Pay reforms: Disabled officers 'substantially disadvantaged'
As always – very little of this has been reported in the mainstream press.
Which is exactly what always happens whenever there is any news about how despicably the sick and disabled are treated by this government.

My thoughts exactly. The labour party was born out of a great tradition of fairness. New Labour betrayed that tradition but genuine, compassionate, mutually supportive socialism still remains. And it will rise again.

Dear Ed,
Yesterday you did something really dreadful, although I doubt you realise the full significance. In the same week that members of your party, the postal workers union, senior Labour MPs and thousands of voters on Merseyside were organising a campaign to reject The Sun newspaper being delivered unsolicited through their letter boxes, you posed, grinning, with the paper. The fact that you have apparently apologised to Steve Rotheram, MP for Liverpool Walton, indicates that you are perhaps a little more aware of your mistake than you were yesterday, but it doesn't even begin to touch on the real, underlying causes of this enormous error of judgement.
I don't need to go into the reasons why that campaign was taking place – you know the reasons why The Sun is rightly despised by the overwhelming majority of your own party. So any apology should be directed, not just to…

A Snowboarding video by Mpora - 6,177 views
From the same immaturity level that brought you Andrew Hardingham's part in Sandbox, Flavor Country and Time well wasted now brings you the film called "Throw your Panties". When asked why he wanted to make this film Andrew had this to say, "I like watching funny people say funny things and I also like snowboarding so why over saturate one or the other. I want to mix them both together in an overflowing martini glass and drink down that concoction and call it Throw your Panties." With riding and other bull shit from Dustin Craven, Tobias Karlsson, Andrew Hardingham, Ryan Hall, Dwain Wiebe, Ingemar Backman and Jonas Guinn. The film follows these riders for one year through Andrew's somewhat demented and very twisted perception of snowboarding. Just look at them shoes, i mean there just sitting there so why not try those shoes on. I know you'll love the fit. This is a must have for core shops that need something new, entertaining and energy charged. It's guaranteed to make you and anyone who watches it a little bit stupider. TYP is not for little kids.

From November 1- 30th, we have been celebrating Novel Writing Month which has seen many budding authors pen their first novel. Workshops have taken place across the UK designed to help authors find their potential.
I caught up with Sally Green to find out why she decided to write about something barely written about before, why she finds writing for YA a unique experience, and why she thinks that YA books never need a message.
The Hunger Games made it acceptable for boys to embrace a female perspective. In doing so it opened the floodgates to dystopians with female main characters and a broader readership base. As an aspiring YA author, I'm proud this is where the trend is gaining momentum. The new generation is showing us they can look past the gender roles we are trying to force upon them.
Writing is a solitary business so it's important to celebrate your book's birth into the world. The launch doesn't have to be a fanciful, costly affair, but if you want to spread the word wider than just family and friends, read on.

HARMANâs Studer Heads the AoIP Race with AES67 Integration via Digigram Interface
AMSTERDAM, The Netherlands â Delivering more versatility and speed than ever before, HARMANâs Studer is announcing AES67 integration for Infinity Core, which drives the companyâs flagship Vista X and Vista V digital audio consoles. This breakthrough will enable broadcasters to efficiently and cost-effectively deliver their Audio over IP (AoIP) requirements over the widest range of protocols available from a single manufacturer.
âAES67 is a standard for interoperability and Studer places a high priority on making sure itâs consoles are able to interface with as many suitable standards in the industry as possible,â said Keith Watson, Marketing Director, Soundcraft Studer. âWith the additional products and processing announcements we are making at IBC, we think Studer is now the âmost connectedâ digital broadcast console manufacturer in the marketâ.
AES67 compatibility makes Studerâs Infinity Core the first x86-based AoIP core, incorporating standard off-the-shelf IT components and a Linux operating system. Infinity Core also features a real-time mixer application for standard servers, while allowing distributed DSP processing on the customerâs platform. It also utilizes the Digigram LX-IP AES67 PCIe Sound Card to interface with real time AoIP networks.
âWe are really impressed by the new Studer Infinity Core which delivers 800+ audio channels with superb sonic quality and more than 5000 inputs and outputs,â said Philippe Delacroix, President and CEO at Digigram. âWe are proud to enable it for high channel count ultra-low latency AoIP conforming to the new AES67 interoperability standard. Our Digigram LX-IP PCIe Sound Card is based on a rock solid embedded design with 2 Gigabit ports allowing the exchange of as many as 128/128 channels from/to multiple AES67 AoIP streams with less than 1ms latency.â
With AES67 compatibility, Studer is now able to share I/O signals across its Vista and OnAir digital console ranges and over different audio networks. Moreover, this can all be done in real time with the lowest latency, enabling broadcast engineers to work on the fly, with no delays in workflow.

Big Al Downing
BiographyDowning is an interesting and overlooked figure in Rock'n'Roll history. A black, piano playing singer who is as at home with Rockabilly and country as he is with blues and R&B, Downing has a big, versatile voice and a seeming ability to channel the spirit of Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard. His material sounds consistently inspired, with tough, hard rocking arrangements and pounding piano. The closest comparison is really and amped up Smash Records era Charlie Rich.

LOUISVILLE, KY. — Pressure from Avian flu and the December poultry supply incident in China contributed to a 15% decline in income at Yum! Brands, Inc. during the second quarter.
For the quarter ended June 15, the company had income of $281 million, equal to 62c per share on the common stock, which compared with income of $331 million, or 71c per share, during the same quarter of the previous year. Sales for the quarter were $2,474 million, down 10% from $2,762 million.
"Second-quarter e.p.s. declined 16%, which was generally in line with our expectations," said David C. Novak, chairman and chief executive officer. "KFC sales and profits in China were significantly impacted by intense media surrounding Avian flu as well as the residual effect of the December poultry supply incident. The good news is that China sales are recovering as expected. The extensive media surrounding Avian flu in China has subsided and same-store sales at KFC are clearly improving.
"I'm pleased with the very strong performance at Pizza Hut casual dining, which delivered solid same-store sales growth as we continue to open new units at a record pace. For the total China Division, we remain on track to open at least 700 new units this year. This means we will have opened about 1,600 units over a two-year period. As KFC sales continue to recover, we expect to have solid momentum in China heading into 2014."
The China Division had an operating profit of $68 million in the quarter, down 63% from $182 million during the same quarter of the previous year. Sales were $1,429 million, down 7% from $1,535 million.
The United States Division posted operating profit of $173 million, up 4% from $166 million during the same quarter of the previous year. The division had sales of $510 million, down 19% from $630 million.

Renown Blogger Feminista Jones stops by Cruz Inc Radio
Who is Feminista Jones?
I think of myself as a post-modern, sex-positive, Black feminist woman. That is a mouthful, but it basically means that I'm multi-faceted, at least in my expression of myself and my embodiment of feminism. I exist in a new era of critical thinking and self-identification. I promote the positive aspects of ×sex, sexuality, and sexual liberation. I'm Black and my race/culture inform an enormous amount of my values and perspectives. I am a feminist and as such, I believe that men and women should be treated equally and granted equal access to resources such as education, employment, government, etc. I am a woman. My idea of womanhood and femininity is my own and I own it.

PG REPRODUCTIONS, Fine Art Prints on Demand, offers the very finest masterpiece reproductions, excellent gifts for all occasions. The why and wherefore of art reproductions: How are the arts in all its forms and fancies to make friends with the working multitude? National galleries and museums sheltering the best, or municipal ones sheltering the rest, are not much good to those passing through their corridors. For the first they rarely go near them; or if they do they stiffen themselves into another being as they stroll among the elegant halls to see the wonders. Perhaps they have had no introduction to the masterpieces through home, school, or church. Every phase of art has its judges; every artist his applauding clique. However...
