Will be in France for 14 days at the start of July. Likely to fly in from Hong Kong into Paris.
Am thinking of driving from Paris to Loire Valley then to Bordeaux and Provence if possible.
Likely to spend one night in Paris on arrival and 2/3 nights in Paris before heading back to Hong Kong. Just wondering if this is a realistic schedule with 3 / 4 days each in / on route to Loire Valley / Bordeaux / Provence.
Also would be great if any suggestions on routes and where to stay on the driving route.

Having been to all areas I would drop Bordeaux. If you are looking for lovely vineyards there are nicer, more scenic areas around Provence. Bordeaux itself is a nice city, but its far from your other locations and doesnt really have the wow factor - perhaps you are adding it because it is a wine region you have heard of? Unless you are a huge wine buff and want to spend your time visiting large estates by appt (and plan to buy $$$$ of wine) then I think your time would be better spent focusing on the 3 areas you have identified in 2 weeks.

I have to agree with jamikins. Drop Bordeaux. If you are going to be driving, I would suggest travelling via Burgundy as opposed to Bordeaux. Another wonderful wine area, and a good place to break the trip between the Loire and Provence. Look Beaune as a stopover. We love Burgundy. Lots to see in each different part. Our last time in Burgundy was spent in the Maconnais region. Great wine, lovely countryside, great food. Have a look at Burgundy.

rhon - totally agree - Burgundy is one of our favourite areas. To me it looks exactly like I pictured rural France!
Beaune makes a great stop along the way to Provence. -
Report Abuse
Yes jamikins, we have spent four weeks in different parts of Burgundy on our trips to France. We are Australian. Did not go there last trip because we were touring more western France. Definitely next time. It is such a lovely area to visit, and we love rural France. For us Burgundy ticks all the boxes - lovely countryside and villages, lots of history, great food and wine. Yes, I know that sounds like most of France, but Burgundy is special for us.

sweng - here's another vote for dropping Bordeaux.
I'm not so against it as the others [we spent some lovely days there a very long time ago] but for your plans, it's way off your route, and either the eastern Dordogne or Burgundy make more sense. -

I am not really against Bordeaux as such. I just think with the time the OP has and what he wants to do, Burgundy is a better fit. Hope he has a great trip.

all.thanks for the suggestions..we really like bordeaux wine which was why we wanted to go through there..so the current plan is paris (1), loire valley (4), burgundy (2), provence (4) and paris (2)..numbers in brackets represents nights..
any particular cities or towns in each area aside from beaume? saumur in loire? -

Dijon is a great place to visit and there are loads of charming villages around to stop in for wine tasting. I highly recommend a visit to the marches aux vins in Beaune for a tasting In their cellars

skweng - we really like Saumur. WE stayed there for 3 nights a few years ago, and on a more recent visit to the area, although we weren't staying there, we found ourselves gravitating to it. Saumur reds are very nice and there are lots of "caves" in the area [literarily - they are cut into the hillside]
another nice place which we have visited but not stayed in is Chinon. both would make good Loire bases. -

You don't need to go to Bordeaux to drink Bordeaux wines. You can find pretty much any kind of wine all over France. And regarding the mention of visiting estates, it's not really even possible without a connection in the business. I would drop Bordeaux too.

The Loire is 1000km long and has wine grown over about half of it. If we ignore Muscadet at the mouth of the river the rest is made up of Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir (various), Merlot and a great many of little varietals such as Fer. Wine types range across from Fizzy, dry, sweet and very sweet. But of course, the varietal is probably less important than the terroir. The most interesting terroir is in Sancerre (just look at a bird's eye view of the place), Vouvray, Saumur and Savennieres
Report Abuse
thanks..think will likely to use Saumur / Chinon as base in Loire, before heading over to Sancerre and Dijon..on the way to Provence.looking to drive between 2-3 hours a day on route...what's a good base for Provence? Aix-en-Provence? Avignon? We will probably take the TGV back from Provence to Paris.
Report Abuse
skweng - it's about 40kms between Saumur and Chinon, and takes roughly 40 mins to drive between them.
so you'll really have to pick one or the other. -

annhig.Yup.Got it..am going to angers-noizay-romorantin in Loire..does this route make sense..

are you planning to stay in each of these places? or just to visit? how long in each? -

Personally I will not drop Bordeaux for anything else.
Great wineries(the famous 1855 classified wine), the town itself is beautifull and you can visit the Atlantic coast as well!
I am not so huge fan of Burgundy, Beaune, Dijon etc. - but that is just my opinion.

I would consolidate your Paris days a bit more. Just go on to the Loire from your arrival and don't waste time transferring to and from a hotel. You'll gain a full day that way probably. And maybe cut a day from the Loire, and have extra day at the end for Paris.
Report Abuse
annhig. plan is to stay one night each in angers and noizay and two nights in romorantin..then from romorantin go on to saulieu and then chagny..might either stay one night each at saulieu and chagny or two nights in chagny. before heading off to avignon.
gretchen..ya..that could work as well..but it is a 13hr flight from hk..just wanted break the trip up abit. -
Report Abuse
skeng - I think that i would stay two nights in Noizay [though i would prefer 3] and day trip to Angers from there, unless you have a particular reason for wanting to stay in Angers - i have a prejudice against "one-night stands" as I think that they provide very poor value in hotels and make a trip too "bitty".
it's about 90 mins to Angers from Noizay, according to google maps; you could go there first and then work your way back to Noizay via Saumur, Chinon and Villandry - the latter is a definite "must" in the area and would make a lovely afternoon's visit.
Chenonceau is my "must see" on the way to Romantin; if you had missed Villandry the day before, you could go there in the morning and see Chenonceau in the afternoon. -
Report Abuse
I would think on a 13 hour flight you would probably get some pretty good rest/sleep, unlike the 6-7 from the east coast of the US. Of course, it is your trip, but we often just like to keep going if possible to maximize time--and get where we want to be and stay our first night, if travelling outside of Paris.

Thanks all for your recommendations. All set for a fun drive around France in the summer!

hi all,

How can I get my daughter to play by herself?
My 4-year-old daughter won't entertain herself for more than five minutes. She wants me to play with her constantly and follows me around all day. I've got my hands full caring for my younger 7-month-old baby -- and I feel like I can't get anything done. Help!

I HAVE A TWO YRS AND A FOUR YRS THEY WONT PLAY EACHOTHER IT JUST SEMSE THAT THEY HAVE TO BE ROUND ME A LOTE. AND HAVE AOTHER ONE ON THE WAY.posted 07/25/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
My 2 1/2 year old son is exactly the same as you describe. It may be the new baby but it may not. In my son's case, he was like that even before his baby sister came along. Some kids are just more independent than others. I'm finding that the more his sister catches up to him in playing ability, the more she can take over my role as playmate. I also find that if I sit for a few minutes and show him how a toy works then he will play with that toy on his own for a while. Of course, at this age, the attention span is very short so a toy doesn't last more than 10 or 15 minutes but as he gets older, I'm hoping that will change. Make sure that you take some time for yourself by either leaving your spouse/partner with the kids for a while or hiring a babysitter (even for an hour to pop out to the mall). I find this helps keep everything in perspective:)posted 07/05/2005 by kdkwan
My 4 year old son is the same way. I have found that if I take some time during each day just for him that it does help. We either play a game, read a book, or just watch TV together, but it's JUST me and him. This will get harder to do after this baby is born I'm sure. But I feel your pain! Hang in there!posted 05/12/2005 by K9copwifeMom
The problem I'm having with my 4-year old son is a little different. He will play by himself fine as long as he is in the same room with me. He has a room full of toys but he will go upstairs to his room and get what he wants to play with and bring it down stairs to the living room and play. He knows that he has to carry everything back up to his room when he's finished but he will still drag everything downstairs if we let him. If I make him go to his room and play he will but it's usually a struggle to get him to agree to go to his room. My husband and I have come to the conclusion that he's afraid he's going to miss something if he's not in the same room with us! It's almost impossible sometimes for us to sit down and have a serious conversation about anything.posted 03/29/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
My son is 5 & has no younger sibilings & still wants someone to play with most of the time. I rarely can get him to do anything by himself. I don't know if it's just a phase or what but I don't know what to do.posted 03/07/2005 by Mom2Clay1999
My daughter has been clinging to me the last couple of weeks. She says she's lonely if I leave her to herself for more than 5 minutes. She's not in school yet (kindergarten is next year). But this is so not her. Not even her father makes a good substitute lately! I am 30 weeks pregnant. You think she's starting to get anxious about the upcoming "new addition?" Or is it some other emotional thing. Like do 5 year old girls go through a phase since they are kind of out of the "little girl" phase and into the "big girl" phase? Do 5 year old girls process things on a "deeper" level than say when they are 4? I suppose I've been kind of hormonal lately too. Maybe she's reacting to that?? Somebody give me some good info!!posted 02/24/2005 by queasy1
I have the same problem. My 4 year old is constantly begging for our attention. To make matters worse, he has been misbehaving at preschool and at times has been hostile towards the baby. I really try to spend time with him, but it's very difficult with a 7 month old baby, who aside from teething, cries everytime I leave the room.posted 01/28/2005 by angel_972000
Hi Hailey my 3 year old son does the exact same thing...only he doesn't have a baby brother or sister...but when i get home from work he's GLUED to my side for the rest of the evening or day or whatever time i get home from work...i can understand because im gone 9 hrs a day and he's in preschool and im working when he gets picked up from school...but the constantly being glued to me is that he's mama's boy....maybe your 4 yr old just wants to be mama's little girl for a little while...i know it can be frustrating when you have to get things done...take time out from your daily routine when the little one's down for a nap and spend time with her and play games watch videos or even just go outside and play *take baby monitor with you* and praise her when she does something and tries to get your attention...my sis in law has to do that with her 10 and 3 yr old sons and her 1 yr old daughter so i can feel how frustrating it can be i don't know your pain but i can feel it...i just follow what my sis in law does when i have her kids and my son together i try to pay them all the equal amount of attention and in the end no one's glued to me and they are all happy little campers!posted 01/26/2005 by SCMama_Derek_12-21
Wow! I thought everyone gave great (non-judgemental) advice. But what about when the child (boy, 4 1/2) wants you to WATCH with undevided attention everything they do. They're playing a game, drawing, even driving their matchbox cars and they just won't quit asking you to watch them? Any suggestions on that? I try to integrate the idea that mommy has chores and until those are done she is not allowed to play. I do this to try and teach responsiblity. But sometimes it is just nonstop.posted 01/25/2005 by Zane&Ashtonsmom
I have four kids myself and it can be hard to give her what she wants all the time nor should you.My 2 older boys are in school all day so,when it's just me and my 2and 1/2 yr.old and my DD(9mos.)my son wants me to play when I have cleaning and laundry etc.to do.I tell him that when I'm done we can read a book or color.I tell him to get his game or coloring book and start to practice until mommy's done.If that doesn't work I'll give him a fleather duster or a water spray bottle and tell him to help by dusting or spraying the patio door and wipe it w/paper towels.Kid's love those kinds of things.There little and very easy to make them feel important when their helping you so you can get your things done.Make sure that when your DD finishes helping you dust or clean you make a big deal about how well she did and that it looks sooo nice.She'll then be wanting to do more because your showing her the love and praise she's looking for.Hope this helps.It really does work if you put forth the effort to try and as all of us mom's can see you've already taken the first step by asking for advice.Good Luck!posted 01/22/2005 by ws_422
Answer this question


text:
Originally installed in 1981, the sculpture was set in the middle of the lawn and surrounded by formal walkways. The placement was dictated by an only partly completed plan conceived by the world-renowned architectural firm of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill. But because of budget constraints and DPAC don Donald Seawell's well-known antipathy for the sculpture, the plaza was never landscaped and was only minimally maintained.
In the mid-1990s, a decision was made to revamp the area, and the firms of EDAW and Carter and Burgess came up with a novel plan for a sculpture park. And they had an even more novel way of achieving it. Their first suggestion? Remove the "Solar Fountain." You know, the only sculpture there.
Everything else they did was just as bad and just as idiotic. For instance, look at that preposterous set of stairs that hysterically wend their way up to the galleria above. The stairs are meant to do double duty as seating for outdoor theater audiences, though it's hard to imagine anything that would be audible above the constant din of the traffic on Speer.
Joel Shapiro: sculpture
Through May 29
Denver Performing Arts Complex, Speer Boulevard between Arapahoe and Champa streets, and the Denver Art Museum, 100 West 14th Avenue Parkway, 720-865-5000
See that mangy evergreen tree imprisoned in a concrete container on the elevated plaza at the bottom of the stairs? According to documents produced for the project, that tree is meant to be decorated by artists along seasonal themes. (Apparently someone at either EDAW or Carter and Burgess had a subscription to Martha Stewart Living.)
Well, not surprisingly, no one ever got around to putting on a play at the bottom of the steps or decorating the tree. However, with the Shapiros, there are finally some sculptures in the sculpture park -- and to think, only a few years after the "Solar Fountain" was scrapped. But don't get your hopes up: The Shapiros are set to leave at the end of May.
However, there is a plan for a permanent piece for the sculpture park, a preposterous sixty-foot-tall dancing stick-figure couple by Jonathan Borofsky, which was personally chosen by Denver's first lady, Wilma Webb. The Borofsky was supposed to be paid for by private donations, but those funds have not materialized, and it looks like the public art budget for the ever-expanding Colorado Convention Center next door will be raided to pay for at least part of it. The move is both possible and legal since the site is adjacent to the CCC, and the law allows for funding in such a situation.
I'm sure some will come to love the Borofsky, but from my naive point of view, it is comparable stylistically to those embarrassing ballerinas by Ruth Keller Schweiss over at the Adam's Mark Hotel. (In what can only be seen as one of those truth-is-stranger-than-fiction things, Bell, of the "Solar Fountain," is doing his own stick figures not far away at the under-construction Invesco Field at Mile High -- or whatever it's called.) I repeat a prediction I made when the Borofsky was first proposed in 1998: The sculpture will become the most reviled object in Denver.
I guess we'll have to wait and see. For now, though, those marvelous Shapiros are definitely worth a look -- even if only from the window of a speeding car.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

The following is a selection of quotes from editorials and commentaries
carried in 17-18 October 2011 website editions of mainland Chinese, Hong
Kong and Taiwan newspapers and news portals available to BBC Monitoring.
Unless otherwise stated, the quotes are in Chinese. The figure in
brackets after the quote indicates the date of publication on the
US foreign policy
Beijing's Renmin Ribao (Chinese Communist Party newspaper People's
Daily) overseas edition: www.people.com.cn "...The wars in Afghanistan
and Iraq have been fought for a decade, but did these two countries end
up in utter ruins because they took the initiative to start war on the
US? The war Libya has yet to finish, but did Gaddafi's guards take the
initiative to attack America? Now the situation in Syria is also in
frequent crises, but did the [Syrian President] Assad family use bombs
to threaten US security? No. The one truly harming US security is the US
itself... Today, what the US should reflect on is not how to set up
defences, but throwing away its big stick and trying to make friends
with neighbours. Only then can it gain a peace of mind." (Yang Ziyan,
reporter) (18)
2. "...The US' many challenges against China are in line with the US'
Asia strategy... Wielding a knife at Iran is in line with the US' Middle
East strategy. Even though the turmoil in the Middle East this year has
weakened Iran's direct influence in the region, it has not enhanced the
influence of Saudi Arabia. In Iraq after the fall of [former Iraqi
president] Saddam, Iran's influence is also greater than the US and
Saudi Arabia's. The US is somewhat restless with the changes that are
occurring in the overall pattern of the Middle East. But regardless of
how it struggles, what is most important for the US is always its own
interests..." (Zhang Hong, reporter) (18)
Shanghai's Jiefang Ribao (Liberation Daily): www.jfdaily.com.cn "...The
BBC says Sirte is a tough nut to crack. Why can't it be cracked? There
are objective reasons, but the 'National Transitional Council' [NTC] and
NATO also have subjective reasons... NATO and the 'NTC' are reluctant to
let [Libyan leader] Gaddafi die in their hands... If Gaddafi dies in a
NATO air strike, then it will validate the criticisms of the African
media. NATO will become the executioner who killed Gaddafi and Gaddafi
will become Africa's national hero... NATO allies want to delay the
arrival of victory to gain time to further control the 'NTC' in dividing
up the spoils of Libya's post-war reconstruction according to their
wishes..." (Huang Shejiao, former Chinese ambassador to the Democratic
Republic of Congo and Rwanda, and member, China Foundation for
International Studies) (18)
Beijing's Huanqiu Shibao (Global Times) website: www.huanqiu.com "The
Afghan Taleban regime was ousted by US-led NATO forces after '9.11'. 10
years later, this organization has not only not been eliminated, it is
more and more active and very likely to be in power again... As
fundamentalists, the top levels of the Taleban are relatively honest and
clean, which is a powerful weapon to conquer hearts and minds. In
contrast, the corruption of Afghan government officials is often
exposed. Moreover, the Taleban have long since controlled many local
governments. Taleban officials confidently say that if foreign countries
withdraw troops, it will take less than a year to retake the national
government. This prospect is by no means illusory and Afghanistan's
neighbouring countries should take precautions." (Xu Boyuan,
commentator, Beijing) (17)
South China Sea
Beijing's Renmin Ribao overseas edition: "Last week, China and Vietnam
signed an agreement to adhere to through friendly consultations and
properly handle and resolve maritime issues... This has poured cold
water on those countries that are eagerly expecting to use 'hot
treatment' of the South China Sea issue to gain benefits. This 'cold
treatment' is very timely... 'Cold treatment' lies in not allowing the
problem to expand even more... Certain claimant countries are trying to
drag in some third parties or even more countries that have nothing to
do with the South China Sea and this can only make the problem more
complex..." (Ding Gang, senior editor) (18)
Beijing's People's Daily Online (Chinese Communist Party news portal)
website in English: english.people.com.cn "...Resolving the South China
Sea dispute will not be plain sailing. The agreement [on resolving
maritime issues between China and Vietnam] is just a beginning and does
not necessarily mean successful settlement of the dispute. The main goal
of the agreement is to provide political guidance for future
negotiations but not to introduce specific measures for solving
problems. All in all, the agreement will be just another dead letter if
both sides lack sincerity and fail to take concrete actions." (Zhang
Haiwen, Liu Qing; from Beijing newspaper Global Times) (12)
Beijing's Liaowang Xinwen Zhoukan (Outlook Weekly) magazine:
lw.xinhuanet.com "...In recent years, due to a variety of complex
reasons and also because of meddling by external forces and provocation
by hostile forces, disputes over South China Sea territorial and
maritime rights and interests have been increasingly stirred up. Wanton
exaggeration of so-called 'South China Sea tensions' is one of the
measures of certain external forces to display their 'smart
diplomacy'... China and Vietnam need to keep their eyes open, raise
vigilance and exclude interference. People must not be misled by such
falsehoods like 'now is a good opportunity to use force in the South
China Sea' that are being disseminated on the Internet..." (Ling Dequan,
researcher, Centre for World Affairs Studies, Xinhua News Agency) (17)
2. "...The common interests between China and the US are far greater
than the differences between the two countries in the Asia-Pacific
region... The US wants East Asian and Southeast Asian allies and
partners to balance and contain China on the South China Sea issue, but
it does not want disputes to reach an uncontrollable stage... As long as
China and the US keep a clear head, clearly understand the international
trend of peaceful development and are not led along by certain forces in
Asia-Pacific, peaceful coexistence between China and the US in the
Asia-Pacific region will not be empty talk. To accomplish this, they
must first understand each other's position and maintain close
communication. The significance of discussing Asia-Pacific affairs is
nothing less than this." (Cui Lei, researcher, Department of American
Studies, China Institute of International Studies) (17)
Beijing's Renmin Ribao overseas edition: "...The rise of Japan's
military industry may not be a good thing in terms of peace and
stability in the Asia-Pacific region. Japan has unending territorial and
historical disputes with surrounding countries, and it will have
difficulty winning trust... At the same time, there are concerns. After
abandoning the 'three principles on arms exports' [banning arms exports
to communist bloc countries, countries subject to UN arms exports
embargos, and countries involved in or likely to be involved in
international conflicts], will Japan also abandon the 'three non-nuclear
principles' of not manufacturing, not possessing and not importing
nuclear weapons?.." (Xiong Xiaowei) (18)
Beijing's Huanqiu Shibao website: "...It should be noted that Japan's
'three principles on arms exports' have already been eroded... At least
for the US, Japan's 'three principles on arms exports' already exist in
name only... At this point, the relocation of US bases in Okinawa is
still a matter that cannot be accomplished easily, so in order to quell
the US' anger, [Japanese Prime Minister] Yoshihiko Noda can only relax
the 'three principles on arms exports' as a 'big gift' to the US during
his November visit..." (Jiang Feng, editor-in-chief, Japan New Overseas
Chinese biweekly newspaper, Tokyo) (17)
2. "...Everyone knows that Japan needs a string of islands as a
springboard as a prerequisite to enter the South China Sea and Taiwan is
one of the first stops... Now the Peace Constitution almost exists in
name only, yet some Southeast Asian countries have taken an
opportunistic diplomatic initiative to open the door to the South China
Sea for Japan. This will result in opening a breach in the Yalta system
that has ensured peace in the Far East. This is tantamount to Southeast
Asian countries digging their own graves... If Japan supports 'Taiwan
independence' forces to come to power in future, what will follow will
be a disaster throughout East Asia." (Prof Zhang Wenmu, Centre for
Strategic Studies, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics)
Mekong River killings
Beijing's Renmin Ribao overseas edition: "On 5 October, 12 Chinese crew
members were killed and one is missing in the Mekong River Golden
Triangle waterway. The 'Mekong River tragedy' has shocked citizens...
The issue of how to recreate security in the 'golden waterway', to
prevent the 'Mekong River tragedy' from happening again is a more
arduous task... If necessary, China could consider stationing police
attaches in the countries concerned... Naval escorts like China's in the
Gulf of Aden can ensure the safety of international trade routes and
better protect the personal safety of its citizens from being illegally
violated..." (Xin Jingping) (18)
Guangzhou's Guangzhou Ribao (Guangzhou Daily): gzdaily.dayoo.com "...For
[Russian Prime Minister] Putin, this trip to China [11-12 October] will
help to consolidate his domestic political position, adding considerable
extra points to his presidential campaign next year... Putin's visit to
China has enabled Russia-China relations to reach their highest level in
history, and the two countries have achieved unprecedented mutual trust
in the political sphere. For Putin, this visit to China will also help
strengthen his diplomatic position before the West, increasing his room
for manoeuvre in dealing with the West... Putin fears that after
becoming president, there may be some trouble in dealing with the West.
The visit to China will help to resolve this trouble to a certain
extent..." (Deng Jianjun, commentator) (17)
Shanghai's Diyi Caijing Ribao (China Business News): www.china-cbn.com
"...Putin's visit carries clues to the future development direction of
China-Russia relations. The Asia-Pacific region will be the main
objective of Russia's foreign policy in future and China will be
Russia's focal target of cooperation in future... The results of Putin's
visit to China show that the main line of China-Russia relations in the
next decade will still be close political relations and enhanced
economic cooperation. Compared to the previous politically hot and
economically cold state, the visit has heralded a good start for the
expansion of economic cooperation..." (Xu Zhaoying, researcher, China
Business News Research Institute, Shanghai) (17)
2. "...'President-elect' Putin has injected political soul into the
China-Russia political strategic alliance... It is actually the US that
is forcing China and Russia to unite more closely together... With an
alliance of China and Russia - two core major powers who are permanent
members of the UN Security Council - even the US will be powerless
against this colossus.... Now, 'Occupy Wall Street' is intensifying
internal conflicts, so the China-Russia strategic alliance will
dramatically increase its difficulty in shifting crises overseas. This
will make the balance between China and the US that gradually started to
tilt towards the US since Obama took office, especially after bin Laden
was killed in early May this year, now tilt back to China..." (Zhang
Tingbin, commentator) (17)
Global economy
Beijing's Renmin Ribao domestic edition: "'Emerging markets cannot save
the world', 'emerging economies cannot drive the world economic
engine'... With bad news constantly emerging in advanced economies, some
Western media who were recently still flattering emerging economies have
changed their tune. Flattery is intended to make emerging economies
contribute more; while bad-mouthing is intended to satisfy their own
psychological need to be a 'leader' - the West must have the final say
in this world... Right now the biggest concern of people towards the
world economy is not whether emerging economies can drive the world
economy, but whether developed economies can show the courage to
effectively solve their own problems. Mutual complaints will not help
the situation, and passing the buck and shifting crises onto others will
do even more harm than good." (Zhong Sheng, senior editor) (18)
Beijing's Renmin Ribao overseas edition: "...The constantly inflating
desire of Americans for consumption has led to the Sino-US trade
imbalance. Experts point out that long-standing habit of spending beyond
one's means of the Americans, as well as the government's uncontrolled
foreign wars and global expansion, has made the US' demand for consumer
goods and public goods keep expanding. Relying solely on imports to fill
the supply gap has led to increased imports from China. The US is
'blocking' by limiting exports to China, while complaining about the
trade deficit with China and refusing to allow Chinese enterprises to
enjoy relevant trade benefits. In the long run, this self-contradictory
approach will ultimately be detrimental to themselves." (Luo Lan,
reporter) (18)
2. "The US thinks it is wise, but it is in fact foolish." (Interview
with Ding Yifan, deputy director, Institute of World Development, State
Council Development Research Centre) (18)
Beijing's China Daily (state-run newspaper) in English:
www.chinadaily.com.cn "...Considering the balance and general atmosphere
of US politics, it is unlikely that the bill [Currency Exchange Rate
Oversight Reform Act] will ever end up as a piece of legislation. US
senators should learn to alter their old way of thinking, not only on
the current exchange rate dispute with China, but also on other issues
as well. In today's globalized world, there is no place for
beggar-thy-neighbour policies such as this, and cooperating with others
is the smarter choice. I hope that US senators will realize this and
make the smarter choice next time. After all, they have so many problems
of their own that need to be solved." (Xing Susu, researcher, Chinese
People's Institute of Foreign Affairs) (18)
Beijing's Xin Jing Bao (The Beijing News): www.thebeijingnews.com
"...The US is using dollars to hold China to ransom and it is time for
China to make a choice again... The sharp depreciation of the dollar
against the renminbi has made China's dollar assets shrink. This
so-called 'balance' between the two countries must be broken. China no
longer has any reason to tie its huge reserves and assets to the
dollar... At present, regardless of whether the US uses the exchange
rate and trade sanctions against China, China should strategically
reduce holdings of US bonds and dollar reserve assets..." (Zhang Monan,
associate researcher, Department of World Economy, Economic Forecast
Department, State Information Centre) (17)
Beijing's Guangming Ribao (Chinese Communist Party newspaper):
www.gmw.com.cn "...The movement looks like an unleashing of anger by
ordinary Americans blaming Wall Street for causing a financial tsunami,
but it is actually the inevitable result of the financial-economic
crisis spreading to the social-political sphere. Its underlying cause is
the failure of the American-style free market economic model, and it is
a grave consequence of 'market fundamentalism'... The financial system
is making American society bear the losses and enabling individuals to
reap profits. This is a distorted economy. It is a scourge brought by
American-style capitalism to the whole world." (Chen Fengying, director,
Institute of World Economic Studies, China Institute of Contemporary
International Relations) (18)
Beijing's Huanqiu Shibao website: "When the debt crisis in the US and
Europe is intensifying, the question of how to use China's huge foreign
exchange reserves is already a focus of world attention. I do not
believe that the reserves should not be distributed to ordinary people.
If foreign reserves can be used to buy material products needed
domestically and distributed directly to the low-income population and
other special groups, this will be the best way to preserve the people's
livelihood. It can turn excessive foreign reserves into a motive force
for domestic economic development and for improving the people's
livelihood..." (Li Chang'an, associate professor, School of Public
Administration, University of International Business and Economics,
Beijing) (17)
Beijing's Liaowang Xinwen Zhoukan magazine: "Based on the current global
economic situation and development trends, after 30 years or so, a
'fifth-generation international monetary system' of a
dollar-euro-renminbi triumvirate is most likely to be formed... The era
of a world market monopolized by developed countries for 100 years will
end, and the international trading system with Western countries at the
core will be replaced by a multipolar structure... The international
monetary system will change from 'one master, multiple currencies' to
'checks and balances among multiple currencies'..." (Chen Yulu,
vice-president, China Institute of International Finance, and president,
Beijing Foreign Studies University) (17)
Beijing's Xuexi Shibao (Study Times, Chinese Communist Party Central
Party School weekly newspaper): www.studytimes.com.cn "Since the
outbreak of the European sovereign debt crisis that originated in Greece
between 2009 and 2010, it has been going on for nearly two years so far
with no relief and has a potential to spread and worsen. This debt
crisis has once again exposed the gap in trans-Atlantic Europe-US
relations and divisions within Europe. It is reminiscent of 2003. At the
start of that year, the US launched war to invade Iraq. A few words by
former US secretary of defence Rumsfeld cleaved Europe into two halves
at once: 'New Europe' and 'old Europe'... Although this trans-Atlantic
dispute is not as intense as in 2003, the split within Europe is deeper
than the last time..." (Qiu Yuanlun, former director, Institute of
European Studies, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences) (17)
Beijing's Beijing Review magazine website in English:
www.bjreview.com.cn "...Although the Chinese economy's growth prospect
is optimistic, it still faces multiple challenges, some of which are
severe, such as the uncertainty of the US and European economic
recoveries, rising inflation pressures, emerging financial risks of
local governments and tightening monetary policies for small and micro
enterprises. The biggest challenge comes from uncertainties and
instabilities from the external economic environment. Europe's sovereign
debt woes and tepid global economic growth will add uncertainty to
domestic policy-making. If the US launches another round of quantitative
easing this year, it will strongly affect the global economy..." (Lu
Zhongyuan, vice-president, Development Research Centre, State Council)
Taipei's China Times: news.chinatimes.com "...In Asia, the rise of China
is like a thorn in the flesh for the US. In the long run, even though a
US-China trade war may not necessarily occur, US trade protection
measures against China will be gradually increased and China's momentum
of growth will be gradually weakened. At this time, South Korea's
[President] Lee Myung-bak regime, which has always been loyal to the US,
has become the best partner candidate for the US... Taiwan is currently
worried about a US-South Korea free trade zone, but this is actually the
natural outcome of the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement [signed
with the mainland]. The ECFA is not without a price. It is now time for
Taiwan to pay the price and its price is exclusion from Asia's new
'strategic economy'!" (Nan Fangshuo, editor-in-chief, Hong Kong magazine

We have a 60 year old ranch which perhaps did not see any plumber in last 10 years. So, the bathtub has a pretty slow drainage from clogged up pipes. Walking down the crawl space, I figured it has old galvanazied pipes coming out of the tub to a drum trap which is partially operable and then another galvanized line connected the drum trap to main sewer line. We have two plumbers came and gave some estimates to handle the slow drainage issue.
Plumber#1. $1900- he will replace estimated 10-15 feet of galvanaized iron lines with PVC and install a new P-trap. I think that is ridiculous $ for a 3 hour job. Plumber#2. $600 for the same job but he says it will take two plumber do finish the job in 3 hours. He mentioned that will be the maximu estimate but things can wrap up sooner and will lower the final cost. I think he will do his best to charge me the the maximum time to support his estimate. I feel plumber #2 is not as bad as #1, but still asking for too much for this work. Do you guys agree with me? FYI, we are in center NJ. |

BHUBANESWAR: ATM counters in Bhubaneswar will soon flash sketches of conmen, who take gullible card users for a ride. Police have decided to ask different banks to supply them the sketches of suspects, whose photos have been captured in the machine's inbuilt cameras.
"We would ask major nationalized and private sector banks to provide us sketches of the accused or suspects. We will subsequently paste the photos in public places, especially in crowded ATM counters for public information," DCP Nitinjeet Singh told TOI. "The photos would be put in such places that those, who tear them would be captured on cameras," Singh said.
The commissionerate of police has the existing practice of uploading photos of suspected thieves on its official website, seeking help of the public to nab them. "Banks provide us the photos, which we upload on our website. Through this we tasted success by cracking two ATM fraud cases recently," Singh said.
The state capital has witnessed a spurt in crime relating to fraudulent withdrawal of money from ATM counters. While major banks receive such complaints almost everyday, the commissionerate police registered nearly 17 such cases in the last six months. Many incidents also go unreported as victims hesitate to lodge complaints in police stations.
The unguarded SBI ATM counter in Capital Hospital compound has become the latest target of anti-socials as the bank received five complaints relating to theft of money in the last three months. The latest incident occurred on October 2 when an auto-rickshaw driver Ranjit Kumar Patra was tricked by a man, who withdrew Rs 35,000 from his account. Patra lodged a complaint at Capital police station on Thursday.
"Five people were present inside the counter when I reached. While I failed to make transaction in one machine, I withdrew money from the second machine in the counter," Patra said. "Next day I was surprised to know Rs 35,000 missing from my account," he said.
"I went to the bank with my complaint where the authorities showed me photographs of some suspects. I immediately identified the man, who was present among the group in the counter," Patra said. DCP Singh said police would ask the bank to provide them the photo to nab the culprit.
"Though the hospital ATM counter always remains crowded, the bank authorities never cared to deploy security guards outside. We had drawn the bank's attention to it in the past, but in vain," said Gautam Reddy, an ambulance driver.

Sri Lanka court stops impeachment of top judge
Published on Jan 7, 2013 9:42 PM
COLOMBO (AFP) - Sri Lanka's Court of Appeal on Monday ordered parliament to drop its impeachment of the country's top judge, amid international concern for judicial independence on the island.
The court issued an order quashing a report by ruling party lawmakers who found Chief Justice Shirani Bandaranayake guilty of financial and professional misconduct over a month ago.
"The court granted the writ sought by the chief justice (against parliament)," a court official told reporters outside a packed courthouse.
"This means parliament cannot legally proceed with the impeachment."

I have acidic sand soils and want to let my dozen figs (now in 10 gallon pots) grow to full size in the ground.
What kind of performance can I expect if I make some reasonable effort to make sure there are few nematodes at first (after a year's mulching or maybe solarization or dense growth of special marigolds)? Nematodes are sure to arrive I assume, but if I keep the trees well mulched, fertilized, and watered, how well do full-size maintained trees normally grow under nematode attack in very susceptible, nearly pure sand soils?

Guest Post From Shopmaster of MyMaddenPad.com!
WAIVI | Jan 03, 2010 | Comments 0
Sgibs and ZFarls are hard at work! We are getting ready on PS3 under the name maddenbible. We will be doing one last show this week before leaving for Orlando and the MLG. We have some sick stuff to show off once we get back.
Hello Madden Biblers, I just wanted to give major props to Sgibs and Zfarls for the stuff they do for the Madden Community.
I just recently decided to step up my game and get serious about it again and really hit the lab and study my craft. I turned to two guys that I've been really impressed by this year in the way they study every aspect of the game. It's what I would be doing if I had the time. So I let Zfarls and Sgibs do my studying for me and just labbed some of the techniques they have found to be so successful.
I got both their Detroit Playbook guide and their NYJ defensive guide. I was already using the jets defense and it was perfect.
before I started using their guides, techniques, tips, and suggestions I was 51-30 level 8 or 9. I was part of a league so I didn't play a lot of ranked games but I wanted to start to show everyone how effective the tips and the scheme I run were.
I've always felt that having multiple schemes are essential to success.
The first scheme I come out in is the Strong I Twin TE and I run about 5 different plays out of this formation. The key is to make every play look the same. Sgibs and Zfarls talk about this all the time and it keeps your opponent off balanced.
I usually run this scheme for 1 drive. My second drive I use the singleback bunch set and a scheme I came up with. I love this set because the run plays (toss crack and HB Sprint) are very good and after you hit them a couple of times for big pass plays, they don't know how to defend. Once again making all the plays look alike are keys.
I also run a GUN BUNCH TE set along with a EMPTY TRE FLEX scheme I like to use under two minutes to put drives together. I forgot what show it was that SGIBS and ZFARLS showed how to run the EMPTY set, but that's when I realized I had that in my playbook.
On defense I i love the 3-4 Sting Pinch and I have a lot of 1-5-5 defenses that I like to mix in to keep my opponent off balanced. My favorite base defense is the 3-4 2 Deep MLB Spy. I can usually shut down people by mixing it up.
So bottom line is I am now: 104-33 lvl 22. So since I've been using the tips from Zfarls and Sgibs I am 53-3 and have gone up 13 levels
I have gained almost 2 TD more on offense and take away 2 turnovers more on defense.
Thanks Sgibs and Zfarls, I look forward to looking for more people on the forum to get tips from.

The Steamboat Inn came highly recommended by a family member. The Inn is located right near shops and restaurants and the rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated. Looking out at the Mystic River while relaxing by the in room fireplace was wonderful..Special touches like the evening cookies and sherry, as well as the breakfast in the morning, make this a place to go back to over and over.
4,6 sur janvier 12, 2015
Nicely appointed rooms. Beautiful locatin. Walking distance to shopping and awesome restaurants. Wonderful hot breakfasts and cheery staff.
4,0 sur décembre 13, 2014
The greeting was warm and welcoming. We were escorted to our room where the door was opened and beckoning. The room included a large bed and a leather loveseat in front of the working fireplace. In the evening you can stop at the common room to get sherry and cookies. Great for sipping infront of the fire. We overlooked the Mystic River which was quiet as it was December, it would be quite active in the Summer. Breakfast was delicious and the staff was extremely friendly. Because it has only 11 rooms it was very quiet and intimate. We rarely stay in hotels or Inns, but our experience at the Steamboat Inn has us already planning to go back!
5 sur octobre 05, 2014
Friendly, open staff. Clean, attractive room. Great insights to Mystic, and surrounding areas. Wish we could have stayed longer. Book here and you will not be disappointed!!
4,2 sur septembre 19, 2014
We stayed here via a gift certificate from my son. It was a wonderful experience. The inn is right on the river/waterfront and located right downtown, so my wife loved easy access to all the shops in Mystic. The room was incredible, the only thing that was not exceptional was the breakfast. It was a normal muffin, bagel, coffee juice and scrambled eggs. Don't get me wrong, it was still very good, but often at a B&B you'll get an exceptional breakfast. You'll have a great time if you go, and we'll be back again.
5 sur juillet 29, 2014
From the moment you check in, you're treated like royalty. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Great clean room with comfortable bed, fabulous tub/shower. Breakfast was terrific each day with a good deal of choices. Complimentary soft drinks and coffee all day. Sherry and cookies each evening. All included. Would most definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay and unwind.
4,2 sur octobre 19, 2013
We received a warm welcome on arrival and we're delighted with our room (No.1-Ariadne) which was very comfortable and spacious having a large bathroom with a double whirlpool tub. There was a lovely view of the river and being on the first floor gave more privacy. The location is ideal for restaurants and shops and is within easy walking distance of the excellent Mystic Seaport Museum, a must visit. This rated in the top three of all the Inns we stayed at during our 3 week tour of New England.
5 sur août 19, 2013
As always!
3,2 sur août 13, 2013
My husband and I needed to get away for 2 days after a very stressful month. We found a perfect retreat at Steamboat Inn. The room was wonderful though at peak tourist time being along the water at street level might be a little intrusive. Very clean and loved taking the bikes out around town. The only negative was that the staff were not overly friendly. They were gracious when asked to leave the car parked after we checked out and to take bikes, but a little short on that B&B hospitality. Would stay again though and would recommend.
