Microsoft Circles the Wagons To Defeat ODF In the UK 89
from the tell-them-ODF-is-bigger-on-the-inside dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
If you don't want the same objection to be valid a decade from now, consider making your views known at the Cabinet Office Standards Hub. The deadline is February 26.
The documents are on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign outside the door saying "Beware of the Leopard."
Make sure you bring a torch.
I call bullshit. OpenOffice or LibreOffice can be configured to store files in
People who say OpenOffice read and writes MS Office files fine can not have used this themselves on an ongoing basis for more than the simplest of files. It regularly messes up the documents, and macros. Not saying OpenOffice is at fault for this, it is just a fact, that shouldn't be falsely presented to potential users.
Just today I had to tell someone to save to PDF before uploading because Open Office's automatic conversion (which we call on the back end) fucks shit up half the time.
We could update to a later version of Open Office, but it'll just fuck things up differently (it'll replace all the bullets in a list with a clock icon, regardless of what font we use).
Next Microsoft is going to remove
ODF is an open (truely open, not OOXML-like "open") file format. Nothing is stopping Office from supporting it if it doesn't already do so.
They can't play the "old versions of Office"-card either, since OOXML is no more backwards compatible than ODF.
Simplicity does not precede complexity, but follows it.

Lavendar - Annual? Perennial?
I planted three healthy lavendar plants last year (can't remember the variety) & they did not come back this year. I was sure it was something I did & then I began to question if the variety I planted might not be annual. I always thought of lavendar as a very hardy perennial until I recently saw some lavendar w/ tags marked annual at a Home Depot nursey. Do you know if there are annual varieties? Would love to try them again, but may have to rethink the location in my yard. Thanks so much.
Lavender is perennial, but some varieties are tender and would not have overwintered. What is your growing zone? French and Sweet Lavender as well as a number of the Spanish lavenders do not overwinter here. The English lavenders as well as Grosso and Provence do well here in zone 6b.
Hi Granite: According to Arborday.org, my zone is 6-7. Perhaps I'll go w/ zone 6 to be safe. I notice you are in zone 6b. What does the 'b' represent?
My mother is in the same zone & has lavender growing lushly. I'm also wondering if my soil didn't drain well. I may try again & amend the soil as it's very claylike in the spot I placed the plants last year.
Thank you for responding.
All lavenders are perennials, but they can be short-lived - they are best replaced after 5-7 years, though of course some do break the rules!
If it dies in winter, it dies of cold, not because it's anything but a perennial. It's just in the wrong place for it.
'Perennial' is a botanical classification, based on a plant's behaviour in its natural habitat. It is not a description of a plant's behaviour in a particular climate.
You can say, however, that 'a plant is TREATED AS as (perennial, annual, biennial) in a particular climate'.
Kim0201, some of the zoning maps split the zones into "a" (cooler) and "b" (warmer) sections within the zone. My area of the mountains on some maps is listed as zone 7, in others as zone 6, and in the more detailed maps as a zone 6b. The elevation here makes for a cooler climate at night and earlier/longer/cooler winters than a traditional zone 7.
The soil here is red clay. I planted my original lavender bushes on either side of a gravel walkway in 1996. The original bushes are still there, although they are very woody and unruly now so I will be in the process of replacing them with younger plants over the next year or so. I have lavender spread all over the yard now, children of the original plants. The varieties that did not overwinter well here are: Silver leaf, Goodwin Creek, Sweet, French. The most prolific bloomers of the many, many varieties I've grown here are Provence and Grosso; both are intermediate lavendulas that mature into 4-6' size bushes.
I'm in your same zone, although the other coast. I'm also a container gardener, which tends to change the grounds conditions enough, that I should really consider plants that thrive through zone 3-4's winters, yet, so far, my lavander has survived every winter. Then again, the charts say our winters go down to 0 to -10. The last time it's gone to 0 around here was about 30 years ago. Maybe your zone 6, really does get down to 0.
For my borderline periennials, I put them on our unheated, drafty, indoor front porch. Our heat leaks out to it, so it is like zone 7, sorta. Maybe you can try that. Then again, you can always propagate some each year, and bring the propagated plants in for the winter. That way, worse comes to worse, no need to buy them each year.
Just in case you think you are in one zone but grow things from another here is a zone map that the Arbor Day Foundation has done.
Even if your zone has not changed your weather may have.
Some of the lavenders that supposedly live in my zone will not live with the weather. What I could grow 10 years ago it is too dry for now.
Here is a link that might be useful: Arbor day zones
I planted some lavendar last spring and it did well during the summer. I had the impression that it's a tender perennial that would act as an annual in my zone 5 garden so I decided to leave it in a pot and bring it into my kitchen to overwinter.
It has gone dormant (or it's dead). For the life of me I cannot tell which. Anyone know how to tell. the ambient room temp is probably 69 or 70 but it's by a window so may get a chill. I've been watering it once a week (deep soaking) but suspect I'm watering a dead thing (leaves fall off if touched).
Thanks for any information or guesses.

Robocroc PlotWhen a top-secret unmanned spacecraft disintegrates on re-entry, its mysterious military payload crash-lands in the crocodile habitat of a place called Adventure Land, a combination water park, amusement land and world-famous crocodile exhibit. Following its pre-programmed instructions, the payload – a next-generation nanotech-based combat drone – finds a host in the form of the park's prize twenty-foot Australian Saltwater crocodile, Stella. She is the largest saltwater croc in captivity. Immediately upon infecting its host, the drone payload's nanobots begin to transform Stella from an organic, living creature into a lethal killing machine with only a single directive: survival! Before Chief Zoo-keeper Tim Duffy and reptile biologist Jane Spencer are able to figure out what's going on, they find the park taken over by the government team responsible for the secret project. As the crocodile continues to transform, it escapes the crocodile exhibit and enters the water park, running amok, killing dozens of patrons. But that's just the beginning…

everybody! I have a simple question. What does this line do?
trap "exec 1>&6 6>&- ; cat $LOGFILE" 0
So far, I understand that I am moving the standard output to 6 (this variable hasn't been declared before, so I assume that 6 is a variable created in this same line), then the '6>&-' is something I don't really get... and the cat $LOGFILE shows the contents of the variable LOGFILE. Also, the 0 at the end is supposed to mean that at the end of the execution of my program, execute 'exec 1>&6 6>&- ; cat $LOGFILE' before exiting.
Thanks for the help in advance!

VacationPosted Dec 31, 2014 on Hotels.com
This place I would not stay again. Not worth your time and money! Bathroom was tiny, you can't move your hands and not enough light. No place to keep even a soap dish. We were given a room behind the stairs, and even though hotel looked empty, they would not change because we booked at Hotel.com. Free breakfast was a joke -coffee served with dry creamer and muffins. Location was definitely good hence chose this place.

The staff was welcoming, the room looked newly renovated and had a good A/C system. We forgot to turn it off before leaving and came back to a freezing room, which was perfect for beating the August heat! Conveniently located to the casinos and Heavenly. It was a less than 10 dollar cab ride to get to Harvey's.

TahoePosted Aug 5, 2014
The bed and living area was clean, the bathroom looked like it had been recently painted with sink and toilet. The floor was dirty with nasty dirty black grout. Wasn't swept and need a good scrubbing and mop. The shower looked clean but it was very enclosed and dark with no light. The shower head was rusty and looked dirty. It barely sprayed out water and I didn't want to touch it to try and adjust it. The rest of the room was very nice, clean and updated. But looks like the maid skipped the bathroom and couple of times.

Just remodeled in June 2014Posted Jul 29, 2014 on Hotels.com
When I booked Trailhead I know it's just remodeled in June, so i expect a brand new hotel experience. However it's just partially new, old microwave, old fridge, old toilet, old shower amentities, and bathroom is super small. Our room is in located in first floor so it's pretty dark. However they have brand new bed and sheet and it's pretty comfy, TV is brand new too. The only con is because it's hot summer season weekend so it's a little bit pricy, but I guess it happend in all hotels in this season. Other than that no complaints. Staff are really nice and friendly and very knowledgeable about the area.

electrical problem on briggs
I have this Briggs Engine on a Murray Rider.
Here's what I've encountered so far. It's been sitting up for a while. Has a new battery. Would not turn over, although the solenoid does click when the key is turned. I jumped the solenoid and it turns over but would not start.
There is no spark at the plug unless I pull the kill / ground wire off the coil. It then has a strong visible spark. Plug the kill wire back to the coil and no spark at all.
I've traced the wires and on this model of Murray, everything is quite open and easy to get to. No visible bare wires. Have checked the safety switches and all read as they're supposed to. Am pretty sure the solenoid will need to be replaced but am more concerned right now about what is grounding and causing the "no spark."
Could a faulty solenoid be causing the no spark?? I'm thinking it's not because when I disconnect the kill wire, jump the solenoid, engine turns over and spark is present.......... This one's got me stumped.
Any feedback, advice, instruction would be most appreciated........ Thanks Much
I would work backwards from where the kill wire connects to the coil.
Unplug it from the coil and check continuity with the seat in both positions.
The seat switch sounds opposite of what it should be.
Maybe if you post Model/serial #'s, one "might" be able to dig up a schematic.
The schematic shows the seat switch as normally close (unoccupied).
When you are checking the kill wire, are you doing it with the key OFF or ON?
IF OFF, the kill wire is grounded.
We had another Murray just recently in which the schematic didn't match the actual circuitry.
Does your mower have a carb fuel solenoid? The schematic I have shows none.
Here is a link that might be useful: Schematic page 46

Keep Gettin' it Done.December 20, 2014
Perhaps inspirational talk for those kindred spirits who like to get things done.
There will be times when there is something that should be done, and it's something new to you. Maybe it's repainting your house, maybe it's building trail, maybe it's fixing your car, maybe it's going after a patch of invasive weeds, … There will be a lot of times when you're "it" – for various reasons, you're compelled to at least make the decision about how it's going to get done.
And there's usually a choice about how that thing should be accomplished:
- Let it slide
- Hire somebody
- Learn new things, make mistakes, accept imperfection, but get it done.
I'm a big fan of number three, but there are pros and cons to each approach. Read the rest of this entry »
It's done!December 12, 2014
My first (mostly) solo, decent sized wall. She is complete.
There's a fantastic quote about long journeys – I can't remember who penned it or the exact quote, but the gist is: We set out on a long journey, and upon returning to port, realized that the greatest discovery we'd made was ourselves.
Some thoughts after the fold:

When life gives you jerkons, make benchonade.October 29, 2014
Just about a week ago, one of the local residents wandered up to a wall I'm working on. She was very upset that I'd finished the top of a portion of the wall with copes, and was furious that she couldn't sit on the wall and rest her cup of coffee on one of the through stones anymore. (Long story short, the copes were in place because I was tired of "helpers" stacking stones on the wall.)
I'm getting used to being chewed out by the locals, but it's never very fun. I assured her that I'd build a bench at some point, explained what copes are and what they were for.
This is what the copes looked like:
A few days later I got a chance to get back to work on the wall, and about six feet of copes were gone in the exact spot she pointed out.
On the one hand, there's a good lesson there. I'm trying to build a wall that will last a hundred years; the reality is that it's a very popular trail and that wall might not even make it through the winter. Perhaps people are inspired to play, but dangitall, I'm tired of finding what people do to that wall when I'm not working on it. It's like a sand mandala – a meditation on impermanence – but with big rocks and no nice monks to hang out with.
On the other hand, there's a good lesson there. I realized I can't fight park visitors, especially nearby residents who basically have 24/7 access to the park. So I took the challenge on and made something bench-like.
I'm about halfway between Zen and "meh". Let's call it Zeh.
Fears.October 25, 2014
I spent few interesting months working next to incredibly popular trails. And frankly, I spent a little bit too much time with everybody involved, including me. Some blather about fear after the fold…
Poop. (NSFW, I guess)October 11, 2014
Found some poop on the Fowler trail this week:
In Defense of Wooden Steps.October 6, 2014
Generally, I like to build with stone. It's fun to work with, looks great, and when done well, stone structures last and last.
But stone has its limitations. I've spent the last two weeks building a pretty massive staircase out of pressure treated lumber.
Here are a few of the reasons I chose lumber over stone for this project:
- It's a big project that had to go fast. Building this beast out of stone would have taken months even if the nearby rock was good for building.
- The nearby rock is copious, but it's also crapious. There are some semi-decent rock sources within a few hundred yards – but the transit time would have doubled the project length.
- The bottom of the stairs is near the path of the spring water flow. That's not insurmountable, but would have easily added weeks of build time to divert the drainage and build an ample footing.
- The slope is made of mineral soil mixed with ball bearings. My hunch is that with the significant weight of stone steps and no bedrock in sight, stone stairs would eventually slump into the hillside. Wood stairs with stringers should float on the surface.
- Wood stairs facilitate rebar anchors. Every tread and stringer has multiple 5′ lengths of rebar hanging into that slope. There wouldn't be an easy way to anchor that much stone.
- Small crew size, and delegate-able tasks. In fact, for most of the build, the crew size was… me. I'm very lucky to get occasional busloads of helpers from Boulder County Justice Services. It worked well – I didn't have to train anybody: me build, you haul timbers.
And if you've read this far, you deserve to know that the Rattlesnake Gulch trail is open. Get out and hike/ride it quick – fall weather like we're having makes it one of the best trails on the front range.
And if you're looking for more incessant chattering, here's a copy of the bulletin pictured next to the stairs.
Wow, and wow. And then some more wow.September 28, 2014
Saw this over at John Shaw-Rimmington's blog this morning:
This work is stunning. The backstory is that the waller, Sean Donnelley, did this all with a very limited source of rock available on site. I can't tell you how many times I've had the humbling experience of walking up to a bunch of rock, thinking "hey, I'll build a wall with what's here", and a few days later realizing that I only succeeded in slightly rearranging some rocks and inventing new curse words.
I've had plenty of time recently to reflect on hubris – my own and others' – with regards to walling. It is very easy for the uninitiated (and incurious) to imagine that building with stone is trivially easy. "How hard could that be?" "It's just stacking rocks. Whatever. "If I had that rock, I could have built that wall." I think Mr. Donnelley's work blows that kind of narcissistic thinking out of the water.
More Lurnin' with Rocks and Stuff.September 12, 2014
The guy I learned a everything I know about building walls from always says something to the effect of: Learn to build fast, then learn to build nicely.
As a novice, that didn't make one bit of sense. It seems like trying to learn juggling by just throwing lots of balls fast. I've spent a lot of time trying to do everything I always do, but faster. That does not go well.
But the maxim is starting to make more sense – the quickest way to go faster is to eliminate the extras.
To wit:
- Use fewer tools. My current project is about 3/4 of a mile from the trailhead. I started by dragging out all my fancy schmancy hammers and chisels in a wheelbarrow, and as the month has gone on, I've left more and more tools in the van. Today, I built a lot of wall with two hammers:
- Be decisive. I get myself tied up thinking about the next stone, the stone after, the stone on top. Pick a stone, shape a bit if needed, place it, move on.
- Hearting is fun. It's a nice break to play a quick game of small rock stacking after some intense big rock stacking.
- Rules will be bent and/or broken. Yep, there's a big, fat, traced stone and a weird triangle stone in that picture up there. Sometimes a stone really locks in and makes sense, but doesn't abide by all the rules. That stone is a loner, Dottie. A rebel. I've tended to abandon prudent, good stone placements to find try and find the one that fits all the rules perfectly.
Now for the less smart stuff – aka the painful, I'm not learning as fast as I'd like to stuff…
- I'm not always careful about how I lift rocks. Some days, I use knees and hips and feel great at the end of the day. Some days, like today, I lock my knees, lift big rocks, and my back is totally worked after eight hours.
- I'm spoiled rotten by typical Colorado weather. It's usually hot and dry, or warm and dry, or cold and dry. A few straight weeks of drizzle and mud have thrown a muddy wrench into the drizzly works, and I have no damn idea what kind of clothes stand up to rock work and stay warm-ish.
The "learn to build fast" idea makes sense in another important way. It's not just saying "throw stones together quickly" – but it is saying that efficiency is a good focus for a tyro.
Wall is coming along.

I know Mr. xu who is the man.
In china, I think there is no future unless the current political system is revised but which is firmly rooted in the chinese culture for two-thousand years.
so what Mr.xu has been doing is,in a larger sense, vain in my opinion,at least for the current times, though pushing the society a little forward.
The key point of solutions which I think is the most plausible way is to improve the whole education level of chinese people,digesting the democratic and scientific spirit, which is the worst thing the chinese government have done in the last 30 years. Japan is a succuessful example at this point!
Of course, maybe my government never wanna do it at all.
and miaC, I am still listening.
A massive boycott of Chinese products - that's my wild dream. But you are getting a bit theoretical with a (sorry to say) cheap rationalism.
As a real, existential and effective (ie backed by money to spend) consumer, I demand value for my money. If our government and businesses don't take action against a despotic regime with very poor human rights and environment records, I take it into my hand to act as a consumer and express my preference. And that's part of my satisfaction, hence value.
"This is coming from the person who argues that judges should look at "popular indignation" when sentencing people."
It is true that Chinese judges should look at "popular indignation" when sentencing people. However, it is immoral for lawyers and media to incite popular indignation via lies and biased reports. And that is what Gongmeng and Western media is doing. So it explains why the Chinese general public are resentful towards Gongmeng and Western media.
A Singapore newspaper recently reported an interesting fact. A Britain journalist gave a live report in Urumqi but he was stopped by a Chinese young man, who scolded him: Don't assume that we don't understand English. What you said is wrong, you are lying! Your Western media is hostile to us. Stop lying and get out of China! Many people applauded this young man.
To be fair, not all Western media is lying. I think that BBC, Economist.com those Britain media are too biased. For example, this report about Gongmeng did not mention that Gongmeng received money from Yale University but hid this income to Chinese tax collection authorities. Britain media is very immoral because they often use imagination and "unconfirmed facts" as "news". In contrast, New York Times is much more professional. A recent report by NYT criticized China's officials. It gave names of reported figures and places and a detailed story. And it was cited by many Chinese websites.
It is fine to criticize China. And actually it is welcome by the Chinese people. But it is immoral for Britain media to use lies and fabricated "facts" to criticize China. Britain media (and all European media plus Australian media) have very bad reputation in China. I would suggest European journalists to pretend to be US journalists when you are traveling in China. Otherwise you are deemed as crooks by the general Chinese.
to justlistenall:
I do not know enough about the subject to be sure if this NGO/business is a legal organization or not, but their treatment by the government does not seem proper. If they are guilty of tax evasion, then court proceedings should be brought against them. If they are operating illegally, the business should be declared closed by official order, there should be no need to seize their property. If the business is illegal, there is no need to accuse them of tax evasion in the first place.
As to your questions, I have no answers for the first two as I do not know, but they seem to be more like veiled accusations than questions to me. Your third question, however, is incorrect for several reasons. First, "Paddy Wagons" are not typically used any more, your usage there is out-of-date. Second, the Department of Homeland Security is supposed to deal with terrorist threats against the US, not tax evasion or unlicesnsed businesses. That would be a problem for the IRS or for local authorities. The United States does not automatically assume that a tax evader is a terrorist, as you seem to suggest we should. Finally, if a U.S. police officer were to beat up an unarmed person for almost any reason then it is the POLICE who would be breaking the law, and they would most likely be tried in criminal court for it, in addition to being sued for damages by the person who was beaten and/or their family. If it is common practice to beat up unarmed persons in China without penalty, then it is not a practice regularly followed in the US.
On a Jul 24th 2009 Economist article entitled "New Jersey corruption investigations--A tangled web--A huge corruption investigation leads to a string of arrests in New Jersey", I submitted the following post:
["justlistenall wrote: July 24, 2009 16:34
Bad as it was, had this kind of bust happened in China, as did with the [Falungong] cult, the Western media would have a field day and likely reporting religious prosecution and human right abuses using trumped up charges."]
And Bingo it happened with this article and not a minute too soon it seems.
I also see the run of the mills of "regular and frequent fray-ers" of China bashers trying to have a field day here with some clown so thrilled of his chance to bash to gleefully crying out postings like ["Where are the PRC apologists on this one?"]. What a pity and have mercy on them. And I have news for them.
Folks, these guys involved are tax cheaters to begin with that even Economist article did not deny by merely meekly ducking on the issue.
Since they are half falsified-NGO as the Economist article awkwardly trying to cover by saying "The only way they can operate legally is as businesses". In other words or in translation, they are operating illegally in what they have been actually doing than what they were supposed to do per their business certificates.
My first question is why it took so long for the authority to take action to eradicate such illicit activities under "legitimate" fronts. (Then again it took about 10 years of police work details for the New Jersey bust referred herein.)
My second question is where and from whom did they get their revenue or fund to operate?
My third question or observation rather is: Had this happened in the US, they'd probably be busted and chained up into police paddy wagon by the police or Home Security people as they so deserve.
(See the accompanying picture of Economist article: "A huge corruption investigation leads to a string of arrests in New Jersey" for pictorial illustration.)
The Economist is doing its readers a disservice by hushing up such an article on the very eve of 1st Sino-American Strategic and Economic Summit to be held in Washington D.C. (To be inaugurated by the U.S. President Obama in person and remotely by Chinese President Hu on July 27th.)
An arm twisting or pressure side kicking prelude for the Summit on the bit part of Economist?
It's surely done sans style and with bad taste.
seems to me like the chinese government is a traitor to their own people. Do they really think they can keep this up forever.
In my opinion, the outcome of your suggestion would be terribly unfair. A massive boycott would cause unemployment and punish ordinary chinese citizens. Those people have absolutely nothing to do with the CCP's crackdown on NGOs. Moreover, we would also be punishing ourselves (with the biggest impact on the poor in our societies) since we benefit a lot from those products made in China ...
No I don't, please enlighten me.
As a consumer I express my opinion by boycotting products of some companies and countries to the extent I can identify. As for China, it is not always easy except food and clothes. I sometimes enquire retailers and manufacturers (thus I know that my Toshiba laptop was assembled in Thailand with most parts coming from there, for example), and share with them the reason why (human rights and environment) whenever I have a chance.
This is my grassroots action. What's wrong about it? Can't a consumer express his/her preference?
well, china and north korea are alike to some extent. after all they were intimate comrades not long ago.
boycotting a country by stopping buying its products? do you know how naive you are by saying things like this? what kind of country do you think china is? north korea?
zwyx, very true. It is also true that US and the west have been strengthening the CCP regime all along, while imposing sanctions on wretched countries such as Burma, Cuba, North Korea - - - it doesn't work because they are dirt poor to start with. But China may not want to go back to Mao's economy. If the west has any conscience and consistency of mind, stop buying Chinese products (which I've been doing for quite some time) and start withdrawing investment. It would even do a marvel to your own economy at this particular juncture.
What? You cannot do it because you are so indebted to China? Simple. The debt is in your currency: inflate it away (which you will be doing anyway).
"At the early stage, Gongmeng did help many people by providing free law services to poor people. However, in recent years, they tried to convert all cases to political events. THIS IS A VIOLATION OF THE MORAL OF LAYWERS!!! As a lawyer, one must fight for the right of defenders via facts, evidence, articles, NOT SLOGANs SUCH AS "DEMOCRACY, FREEDOM" ETC!"
This is coming from the person who argues that judges should look at "popular indignation" when sentencing people.

"Seriously, in the end of the day, won't they think like someday their children would feel ashamed for their parents or grandparents onced pathetically tried to stop the steping forward of the civilization of this great country."
Your question / comment is right on the money and pulse.
"China's Problem" resides in that the 1-party-CCP-government is afraid of loosing power if open elections among multi-party are held, startig at the lowest county level. E.G. ROC on Taiwan started general elections in 1996 when 4 parties elected 8 candidates (one president, one vice-president each) to campaign, but Kuomingtong (Nationalist Party) still won because all election law drafters and enforcement people still belong to Kuomingtong. Four years later, majority of highy educated people elected president Chen so Kuomingtong has to repent, regroup, and regenerate, yet it won back the presidency in 2008. President Ma is now around 50% popularity and starts to pay more attention to people's will because 70% polled view themselves as Taiwanese, not as affiliated with mainland.
Taiwan has no tendency to go back to one-party-dictatorship because "you know why". Taiwan is the light post of the mainlanders so Taiwan does not need any lessons from mainland.
This is a comment that everyone mainlander should know and should suggest the CCP government to repent and strive for democracy. This is every mainland citizen's "human and polical right born with" and obligation to their own generation and afterwards.
The PRC's current Constitution does not express the democratic thinking at all. On the contrary, it still has the Starlin/Lenin/Mao thoughts as governing guidelines and it still half-hearted-supporting-North-Korea's-brotherhood. Having continuous riots in remote areas, Xingjiang and Tibet, is no good testimony that current CCP policies are working well.
Talking about a 21st-century-dictatorship that is full of inconsistencies, corruption, and non-transparency. The tolken CCP-members-like-People's-Congress is also based on own CCP party's interest and doctrine. It is designed to appoint CCP-leadership, so how can real peoples' problems be solved according to the right priority?
Do mainland's testbooks teach students democracy at all?
At the early stage, Gongmeng did help many people by providing free law services to poor people. However, in recent years, they tried to convert all cases to political events. THIS IS A VIOLATION OF THE MORAL OF LAYWERS!!! As a lawyer, one must fight for the right of defenders via facts, evidence, articles, NOT SLOGANs SUCH AS "DEMOCRACY, FREEDOM" ETC! They received a big money from Yale University but never reported it as income. No wonder they were closed. This organization has corrupted and betrayed its original goal. Nice to see it was closed.
China should have more organizations to fight for the right of the poor, but not those organizations orchestrated by hostile Western countries to de-stabalize Chinese society.
Why is the Chinese government so frightened of its own people?
Is is because they have something to hide? Today's Straits Times, (the mainstream newspaper in Singapore)reported on page A28 that 90% of China's corporate world is ruled by the "Princelings", ie sons of senior officials. Hu Huafeng (38), son of Chinese President Hu Jintao is Chief of Tsinghua Holdings, the egroup which controls Nuctech and 30 other companies. Namibia is now conducting a graft investigation into Nuctech. In China, hardly anyone kows of the case! Hu Huafeng might have nothing to do with it, but then why the silence?
China will never become a great country until it really treats its citizens as real citizens with a say in the affairs of their own country.
" is there ever a GOOD year for free speech and human rights in China?"
I for one don't see why, the end of the first decade of 21 century, they(the Chinese government) still practice things like this. Can't they just open the country gradually, like they have been doing to the economy, this will be for their own good, if not the well-off of the Chinese people.
Seriously, in the end of the day, won't they think like someday their children would feel ashamed for their parents or grandparents onced pathetically tried to stop the steping forward of the civilization of this great country.
i think these NGOs should think another way to develope.Many NGOs are comprised of idealist who love the country very much and care about the people in the lower rank.They want to defend their rights.They are admirable,especially when everybody in China try his best to earn money,they are the real elite and the hope of the country. It is the progress of the society,it was impossible to develope such organization 30 years ago.
But these NGOs must realize that they can not do well by idealism.There is a tration that the emperor and government are very fear of the organizations which can challenge their authority ,they were worried about if these organizations would overthrow themselves,so it was difficult to survive for all kinds of societies.Now the tradition still work.Human right issues are very sensitive in China for government,so if you do such things ,that means that you are challenging the government,then the result is obviously.These societies should not challenge the government face-to-face,although there are many NGOs,but they are too weak before the governments.In China,although the economy developes very quickly,there are too many problems we need to solve,which the NGOs can take part in ,such as enviroment and poverty,not only the human right issues.Such enviroment problems is lack of political colour and in accordance with the central government,if NGOs focus on these issues,they can learn how to deal with government,how to develope themselves.
Where are the PRC apologists on this one?
I went on the OCI website and looked around and found nothing really "subversive" that they did. The only thing that they seem to have done that may seem a bit political is the Tibet criticism. I think that the authorities are a bit too sensitive and perhaps other NGO's based on legal issues can side-step this problem by being a bit more narrowly focused.
OCI seems to have mostly concentrated their efforts on being the consumers' advocate and it seems they should have stayed focused that way -- let Tibet NGO's do the Tibet things. It's a loss to the ordinary citizen that OCI will be put out of business.
A SINA hosted blog of one of the fouding members of OCI is now a broken link. One other BLOG (linkable from the English OCI site) is still up... so far)

Plenty of heavy lifting still awaits the Alaska Aces, though they now face that labor in friendly, familiar surroundings.
After avoiding ECHL playoff elimination with Sunday night's 4-2 win at Stockton in Game 5 of the best-of-7 Western Conference semifinal series, the Aces on Tuesday night entertain the Thunder in Game 6 at Sullivan Arena.
Only four times in the league's 25-season history has a team escaped a 3-1 series deficit, like the one the Aces confronted Sunday, and won three consecutive games to seize the series.
For what it's worth, three of those comeback clubs took the path the Aces are trying to negotiate -- a Game 5 road win followed by two home wins.
If the Aces win Game 6, Game 7 would be Wednesday night at Sullivan.
Yet, home ice doesn't necessarily tilt the ice heavily in Alaska's favor. After all, Stockton won Game 2 in Anchorage.
"We should feel confident coming home, but, saying that, we can't expect it to be easy,'' said Aces coach Rob Murray. "We have to expect to battle as hard as we did (Sunday).''
Aces captain Steve Ward said getting back to home ice is appealing in an exhausting series -- Monday was a travel day after the teams played three games in four nights at Stockton Arena.
"It's still do or die,'' Ward said. "It's going to be exciting to go back to the Sully. Hopefully, we can get the place bumping and get on them early, and then we'll see what happens.
"We've got to be ready to go. With the quick turnaround, we'll have to feed off the fans.''
The Aces trailed late in the second period of Game 5 after Stockton's Maxime Boisclair struck on the power play less than two minutes before intermission. But Aces center Nick Mazzolini generated the equalizer with less than one second remaining in the period, scoring through traffic in front of the Thunder net. That goal marked Mazzolini's second in two games and hinted the Aces' regular-season scoring leader is working his way out of a playoff slump.
"There weren't a lot of open spaces,'' Mazzolini said of his goal. "I'm hoping it's a sign things are starting to turn around.''
Mazzolini, of Anchorage, said he's eager to play again on home ice, where friends and family are always present.
"It's a big boost going back home,'' he said. "(Murray) gave us a great speech, saying, 'Play for someone who's in your heart.' I've got the luxury of doing that every night.''
Shuffling the deck
The Aces are 2-2 on the road in the playoffs, splitting games with both San Francisco in the first round and Stockton in this series.
Stockton is 1-4 on the road in the playoffs. The Thunder lost all three of their first-round games at Las Vegas and split games at Sullivan.
Both teams no doubt would like much more out of their power-play units. Stockton is just 1 for 21 (4.8-percent efficiency) in the series and 3 for 45 (6.7 percent) in the playoffs. Alaska is just 2 for 19 (10.5 percent) in the series and 7 for 44 (15.9 percent) in the playoffs.
In Game 5 Sunday, the Aces struggled to even get the puck into the Thunder zone and set up, getting stymied time and again when they tried to enter the Stockton zone. Part of the problem, Murray said, is the Aces are consistently losing face-offs, which allows Stockton to clear the puck the length of the ice, which eats up Alaska's power-play time and makes it come up the entire rink.
