This is a wonderful picture that epitomizes what DPP members are like. Good job, The Economist!
Leon HAHA,Sure I'm totally unprepared for the diplomatic language, and so did Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, look at the transcript of their meeting with Zhou Enlai (Page 5): http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB106/NZ-1.pdfExcerpt:Dr. Kissinger when he was here stated our agreement to five principles. I completely endorse these principles, and the Prime Minister can count on that no matter what we say on other subjects.Principle one. There is one China, and Taiwan is a part of China....Again, check your facts before you post so that you don't waster other people's time.
despite what pundits say about China and Taiwan, i wouldn't worry. one must look at a nation's history in spans of hundreds of years, not just in the next quarter or even in our own lifetime. as such, Taiwanese de facto "independence" is just a blip in a long timeline. and so is China's relative weakness vis-a-vis other nations. from China's perspective, Taiwan being apart temporarily may even beneficial in that it allows a component of China to experiment with an "alien" political system, test a "different" economic path, and acquire sophisticated technology and weaponry from the Americans, because in the long run they will benefit China anyway. China is actively evolving and doing what it needs to do, whether foreigners are happy or not. eventually, China will be stronger and more prosperous. if you are a leader in China, would you wait at the sidelines of history answering comments? or would you go ahead and directly make events happen?
dear feelsonatural
No matter how the Ming, Ching or the dynasties treat Taiwan, it's a de facto province of China even in Qin dynasty.
And, do the word Taiwan exist before long? No!
Actually, most people in Taiwan now are descents of Han people from Taiwan, especially from Southern Fujian. We are one race.
As for the ethnicity issue, is there a country known as Arabia? Is there a country called Africa? Or Latin America? We can share the same ethnicity but don't necessarily have to share the same country, or ideology! So simple!
For those who hold Chinese pride, if China is like France, or England, or Canada, etc, everyone would volunteer to be part of it, no weapons or threats needed!
Why? Those countries have less bribery, less pollution, more law-abiding people and are simply more charming! If China want real respect, earn it with respect,humanity and decency! Not by attitude, pride and force!
Bighuge: "You (USA UK and so on) are a liar and robber since 1840 that have invade china"... while China is a liar and robber that invades Tibet, Xinjiang, Mongolia, and more if you go back further.Please reason your arguments rather than just getting angry. Why is Taiwan part of China? You will undoubtedly say that it is historically part of China, or ethnically part of China, but neither of those is true of Tibet, Xinjiang or Mongolia. So China is hypocritical, as well as a liar and a robber.
The Eight, you are ethnic Chinese, aren't you? Do you recognize Republic of China? Well too bad, you are still Chinese if you want to say that you are citizen of Republic of China! If a British American says he is American, he wouldn't deny that he is of British descent, would he? That is why you live in a parallel universe. What do you call North Korean and South Korean? West German and East German? - Heck I am an East German, but NOT a German! Sorry I don't think you deserve much response besides this.
Let the drama continue, for some people refuse to move on.If I want to be a little nicer, I would say this to the Green and Economist:Stay cool baby, stay cool.To the Red and the Blue, wink.
Ulrich123If you said "why must Taiwan be subject to a Han ethnic commitment?" was absolutely correct! If such was the case, I cannot understand why Winston Churchill penned his famous "Blood is sticker than water". In your eyes as historian (I presume) was he a narrow-minded Englishman or just hero of Angle-Saxon race! Note: I respect him for his iron-will leadership in Britain's time of need.For east to understand west's philosophy of soldiers surrender to the enemy when they were outnumbered, short of ammunition etc so as to save precious lives from vanishing is just like west cannot appreciate why soldiers especially general must die rather then handed over his sward and pistol to his enemy counterpart.The above are military philosophy and very cruel and fine that they also touching on east and west's deep-rooted cultural perceptions and upbringing.
There are so many people show their interets in this issue, What makes them pay so much attention on it if they are not Chinese? I am a little puzzled.
I made a bit amendment of the words spoken by BfordC:
"Prior to the Japanese invasion of Taiwan,... There was (always) a mass influx of Chinese refugees" fleeing to Taiwan....
To tell the truth, that made up the origion of most Taiwanese population.
No matter you count 100 years or 200 years or 300 years, there were always "Chinese refugees" came over the strait to Taiwan. History of Taiwan didn't begin only at the 100 years ago, an information for those keep on saying "In the last 100 years, Taiwan was part of China for 5 years."
Being there for independence or reunification, that's up for you. But please stop twisting and mincing the history to fit your cause.
As president Ma said, Taiwan would consider reuniting with mainland only after China became a democratic country. I'm from Guangdong, mainland China, but I fully understand what Taiwan feel. If Guangdong is a democratic "territory" like Taiwan, I wouldn't agree to be ruled by communists, either!
Germany setup a perfect model for China's situation. Are Chinese people ingenious as Germans? Or, are we willing to be ingenious?
China's influence, or to say threating as deemed by Taiwan or Western countries, is growing gradually. Western countries are too smart to defend Taiwan from mainland's potential invasion, although every Chinese knows that CCP dare not to take real action. So the dilemma is Taiwan economy's reliance on mainland is escalating day by day, while their people's fear to mainland China is growing in the meatime. The more Taiwan's elite benifit from mainland, the more Taiwan's grass roots hate mainland.
Too bad a wise people is doing such stupid things!
CCP leaders must face the fact that any nation need democracy, sooner or later. Why can't they be as great as George Washington? Is it fun to be a nation's criminal?
Taiwan people should feel contempt of the missles which would never be fired. Trust me, corrupted CCP is not able to fight a war against Taiwan with help from Japan and USA. Read the history of Sino-Japan Naval Battle. Qing dynasty boasted of world's 4th strongest navy, while Japan was tiny small in Qing emperor's view. But Japan destroyed Qing dynasty navy completely and lost no warship at all! Current CCP regime is equally corrupted as Qing, and Hu knows it well. Taiwan should be strong and give up the artificial feeling of being oppressed. They need to realize they shoulder Han people's destiny! Declaring independence is a coward's choice.
I am Malaysia Chinese and just hope China and Taiwan will put aside the ideology fight. Reality is Taiwan run as a country but most Chinese (Taiwan or Mainland Chinese)wants both to unite and restore the Chinese great civilization. Deng XiaPeng mentioned before CHina willing to change flag, song or whatever to accommodate Taiwan requirement for the country unification. But Deng time didn't allow due to economy and social-political different. With China success in economy and current political reform. I hope one day we will see both side siting together.
lost goal,
taiwan is de-facto independent, if not de-jure. you are right in principle, that territorial integrity is vital to any state's existence.
yet taiwan's de-facto independence lasts almost 60 years now. it is time that china acknowledges that truth. progress can only come from truth. it is not 1948 (or 1894 for that matter) any more.
west germany re-united peacefully east germany in 1990. but only after it recognized the existence of east germany in the 1970s. that took just under 30 years.
what gain does china have from threatening taiwan? china can gain much more from taiwan in investment, technology and know-how transfer etc. if it reverted to peaceful means. not to mention international respectability.
taiwan does have a choice. it can surrender to the PRC (inciting civil war with Taiwanese), it can unilaterally declare independence (thus being annihilated) or it continue muddling through with the status quo, the wisest choice under present circumstances.
when the PRC become the "shining city on the hill" with rule of law and respect of human rights, people in taiwan may feel differently, whether it's joining a nation state or a federation.
Those rioters shamed Taiwan and drove away any potential sympathy they might get.
small fry,Ok, I get your point. I wish there are more people like you!I can see that you do try to understand the other perspective.I appreciate it!Lost Goal,Mind you that the envoys were not invited by the people, only Ma and his little group. Secondly, Ma did not convey his idea to the people, he did it out of his own will. The people felt that their voices were unheard. And mind you that the envoy who was pushed down used to be known as a hardliner, always adopted a bullish attitude towards Taiwan. It was wrong to physically push him, I admit it, but I can also understand how the people felt!Anyway, why do Taiwan matter so much to China anyway? China is big enough, rich enough, powerful enough, why take Taiwan so serious? China not having Taiwan is so insignificant; Taiwan being overshadowed by China means 50 or so years of hard work, democracy earned going down the drain! Be generous! Does the big dragon enjoy picking on the little country? Taiwan would even consider join China if it is really improved. That's all! Show some generosity for once!
feelsonaturalYour appreciation touches me, Thank you very much!Yours and Taiwanese worry is understandable but not necessary be too worrisome while keeping en eye of surveillance.Before Hong Kong's reversion to China, emigration and flowing out of capitals etc almost killed the Hong Kong's economy yet it survived with doomsayers shaking their heads that how could the cracking not happening.Taiwan has many negotiation tramp cards such as democracy etc; The 30 or 50 years transition period is an acid test for China to show her sincerity and iron will to fulfill the promises.Taiwan and South Korea were once ruled by dictators and why became democratic? It was due mainly to wealth, education and the middle class that compelled leaders at the helm discerning that the history tide cannot be turned away; Power returning to the peoples was unavoidable. The Politburo of the CCP are make-up peoples of technocrats and trained graduates; From time to time, they invited scholars/professors lecturing them history, economics, financial trends etc to widen their knowledge and scope of views. They are not warlords who knew only guns and beauty.PRC's strict observation of the Basic Laws enacted for Hong Kong and Macao can be a guiding light for Taiwan to observe and monitoring the enforcement etc. One most important aspect is they respect the rule of laws and judiciary impartiality which is the very basis of democracy.When mainlanders are getting richer and richer, do you think they don't fight for their human rights etc? Certainly yes!By that time, Taiwanese will not feel alienated in joining the big family. Both are Chinese, the feeling of surrender would disappear in no time when the big day has come for the reunion. I am old but I still hope in my life time I could see it happened and clapping hands for all Chinese the world over.
feelsonatural,Sure you have a reason to be angry at Ma, and you have the right to express your anger, but it doesn't justify beating up our envoys and journalists, does it?The point I have been trying to make here is that, there is no such country named "Taiwan" yet, yes I understand your request for independence, but your request is no different than others', such as those of Scotland and Corsica. There is no guarantee you can succeed, and there is no absolute right and wrong here, this is politics.You think a unification will hurt your pride and dignity, I also think your independence will hurt mine. You say the mainland is threatening using military measures to prevent separation, I say you have always been resorting to military measures to prevent unification. Both sides of the strait are in similar madness, there is no such thing as who is suppressing or bullying whom, and no one is morally higher than the other side.I think the problem with many Taiwanese is that they overstate the importance of independence to them and they underestimate the importance of unification to us mainlanders. They try to seize the moral high ground and claim they are being persecuted by the "communist China", this works because many people's minds are still staying in the Cold War era, but heck, it's healthier to come back to reality and do something useful.There are plenty of independence movements in the world, they exist in almost every single country, those succeeded are only a very small fraction. I don't see why those of China are especially highlighted, and why they all act like it would be the end of world if they fail.
small fry,
I must say you have written a convincing piece. Unlike the usual Chinese rhetoric, you have provided a pragmatic view. Now we are really talking, even though I don't totally agree with you.
Time is on China side, you are right! China has the power, no doubt! Taiwan is risking war with China if it declares independence, true!
At the end of the day, I guess it's to do with pride and dignity more than being save. You might not like it but many in Taiwan still regard China as an enemy, what are we to tell our kids if we surrender? It may sound stupid to you but it's about dignity which I think has a higher value than life.
There is also a fear that democracy will disappear, this might be something the Chinese don't understand. For the Chinese, as long as the economy is booming, everything is rosy. It makes sense since China was still relatively poor 15 years ago.
For Taiwanese freedom of speech is important, if not more important.
I suspect Small Fry is really what his/her name suggests, a small fry of the CCP's overseas propaganda branch, as I once was one of them in PRC as a newspaper reporter for one of the major media organizations. What Small Fry said about China, peace loving nation and all that are standard expressions of the Chinese official ideology.
The Taiwanese businesses choose mainland China not South America, even they are equally corrupt, for a simple reason, which is mainland China is easier, without cultural obstacles as in SA, instead, where personal networks are easily established. My personal experience in mainland China supports my observations on the Taiwanese business people.
Talking about "peace loving Chinese", as a bachelor majoring the Chinese Ancient History, I have to say, I do appreciate your support to my people while pointing out the shortcomings of your statement, which is amateurish at its best and downright inaccurate academically.
History shows, if we take a broader view of history, that the Chinese are as peace loving as any other nation. The Great Wall example can also show that the Chinese had reached their physical limitations on their northern front. Let me point out a historical fact that under WUDI (the Martial Emperor) in Han Dynasty, several attempts had been made to wipe out the northern tribes with devastating results to the Han court. The Chinese economy then simply was not capable of raising so many horses and soldiers to fight a prolong war in a foreign land where its climate was drastically different from what the Han people were accustomed to.
Anyway, it is interesting to see that the CCP has achieved such a great reach in Western media, and more interesting still to see how the Western readers react to its effort.

Empyrean Capital Partners increased its position in Yahoo! Inc. by 62%, bringing its total number of shares to 5.3 million.
I'm increasing my shares by 100%.
I added to my shares too. Yahoo is about to turn green with the DOW down 100 points. Shorts are losing everything.
WOW!!! NOw you got 2 Whole shares!!
Don't spend it all in one place!
Empyrean Partners?? Man, you are digging at the bottom of the barrell! I'VE got more money than them!! How utterly Stupid are you??
Why don't you tell us what The Sisters of the Monastey are doing?
The referenced entity (I don't know whoever they are...), bought 5.3 million shares, not 5.3 shares as you misread. That is 5,300,000 shares!
So dude, how many million shares you have money for? I know whatever answer you give is going to be a fantasy of yours, but at least we will see what's your capacity to fantasize?
Sentiment: Buy
Everybody is buying Yahoo.

Hello my name is Dustin and I am the director and level designer of D.B Creation Dev Team. I am a big "Metal Gear Solid" fan and I thought I create a remake of the "Big Shell" of MGS 2. Since I'm 10, I played the game on the Playstation 2 now so I know everything about the game, for example: Movement Soldiers, Soldiers team working, all the secrets, all the gears and of course the construction of the "Big Shell". So i hope you like my Idea and track this mod. THANKS TO ALL MY FANS

Heater plumbing
The heater core, which is located in the dashboard of your car, is really a small radiator. The heater fan blows air through the heater core and into the passenger compartment of your car
A heater core looks like a small radiator.
The heater core draws its hot coolant from the cylinder head and returns it to the pump -- so the heater works regardless of whether the thermostat is open or closed.
For more information on car cooling systems and related topics, check out the links on the next page.
Check all fluid levels and adjust as needed, before operating vehicle for extended periods at idle.

I have a funny, quiet-before-the-storm feeling because this could be one of the last weeks on the calendar before full-on holiday madness sets in. So why not take advantage of these last, few mellow days to indulge in a little old-fashioned embroidery and get some holiday prep done at the same time? These handmade, hand-embroidered napkins are just the thing to add a little crafty flair to your Thanksgiving table — or to take along as a hostess gift. Sewing the napkins themselves is super easy with a trick that makes mitered corners, and the embroidery is simple as can be. I know most people tend to run screaming when they hear the words hand embroidery ("doesn't that take FOREVER??"), but in this project, a little stitching goes a long way. I promise that it's truly quick and easy! You can literally embroider each napkin in minutes. The end result is a lovely handmade item that might just be something to keep forever. — Brett Bara
CLICK HERE for the full how-to after the jump!
- linen fabric or a linen blend (I used a cotton-linen blend); the amount you need depends on how many napkins you want to make
- ruler
- pencil
- iron
- sewing machine
- embroidery floss
- embroidery needle
Planning and Cutting
For each napkin, cut a square of fabric that is 1″ longer on each side than your desired finished size. So, if you want to make a 10″ napkin, cut your squares 12″ x 12″. This is a nice size for a cocktail napkin; for a dinner napkin, a good finished size is a 20″ square.
Be sure to cut each square as precisely as possible, as this will help you get nice mitered corners. A cutting mat, straight edge and rotary cutter are really helpful in this case, but you can get the job done with scissors; just measure carefully and make sure your corners are square.
1. Iron the hems:
Turn one edge of the fabric to the wrong side a scant 1/2″ and press. Note: it really pays to make sure the edges in this step are measured and folded accurately, so if it helps, measure with a ruler and lightly mark the fabric with a pencil so that your fold is even all around. (This will ensure nice and even mitered corners.)
Rotate the square 90 degrees and iron the next edge in the same way. Continue until all four sides have been turned up and pressed a scant 1/2″.
Next, turn the hem up another 1/2″ on one side and press, then continue working all the way around until all four sides have been turned up twice.
2. Make the mitered corners:
Unfold the folds you just made. Here, I've drawn over the fold lines to make them easier to see, but you can just use the folds themselves as a guide (no need to write all over your napkins!).
Draw an (imaginary) line diagonally across the corner, connecting the folded points as shown with the dotted line.
Trim the corner off at that line.
Next, fold each side in 1/2″ along the previous fold lines.
Then fold the corner flap down as shown.
Finally, fold each side in again along the previous fold lines. And voila! The corners are neatly mitered, with all the raw edges of the fabric hidden inside.
3. Sew the hem:
Using your sewing machine, zip around all four sides of the hem, sewing close to the folded edge. At each corner, pivot and keep sewing; you can sew the entire hem in one continuous seam. (If you don't have a sewing machine, you can easily do this by hand.)
And the hem is complete!
4. Add the embroidery:
To make the straight-stitch embroidery, simply weave the needle in and out of the fabric, going around all four sides of the napkin. Very easy!
To make the cross-stitch embroidery, first make a series of slanted lines all going in the same direction.
Then work your way back, completing each X.
With embroidery, it's good practice to make as few knots as possible, so when you begin a line of stitching, leave the embroidery-floss end hanging on the back side. Then, when you reach the beginning point again, tie the two ends together in one small knot and trim the ends.
And that's all there is to it! As I'm sure you can imagine, you can easily get creative and add any type of embroidery you like — a monogram would look especially fantastic on these!
Brett, you are such a pro. I absolutely love your posts. Inspiring, clear, and beautiful.
beautifully done!
it's the little details, isn't it? :)
Ah the mitered corner – I've wondered how to do that! Thanks!
Thank you! How did you know my daughter was asking yesterday about making embroidered holiday gifts?
Very beautiful !
I've tried to fake this for ages – I'm not generally so great in the sewing dept. Now I know and I want to go sew corners! Thanks!!
gorgeous – making some personalized ones to send along in school lunches
Loving this!
Thanks for these lovely instructions! Everyone is going to get napkins from me for Christmas!
aw perfect for a housewarming gift I'm due to make!
Thanks SO much for this — I've made a zillion napkins but never with mitred corners! This is super helpful!
Just wonderful! Thank you for such clear photos and instructions; this D*S column makes me so happy!
wow, this actually looks doable. yes i can! thanks for making me feel motivated! xo
This is PERFECT. Instructions are clear as day. These would make a great wedding gift.
These are amazing! I've been wanting to tackle a project such as this for a very long time! Your directions inspire me! Thank you for being so clear.
Yay! I've been wondering how to make mitered corners for the longest time. Can't wait to try it out.
Seriously? Awesome. THANK YOU for the clear, concise directions. I'll be using them soon!!
ooooo I LOVE this! very creative and it doesn't look too complicated. Can't wait to try it out :)
Excellent instructions. Love the cheater corner and not sewing the mitered edges together.
I'm all over this! Thank you SO much for your excellent directions and detailed pictures!
I was just thinking that I should make some fancy napkins for Christmas, and wondered how to do the mitered corner. Thanks!
Oh Merci for that really well explained tutorial! Great pictures on the step by step!
These days I was thinking how to add some new things for our dinning room.
This is the most suitable handy one. :)
Brett,I have another timesaver for you. If you cut a length of cardboard or plastic (I use pattern making plastic) 1′ wide and use it for pressing guide -you will have a 1′ folded edge that will be pressed into itself for the 1/2 ' finished-much faster than measuring with ruler-. And here is a trick that my mom taught me many years ago. At the end of project,instead of cutting embroidery thread close to knot,rethread back onto needle and feed inbetween hem and front of napkin. Cut the threadsclose to napkin. They will pop back inside of hem never to be seen again! I also do this when I am topstitching.The napkins look great by the way. I shall use this idea for a piece of linen stripe that I have been saving for something special!
Beautifully done mitered corners. I've always struggled with those. This posting definitely gives me some ideas for Christmas gifts.
Thanks for posting this…it's really simple, but oh-so-pretty. They'd make beautiful gifts, too!
I love a good mitered corner tute (as I am really challenged with this concept). Thanks a bunch!
Thanks, it looks very do-able. Really nice.
i am an amateur seamstress, at best. my late grandmother gifted her sewing machine to me last year, assuming i was the right person to have it. finally, after a year of seeing it collect dust in my closet, i pulled it out to attempt a couple DIY projects from D*S. as novice as i am, i was able to make some very cute napkins for my thanksgiving table and understood all the instructions! thanks for the clarity, the creativity, and for being the catalyst to me honoring my grandma ana well. :)
Oh I love these
very very nice and cozy
Well…the best understandable instructions for mitered corners,I have tried on a number of times before…so thanks…I can now get on with it. will send pictures.
Yeah! I am so glad you did this. I have been wanting to do this but too lazy to do it. This will force me to get started!!
I can't believe how easy this is! I've always wanted to make napkins with beautiful edges and now I know how! Hmmm, do I have any linen in my fabric stash???
Thank you for the great tutorial!
Oh I just adore these simple, sweet napkins! I am absolutely going to make myself a set!
I've done mitered corners a dozen times before but somehow drew a blank when I tried them again this time. Went to my books and even with them open by my side I just couldn't visualize it. Tried A LOT of web sites and then came across this. And it came to me again – clear, concise – beautiful. Thank you thank you. These are gorgeous.
Thank you for a great tutorial!
These are so pretty! I would like to put a link on my blog, if that`s ok for you.
Muito obrigada pela dica; maravilhosa!
O.O That is the cutest napkin I've ever seen! Can't wait to whip some up myself!
Eu amei seu jeito de fazer canto mitrado, fica um trabalho
perfeito. Obrigada por nos ensinar.Deus te abençoe muito.
I so appreciate how professional and articulate your blog posts are! Thanks! Your blog is my go-to!
I love this project! It seems simple and is beautiful. Thank you very much for sharing the tutorial. I just featured a link to this and your other tutorial for the wool felt potholders on my blog.
The tutorial is wonderfully done. Easy to follow and really make the napkins look professional. Great job! Thanks for sharing!
Trabalho limpo e muito bem feito!
Obrigada pela explicação.

Un gran abrazo.
Lola Valdívia
obrigada!estava à procura a muito tempo bjs Adenis
Дякую за МК, професійно і доступно
The best instruction for mitered corners on napkins I've seen on the Internet. Thank you.
This is great, thank you. I don't have time to embroider, I might embroider a few, but the sewing instructions seem good, I'm a beginner at sewing. Is it difficult to sew linen with a sewing machine?
The material is expensive, but so is buying the amount of 100% linen napkins I'd need for a full set.
Thanks! Great job!
I really loved this tutorial. Now I'm going to make my own napkins, thank you so much.

Jonathan Swift
A Description of a City Shower
Careful Observers may fortel the Hour
(By sure Prognosticks) when to dread a Show'r:
While Rain depends, the pensive Cat gives o'er
Her Frolicks, and pursues her Tail no more.
Returning Home at Night, you'll find the Sink
Strike your offended Sense with double Stink.
If you be wise, then go not far to Dine,
You spend in Coach-hire more than save in Wine.
A coming Show'r your shooting Corns presage,
Old Aches throb, your hollow Tooth will rage.
Sauntring in Coffee-house is Dulman seen;
He damns the Climate, and complains of Spleen.
Mean while the South rising with dabbled Wings,
A Sable Cloud a-thwart the Welkin flings,
That swill'd more Liquor than it could contain,
And like a Drunkard gives it up again.
Brisk Susan whips her Linen from the Rope,
While the first drizzling Show'r is born aslope,
Such is that Sprinkling which some careless Quean
Flirts on you from her Mop, but not so clean.
You fly, invoke the Gods; then turning, stop
To rail; she singing, still whirls on her Mop.
Not yet, the Dust had shun'd th'unequal Strife,
But aided by the Wind, fought still for Life;
And wafted with its Foe by violent Gust,
'Twas doubtful which was Rain, and which was Dust.
Ah! where must needy Poet seek for Aid,
When Dust and Rain at once his Coat invade;
Sole Coat, where Dust cemented by the Rain,
Erects the Nap, and leaves a cloudy Stain.
Now in contiguous Drops the Flood comes down,
Threat'ning with Deloge this Devoted Town.
To Shops in Crouds the dagled Females fly,
Pretend to cheapen Goods, but nothing buy.
The Templer spruce, while ev'ry Spout's a-broach,
Stays till 'tis fair, yet seems to call a Coach.
The tuck'd-up Sempstress walks with hasty Strides,
While Streams run down her oil'd Umbrella's Sides.
Here various Kinds by various Fortunes led,
Commence Acquaintance underneath a Shed.
Triumphant Tories, and desponding Whigs,
Forget their Fewds, and join to save their Wigs.
Box'd in a Chair the Beau impatient sits,
While Spouts run clatt'ring o'er the Roof by Fits;
And ever and anon with frightful Din
The Leather sounds, he trembles from within.
So when Troy Chair-men bore the Wooden Steed,
Pregnant with Greeks, impatient to be freed,
(Those Bully Greeks, who, as the Moderns do,
Instead of paying Chair-men, run them thro'.)
Laoco'n struck the Outside with his Spear,
And each imprison'd Hero quak'd for Fear.
Now from all Parts the swelling Kennels flow,
And bear their Trophies with them as they go:
Filth of all Hues and Odours seem to tell
What Streets they sail'd from, by the Sight and Smell.
They, as each Torrent drives, with rapid Force
From Smithfield, or St.Pulchre's shape their Course,
And in huge Confluent join at Snow-Hill Ridge,
Fall from the Conduit prone to Holborn-Bridge.
Sweepings from Butchers Stalls, Dung, Guts, and Blood,
Drown'd Puppies, stinking Sprats, all drench'd in Mud,
Dead Cats and Turnips-Tops come tumbling down the Flood.

Abu Dhabi is once again pushing back the opening of local branches of the Louvre and Guggenheim art museums, after a fresh review of the projects, the government's tourism arm said on Wednesday.
January 25, 2012 2:11 by Reuters
The Louvre Abu Dhabi, a spin-off of the famous Paris museum, will now open in 2015 while Abu Dhabi's branch of New York's Guggenheim, will open in 2017, Tourism Development & Investment Company (TDIC) said in a statement.
The Zayed National Museum will open in 2016, the statement said. All the three museums were originally scheduled to open between 2013 and 2014.
Abu Dhabi, capital of the United Arab Emirates, has plans to invest billions of dollars in tourism, infrastructure and industry to diversify its economy away from oil.
Across the oil-rich state, which accounts for more than half of the United Arab Emirates' economy, government-backed real estate, commercial and tourism projects, many conceived during the boom years of 2003-2008, are under review and in some cases being delayed or put on hold.
In October, the emirate delayed the opening of the Louvre and Guggenheim branches and the Zayed National Museum planned for the Saadiyat Island, a $27 billion project incorporating art, culture and resorts.
The Abu Dhabi Executive Council, the emirate's advisory body on Tuesday said it approved a raft of multi-billion dollar projects including the museums. It did not state the budgets or timelines.
"These institutions are strategic components of the Abu Dhabi Government's vision for the Emirate and this timeline has been finalised in close coordination with its partners and advisors, Agence France Museums, The British Museum, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation," the statement said.
Substantial work has already been completed on the museums. Detailed architectural designs have now been finalised, as well as all foundation and piling work, the statement added without giving details of costs. (Reporting by Stanley Carvalho; Editing by Helen Massy-Beresford)

Mark the injection site by drawing a small circle on the patient's forearm. As an alternative, place a small adhesive bandage over the injection site and instruct the patient to keep it covered until he has the test read. If the test is negative, it might be difficult to know where the injection was placed. Instruct the person to return within 48 to 72 hours.
How to Read a PPD Test
Tuberculosis is a bacterial disease that affects the lungs. It is difficult to treat because it is resistant to most antibiotics and often is treated for months. Tuberculosis can be fatal if left untreated. The bacteria can spread through the bloodstream and cause infection in other areas of the body. Health care workers are often required to be tested for exposure to TB. The most common test is the injection of PPD -- purified protein derivative -- which is an antigen of TB underneath the skin. The test is read between 48 and 72 hours after the injection.
Things You'll Need
- Pen or semi-permanent marker
- Adhesive bandage
Examine the patient's arm at the injection site. If the skin is flat and flesh colored, the test is considered negative. If there is a red, raised bump at the injection site, she might have been exposed to tuberculosis.
Perform further diagnostic testing for patient's with a positive PPD test. This includes blood work, chest X-ray and sputum analysis. These tests will confirm a diagnosis of TB.

The kitchen is well-furnished with ample dish ware and glassware, high-end SS utensils, and all the accessories and cookware to please the most demanding chefs.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a pristine dedicated laundry room with full size front-load washer & dryer along with a washing sink, two closets and plenty of cabinets for storage.
The master suite is truly fit for royalty with its regal Tommy Bahama king-size poster bed, large 42' flat screen TV and incredible views of the Gulf of Mexico.

The heated resort style pool is long enough for lap swimming. An eight person whirlpool spa is situated next to the private pool along with several covered cabanas for protection from the sun, gas grills and outdoor showers for rinsing off. Unlike most hotels, with Sandpearl's spacious, well equipped pool deck you will never have a problem finding a lounge chair to bask in the Florida sunshine.

The 4 Diamond Sandpearl Resort & Spa (rated #8 Worldwide by Expedia Insider's Select) next door has a beautiful spa where you can pamper yourself to facials, pedicures, manicures and massages. There is also a beach-side café (Tate Grill) with live entertainment and even a fire-pit nuzzled in the dunes, not to mention the city's only AAA 4 Diamond restaurant, Caretta on the Gulf. If you have more guests in town than beds in the unit, this property provides exceptional accommodations.
The convenient location of the Residences means you can walk to the area's fabulous restaurants, listen to live music & watch the sunset at Pier 60, and experience all the water activities Clearwater Beach & Marina have to offer (like Dolphin & Pirate Cruises, jet-skis, charter boat fishing and para-sailing). With the Sandpearl Resort right next door, as well as the beach, dining, shopping, and nightlife just steps away, you won't even need to get into your car (securely parked in parking garage). Farther away you can enjoy several top-notch golf courses, world-class museums (Dali in St. Petersburg) and professional sporting events (Rays, Buccaneers and Lightning).
Raised in central Florida with fathers working at the Kennedy Space Center, we both have a lifetime of fond memories of beach days, beach escapes, beach get-a-ways, and fun-filled family beach vacations. Our love of the ocean spans decades as does our romance. High school sweethearts (married for 28 years and counting) and fellow UF graduates, Jeff and Gina have four children. Jordan attends Orangewood Christian High School; while Josh, Jake and Jared go to FSU. Jeff has owned an Allstate Insurance Agency since 1990, achieving the highest company award of Top in Country. He also did consulting for 4 years with both Allstate Corporate and individual agencies countrywide; streamlining processes, increasing production, incorporating inventive marketing, maximizing potential revenue, and stressing customer service. Soon after having their fourth child (4 in 4 years), Gina "retired" from her actuarial position to assist Jeff and raise their lively bunch. With a house full of teenagers, Gina likewise knows a thing or two about particular "customers". Pooling very different skill sets but very common passions, we make perfect partners. We are truly blessed, loving what we do and loving doing it together! We have built our home on faith, family, and fun; and strive to build our rental business on the same.
Jeff & Gina purchased this condo in 2013
This condo is simply impeccable and is so beautifully appointed. Sandpearl Residences is located right in the heart of Clearwater Beach, next to the famous Pier 60 with all its activities, shops and wide variety of restaurants just a short walk away. At this time, Sandpearl is by far the most luxurious 5-star resort in Clearwater Beach.
The complex has all the top amenities one can ask for, including 24-hour concierge service, heated Olympic size pool, private cabanas, club house with pool table and much more.
The condo has the latest kitchen appliances, huge flat screen TV's in every room, Dolby surround sound in living room, very high-end bathrooms and furniture. We loved the view from every room and the decor screamed luxury. We were able to walk to almost anything we wanted including simple groceries at the nearby CVS, 24-hr Walgreens or HESS station. Some of the beach's best restaurants are literally a couple of minutes walk away.
We absolutely loved our stay and will be coming back to this condo on a yearly basis.
This was our fourth stay in Cleawater Beach in the last two years.
Having stayed exclusively at the penhouse in The Mandalay Beach Club next door, my Wife, Dena, and I were dismayed when the unit was not available for our most recent stay.
So we looked at the Sand Pearl having heard nothing but great reviews for the building and administration.
When I learned that the ownners of this unit were the same as for the penhouse at The Mandalay the deal was sealed.
and we were not disapointed:
impeccable and tasteful decor, high end furniture and appliances, flat screens in every room, internet, and an owner's obvious attention to upkeep and cleanliness!
Location is perfect: you can walk to everything.
Pool area and gym are a perfect way to spend part of your day, foolowed by a wonderful stroll on the beach just steps away.
Best part of the day (there are so many): a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon and a sumptuous sunset, VOILÀ!!!
