Materials needed:
- 1/4 yard each of three coordinating fabrics (you'll definitely have scraps leftover)
- 8" zipper (you can always purchase a longer zipper and shorten it, just follow the directions on the package
- scraps of medium weight fusible interfacing
Cutting the pieces:
For the main exterior, cut two pieces, one 5.5" tall by 9" wide, and one 5.5" tall by 13" wide (this will be the gathered front)
Pieces of medium weight fusible interfacing for exterior pieces of clutch: (2) 5.5" tall by 9" wide
For the front band, cut one piece 4" tall by 9" wide.
For the lining, cut two pieces 5.5" tall by 9" wide
For the zipper end covers: two pieces 1.5" tall by 2.5" wide.
Optional Parts:
For the divider pocket, cut one piece 8" tall by 9" wide (apply interfacing to half, you'll need at 4" x 9" piece)
For the card holders, cut one piece 7" tall by 9" wide (apply interfacing to half, you'll need at 3.5" x 9" piece)
Take the front band piece and fold it in half the long way (right sides together) and sew together using a 1/2" seam allowance.
Turn tube right side out and press with seam in the middle. Set aside.
Grab the 13" wide main exterior piece. Sew two lines of gathering stitches down the middle, about 1" apart.
Pull the top threads to gather, pull until the length is 9" long. Press the gathers in place.
Take the front band and pin it in the middle of the exterior piece you just finished.
Top stitch along each side of the band. Take the 5.5" tall by 9" interfacing piece and iron it to the WRONG side of the gathered piece. This makes all the gathering and stitching stay in place nicely. Set aside.
Make the divider pocket:
Fuse interfacing to half of the piece.
Fold fabric in half with WRONG sides together, press. Topstitch along folded edge and then add another line of topstiching about 1/4" below the first line of topstitching. Set aside.
Make the card holders:
Fuse interfacing to half of the piece. Fold fabric in half with WRONG sides together, press.
Topstitch along folded edge and then add another line of topstiching about 1/8" below the first line of topstitching.
Take one piece of the lining fabric and line up the card holder with raw edges together, one on top of the other baste along side and bottom edged of card holder (the plaid fabric).
Grab your credit card or driver's license and mark with a pin how far you want your card to stick up from the slot. Sew a line across the lining/card holder piece where you marked with the pin. Sew one line of stitching down the center of the card holder.
Take your card again and mark with a pin where the edge of your card is (you can leave a little wiggle room, but it's nice to keep it pretty snug to hold your cards in place). Sew a line for the side of the card, repeat for other side. Now you should have two card holders! Set aside.
Making the end tabs for the zipper:
Fold the piece of fabric in half width wise, turn down each raw edge to the center crease and press (the pic above doesn't show it pressed in far enough). Repeat for other end tab.
Take your zipper and sandwich the fabric around the zipper, just poking over the little metal bits.
Topstitch a line straight across the zipper with a very small seam allowance being careful not to hit those metal parts! Repeat for other end. Trim the fabric tabs to the width of the zipper. IMPORTANT! The length of the zipper with the tabs on should measure about 8.5" end to end.
Baste the card holders to one piece of lining and the divider pocket to the other piece of lining, aligning the raw edges at the bottom.
Almost done!
Assembling the clutch:
Place your gathered exterior piece RIGHT side up (whoops!, had it wrong in the pic, don't worry, just get out your seam ripper and start again). Put the zipper teeth side down with the pull tab to the LEFT. Then put the lining piece WRONG side up. Pin in place.
Using your zipper foot sew along the edge of this zipper sandwich. Flip pieces so the WRONG sides are together. Please note that in a few of these shots the zipper with end tabs sewn on is longer than the clutch exteriors and linings, it was the first one I made and have since made adjustments to the measurements, all updates are inluded here in the tutorial.
Grab the other exterior piece, place RIGHT side up. Put the zipper teeth side down with the pull tab on the RIGHT this time. Place the remaining lining piece WRONG side up on top of the zipper. Pin in place, sew. Flip pieces so the WRONG side are facing eachother. Press!
Put your regular sewing foot back on and sew a line of topstitching on either side of the zipper.
Now open your zipper about halfway, don't forget this! I actually forgot to do this on all three clutches, don't worry, you can still wiggle the zipper open if you carefully pull at it through the fabric.
**Update** If you don't add the divider or card pockets, I would recommend adding a layer of fusible fleece or even canvas as interfacing, it will make the clutch more sturdy.
Terms of use: For personal use only. Thank you for respecting that.

How long does the black Macbook battery last?
First, is there a difference from the Li-Ion and Li-Polymer battery. And how long will each of them last?

Yes there is a difference between the two of them. It just has to do with they way the work and the life of the battery. However all you can get for the MacBook is the polymer battery. On mine I have had it over a year and I still get about 4 to 5 hours and I use it for internet and to take notes in college.

I have a macbook 2,1 from around June 2007 (so around 3.5 years old) and I've used this machine every day since I had it.
The full capacity of the (original) battery is currently around 4788mA after 975 charging cycles, and I get around 4.5 hours of browsing and general use (I'd get around 5 hours when it was new). Programming I get 2-3 hours depending on what I'm doing.
The key to keeping these batteries working for a long time is to fully discharge and recharge them often and not partially discharge and then leave them plugged in on the mains all the time.- Answered by James F from Cheltenham

Mine is now completely dead (asking me to replace it) after 328 cycles, and almost three years' use. Mostly, I used my black MacBook while plugged in though, which explains the relatively low cycle count.

The first battery of my Macbook black died after 2 years. Got replaced by apple. The replacement died after 14 months with 71 (seventyone!) loading cycles. As Apple Care ran out last year, I had to buy a new one myself.

I was told some time ago that Li-Polymer and Li-Ion batteries don't need to be fully discharged before charging. I'd post some links confirming this but it seems Apple doesn't allow them!
Personally, I've had my Macbook for 6 years and it's used every day. Sometimes plugged in and sometimes not. Nearly 400 cycles so far and still lasts at least 2 hours.- Answered by Dick L

I am at 85 cycles on mine and still get about 4 hours of wifi surfing

Li-Polymer is a newer formulation giving superior capacity compared to the same sized Li-Ion battery. Most if not all Apple batteries are now Li-Polymer.
Neither battery should be run down completely except for Apple's recommendation of a once a month full discharge to calibrate the battery "gauge" in the menubar. Fully discharging the battery more than that will shorten its life significantly.
Ideally, you would let the battery get down to 50% and then charge it, but that's not always possible.
The second worse thing is to leave a notebook plugged in around the clock. For maximum battery life, shut the notebook off and unplug it from the charger.
It's ok to leave the charger connected if the computer is in use. If you sleep the computer at night, you'll need to leave the charger connected.
Battery life can very greatly among different users, depending on settings used and care of the battery. I got 4 hours of use after 2 years, but then it started going downhill fast.
Your mileage will vary.- Answered by R A M from Hayward

By Andrew Barksdale Staff writer
Fayetteville officials are considering an older, unincorporated community just south of Fort Bragg to place two major recreation construction projects that are part of next year's $45 million referendum.
According to a city staff proposal unveiled Monday at the City Council work session, the city would build a sports fields and a tennis center over a large swath of Shaw Heights, which runs on the western side of Murchison Road.
The neighborhood is home to hundreds of people, many of whom are renters, and has several empty tracts where mobile home parks have been razed by Cumberland County.
The proposal calls for the city to buy about 125 acres in the least populated section of Shaw Heights - an area roughly between Tammy and Davis streets on the south side to where Interstate 295 is under construction on the north side.
The city would then annex and redevelop the land, leaving the businesses along Murchison Road intact.
Mayor Tony Chavonne said the proposal would require the city to use its power of eminent domain to acquire some of the land, which includes buildings and mobile homes with "absentee landlords" and parcels with multiple, out-of-town heirs that would hinder any voluntary land sales.
Chavonne said the proposal has several advantages, including addressing what long has been an issue over the city annexing everything around Shaw Heights except for the impoverished neighborhood. The proposal would help eliminate blight, Chavonne said, and promote economic development.
The sports fields and tennis center in the bond package could draw hundreds of out-of-town guests for weekend tournaments, city officials have said.
The council took no action Monday on the proposal to assemble and redevelop that section of Shaw Heights.
The city has voted to hold a public vote Feb. 26 on whether to approve a parks and recreation bond package worth $54.6 million. The city would borrow $45 million and use reserves for the rest of the amount.
If the bond issue passes, the city's tax rate would rise by 2.25 cents per $100 in valuation next year. The levy is 45.6 cents now.
The council, which has split previously on whether to hold the referendum, is scheduled to hold a public hearing Nov. 26 and vote one more time on the issue.
In addition to the sports fields and tennis center, the bond package includes new pools, parks and a combined field house/senior center/indoor pool at Mazarick Park off Bragg Boulevard.
As part of the Shaw Heights proposal, the city would enter into an agreement with county officials to provide fire protection and law enforcement in the remaining community that would not be annexed.
The cost for buying the land has not been determined yet, said Michael Gibson, the city's parks and recreation director. The parks bond package includes $1.5 million for land acquisition.
In other action, the council:
Voted down, by an informal show of hands, allocating $300,000 to hire a consultant who would study the disparity of locally owned businesses, as well as those owned by minorities, women and veterans, that aren't getting city contracts. The council plans to revisit the issue in December.
Heard a proposal to boost bus fares, including raising the adult base fare to $1.25 from $1. The issue, which received positive feedback Monday, will come to a future council meeting for a vote.
Agreed to hold a public hearing Nov. 26 on a proposal to form a citizen review board to hear appeals of complaints made against the Police Department. The proposal needs the General Assembly's permission next year before being implemented.
Agreed to hold a public hearing Nov. 13 on proposal by a development team led by Ralph Huff to build 47 residences at the former Days Inn site on Bragg Boulevard, across from the Airborne & Special Operations Museum. The city would sell 4.65 acres to the development team for $729,000.

I do a lot of heavy duty rolling for my cheese rolls, making 40 to 50 dozen at a time and though this rolling pin looks great, it's a little too lightweight for me and when you hold it by the handles and shake it back and forth, it's as if the rod it's on is too big because it kind of rattles which tells me during use, that noise would probably drive me up the wall. I just need a heavier duty rolling pin.

Ayat Al-Qassab carefully slipped the beaded satin wedding gown over her small frame. She peered at herself in the rusted mirror and cautiously smiled. For a moment, her war-torn world was transformed and she was a beautiful bride -- free, safe and happy. Then, a mortar shell exploded somewhere near her Syrian home in Homs, waking her from a daydream. She quickly wrapped a white headscarf tightly around her hair and prepared to leave for her wedding. Homs has borne the brunt of the Syrian military's wrath since violence broke out nearly two years ago in the nation. Many who live in the city consider it to be the unbowed guardian of the Syrian revolt. There, even marriage is an act of revolution.

This past week, Besse Cooper went to get her hair done, in the nursing home she lived. Her hair was one of her passions. Her son said it meant that she was ready to go. She died later that day. We take a look back at Besse Cooper, who was the oldest living person in the world.
She was scarred by the war that scarred her father, and she spent two decades seeking peace. Now Christal Presley takes the next step in her journey: returning to the places that sill haunt her and, at last, telling her truth.

Joe Gibbs won three Super Bowls and a handful of NASCAR Championships but instead of hanging it up, he's pressing on. CNN's Belief Blog takes a look at the coach, his career and the faith the drives him.
As gay people become more accepted in mainstream society and as baby boomers push for a better world for the LGBT community, retirement is starting to look a lot different for this generation.
Across the country, there's a sudden shift taking place. Bobbie Cleave, a retired teacher in Utah, has put off plans to get a badly needed car. Brian Chandler, a data manager in metro Atlanta, is delaying buying a house -- despite needing space for his second child due any day now. Retired police officer Richard Huffman of Michigan is considering ditching plans to get back into the work force. And many families CNN spoke with said they're shrinking the gift pile beneath the Christmas Tree. All because of the so-called "fiscal cliff." The threat to the nation's economy, which Americans hear about on daily basis, isn't just "looming." For many people, it's a reason to make changes now. But some see an up-side. "We need to go over the cliff," says Val Stayskal, 58-year-old owner of two small businesses in Addison, Illinois.

Suitable from 6 months+
For your first conversation! For use from 6 months. With its 3 tray positions, 5 point harness and 2 footrest positions, this highchair guarantees the comfort and safety your child needs at mealtimes. Wipe clean fabric makes Teatime easy to clean. Teatime is extremely compact at only 15cm wide when folded. This highchair can be folded with or without the tray.
I use this product to feed my 6 month boy in but he also likes just sitting in it with toys to play, because the tray has 3 different points you dont get food dropping down inbetween on to their lap. Very quick delivery
Great basic high chair - it was very easy to assemble and it will fold away nicely. My little baby girl loved sitting in it and it is great that you can remove the tray so easily for cleaning. It will be perfect for my mum's house when little one comes to visit. All in all - it does what you expect from a basic high chair and it is good value.
This is my second Graco high chair, both for the grandparents, I like them as they have removable and adjustable food tray as well as adjustable footrest. Stylish, sturdy comfy chair for my son to use at meal times. Plus when it's not in need folds away and stored easily. :-)
It's a great high chair. Easy to put together, easy to food away. Only negative point is it doesn't fold away flat enough to put it anywhere it. It flops open.

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. -- The city of Binghamton is turning purple in preparation for this year's Relay for Life event.
Mayor Matt Ryan was joined by cancer survivors at a press conference to declare Tuesday "Paint the Town Purple Day."
Community members and businesses are asked to wear or display the color throughout the coming weeks. The goal is to raise awareness about the importance of this year's Relay for Life in Binghamton. The event will be held on June 15th and 16th at Broome Community College.
Denise Woods, American Cancer Society Director of Special Events said, "Ask everybody you know to just come and support us and show their support of cancer survivors because we are an organization about wanting to help people celebrate more birthdays every year."
Mayor Ryan said, "I'm a survivor myself of cancer from back in 2000, and I realize how important this event is not only for those who are suffering with the illness and all the different types of cancer in our society, but for those who are remembering those who lost the battle to cancer."
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the city's Relay for Life event. Interested participants can visit www.relayforlife.org to register.

David Price has been around Tampa Bay for a while. He knows how they roll. And he too believes that he'll be on the trading block this winter. Marc Topkin has Price's comments from Wednesday:
"If you go with what's been done in the past, I guess you're going to have to think you're going to get traded," Price, 28, said. "That's kind of the way it's happened with this organization when pitchers kind of get to this period in their career. We've seen it happen a couple of times already. I don't know what's going to happen, but I know what's happened in the past."
They'd probably get a nice haul for him. If your team needs pitching and has prospects, get used to hearing Price's name in the news as the hot stove warms up.
UPDATE: I talked about a potential Price trade on SportsDash on the NBC Sports Network today:
This is amusing considering the rumors about Seattle possibly trading top pitching prospct Taijuan Walker in a deal for David Price. Today the Mariners introduced Corey Hart and Logan Morrison as official signings and Hart was given jersey No. 27, which is the number Walker wore during his debut this year. MLB.com reporter Greg Johns…

Dec 13, 2013, 3:55 PM EST
Yesterday we told you about how Major League Baseball was desperately trying to force A-Rod's public relations guy, Michael Sitrick, to testify in the Biogenesis arbitration. The arbitration which is over, by the way, but MLB says it needs Sitrick in order to establish that A-Rod obstructed the Biogenesis investigation. Welp, sorry MLB: Manhattan federal Judge…

Johnny Bench is a big fan of the new rule eliminating home plate collisions
Dec 13, 2013, 2:05 PM EST
Arguments from authority are always worth questioning. Just because someone is of a certain status or experience doesn't make them right about things. But when it comes to home plate collisions, I'm sorta inclined to defer to the greatest catcher in the history of the game. Hall of Famer Johnny Bench was on the Dan…
David Ortiz is talking to the Red Sox about extending his contract

David Ortiz is under contract for $11 million in 2014, which will be his age-38 season, and Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports that the designated hitter is talking to the Red Sox about adding another year to the deal. Obviously all teams would prefer not to make unnecessary commitments to players nearing 40, but Ortiz…
Mat Gamel, who was a top prospect and the heir apparent at first base for the Brewers before multiple knee surgeries derailed his career, has signed a minor-league contract with the Braves.

At this point in his career Kubel should really be a platoon designated hitter,…

The handsome manager post from the other day made its way around the Winter Meetings lobby on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Japanese teams pitching in to help Masahiro Tanaka's team get rid of him
Dec 13, 2013, 10:30 AM EST
This is pretty awesome. Because the posting fee for Japanese players is now capped at $20 million, teams have a way lower incentive to post their players, as they used to be able to get way more. That's been the holdup for Rakuten, the team which is trying to decide if it will post Masahiro…

Dec 13, 2013, 10:15 AM EST
Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports that the Diamondbacks are close to re-signing rehabbing right-hander Daniel Hudson and backup catcher Henry Blanco. Hudson is expected to miss most of 2014 following a pair of Tommy John elbow surgeries and the Diamondbacks non-tendered him last week because they ran out of time to work out…

Dec 13, 2013, 9:50 AM EST
Jon Heyman reports that the Rockies will sign Boone Logan to a three-year, $16.5 million contract. Troy Renck of the Denver Post reported that the deal was close last night. Logan — a lefty reliever — is an eight-year veteran having spent time with the White Sox, Braves, and Yankees. Over the past three seasons in…
An arrest is made in the impossibly unseemly theft of the Biogenesis documents

Multi-sport star Deion Sanders thinks Russell Wilson should "seriously consider baseball"
Dec 12, 2013, 11:00 PM EST
Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is enjoying a nice season. His team is 11-2 and has already clinched at least a Wild Card spot, and will likely soon wrap up the NFC West. What many have forgotten is that he was once a fourth-round pick by the Rockies in the 2010 Major League Baseball draft. He…

The Boys From Brazil To Remain In ProElite Family
LOS ANGELES (Dec. 6, 2007) – If loyalty and stability are true measures of a company's power to succeed, then classy, well-respected Los Angeles-based ProElite, Inc., and its Live Division, EliteXC, will continue to be prominent players in Mixed Martial Arts for many, many years.
Already recognized for making a positive, seemingly instant impact in MMA, EliteXC fortified its continually growing stable by recently re-signing two of its more explosive athletes, Antonio "Big Foot'' Silva (antoniosilva.proelite.com) and Murilo "Ninja'' Rua (murilorua.proelite.com).
Both Brazilians signed long-term contract extensions. Terms of the deals were not disclosed.
The re-signing of the promising Silva, a longtime super heavyweight who dropped down and fought at heavyweight in his last fight, and Rua, a former EliteXC middleweight champion who was an impressive winner in last Saturday's Cage Rage event in London, brings to five the number of well-known, highly regarded fighters who have re-signed or signed with EliteXC in the past several weeks.
The others: highly sought after, world ranked welterweight and winner of nine in a row, Jake Shields (jakeshields.proelite.com), talented lightweight star Nick Diaz (nickdiaz.proelite.com) and Kimbo Slice (kimboslice.proelite.com), the incredibly popular, backyard-fighting YouTube legend who was devastating in his EliteXC and MMA debut.
"We've always said there is more than one brand out there,'' EliteXC Live Events President Gary Shaw said. "The fact that so many fighters stay with us speaks volumes and is testament to what we are all about. No one treats its fighters like EliteXC does.
"When fighters want a home with a company that really cares about them, they will join EliteXC. Or, in the cases of almost all the fighters, they stay.''
A rising star in MMA, a slimmer, trimmer, quicker, faster, more-agile Silva dominated Jonathan Wiezorek in his last start, registering an impressive 3:12, first-round submission (rear naked choke) on the Nov. 10 "Renegade" event (exrenegade.proelite.com) at Corpus Christi, Tex.
"I believe Silva is the No. 1 heavyweight in the world which is why I wanted to make sure he stayed with us,'' Shaw said. "If there is a UFC heavyweight or, for that matter, any heavyweight out there that feels they are the best then lets make a match.
"We can do the fight in an Octagon, in the EliteXC cage or any venue. I truly believe 'Big Foot' will kick any heavyweight's butt and look forward to giving him the opportunity to do it.''
A terrific triumph over Wiezorek came in the six-foot-five-inch American Top Team Fighter's first match in eight months and first since he opted to drop 35 pounds and campaign as a heavyweight.
Silva, who had fought at near 300 pounds throughout his career, plans to make a make a permanent move from super heavy (265 pounds-plus) to the heavyweight division.
"My goal is to be heavyweight champion," said Silva, whose lone blemish in 10 starts came on a controversial defeat to Eric Peele on Dec. 2, 2006. "I want to stay active and fight all the great fighters. I would be comfortable fighting any of them right now. Maybe organizations will start to fight each other so we can have just one champion.''
Rua overcame a slow start to regain his winning ways with an exciting, action-packed second-round submission (rear-naked choke) over France's willing, hard-trying Xavier "The Professor'' Foupa-Pokam on "EliteXC Presents: Cage Rage 24'' (cr24feelthepain.proelite.com) at London
"Ninja is an exciting fighter who is coming off a great victory in Cage Rage,'' Shaw said. "He and his team are class acts and a pleasure to work with. Ninja will forever be remembered for being the first EliteXC world champion, but we all know he wants more and another shot at the world belt.''
Rua's victory came in his first fight since he lost the EliteXC championship crown to Icon Sport titleholder Robbie Lawler on a third-round TKO on EliteXC's "Uprising'' Sept. 15, 2007, in Hawaii.
"EliteXC has treated me very well and I am excited to be able to remain part of their family,'' Rua said. "I am looking forward to getting back in the cage again and regaining my title.
"A lot of other organizations give up on their fighters, but not EliteXC and I appreciate that very much. They have become one of the top organizations in MMA and I am proud to be part of it. You can't beat the kind of exposure (SHOWTIME and ProElite.com ) you get fighting for EliteXC.''

European Painting before 1900, Johnson Collection Virgin and Child Made in Netherlands (historical name, 15th-16th century), Europec. 1470 Attributed to Hugo van der Goes, Netherlandish (active Ghent), first documented 1467, died 1482 Oil on panel * Gallery 219, European Art 1100-1500, second floor Cat. 336 John G. Johnson Collection, 1917 |
LabelThe Christ child nursing at the Virgin's breast was a favorite subject in Netherlandish painting during the fifteenth century. Rogier van der Weyden popularized this devotional image, which artists repeated for generations. By showing the Infant Christ nursing, the artist emphasized both the human nature of Christ and the Virgin's role as the merciful and benevolent mother of all humanity.* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons. Although gallery locations on the website are updated regularly, there is no guarantee that this object will be on display on the day of your visit. |

A three and a half year government investigation in Ireland, called the Murphy report, revealed a cover-up of three decades of clergy sexual abuse in the Catholic church. And, in an official pastoral letter to Irish sexual abuse victims, Pope Benedict XVI apologized to Ireland's Catholics. Co-Host and attorney J. Craig Williams welcomes guests Attorney Helen L. McGonigle, a victim of clergy abuse and victim's advocate and Vincent Shannon, Senior Partner of Shannons Solicitors in Dublin, Ireland. They discuss the investigations into allegations of sexual abuse at the hands of priests, the Vatican's tepid response, legal jurisdictions versus canon law and what victims of clergy sexual abuse can do legally here and abroad.

St. Louis Cardinals Ticket Info
The '12 St. Louis Cardinals season was incredibly exciting. After winning 88 games in the regular season, the Cards earned a playoff birth as the second Wild Card team in the National League. Following a win in their one game playoff with Atlanta, the Cards marched into the nation's capital and took down the Washington Nationals. It looked as if the Cards were destined to return to the Fall Classic again in '12 but the scrappy San Francisco Giants were able to stave off elimination in 3 straight games, forcing a decisive seventh game and winning the National League Pennant over St. Louis. It was quite the season for first year manager Mike Matheny and Cards fans can not be disappointed in how their team faired in the challenging National League. How will things turn out in 2014? Get your St. Louis Cardinals tickets now to find out.
Matheny proved that he can manage in the big leagues and do so very successfully. The Cardinals were able to fill the void left by Albert Pujols in '11 with the acquisition of switch-hitting veteran outfielder Carlos Beltran. Don't be surprised if the Cardinals return to the playoffs once again in 2014 and make a strong push for a World Series title.
Part of the reason for the recent success of the Cardinals has been the legendary fan support at Busch Stadium, which is actually the third version of the stadium with the same name. Opened in '06, Busch Stadium III is by far the finest of the trio and it's really a tremendous place to watch a ballgame. So take a few minutes to browse through the St. Louis Cardinals schedule and buy your St. Louis Cardinals tickets today.
Gotickets.com has got you covered with tickets to every MLB game this year as well as 2014 World Series and MLB All Star Game tickets. |

From the December 28, 2009 The Australian
December 28, 2009
by John Lee
TWO recent events have convinced many observers that we are entering an unprecedented era marked by rising Chinese power and influence at the expense of the West.
First it was Chinese intransigence at the UN's climate change summit in Copenhagen and the perceived snub to Barack Obama by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, who skipped several planned meetings with the US President: unthinkable several years ago.
Then it was the spectacle of US, European Union, Australian and other Western diplomats being barred from entering the courtroom to observe the three-hour trial of prominent dissident Liu Xiaobo, sentenced to 11 years' jail.
The interpretation: further confirmation that a confident China is becoming increasingly defiant and dismissive of the West. But just as China's power and confidence is frequently overstated, the weaknesses and insecurities of the regime are frequently understated, usually in the West.
China's intransigence at Copenhagen and the fact Liu's trial and sentencing took place on Christmas Day speaks volumes about Beijing's insecurities and vulnerabilities rather than its growing confidence.
First, what is the significance of the Christmas Day trial of Liu?
Politicians in Western countries have long adopted the practice of releasing bad or embarrassing news when another event is likely to dominate political and public attention.
The most cynical example of this practice occurred in 2001 when Jo Moore, a senior adviser to the former British transport secretary, advised her boss within an hour of the second plane flying into the World Trade Centre twin towers that it would be a good time to announce and bury bad news.
Similarly, the choice of Christmas Day to sentence Liu was no coincidence.
Liu was one of the main authors of Charter 2008, a human rights manifesto modelled on the Charter 77 document that inspired eastern Europe during its days under Soviet control.
Charter 2008 called for a new constitution, freedom of speech and assembly, an independent judiciary and democratic elections for all levels of government, changes top-level Chinese leaders continually tell Western counterparts that they are gradually working towards in a steady and orderly fashion.
But Beijing always countered Western delegations by arguing that the correct timing for implementing these changes was far off.
Charter 2008 is feared because it diluted this defense. It makes a link between fair and sustainable economic progress on the one hand, and civil and political reform on the other.
The document was written and endorsed by Chinese intellectuals and citizens, not pushed on to China by Western groups. Indeed, Liu's trial came only four days after the state-backed Chinese Academy of Social Sciences released its annual blue paper, which highlighted growing social unrest and the worsening problems associated with inequality and corruption.
The CASS report was inconvenient as it called into question the success of Beijing's long-stated plan to build a "harmonious society", thereby lending support to arguments put forward by Charter 2008. Even when the charter was released last year, Beijing watched warily as copies of the document spread to internet sites within China with translations offered for international audiences.
Fearing international support for the charter once Liu's conviction was formalised, Beijing held the trial with Western leaders on holidays and the Western public distracted by seasonal festivities.
Second, China's intransigence at the Copenhagen summit was seen by many as a rising superpower defying the US and the developed world on an important global issue.
The sticking point for China was a refusal to allow "transparent verification" of whether it was meeting any agreed commitments and even described such stipulations as a violation of its sovereignty.
It was Obama insisting on this issue that sparked Wen's walkout.
Why the paranoia about transparency? Beijing has continually shown that it is reluctant to allow outsiders, let alone teams of international economists, scientists, inspectors and statisticians, to roam China gathering information on industry outputs, carbon emissions and reduction initiatives.
In promoting China, Beijing projects an image of order and competence. In parts of its successful coastal cities, it is that.
But these international teams would undoubtedly discover exactly how dysfunctional the heart of China really is.
The facade would be exposed. They would see first-hand and report back to their Western political masters how China's 45 million local officials remain the most formidable obstacle to improving accountability and performance in China's sprawling economic structure, protecting their turf, defending their privileges, arbitrarily enforcing the law and, when it comes to economic performance, blatantly cooking the figures.
It would also reveal to the world the true extent to which Beijing cannot oversee the running of China.
Many leaders and opinion makers in the West are getting China wrong.
Where we see apparent Chinese strength and boldness, Beijing senses its own vulnerabilities and humiliation. Where we see examples of Chinese defiance, Beijing is actually hiding evidence of flaws and limitations.
As the charter notes, authoritarianism is in general decline throughout the world before arguing for citizens to be masters of states. Beijing knows it is defying history, but is hoping those outside China do not know or no longer care
