In Beijing I had a few 60X100cm prints done but it took a few trys to get good quality. Tried in KM with poor results.
Make sure you set the attributes to 'read only.' If you are like me, you set the pic contrast, etc the way you want it but they always have a better idea.
One more thing, avoid saving jpg's too many times as there is quality loss when you print the big ones. Use RAW images if you can and only save once to jpg.
Not working and being over age 50 are a couple additional qualifiers for the retirement visa.
In China, I was a "subject" teacher meaning I didn't teach English. There seems to be really only two requirements to teach English in China 1) Be a native speaker and 2) have a white face. I fully agree with more enforcement of teaching qualifications. Many English teachers were young people who were also clueless, sad to say,
@HFCAMPO: Alas, we are but simple NASTY folk doing what we like in the way we like. You can shove your unappreciated preaching where the sun don't shine.
For a guy with his panties all bunched up about being controlled, you sure have a strange interest in controlling others.
measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine
Last year most places were not open. I went to Wenlin Jie and nearly every place was closed.
Tip: Stock up on beer, cigarettes, DVDs and favorite foods because this stuff will be hard to find. Note many Chinese places will close a few days early to beat the travel madness.
No results found.
Good for quality, but pricey, hand tools.
Be aware they will push whatever they are selling. Some of the staff have no idea about the technical side of appliances.
I went there to buy a stove. I repeatedly told them I would be using bottled gas. They sold me a stove. When I went to my local gas guy, I learned there are at least three kinds of gas sold. Luckily, B&Q did not deliver as promised. I went back to the store and discovered they had sold me a stove they needed to be hooked up to the gas main. I got my money back.
The sales lady was almost in tears, 没有问题！I don't know if it a safety or design issue, but I would think B&Q would know and care.
Last week had an 8:45am flight.
Subway starts at 9am. I have no idea where to catch an airport express bus. Eight taxis refused to go to the airport. After almost an hour standing on Beijing Lu took a black taxi, this dude drives slower than my mother, 120 yuan.
Flight back was delayed so I learned the subway stops running at 6:10pm.
Getting a taxi back was easy, more taxis than customers. Taxi was 87 yuan including 1o yuan toll, airport to Beichen area. Yes, he took a longer route than necessary.
Kunming imagines being a gateway for international travelers. New airport but hard to get to and from it.
World Class Airport, NOT!
Tonight "Peacock", a performance by Yang Liping (杨丽萍), to begin her world tour, 8pm, 100-1680 yuan at Yunna Haigeng Auditorium.
Saw this lady perform at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium, in California, in 1995. Quite a good and interesting show.
I'm going to try to make it.
Not so good. Kimchi had a very sour taste. Other food was nothing to brag about. I don't think I would go back.
This bus station is not located as indicated. It is further North!

发布者The new guidelines announced in early March have already begun to payoff. Yunnan Tourism Co Ltd announced on April 3rd that it willn be profitable in Q1 2017.

Blackwater founder bringing new security firm to China
发布者Frontier Services Group is backed by China's state-owned CITIC Group and Hong Kong-based investor Chun Shun Ko. FGS advises and supports Chinese investment in oil and gas in Africa.
Prince says that Blackwater involved 40,000 missions and only 200 involved his employees firing guns. From what I have heard it was a highly effective and capable company. A large part of the services provided was training. Prince is very wealthy guy who solves unusual problems.
Governor vows to cure "diseased" Yunnan tourism industry
发布者Words like "stricter" and "standardization" do not bode well for tourism. Alas, that seems to be an easier way to control business.
"Out with the four olds!"
Celebrating a Miao Christmas in Yunnan
发布者Seems China has often accepted religions from abroad: Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, Communism, Climate Change. The last three are the same: Get converted, unquestioned belief, must have faith as nothing is provable, and pain with suffering for the apostate and unbeliever.
Kunming's bike share options: A user guide
发布者The deposits should be invested but that much cash is tempting. Chinese companies tend to grow debt so holding cash deposits is mot in the plan. Deposits are a liability, if refundable, in this case aka debt.
Cash will be gone when the bikes are gone.
