@mike, HK is nothing like Tibet.

Yes, I think the migrant children's school is a worthwhile effort and could use some help - but not just playing, which isn't bad, it's just not enough.
@laotou: You've got some points, but I don't think what's going on in H K is amusement, nor do I think everybody is simply being manipulated, nor do I th9ink all these people are self-aggrandizing dolts. As for disrespecting the CEO, that doesn't bother me, given his record.
The working class are not currently rising up.
Yes, it would be a good idea for students to get some work experience.
@Geezer: the thing may well be running out of steam for the moment, but it's not going to just go away.
Not everybody in China has a VPN, or even a computer, and news from most international sources is not in Chinese.
Yahoo seems screwed again - limits the broad range of inputs.

No results found.
Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM.

As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.
Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.
Too bourgeois.
Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
Ain't no flies on Salvador's.

Oil pipeline connects Kunming to Andaman Sea
发布者Will be interesting to see the effect of this on pollution in Anning and Kunming, if any, which was the object of a demo last May, and to hear more about the environmental issues that were of concern in Myanmar.
And in what sense are the Straits of Malacca 'nominally United-States controlled'?
