Fu Mingxiong squats against a wall in the sun outside Shanghai
Children’s Hospital, dangling his three-month-old son in split trousers
over a plastic beaker.

The scene is being repeated all over China as anxious parents rush to
overburdened hospitals to have their children’s urine tested for
indications of kidney stones and other illnesses caused by ingesting
melamine.

China's baby-milk scandal

Formula for disaster

Sep 18th 2008 | SHIJIAZHUANG

From The Economist print edition

A scandal in China over deadly baby milk

“QUALITY and safety are the foundations of social harmony,” proclaim
posters at the headquarters of the Sanlu Group in Shijiazhuang, capital
of China’s northern province of Hebei. Sanlu was until recently one of
China’s biggest producers of milk powder. Now, dozens of people, many
clutching infants, queue in the hot sun outside to return powder that
could be contaminated with a potentially lethal chemical. The harmony of
China’s consumers has rarely been so tested.

Surge of Cross-Border M&A Deals by Chinese Banks Is Creating
Opportunities for Foreign Banks

Chinese Banks Have Good Reason to Venture Abroad but Face a Range of
Challenges as They Pursue Cross-Border Deals
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chinese banks have been pursuing larger, more ambitious M&A deals.
Many deals have involved taking stakes in foreign institutions,
according to a report by The Boston Consulting Group (BCG). The
report, titled Venturing Abroad: Chinese Banks and Cross-Border M&A ,
released on September 18, 2008.

From 1993 through 2005, Chinese banks made an average of about one
cross-border acquisition per year. Most deals were valued at under $20
million. Since then, Chinese banks have made 11 cross-border M&A
deals. Five of these were worth at least $1 billion.

All military personnels from soldiers to generals required training in
martial art. Admission requirment for military academy in every
country
is different.

commission, which is the formal written authority, issued in the name
of the President of the United States, that confers the rank and
authority of a Marine Officer. Commissioned officers carry the
"special trust and confidence" of the President of the United States.

  RichAsianKid is PoorWhiteMan         


Author: geniuspsychologist
Date: Sep 19, 2008 16:38

The world pleaded with Genius Psychologist (who doesn't mind being
called by his first name, "Genius") to reveal the real identity of
RichAsianKid. Genius graciously consented, and has revealed
RichAsianKid's true identity to be PoorWhiteMan.

Genius reasons...

Strike One.

RichAsianKid posts many times a week, occasionally many times a day.
He evidently has way too much time on his hands. It is impossible for
a Rich person to spend so much time on the internet with no payback.

RichAsianKid is obviously Poor.

Strike Two.

RichAsianKid posted: http://groups.google.com/group/soc.culture.china/msg/2784543d6602ee8c?dmode=sour...

"As the punditocracies blog, if and when Obama
becomes prez, blacks will have no more excuse for their failures.
Every time some poor black cries out 'racism' or 'we're not equally
represented here and there and everywhere' the standard retort's gotta
be, "for crying out loud we a majority white country just elected a
black president!"
No more excuses for failing blacks. Isn't that wonderful?"
