One of the worst doctored photographs in Internet history? That's the emerging verdict on a clumsily altered photo of bureacrats in the sleepy county of Huili, in southwest China's Sichuan province. In an ill-fated PR stunt, the trio of area government officials are shown appearing to float over the surface of a road, casting nary a shadow in a bid to promote a local road construction project.

One unfortunate current in the commemorations of the tenth year after 9/11
has been a widely promoted narrative that we lashed out, overreacted, and —
through Afghanistan, Iraq, and the war on terror — not only lost our post-
9/11 unity and “civility,” but supposedly alienated most of the world
while playing into the hands of al-Qaeda.
In this regard, most unfortunate was the blog posting (replete with all the
tired formulaic slurs about “fake... 阅读全帖 |

This is a review of the 2016 Toyota Camry SE, but since the 2017 models are
carried over unchanged, all comments should apply to 2017 models.
As of this writing, Toyota's been running ads which say that Toyota has
built the Camry with close attention to detail. "Tested, trusted, Toyota",
the ad says. As an owner of a 2016 Camry I can attest that the detail to
which they've devoted their corporate and engineering attention is toward
producing a car as cheaply as pos... 阅读全帖 |

At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves children with learning

would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school
and its dedicated staff, he offered a question:
'When not interfered with by outside influences, everything nature does,

His soft high notes are painfully weak. Inadequate breath control often
forces him to clip off notes prematurely at the end of phrases."
"the tone is rasping, thin and, in general, poorly supported. Even the most
modest upward movement thins it even more, signalling what appears to be the

it works;
If you plug out your ZIP driver while Win2k is running, and connect
