That's exactly the proof that Qing Dynasty rulers weren't Chinese. They
deliberately promote conflict between Hui and Han so that their own rules
can be more secure. If you don't know this fact, then you need to relearn
history.
Hui is different from Uygur. Uygur are different race practicing a

摘编。
中国河南省2010年招聘会上，富士康科技有限公司的求职者蜂拥而至。
去年二月份，巴拉克•奥巴马在加利福尼亚参加矽谷名人们的晚宴，每个客人都
得到了一个向总统提问的机会。
但当斯蒂夫•乔布斯准备发问时，奥巴马总统打断了他，先提出了自己的一个问
题：怎样才能在美国生产iPhone？
不久之前，苹果还在吹嘘它的产品都是在美国生产的，今天事情已经完全不是这样了。
苹果公司去年卖出的7000万部iPhone、3000万部iPad和5900万部其他产品，几乎全是在
海外生产的。
奥巴马问，为什么不能把这些工作搬到家里来做？
乔布斯先生的回答含糊其辞，据参加宴会的人员回忆，他说：“这些工作回不来了。”
总统的发问触及了苹果公司的核心问题所在，这已经不仅仅是海外廉价劳动力的问题了
。苹果高层认为，海外工厂的规模、工人的灵活性、勤奋程度和操作技巧都已经超过了
美国工人。“美国制造”已经不是大部分苹果产品的明智选择... 阅读全帖 |

colleges are where students ponder life's big questions, and learn to think
en route to successful careers and richer lives, if not always to the best-
paying first jobs.
But today's incr... 阅读全帖 |

Chief Charlie Beck and L.A. Mayor Villaraigosa, Dec. 27, 2012
The L.A. Police Department had big news on December 27. They had seized a
pair of rocket launchers! This, of course, would have been shocking news if
only they really had found “rocket launchers” in the City of Angels.

committed more than 200 sex crimes over more than half a century, with most
victims children and teens assaulted the length and breadth of Britain, from

Police said in a report released Friday that the scale of Savile's sex abuse
was "unprecedented in the UK." They have recorded 214 offenses allegedly
committed by Savile, including 34 rapes. In all, 450 people have come

India is a far more open society than China. There is open discourse on
every societal flaw. Take for example the recent gang-rape case in Delhi.
