BEIJING, May 9 — China is fully prepared to defend its interests in its trade war with the United States, but hopes the United States can resolve problems through dialogue instead of unilateral steps, the Chinese commerce ministry said today.
The comments came as a Chinese delegation led by Vice Premier Liu He was set to hold talks in Washington today and tomorrow aimed at salvaging a deal that appeared to be unravelling after US officials accused China of backtracking on earlier commitments and President Donald Trump threatened to hike tariffs on Chinese goods tomorrow.
Speaking to reporters in Beijing, the commerce ministry's spokesman, Gao Feng, said China has the determination and capacity to defend its interests, but hopes the US can meet it halfway.
"China's attitude has been consistent, and China will not succumb to any pressure," Gao said. "China has made preparations to respond to all kinds of possible outcomes."
He did not elaborate.
The US Trade Representative's office said tariffs on US$200 billion (RM831 million) of Chinese goods would rise to 25 per cent from 10 per cent at 12.01am (0401 GMT) tomorrow.
These include chemicals, building materials, furniture and some consumer electronics.
The US tariff action would come in the middle of the meetings in Washington.
Trump also threatened on Sunday to levy tariffs on an additional US$325 billion of China's goods, on top of the US$250 billion of its products already hit by import taxes.
Until last weekend, when a deep rift opened up over the language of the proposed accord, there had been strong expectations that the two sides would reach a deal to de-escalate a tariff war that broke out last year.
Reaching a deal required effort from both sides, Gao said, adding that China had demonstrated its sincerity by sending its negotiators to Washington despite the US threat to raise tariffs.
Trade negotiations are a long process, and it is normal to have disagreements, Gao said, adding that China is willing to continue talks with the United States to resolve their trade dispute.
While the United States wants to reduce the scale of its trade deficit with China, it is also seeking better protection for American intellectual property and more market access in China for US companies.
Gao described accusations about Chinese firms stealing tech secrets as unreasonable and said they were not based on facts.
Chinese retaliation
Since July last year, China has cumulatively imposed countertariffs of up to 25 per cent on about US$110 billion of US products. It last levied tariffs, of 5 per cent to 10 per cent, on US$60 billion of US goods including liquefied natural gas and small aircraft in September.
Based on 2018 US Census Bureau trade data, China would only have about US$10 billion in US imports left to levy in retaliation for any future US tariffs, including crude oil and large aircraft.
Chinese state media on Thursday published and aired reports quoting US-based organisations and individuals critical of Trump's decision to raise tariffs, though downplaying the impact of higher US tariffs on the Chinese economy.
"China is well-prepared for an escalation in trade tensions. A variety of plans are in place, such as countermeasures for any tariff rise, and favourable policies to minimise losses for Chinese enterprises," the , a tabloid published by the ruling Communist Party's People's Daily, said in an editorial.
"Mentally and materially, China is much better prepared than its US counterpart."
China's blue-chip CSI300 index has slumped about 7 per cent so far this month on the renewed trade tensions. That compares with a smaller decline of about 2 per cent in the benchmark S&P 500 index.
The Chinese yuan has also retreated to a four-month low against the dollar, crossing the psychologically key 6.80 level. — Reuters

Mike Bloomberg is the least popular top-rated Democratic candidate new poll shows as he flies to Madrid to highlight his fight against climate change
- Michael Bloomberg is the least popular Democratic presidential candidate among the top five in the primary race
- He does, however, fall within the top five candidates in polling despite only announcing his campaign a few weeks ago
- The billionaire came in fifth place behind Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Senator Elizabeth Warren and Pete Buttigieg
- Only 40 per cent of Democrat polled say they have a favorable view of Bloomberg
- That is even lower than tech entrepreneur Andrew Yang's 42 per cent favorability
Among the top five Democratic primary frontrunners, billionaire and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is the least popular, according to a poll released Tuesday.
Bloomberg earned 5 per cent support among Democrats and Democrat-leaning voters in a Monmouth University poll conducted December 4-8.
He came in fifth place behind former Vice President Joe Biden with 26 per cent, Vermont independent Senator Bernie Sanders with 21 per cent, progressive Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren with 8 per cent and South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg with 5 per cent.
Michael Bloomberg (pictured) is the least popular Democratic candidate among the top five – but he does fall within the top candidates despite only announcing his campaign a few weeks ago
Bloomberg fell only a few percentage points behind South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg
Bloomberg came in fifth place behind Joe Biden (upper right), 26 per cent; Senator Bernie Sanders (lower right), 21 per cent; Senator Elizabeth Warren (upper left), 8 per cent; and Pete Buttigieg (lower right), 5 per cent
Bloomberg, who previous served as a Republican mayor for New York City, floated running in the 2020 Democratic primary earlier this year before ruling it out.
Ultimately, Bloomberg announced a few days before Thanksgiving that he was entering the race – becoming the most recent candidate to join the crowded Democratic field, which recently dwindled to 15 with California Senator Kamala Harris' withdrawal.
Bloomberg previously had had 2 per cent support in March and 4 per cent in January when he was included in a poll as one of the potential contenders for the Democratic nomination.
Democrats and Democrat-leaning voters also exhibited in the poll that they don't have a very favorable view of the late comer billionaire candidate.
Of the more than 250 Democratic voters surveyed in the poll, only 40 per cent say they have a favorable view of Bloomberg.
This was even lower than tech entrepreneur Andrew Yang, who falls outside the top five candidates in most polls, and earned 42 per cent favorability in the Monmouth poll.
Warren tied Biden, both receiving 76 per cent favorability, but only 15 per cent of Democratic voters had an unfavorable view of Warren while 20 per cent viewed Biden unfavorably. Sanders earned 74 per cent favorability and Buttigieg 53 per cent.
The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.4 percentage points.
Only 40 per cent of Democrat polled say they have a favorable view of Bloomberg, which was even lower than tech entrepreneur Andrew Yang, who earned 42 per cent favorability
Bloomberg was met with a slew of criticism when he entered the race last month, which grew the Democratic field that was finally thinning out, with critics claiming he was attempting to buy the party's nomination.
Bloomberg's net worth is $58 billion and he has spent billions on national and regional advertising slots in only the few weeks he has been in the race.
The new poll results come as Bloomberg is in Madrid, Spain assuring activist, scientists and politicians that the U.S. is committed to combating climate change – 'even with a climate change denier in the White House.'
Bloomberg has made it clear he believes environmental issues are one of the biggest concerns of the age.
On the homepage of his campaign website, he has a red popup bar bear the top that redirects users to his 'International Climate Priorities' page.
'Mike Bloomberg is one of America's leading climate activists, and plans to put an unprecedented focus on climate in the general election, and make climate one of his top priorities as president,' the webpage reads.

Dining options at Mar Ipanema Hotel include a restaurant and a bar/lounge. Room
There are 82 guestrooms at Mar Ipanema Hotel. Guestrooms have city views. Beds come with down comforters and premium bedding. Refrigerators and minibars are offered. Bathrooms feature showers, designer toiletries, and hair dryers. In addition to complimentary wireless and wired high speed Internet access, guestrooms offer direct dial phones, CD players, and voice mail. Televisions have premium cable channels and pay movies. Air conditioned rooms also include desks, blackout drapes/curtains, electronic/magnetic keys, and clock radios. Guests may request irons/ironing boards, hypo allergenic bedding, and wake up calls. A nightly turndown service and housekeeping are available. Cribs (infant beds) are available on request.
Additional fees and deposits may be charged by the property at time of service, check in, or check out.
I would rate this as 4 star for location and price but rooms are more of an American 3 star. The prices have actually doubled to tripled in 10 years. I was here in Ipanema back in 2003 and 2004 time and remember it was about avg of $100 per night. Great location on my favorite Ipanema area, close to beach.
If you are a fan of shopping then Mar Ipanema Hotel might just be the place for you. It is positioned on a main shopping street that joins Ipanema to Leblon called Visconde De Piraja and is a stones throw away from the up market designer stores of 'Shopping Leblon'.
About five minutes walk away from the beach and at the perfect place to catch a bus to the centre of the city, Mar Ipanema Hotel doesnt offer too much in terms of thrilling architecture or individually crafter suites that some of its neighbours in Leblon have, but it is well put together and neatly packaged for a 3-star hotel. Ask at reception if you fancy taking one of their tours, they usually have something happening daily.
Plenty of bars and cafes around this neighbourhood as well, so go out exploring and find the best destination for you. Also, not too far up the road you will find Lagoa, a huge lake with plenty of activities on offer.
The Mar Ipanema is a couple of blocks from Ipanema beach in a neighborhood with a lot of restaurants and shops. There's a Devassa on the corner. While I was there they were doing noisy construction during the day, so afternoon naps were out.
This standard high rise 3*'s hotel, offers a pleasant stay and a good location. The standard room was functional, clean and comfortable, though dull relative to its rates. Service was standard and breakfast basic. The property is situated half way (5 mins) between ipanema beach and 'lagoa de freitas' lake, has plenty of local shops and restaurants, and is friendly/safe on foot. It is a modest stay if rates are reasonable; otherwise, accommodations on 'Av. Atlântica' along the Ipanema Beach might be a better choice.

5 Cocktails that Taste Just Like Summer
There is no better feeling in this world than poolside summer time, and these cocktail recipes will have you tasting summer all year long. Fruity cocktails are a staple of summer, and there is no better feeling that sipping on a cocktail while sunbathing in the summer sun. Summer is the perfect time of year to experiment with recipes, and allows you to get creative in the kitchen without turning the oven on and adding even more heat to the house.

Drawing top talent and retaining your best performers are mission-critical for most D.C. employers. While many factors are involved in creating a dynamic company culture that will win over the best, here are the 3 core values that stand out, mined from our recent Workplace Productivity & Satisfaction Report, in which third-party, independent research firm OnePoll, surveyed 250 D.C. area office workers.
- Flexibility Across Time & Space
Since today's workforce is more mobile than ever, companies need to adapt. Employees not only look for, but they expect flexibility from their employers – spanning everything from the office floor plan, to setting their own work hours. According to the Report, nearly a third (30.15%) of employees want 24/7 access to their offices so they can schedule hours that work best for them.
Companies that embrace flexibility have a major competitive edge when it comes to employee retention and recruiting. Some prime examples of flexibility in the work environment include: designating office space for collaborative work, as well as areas for "silent work"—free of distraction; embracing non-traditional work environments (i.e. home, coworking spaces); offering holistic benefits/amenities that account for employees' lifestyles; and, giving employees the freedom to create their own schedules. Ultimately, flexibility boils down to empowering employees to have more choice in where and how they complete their work.
- Meaning & Altruism as Attraction Points
Company brand name and an unblemished reputation simply aren't sufficient in today's battle for talent. Today's workforce genuinely cares about what a company does, and how it treats people (spanning customers, to employees and vendors). Employees are increasingly looking to work for organizations that align with their core values; and even, make the effort to incorporate social impact as part of their mission.
Because employees invest a bulk of their time in their jobs, it's important for them to align the work they do with an organization that aims to make a positive impact—locally, or on a global scale. In fact, a recent Harvard Study surveying over 2,000 professionals, found that 9 out of 10 American workers, would even be willing to earn less money to do more meaningful work. Employees working in roles they deemed meaningful, were 69% less likely to leave their jobs in the next 6 months.
According to a recent Gallup report, "Businesses with highly engaged teams, observed profitability increases of 21%… and output quality by 40%." Employees want to advance and thrive in the workplace. They want to be engaged in meaningful, challenging work. And, they want to grow. When companies invest in the professional development of its employees, they send an affirming message. They say: "You are valued." Employers need to ensure work is driven by purpose and develop strategic pathways that foster leadership skills.
Employers need to look beyond quarterly gains and start asking themselves some hard questions: How do we treat our employees? Do our actions contribute to building trust? Do we produce high-quality products, or provide exceptional customer service? What are we doing to benefit society or the environment? Are we infusing meaning into the roles of our employees?
- 'Business Ergonomics'
Employees feel the workplace environment directly reflects company culture, value, and identity. In fact, the Workplace Productivity Study found that 33% of office-based employees described their workspace environment as "boring" or "lacking atmosphere." Additionally, nearly a quarter of office workers in D.C. report feeling like the lack of thought and investment by their employers in their workspace makes workers feel like their employers are not concerned about worker comfort, happiness, and productivity.
Significant opportunity exists to actively create and manage a modern workplace environment that optimizes employee productivity and boosts satisfaction. The field of ergonomics relates to designing and arranging workspaces, products and systems to fit the employees within them. The Workplace Productivity shows that simple improvements could boost your 'Business Ergonomics' score – the impact of your workspace design, layout and office elements to boost employee satisfaction and productivity levels.
'Business ergonomics' are physical workplace features employers should invest in to promote employee productivity and satisfaction.
A few practical ways to spruce up your business ergonomics based on employee desires? Comfortable furniture, chillout/break areas, designated quiet rooms, and better lighting – could all contribute to a workspace more attuned to the needs of the modern workforce.

Moving on to the weekend portion of a crazy week. I had a great week at work: two very productive days of field work in Malmö; Jeff Alexander, with whom I worked last year, and Rick Fantasia were both on campus Wednesday and Thursday. They each gave an interesting talk. Alexander spoke on Europe's turn from multiculturalism. Fantasia shared some of his research on the French culinary landscape – a bourdieusian field analysis of French gastronomy. I loved the talks and of course there were also loads of meals, receptions and general opportunities for spending time with Jeff, Rick and many of my favorite Swedish sociologists. I was a both melancholy and tired this morning when I awoke to my normal life.
The weekend also promises to be full and enjoyable. Tomorrow is Mei-mei's 5th birthday. We just set up her gifts for when she wakes up. Later in the morning we will head to Vårstad (Spring culture fest) downtown. In the afternoon we will come home to prep the birthday party – sushi on the lawn and with friends. Sunday will be another busy day as Jie-jie has her end of the year ballet recital.
The weather has been perfect since last Saturday – sunny, dry, temperature in the mid-70s to 80s. On top of that the sun is up by 4 am and it isn't dark until 11 pm. After the long dark of winter and the cold wet of spring, a day that almost never ends is just the thing!

Dave Sebree
Dave Sebree teaches Austin how to rock.
Soon enough, the rest of the country will be ready to follow suit.
A professional guitar player and performer, Sebree took out a $35,000 Small Business Administration loan in 1995 and opened the Austin School of Music. In 1996, the school posted total gross profit of $210,000.
Eleven years later, the Austin School of Music has grown to two locations, with Sebree's 50-plus instructors teaching about 2,000 students a week. Last year, the schools brought in about $2 million in gross profit. Within the next year, Sebree plans to open a branch in Hutto and a smaller satellite location in the Bee Caves area.
In addition to the schools, Sebree operates a summer camp that kids actually want to attend.
Rock Camp USA is a two-week music course taught by professional musicians that culminates in the young rockers giving live performances before hundreds of music lovers at famed Austin venue Antone's. Rock Camp USA is the only music camp where kids get to record CDs of their music in Sebree's studio.
"The camp was born out of necessity and out of our observation that the kids weren't getting together to play anymore," Sebree says.
The camp has been so successful that it's now getting some amplification.
With the help of friends and fellow musicians, Sebree plans to franchise Rock Camp USA this summer in Houston, San Antonio, Fort Worth, Los Angeles, Oklahoma City and Davenport, Iowa. He chose those cities because musicians who have worked for Sebree have moved there and want to continue supporting the business.
Sebree says he was inspired to franchise the concept by his business mentor, Gary Keller of Keller Williams Realty Inc.
"The plan is to make it successful in these cities by blueprinting the model. This summer, we'll have a crew film me every minute of every day and edit that into a users' manual for the franchisees," Sebree says.
Keller says Rock Camp has proven to be a successful business model.
"The way it has been run by Dave and his team, it can be duplicated by others," Keller says.
The franchisee investment in Rock Camp USA is about $25,000, with franchisees paying the Austin School of Music about 6 percent of the gross. Because Rock Camp USA only operates during the summer, Sebree says there's no real estate investment on the part of franchisees; they simply rent short-term space, perhaps from other music schools.
Austin musician Rachel Loy graduated from Rock Camp and later was hired by Sebree as a music teacher.
Loy says the camp "gives kids an example of older musicians who are stable, and brings the reality of making a career in music a lot closer. We're telling them, 'You really can do this and you can do it now.'"

If there's one word to describe how I felt reading this book, it would be surprise.
When I borrowed the ebook from the library, I thought it would be a memoir of sorts—I adore Tom Hanks, so it seemed like a perfect fit. Little did I know that it was a book of short stories.
"Tom Hanks? Writing short stories?" I thought. "Okay, America's Sweetheart—I'm in."
It took me a little while to get into the first story, mainly because I went in completely blind. But soon I was sucked in to each individual story, frantically flipping pages on my iPad, ready for the next page. There were a few recurring characters who I adored, but most of the stories weren't connected—again, not what I was expecting. However, I really enjoyed reading about such vastly different walks of life.
When I was in high school, I took a class called Writer's Craft. We basically wrote a little bit of everything, fiction and nonfiction. When we got to the short story section, my teacher drilled into me that the short story needs to have a point, a meaning.
Initially I was looking for a meaning for each of these stories, but when I got to the second or third story, I realized that not everything has to have this big, deep, significant meaning. A slice of life, walking a mile in someone else's shoes—that can be just as significant as any deep personal meaning. And that's exactly what Tom Hanks accomplishes here.
He has surprisingly beautiful prose—I immediately understood what he wanted to convey with each passage, and I understood the characters quickly. This is a necessary skill when it comes to short stories—you don't have as much time to get to a character's motivation.
Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this collection of short stories. Tom Hanks drew me in, but the good writing and the characters made me stay. I hope he decides to come out with more short stories—or maybe even a novel—in the future.

Xiaomi has been growing like crazy over the last couple of years. This company is only 5 years old and has managed to accomplish quite a lot thus far. They're the biggest smartphone manufacturer in China, next to Huawei, and are still growing. Xiaomi has released a number of tech gadgets thus far, including smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, fitness trackers, and a number of other products. The company's Mi Band fitness tracker has been quite successful in particular, and the company has revealed some sales numbers for us to take a look at, read on.
The Xiaomi Mi Band is a rather capable fitness tracker which costs only $13, and it's no wonder a number of people jumped at an opportunity to buy this thing. The Mi Band has been available for quite a while now, and Xiaomi has announced that they've sold more than 10 million MI Band units in the first nine months of this year. Keep in mind that this fitness tracker was announced back in July 2014, so the sales number are actually significantly bigger than this. It is also worth mentioning that Xiaomi increased their wearable market share for over 800% in Q3 this year (compared to the same period last year) thanks to the Mi Band. The Mi Band is actually a fitness monitor & a sleep tracker, while it is also water resistant (IP67), and it offers a number of additional options in combination with Xiaomi's Android app. One of those options are notifications, the MI Band doesn't offer a display, but it has three LED lights on the top, which can notify you when particular messages arrive.

The Mi Band 1S is also quite affordable, at launch it was priced at 99 Yuan ($16), which is still a great price for a fitness tracker.

The history of autism is partly built on myths and controversy, some of which have shaped societal attitudes, while others have been enshrined as facts without proper investigation. Needless to say, such attitudes have often led to disastrous effects on the lives of people with autism and their families. In this first instalment of 'Autism: Myths and facts', we will put forward some controversial myths about autism that require further clarification.
Myth #1. Childhood vaccines are the major reason for the increase in autism numbers
One of the greater controversies surrounding Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is centred on whether a link exists between the condition and certain childhood vaccines, particularly the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine. A quick online search turns up plenty of comments from concerned parents and anti-vaccination activists pointing their accusatory fingers. A number of these comments cite a 1998 study linking the MMR vaccine to a hypothetical bowel disorder dubbed autistic enterocolitis. Eventually, this paper was retracted and disowned by its co-authors due to gross misinterpretation of data. In 2011, an editorial published in the British Medical Journal labelled this study as an "elaborate fraud".
Despite the body of evidence that refutes the idea that vaccines cause autism, many parents still decide against having their children immunized, thus placing their children in danger of contracting and spreading serious diseases, including whooping cough, measles or mumps. Not surprisingly, there have been totally avoidable measles outbreaks in recent years, including a recent one in Disneyland, California, and which led to school closures and quarantine measures.
Another reason why people are still concerned with vaccine safety might be the fact that there has been a noticeable increase in autism prevalence in recent years. Many doctors and epidemiologists attribute this to greater disease awareness, leading to increased diagnosis. It is worth noting that until the early 1980s, "autism spectrum" was not a diagnostic category, and it was only in the late eighties that autism was accepted as a developmental disability that lasts a lifetime.
It is worth noting that as a precautionary measure, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), National Institutes of Health (NIH), Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), and the American Academy of Pediatrics had issued two Joint Statements, urging vaccine manufacturers to reduce or eliminate the mercury-based preservative thimerosal in vaccines as soon as possible (CDC 1999) and (CDC 2000). In so doing, thimerosal, which many have blamed for the possible autism link, has fallen long out of favor.
A major study published in 2015 in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) included data from 95,727 children, 2% of whom had an older sibling with ASD. In this large sample of children with older siblings, receipt of the MMR vaccine was not associated with increased risk of ASD, regardless of whether older siblings had ASD. These findings indicate no harmful association between the MMR vaccine and ASD even among children already at higher risk for ASD.
One hopes that this study will put such claims against vaccination to rest, even though until science uncovers potential triggers for autism, doubts will occasionally resurface. In the meantime, we can rest assured that plenty of research is being carried out in trying to elucidate potential genetic and environmental causes of autism.
