According to a recent survey by the National Association of Realtors, over 51% of Americans now pick out their homes online.
Because of this, having a digital presence is essential in the modern real estate industry. Any Realtor who takes their job seriously will have a strong online platform, be it through social media, agent networking groups, or even their own website.
However, the very best agents will stay on the cutting edge of what it takes to keep a prospective buyer engaged and sell a house.
This is where virtual tours come in.
What are 360 home tours?
A 360 home tour is a digital presentation that tries to entice potential homebuyers into scheduling a viewing. When creating a 360 home tour, you use a new and exciting technology called 360 photography.
These photographs essentially create a digital open house. When a guest clicks on the picture, they have the ability to explore it and experience the photo however they want.
For example, instead of just having a photo of the living room that leads into the dining room, a 360 photograph shows how the two rooms are connected. In a way very similar to a panoramic photo, a 360 photo allows users to scroll inside of it and experience an image from different angles.
This way, potential homebuyers can really get a sense of the floor plan of a home before they even arrive. The goal is to virtually drop them into your home. You want them to feel like they are standing in the middle of your kitchen or family room, turning in small circles, taking it everything around them at a pace that feels right to them.
Are 360 home tours different from virtual staging or regular photography?
When well done, 360 home tours are very different than just virtual staging and regular photography. However, the problem is that they are often not. You cannot take grainy photos and put them into a continuously looping slideshow and consider that to be a virtual tour. You actually need to put a little bit of effort into the craft!
Because of this, you will typically need to hire a 360 photographer, or be working with a real estate agent that has put a significant amount of effort into understanding the process.
This is because a 360 tour can essentially be an online open house. You want guests to be able to progress through the home and photographs at their own pace. This way, they can have a look at all the features and decide if they would like to see it in person.
However, this is something important to keep in mind: when creating an online presence for your home, your main goal is to sell the property.
You need to create an experience that highlights your home's awesome features and is easy to use for those who are home buying. You do not need to invest more money and time into an experience than you need to.
Partner with your Realtor before committing to a company or software that creates the most technologically advanced virtual tour on the market. You just want to make sure that your listing is competitive for your market.
How much do 360 home tours cost?
The price can vary greatly for a 360 tour. This is because companies base the price for their services on the size and floor plan of your home.
Smaller houses with closed off plans might cost the same as larger houses with open plans, simply because they require the same amount of photos. If you want to do a 360 tour, be sure to reach out to multiple local companies for quotes before you commit to working with one.
What are the benefits of a 360 home tour?
The benefits of a 360 home tour would essentially be more return on investment for less work. This is because you set up an online real estate listing with all of these great photos and do the initial work to get the listing out there. Then, if marketed properly, hundreds of eyes will see the listing without you or your agent needing to lift another finger.
These potential buyers can get to know the house and decide if they would like to schedule a viewing based solely on the real estate photography. This way, when you do have people inquire or come around to see the house, you know they are a little bit more serious about it. This can lead to a faster, more competitive sale.
What are the drawbacks of a 360 home tour?
Of course, the outcome of a 360 home tour can also swing in the complete opposite direction. If you did not market the tour effectively, then it will not show up in any search engines or on social media sites. Because of this, all of the time, money, and effort invested into the project could be for nothing. That is, if no one actually sees the listing in the first place. This is why you need to have a good management system in place.
Potential buyers could also very passively look at the photos with no intention of ever contacting you (but hey, it is a numbers game, the more the better!), they could become frustrated with the technology and pass on the house because they can't figure out to view the photos, or they could feel like it is too impersonal to simply view a real estate listing online.
However, the good thing is that all of these problems are easily managed with a little common sense. Make sure your tour is high quality with clear usage instructions and that your Realtor's contact information is also easily accessible.

Wild Lab
Inspired by STEM-based inquiry learning, Wild Lab allows students to become a scientist for the day: explore nature, examine clues, investigate unique zoo-based resources, piece together puzzles, and solve problems in an interactive play-based setting.
Program Description
Join us in our Wild Lab and explore the natural world in our exciting outdoor laboratory. Student scientists will be presented with numerous problem-based activities and able to experiment, observe, test ideas: discovering a way of knowing and doing to create a better world where all living things can thrive.

Able to engage all their senses, students can dive in to hands-on, minds-on, self-directed exploration. Guided discussion and rich investigations will help students to develop understandings of where plants and animals live, what they need to survive and how we can care for them and their habitats.During the day, students will learn about the form and function of different plants and animals, their habitats, and what they require to survive in their environments. Students will be encouraged to gather information through investigations and consider questions about the form and function of a variety of plants and animals.
Students in Wild Lab will learn:
- The form and function of various animal and plant species
- The purpose and use of different materials used in habitat building
- How to sort, match and classify a variety of objects and features through play-based learning

Odell Sharpe (search), killed during World War II, is finally coming home. The remains of Sharpe — presumed slain on Christmas Day 1944 when he as only 19 — were recently identified from a skeleton found in a foxhole near the Belgian-German border. Now his family is preparing for something long overdue: a funeral. "I had just made up my mind that I would never know what happened to him, and believe you me, there was many a day I wondered," his sister, Mary Miller (search), said Wednesday from her home in the farm town of Uvalda. Three Belgian civilians working for a non-governmental group that searches for lost World War II (search) casualties discovered the remains in September 2003. They found pieces of an infantry soldier's uniform, a skeleton, upper and lower jawbones and dog tags bearing Sharpe's name. The military did not notify Sharpe's family until more than a year later, after thoroughly analyzing the bones and teeth to make sure they matched Sharpe's medical records. Sharpe's unit was among 80,000 troops in Belgium trying to stop a German force of 250,000 from advancing against Allied lines in an initial assault of the Battle of the Bulge. Sharpe was lost during the confusion of a forced retreat On Sunday, Sharpe will be buried next to his parents in the family plot at Dead River Cemetery. Soldiers from Fort Stewart will provide full military honors — serving as pallbearers, presenting the family with a flag and firing a three-volley salute as a bugler plays taps. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,145551,00.html

It's the start of a new year for students at Guildhall.
On Tuesday, we had an introduction to Stage Management session with all first year Technical Theatre students. We had some great group discussions on the roles within Stage Management teams and their responsibilities, as well as learning where everyone's most interesting place to visit was – one student said their most interesting place to visit was bed!
Then we played some games based on communication and teamwork. You can see the results of one of the games in the photos – being shown some props for 15 seconds and then having to draw the tray from memory.
Happy new year to all students!

Searching For......
There once was a person named Christian who was a follower of the Way. Christian lived amongst the others. He worked the fields and his hard labor produced much fruit. He would sit in the family barn and eat from the harvest until he was full, yet he still was not satisfied. His hunger pangs beckoned him to find more. Knowing that his neighbor had an even bigger crop, he waited until dark, then he snuck into his neighbor's field and plucked some fruit from the vine. The fruit looked succulent and perfect. Christian was sure that this fruit would satisfy him. He took a bite, and spat it out at once. The shiny, delicious looking fruit's pulp was dull and lacked depth.
Unimpressed, Christian continued his search for satisfaction. He thought he saw it go around the corner. Christian continued his pursuit until he went home overly fatigued and frustrated. As bedtime approached and Christian laid his head on his pillow, he cried out to God in anguish. Why could he not be fulfilled with his own harvest? Why could he not be content with his neighbor's harvest? God told Christian that contentment came in God----not in the temporary joys.
Christian is all of us----a Christian that is often looking for the next best thing. Christian did not find peace in what he already had. Christian did not find peace in what the neighbors had. Christian searched relentlessly and the answer was right there. God has never moved; we are just too busy chasing our tails to see His work before us.

This article is not about the seven guns I would recommend; though I wish it were. Instead, this is about our local community and what you may not be aware of.
This article is not about the seven guns I would recommend; though I wish it were. Instead, this is about our local community and what you may not be aware of.
While sipping coffee on Sunday I flipped through the local paper and found a �sampling� of the police blotter for last week in Wilmington. What struck me as frightening was that during a seven-day period, Thursday through Wednesday, seven guns, handguns and shotguns were stolen during residential break-ins in Wilmington alone.
What does this tell me? It tells me that our laws are working. Criminals are not allowed to legally purchase guns; so therefore, they turn to the next step: theft. My only concern is that the five or so homes broken into didn�t secure their firearms in such a way that they couldn�t be easily stolen. We need to change our mindset. I don�t care if you have kids or not; when you are away, your firearms need to be locked up.
Every time a customer purchases a gun I give them a bit of free advice. I tell them to use their smart phone and to take a picture of the serial number and the firearm they just purchased. Email it to yourself, store it somewhere where it can be accessible by you if needed. North Carolina doesn�t have a gun registry so only you and the place or person you bought it from knows the numbers. Don�t be silly, take the 15 minutes or so and get it done TODAY. Lock up your guns. Buy a safe � you can get a good floor safe for around $400 that cannot be carried away by one person. Make theft difficult! These firearms are yours; and you have invested time and in most cases a lot of money in them, don�t be cheap now.
What do you do if you discover your gun is missing? Call the local police immediately and file a report. Contact all local gun shops and pawn shops within 50 miles. Do not expect police to do this; oddly enough, they normally won�t. Contact your neighbors and local businesses since most break-ins are not a single offense unless it�s personal. Check your phones for missed calls. It is very common for thieves to call you repetitively to learn your schedule over the course of up to two weeks before.
Most stolen guns do not end up in the local area, but stay on top of your contact list because you may be one of the lucky ones.
Good guys don�t steal guns. Law abiding citizens don�t steal guns. Be careful who you show your firearms to and don�t think that just because they are �nice� that they won�t be capable of theft. Some of the greatest criminals in the world sweet talk their victims. A gun is quick cash to a drug addict.

I have a theme installed, TheStyle by ElegantThemes. Every time I fiddle with conditional logic, my template goes haywire. How can I debug this issue and fix it? I love Gravity Forms, but I'm so fed up with this issue. I'm about to slam my head into the wall.
I think it may have something to do with cufon font replacement, but I can't be sure. Please help me resolve this. I can't make the site public, as it is being worked on privately. I can private message a GF admin with details if necessary. From there, maybe we can bring the solution back to this post. Please help me! I love GF, but HATE this issue!!!

Nicholas Barra of Rochelle Park, formerly of Garfield and Passaic, NJ, and Nagykapos, Hungary; passed away quietly on August 22 surrounded by his loving family after a long and brave battle with cancer.
Nick was born on December 2, 1935, in Nagykapos and immigrated to the United States with his older brother on the Queen Mary in 1947. Nick lived in Passaic during his formative years, honing his English from comic books and movies at the Boys Club. After surmounting an intense language barrier, he graduated from Passaic High School. He continued his education at Fairleigh Dickinson University and earned a bachelor's degree and a MBA. Always the proud American, he was honorably discharged from the U. S. Army in 1962 after having been drafted in 1959. Continuing his service to his country, Nick worked for the U.S. Department of Labor as a compliance officer from 1969 to 2002. A devout Christian, he was a member of the Hungarian Reformed Church in Passaic, where he later served as an elder and volunteer for over 70 years. Nick was a proud member of Rochelle Park Legion Post 170. He served as a team member of the Bergen County Board of Elections for several years. Nick is survived by his loving wife, Margaret (nee Ehasz), 3 sons, 4 grandchildren, and 4 daughters-in law. He will be remembered as a loving grandpa. He is survived by many cousins, nephews, extended family, church peers and fond friends. He will be greeted in heaven by those who left before him: his mother, father (who was taken away by the Russians in WWII), his sister, Pearl, and his brother Zigmund.
Interment at George Washington Memorial Park, Paramus. In lieu of flowers, donations in Nick's name would be greatly appreciated to the Hungarian Reformed Church in Passaic. Visit www.bizub.com for driving directions/ online condolences.

A bill calling for a two-year pilot program to test the privatization of child welfare services passed the House on Tuesday.
Senate Bill 350, which would privatize services such as foster care and adoption in certain parts of the state, did not receive the 91 votes needed to pass during the first vote. But members quickly chose to reconsider the bill, and it passed the second time around with a 104-70 vote.
The bill was altered significantly from the original version approved by the Senate, which called for the statewide privatization of child welfare services by 2017. Senate leaders are unhappy with the changes and still hope to get privatization passed this session.
Passing the pilot allows the House to keep conversation going with the Senate, said House Speaker Pro-Tem Jan Jones, R-Milton.

Wallpaperer Lewes
Wallpaperer Lewes East Sussex (BN7): While decorating fads have changed substantially over time, wallpaper is one of those old favourites that every once in a while pops into fashion. During the nineteen sixties and seventies the majority of residential properties in Lewes would have been totally decorated in wallpaper. During the last twenty years or so it's been more for use in decorating single "feature" walls as opposed to covering the whole house.
Of course, putting up wallpaper is in no way an easy thing to do properly, particularly when compared with painting. And although competent decorators make it appear like it's as easy as pie, for the ordinary homeowner it is something of a nightmare. There are particular procedures that should be observed with hanging wallpaper, and only a pro will know the correct way to tackle this.
With an escalating number of homeowners in Lewes choosing the do-it-yourself option in relation to decorating, the reality that wallpaper has to an extent been kicked into touch is not at all surprising. Painting mainly requires a brush and roller, whereby in order to wallpaper a room you will need a wide range of equipment and tools.
If you are even going to think about attempting wallpapering on your own you are going to at least need to have a pasting table, a paperhangers brush, filling/stripping knifes, a pasting brush, a steamer, a seam roller, scrapers, a chalk line, a trimming edge, wallpaper scissors, a taping knife, a sharp utility knife, a wallpaper smoother, a wallpaper perforator and step ladder. You should consider calling on the services of a qualified Lewes wallpaper hanger, if this list discourages you in any way.
Since putting up wallpaper is an undertaking that only fully trained painters and decorators are truly adept at, it mightn't be that simple to track down a person in Lewes who can guarantee to do a decent job. You're cautioned to keep away from "odd job man" type people, who will undoubtedly have a crack at wallpaper hanging, but of course will not actually understand the right procedures for accomplishing a professional finish.
In order to get a sense of what papering specialists in Lewes are charging currently (and it isn't usually cheap), you will need to obtain 3 or 4 price quotes which you can ponder. Don't forget to ask to see a portfolio of their work so that you're able to see their level of expertise, and never unwittingly opt for the cheapest estimate if you're expecting a premium quality job to be done.
When you happen to be searching for a reliable Lewes wallpaperer, there are a few methods both online and offline that you can try to great advantage. You can evaluate reviews on the web though these have been known to be manipulated and shouldn't automatically be relied on, or you could head over to Rated People, My Builder or maybe one of the other trade review portals, where contented local customers will have kindly rated Lewes wallpaperers to help you decide. You can listen to local radio advertising or search in local newspapers, but anybody can use these, and there's no guarantee of the quality of their craftsmanship. The preferred wallpaperers to hire are the people who have already proven their worth, therefore soliciting recommendations from friends and family is generally the best method.
Thanks to the wide selection of wallpaper styles and designs, it's no easy feat to select which one to opt for. You local Lewes wallpapering expert will be happy to help you decide on what wallpaper goes best where, and what does not. You should choose carefully with regards to the design, because you can very quickly become fed up with a flamboyant design and specific patterns go out of fashion regularly, and you do not want to be switching it every five minutes. The fact is that wallpaper isn't so simple to modify when you are looking for a new look, and it is much costlier to change than paint.
The standard of the final papered finish will only correlate to the state of the underlying walls themselves, even when using the services of the most talented wallpapering specialist in Lewes. Cautiously installing the wallpaper so that there are no gaps, creases or air-bubbles, and that the pattern matches up flawlessly. If the eventual finish has got bumps and lumps that will be down to a poor surface finish beneath the wallpaper. Your wallpaperer will make ready the wall surfaces to the best of his or her ability, but walls which are not flat may have to be skimmed by a plasterer beforehand.
Lewes Wallpaper Stripping Service
If you would like to alter the decorative design of your property and you've already got a wallpapered finish to your rooms, the old wallpaper must be removed from the walls. This will be included as part of the overall service with the majority of wallpaperers in Lewes, though others may insist that you organise this yourself. You may be able to locate a company in Lewes that provides this as a specialist service, as there are people around who deal with this kind of thing. As this is one of the most tedious and yuckiest aspects of the re-decorating process, having a pro handy when stripping wallpaper from a wall is undoubtedly an advantage. By using hard graft and the best steaming devices, they will quickly and effectively remove the layers of old paper, providing a lovely clean surface which is ready to be re-papered.

We spent the night in the ER this week with Payton to remove a popcorn kernel from her ear. She let little sister Emma Grace put a kernel in her ear. Of course mom wasn't told for a few days until started really causing pain. My crazy girl didn't like the doctor very much that night. He was able to get behind the kernel to move pull it out and she got alittle upset pushing the tool into her ear kernel so what we thought was going to be a quick trip turned into a long evening and being sedated to remove the tool. She was fighter even being sedated this momma and her girl had a very long sad night. We are lucky going very well and will not be putting anything in our ears ! Thank you to our amazing doctors and nurses for being so patient with us!!

Winston Peters is having a whinge about the cost of the investigation into the salad dodger Gerry Brownlee and his transgression with airport security
NZ First leader Winston Peters says Defence Minister Gerry Brownlee should pay for $43,550 in legal and staff costs for an inquiry into his security breach at Christchurch Airport last year.
Mr Peters released information obtained under the Official Information Act which showed the total cost included $21,275 for a peer review of the CAA's findings by lawyer Mary Scholtens and $17,490 in staff time for the Civil Aviation Authority. ?
Mr Brownlee stood down as Minister of Transport and apologised for bypassing security screening in June because he and his staff were running late. He was later fined $2000 after the Civil Aviation Authority investigation.
Mr Peters said Mr Brownlee's behaviour was "arrogant".
"He was carried away, believing as a minister he was above the law … All Mr Brownlee got for his action in July last year was a $2000 fine. Civil Aviation investigated the breach, no doubt to stop it happening again, with costs of $43,550."
Maybe Winston could pay for it out of the 158,000?he still owes the taxpayer and we call it quits.

Whilst I don't think its healthy to dwell on the downsides in life, I came upon this short film by Chris Freer today. It's almost exactly a year since my home town was flooded so dramatically, and as a member of Cockermouth Mountain rescue team I was able to do something that directly helped the rescue and recovery effort.

Whilst films and pictures of the events of those few days are readily available, this piece shows quite neatly the way that Chris and his young family were affected by what happened.

In the meantime, the town is nearly fixed and most of the building work is complete.

It was happening again. Following another humid South Carolina rain, I sat beside my 6-year old sister, Trinh, who was having a "spell" – what we now know was some type of re-experiencing or panic attack - likely related to her boat escape from Vietnam just 10 days following the fall of Saigon. At the time, I could only do what my 5-year old self thought was best. Hold her hand, get the dog, tell her everything was going to be alright and wait for the spell to pass

Hong Kong and Shanghai are locked in an increasingly public struggle to become China's main financial center as a top-level committee in Beijing prepares to meet later this month to map out a national financial regulatory strategy.
On Monday, Hong Kong's highest government leaders and best-known business tycoons made the city's case at a series of televised conferences and briefings.
They called for China to continue letting the biggest state-owned companies make their initial public offerings in Hong Kong, allow the yuan to circulate more widely and dismantle many remaining financial barriers.
Shanghai's efforts have been less public. They have also been harmed by a spreading corruption scandal that has led to the arrest of the city's top Communist Party official and a growing number of business leaders.
But as the traditional center of Chinese business life, Shanghai still has many allies in the capital. It has also emerged as the center of Chinese bond trading and as a favorite headquarters for Chinese and foreign companies.
The jostling between the two cities is coming close to name-calling. Ronald Arculli, chairman of the company that runs Hong Kong's stock exchanges, said that just as New York is the main financial center for the Americas even though Chicago or Toronto may not like it, Hong Kong is poised to become the main international financial center for Asia.
Asked if he was suggesting that Hong Kong was becoming like New York and Shanghai like Chicago, Arculli said twice that this was his goal, adding: "We stand a decent shot of making it there."
That is hardly the view from Shanghai. City leaders and academics point out their biggest advantage: The currency circulating in the streets and markets is the yuan, which foreigners can buy and sell only with difficulty.
Hong Kong has its own currency, the Hong Kong dollar, which is linked to the US dollar. The Hong Kong dollar is internationally convertible but cannot be easily exchanged for yuan on the mainland because of China's capital controls.
"The independent monetary system restricts Hong Kong's ambition to become the financial capital of the country," said Pan Yingli (
In back-to-back ceremonies and briefings on Monday at the main government offices in Hong Kong and at the convention center, Hong Kong officials tried to exploit Shanghai's temporary political weakness and push Beijing into making Hong Kong the primary financial center of China.
"If we do not act now," Bank of East Asia chairman David Li (
Hong Kong and Shanghai are not just competing with each other -- they are also vying with Tokyo and Singapore to become the most important financial center in Asia. Each wants to be the place where investment banks, hedge funds, insurance companies and other big investors send their best and brightest to oversee trading during the hours after the sun sets in New York and before it rises in London.
Intense rivalry
Each city has its strengths. Tokyo has the region's largest stock and bond markets, although they have attracted less attention lately because they lack the appeal of the Chinese economic boom. Singapore is the main center for trading oil and other energy products and is an important hub for currency trading.
But the most intense rivalry is between Hong Kong and Shanghai. Each strives to impress businesses and regulators that it is the best place for Chinese businesses to raise money and investors to give it to them.
It is one of the oldest rivalries in Asia, dating back more than a century. The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, these days HSBC, was started in Hong Kong on March 3, 1865, and opened for business in Shanghai a month later.
While Shanghai overshadowed Hong Kong in many ways before World War II, Hong Kong regained leadership after the Communist Party takeover in 1949, and benefited from the emigration of thousands of Shanghai businesspeople. But in the 1990s, the rise of a Shanghai faction of politicians in China, including then president Jiang Zemin (
Since taking China's top jobs in late 2002 and 2003, President Hu Jintao (
With the city mired in a corruption scandal, Hong Kong is trying to seize the initiative again. As Hong Kong's leaders repeated again and again on Monday, Hong Kong has advantages now that include rule of law, extensive financial expertise, a tradition of strong corporate governance, widespread knowledge of English and close ties to global markets.
As a result of listings by big Chinese banks and other institutions, Hong Kong's main stock exchange had a greater volume of initial public offerings last year -- valued at US$41.22 billion -- than any other stock exchange, although more money was raised in London overall.
But while Hong Kong aspires to be an international financial center, it is sometimes derided in Asia as a "one-legged stool" -- a powerhouse in equities trading, including a doubling of trading in stocks and derivative warrants last year, but without another leg to stand on.
Close to 200 bond issues are listed in Hong Kong, but local banks and insurance companies tend to buy them up when issued and then sit on them for years, with minimal trading. The local government runs a budget surplus, and while it has issued a small volume of bonds to help create a market, these also trade in very low volume.
While corporate bond trading is still in its infancy in Shanghai as well, the trading of government debt securities there has picked up. The Chinese central bank has had to issue tens of billions of US dollars in notes to sop up the enormous amounts in yuan it is pushing into the market to prevent China's currency from appreciating in value against other currencies.
Hong Kong business leaders are dismissive of Shanghai's stock market. Hong Kong exchange chief executive Paul Chow (
But although Shanghai's stock market is still considerably smaller than Hong Kong's, it is also rising faster and was the world's top performer last year, up 130 percent.
Shanghai has lost a couple rounds lately. The government authorized Hong Kong last Wednesday to begin trading bonds denominated in yuan, and has selected Tianjin, a big port near Beijing, not Shanghai, for an experiment with limited convertibility of the yuan.
Hong Kong also plans to start trading nondeliverable futures contracts on the yuan this summer, Chow said. And while officials directed General Motors in 1997 to open its initial Chinese car assembly plant in Shanghai, it steered Airbus last year to select Tianjin for an aircraft assembly plant.
But Shanghai is becoming an important center of commodities trading. It has just passed Tokyo as the biggest market for trading natural rubber, testimony to the buying power of Chinese industrial companies.
Hong Kong has very little commodities trading, losing much of its former role in international gold markets. Hong Kong gold prices were quoted around the world in the 1980s, but have become much less important as the handful of local gold traders continue to do business exclusively in Chinese and have not welcomed international banks and trading houses.
Mainland China still has many restrictions on the private ownership of gold, slowing but not preventing the creation of a modern gold market in Shanghai with ambitions to become an important force in global trading. Shanghai is also setting up futures markets to allow Chinese traders to place bets on the direction of the country's interest rates.
Experts said that Shanghai was likely to become an increasingly formidable competitor in years to come and expressed doubt that Hong Kong leaders would succeed in persuading the Chinese government to give their city clear regulatory preference over its rival to the north. Beijing officials are still more likely to think of Shanghai than Hong Kong as a domestic financial market entitled to regulatory favors.
"Shanghai is in a temporary eclipse because of these political factors," said Jack Lange, a partner in the Hong Kong office of the law firm Paul, Weiss. "But Shanghai is where it's happening -- if there is going to be a domestic financial center that gives Hong Kong a run for its money, it's going to be Shanghai."
With its passing of Hong Kong's new National Security Law, the People's Republic of China (PRC) continues to tighten its noose on Hong Kong. Gone is the broken 1997 promise that Hong Kong would have free, democratic elections by 2017. Gone also is any semblance that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) plays the long game. All the CCP had to do was hold the fort until 2047, when the "one country, two systems" framework would end and Hong Kong would rejoin the "motherland." It would be a "demonstration-free" event. Instead, with the seemingly benevolent velvet glove off, the CCP has revealed its true iron
At the end of last month, Paraguayan Ambassador to Taiwan Marcial Bobadilla Guillen told a group of Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) legislators that his president had decided to maintain diplomatic ties with Taiwan, despite pressure from the Chinese government and local businesses who would like to see a switch to Beijing. This followed the Paraguayan Senate earlier this year voting against a proposal to establish ties with China in exchange for medical supplies. This constituted a double rebuke of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) diplomatic agenda in a six-month span from Taiwan's only diplomatic ally in South America. Last year, Tuvalu rejected an
South China Sea exercises in July by two United States Navy nuclear-powered aircraft carriers reminds that Taiwan's history since mid-1950, and as a free nation, is intertwined with that of the aircraft carrier. Eventually Taiwan will host aircraft carriers, either those built under its democratic government or those imposed on its territory by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN). By September 1944, a lack of sufficient carrier airpower and land-based airpower persuaded US Army and Navy leaders to forgo an invasion to wrest Taiwan from Japanese control, thereby sparing Taiwanese considerable wartime destruction. But two
As Taiwan is engulfed in worries about Chinese infiltration, news reports have revealed that power inverters made by China's Huawei Technologies Co are used in the solar panels on the top of the Legislative Yuan's Zhenjiang House (鎮江會館) on Zhenjiang Street in Taipei. However, what is even more worrying is that Taiwan's new national electronic identification card (eID) has been subcontracted to the French security firm and eID maker Idemia, which has not only cooperated with the Chinese Public Security Bureau to manufacture eIDs in China, but also makes the new identification cards being issued in Hong Kong. There might be more

Genes define who we are, at least in a physical sense, since they determine your traits. A tiny difference in DNA can specify whether you are a human of a chimp. But how does it work? How can genes, fragments of DNA determine traits? How can genes, for example, determine your eye color, height or even what flowers you like? Let's find out.
Why humans and chimps look different if 99% of their genes are identical?
Depending on who you ask, humans and chimps share 96 to 99 percent of genes. Yet we look staggeringly different. Or do we? Since genes alter our traits, we would expect organisms with so much of their genome identical, also look similar, right?
Chromosome fusion: Why humans have fewer chromosomes than chimps
You may have heard that we humans have 23 chromosome pairs, whereas our closest neighbors chimpanzees have 24 — one pair more. Do we have to worry that humans have fewer chromosomes than chimps do? What is the function of those extra chromosomes that chimps need and we don't? Let's find out.
