Parents or a legal guardian traveling with children under 18 years must present the child's birth certificate and an identity card with photo (passport, for example) at the check-in. For international travels from Brazil, if just one of the parents is traveling with the child, she/he must present – in addition to the child's certificate of birth and identity card with photo – a letter authorizing the trip signed by the other parent with a notarial certification of signature. In case the parents or the legal guardian, as applicable, cannot or are unwilling to give this authorization, a judicial authorization is required. People who intend to travel to Brazil with children must consult with the Brazilian consulate before traveling for more information.

Christopher Slowe, a five-year veteran of Reddit who has been in charge of the Conde Nast-owned social news site since the departure of its founders Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian last year, announced on Monday that he's leaving his post. He'll be joining Hipmunk, the travel search site that Huffman launched a few months ago and which brought Ohanian on board in September.
Great news Chris!
We just put our original building at 135 Garden St in Cambridge on the market. We hesitated for a long time because this is such a unique building. It's like a loft inside, and yet within walking distance of Harvard Square. I know how rare that combination is because I remember how long I looked for this building. If I'd been able to think of any excuse for keeping it, I would have. (I'm still open to suggestions.)The building is in a residential neighborhood and has been used as a residence for most of its life, although it was originally a candy factory. The people who lived there before I bought it were into cooking, so it has a very high quality kitchen. We improved the place a lot, most notably by having recording studio grade soundproof doors and windows installed. Garden Street has a fair amount of traffic, but we solved the noise problem pretty thoroughly: there are 1600 pounds of glass in the windows, and the doors drop down into slots as they swing closed. We also had larger skylights installed. Plus there was already a greenhouse set into the roof. The result is a place that surprises everyone who walks into it. In the middle of Cambridge you walk into what seems a fairly nondescript building, and inside is a huge, quiet, light space.

Restaurants in Jalan Imbi (Off Jalan Imbi) – 93 Restaurants
Levain Boulangerie and Pattiserie
chryshijing posted chryshijing.blogspot.com.au 39 ReviewsExceptional
There was a time when friends were incessantly posting photos and checking-in on Facebook when they dined at this place. I wondered what all the hype was about, really. Although I have been driving past this place for a few years since I attended piano lessons over in the Imbi area, I did not realise its popularity. And so when the bestie asked where to go for lunch, I quickly suggested Levain.

New neurons help us to remember fear. Fear burns memories into our brain, and new research by University of California, Berkeley, neuroscientists explains how.
Scientists have long known that fear and other highly emotional experiences lead to incredibly strong memories. In a study appearing online today (Tuesday, June 14) in advance of publication in the journal Molecular Psychiatry, UC Berkeley's Daniela Kaufer and colleagues report a new way for emotions to affect memory: The brain's emotional center, the amygdala, induces the hippocampus, a relay hub for memory, to generate new neurons.

Envisioning emerging technology for 2012 and beyond (by Michell Zappa) Only In The Future. Light pulses control graphene's electrical behavior. Graphene, an ultrathin form of carbon with exceptional electrical, optical, and mechanical properties, has become a focus of research on a variety of potential uses.
Now researchers at MIT have found a way to control how the material conducts electricity by using extremely short light pulses, which could enable its use as a broadband light detector. The new findings are published in the journal Physical Review Letters, in a paper by graduate student Alex Frenzel, Nuh Gedik, and three others. The researchers found that by controlling the concentration of electrons in a graphene sheet, they could change the way the material responds to a short but intense light pulse.
If the graphene sheet starts out with low electron concentration, the pulse increases the material's electrical conductivity. 33rd Square. Human Proteome Map. The Electric Universe.

Computer Scientists Find That Evolution May Not Require Outside Factors. Scientists replicate key evolutionary step in life on earth. (PhysOrg.com) -- More than 500 million years ago, single-celled organisms on Earth's surface began forming multi-cellular clusters that ultimately became plants and animals.
Just how that happened is a question that has eluded evolutionary biologists. Now scientists have replicated that key step in the laboratory using common Brewer's yeast, a single-celled organism. The yeast "evolved" into multi-cellular clusters that work together cooperatively, reproduce and adapt to their environment--in essence, they became precursors to life on Earth as it is today. The results are published in this week's issue of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

Researchers at Rice University have come up with a new technology for oil-absorbing sponges. The sponges are made of carbon nanotubes with a splash of boron . They are elastic, compressible, flexible, lightweight, and they hate water and love oil. When a sponge is placed on the surface of water, it floats across the surface until coming across oil, which it then readily absorbs. Nanosilicon rapidly splits water without light, heat, or electricity.

VentureBeat - "This smart pen's ink changes based on whatever color you scan"
IFLScience - "Pen lets you draw any color in the world"
Daily Mail - "Forget crayons Multicolour pen lets pick colour draw 16 million shades"

Science Alert - "This pen lets you draw every single colour in the world"
iO9 - "This Incredible Pen Lets You Write In Any Color You See"
The Daily Dot - "The Scribble pen lets you draw using any color in the world"
With the Scribble scanning and capturing any color is easy and fast. Simple hold the Scribble's scanner up to any color, like on a wall, a fruit, a book or magazine, a painting or even a child's toy and within a second or two that color is stored in Scribble's internal memory.
Once stored, that color can then be used to draw on paper (with the Scribble INK)
or to draw on a digital screen (with the Scribble STYLUS) instantly.
The Scribble is intended for anyone who needs access to a wide range of colors as well as the facility to easily and quickly reproduce any color.. Children will love the Scribble because it can create a myriad of different colors, completely replacing even their biggest box of crayons or marking pens. It will also let them instantly scan and draw with any color they see on any object around them.
Artists, graphic designers, interior decorators, fashion designers, or anyone working with color in their professional lives, will be able to scan color from any product, surface or chart, and instantly reproduce the identical color, to be used either on paper or on an electronic device of their choice.
Our nib set offers you a fantastic range of stroke weights. Choose from fine to heavy depending on your mood! We offer 6 tip sizes, 0.3mm, 0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 2.5mm and 3.71mm
Those with color vision problems, homeowners and professional painters will find Scribble to be an amazing tool that makes their lives much easier with its color scanning ability. Any color can be scanned and reproduced, making color-matching a breeze and home / business painting much simpler.
Both the Scribble Stylus and Ink can hold thousands of different colors and reproduce them exactly. The Scribble will literally replace a box full of crayons or marking pens and make color reproduction fast and simple for any project and application.
The Scribble Pen and Stylus pairs with a mobile app to instantly sync every color you scan directly onto your iPhone, iPad or Android mobile device. Your colors become more useful when they are organized, tagged, searchable and converted to various color models.
One of the most outstanding features of the Scribble is that, since it can reproduce any color, it replaces thousands of marking pens, thereby greatly reducing the huge amount of plastic waste cluttering up our landfills all over the world.
There will be 2 Scribble pens, the Scribble INK and the Scribble STYLUS. The INK will be able to reproduce exact colors on regular paper. It features a color sensor, 1 GB of internal memory that will store over 100,000 UNIQUE colors, a rechargeable Battery, Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity, a Micro-processor and 5 ink cartridges. The STYLUS features are exactly the same as the INK, minus the ink cartridges as it is intended for use on a computer screen.

We've been in the design process for two years and the Scribble has gone through various design changes to get it to where we are now, a working prototype that's ready for use in home and business applications. Because of its small size we have created a number of innovations never seen before in the color reproduction industry. We are also always looking for feedback and opinions from our supporters and want to create a community of supporters as part of this Kickstarter project. We created Scribble for YOU and want you to be a part of the process!
Thank you so much for taking the time to check out our Kickstarter Campaign and discover the Scribble. Thank you also for your generous support! Make sure to bookmark our Kickstarter page and check back often to see the progress of the campaign as well as the updated times for manufacturing and delivery of your Scribble.
Risks and challenges
As with any ground-breaking and innovative project, risks and challenges are a major factor. At this stage, we have identified our primary real significant risk to be the injection moulding process. This process involves the largest outlay of capital expenditure. We want to get the best quality finish for the Scribble Pen and as such, our team has put a considerable amount of time into sourcing our injection moulded parts and working with the relevant suppliers.
Our R&D team consists of many multi-talented individuals with vast experience in the fields of engineering, color science and industrial design. To get to where we are today, we have overcome many challenges and have made great progress in identifying and assessing the risks which are part of this highly complex project.
The greatest challenge we now face, is taking this project from a working prototype into mass production. Our design is highly complex and innovative and we require unique production technology.
Many Kickstarter campaigns encounter difficulties at this crucial stage of taking the prototype into production. The challenge involves finding the correct suppliers and engineering products and ensuring that the production process will be smooth and risk free. We have been working for many months on this, negotiating with suppliers, testing component quality, and building up a strong team that will be able to deliver on our promises.
From the start of our campaign through to the delivery, we intend to keep you fully updated on all the stages of our progress. We will keep you fully informed regarding details of unexpected issues or delays, if any, and we promise to be fully transparent on all aspects of the project at all times.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
You may purchase a new ink cartridge via our website after the campaign
NO. Scribble connects to your mobile phone via Bluetooth and it requires no Internet connection to work.
Absolutely, the Scribble pen works with or without a mobile device. You will be able to capture colors even if you don't own or use a smartphone
Yes, we will be offering an option of harder, finer tips for the Stylus Pen, as well as the standard soft rubber tip.
You will be able to refill a single color.
We estimate an average price of $15-$30
The Scribble Pen and Stylus comes with a ONE year warranty
SDK is short for software development kit,. It's a programming package that enables a programmer to develop applications for a specific platform. Typically an SDK includes one or more APIs, programming tools, and documentation.
The Scribble Ink pen is designed to draw on paper while the Scribble Stylus pen is designed for drawing on a digital screen. The Ink pen comes with a cartridge set, while the Stylus pen does not.
The Scribble pen does not mix huge amounts of ink at a time. Rather, the ink is mixed as the pen is being used. This is to ensure that ink management is at its optimum and the time for switch over is minimal. Very little ink will be wasted in the change over from one color to the next, even if the colors are far apart in the color spectrum.
The Scribble mobile app is completely FREE for all Kickstarter backers.
The standard Scribble pen comes with a rollerball tip. We are currently working on felt tips as we see that there is a large interest in this option.
No, the Ink pen cannot draw on a digital screen.

London based DJ and producer Alan Fitzpatrick is rightly feeling the fruits of his labour in 2014. After releasing upfront, killer cuts on the likes of Adam Beyer's Drumcode label and touring rather unrelentingly around the globe, the UK producer and DJ maintains a healthy, pro-active spirit to his career after 15 years of working his way to the top of techno tree.

I got this for my husband for Christmas, along with another book, and he is so excited about learning more about 'billiards'! - says it is just what he wanted!
All of Robert Byrne's Pool Books are great, and this book is no exception. It is great for the novice or experienced Pool player. You can pick up so much from Robert Byrne's instructions and explanations. I would recommend this book to anyone. In addition, Robert Byrne's have several DVD's out, and I find them highly beneficial as well, in most instances more beneficial than the books because you can pause, rewind, and completely visualize what he is saying. I would recommend any Robert Byrne's products!

There must be some lame-ass case where blood chokes are deadly force now. If I go to the ground in a defense situation I will go for more painful, more permanent joint locks instead.

I know the thread has moved on to LEO defensive tactics, but I thought it might be worth mentioning that Matt Larsen is on the cover of the September 2010 Black Belt Magazine.

It gets better... The magazine also has a brief profile of MCMAP "founder" Cardo Urso, the senior NCO there at the beginning. It turns out he retired and now runs an MMA school! I did not know that.

Positional asphyxia and blood chokes are two different animals and I don't think that they should not be compared. Being in a fight, potentially for your life and knowing that there is at least "1" gun in whatever fight your in brings a different aspect to "street fighting". Almost always having to be "reactive" means a lot of times your starting behind the power curve. Your rolling around, getting scraped up, wearing all kinds of gear (which can lead to injuries) maybe being outnumbered, maybe be in traffic, or a confined space. Bottem line, get the fight over with fast. Often times a RNC is in my humble opinion is a way to go. If I start punching someone, what if I break my hand? Of course im going to use my strong hand, which is my gun hand, so now I have a broken hand and the fight turns deadly...and again im behind the power curve. Obviously we can't haphazordly apply RNC's to everyone ("Hey sir...that a fine looking donut ya got there...RNC!!!!!!") It takes training, and there is a time to use it (just like all weapons, gun, pepper, taser, words) but I think we should be allowed to use it on a lower level of force. Anyway, just my thoughts on it. By the way I heard Matt larson is a BB in BJJ as well as the creator of the MACP.

Can't the derail about mental health care be given it's own thread? I really like the original thread as it was.

It's already been deemed a "scandal." Journalists and broadcasters are chafing over news that the Federal Communications Commission had developed plans to monitor the nation's newsrooms, as outlined in a federal initiative with this brusque title: "Multi-Market Study of Critical Information Needs." It is full of fancy-worded stuff like a "media market census," a study of "community ecology," and intentions to gauge if the "philosophy" of a news organization dovetails into the "critical information needs" of the local citizenry.
The news itself has drawn a wide cross-section of snarling press. Among the current headlines: "Is Obama trying to kill a free press?" (Fox News) "FCC looking to insert government officers to monitor newsrooms" (PJ Media), "Why would the FCC ask newsrooms about their story selection process?" (Reason), "FCC: No intention to muzzle the press" (The Hill), "Echoes of the IRS in the FCC snooping scandal" (National Review Online).
"Since when is a station's philosophy or its inter-office disputes any of the federal government's business? For that matter, how is the federal government qualified to determine what a citizen "needs" to know? Are citizens not qualified to make that determination themselves?" asks David French, senior counsel at the American Center for Law and Justice.
SEE ALSO: FCC media diversity survey sparks an uproar
He is among the first to wonder if the FCC initiative is on par with an IRS focus on conservative tea party groups last year. Mr. French points out a few parallels, pondering the possibilities for his organization, as well as in a National Review op-ed.
"The IRS targeting scandal is of course multi-faceted, but one of its key elements was the use of comprehensive IRS questionnaires to determine everything from tea-party donor and member lists to the actions and activities of family members and even identifying 'persons or entities with which you maintain a close relationship.' In other words, the Obama administration IRS was abusing its regulatory authority to essentially discern the inner workings of an entire political and cultural movement," Mr. French wrote.
"The Obama governing philosophy combines the regulatory state with an intolerance of dissent. Taken together, this means an extreme level of government intrusion into private activity," he added.
"Even the concept of a study like this is enough to chill every journalist and every station which prides itself on journalistic independence," says Mike Cavender, executive director of the Radio Television Digital News Association.
Somebody's going to make a little cash off the fact that Americans don't understand Obamacare, its enrollment procedures or its greater societal implications. This phenomenon has not gone unnoticed by the marketing and public relations crowd.
Here comes the "Future of Health Communications Summit," priced at $175 a person in New York City next week, and sponsored by the Business Development Institute, a public relations group which also cited a recent Wall Street Journal/NBC poll revealing that 70 percent of consumers are confused about the Affordable Care Act.
"This knowledge gap presents a sterling opportunity for pharmaceutical firms, hospital groups, insurers, medical device companies and agencies to educate and inform their patients and employees," the organizers say.
They have lined up speakers from Johns Hopkins Medicine, major PR firm Makovsky, pharmacutical giant Pfizer and the Public Health Association of New York, among others, all of them ready to "discuss opportunities for patient-centric communications."
Maybe somebody at the White House should spring for a ticket and attend.
During her time as a 2012 presidential hopeful, Rep. Michele Bachmann held her own during 20 Republican candidate debates, despite frequent abuse by the mainstream media. As the Minnesota lawmaker prepares to leave office, she has issued a warning of sorts about another potential White House hopeful. And that would be Hillary Clinton, who she calls "the godmother of Obamacare" in a fair-minded interview with syndicated columnist Cal Thomas.

- Along with its Q3 report, Changyou (NASDAQ:CYOU) announces CEO Tao Wang has resigned for "personal reasons." SOHU CFO Carol Yu and Changoyu president Dewen Chen will serve as co-CEOs.
- The news comes as both Changyou and parent Sohu post mixed Q3 results (EPS beats and revenue misses) and offer light Q4 sales guidance. Sohu expects Q4 revenue of $442M-$462M, mostly below a $461.1M consensus. Changyou expects Q4 revenue of $188M-$198M, below a $199.2M consensus.
- Changyou's Q3 revenue (42% of Sohu's revenue) fell 1% Y/Y due to a 7% drop in online game revenue to $150.3M; Changyou faces off against Tencent, Perfect World, Shanda, and a slew of other firms in a very competitive Chinese online gaming market.
- Average monthly active accounts for Changyou's games amounted to 29M, +21% Q/Q and -6% Y/Y. Average monthly accounts for platform channels totaled 275M, +9% Q/Q and +178% Y/Y.
- Sohu's Sogou search unit continued to perform well: Sales rose 17% Q/Q and 86% Y/Y to $106M. Meanwhile, Sohu's brand ad sales grew 12% Q/Q and 19% Y/Y to $106M.
- Sohu's gross margin was 58%, flat Q/Q and down from 66% a year ago. Opex was $275M, +3% Q/Q and +47% Y/Y.
- Sohu: Q3 results, PR. Changyou: Q3 results, PR.

- On a day when the Nasdaq is down 1.8% and the S&P 2.2%, many Chinese Internet stocks are rallying. China's lowest CPI print in five years - it helped the Shanghai exchange rise 0.7% overnight - could be playing a role.
- Baidu (BIDU +1.1%), Sohu (SOHU +2.8%), Youku (YOKU +4.9%), Vipshop (VIPS +3%), and Weibo (WB +2.9%) are among the standouts. Others: CMGE +6.1%. MOBI +4.1%. NTES +3.5%. DANG +2.3%. SFUN +1.7%. CCIH +1.7%. BITA +1.5%.

- Netflix CCO Ted Sarandos took some well-aimed potshots at the movie exhibitor model.

- Earlier today, Lion's Gate talked about big brands getting into the streaming game, while HBO created a buzz with the announcement it will offer a stand-alone service next year.

- Maybe looking to raise cash with which to buy Alibaba (Pending:BABA) this week, investors are dumping a wide swath of other Chinese internet names.
- Qihoo (QIHU -2.6%), Sohu.com (SOHU -5.3%), Baidu (BIDU -3.8%), Sina (SINA -4.9%), Renren (RENN -4%), Weibo (WB -11.3%), YY (YY -7.3%).
- Previously: Alibaba to boost IPO size
Sep. 10, 2014, 5:35 PM
Aug. 22, 2014, 7:03 PM
- Ahead of Qihoo's (NYSE:QIHU) Q2 report (due Monday morning), CNZZ estimates Qihoo now has 30.2% of the Chinese search market in terms of page views. That's up sharply from the 16.3% it had a year ago, and suggests Qihoo may have already reached its 30% year-end target.
- Baidu's (NASDAQ:BIDU) share is pegged at 54.5%, down from 67.7% a year ago. Sohu's (NASDAQ:SOHU) Sogou unit is assigned a 12.8% share, up from 9.7% a year ago.
- Two caveats: 1) iResearch has provided higher search share figures for Baidu, and lower ones for Qihoo, than CNZZ. The firm has argued CNZZ's figures paint an incomplete picture due to a heavy reliance on small/medium-sized sites for data. 2) Qihoo's mobile search position is weaker than its PC search position. Baidu, meanwhile, just topped 500M monthly mobile search users.
Jul. 28, 2014, 2:51 PM
- Sohu (SOHU +1%) expects Q3 revenue of $427M-$442M and EPS of -$0.75 to -$0.85 vs. a consensus of $451.4M and -$0.97. Subsidiary Changyou (CYOU +0.9%) expects Q3 revenue of $186M-$192M and EPS of -$0.11 to $0.00 vs. a consensus of $200.1M and -$0.04.
- While respectively up 275% and 86% Y/Y, Changyou's sales/marketing and R&D spend fell 14% and 30% Q/Q in Q2 to $69.4M and $49M. That helped both Changyou and Sohu beat EPS estimates in spite of revenue misses. Sohu's total opex fell 8% Q/Q and rose 67% Y/Y to $267M.
- Changyou notes it "scaled back its advertising and promotion of its PC-based and mobile-based software applications" in Q2. The R&D spend decline is attributed to lower expenses related to employee incentive plans.
- Each company saw declining gross margins: Changyou's GM fell to 76% from 78% in Q1 and 83% a year ago, and Sohu's fell to 58% from 62% in Q1 and 66% a year ago. In addition to Changyou, Sohu's GM was dinged by lower advertising margins caused by higher content/bandwidth costs.
- While Changyou's gaming revenue fell 9% Y/Y to $154M, Sohu's search/other revenue grew 84% Y/Y to $85M, and its brand ad revenue grew 33% Y/Y to $133M.
- Revenue related to the Sogou search engine (largely search/other) rose 30% Q/Q and 82% Y/Y to $91M. Average monthly active accounts for Changyou's games fell 14% Q/Q and 33% Y/Y to 24M. Changyou's platform channel accounts grew 5% Q/Q and 196% Y/Y to 252M.
- Q2 results: Sohu, Changyou
Jul. 28, 2014, 2:39 AM
- Sohu.com (NASDAQ:SOHU): Q2 EPS of -$0.88 beats by $0.41.
- Revenue of $400M (+18.0% Y/Y) misses by $8.21M.
- Press Release
Jul. 27, 2014, 5:30 PM
Jul. 25, 2014, 5:32 PM
- Goldman has raised its 2014-2016 Baidu (BIDU +10.9%) EPS estimates by 17%-23% following its sizable Q2 EPS beat and above-consensus Q3 guidance, and hiked its target by $35 to $260. BofA/Merrill, Deutsche, and Piper have also raised their Baidu PTs.
- Goldman was pleased with several datapoints provided in the Q2 report and CC (transcript). Among them: 1) Baidu topped 500M mobile search monthly active users (MAUs) in June. 2) Maps MAUs have passed 200M. 3) Baidu's app distribution platforms (led by 91 Wireless) averaged 130M downloads/day in Q2. 4) The Nuomi daily deals unit (acquired from Renren) has seen its user base double since Q4.
- BofA/Merrill observes Baidu's aggressive spending growth is now being fueled more by hiring than by marketing spend, something it expects will translate into future leverage. Marketing spend fell to 11.5% of revenue from 14.1% in Q1, while R&D grew to 14.6% from 13.6%.
- Baidu made fresh highs today, and provided a lift to rivals Qihoo (QIHU +3.7%) and Sohu (SOHU +2.2%) along the way.
Jul. 18, 2014, 11:05 AM
- Rucia Ren, formerly a senior finance manager at Baidu, has been named Changyou's (CYOU -1.5%) new acting CFO.
- Ren replaces Erin Sheng, who has been serving as interim CFO since former CFO Alex Ho left Changyou earlier this year to start his own company.
- Changyou, which accounts for nearly half of Sohu's (SOHU -0.1%) sales, posted a sizable Q1 loss due to heavy marketing/promotional spend for its games. More losses are expected for Q2.
May 12, 2014, 2:03 PM
- Changyou (CYOU +3.9%) "plans to transfer or lay off nearly 120 employees" in its PC gaming unit, Marbridge Consulting reports. The employees will reportedly be either laid off or transferred to Changyou's mobile gaming unit.
- The report comes after the Sohu (SOHU +3%) subsidiary reported a 2% Y/Y drop in online gaming revenue (accounted for 45% of Sohu's total revenue), and also provided soft Q2 guidance caused in part by heavy spending. Like some peers, Changyou has been struggling to deal with mobile cannibalization and intense competition - Tencent remains an industry colossus.
Apr. 28, 2014, 10:17 AM
- Sohu (SOHU -4.8%) missed Q1 estimates and provided light Q2 guidance. Meanwhile, as part of a recent crackdown, the Chinese government has pulled The Big Bang Theory and other popular U.S. shows from sites such as Sohu.com, Youku.com (YOKU -4.4%), Baidu's (BIDU -5%) iQiyi, and Tencent Video (TCEHY -2.8%). Time observes The Big Bang Theory has produced 1.3B video views since launching on Sohu TV in '09.
- The news is overshadowing a $1.22B investment in Youku by Alibaba (ABABA) and an affiliated P-E firm, and a WSJ report stating Alibaba is forming a mobile search JV with leading mobile browser firm UCWeb (once targeted by Baidu).
- The deals are the latest in a long line of investments and partnerships struck by Alibaba, Tencent, and Baidu, as each firm tries to build a Web/mobile empire covering over a dozen valuable markets.
- Is Qihoo (QIHU -0.8%) next in line to make a deal? With a $21.6B market cap, the security app/browser/search provider and Baidu rival is the biggest Chinese Internet company to remain independent of the big-3. Qihoo was reported in January to be talking with Alibaba.
- Other decliners: NQ -6.5%. VIPS -5.2%. WB -4.2%. WBAI -3%. LONG -4.5%. QUNR -2.4%.
