Yosemite national park
... bus, it started to rain! Liam and I also had give away our umbrella just the day before. We had ponchos in our backpack, but before it started, it stopped. Typical California weather. From here we went further into the valley floor and our bus let us off near the lodge. From here we visited some shops, and went to see the Yosemite falls, these were flowing. We also ate our sandwiches in a picturesque spot in the park. Some squirrels were chasing each ...

So out of the world, which is why it is so fascinating. The book leaves you in a trance at the end, forcing you to re-read portions of the book.
First off, this has some graphic sex scenes that are incestuous in nature. So proceed at your own risk. An interesting tale of 2 men, one old, one young, who both have to find something for their lives to be truly fulfilled. After reading 1Q84, I was pretty ready for Murakami's style, so the almost dreamlike pace didn't unsettle me. The writing is fantastic and in many ways I did love the story. The pacing, the back and forth of scenes between the 2 protagonists, the surreal atmosphere, the funny little interjections, the ordinary just slightly turned 20degrees of kilter, it all made for a fantastic read. But, incest? I felt so dirty after reading the scenes that I wish I could have taken them out of the story. Other than that, this would have been a 5star. Now I am sad. "
I can't quite put into words the way reading Haruki Murakami's words makes me feel. Though not as good as The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, I'm still left with the feeling that this book has in some way changed my life. And that's rare. There's just something so completely intriguing and captivating in his words. This novel left my head spinning and me wanting more.
Giving this book a three-star rating seems unjust. When reading it, I found much I liked about the work, yet having had a few days to digest it, find myself struggling to justify just exactly what I found so appealing.
To deal first of all with the good, Kafka on the Shore is on a basic level a decent page-turner. Two related stories are interwoven, chapter for chapter, and while they don't necessarily come together in the end, the narrative is nicely paced and suitably eventful to keep the reader engaged. There are various themes on display, from the Oedipal tragedy and the journey to adulthood, together with more complex issues dealing with time and reality, and plenty of the metaphorical and surreal elements to spice things up. If you aren't enamoured by 'magic realism' this will no doubt be an instant turn-off.
As for the prose, which some other reviewers have complained about as stilted or to be blamed on the translation, I found the book to be for the most part very pleasantly written. It must be said that the translation is American, which for a British reader did jar on occasion. There were also moments when the dialogue came across as particularly unrealistic and forced, but this probably has more to do with Murakami squeezing in a lot of metaphysical/philosophical discussion. This is a novel in which 15-year-olds can discuss interpretations of Schubert, and pick up books on Napoleon's Russian campaign on a whim. It won't appeal to everyone, but the discussions and ideas floating around in the book make for interesting intervals in the action.
Unfortunately, having finished the novel I found my admiration began to wane. As others have pointed out, there is no 'satisfactory' conclusion, which on its own is no problem, rather that none of the various threads of the novel have any answers. Thinking back, I find that what I read as interesting and titillating discussions or metaphorical events simply turned into question marks hanging over the book's closed cover. The author himself suggests readers should use the book's riddles to find their own solutions, and that multiple readings are recommended, but for that I have neither the time nor the inclination.
To my mind, Kafka on the Shore is a perfectly interesting diversion, and one which works on some levels as an engaging story. But where it tries to become more deeply meaningful, it offers only disconnected ideas that the reader has to piece together if he is to see any of the picture. This was my first Murakami, and whilst the book hasn't made me a fan, it also hasn't put me off picking up another of his novels should the opportunity arise. But for the sour aftertaste, it even deserves an extra star, or the sheer joyful way in which he has written a modern day fairy tale cum parable.
The weird, stately urgency of Murakami's novels comes from their preoccupation with . . . internal problems; you can imagine each as a drama acted out within a single psyche. In each, a self lies in pieces and must be put back together; a life that is stalled must be kick-started and relaunched into the bruising but necessary process of change. Reconciling us to that necessity is something stories have done for humanity since time immemorial. Dreams do it, too. But while anyone can tell a story that resembles a dream, it's the rare artist, like this one, who can make us feel that we are dreaming it ourselves.
Maar net zoals in de rest van Murakami's omvangrijke oeuvre blijft het niet bij het wegloop-realisme van de hoofdpersoon. Onverklaarbare wendingen, bovennatuurlijke verschijnselen, irreële toevalligheden en onwaarschijnlijke personages roepen bij de nuchtere lezer al snel de vraag op waarom hij in godsnaam maar blijft dóórlezen.
Kafka Tamura se va de casa el día en que cumple quince años. La razón, si es que la hay, son las malas relaciones con su padre, un escultor famoso convencido de que su hijo habrá de repetir el aciago sino del Edipo de la tragedia clásica, y la sensación de vacío producida por la ausencia de su madre y su hermana, a quienes apenas recuerda porque también se marcharon de casa cuando era muy pequeño. El azar, o el destino, le llevarán al sur del país, a Takamatsu, donde encontrará refugio en una peculiar biblioteca y conocerá a una misteriosa mujer mayor, tan mayor que podría ser su madre, llamada Saeki. Si sobre la vida de Kafka se cierne la tragedia –en el sentido clásico–, sobre la de Satoru Nakata ya se ha abatido –en el sentido real–: de niño, durante la segunda guerra mundial, sufrió un extraño accidente que lo marcaría de por vida. En una excursión escolar por el bosque, él y sus compañeros cayeron en coma; pero sólo Nakata salió con secuelas, sumido en una especie de olvido de sí, con dificultades para expresarse y comunicarse... salvo con los gatos. A los sesenta años, pobre y solitario, abandona Tokio tras un oscuro incidente y emprende un viaje que le llevará a la biblioteca de Takamatsu. Vidas y destinos se van entretejiendo en un curso inexorable que no atiende a razones ni voluntades. Pero a veces hasta los oráculos se equivocan.
"Et stort verk, men likevel lekende lett lesning."

With Kafka on the Shore, Haruki Murakami gives us a novel every bit as ambitious and expansive as The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, which has been acclaimed both here and around the world for its uncommon ambition and achievement, and whose still-growing popularity suggests that it will be read and admired for decades to come. This magnificent new novel has a similarly extraordinary scope and the same capacity to amaze, entertain, and bewitch the reader. A tour de force of metaphysical reality, it is powered by two remarkable characters: a teenage boy, Kafka Tamura, who runs away from home either to escape a gruesome oedipal prophecy or to search for his long-missing mother and sister; and an aging simpleton called Nakata, who never recovered from a wartime affliction and now is drawn toward Kafka for reasons that, like the most basic activities of daily life, he cannot fathom. Their odyssey, as mysterious to them as it is to us, is enriched throughout by vivid accomplices and mesmerizing events. Cats and people carry on conversations, a ghostlike pimp employs a Hegel-quoting prostitute, a forest harbors soldiers apparently unaged since World War II, and rainstorms of fish (and worse) fall from the sky. There is a brutal murder, with the identity of both victim and perpetrator a riddle-yet this, along with everything else, is eventually answered, just as the entwined destinies of Kafka and Nakata are gradually revealed, with one escaping his fate entirely and the other given a fresh start on his own. Extravagant in its accomplishment, Kafka on the Shore displays one of the world's truly great storytellers at the height of his powers.… (more)

:-) Melody...thought it just might be that child.
Oddly enough, the old Time-Life Gardening Encyclopedia I have has one
very nice image where someone used that as a groundcover - so it has
been done. Other plants will grow through it, as well, so if you pick
your plants, you could use it as a groundcover, but you'd have to
watch it as it would not be satisfied to stay where you want it.
it's actually a fairly handsome plant if it just did not have such a
desire for world domination. I must pull bushels of it every year.
Problem is that it not only spreads over ground, it seeds around and
it will come back from roots left in the soil as well. It takes
incredible persistence to rid an area of it, but it can be done a bit
at a time.
You can cover it with black plastic, which will kill it off in a
season, but you have to keep an eye on it so it doesn't sneak out the
edges on you. And even after you've killed off a huge swath of it,
the seed still persists so you have to keep after the area and make
sure to pull all seedlings the moment they germinate. After 2 or 3
years of this, you can pretty well win the battle.
There is a variegated form on the market; a really pretty thing, but
like the marvelous variegated form of poke weed, I would not have it
in the garden no matter how lovely it is....let alone pay money for
It does make good compost if you get it in the middle of the heap so
the heat kills it; on the edges of the heap, it just flourishes!

«Disciples of the 36th Chamber is kung fu action at its finest. The cast are all in top form with Hsiao Ho smoking the competition and Gordon Liu showing that he still had plenty of precision moves to dole out. Usual Shaw production standards give everything a rich, almost comic book look that only enhances the experience.»

Yes sir, they're all cut and going through assembly right now. Saw it with my own eyes
They're scheduled to go to finishing/washing next week and ship shortly after that. Thanks again to everyone for their patience on this! As some other guys have mentioned, the weight is actually on the heavier side, so these are a perfect early Fall piece. You guys will get a ton of wear out of them this season.
Does this mean we're looking at a ship date around the 3rd week of September?post #32885 of 593728/30/14 at 1:33ampost #32886 of 593728/30/14 at 4:57ampost #32887 of 593728/30/14 at 5:05ampost #32888 of 593728/30/14 at 5:53ampost #32889 of 593728/30/14 at 8:52am

I love the Olmsted. I am not a fan of the Van last and have been clamoring for a ranger moc on Barrie for quite some time. Any chance of expanding that style? Here are two makeups I would love
- #8 shell cordovan w/ brass eyelets, flat welt, antique edge trim and double oiled waterloc sole
- Brown CXL w/ brass eyelets, reverse welt, antique or natural edge trim and commando sole (very similar to your Innsbruck but in shoe form)
Glad that you like it! We're pretty freaking thrilled at how the Olmsted came out. I love both of these ideas, and I was thinking along the same lines. It's tempting to subject every popular makeup to "Innsbrucking."
We'll definitely run a new round of Alden preorders next month, so I'll build at least the CXL variant out for guys to order and reserve. Got some other new makeups to offer as well.Quote:Originally Posted by bkotsko

I know Mike had one a while back similar, but I missed out.

The only thing I don't like about the Rancourt shell belt is it is narrow (1.25"), so it feels out of place casually.
I have a black CXL belt on from Rancourt.
I still may have to get the blue shell belt.
My CXL belts are officially en-route and will be delivered next Friday. We've got Black, Brown (like the Indy 403/Innsbruck), Natural, and Navy. The navy CXL isn't an exact match to navy shell, but it's pretty complimentary. We're getting good stock across all sizes.
And good lord at how many snuff belts have sold in the past two days! Thanks to everyone who picked it up - you won't be disappointed! I'm putting in a reorder of those and I'm going to look into doing more colors in that slightly tougher shape.Quote:Originally Posted by Duke Silver
How would you compare the Olmsted to the PTB? Was planning on picking up a pair of the PTB's, but now I'm torn between them and the Olmsted. Looking at the pictures, it strikes me that maybe the Olmsted is going to work better w/ jeans and casual chinos, but maybe not as well w/ the PTB w/ dressier trousers. Would you say that's a fair assessment?
Yup, I'd say that you're correct.
The CXL PTB is one of the most versatile shoes around. I was pushing for that to be a stock item forever. It goes with any casual look but you can also pair it with a textured dress trouser or suit (think tweed, flannel, moleskin, etc).
The Olmsted isn't quite as versatile, but it kicks serious ass. I'll see if I can shoot a fit photo, but it looks incredibly boss with jeans and it really stands out.
Get the Olmsted and you won't regret it. The CXL PTB is a stock item, so you can always buy that later on. The Olmsted will probably be sold out in the next week or so, and we'd be about 8 months away from a restock.Quote:
Thank you sir!Quote:
My pleasure as always, and thanks for the kind words!Quote:
We should have them in-house and ready to ship to you buy that date at the very latest. I'm breaking chops to have them ship from LA next week.Quote:
I'd say to buy TTS or size down if you're in between. It runs bigger than most things that we make. It's really a great jacket, and it's very practical. I've tried to do raincoats a few times, and it's just not something that our customers are into - hence the psycho markdown price. But that shouldn't reflect on the quality of the item. It's made in Italy by Paul Stuart's primary outerwear factory, and it's really top notch.post #32890 of 593728/30/14 at 11:25am
Has anyone taken a Rivet chino and trimmed it up?
It has the perfect casual silhouette for me; I think going forward, I will just grab Rivets.
But for a dressier look—and I say this having taken many measurements across my best fitting trousers—I'm thinking of taking the Rivet in about 0.5" (thigh/knee/hem). Has anyone done something like that? How did it turn out?
I think @rydenfan
mentioned doing something like this.
I hope you bring back more sanded canvas fabric and colors. Really loving the indigo.
Random: how stiff is the duck canvas? I have 12 oz duck canvas I got from another shop and it just won't break in; stiff as a board.post #32891 of 593728/30/14 at 11:43am

Question to those who's familiar with the situation:
I paid for the item via Paypal which is linked directly to my bank account. The amount has already been withdrawn from my account. I guess the refunded amount will show in my paypal account some time next week, just got the email today. When I transfer the fund back into my bank account, will I get hit with the fee or will I be able to transfer the whole amount back?
Many thanks.Return HomeBack to Forum: Streetwear and Denim

GM has invested $269.4 million in the plant since 2010.
Investments include:
- $10 million (2010) – camshafts and connecting rods – Chevy Volt program
- $32 million (2010) – next generation small block engine
- $20 million (2010) – produce camshafts for the next generation Ecotec engine
- $12.7 million (2010) – support engine production for the Chevrolet Volt, Chevrolet Cruze and a new Chevrolet small car

Trendy Austin area south of Congress Avenue.

Visited on a Sunday afternoon, the place was very busy. Interesting shops & plenty of street musicians.
Hard to get back & forth from one side to the other. Could benefit from a more pedestrian friendly streetscape.
This is an area of Austin that has trendy shops, artisan crafts,art galleries and good restaurants. Add to your Austin itinerary you won't be disappointed. Hotel San Jose is a great place to stay as well as South Congress Hotel

It's an area of South Congress with shops & trendy restaurants. You can just walk up on side and down the other. There are also to great music venues: The Continental Club and C-Boys.
Like I said in my other review of this 'district' on South Congress, we were a bit disappointed. We found South First more interesting & it's parallel to South Congress.
We spent an hour strolling the area. There are lots of fun shops, restaurants and street performers. Very casual and friendly area with lots of kids, dogs and everybody else.
Strolled up and down South Congress on a lovely, sunny afternoon in Austin and couldn't have enjoyed it more! Interesting shops, great restaurants and bars. Ate on South Congress lots - Torchey's Tacos, Magnolia and South Congress Cafe. All were wonderful!
We enjoy our stroll up and down Congress stopping in at the many new and eclectic shops. When they say keep Austin weird, they are talking about this place. There are many good restaurants on this street for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
best place to park a car?

This week, your photographs will last 1000x as long. You will photograph one entire second of time. The ChallengeCapture a photo with the shutter speed of 1 second. No faster or slower.The Technique1-second exposures are interesting because it opens up options for both daytime and nighttime submissions (though, during the day, you may want to use a neutral density filter - a simple filter that just cuts down on overall light). Advertisement Advertisement The biggest, most important point - you'll need to secure your camera on a tripod or a ledge. (Though...see the link below on this point.) The other? Whenever you're taking long exposure shots, it's always good to keep your ISO low to cut down on the noise. In other words, your only remaining control over exposure (since ISO and shutter speed are sort of locked) is aperture.For those who want some inspiration, here's a really nice rundown of some different styles of long exposures (not rivers or car trails). If you're a run and gun style photographer, this may be the link for you.The ExampleOur lead shot is by and.korn on flickr. Notice how water's texture softens during the long exposure, but the still rock in the front right of the shot retains 100% of its crispness.The Rules1. Submissions need to be your own. 2. Photos must be taken since this contest was announced (read more on that above). 3. Explain, briefly, the equipment, settings, technique and story behind shot. 4. Email submissions to email@example.com, not me. 5. Include 970px wide image (200KB or less) AND a 2560x1600 sized in email. I know that your photo may not fall into those exact high rez dimensions, so whatever native resolution you're using is fine. 6. One submission per person. 7. Use the proper SUBJECT line in your email (more info on that below) 8. You agree to the Standard Contest Rules - though we DO accept non-US resident submissions. 9. If the image contains any material or elements that are not owned by you and/or which are subject to the rights of third parties, and/or if any persons appear in the image, you are responsible for obtaining, prior to submission of the photograph, any and all releases and consents necessary to permit the exhibition and use of the image in the manner set forth in these rules without additional compensation. If any person appearing in any image is under the age of majority in their state/province/territory of residence the signature of a parent or legal guardian is required on each release. Sponsored Send your best photo by Monday, May 30th at 8AM Eastern to firstname.lastname@example.com with "One Second" in the subject line. Save your files as JPGs, and use a FirstnameLastnameSecond.jpg (970px wide) and FirstnameLastnameSecondWallpaper.jpg (2560px wide) naming conventions. Include your shooting summary (camera, lens, ISO, etc) in the body of the email along with a story of the shot in a few sentences. And don't skip this story part because it's often the most enjoyable part for us all beyond the shot itself!Mark Wilson is the founder of photography blog Life, Panoramic and Philanthroper, a daily deal site for nonprofits.Reply49 repliesLeave a reply

text: Robert Lockwood, Jr., learned his blues firsthand from an unimpeachable source: the immortal Robert Johnson. Lockwood was capable of conjuring up the bone-chilling Johnson sound whenever he desired, but he was never one to linger in the past for long -- which accounts for the jazzy swing he often brought to the licks he played on his 12-string electric guitar. Born in 1915, Lockwood was one of the last living links to the glorious Johnson legacy. When Lockwood's mother became ... Read more

The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals recently affirmed summary judgment in favor of an employer that was sued by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for religious discrimination. In EEOC v. Thompson Contracting, Grading, Paving, and Utilities, Inc., No. 11-1897, the EEOC sued the company for failing to accommodate a request to not work Saturdays made by an employee who alleged he followed the Hebrew Israelite faith. The United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina ruled the company did not violate its Title VII obligations and granted summary judgment for the employer. The Court of Appeals agreed and affirmed the ruling.
Thompson Contracting provided grading, paving, and utility services for transportation projects in eastern North Carolina. It normally operated Monday through Friday, but it sometimes needed its workers to work Saturdays to make up for weather and other project delays. The company normally had eight vehicles whose drivers required a commercial driver's license, including dump trucks. The company frequently used independent contractor dump trucks for large projects.
Banayah Yisrael was employed as a dump truck driver and objected to working Saturdays because that was his religious Sabbath. Mr. Yisrael was asked to work Saturdays on several occasions. On the first occasion, all of the company's employee dump truck drivers were scheduled to work Saturday, but no independent contractors were used. Mr. Yisrael did not come to work but was not disciplined. Several weeks later, Mr. Yisrael was again instructed to work Saturday, but he refused. On this occasion, all other dump truck driver employees worked Saturday, and the company also used 13 independent contractor drivers. Mr. Yisrael did not come to work, but he was written up for his absence and told the next infraction would result in termination.
On Friday, February 11, 2005, Mr. Yisrael was asked to work the following Saturday. All employee drivers other than Mr. Yisrael worked Saturday, and the company also used 12 independent contractor drivers. Mr. Yisrael failed to show up for work, and, anticipating his firing, filed an EEOC Charge of Discrimination the following Monday. Thompson Contracting terminated his employment for failing to come to work as scheduled. After the conclusion of the EEOC Charge process, the EEOC sued Thompson Contracting for failing to provide a reasonable accommodation for Mr. Yisrael's religious beliefs.
The EEOC proposed three possible accommodations Thompson Contracting could have made. The District Court rejected all three as placing an undue burden on the company, and the Court of Appeals agreed. First, the EEOC argued Thompson Contracting could operate without Yisrael on Saturdays. The court rejected this argument because if Yisrael was not at work the company would be forced to use independent contractors, make other employees do his work, or not have the work done at all. The EEOC next argued Thompson Contracting should have provided substitute drivers to cover for Yisrael's absences. The court held that hiring a pool of substitute drivers or incurring the costs to train existing employees to drive dump trucks was an undue burden. Finally, Thompson Contracting was not required to offer Yisrael a transfer to a different position because it reasonably believed he would refuse any such transfer option.
The EEOC v. Thompson Contracting case is an important win for employers. It clarifies that an employee's right to avoid working on his or her Sabbath is not absolute, and an employer can demand such work when any possible accommodation would pose an undue burden on the employer. The case also provides specific examples of the types of accommodations that may not be reasonable depending on the facts of each case. Employers faced with religious accommodation requests should consult with employment counsel to determine if the requested accommodations present an undue burden and need not be made.

The 1.3-megapixel camera takes photos in five resolutions--from 1,280x960 down to standard VGA. Other camera features include a flash, a self-timer, color effects, white balance, a multishot mode, three quality settings, ISO, spot metering, and a choice of shutter sounds. The camcorder shoots clips with sound in two resolutions (320x240 and 176x144) and offers a choice of editing options similar to the still camera. Clips meant for multimedia messages are capped at 15 seconds; otherwise you should be able to shoot up to an hour of video. The SCH-U620 comes with a respectable 69MB of internal memory, but you're better off investing in a healthy microSD card. Photo and video quality was decent, although we found the colors to be a bit washed out.
The phone book holds as many as 500 entries, with multiple contact information per entry. With Bluetooth support, you can wirelessly connect a PC or other Bluetooth-enabled devices (including stereo headsets) to the phone. We had no problem exchanging contacts between the SCH-U620 and a Samsung SPH-A640. Other features include a vibrate mode, text and multimedia, voice commands and dialing, messaging, a calculator, a calendar, an alarm clock, a world clock , a stop watch, and a notepad. There's also mobile instant messaging, which supports AOL, MSN, and Yahoo services.
We tested the SCH-U620 in the Chicago and San Francisco areas, though the latter currently is not a V Cast Mobile TV market. Call quality was generally good. On our end, voices sounded loud and clear. Similarly, callers had no problems hearing us, even when we were using the phone outdoors, although they could tell we were using a cell phone. Reception remained strong in most areas, and the EV-DO connection was reliable. Downloading a four-minute music video took about two minutes over Verizon's EV-DO network, which isn't bad.
The Mobile TV picture quality is stunning, provided you're able to get a strong signal. Forget the jerky, heavily pixilated video images you've become accustomed to seeing streamed over 3G networks; Mobile TV delivers crystal-clear, full-motion images at 30 frames per second (EV-DO streaming services cap out at 15fps). The display, however, is small for video use, especially when you're staring at it for more than a half hour. We're looking forward to the bigger display on the LG VX9400.
Rather than relying on streaming over a 3G network, Mobile TV uses a portion of the UHF spectrum different from the one used for standard over-the-air broadcasts. As such, the cellular and TV signals are independent from one another, and you don't need any calling bars to watch the TV programming. We saw no lag between audio and video, and the video itself was crisp and vibrant. Some programs displayed a bit more artifacts than others, but nothing like previous mobile video-streaming services. Channel hopping on Mobile TV isn't quite instantaneous, but it's quick enough--there's about a two-second lag between selecting a channel and the feed coming through, about what you get with satellite TV.
Unless you're in a fairly quiet room, you'll want to use a headset to listen to your broadcasts. The speaker isn't quite loud enough to hear clearly in public environments, and the quality is somewhat tinny. Even while riding in the passenger seat of a car with the windows up, we often had to strain to hear everything. Also, we often had trouble getting a TV signal indoors unless standing near a window. Even then, the signal was intermittent, causing frequent hiccups in the broadcast.
The Samsung SCH-U620 has a rated battery life of 3.5 hours of talk time and 10 days standby time. Our tests showed a talk time of 2 hours and 50 minutes instead. According to FCC radiation tests, the SCH-U620 has a digital SAR rating of 0.958 watts per kilogram.

Minimum age is 12. There is also an "all women program."
I am a third generation New Hampshire fly fisherman. In 2012 I formed my own fly fishing business. I achieved International Federation of Fly Fisher (FFF) Certified Casting Instructor status in 2011. I graduated from the University of New Hampshire and did graduate work at California State and Northeastern in special education and administration. Teaching and fishing are two skill sets I bring to my business. But my passion is to share my joy for this sport.

BeschreibungHomoerotic Sensibilities in Late Imperial China is the richest exploration to date of late imperial Chinese literati interest in male love. Employing primary sources such as miscellanies, poetry, fiction and 'flower guides', Wu Cuncun argues that male homoeroticism played a central role in the cultural life of late imperial Chinese literati elites. Countering recent arguments that homosexuality was marginal and disparaged during this period, the book also seeks to trace the relationship of homoeroticism to status and power. In addition to historical portraits and analysis, the book also advances the concept of 'sensibilities' as a method for interpreting the complex range of homoerotic texts produced in late imperial China.

Horsemeat scandal: Welsh government 'failed to promote lamb and beef'
23 May 2013 Last updated at 15:12 BST
The Welsh government has been accused of failing to capitalise on the horsemeat scandal by promoting Welsh beef and lamb.
Prof Terry Marsden, a former government food adviser, says it was a "classic case" of the Welsh government failing to make more out of a commercial opportunity.
The Welsh government says it will review the way it handled the scandal.
Jordan Davies reports.
