Feasts, fêtes and fireworks are the traditional ways to celebrate Bastille Day in France. But before the partying, a brief explanation is in order. Variously called la Fête Nationale or 14 juillet, the holiday is commemorated on July 14, the day that the people of Paris stormed the Bastille prison in 1789 and effectively began the violent overthrow of the monarchy to make way for a republic. So, much like Independence Day in the United States, Bastille Day is a national holiday that marks the beginning of a modern nation.
Traditionally the revelry begins the night before, with elaborate parties and balls. If you are in Paris on the morning of Bastille Day, you will see the world's largest and oldest military procession make its way from the Arc de Triomphe down the Champs-Élysées to the Place de la Concorde. With the President of France at the head of the parade and jets flying overhead it is a marvelous spectacle.
Afterward, the President hosts a garden party, but don't expect a personal invitation. Most Parisians, and their countryside counterparts, settle in for an afternoon of outdoor parties, with lots of eating and drinking. As they took to the streets during the revolution, so they take to the streets on Bastille Day, only now it is to share good times.
The day ends in a spectacular fireworks display, with the Eiffel Tower serving as a backdrop, though the colorful explosions are quite common across the country in smaller towns and cities as well.
Petit Dejeuner
Wherever you are celebrating, start your Bastille Day right with a French-style breakfast. Thin and delicate crêpes make the perfect choice; you can stuff them with mushrooms and bacon if you are the savory sort, or if you have a sweet tooth, choose fruits or chocolate and top with whipped cream. Did you know the ham and cheese sandwich was first made in France? A hot croque monsieur makes a lovely breakfast or brunch. Delicious truffle butter takes toast from blah to bourgeios (don't worry, they were from the class called the Third Estate, and were actually part of the revolution).
Let them eat…pâté
By afternoon, après the parade in Paris, or wherever you are in the world, a simple picnic with a French accent is the perfect way to mark the occasion. This is the time for a fresh baguette, bottle of wine, a wheel of cheese and some charcuterie. If you are feeling extravagant, and don't have a ball to attend, make a quiche the night before, chill it and pack it up for the picnic basket. While there is no traditional food associated with Bastille Day, many choose to eat peasant food in a nod to the proletariat nature of the uprising.
Street parties often feature outdoor grills, and mounds of lamb merguez sausage, which is the national equivalent of the hot dog in the United States. The French have made the spicy merguez sausage which originated in North Africa their own. It is grilled, tucked into a baguette, slathered with Dijon mustard and often topped with a helping of french fries. This sandwich is considered by many to be de rigueur at any Bastille Day party.
Happy Bastille Day! Bonne fête! Joyeux Quatorze Juillet!

Rock icon Jimi Hendrix's early recordings as a member of Curtis Knight and the Squires is set for a proper release after years of legal roadblocks.
The 88 studio recordings Hendrix made as a session guitarist for the R&B group between 1965 and 1967 finally belong to his family's music company, Experience Hendrix Llc.
The deal marks the end of the long battle the Hendrix estate had with music producer Ed Chalpin, who originally recorded the tracks.
Chalpin initially signed Hendrix and Knight to a three-year contract with his company Ppx International for just $1 and a one per cent royalty rate.
Just before Hendrix went out to pursue a solo career, his manager Chas Chandler bought out every contract Hendrix had previously signed, with the exception of Ppx.
After Hendrix became a success, Chalpin and Ppx released a number of Knight's records to make it look like Hendrix was a key member of the band.
In 2001, executives at Experience Hendrix Llc won a lawsuit over Chalpin and Ppx, enforcing a 1973 consent decree to limit the producer's rights in Hendrix records to 33 masters. In 2006, Experience Hendrix Llc bosses also secured a court order against Chalpin.
Now, the musician's tracks with Knight will be remastered and issued over the next three years through Sony Music's catalogue division, Legacy Recordings.

Losing a two-time state champion diver figured to have quite an effect on the Conifer boys swim team.
Fortunately for the Lobos, and unfortunately for the teams they competed against, the lack of a diver on this year's squad only helped to fortify the rest of the ranks.
Propelled by a strong showing from Clear Creek junior, Christian Treat, Conifer placed fourth at the Class 4A State Swimming Championships, held over the weekend in Fort Collins.

NL CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES: GIANTS v PHILLIES
October 20, 2010
Charlie Manuel
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: Game Four
Giants – 6
Phillies - 5
THE MODERATOR: Questions for Charlie Manuel.
Q. When did you decide to use Roy Oswalt and what went into that decision?
CHARLIE MANUEL: Decided to use him in the eighth inning, about in the eighth inning. He already hit it -- told Dubee that he could go. He said he wanted to be in there. He said he'd be glad to go.
Q. Considering the fact that you were willing to use Oswalt and you had such a short lease for Blanton a lot of people would ask why not pitch Halladay then today?
CHARLIE MANUEL: I think I've answered that, haven't I? I think I answered it for how many days now? I mean, we pitched him today. We pitched Blanton. And actually we had a chance to win the game. We didn't win the game. Blanton had a lead when he left.
Q. What were you more, giving up the lead or the couple opportunities that you missed there in the fourth inning and then in the eighth inning?
CHARLIE MANUEL: When we took the lead, we had momentum on our side and all of a sudden we go back out there and they take it right back away from us. And we couldn't hold them in the sixth inning kind of got away from us.
I felt like walks did us in in the fifth and sixth inning, lead-off walks. Definitely opened the door for the Giants.
Q. Sounds like Roy volunteered himself into the game. Would you have asked him -- did you ask him? Did you talk to him about that?
CHARLIE MANUEL: No, I didn't ask him. I think Dubee was the one that was talking to him. Dubee told me.
Q. And so Roy -- it was Roy's idea to volunteer himself into the game.
CHARLIE MANUEL: You better go talk to Dubee about that. Dubee told me: Oswalt could go. And I said fine, that's good.
Q. Couple of quick questions. How good a young player is Posey?
CHARLIE MANUEL: Posey is good. He had a tremendous at-bat there. His at-bat, he really bared down and he ended up with a good at-bat. I look at it like they found a way. We were there and we had a chance to win the game. We had the lead at one time. Like I said, we let it slip away. When we tied the game back up, we had a guy on second and we couldn't move him.
Then, of course, they got the big hit. I mean, Uribe, he did a good job of hitting the sac fly. I mean, they did a good job. He had a tremendous at-bat.
Q. Secondly, despite it all, you still have Halladay against Lincecum tomorrow, which is a tremendous matchup. And then your other two best pitchers going against their two best pitchers in the last two games if you can get there?
CHARLIE MANUEL: We've got Halladay going tomorrow against Lincecum. And I'd say if we like to play with our backs against the wall, it's there now. I think we're standing right there now. Like I heard somebody -- they were asking me today about that we like to play with our backs to the wall. I think we're going to get a chance.
Q. Did you give any thought at all to in the sixth inning when Sandoval came up to bring up the left-hander and turn him around because he's been struggling from the right side of the plate at all?
CHARLIE MANUEL: When Sandoval was hitting, when Dubee went to the mound, we actually, we had first base open. We were in a tough jam. Guy on third and second and nobody out. And we did not want to throw Sandoval a strike and we can walk him, like you say why didn't you put him on, because we know he'll chase bad balls and we were trying to strike him out on bad balls.
And we definitely needed an out there. But at the same time Durbin got a fastball up. He has to get it higher. Got it up around his neck where he could see it and he tomahawked it.
Q. Just curious, in the eighth inning, when Howard scored after the Werth double, Rollins came up with nobody out and Werth on second. Was it considered there to bunt him over?
CHARLIE MANUEL: Rollins usually pulls the ball. If he hits the ball to the right side of the dime, that's one of his strong points, he's got a short quick swing to the left side that he usually pulls the ball. Not only that, if he pulls the ball, he also has a chance to get a hit or drive the run in. And that's how you play the game. And we do that a lot with Rollins. We let him hit there because that's one of his big strong suits from the left side is pull the ball.
Q. Do you have any concern what he had to do today? He a bullpen session as well, Oswalt, correct? What he had to do today was going to affect him in his next start?
CHARLIE MANUEL: I don't think so. I think that he knows himself a little bit more than I do. And Dubee watches him a lot. He's closer to him than I am. He spends more time with him. At the same time, no, I don't think so.
Q. In that situation, when Francisco went against Romo did you think about Ibanez there?
CHARLIE MANUEL: Sure did.
Q. What was the decision?
CHARLIE MANUEL: That was a choice there. I either let -- if I pinch-hit for Francisco there and they bring in the lefty, which he's going to do, if I don't want Francisco hitting off a lefty, I can send Sweeney up and all of a sudden I don't have a left fielder, I don't have a left fielder left.
But at the same time I kind of like Francisco had two good at-bats and I kind of liked him hitting on Romo we know what he's going to do, throw sliders. I kind of liked him hitting there plus he had a couple of good at-bats during the game.
THE MODERATOR: Thank you.

Simple and effective mounting frame system of R.STAHL
During installation straight mounting surfaces are not always available. Often only tubular structures and concrete mesh is present, which makes it difficult to mount the Exe enclosures directly.
For these applications R.STAHL has a simple mounting frame system in its product range. The stainless steel mounting plates can be directly mounted on a concrete mesh with a 30mm grid with special clamps (1 1/4", 1 1/2"of 2").
In case there are no walls or other mounting options, special consoles are available for floor mounting. The special consoles can be placed near the installation which is a huge advantage.

🔗 don't even add up to the age of one of my daughters.
🔗 He didn't have to have a good story in a court of buttocks to talk to my one
🔗 but a god. Life is cruel. Even when I had. Buttocks like that.
🔗 I didn't have buttocks like that. So.
🔗 It was the other side of the painting like you know what I mean.
🔗 Oh well a bit disappointing to be honest but then it was cold.
🔗 Yes. Disappointing.
🔗 He may have Adela quite OS but he's from size around the front.
🔗 So nothing like nothing like yours no honestly he's so proud of
🔗 it and it's like putting him a Sadie's symbol on a clapped out hundreds seasick.
🔗 Reisa like that when he had to watch.
🔗 Yes I did want to check on the camera school.
🔗 You say probable.
🔗 So that's twenty seven and counting. That's just Maine for you.
🔗 They're not very discerning they're like dogs on heat.
🔗 I mean if you got Bonnie he's got one so far I'm playing the long game.
🔗 I will get you up on how many you want in the event.
🔗 Yet you want to be Bonnie and the only reason.

Helen is a very warm person that you like straight away. She has a very positive attitude. I felt very comfortable and was very happy to leave my children with her. Thank you.
This was the first time we had used a babysitter that was unknown to us so were a little unsure what to expect as were our children. Kerin appeared to win them both round very easily my son in particular saying that it was better than having us home - that's probably the table tennis that she brought! Overall pleased with the service will definitely be requesting Kerin again.
Helen has looked after my children twice now and I have found Helen to be really polite and chatty, great with my daughter who is 9 years old Helen even bought a chinese for her so she definately won my daughter over. Lately Helen sat for my five week old son plus my four year son and fourteen year old and they were all very well behaved for Helen. Well done.

Old Music Tuesday: Paul McCartney's 'Ram'
Shortly after The Beatles broke up and the ugly personal and legal feuds began, Paul and Linda McCartney fled "to the heart of the country." They headed to a farm on the Mull of Kintyre, Scotland. Days were spent shearing sheep, riding horses, drinking whiskey and being a family. They were also creative times — out of this escape, Paul's second post-Beatles album was born. Ram is pure McCartney; there were simple tunes like the "Heart of the Country" and "Ram On" and then those little pocket symphonies like "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey" and "Back Seat of My Car."
I think it's a brilliant record. Right now I'm listening to the remastered edition released last week for the album's 40th anniversary. It has me singing in my head and getting swept away in the best way pop music can. Each song is a small, transporting vacation.
Oh, I think there are flaws: "Eat At Home" feels like a toss away and "Long Haired Lady" is a bigger production than the lyrics call for. But those things happen when any artist works alone. (There's strength in partnership, and though Linda McCartney was a clear collaborator, for her first record she's not a foil, just a friend along for the ride.)
Speaking of partnerships, there are a few jabs at former band-mates. There's the photo of two beetles copulating in the album art. According to the Beatles' friend and business mate, Peter Brown, those two bugs on the record were an expression of how Paul felt the other Beatles were treating him. There's also a jab a John and Yoko in the lyrics to the opening track, "Too Many People." The line goes, "Too many people preaching practices."
And then there was the fallout, Lennon's tit for tat: Not only did Lennon clearly aim his wit at McCartney on the searing "How Do You Sleep," but there was this brilliant bit of humor, a postcard contained in the early pressing of Imagine with a clear spoof of the Ram album art. I even think some of the not-so-positive reviews of Ram at the time had a bit to do with journalists taking sides, choosing favorites after the break up. John and George were certainly more well loved in writing circles. I loved them all, though as every Beatles fan had their Beatle, Paul was mine.
Bitterness aside, this is a sweet album, steeped in storybook tunes of love and whimsy, written in Scotland and recorded in New York with a new band of musicians. I hope it will find some traction with those who may have passed on Ram based on reviews at the time or hearing some of the lesser McCartney work that would to follow in the late '70s. Ram on!

Cheese… large pile of camembert…
That is my first impression….
Oh well, you obviously want more and I am here to provide. I went to see this movie last night, which is the third film in the franchise after Underworld and Underworld Evolution. The film, however, is largely different in several ways.
Firstly, it is a prequel, set in some sort of mythical dark age where vampires rule, human's bring tribute (unaware that the rulers are vampires) and lycans (or werewolves) hunt the night and the ones whose changing can be controlled are slaves to the vampires.
Secondly, Kate Beckinsale is not in the film… ish. Rhona Mitra takes on the female lead, Sonja, and looks awfully like Beckinsale. Beckinsale does appear at the very end of the movie, in a clip from the first film, with a reminder that she was told during that film that Viktor (Bill Nighy) found her reminiscent of his daughter, Sonja, hence why he turned her. Now I have read complaints, Beckinsale's not in it those complainers say. Let us make it clear that when Len Wiseman announced film 2 and 3, which at the time where to be shot back to back, he always said that film 3 would be a prequel and the character Selene wouldn't be in it. Its just that… well that brings us to the third big difference.
Len Wiseman hasn't directed this, it was directed by Patrick Tatopoulos. There is a direction issue that I will go into.
Basic story then. Vampires are fighting Lycans – which are beasts that lose their humanity and can never take human form. However, one Lycan bitch, in captivity, has a child and Viktor goes all soft hearted (which seems out of character) and doesn't kill it – incidentally the vampire elders Amelia and Marcus are both asleep in their coffins. The child, Lucian (played as an adult by Michael Sheen), grows and can control his lycan side – though it is moon tied. Viktor breeds lycan slaves from Lucian's infection – stoping them changing at will by putting inward spiked collars on them.
It is odd that he speaks, when observing the child Lucian, to Sonja – who is a child herself. The hint is that she was human until she was changed when she blossomed into womanhood – Viktor mentions her mother dying when she was born – but it is not clearly explored. Be that as it may Sonja and Lucian become adults, he a privileged slave, who is a blacksmith, and she royalty amongst the vampires. She treats him with scorn, publicly, but sneaks off for naked rendezvous with him – which giving the 18 certificate was depressingly tasteful! He has made a key for his collar and wishes her to run away with him but, removing his collar is a punishable act and defiling a vampire… especially if she were to become pregnant with a hybrid…
It is cheese. We can see this in the dialogue. Nighy and Mitra chew up the clunky dialogue with a seriousness that just makes it laughable, especially as the delivery isn't necessarily that good from Mitra. Unfortunately it does get a bit talky from time to time, which is a shame really as the point of the film is action. Luckily Steven Mackintosh reprises his role as Tannis and brings a fluid natural quality to it that helps off-set the worse excesses and Michael Sheen has returned as Lucian who, like in the first film, is the best thing in the movie (even if he is doing a full on Spartacus at times).
The film, of course, is primarily an action film and there are three big issues here. Firstly it is awfully like Lord of the Rings (in style, not quality – I hasten to add). The vampire armour looks a lot like the elven armour design and the attack of Lycans against the castle wall was so like the Battle of Helms Deep, it was untrue. I thought that as I saw it but perhaps doubted myself. However the two people I went to the cinema with said the same thing, even to the point of wondering whether they had gone mad before saying so. That madness, as it were, stems from the fact that quality wise this is a million miles off. However it underlines that despite a goblet of blood, one bite and some burning in the sun, the vampires may have been anything; their vampiric nature was not overtly explored.
The second issue was inescapable, due to the fact that this was a prequel. The cumulative battle between Lucian and Viktor meant nothing, and had no sense of tension, as we know that they both survive because we saw the first film.
The third and biggest issue, however, was in the direction. Shaky camera work, though not as bad as some recent features, and constant rapid fast cutting do not make for good action sequences and show that the director is either not confident or not very good with action. There are directors out there who are fantastic with action. Far East cinema has spawned more good action directors than you can shake a stick at. One wonders why many films still fail to capitalise on the talent available.
All that said, however, I did enjoy this in a take your brain out popcorn sort of way. I had low expectations going in and so didn't feel they were dashed and it did what it was meant to do - though not what it believed it should do as it took itself altogether too seriously. It is the weakest of the three movies, of that there is no doubt, but I didn't feel I had wasted an evening. Incidentally, it was wonderful to see the trailer for Lesbian Vampire Killers on the big screen – now that looks like fun.
A full review, as always, when the DVD becomes available. The imdb page is here and the official site is here.

First Impressions: Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
Cheese… large pile of camembert…
12 comments:
I really agree about the action. I yearned for even something as simple as clear, vigorous swordplay as demonstrated, what, 60 years ago by Errol and Basil in Robin Hood... or the more recent balletic perfection displayed in such films as Hero or Crouching Tiger. Instead we were assaulted by ambiguous, at best, slashing, and thrashing with one or two Matrixesque somersaults thrown in! Very disappointing from that perspective.
I must also add the observation that costume was very limited, with the high council, Viktor and the entire vampy entourage never changing clothes throughout it seemed, and Rhona only alternated between chain mail and Victorias Secrets, ahem, chain mail?
You call it cheese... you didn't mention stinky... I vote for very ripe cheese!
- Taliesin_ttlg said...
crabstix - to be honest I didn't know that chainmail actually came in body hugging slinky until the movie.
To be fair camembert is a smelly cheese

the vampires are going to Isengard

- S. Roit said...
You're definitely not crazy for thinking Helm's Deep. I haven't seen the flick yet, but in the trailers when I saw the lycans running toward the castle, it was my first impression.
But I do enjoy the first two, and I like Bill an awful lot, so I knew all along I'd be going to see this. Shame about the camera work, though. Reminds me of X-men three, the way you describe it. Switched directors to Ratner, who IS an action type director most of the time—but that didn't mean he was good at it.
But anyway, if you still enjoyed it despite some problems, I'm sure I'll have fun with it. I loved the flash backs in the second film, so was encouraged with the idea of a prequel.
(And yah, Tannis. I like him in the second film.)
- Taliesin_ttlg said...
Sherry, I enjoyed underworld 1 & 2 as well. I think you will like this, so long as you go in with accurate exoectations as it were - because then it does what it says on the tin
- S. Roit said...
I may see it next week, week after, depending on funds.
Possibly left field comment here, to you, but I'm also interested in finding out what Michel thinks of it. ;-)
- clark said...
Don't know if it's of any help, but further info on the film is available on Wikipedia - just type in the film's title.
- Taliesin_ttlg said...
cheers Clark
I've watched an out-of-synch upload of the film online. As you say, it's okay (or at least I imagine it would be when in synch) as long as you don't have expectations. I don't think it will be of much interest to anyone outside of fans of the first two films.
On the other hand, as a vampire-related film, it's a positive masterpiece next to Twilight.
- Taliesin_ttlg said...
Hiyah Simon. You're right - probably not of interest to anyone who has not seen the first two films.
Hopefully, however, I can convert you to Twilight... no, not the original, but do check out the bunny version!
\hah yes, I saw that on your blog earlier and had it twittered. Definately better than the original!

BucZone members,
In our continuing efforts to improve this board, and based upon the community's suggestions, we are going to make a few small changes tonight. They include advanced thread titles in the last post, instead of simply the identity of the last poster, user profiles on the left hand side since that appears to be the overwhelming preference, and a quote remover so that you will no longer need to do it manually.
The changes will be made beginning at midnight, but there is no need to take the site down to do it. You can continue posting as normal, although as always there is the potential for some bugs that will need to be ironed out tomorrow. We just wanted to provide advance notice of what is about to happen, and are pleased to say that there are other very exciting features that are currently being tested in some internet netherworld that the smart people call the "sandbox," and will hopefully be implemented in the next week or two.

Is it dangerous to study abroad?
The world is full of all kinds of people. AND, just like the USA, most people are good. However, you should use the same caution you would exercise when visiting a big U.S. city when you travel. In addition, the Office of International Relations & Global Engagement monitors the situation in each country where we have programs and will cancel a program if the U.S. Department of State issues a Travel Warning. Be careful, but don't be afraid to travel and study away.
Wouldn't it be better to wait until I graduate to study abroad?
You may have more money after graduation as hopefully you'll have a full-time job, but you won't have more time. Now is when you have the most time-flexibility in your life. Make the most of it. Remember also, if you enroll in a BHSU Partner Program or an affiliated program you can apply your federal financial aid toward the costs of your study away experience. And, in some cases, you can teach abroad and make money while you are still attending BHSU classes.
Will I have to commit to a whole semester or year if I want to study abroad?
While there is much to be gained from a longer experience, such as a semester or year, that immerses you in the culture, there are shorter programs available that can be as short as one or two weeks in length. Sometimes a shorter experience can give you a small taste of studying abroad and lead to longer options when you are ready. The International Office can help you craft the right study abroad experience based on the time and budget you have available. We have a study abroad option for ALL students.
Will I still be able to use my financial aid?
BHSU partner exchange programs allow students to utilize both their federal financial aid and BHSU institutional scholarships because you are paying BHSU tuition. Outside Affiliated Programs give students the opportunity to apply their federal financial aid to their study away expenses. Financial aid eligibility for other programs offered by study away organizations or other U.S. universities that do not have an official partnership agreement with BHSU is determined on a case-by-case basis; BHSU institutional scholarships are not applicable to these programs. Confused? Come by and talk to the international office to work on your individual financial plan for study abroad.
Will studying abroad matter to future employers or graduate schools?
The job market and admission to graduate or professional schools gets more competitive every day. Employers and graduate/professional school admissions officers are looking for something that sets you apart from the mass of applications they receive for each opening. Study abroad is a quality that sets you apart from the crowd. And, more and more employers are looking for diverse learning experiences. Studying Abroad can tell employers that you can work independently, aren't afraid of challenge and can thrive in any location.
Will my credits earned abroad transfer back to BHSU?
When you apply for a BHSU International Relations Program, you'll complete the Learning Agreement Form (LAF). Before you ever leave Spearfish, every course you plan to take while studying away will be approved and a BHSU equivalent will be determined. Completing the LAF and the rest of the Study Abroad application process ensures the credits you earn away will transfer back to BHSU.
Will I still graduate on time if I study abroad?
As long as you consult with your advisor, department head, and International Relations and Global Engagement Office, there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to graduate on time, even if you attend a full-year program away. The key is to plan and approve coursework before leaving and then sticking to the agreed upon plan. If there will be any changes to your agreed upon plan while you are abroad, every effort must be made to work with International Relations to approve the new courses.
Will I be able to meet my major requirements while studying abroad?
While some BHSU majors are very specific about how you need to fulfill major requirements, most majors offer some flexibility and many students are able to complete one or more major courses while overseas. What is required is advance planning and consultation with your academic advisor and the international office.
Do I need to learn another language to study abroad?
Although some of our programs are designed for students with a foreign language capability, many programs are taught exclusively in English and in countries where English is either the native language or is widely spoken, such as Germany, Korea or China.
How much does it cost to study abroad? Is it very expensive?
Studying away is much like buying a car. Many types and styles are available to fit a variety of budgets. At BHSU, we offer many high-quality, low-cost, partner university programs that are easily affordable by most students. These options allow students to utilize both their federal financial aid and pay BHSU tuition, making these programs incredibly affordable study away options.

Shanghai Gold Exchange gives green light to new plans for gold!
Shanghai Gold Exchange is progressing and gaining ground in the international field as it introduces more plans. After opening its doors in 2014 and also establishing its benchmark index of gold prices, the market ended the year increasing its activity by almost 60%, trading 18,500 tons of gold.
The Chinese experts explained this improvement stating that there was a growing demand of investment by mining companies and institutional investors which use gold to avoid risks, as it was a year of great volatility.
Clearly, the international arena is an advantage to improve their figures, but let us not forget about the relevance of the country in the gold market. Already during 2013, the level of gold produced and imported by China exceeded the global production by 50%, and the consumption of the precious metal was 60% of the total gold supply.
For 8 years in a row it has been the largest gold exchange in the world, and everything suggests that the president, Xu Luode will aim at keeping the reputation and continue introducing innovations. That means future plans of cooperation with countries such as India – another important nation in gold market, as well as competition with the main gold exchanges in London and New York.
Therefore, the president of Shanghai Gold Exchange has proposed to let foreign individual investors start to participate in the gold market. At the moment, the privilege of participation is just reserved for banks, refineries or gold producers.
Analysts of the market foresee a growth of China in the gold market – despite being a young market; and see the competition with other gold exchanges likely, as when the new pricing system was established in London, 3 Chinese banks came close to participate.
Besides these plans, there is no doubt that the product itself contributes more than anything to this success. More and more investors – individuals and institutions - turn to gold while the prices are relatively affordable, expecting high returns in the nearest future.
Thousands of clients around the world have been enjoying the advantages of this precious metal for over 5 years. They buy investment gold bars in the Emgoldex online store, and create a gold business from scratch with which they receive a high and stable level of income, ensuring thus the well-being of their future!
Share the latest events of the gold market and let your friends discover the best chance to buy gold!
