TIC (This is China)

Only Cherry Coke communicates a degree of sophistication. White wine must be mixed with Sprite, definitely NOT Fresca.

Well, this is what I have been told.

If Fresca has come to China, I really may have to leave. Say it ain't so! Show me some Squirt and I might stay...

Not really TIC, but close ... more like TINK

North Korea has developed an online video game that allows you to drive a car through Pyongyang.

Chinese society has all kinds of strange behaviors, like that facekini a full face swimmers cap, too protect them from the UV, oddly uncomfortable looking and they seem to think that yellow and orange are the best colors they seem to think sharks are afraid of the colors? In realty the color are of the red family and can actually attract sharks, everything they eat is red, they in fact frenzy for the color and yellow and orange are close on the spectrum.

So I'm sure everyone has heard that Beijing is killing people with air pollution that is “beyond index” (886 micrograms per cubic meter). The World Health Organization considers a safe daily level to be 25 micrograms per cubic meter.

Over the last several weeks, every news story I've read about air pollution keeps saying "Hourly air quality updates are now available online for more than 70 cities". I guess my google abilities are lacking, as I am unable to find this data. Does anybody have links to where one can find Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and/or Dongguan?

Cheers!
