Despite meetings this week in Beijing between senior American and Chinese officials, China is repeating its call to the United States to fix strained relations between the two countries.
China describes Deputy Secretary of State James Steinberg’s two-day fence-mending visit to Beijing as candid and in depth.
But, if there has been an improvement in ties [...]

This blog will be reactivated after I come back from China in April.
The place I’m travelling to is my father’s hometown, a desperate village locked in the mist covered mountain. I’ve been there five times over the last 28 years: 25 years ago there was no electricity supply, 10 years ago I couldn’t find GSM [...]

喜讯：本站近日购置的重要域名 ChinaTimes.net 已经就位，这是The China Times 建设过程中的重大事件。如同我们昨天在前一篇文章里提到的，ChinaTimes.net 对于我们有特殊的意义。首先，我们的站名本身就是China Times，一直没有改变，其次站长本人在求学过程中，受过台湾中国时报集团东主余氏家族在大陆捐资助学行动的恩泽。台湾中国时报已经被旺旺集团收购，他们使用的域名是ChinaTimes.com （中时电子报），原域名注册于上世纪九十年代，对多数人而言，穷一生之力也难以收购这样大的媒体资产，但是旺旺的老板做到了，这让我们后来人机会更加渺茫。

Considering the value of this domain to [...]

Yaogan 1, a Chinese Earth Observation Satellite, erupted into multiple pieces last week. By back-tracking the pieces, I believe the date and time of the incident was February 4, 2010 at about 6:49 UTC. It is interesting to note that the maximum difference in orbital speeds is about 22 m/s. That can be compared with [...]
