If you are really concerned about heavy metal toxins you can get yourself checked out at these locations.
I go there every 5 years to see if there are any changes from my previous findings

Very impressive Mike - you covered all the 5Ws and then some. Wish more people could provide replies like you did here. Thumbs up. This thread is worth keeping for any others who may have the same question at a later time. Thumbs up Mike - great job!

Some people have no friends or buddies, foreign or chinese.
They remain indoors most of the time and they order food online and have it delivered.
When they do go outside, it is usually during evening hours when it is dark and they usually wear a hoody and a Guy Fawkes mask so as never to be recognized and give up their anonimity.

The new Visa office is located at 118 Tuo Dong Road. There is no number on the building yet so do not bother to look for it. There are 2 passport photo shops on either side of the building. The office is located directly in front of the Kunming Museum. The bus stop is named - Shi Bo Wu Guan - Bus 1, 62, 109, 117, 145, 213, A1 and K3 stop directly in front of the office. Foreigners need to go to the 3rd floor. The Tuo Dong Stadium is located to the right of the office while Baita Road is located to the left of the office.

China's national meat scandal hits Yunnan
发布者Just yesterday I watched something about this on the bus. The Customs folks stopped and confiscated a few big trucks on the road from Puer. The trucks were not refridgerated so this is one of the cause of the problems. So if the meat did make it in to its final destination it had to be repacked and refrozen after the long trip. Perhaps the meat in the center of the truck can keep but surely not the meat on top or the sides.

发布者I love it, the meat came from the the USA. Like Bayer selling hemophilia drugs tainted with AIDS to other countries.
Around Town: Zhaozong Reservoir
发布者Since I live on Zhao Zong Road I decided to pay this reservoir a visit via bus #7 which is 2 stops from my home.
The first thing I noticed is that there is plenty of constructuion going on - a new retaining wall is being built as well as a brand new pumping faciltiy with several large pipes to divert the water.
At the time this article was written, this reservoir may have just been a pond but that is no longer the case. "There are no pumping facilities or drains at Zhaozong Reservoir — it is simply a large pond".
The construction workers said that because water is such a precious commodity in Kunming every drop will be put to use in the near future.
Bus #7 to the Zhao Zong Yi Zu Cun Kou Bus Stop. Turn left when you see the Long Hua Temple a few meters before the main entrance to Sen Lin Hu = Forest Lake = 森林湖.
There were at least 20 redundant signs on the walking trail every 10 meters that clearly read - NO SWIMMING!
