OK, but it's something else again to do nothing. But I understand the placebo effect too, and it is to be avoided. Feeling good about yourself is fine, but it doesn't mean you are a 'good person', vis-a-vis anybody else. Everybody is part of the cosmix, and the cosmix obviously isn't what it ought to be.
Sorry, I was trying for too much wisdom there.
misfit, you got a point.
@Napoleon: "Mogabe had done a lot of good, but..." then, yep. Makes me think of Qadhafi in Libya.
Suggest he go to an ordinary pre-school here, his best chance to learn Chinese.
No results found.
Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.
As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.
Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.
Too bourgeois.
Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
Ain't no flies on Salvador's.

China cracks down on pyramid scheme "epidemic"
发布者YES - hammer these greedheads!
But it might be better to consider that societies that reward the greedy with what is considered to be 'success' are very likely to see greed proliferate, which will, in turn, piss a lot of people off, sooner or later.
