If an employer then grabs the IP and sells it as their own, usually because they are too mean to buy books, I would get upset.
If an employer wants me to prepare course materials, and they pay me for it, no problem.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Respraying a bike frame @Lemon, this is why I suggested hand painting. Rattle cans are between 5-10 rmb.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Respraying a bike frame If I was going to get it done (big if), I would strip the bike down to the bare frame myself and use foam ear plugs in all of the small screw holes to protect the threads. I would mask any bigger holes with rags and tape. I would then take the bare frame in to the paint shop.
Forums > Living in Kunming > Respraying a bike frame As slight asides.
Hand painted bikes needed not look shabby and are less likely to get stolen, because they are harder to fence. Especially if they look hand painted, or are a bit ugly.
If you buy a cheap bike, it is not worth spending money on a custom paint job.

Developing a sustainable birdwatching industry in western Yunnan
发布者It is not so much the extra pressure on the environment that global tourism will cause, it is the effects that would occur if birdwatching becomes a more national phenomenon. I have seen the disruption caused by twitchers in the UK. If we multiply the potential for problems by the numbers factor (just look at any tourist site in Yunnan), this does require a lot of serious thought. The thought of a 'Birdline' China is a bit scary.

Weekend in Dali: A Chinese perspective
发布者The guest houses lakeside may well have been permanently hit, but how long ago was that? 1 or 2 years now? A year is a long time in Chinese business development.
The guesthouse trade will migrate a few hundred meters, creating new opportunities, if it has not already done so. I think the recovery has already taken a strong hold. Judging by the level of business I saw last week, and speaking to one local business owner.
