In the UK I did the same thing. I switched to concertina files (similar to the blue ones but bigger. BTW N/A in China) and then put these files in the filing cabinet.
By using the blue file boxes, with multiple dividers in them, you can probably increase the amount of documents you can store in a filing cabinet threefold.
Hi Dude
When I wanted a charger for my laptop I could not get one. But after chasing my techie buddies the advised me as follows, and the same advice can be applied to the camera.
Most chargers are generic. As long as you get the right voltage and the Amp rating of the charger is greater than or equal to the original.
The only exception I can think of is if the battery is LiPo. Then you need a LiPo Charger.
BTW have you tried Baidu?

I would be cautious of headhunters. Anybody can set themselves up as a headhunter in China, and many, many unqualified people do. They will even put forward unsuitable candidates, which is a waste of everyone's time.
If you want to find out more about recruitment in Kunming, you need to find someone who can help you search in Chinese.
Have you tried searching using Baidu.com search engine?
You may be able to search in English and get back lots of search results in Chinese characters. If you use GoogleChrome as the browser, you can set it to translate for you. Just an afterthought.
No results found.
Great to know it is no longer dry.
Good review BTW
This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.
A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.
Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.
In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.
They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.
They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
How bad is Kunming's air?
Posted byWe can argue about temperatures until the cows come home, and for political reasons, many people do. That is why the term 'global warming' has been superseded by the term 'climate change'.
As for the future. An important ecological presupposition is that an environment cannot be destroyed, only modified. The earths environment may be modified to a point where the earth can no longer support human life at the levels we have been used to. What happens then? Perhaps a lot of techno-fixes, to create micro climates that are less stressful for human life.
Perhaps, Africa will become more temperate, and other areas of the globe will become more hostile to life. Perhaps the droughts and famines will visit Europe and the Americas.
In nature, where the environment changes faster than animals can evolve, there is 'cultural evolution'. This is where animals change thier behavior in order to survive. The finches in the Galapagos isands are an example of this, where different species feed at different levels of the same tree, as a way of avoiding direct competition with other species. Personally, I think there is room for humans to undergo more cultural evolution.

Whoever is to blame.
DianChi is green with algae, and unsafe to swim in.
Urban air pollution/smog is recognised as a major problem in China.

I thought I had walked all of DaShangHui, but don't recall seeing kitchen supplies.
Can anyone give the exact location?
