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.
Detailed Kunming metro plans finally unveiled

Rebranded Shaolin temples open today
Posted byThis isn't a rant. It is said with a little sadness.
This development is good for Kungfu, but perhaps not so good for Buddhism. Anyone who has visited the main Shaolin Temple will have experienced Kung Fu Incorporated. Including the Kung Fu cabaret, Cirque de Soleil rip off, blatant commercialism, and overpricing. The only thing missing are the harlots and moneychangers. Call me cynical, but many Chinese visitors I have spoken to are also saddened and disappointed (with a capital D) by the culture.
Many temples are now attracting money from many sources, and the need for commercialism is not as strong as it used to be. Those temples that have not already died, seem to be more stable than before, many are renovating.

Details emerge in Yunnan's largest-ever gutter oil case
Posted by@ James,
This is sadly the result of unrestrained capitalism.
There is nothing new under the sun. A book was recommended to me, Upton Sinclaire's 'The Jungle' about the meat industry in Chicago in 1905. Not just tainted meat, but other fake foods, tainted milk (sound familiar), exploitation of factory workers (Fox... anyone?), crime, trafficking, drugs, etc.
The jungle was a protest book, and shares common flaws with other protest books, but the parallels with life in modern China are uncanny.
Nestlé investing 100 million yuan in Pu'er coffee
Posted byRef. shit brew.
That is more to do with the processing, and not so much the bean.
There is a reasonable variety of different 'flavours'/roasts of Arabica beans available. Some of it really good.
Nestle seem to specialise in instant coffee. The top one is Gold Blend which is not very hard to find, probably too dear for local tastes, but a damned sight better than UCC's offerings IMHO.
