An ongoing topic - click here for Most Recent Post I usually put these in a separate topic, but a collection is better for some. I'll continue posting my own pictures in my own topics. These are from China Highlights The Four Best China Karst Landscapes for Tourists Wulong in Chongqing

from the Global Times Facebook Veteran tattoo artist sees rise in removals as cause for pause -
When you're in China, does anyone ever ask what their English-language (or Western gibberish) T-shirt says? I thought about this today as I was reading our waitress' . She didn't seem to care (or that I was looking) - it said "many many". No one ever has asked me to read their T-shirt for them, either for meaning or pronunciation. If I were at home, I could attach a picture I took of a girl wearing a "please murder me" T-shirt.

This has been mentioned in other posts (the October trade fairs), but for those of you with October interviews, book your hotel now. My SO is currently in Guangzhou for her medical and checked with several hotels ... all of which report they are already booked full for October (at 200-400% of the normal rate, I might add). If you are looking for inexpensive western food in Guangzhou, she tells me she found a western restaurant in the Ikea store that meets both criteria. For those of you who do not know, the Ikea store is adjacent to the US Consulate in Guangzhou, on the west (? ... I've never seen the sun in Guangzhou so still do not do well with directions) side. Lastly, I have been told this has been reported on 001, but I have not seen it here. Apparently, the hospitals in Guangzhou are checking the applicants for tattoos, per the instructions of the US government. Now, my SO confirms it. When the hospital was "inspecting" my SO's entire body, my SO asked the hospital staff why? She was told by the hospital staff that recently the US government instructed the hospital to inspect for tattoos and report same. 001 is reporting that tattoos must be removed, but my SO was not able to confirm that rumor (she has none) while she was at the hospital. I would really like to know: (1) why medical inspection for tattoos is now important. If for identification purposes, that I understand; and, (2) if they are required to be removed as 001 reports (which would really baffle the heck out of me, but the US government has done stranger things). Maybe this an appropriate question for USCONGUZ.
