Wiccans: What would you do? Ethics question.?
![\"shanghai](\"http://www.3minutesinshanghai.com/wp-content/uploads/shanghai)
If you were a biological researcher working on a cure for cancer and your research was shanghaied by the department of defense and suddenly you're working for the military industrial complex?
Bear in mind you have a family to provide for and research jobs are few and far-between.
In this instance, something with a purely altruistic usage may be being turned to a military usage.
I have nothing against working for the military, but in this instance, the biologist went into research to work on a cure for cancer, not find a new bloody weapon.
Am i still working on a cancer cure? if i'm still working on the cure, i don't think i care who i'm working for.
EDIT: don't do anything drastic. make sure you have something to fall back upon before you quit...if you do quit.

America's Next Top Model: Episode 9.10, "the Girls Go to Shanghai " Recap
Tonight's episode of America 's Next Top Model featured the aspiring young models going up against each other, but this time, not on the runway. Tonight's challenges include martial arts up in the air ad a Cover Girl photo shoot and commercial shoot.
So first off, the girls were shipped off to Shanghai , where a mysterious surprise greeted them upon their arrival at their house. As there were only six girls left, they expected to see six beds at their house. However, there were only six beds, which meant that two of them would have to share beds. Bianca and Jenah ended up sharing a bed, thus giving Heather, who was initially left with no bed, a space to sleep in.
Later, the girls took a tour around Shanghai with a martial arts expert as a tour guide. He then taught the girls several martial arts positions that they would be executing later. Since they were pressed for time, the girls had quite a rough time learning the positions. Finally, their challenge was revealed to them. The girls were required to recreate the martial arts position while being held up in the air by a rope. Most of the girls had a tough time keeping their grace and hiding their fear of heights, and Bianca backed off the challenge, and was thus disqualified. Heather, on the other hand, emerged victorious on this challenge as she was able to pull off a graceful performance. Heather garnered a shopping spree as her prize, and brought along Chantal to share her winnings with.
Judgment time came and Chantal was named first, as she had the strongest performance. Tyra called Saleisha next, but was warned that she needed to fix her smile on the photos, as it looked like she had bags under her eyes. Bianca was then called and commended for her strong photo. However, judges thought her commercial was quite weak. The last girl to be called was Jenah, who failed to bring life to her commercial.
The bottom girls of the day were Heather and Lisa. Tyra was very disappointed in Heather, but was more worried about Lisa, whom Tyra thought could not handle any more criticism. Tyra then decided to eliminate Lisa, who was sent home right from China .

shanghai fashion apparel
China's apparel industry in 2010 facing the development of four opportunities for
The development of the last two decades is the garment industry opportunities and challenges of the year, after the product management, brand management, capital management and resources to operate four phase, have been or are being achieved by the family workshop to the factory-style management, the factory-style management to group management, group management to the stock by the management of leap, forming a large-scale production capacity.
So the opportunities facing the garment industry at this stage there are those who do?
(A) increase people's income has stimulated the purchasing power of clothing
A direct result of the consumption structure upgraded sales model changes in the total amount of climbing, based on a number of enterprises are facing a sales model innovation test.
2005 January-September to 599.6 yuan per capita expenditure on clothing, compared with growth of 32.7% over the same period in 2004, the per capita expenditure was 441.8 yuan to buy clothes, an increase of 40.6%, accounting for 61.6% of clothing expenditure, of which the first three quarters of clothing price ratio increase of 24.8% over the same period last year, the price increase and exciting.
Volume expansion and upgrading of the structure to enable enterprises to have more mode selection, a base and conditional garment enterprises must carry out product upgrades ahead of the strategic planning, the future, China will be able to brand there own rating, local luxury clothing brand was born basically meets the conditions. China fashion market imbalances characteristic determines that China's top apparel brands must be regional.
The key to the concept of selling high-end Japanese brand clothing increasingly highlight the role of product sales. From the sky casting a net into the precision strike, corporate marketing and strategic synergy model of resource matching faces enormous challenges. 2005 season to buy clothing and other seasonal changes in the 2,5,7,9 month season, in recent months to buy clothing expenditure per capita respectively, over the same period last year 117.4%, 52.7%, 92.9% and 41%, sales of the role of Golden Week is even more prominent.
(B) the advantages of human resources
Low cost is the main aspects of competition in the industry, professional and technical reserves and low-cost human resources will lead to competition in the industry of the two distinct destination.
The needs of people first and business development strategies related. In China, competition in the industry was driven mainly in two aspects: the brand and cost.
Many garment and textile professionals nationwide colleges and universities, these schools there is no doubt that for the development of the apparel industry provides a rich talent pool. So far, the national research institutes with 104 apparel, clothing colleges and universities 2, and in more than 40 institutions of higher learning in the creation of professional clothing (lines), these are the future of garment enterprises in China brand strategy supporting the foundation.
Garment industry is labor-intensive industry, so make full use of human resources is the key to supporting this industry. From the Labor and Social Security Bureau released the 2005 top ten industry labor costs point of view, garment and textile industry a minimum. The use of cheap labor resources to the development of garment industry is undoubtedly in the clothing production costs at a competitive advantage.
(C) impact on the price of cotton and chemical fiber garments for export
China's clothing and the whole textile industry, the rise of international status, first of all depend on their degree of integration of industrial clusters, large and small and complete status of the industry simply will not have international influence, the so-called international brands would not dream of achieved.
Garment industry, and the price of cotton fiber is closely related to China is cotton and chemical fiber producing countries is also a big consumer of cotton and chemical fiber prices have begun to affect the international price movements, which for the chinese apparel export costs and prices have a significant impact.
Output of the status of how to develop the right decisions that affect the status of the global market, China's garment industry, how raw materials industries to conduct joint or integrated, to achieve the convergence of forces, such a prospect is very attractive, in which trade associations and industrial capital, the use of leverage will be a key influence on the power.
(D) of the Association to join forces have demonstrated the value of
From the overall capacity of China's industry is already ranked in the world in front, but from the overall competitiveness point of view and a far cry from the advanced level, in particular the profitability of less than 10% of others, first change the small and complete practical reality is that the industry Therefore, industry associations such as the joint approach is a very good choice.
Simply do not have the competitive small and complete, and only the use of joint forces in order to develop and grow, Wenzhou, Zhejiang enterprises, especially in the joint association of garment enterprises in the provision of access to information, the joint set design agencies, joint procurement, joint sales promotion, joint rally and so on to go the forefront of the country. Wenzhou's products despite the road brand is still a considerable distance to go, but the business philosophy has been inspired by the strategic value of this industry group. In fact, in the Zhejiang, trade associations, the strength of the resources is to transport back to the Greater Shanghai, Zhejiang, international fashion information is becoming the competitiveness of enterprises in Zhejiang.
Even if we have a number of negative factors, but the industry is still generally agreed that China's garment industry is now facing rare opportunities for development during this period known as the Garment Industry Development's "period of strategic opportunity." China's clothing industry is currently the focus should be on restructuring, strive for high-end products have a new breakthrough, especially with the advent of the post-quota era, China's garment industry will face a major change in the situation.
From the international environment, the world's economic growth and trade patterns of the development trend of China's garment industry will be a favorable opportunity; from the domestic situation, China's overall national strength has further enhanced China's garment industry will provide more powerful support and a higher level of market demand; the same time, technological development and progress, increase productivity, but also for the development of China's clothing industry, more advanced facilities, which will greatly reduce China's clothing industry and the gap between the world's advanced level.

About Zheng Guogu - a chinese Artist
Zheng Guogu was born on 1970 in Yangjiang, Guangdong province, China. He lives and works in Yangjiang, Guangdong province, China. Zheng Guogu is one among a growing number of postmodern artists who have been reacting to the rapid shifts taking place in China over the past ten years by giving artistic shape to the phases of social and economic transformation. What distinguishes him is his commitment to the local culture of his hometown and his role in directing attention to it, while engaging with trends in global contemporary art. The international art world has fallen in love with contemporary Chinese art, and somehow Zheng Guogu, although often included in group exhibitions in Asia and Europe, has not been singled out often enough. He juggles fact with fiction or myth, while controlling the entry points to his community for visitors from the art world, who make the trek to visit him in the small town where he lives and works. I went to visit Zheng Guogu in the fall of 2003 on my second research trip to China. Luckily, Lydia Thompson, a colleague from San Diego, who has a Ph.D. in Chinese art history accompanied me, and since she speaks mandarin, was pressed into the role of translator. Zheng Guogu came to pick us up from Guangzhou, China’s largest city in the south, and brought us to his hometown of Yangjiang, two hours drive away.
Zheng Guogu was born in 1970 in Yangjiang, towards the southwest part of Guangdong province. Known for its knife and scissor factories, it is situated on the edge of the China South Sea. Yangjiang became a town in 1988 when farmers and others from the outlying rural areas were encouraged to move there to participate in a new economic enterprise zone. Zheng Guogu comes from an artistic family. His father is a traditional instrument maker and a singer, who has at times worked for the Hong Kong Opera, a five hour drive east from Yangjiang.
During the years that Zheng Guogu was growing up, things were already changing in China as the Maoist period receded into the past and the country opened up to the rest of the world. He and his generation had access to the West and Hong Kong through television, pirated CVDs of Hollywood films and computer games. So although he was physically isolated, he was accessing the West, albeit virtually, at a young enough age so as to take these new experiences and freedoms for granted. He attended the Guangdong Academy of Art in Guangzhou, China’s third culture capital, with a focus on printmaking.
While a student there, he was introduced to a slightly older group of artists that formed the Big Tail Elephant Group (Lin Yilin, Chen Shaoxiong, Xu Tan and Liang Juhui) in 1991, and they encouraged the younger artist to experiment with performance and conceptual art.
Selected Exhibitions:

Research Report of chinese Urban Rail Transport Industry, 2009
By the end of 2008, more than ten cities have the rail transport with the total lengths exceeding 6 hundred kilometers. Chinese government had approved the rail transport plans in 17 cities, which were planning to construct 65 rail transport lines by 2015 with the total lengths of 1,856 kilometers and the total investments exceeding 675.5 Yuan (96.5 billion USD).
At present, Chinese urban rail transport is in its fast growth period. From 1995 to 2009, more than 20 rail transport lines in ten cities were in operation over ten years and the operation mileages were 790 kilometers.
Recently, with the speed-up of Chinese urbanization process, the increasing population in China and the expansion of the urban areas, the construction process of Chinese urban rail transport is also accelerated.
According to the statistics, the total lengths of the urban rail transport network plans in 15 economically developed countries, including Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Wuhan, Nanjing, Chongqing, Changchun, Harbin, Shenyang, Hangzhou, Xi’an, Chengdu and Suzhou etc, have reached to 1,700 kilometers with the total investments exceeding 600 billion Yuan (85.7 billion USD). The urban rail transport line plans in these 15 cities had been approved during 2003 to 2006.
Apart from the above mentioned 15 cities, another more ten cities, including Ningbo, Wuxi, Changsha, Zhenzhou, Dalian, Dongguan, Guiyang, Hefei, Kunming, Nanning and Fuzhou etc, are preparing to construct the urban rail transport with the preliminarily estimated lengths of 1,000 to 1,500 kilometers.
In recent years, the construction speed of Chinese urban rail transport was very fast and many lines were started to construct. From the development situation of the urban rail transport, the cities with the urban rail transport were increased from one to ten and the operation mileages were increased from 43 kilometers to 790 kilometers from 1995 to 2009 in China. Shanghai and Beijing put forward the promises of constructing 40 to 50 kilometers rail transport annually in recent years. The three largest cities Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou broke with the convention to construct 4 to 6 lines at the same year with the annual investment growth speed over 10 billion Yuan.
There were deep social and economic backgrounds for the above mentioned circumstances. With the fast economic development in China, there appeared the traffic jams in the various large cities; the traffic accidents were increased; the environments were seriously polluted; the appearance time was prolonged; the backward transportations in the cities had affected the fast development. The city transportations, especially the transportations in the megalopolises, had been the initial problems. Under such circumstances, the various cities chose to develop the urban rail transport as their solutions.
There is huge potential for Chinese urban rail transport industry, which has attracted many foreign funded enterprises’ attentions. Siemens Ltd, Bombardier Inc, ALSTOM and Alcatel, Westhomes Electric Co., Ltd and Mitsubishi Corporation have joined in Chinese urban rail transport market gradually. As far as the actual situation is concerned, Chinese urban rail transport investors prefer to cooperate with the foreign funded enterprises, especially the American and European enterprises. By contrast, the American and European technologies occupy the advantages regardless of the locomotives or the constructions. American and European enterprises usually win in the bidding process.
The urban rail transport, as the important part in modern cities, is the indispensable infrastructure of the city development, which is not only the important sign to weigh the modernization level, but also the crucial guarantee for the sustainable development. Under the circumstances of international financial crisis, many Chinese regional governments have taken the urban rail transport constructions as the major forces of expanding domestic demands and propelling the economic growth. In next 2 to 3 years, there are many investment opportunities in Chinese urban rail transport industry as well as the urban rail construction enterprises, the equipment manufacturers and the construction machinery manufacturers.
This report analyzes the construction industry, the equipment manufacture, development history and present situation of Chinese urban rail transport industry respectively and also predicts the development trends and investment opportunities of Chinese urban rail transport industry in the future.
