  • A one-way ticket on the Shanghai-Hangzhou maglev will cost 150 yuan. The story also says that a plane ticket to Hangzhou only costs 200 kuai. Is that true? And if so, how long could that flight possibly last?
  • The kitten stomper has apologized. She said she's divorced and depressed and that led to her savage murder of another living creature. Someone needs to take a cleaver and lop off that woman's head.
  • Mopeds can rest easy in Zhabei District now.
  • Good thing Shanghai's dead people are ... dead. Or else they might complain about this.
  • Looks like they have started mailing out Rolling Stones tickets in Shanghai. See one for yourself.
