[Updated] Xinjiang riot leaves scores dead
The Xinjiang Riots: What's happened so far
"Oracle Bone" essayist fails gaokao, but gets into Sichuan University
Around Shanghai: No more airplane temperature checks, but we're getting a Wall St. Bull and Linkin Park!
Friday: NOT ME opening!
Around a week ago, we typed this:
Shanghaiist is reminded that when he first set foot in the city four years ago, there was a Moonbucks cafe situated in the Yu Gardens. Does anyone happen to have a picture of the logo? Send it to us, and we'll take you out to coffee (at the real Starbucks of course).
Well, looks like we owe Shanghaiist reader Helene Cormier a cup o' joe (and it also looks like we were wrong about the name 'Moonbucks.') Helene said she took this photo at the end of 2003.
Thanks, Helene!

I remember visiting Qingdao and seeing a coffee shop called Starsbuck. Not sure if it is still there but someone made a record of it on flickr.
Makes that "landmark" IP case for Starbucks against xing ba ke seem even more of a joke.
But hey, if the coffee is good and the price is cheap, I'll be there.
