  • We've found a mascot uglier than Haibao: Yabi, who represents the 2010 Taipei International Flora Expo. And the two of them standing together kind of looks like a turd floating in water. [CRI English]
  • Hellooooo sailor, Fleet Week's here - U.S. Coast Guard cutter "Rush" is now throwing its uniformed men onto our shores. [CNN Go]
  • Wanna see robot butlers, robot cooks, robot nurses and robot teachers? Check out the China International Industry Fair, which has come to the Shanghai New International Expo Center and lasts until Saturday. [Shanghai Daily]
  • Founding editor Dan Washburn talks to Shanghai Talk about golf stuff right before two big golf events hit the green: the HSBC Masters and the Omega Mission Hills World Cup. [Shanghai Talk]
  • Whoops! Looks like something's going on at East West Theater. Producer Rosita L. Janbakhsh, which we interviewed a while back, has formed her own group: Shanghai Repertory Theater. They'll be showing A Christmas Carol in December. [SmartShanghai]
