Americans, and the American northwest in particular, have caught the China fever -- for why else would they decide to construct a Chinese pavilion in Des Moines, Iowa? OK, we don't really consider that a big deal, but then again we've spent some time in places like Richmond, BC (OK, let's include Canada) and Rowland Heights, California -- Chinese enclaves where you could go days without hearing English -- so perhaps we shouldn't take the pavilion for granted.

Some guy named Paul Oakenfold (Paul Oakenfield according to page E04 of the current issue of City Weekend) is in town today and Shanghai's netizens seem to be talking about it. Paul is a DJ. A very famous one. And he will be doing what he does tonight at Club DKD. When? "Late." How much? 180 RMB at the door. The show is being presented by the "Cool DJ Agency" -- so it's guaranteed to be good.
