1. WATER THAT GOES WITH SPIRITThere is an old saying in Finland: If one is happy,one must be silent. This helps explain why when
the rest of Europe heads for the sea, the Finnsholiday in contemplative solitude, preferably by alake. A quarter of the population own a countrycottage used in both summer and winter. There isan almost mystical bonding between the Finns andwhat they call the nature, a relationship which
blends spiritual values with more earthy pleasures.Finland was an entirely agrarian economy until the1950s. Many summer retreats are farmhouses thathave been handed down by the families whosebreadwinners now live in the city. Ideally, thecottage will be on the waters edge, surrounded byquiet forest. It will have an open fireplace, a poeticverandah, a pier, a boat, an inevitable sauna and avegetable patch. Most are rough hewn but cozy,with unpolished wood. Water might be well-drawn; there is electricity, but candlelight is
preferred. The fewer concessions to modernity, thebetter.

2. DANGERS SAID TO EXCEED BENEFITSThe anti-nuclear movement, with its slogans of ³Keep
Uranium in the Ground´ and ³Go Solar not Nuclear´,strongly developed the theme that the problems associatedwith the development of the nuclear power outweighed anypossible benefits. Anti-nuclear scientists such as Dr. RBTemple, former head of the Chemistry Section of theAustralian Atomic Energy Commission, and George Wald, a
Nobel Prize-winning professor of biology at HavardUniversity, claimed that nuclear advocates wereunderplaying the risks. They dissented from the view of Dr.Edward Teller, a prominent nuclear scientist and ³father of H-bomb´, who said: ³Nuclear is not a Faustian Bargain.´³With nuclear power´, Dr. Temple warned, ³man now hasthe capability of making the world uninhabitable.´ Theystrongly questioned assurances given about all phases of thenuclear cycle. They raised as to whether the nuclear industrywas realistically assessing the risk of reactor accidents, citingthe Brown¶s Ferry nuclear plant incident in the United Statesin 1975.

3. Official figures show that only 13% of high-schoolstudents now graduate with a foreign language -compared with more than 40% in the 1960s. There
are concerns that these deficiencies could isolate Australia from its partners in Asia and pose problemsfor trade, diplomacy and security. Other academicsworry that language training and teaching in bothuniversities and schools has been eroded since the
1980s. Then the Australian government gave specialattention to Asian studies as it sought to establishcloser ties with the region. As the world's economicpower shifts to emerging blocs including Asia, Australia's language gap could be exposed. PippaMcCowage, a 22-year-old economics student fromSydney, believes that many young Australians have ahalf-hearted approach to foreign languages.

10. China has completed construction of the main wallof the Three Gorges Dam - the world's largest hydro-electric project. The controversial dam in central Hubei
province will not be fully operational until 2009, once allits generators are installed. China says it will provideelectricity for its booming economy and help controlflooding on the Yangtze River. Critics say over a millionpeople were moved from the area, and the reservoir
behind the dam is already polluted. On Saturday,builders poured the last amount of concrete to completethe construction of the 185m high, 2,309m long wall. Asenior Chinese official said the event marked a"landmark progress" in the dam's construction, thestate-run Xinhua news agency reported. When its 26turbines become operational in 2009, the dam will havea capacity of more than 18,000 megawatts. Already theworld's second-largest consumer of oil, China says itneeds alternative energy sources to combat widespreadpower shortages.

nothing but an instant flight could save him.Not always that! For once a friend of mine,seeing the inevitable danger before him, tookship from a certain port (with a toothbrush for
all his luggage, so conscious was he of hisdanger and the necessity for immediateaction) and spent a year traveling round theworld; but when thinking himself safe,
"Women are fickle", he said, "and twelvemonths she will have forgotten all about me".He landed at the same port, the first personhe saw gaily waving to him from the quay
was the little lady from whom he had fled.

The manufacturing sector expandedsignificantly during the post-World War IIreconstruction of the Philippine economy. Thegovernments controls on imports promotedthe development of light industries thatproduced consumer goods for the domesticmarket. In the 1970s the government created
four special economic zones designed tostimulate manufacturing for the exportmarket. The industries in these export-processing zones are encouraged to produce
traditional exports. The zones have attractedforeign investment for the Philippines due toits tax exemption policies. The success ofthese zones has led to the creation of otherlarge-scale special economic zones.

16. Although fertility rates in poor countries have declined inrecent years, the UN has estimated that the worldspopulation should stabilize at approximately 10.2 billionpeople by the year 2100, when the number dying will match
the number being born. This figure is two and a quarter timesthe present world population. A long-held and popular beliefis that population growth in poor countries is the major causeof poverty. The population explosion, it is argued, is wipingout any economic development which the poor countries mayachieve. The remedy to poverty is seen, therefore, to beincreased birth control. This view has come under severe
criticism by poor countries and their supporters in wealthynations. They argue that large families and rapid populationgrowth are consequences of poverty rather than its cause.Many of the poor consider a large family to be essential forsurvival in poor countries. In a society lacking social welfarepayments, children are seen as a source of security in old ageand when illness or unemployment strike. Children are also
regarded as a means of bringing in additional income at anearly age. In addition, because child mortality rates are high,a large family is considered necessary to ensure that at leastone son survives to adulthood. Another argument is thatemployment opportunities and adequate social securityschemes are the key to falling birth rates.

According to economic experts' analysis,the removal of tariff barriers will make theprice of imported raw materials go down.This will help reduce the consumption priceand benefit consumers. The narrow gapbetween domestic and world prices helpsreduce smuggling and trade fraud and make
the Vietnamese market healthier. Thepresence of foreign groups will also givefresh impetus to improve competitive force oflocal distributors and speed up theestablishment of a modern distributionsystem in the market. Consumers will haveopportunities to buy high-quality goods atreasonable prices.

19. Chemicals enter our food in various waysand for various reasons. Farmers useherbicides to kill weeds, pesticides to killinsects, fungicides to kill mold and fertilizersto promote growth. All of them are veryharmful to health and also to theenvironment. After harvesting, most cropsare subjected to further "post-harvest"
chemical treatment in order to protect themfrom fungus. Japanese rice, for example, issprayed with methyl bromide, which cancause mental disorders and speechimpediments. Fresh fruits and vegetables are
sprayed with sulfites, to which many peopleare allergic. Bananas, mangoes and othertropical fruit are sprayed with even morepoisonous chemicals.

20. The World Bank has blocked a $232 million loan for aroad-building project in the Philippines to considerallegations of corruption in the bidding process. The WorldBank's board has postponed a decision on the new loan so
that it can read the findings of an internal report on bidrigging during the first phase of the road project. WorldBank spokesman Peter Stephens says the report waspublished on the same day that phase two of the projectwent to the board for approval. "It's actually a delay whilewe look in depth at a report on corruption and measures to
deal with corruption on the project. The board has quiteproperly asked quite a few questions about what sort of procedures in place," said Stephens. In the first phase of theproject, the World Bank says it rejected two large contractsworth $33 million between 2003 and 2006, because of evidence of collusion and excessive pricing in some biddingby companies. The bank's internal investigation unit hassince drawn up a report. The Wall Street Journal reportedbank investigators had concluded that a Chinese firm, ChinaState Construction Engineering, had tried to rig bids with acartel of construction firms.

China s one child policy and the traditionalpreference for male heirs have led manycouples to try to ensure that their singleoffspring is a boy. Some pay for illegalultrasound tests to discover the sex of afoetus and abort it if it is female. The Chinesegovernment says it is drafting new laws totackle the gender imbalance caused by theabortion of female foetuses. New rules areexpected to set out specific punishments forparents and doctors. China's Family Planning Association (CFPC) has revealed the alarmingextent of the imbalance. Experts fear the
phenomenon could have unpredictable socialconsequences. Some believe that with millionsof men unable to find a wife, there could berisks of increasing anti-social and violentbehaviour.

Authorities had estimated that more than twomillion people would attend the three-dayfestival. Panic broke out after a concert onDiamond Island, which followed a boat race onthe Tonle Sap river regarded as a highlight of thefestivities. Sean Ngu, an Australian who was
visiting family in Cambodia, said too many peoplehad been on the bridge. He also said some of thevictims were electrocuted. "There were too manypeople on the bridge and then both ends werepushing," he said. "This caused a sudden panic.The pushing caused those in the middle to fall to
the ground, then got crushed. "Panic started andat least 50 people jumped in the river. Peopletried to climb on to the bridge, grabbing andpulling the electric cables which came loose andelectrical shock caused more deaths."

clear her name and give her control of multinationalcorporation Chinachem. Wang was Asia's 35th richestperson, with a fortune of $4.2bn, according to Forbesmagazine. Wang became famous when her businessmanhusband Teddy was kidnapped 15 years ago. He was neverseen again and nine years later he was declared dead. Hisestate was valued at around $5bn, and his widow and fathereach presented a very different version of his will. The oneNina Wang had, which was handwritten, left his fortune toher. But the elder Mr Wang insisted his was the authenticwill which proved that he was the rightful heir. He began a
civil case against his daughter-in-law, accusing her of forgery, but in 2005, after an eight-year court battle, shewon the fight to clear her name and keep the money.

reduced. The English University of East Angliaresearchers gauged CO2 absorption through morethan 90,000 measurements. The results of their 10-year study in the North Atlantic show that the
amount of CO2 absorbed by the oceans halvedbetween the mid-90s and 2005. The scientistsbelieve global warming might get worse if theoceans soak up less of the greenhouse gas. Theresearchers said the findings were surprising andworrying because there were grounds forbelieving that the ocean might become saturatedwith human emissions in the future.

Some act as if they own nature andcan do with it what they will instead of being itstrustees for future generations of life on this planet.With the expansions of European colonization from the16th century and the rise of the industrial system,ancient environmental wisdom with regard to naturewas increasingly discounted. From the time of theNeolithic and Bronze Age revolutions, when decisivepioneering development of farming, stock breeding andmetal work had occurred, people began to have anincreasingly greater impact on the environment. In thedrive to exploit resources, there was scant regard for
the environmental consequences. Factory fumes andwaste polluted the air, water and soil as steam engineschurned and new industries boomed

places. According to the Health Ministry, the newregulation will come into effect on 1 May in many publicplaces including buses, restaurants and bars. But smoking
will still be permitted in workplaces. Almost a quarter of China's population smoke and more than one millionpeople die every year from smoking-related illnesses. Thataccounts for one fifth of people worldwide who die fromsmoking, according to the World Health Organisation.With more than 300 million smokers, China has long beena place where people can easily smoke. The newregulations have been welcomed by health activists. Somebelieve that the government has not acted early enough toreduce smoking in the country. Previously, the Ministry of Health had only banned it in hospitals. The new
regulations also include a ban on cigarette vendingmachines in public areas and a call for programmes towarn about the dangers of smoking. But the authoritieshave not announced how they will enforce the measuresand whether there will be penalties for businesses orindividuals breaking the rules.

altering the human food supply and threatening some ofthe world's poorest people with hunger. At the UnitedNations Conference on Climate Change in Bali, the groupargued developed countries should pay to address theproblem, and costs could top $50 billion a year. Climatechange, which many scientists believe is fueled by humanactivities, alters rain cycles and causes droughts andflooding. Rising temperatures mean some traditional crops
do not grow as well as they used to. The United Nationspredicts that in some African countries, crop yields couldfall by half. A report released by Oxfam at the conferencesome countries are already feeling the effects of a warmingplanet. In South Africa, farmers are planting faster-maturing crops to adapt to unpredictable rainfall.
Bangladeshis are creating floating vegetable gardens thatcan thrive in spite of floods.

How man-y years still on the move. To go
around for all tir-ed life. Just o-ver headthe sun and moon. Down on life-time aworld of mine. Which words are trees
which words are weeds, an evening drunk such a light life: days passed. Just ends thespring just ends the summer, in early fall ahorse comes back from far. The sun andclouds are o-ver head. Behind our back theriv-er stays. A lov-er de-mon has justcalled. Appears in me the hu-man heart
