A man wounded eight school children to death and injured five others while they were waiting at their
school gate in Nanping City, Fujian Province, on the morning of March 23.
Police arrested(put somebody into prison) 43-year-old suspect (嫌犯) Zheng Mingsheng, a former
community doctor in Nanping. Zheng is a native of Nanping and used to work at the Mazhan Community

A Spring Festival
Water-Sprinkling Festival, which comes in mid-April, is the new year of the Dai ethnic people (傣族人)
in southwest China"s Yunnan Province. In face of the recent serious drought disaster, there have been calls
for calling off this year"s festival celebrations.
Droughts and floods are not new things. Still, the Water-Sprinkling Festival keeps going on year by year.
Indeed, this is a serious drought, but that is not a reason to call off this year"s celebrations. After all, it is an
important event for Dai people to carry forward their culture.
Of course, the drought will affect the celebrations to some extent. Given the seriousness of the disaster,
this year not so much water is available for sprinkling. So many Dai people suggest only symbolic activities
be held. They also call for donations to be made and prayer ceremonies for rain around the festival. This is
expected to be a special Water-Sprinkling Festival.

Olympic stadium will soon be aiming at fans of winter sports.
As temperatures have begun to drop in recent weeks, so too has the number of visitors to the
80,000-seater venue, which cost 3.6 billion yuan ($527 million) to build.
And, fearing another harsh (寒冷的) winter, National Stadium Co Ltd, which owns the Bird"s Nest,
yesterday planed to spend 50 million yuan on a "snow festival".
From Dec 19, visitors will be able to pay 120 yuan to enjoy skiing and snowboarding, among other
things, on its newly constructed slopes.
The stadium owners expect to attract more than 20,000 visitors a day - twice as many as it currently
does-during the two-month festival, which will include events for both the Western and Chinese new years.
Officials revealed it would take just 5,000 visitors a day to cover the costs of the project.
"It"s not a bad idea. You can ski on man-made snow in Dubai, so why not here?" said Heiko Grasse, a
tourist from Germany, yesterday.
Famous outdoor equipment makers and local brands are in talks over sponsorship for the event, the
Bird"s Nest owners said yesterday, while the capital"s television network will also provide 500 hours of
coverage.
"The Bird"s Nest will not have a cold winter again," Wu Jingjun, the new president of National Stadium
Co Ltd, told China Daily yesterday. "We will create seasonal events almost every month from now on with

an idea of how the new wearable assisted-walking machine from Honda works.
The experimental machine, showed on Friday, is designed to support bodyweight, reduce stress on
the knees and help people organize steps and stay in crouching (蹲坐) positions.Honda showed a video
of its employees wearing the machine.
Engineer Jun Ashihara also said the machine is useful for people standing in long lines and to people
who run around to make deliveries.
"This should be as easy to use as a bicycle," Ashihara said. "It reduces stress, and you should feel
less tired."
To wear it, you put the seat between your legs, put on the shoes and push the "on" button.Then just
start walking around.
In a test run for media, this reporter found it does take some time to get used to the machine. "I
could sense how it supported my moves, pushing up on my bottom when I crouched and pushing at my
soles (脚底) to help lift my legs when I walked," he said.
The system has a computer, a motor, gears (齿轮), batteries and sensors in it, so it responds to a
person"s movements, according to Honda Motor Co.
Pricing and commercial product plans are still undecided. Japan"s No.2 automaker will begin testing
a prototype (模型) later this month.
The need for such mechanical help is expected to grow in Japan, which has one of the most rapidly
aging societies in the world.

around. Japan is among the world"s leading nations in robotics technology, not only for industrial use but
also for entertainment and companionship.

US President Barack Obama may have just made life more difficult for cigarette makers, but he still
smokes every now and then in secret.
Obama, who has publicly struggled to quit smoking, said he still hasn"t completely kicked the habit
even after signing a law this week that will likely set tough new rules for the tobacco industry.
"As a former smoker I constantly struggle with it. Have I fallen off the wagon sometimes? Yes. Am
I a daily smoker, a constant smoker? No," Obama said at a news conference.
"I don"t do it in front of my kids, I don"t do it in front of my family. I would say that I am 95 percent
cured, but there are times where I mess up," he said.
The new law gives the US Food and Drug Administration the power to strictly limit the making and
marketing of tobacco products.
At a White House signing ceremony Monday, Obama said that he was among the nearly 90 percent
of smokers who took up the habit before their 18th birthday.
"Once you go down this path it"s something you continually struggle with, which is exactly why the
law we signed is so important because what we don"t want is kids going down that path in the first place,"
he said at the news conference.
