| | | hello tbs, core comrade jinping is doing just fine from where i view
first thing is first, a lurker called for desperate help by re-routed messaging and i make exception out of si retirement, to do the minimum to better ensure the durability of the thread under regime of freedom and liberty except to the disrupters who insult folks by calling them names. i permanently banned alex, without possibility of parole.
should any such same sort of characters be reported to me by means other than si, i shall with alacrity determine veracity of claim, adjudicate seriousness of matter, and mete out irrevocable resolution
in the case of alex, i found allegation of merit.
as long as i am visiting, i report ...
(1) the trade war is being met by currency campaign, and casualties are reported, but very out-of-the-box as team china seemingly, instead of backing rmb w/ gold, backs gold w/ rmb zerohedge.com ... unique game-play if true
(2) zte is certainly back in business, and huawei is inexorably chewing at Apple bloomberg.com
(3) brazil, predictably, is falling apart torontosun.com
(4) there is no connection between south china sea / taiwan and syria / russia, in so far as team china is concerned, as there is no relationship between rmb valuation and tariff-levy on china goods worldview.stratfor.com
(5) the trump needs to up his tariff game, because whatever is being tried so far has had no noticeable effect, and the strategically composed counter-party remains composed, much as would any kung fu master worth his belt & road ; the train is leaving and sooner or later folks must think for themselves, get on or be left behind asia.nikkei.com and theguardian.com
(6) the admiral zheng he protocol is gradually but certainly being reconstituted, one boat at a time, and sometime two or four popsci.com
(7) peace in the pacific shall likely be undergirded soon by loitering, cooperating, autonomous machines that have only mission in mind and no soul nationalinterest.org
(8) team china J20 sports, again, out of the box stratagem to even up playing field such that the F35 China allegedly copied may have to be sent back to the drawing board thedrive.com
(9) china space program is progressing and apparently open to all including the germans, unlike that american program, which is open to all except the chinese xinhuanet.com - oh well, no matter, slowly slowly people shall come around
(10) quantum spooky entanglements going well - i have not a clue what the article is talking about but sounds good popsci.com
(11) Some pics from the last few weeks
The kids and wife had spent 7 weeks in NYC, w/ the coconut doing american ballet theatre summer intensive and jack doing museum day-camps, and both taking in broadway shows and engaging w/ high-rise living
Now they are in the village of Yunnan province, doing cooking and painting lessons
all fun, and both kids learned to make good friends and to just hang out together after dancing / day-camps
i am diligently working, meeting counterparties, conferences-calling re strategy, but physically on Koh Samui
the family and i shall unite 10th august, so soon enough
all good, and some kind of wonderful
erita's new friend took this shot in not-so-dangerous nyc
jack making the rounds on an aircraft carrier, albeit not spying
macro economy looks good from this vantage point, less so at street level, an guessing
fourth of july added to china trade deficit given all the fireworks needed all over america
kids tell me "hamilton" was super
jack only allowed one piece of sweets every week, and he questioned whether the american snack-size counted as the one piece
find the spy
now, that is learning!
the coconut has been very good at the american ballet theatre intensive, and the better news, got accepted as gifted young dancer at the hong kong academy of performing arts to practice and perform during the school year
Erita is getting to be more and more like a friend of Mu Lan, Hermione Granger, Katniss Everdeen, Lara Croft, and Wonder Woman, in Yunnan village (where the mountains featured in the movie "Avatar" is featured
whilst the Jack is picking up the only appropriate attitude when out-numbered and being the odd man out
the kids are living here
i am presently here
here i am ... and i am frightened, eagerly anticipating tomorrow, for i get better looking everyday, day after night after day
been swimming everyday since 15th june, eating this
and that
and more
and much more
and top-up with still more
:0)
best, j
