It'll be a slow process, but I think China will improve to become the next economic power.
Most likely.
But there also starting to see the downsides of economic growth/urbanization: pollution, crime, etc.... :(

Dude, you think about sex too much. :rofl: I never even thought of that 'til you said that. Thanks a lot. Now everytime I look at it I'm going to think of a giant vagina. You've corrupted my innocent mind. :shocked: That's the Olympic stadium too! You're not supposed to make fun of it. :hehe:

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (this is sports' highest court) has ruled that:
Paul Hamm willkeep
the gold medal
that he earned in
the men's all-around gymnastics competition
for the 2004 Olympics.
You know the best part? That it's OFFICIAL (OH, DID I ALREADY MENTION THAT????).
No, no, wait . . . actually THE best part is that this decision is FINAL by the court; as much as it would've been if the court decided to take the medal away from him.
my korean friends here at work says that everybody wants the to take medals away from the s.korean teams. some yrs ago, the u.s short track skater appollo ohno (jpn dad) accidentally knocked down a s. korean competitor and the s. koreans wanted his hide! It also doesn't help that he was half jpn.
