From what I've read (other peoples' opinions, so I have no facts to back it up), I heard that China is like the "next Japan". Economy is booming and they are taking steps in the same direction as Japan had once did.
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. 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. That's the Olympic stadium too! You're not supposed to make fun of it.

It's official.
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.
