Typhoon made a perfect match of parrots

www.chinanews.cn 2005-08-01 16:47:55

No. 5 typhoon "Haitang" just swept across China was most impressive in
its power of destruction. To the male eclectus parrot in the Birds
Singing Grove in Fuzhou's forest park, however, "Haitang" brought him an
unexpected lover, a beautiful female eclectus parrot. Eclectus parrots
usually inhabit forests located in lowland and rain forests and have been
included into the catalog of "Convention on International Trade in
Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna." As Fujian does not have such
species of parrots in the past, this female parrot probably flew a long
way from the neighboring area of Taiwan with help of "Haitang's" wind
power. Pictured, the female eclectus parrot named "Fire Haitang" fell in
love with the male eclectus parrot in the Birds Singing Grove in Fuzhou's
forest park.

Shuttle Discovery docks at Space Station

A view from the International Space Station shows space shuttle Discovery
as it approaches the station for docking. The crew of Discovery boarded
the ISS, as NASA said it needed three more days to assess any damage to
the space shuttle.(Photo: AFP)

SPACE CENTER, Houston, July 28 - Discovery docked at the international
space station Thursday after performing an unprecedented back flip to
allow those aboard the outpost to photograph the shuttle's belly for
signs of damage.
The digital camera images will be analyzed by NASA to spot any signs of
trouble. It wasn't immediately clear how long that analysis will take.
Discovery was just 600 feet beneath the station when Commander Eileen
Collins manually steered the shuttle's nose up and slowly flipped the
spacecraft over.
Collins then repositioned the shuttle and locked onto the station just
after 7 a.m.
About two hours later, following leak and pressure checks, Discovery's
astronauts entered the orbital lab, where they were greeted with hugs and
bread and salt��a Russian tradition thought to bring good luck when
visiting another's home.
The station's crew then took Discovery's astronauts on a tour.

China's coal shortage easing

www.chinanews.cn 2005-07-22 13:55:54

Chinanews, Beijing, July 21 (By Yu Jingbo) - It is revealed at today's
national coal work conference that as the economy cools down, China's
coal demand has dropped and the tension between coal supply and demand
has been alleviated to some extent. By the end of June, China's coal
reserve has reached 115 million tons, remaining at a normal level.
Chinese authorities also remarked today that although the situation has
become stable, the hidden risks should not be overlooked. Owing to lag
phase of coal investment and other factors, in the next few years,
China's coal, power, oil and transportation will remain quite tight.
It is learned that in the first half, China's coal market has witnessed
growing supply, slighter growth of demand, increased import volume and
reduced export volume. China's raw coal output reached 940 million tons,
up nearly 10% year on year, and the sales volume of merchantable coal hit
915 million tons, up 11.5%.According to anticipation of the National
Development and Reform Commission, China's coal output will reach 2.1
billion tons this year, while the figure was 1.956 billion tons in 2004.

July 12 - With the countdown entering its final hours, NASA declared
space shuttle Discovery ready to return the nation to space, and the
families of the fallen Columbia astronauts gave their blessing Tuesday.
Thunderstorms, however, threatened to delay the space agency's comeback
from the 2003 Columbia disaster. The forecast deteriorated slightly, with
the chances of acceptable weather at Wednesday's launch time put at 60
percent, and a tornado siren blared around noon after a funnel cloud was
spotted near the shuttle landing strip.
Discovery and its crew of seven were set to blast off at 3:51 p.m. EDT.
The last few technical concerns were resolved Tuesday afternoon at one
final launch review by NASA's managers.
