Wild deers of BeijingPosted by Jeremy Goldkorn, July 7, 2008 9:31 AM
Yesterday in the mountains west of Beijing in Hebei Province, your correspondent stumbled into a wild deer: the Siberian Roe Deer (Capreolus pygargus). It looked very similar to the deer pictured left, which is a different species - the plain old Roe Deer (Capreolus capreolus) found in Europe. Images of the Siberian Roe Deer on the Internet mostly show red or reddish fur color, but the beast I saw was distinctly grey. According to online sources, the Siberian Roe Deer's winter coloring is grey, but it seems a little hot for that already. Searching for further images and information, I did a Google image search on the Chinese word for Roe Deer (狍子 paozi). One of the image results on the first page was this picture: ![]() Deer meat strips with celery Links and Sources

Diamond Hill by Feng Chi-shun: Feng's memoir Diamond Hill describes an era of gambling and gangsters, Suzie Wong and squatter villages, fires and food stalls, and the Kowloon Walled City and its white powder. "A time when people were poor, but life was rich," he says. The world that he grew up in no longer exists, but his book - the first ever on the Diamond Hill refugee settlement, in either Chinese or English - offers a candid picture of what life was like for most Hong Kong residents in the 1950s.
William A. Callahan's China: The Pessoptimist Nation: China: The Pessoptimist Nation shows how the heart of Chinese foreign policy is not a security dilemma, but an identity dilemma. Through a careful analysis of how Chinese people understand their new place in the world, the book charts how Chinese identity emerges through the interplay of positive and negative feelings in a dynamic that intertwines China's domestic and international politics.
The WTO ruling: a half victory at best: In August 2009, a World Trade Organization panel ruled against China's system of monopoly control over entertainment products. Was this the victory supporters hailed as the dawn of a new day for American and global entertainment companies in the China market?
