China: Lunar Sample Reveals Far-Side Drier Than Near Side! (11.4.2025)

For nearly 20 years, there has been a debate over whether the water content in the Moon’s mantle, the middle layer between its surface and core, is abundant or scarce, while all published estimates were derived from near-side samples.

China’s Chang’e-6 lunar probe retrieved the first-ever lunar far-side samples from the Apollo crater within the South Pole–Aitken Basin, providing the first opportunity to determine the water content of the lunar mantle in this region.

The study revealed that a unique volcanic event dating back 2.8 billion years had not been observed in previous samples obtained from the near side.

UK: Bizarre “Anti-Dog” Green Propaganda Guardian Article – “Not April Fools” – Claims Author! (10.4.2025)

This had nothing to do with dinosaurs farting, or cavemen learning to light fires. The author – Donna Lu – is being slightly naughty here, as she seems to be expressing (or at least aligning her writing) common anti-pet viewpoints held by many Chinese people, equating this with the latest ridiculous excuse for “morally-led” climate change propaganda. Dogs pissing on a lamp-post, or cats burying their crap in the dirt my not be appetising – but I would suggest that there is NO genuine scientific evidence to suggest it does – as this would be agreeing with insanity. Of course, why on earth the Guardian would print an article that is insulting to British sensitivities is bewildering – but then again – the Guardian continuously publishes racially motivated (anti-China) articles all the time, pretending this White racism is “informed opinion”. It is also astonishing that the narrative this writer is presenting suggests the land-mass of Australia – which is so huge it is mostly empty – is experiencing dogs randomly attacking humans! I was going to say you couldn’t make it up – but obviously somebody has!

Journalist Ahmad Mansour was burned alive following an Israeli strike that targeted a journalists’ tent at Nasser Hospital, Khan Younis, in southern Gaza. Several other people were massacred and injured.

Sutton Cemetery - Qingming 2025!

UK: Qingming (清明) [2025] – “Sweeping & Cleaning the Grave” of the Chinese Ancestors! (5.4.2025)

At both times of the year the graves are repaired and made new – whilst one or two of the favourite things are provided – such as a glass of brandy and a cigarette. Some Chinese families – although not ours – make paper clothing which is burnt at the graveside in Autumn – alongside “Spirit Money” – or pretend banknotes, etc. Others take real food which is placed on a table in hygienic containers – offered as an oblation – and consumed later. Our two daughters used clothes and cleaning sprays to remove the dirt and shine the stone exterior of the graves. The bright flowers are then cut to fit into the holders. We often bring a flag of China and Buddhist pictures and statues. Today, I also carried a Ch’an Dao Martial Arts Association badge and a pair of Nunchaku. We lit six incense-sticks – three for each grave – and bowed-down three-tips (clapping the hands three-times). We have been performing these rituals since the early 1990s in the UK.

China: World Autism Awareness Day – Joint Efforts in China Light the Way for Children with Autism! (2.4.2025)

Over the 18 years since its establishment, the institution has expanded from a small classroom with just three teachers and five children to a centre with 54 teachers capable of helping more than 300 children each year.

Teachers take the children to farms, theatres and playgrounds, allowing them to try their hand at activities such as making soybean milk, picking fruit, feeding animals and riding horses.

Sun still remembers the despair she saw in the eyes of parents of autistic children back in the 2000s, when there were few specialized institutions to help them. Having trained as an educator, she brought two other teachers to Beijing to study before they established the first educational centre for children with autism in Shenyang.
