...month. The food is "a little too oily," he says, but he likes the soy-milk drinks, and "the prices, of course, are very reasonable." (A meal of noodles, tea and custard dessert costs $4.) With eight storefronts around Shanghai, East Dawning could soon give China's biggest fast feeder, KFC, a run for its money. Good thing for them they're playing on the same team...
...world is bad news regardless. In the United States, many bulls are raised as beef cattle. Such bulls are usually born on cow-calf operations. At six to 10 months, they are weaned, and after about a year they’re sold to a cattle feeder or stoker/backgrounder who then prepares them for the feedlot (gives them grain, etc.).

When the water gods were feeling particularly charitable, he would land a Mekong catfish, a massive bottom-feeder that can weigh as much as a tiger. But today, when Bun Neang dips his net into the caramel-hued waters near Chong Koh village, all the 30-year-old can hope for is a few kilos of sardine-sized fish. Overfishing is partly to blame. But Bun Neang knows of another...
...Crime statistics reveal that in one four-month period in 2005, KBZ were responsible for almost 10% of crimes for the Counties Manukau East. One member has committed more than 100 burglaries. Two youth gangs known as Troublesome and the Bud Smoking Thugs are feeder gangs to The Killer Beez. Then there are the charmingly named "Motherf_____ Ruthless C___s," or MRCs. "The MRCs are known to the people in the area as bullies who use standover tactics to get money. They are also big on threatening people, snatching handbags and doing burglaries," says the intelligence report...
