Flights of fancy?
YOU'VE seen them in the movies, and read about them in
swordfighting novels - gongfu warriors who can sail through the
air.
But is the art of qing gong a myth or a possibility?
tONGUe_kUNg_fU said: 'Anything is possible if we keep an open mind.
I think Chinese martial arts has more to it than meets the eye. I'm
sure that maybe 3,000 or 4,000 years ago, the gongfu scenes in
China during the Wudang, E-mei and Shaolin eras were true. If only
I could travel back in time to see for myself.'
But imjustlight did not think so. 'Qigong may be possible, but qing
gong is impossible.'

Spending a windfall
IF YOU had $10,000, what would you do with it?
Netizens pondered this question and came up with innovative ways to
spend it.
For example, Nelstar suggested using the cash to bet on the
lottery.
Other more realistic users like Qitai said: 'If you are young and
have a lot of time, learn something new with it. A new language, a
new musical instrument, experiencing new things, travel etc, are
very good investments. If you are older, $10,000 is not a lot,
especially when you already owe the bank a few hundred thousand
dollars because of your housing loan and other debts.'
