And finally we are treated to a (sorta-)full Wanbao! Let the rejoicing begin!

• Jing N-V8888 -- that is the number of the first-ever personalized car license plate. No guessing: the number 8 will be big this time 'round...

• The Olympic Green is closed once again -- no idea when it opens, though...

• Olympicizing Beijing -- the three big concepts of People's Olympics, High-Tech Olympics and Green Olympics will now apply to the whole Jing. Please get ready for your arrival in a People's Beijing, High-Tech Beijing and Green Beijing. Me, I just want to use my Super Pass in parking lots, thanks very much!

• Welcome to Post-Olympics Beijing -- that's the slogan for 1,300+ South Korean students as they visit the Jing following the Games.

• USD 1 = CNY 6.8183. The Maobacks are now worth serious money.

• Tomorrow's Double-Nine Day -- be nice to all your Chinese grandparents!

Chillier and cloudier, 7°C - 17°C.
