IN SHORT ... From the Chinese Press
I Love Wangfujing, Bounty Hunt, Bank on National Day, Flying  Leopard and Too Many Toilets.

FYI: National Day
This year's National Day marks the 50th anniversary of the  founding of the People's Republic of China. Since only a  carefully selected few will be allowed to attend the October 1 celebration in Tiananmen Square, you will probably have to watch  the party on TV. And if you live anywhere near Chang'an Avenue,  you may find yourself under house arrest: curfews will be in  force throughout the city center. The following program will be  broadcast on every TV channel on October 1.
