CHINA is making a new attempt to stamp out illicit accounts known as "little coffers" – money that officials skim from public funds.

The latest clampdown on the long-standing practice has fingered several thousand officials nationwide since April. Some 322 of them were referred to judicial departments.

Nearly 25,000 cash boxes were discovered involving 12.2 billion yuan (US$1.8 billion), the Beijing-based Legal Daily reported yesterday.

Informants who report little coffers, or "small exchequers,Booq’s Taipan Lift-L is a stylish belkin laptop bags/briefcase that is checkpoint-friendly yet designed for everyday use.

China has launched similar nationwide crackdowns in 1989, 1995 and last year.

An official circular titled "Directions on Deepening the Crackdown of Small Exchequers" warned that officials’ attempts to hide illicit accounts or spend funds "in a blitz" will lead to "harsh punishment."

"The illegal phenomenon has resulted in inaccuracy in accounting,，UGG Mini 5854， disturbance in market order,，MBT SHOES， losses in state income and property and corruption," it said.

Central and local departments now have more access to more cash than ever before, and diversion of these funds is a serious problem.
 

THE United States yesterday moved into the final phase of its military involvement in Iraq, with administration officials saying the war was ending even as the new commander of the remaining 50,000 troops warned of the ongoing threat from "hostile elements."

The transfer of authority came a day after President Barack Obama announced the shift from combat operations to preparing Iraqi forces to assume responsibility for their own security. Obama made clear in Tuesday’s speech that this was no victory celebration.

A six-month stalemate over forming a new Iraqi government has raised concerns about the country’s stability and questions over whether the leadership can cope with a diminished but still dangerous insurgency.

Newly promoted Army General Lloyd Austin also maintained a somber tone as he took the reins of the some 50,000 American troops who remain in Iraq, with a deadline for a full withdrawal by the end of next year.

He noted "hostile enemies" continue to threaten Iraq and pledged that "our national commitment to Iraq will not change."

"Although challenges remain, we will face these challenges together," Austin said during the ceremony at the opulent al-Faw palace of ousted dictator Saddam Hussein.

Austin, who most recently served in Iraq as commander of troop operations from 2008-09,Discovery Kids got its start when childrens stationery librarian Karen Hathaway made a few discoveries of her own. First, she found that much of the nonfi replaces General Ray Odierno, who is heading to Virginia to take over the Joint Forces Command after about five years in Iraq.

"This period in Iraq’s history will probably be remembered for sacrifice, resilience and change," Odierno said. "However, I remember it as a time in which the Iraqi people stood up against tyranny, terrorism and extremism, and decided to determine their own destiny as a people and as a democratic state."

Vice President Joe Biden, Defense Secretary Robert Gates, and Joint Chiefs Chairman Admiral Mike Mullen presided over the ceremony, which was held at the main US military headquarters on the southwestern outskirts of Baghdad.

Gates, visiting American troops in the Iraqi city of Ramadi yesterday, said history will judge whether the fight was worth it for the US.，Fashion boots，

"The problem with this war, I think,Festival staff members have also examined expenditures and have taken action, from not hiring staff children stationery to not reordering for many Americans, is that the premise on which we justified going to war turned out not to be valid," he said. "Even if the outcome is a good one from the standpoint of the United States, it’ll always be clouded by how it began."

Claiming that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction, then-President George W. Bush ordered the invasion with approval of a Congress still reeling from the 9/11 attacks. Bush’s claims were based on faulty intelligence, and the weapons were never found.

A local smoking-control law came into effect Wednesday in Guangzhou, the capital of south China’s Guangdong Province.

The law covers all of Guangzhou City. There, smoking in most public places, like offices, conference rooms, halls and elevators, is strictly prohibited.

Places of business larger than 150 square meters or having more than 75 seats may designate an area for smokers.

Those who break the law will be fined 50 yuan (about 7.35 U.S.，Australian ugg boots， dollars) and businesses not meeting their obligations will be fined up to 30,000 yuan.

However, some doubt the law is enforceable.

"A quick smoke can take less than one minute. How can an enforcement agency come in such little time?" a different pedestrian asked a Xinhua reporter.Festival staff members have also examined expenditures and have taken action, from not hiring staff children stationery to not reordering

Hu Angang, an economics professor at Tsinghua University, said weak smoking-control in China means measurable goals should be included in the twelfth national development plan.

"Putting goals into the national plan shows great political will from state leaders. So the whole of society, especially local governments, will implement it without hesitation. The plan is a binding document for the government," said Hu.

Shanghai began implementing a regulation to ban smoking in 12 types of public places March 1 in an effort to have a smoke-free World Expo.

Shanghai declined a 200-million-yuan sponsorship deal for the 2010 World Expo from a tobacco company in July 2009.

One of the world’s largest tobacco producing and consuming nations, China manufactures about 100 billion packets of cigarettes each year.

It has a smoking population of 350 million, about one third of the world’s total smoking population.

The tranquility in the air before tropical storm Lionrock’s possible landing on Wednesday night in Guangzhou calmed no one in eastern Guangdong province.

Clouds gather above Taiwan’s Hualien city as tropical storm Lionrock approaches, September 1, 2010.

Huang Shidong, 53, a villager of Jingzhou township in Chaozhou city, was among 30,000 local fishermen who docked their 1,500 boats for the approaching storm.

The eastern corner of the province, where 70 percent of the local income is derived from the fishing industry, is most likely to feel the first strike of the tropical storm, which on Tuesday joined forces with another tropical storm, Namtheun, as well as a typhoon, Kompasu, to threaten South and East China.

Chaozhou city authorities raised their warning for Lionrock to Level 2 on Wednesday, as local officials readied the city for any post-typhoon disaster efforts.The three designer laptop bag styles include a large Tote bag with a quilted laptop section and multiple pockets for girly stuff

Huang, who has fished for 40 years, told China Daily that tropical low pressure systems like those in this current season are the "most evil monsters" for the fishermen working on the South China Sea.

"The power of typhoons in early autumn is terrible on the sea," Huang said.Here’s one for the guys–the Expand-It bags for laptop Messenger bag by BBP Bags. "It can be so strong that it easily devours boats."

The director of Chaozhou city’s water affairs bureau, Zhang Muguang, said one of the biggest concerns for the city is a large amount of rainfall. He added that the typhoon that slammed into the region in 2006 wiped out one-eighth of its annual income.

"Floods and landslides are in the cards following big rains," said Zhang.

Local authorities on Wednesday said tropical storm Lionrock would bring heavy rains and strong gales to Southeast China’s coastal areas, closely following tropical storm Namtheun, which hit East China’s Fujian province on Tuesday night.

According to the Guangdong provincial observatory, tropical storm Lionrock had weakened but was moving quicker at 10 pm on Tuesday, heading toward the coastal cities of Guangdong and Fujian provinces.

Moving at a speed of 83 kilometers per hour, Lionrock is expected to make landfall in the area from Guangdong’s Shanwei city to Fujian’s Xiamen city, late Wednesday or early Thursday, and might strengthen before landing, said Lin Liangxun, forecaster of the observatory.custom engraved stationery; writing instruments; eyewear; leather goods; and, fashion accessories

Lionrock will bring heavy rain to the area from Tuesday to Thursday.

Tropical storm Namtheun made landfall in Hui’an county in Fujian at 11:50 pm on Tuesday and was expected to weaken early Wednesday afternoon.

Meanwhile Typhoon Kompasu is approaching the west sea area of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and is expected to travel at a speed of 25 to 30 kilometers per hour for the next 24 hours, Lin said.

Lionrock lashed Taiwan on Wednesday on its way to the Chinese mainland, bringing heavy rains and howling winds to areas battered by a deadly typhoon just over a year ago as a stronger front churned toward the Korean peninsula.

In Taiwan, authorities have cancelled classes, called off work and set up evacuation space for 19,000 people.
