The conflagration began in the evening and roared on for 11 hours. Despite construction originally beginning in 1995, the Jianye Building on Qiyi Lu was still unfinished when it went up in flames, after work was suspended more than a decade ago. Perhaps due to this fact, there were no reported casualties, though there were plenty of photos circulating on the Internet, as people jumped online to warm up the winter weather with images of a hearty blaze.

China Daily reports a 10-square-meter booth was constructed in Shenzhen, where parents can place unwanted children anonymously. The safe haven is equipped with an incubator, air conditioner, crib, bedding and alarm. Motion sensors will trigger the alarm when a baby is placed in the booth, notifying workers in the adjacent Welfare Center. No security cam- eras will be installed, in an effort to ensure privacy for the parents. Some fear that the new program will increase the number of cases of abandonment, as parents will have less anxiety knowing the baby will be cared for immediately. Guangzhou is also scheduled to implement the scheme in 2014 at its Children’s Social Welfare Home. At the time of publication, one infant had been left in Shenzhen.

n Chinese folklore, horses in ancient times had wings and were called tianma (天马), or 'sky horses.' Galloping, flying or swimming, they were so powerful that there seemed no limit to what they could do. Favored and spoiled by the Jade Emperor, the sky horse gradually became insufferably arrogant and imperious. One day, he flew out of the sky palace and tried to break into the Dragon King’s palace in the ocean, but ended up kicking the turtle guardian to death. The Jade Emperor was so angry at the sky horse Ithat he gave an order to cut his wings off and have him imprisoned under Mount Kunlun for 300 years. After 200 years, a human ancestor passed by the mountain and heard the horse lament how regretful he was, saying that he wished to come to the human world and work for them. Out of sympathy, he freed the horse from under the mountain and brought him to the human world. As promised, the horse plowed and was burdened, saddled and armored, bearing all kinds of hardship without complaint. From then on, the horse became a very good friend to mankind and was elected as one of the candidates for the 12 animal horoscopes. The Jade Emperor was moved by the horse's penance too, and allowed it to become part of the astrological pantheon.

In November, we interviewed legendary Italian football coach Marcello Lippi ahead of Guangzhou Evergrande’s triumph in the AFC Champions League. But Lippi is not the only star name in a Guangzhou hot seat as players return to pre-season training this month. With the new campaign fast approaching, we caught up with former England boss Sven Goran Eriksson as he aims to make Guangzhou R&F serious challengers to their city rivals.

he has managed the Mexican national team, won league titles in Portugal and Italy and even had brief spells in Bangkok and, most recently, Dubai. So what made him swap the Middle East for the Far East?

“Football is bigger and better in China,” he explains. “In Dubai I was a sports director, but I am not a desk man. I like to be out on the pitch.

圣经道教可兰经

基督伊斯兰天主

Rapid economic growth and greater openness have increased China’s exposure to the rest of the world and brought with it the likes of Louis Vuitton, Burberry, Ferrari, Starbucks and gold iPhones as part of a clear cultural shift towards the religion of spending. Despite this, the growing magnetism of prayer and worship evidences that Chinese people are searching for something beyond the mighty lure of the yuan. In Guangdong alone, nearly 10 percent of the population is Buddhist, while the nationwide number of Christians is estimated to be between 20 and 100 million.

Unlike the Western world, the flocks of all major belief systems are growing in China, as people turn to ancient texts to make sense of the modern world. Amid the orgy of spending and era of cultural cynicism, faith acts as an antidote to the empty, insatiable cycle of materialism. It can be a stabilizing force amid the socioeconomic turbulence that leaves many behind, bewildered at the pace of change. A sense of community based on a higher authority comforts and helps transcend an increasingly fragmented urban landscape.
