2. 44 thousand diplomas for examinees who will attend adult college entrance examination to be re-censored;

A new line of condoms is grabbing headlines in China even as its sparks a debate about trademark law and promotion campaigns. The products' brand names: "Clinton" and "Lewinsky."The condoms are sold in boxes of 12, with the brand named after former President Bill Clinton priced at $3.70 and that of former White House intern Monica Lewinsky at $2.25.
Guangzhou Haojian Bioscience Co. said it registered both trademarks and is pricing the brands differently to reflect the higher quality of the Clinton line.
"We chose the name because we think Clinton is a symbol of success and a man of responsibility. And Lewinsky is a woman who dares to love and dares to hate," said Liu Wenhua, the company's general manager.
Clinton has already been used as the 'celebrity spokesman' in a series of dodgy advertisements for a real estate development in Beijing. He was previously also offered two million US dollars to act as brand representative for a Chinese clothing manufacturer. The surname of George W. Bush, on the other hand, might become the name of a diaper brand in the near future: a man from Henan Province has applied to register the Chinese rendering of 'Bush' (bu shi) as a trademark for diapers, because it is a pun on the words 'not wet'.
Danwei has started a section of listings about free wireless Internet access. The first location is Shanghai: Danwei guide to free wireless in Shanghai. Unlike most free wi fi listings websites, this guide has been compiled and checked by a real human being with a laptop.
Please email jeremy -at- danwei.org if you have suggestions of other places that should be mentioned. A guide to Beijing's free wireless venues will be published soon. Danwei is also looking for writers to compile free wireless guides to Changsha, Chengdu, Chongqing, Dalian, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Shenyang, Shenzhen, Suzhou, Xiamen and other cities.
