Glad you're doing well, Billy. We've missed your pictures but we've missed you even more.
What was the Jade Eared Gold He used for? For royalty? For rich people? For clergy? For special ceremonies or special dinners, rather than everyday, I guess.

Thank you a lot.
There was not more information for the vessel in the musem. It was found from one rich people's tomb. Probably it was for wine drinking or for religionary ceremony.

Welcome back Billy! I've missed you and your fine pictures of China, a land I unfortunately know little about.

I hope to visit there one day.

Sky - very nice, can we have a caption?

Billy - any word on the Games, the Free Tibet movement or any of that? Or best for you to steer clear?

We're doing a lot of work with the British Chinese community on the handover (of the cultural Olympiad in September) so I'm immersed in it at present. except I can't claim a balanced viewpoint as they are all ex-pats.

Lobby of the Gerding Theater at the Armory

Portland, Oregon 97209
United States

The Gerding Theater at the Armory has been awarded the LEED Platinum designation from the US Green Building Council, the highest sustainable design award available for a building in the United States. With this award it becomes the first building on the National Register of Historic Places to achieve Platinum status. It is also the first performing arts facility, and the first historic building on the west coast, to be so designated.
