July 01 Fabulous Dragon StoneBy staff reporter Wu Bing There is a Chinese saying, "Gold is expensive but jade is priceless." In other words, gold represents wealth and jade elegance. Gold inlaid with jade traditionally symbolizes happy marriage. This precious combination in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games medal design conveys the host city's respect for the games and best wishes to Olympic athletes. Depleted raw materials and rising market demand over past decades have sent jade prices sky-high. First-class Hotan white jade could be bought in the late 1970s for RMB 100 per kg. By 1995 this price had rocketed to RMB 6,000, and by 2000 soared to RMB 10,000. Its current price is RMB one million per kg. The upward trend in the jade market still continues. But this opulence is dwarfed by the even more precious Myanmar Jade, which sells at 10-100 times the price of white jade.
A dragon made of Hotan Jade. Jade has been treasured in China for more than 7,000 years, and often features in historical legends. One, during the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), tells of a jade craftsman named Bian He from the State of Chu. One day he saw a phoenix perching on a rock. Convinced that this fabulous bird would stand only on the most precious of stones, he presented the rock to King Li of Chu. Royal craftsman, however, assessed it as nothing out of the ordinary. The angry king punished Bian He for what he construed as an attempt to fool him by having the craftsman's left foot cut off. When King Li died, Bian He once again presented the stone to the king's son and successor King Wu. But the new king's craftsman also deemed the stone commonplace, and Bian He lost his right foot as punishment. When King Wu died and his son succeeded the throne as King Wen, Bian He retreated to the foot of the mountain and cried for three days and nights, holding the stone. When the new king sent his attendant to find out why, Bian He told him, "I cry not because I have been crippled, but because jade is deemed stone, a loyal subject is adjudged a charlatan, and an innocent is humiliated." King Wen thereupon ordered that the stone be split open. The piece of perfect jade exposed at its heart was named He's Jade. Many vassal states fought over the precious He's Jade, and the State of Zhao eventually won possession of it. The rising Qin kingdom, however, offered to trade 15 cities for the jade in 283 BC, and Zhao agreed, but mainly for fear of the Qin's overwhelming strength. "As worthy as a cluster of cities" hence became a common idiom. Qin craftsmen carved an imperial seal out of the jade which the last Qin emperor presented to the conqueror Liu Bang, first emperor of the Han Dynasty (206 BC - AD 220). Amid the imperial infighting at the end of the Han Dynasty, a corner of the seal was broken. Craftsmen later mended it in gold, thus creating the craft of jade and gold inlay, the Beijing Olympics medal design. The Five Virtues of Jade There are around 100 types of stones that qualify as jade. According to Shuo Wen Jie Zi (Explanation and Study of Principles of Composition of Characters), the earliest Chinese dictionary compiled by Xu Shen during the Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220), "Jade, the beauty among stones, embodies five virtues." In other words, the only beautiful stones that may be called jade are those with five virtues. But criteria on which to judge whether or not a stone is beautiful, or beautiful enough to be called a jade, have changed with the development of society, production capacities, ideologies and aesthestic standards, and market demands. Stones formerly used for burning lime, laying roads or building houses now qualify as jade by virtue of their fine texture or historical background. Uncut jade can be polished or processed to bring it up to a satisfactory standard. Gradation is linked to the degree of processing. A Grade-A emerald, for example, is one that has been cut, carved and polished but whose color and innate substance remain unaltered. An emerald that has been washed in acid or alkali and reconstituted with synthetic resin is of Grade B, specifically classified in the market as a washed or bathed emerald "after bleaching and reconstitution." Dyed emeralds are Grade C, known as coated or clothed emeralds. Evaluation standards include color, transparency, structure, purity, cutting workmanship and weight.
Grade A emeralds with a glass-like transparency. The Chinese character for emerald, feicui, is the same as that for kingfishers, the red male called fei and the green female the cui. Natural emeralds are also either green or red, hence their Chinese name. Emeralds came into Chinese favor in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, when they suddenly became regarded as the finest of all jade. The Confucian school highly commends the five virtues of jades, comparing them with the five virtues of the "true man." The luster of jade symbolizes benevolence, its transparency justice, its tone wisdom, its solidity courage, and its whorled fractures honesty and self-restraint. Those who love jade should be "true men" and confine their behavior according to the five virtues. Everyday Jade Jade was a predominant feature of old Chinese society, as apparent in decorative articles, household utensils, and sacrificial vessels in well-to-do homes. Accessory jades were particularly popular, as in addition to its moral connotations, jade was also believed to be a powerful amulet. The customs of millennia became fashionable in the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties, particularly in the Ming when jade became a feature of the court dress. That worn by the emperor, empress, other members of the royal family and court officials denoted rank. Ming Dynasty jade accessories extant are mainly jade belts and hooks. During Qing times there was a wider scope that included sachets, flat hairpins, knuckle shields and belt hooks. The knuckle shield, originally a crossbow accessory, hooked on to the thumb. The most popular styles featured double-fish, heart or animal designs. Jade ornaments today are generally in the form of jewelry, such as bracelets and pendants. Hotan Jade and emeralds are most desirable in the current market, closely followed by Xiuyan Jade, Dushan Jade, lazurite and turquoise. Hotan Jade takes its name from its place of origin – Hotan in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, but is also found in Qinghai, Sichuan, Liaoning, Gansu and Taiwan provinces, as well as in Russia, Poland, Germany, the U.S., Canada and New Zealand. The best outside China is found in Russia.
A Hotan Jade decorated with dragons. The features that best distinguish Hotan Jade are its color and texture. There are white, green, blue, black, yellow, brown and flowery jades. The smoothest and most transparent is white jade, also called suet white jade. Hotan Jade is in huge demand on the market, but excessive exploitation threatens its continued supply.

June 17 多情应笑我，早生华发June 16 10 Things People Won't Tell You When You Lose Your JobYou can wallow, or see your job loss as an opportunity for self-discovery.By Ariane de Bonvoisin
The first 30 days after a job loss will no doubt be filled with fear, anxiety and impatience. You might hear experts talk about the importance of updating your resume, leaning on your network of contacts and even starting that hobby you always wanted to try. Here, Ariane de Bonvoisin, author of The First 30 Days: Your Guide to Making Any Change Easier, shares some tips for coping with a job loss that people won’t necessarily tell you about.
1. Give yourself some real time to figure out your next step. That may mean weeks, not a few hours! Don't feel compelled to jump right back into the work force. You will feel some shock—the same way you would feel shock after any loss. Take some time to deal with that. When you are ready to jump back in, keep your options open. This might be a good time to explore a new field that you've always wanted to try but never had the time to, start a business, or go back to school.  When looking for a job online, expand your horizons and don't limit your search to where you live.
2. The next job you take may be a transitional one. Whether it's full or part time, embrace it. Every experience is a valuable one and you never know where it may lead. It's OK to freelance or find part-time work to get some cash flow until you find the perfect new position. In fact, you may find that you don't need a full-time job as much as you thought you did to be happy and secure.
3. Look for companies, not jobs, and change the way you apply. Find companies with missions and values that you can get behind. Employers are much more interested in candidates who have a passion for the company than someone who is just looking for a paycheck. Remember, your resume and cover letter are not unique. With the huge number of layoffs today, there are likely to be many more people you have to compete against for a single position. You have to find new skills and new selling points in your abilities to highlight on your resume and your social networking pages. Your reputation and your online persona play much more of a role in getting you a new job than your resume or your cover letter ever could. Your profiles on Facebook, MySpace and LinkedIn should be spruced up and optimized as much as possible to make you as attractive as you can be to a potential employer. And don't forget to Google yourself to see what comes up. 4. Celebrate—maybe even take a vacation. You probably didn't take time away while you were at your last job—use this period of adjustment to break free. It'll give you a chance to get some perspective. Have drinks or a party and celebrate being laid off. Put a positive spin on this. Enjoy yourself. This will be one of the few times in life that you're unencumbered by work. Read. Sleep. Do all the things you never get to do...believe it or not, you'll miss this time when it's gone. 5. Use your health insurance while you still have it. I bet you haven't been taking care of yourself or haven't had the time. Get a full physical, go to the dentist. You can also explore meditation, acupuncture, or other complimentary therapies that can help you de-stress. Finding your next dream job is an endurance test and requires a lot of energy. Start eating well, do a cleanse, and go to the gym. Your energy and self-esteem will get a boost and this will be felt by everyone around you, including future employers. 6. Realize that something good will come from this (I call this The Change Guarantee). Write it down somewhere visible. In the end, this job loss is probably a good thing. Make yourself write a list of 3 things that help you see the upside from this downside. You'll end up better off, no matter what. You may not see it now, but you'll triumph over this job loss in ways you couldn't imagine. 7. Don’t rehash the story, blame something or someone for the loss or explain it to everyone ad nauseam. Blame never accomplishes anything. Don’t get addicted to your story: Why you got fired or how unlucky you are. It will hold you back. There is no shame or embarrassment to be had. Every successful person has lost a job at some stage. Instead of feeling shame, honor this as just a life change that will make you stronger. Stick around optimistic people, not victim circles. Ask yourself, "Who are you not thinking of that can help you?" And also, "Who is holding you back?" 8. Always frame things in the positive. Say things like "I'm excited I'm back in the job market. It has given me a chance to really go after a job that I love," as opposed to, "I recently got fired/lost my job." People who are optimists and have positive beliefs will always get through this change better than others. 9. Let go of the way life should have gone. Resisting the job loss causes more pain. Sometimes you know why you were fired, sometimes you just don't. Don't waste any time figuring it out. Be mature about anything you feel may have contributed to it. See the difference between reality and illusion (reality is you lost your job, illusion is you'll never find another job.) Take a moment to go inside yourself, get silent and listen to your intuition. Some of your best ideas will come when you slow down enough and tune in. 10. Looking for a job is now your job. It may take a lot longer to find a new job than you think it will. Many people are running out their unemployment benefits, taking six months or more to find a new job. You might have to settle for less. We're in a tough economic climate and the dream job you want might not be available for the next few years. Some jobs leave the market and never come back, and you may be facing that reality. Don't get discouraged. Remember, even in a bad economy, there are always jobs for good people. Plus:
8 Job-Hunting SecretsA handful of practical tips to guide you in your job search.By Ariane de Bonvoisin
1. Pull all your contacts and catalogue all those loose business cards. You never know. Something may spark an idea. Send them an email.
2. Get some blank business cards made with your name, email and contact information. 3. There are strict deadlines for Cobra and health insurance. Make sure you're aware of these. Too many people miss them. 4. Check out unemployment benefits, regardless of your situation or salary. You never know. There are many people who are eligible who never claim useful benefits. 5. Make sure visas and work permits are all in order if applicable. 6. See a financial advisor. Even if you can't afford to keep someone on retainer, most mutual funds and banks will give you a free consultation. Free websites like mint.com will help you keep track of finances as well. 7. Send a thank you note to your boss and colleagues that you enjoyed working with, and ask them to keep you top-of-mind if they hear of any positions you'd be right for. 8. Write down what you are looking for and what your intention is. Make your list. Read it every day. Intention is a very strong force.
