EastSouthNorthWest has transcribed a list of <a href="http://www.zonaeuropa.com/02038.htm" title="EastSouthNorthWest weblog">Modern Chinese History in Words</a>, which reminds me of my own <a href="http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/~takoyaki/zh/" title="China, Shanghai, Books weblog">Modern Chinese Political Phrases & Slogans</a> page.  I've been meaning to expand it for a while now, just haven't given it priority.

Also, <a href="http://journalism.berkeley.edu/projects/chinadn/en/archives/003467.html" title="China Digital News: Bootlegging Clinton in China">a post</a> on the China Digital News weblog today has excerpts from a New York Times article on bootlegging of the Clinton book in China.  I've asked for prices on this book three times because it is one of the rare translations that is available from pirate booksellers in both English and Chinese versions.  The prices I was offered were RMB 40 (武宁新村 area), 60 (down the street from my house, on 曹杨 Road) and 150 (in 五角场 with Asa).
