| China to tackle 'gutter oil' |
中國(guó)向地溝油“宣戰(zhàn)” |
| Special campaigns will be carried out in Sept. and Oct. to eradicate "gutter oil" which can cause cancer, according to a circular issued Monday by the State Council. Gutter oil, usually made from refined kitchen waste, was once commonly used by small restaurants, according to media reports. The campaign will target places where gutter oil is produced as well as small restaurants and school cafeterias. Catering establishments which use the illegal oil could face punishments ranging from suspension of operations to revocation of their business licenses. |

About 3 million people turned a portion of the A40 Autobahn where cars normally cruise at speeds of 160 kph or more into one of the biggest open-air festivals in Germany's history on July 18. 60 km of the busy highway between the western German cities of Dortmund and Duisburg were closed to motorists so pedestrians, cyclists, skaters and picnickers could participate in what organizers called "the longest banquet in the world." The event called "Still Life" was part of celebrations for the Ruhr region Cultural Capital of Europe 2010.
