Traffic police in east China's Hangzhou City were ordered Tuesday to deal strictly with speeders, usually by rich men in the city, after a young man was killed on a pedestrian walkway, sparking public outcry.

Wang Guoping, the city's Party chief, said "the management of a city should guarantee safety and peace for its residents. The young man's death on a downtown crossing showed we were not doing well."

Wang demanded traffic police take every possible measure to fight against speed driving and illegal auto refitting, days after Mayor Cai Qi called the accident "appalling."

Tang Zuo, 25, was hit Thursday evening by a speeding Mitsubishi sports car driven by a 20-year-old university student surnamed Hu. Tang flew five meters into the air before hitting the ground and died.

Friends and colleagues described Tang as a diligent and kind man. He was about to marry his girlfriend in the near future.

Does he already know the victim is too late to be rescued?

Hu is from a rich family that owns four cars and drove a sports car to attend classes in a Hangzhou college, which is not often seen in China.

The Xiang'e Primary School, China's first school with wood-framed buildings in the quake-hit Sichuan Province, will enroll about 540 students in September, officials said Tuesday.

The wood and building technologies for building the school are donated by Canada. Construction is scheduled to be completed in June in Dujiangyan City, one of the worst-hit areas in the 8.0-magnitude earthquake on May 12 last year.

Many students and faculty were buried under the devastated buildings in the school, about 100 km from the epicenter.

Jerry Dickison, an expert in charge of the school project, said wood-framed buildings can withstand strong earthquakes and consume less energy and time than concrete housing structures.

Wood frame structures are flexible, built to resist lateral force and dissipate energy during earthquakes. The buildings are common in North America and Japan, he said.

The Canadian federal government and the provincial government of British Columbia (B.C.) announced last June an 8-million-Canadian-dollar (about 8 million U.S. dollars) project to provide wood frame buildings for communities damaged in the quake in Sichuan.

Three wood-frame projects are underway in the province, including the Xiang'e Primary School in Dujiangyan, a special education school for the disabled in Mianyang City, and an elderly care center in Beichuan County.

Nowadays, people around the world still can't figure out why does superman wear underwear over his pants. They posted many such questions at Yahoo Answers, trying to find out the answer. But Chinese people seems like they are not bothering by this question, they know he is a "funny" - maybe a little bit odd - powerful guy from USA, and he has rights to wear underwear outside, just because he is an American. "He is an alien", old Chinese will tell you that.

But, another "but" is this time old Chinese have to ask themselves a question why young Chinese girl dare to wear underwear outside, even not bother to wear her underwear on her pants.

Obviously, other Chinese people feel shamed to stand in her line, they would rather to spend more time in other line.
