China High-speed Rail's D3115 Train has mortal accident at Shuangyu Section near Wenzhou 23rd July 2011 around 20:34.

Traffic crawls along Zhongguancun Street during Wednesday evening rush hour. The city's traffic authority said traffic jams have eased.

Private car owners might have to accept higher charges as the city's traffic authority plans to further improve public transport and reduce the use of vehicles to ease traffic congestion.

Liu Xiaoming, director of the Beijing Municipal Commission of Transport, suggested in a report to the Beijing Municipal People's Congress that the city adopt "both economic and administrative measures" to further reduce the use of private cars and divert private car owners to public transport.

Liu said this should be the city's "primary policy target" in solving traffic congestion.

On the surface, Liu Hao seemed like an ideal candidate to become someone's romantic partner when he appeared on one of the many popular dating shows in China.

The 39-year-old music teacher wooed the show's audience, which sat entranced before a performance featuring his songbird voice, and won fans as he duked it out against a competing bachelor by energetically performing the running-man dance to techno music. Liu's wide grin reflected his confidence.
