Bill, 
	The new CRX is not very good.  It is agressive enough and not powerful 
enough.  It looks more like a "fun car" rather that a pace car.  Does it use 
a VTEC?  Anyone knows?  I remember that Honda put a VTEC in last version of 
CRX.  There was a picture in some issue of Hong Kong car magazine "car owner". 
	I read from some European car magazine that the new version CRX has 
been around there for one or two years!  Is there anyone in Europe can tell me? 
Is it the same as the version in the US?  
	Bill I hope you have fun driving in AU and get to  
202kph (202kph*0.62 = 125mph) someday!

A & B are doomed. They will only add to the divorce stats. A is wish-washy &
cannot face up to his responsibilities. Too many lies & deceptions. Why?
If B really loves A, and A really loves B (enough to get married), why can't
A, B & C sit down at the same table and have it all out in the open. That's
what A should've done in the very beginning!! And if A really loves C instead
of B, then A will only hurt B in the end. May be not today, may be not tomorrow,
but sooner or later, A will find some fault in B, that B is not as good as C.
A wants to have "one foot in two boat". Frankly, I don't think A is mature
enough to know what the hell love is!

Ok...sorry for that test message before..as you can see I am new.....

	As it has already been mentioned before, many guys and girls coming
over from Hong Kong to study seldom have any friends outside of their study
group. To join a Christian fellowship is one of the best ways of meeting
new friends and generally people who are willing to lend a hand when you
are in need. From what I hear from my friends (as I came over from Malaysia
with my family and thus am just an outside observer), initially when they 
come only very little is known about Australia. Through friends which in 
this case, were Christians, the settling in period was made much more
confortable. They helped him do such things as looking for accomodation,
house-moving and generally just introducing them to new friends.

	Also, BTW if you haven't noticed yet, foreigners tend to seek a
sense of security through a close communion of similar people. I suppose
a fellowship is similar, it allows you to mix with people from "back home" and to share God's glory with them.

	Also another friend thought he was a Christian back in Macua where
he went through the rituals of a Roman Catholic upbringing, but it was only
when he came to Australia to study that he found a true relation with God.
Through going to church, fellowship discussions and just maybe some other
experiences as a newcomer to Australia, he was able to understand more
about God than he had ever been able to do back home.

	In my personal experience, I looked towards the Christian group
The Navigators for a new direction in my life. I was dissatisifed with
the way my life was leading and generally just wanted to change my
direction in life. As soon as I got to know them better, I have already
lost that sense of loneliness and am meeting more friends every week.

	Ok that is enough babbling from me...I cannot talk about it
too much as I am also a new "child of God"....and feeling very happy about 
it too!! Feel free to mail me, but no flames please about this type of
article getting into schk...unless a new thread is open for overseas
Christian discussion (sorry if one already exists!!) I think this is
the best place to put this kind of discussion. God Bless...and see ya
around...

given, she is a good-looking actress, but she cant really act.  all she has

she has too many of the same type of roles, like she always spins her head 
and her hair flies in her facew.  come on, how many times have you seen 
this?  it was cool for the first three or four movies, but after about ten

I think sons, daughters etc of the old revolutionaries not necessary very
bad. But the number we found in Chinese now is abuse. 10th Oct is more
importent because it really change the style of our country. We thrown
away the belive, which lasted for few thousand years that we must have 
an empiror. During the short period under direct rule of KMT (acutally,
no more than 11 years, after north-east "change flag" until anti-Japenese
war, 1945 until totally defeated), ROC did established the basic structure
a moden country should have, the election system etc even it did not
carry it out completely. But everybody know that it is there and have a
goal to fight for. 1st Oct is great for CCP, but not greater than 10th Oct 
for China. (a sideline, why should CCP still putting Dr. Sun's picture

I don't mean to pick on anyone, but I think this kind of discussion should
be allowed on schk.  Unlike previous discussions about religion, they
were not necessarily related to Hong-Kong Chinese.  Therefore, most of us
encouraged those people to move the discussion to soc.religion.christian.  
This time, however, the author of the previous article explicitly talks
about Hong Kong Chinese and (Hong Kong) Chinese Christian Fellowship/Church.
So, I think this discussion is relevant to schk, and should not be
discouraged (of course--let's hope people wont take this too far).  

Think about it: if we didn't discourage discussions regarding color wolves,
chasing women and music, why should we discourage talks about religion??
(especially since this concerns the original poster, and is relevant to
schk...)

If it really bothers you, please make a kill file.

Yours sincerely,
Kelvin

I am a Penn student from Macao. I'd like to make some pen friends over the
Internet. If you are from Macao or if you have any connection with this
beautiful city, please feel free to write to me. Please use E-Mail and
do not reply through the news group. Thanks.

Hi Lonely Hearts,

	We are very happy that Dr. Sleeping Beauty joins to our club as
a 3rd host.  She is also a only female host.  So far as we concern, a female
host is necessary, because you netters will like to have advices from both
male and female, we reckon.

	Our first 'Weekly Love Story' would be released next week, don't miss
it.

	Also, we have to thank for your supports and please go on, we are
looking forward to you.
