This is my Opinion:

1) Best singer --> Sally Yip (How come nobody vote Sally??? 
                              Her voice is really really nice !!! And one of the 
                              best singing techniques among HK female singer!!)
2) Cutest singer --> Vivian Chow
   Sexiest singer --> Shirley Kwan & Veronica Yip
3) Best all-around performer --> Anita Mui

The answer to your question is probably yes...you are running an out of
date version of unzip or arc.

Available on Magnus, in one of the /pub directories, are dos archive/
pack routines  (ftp magnus).  You can try them.  If you are running
OS/2, ftp to ftp-os2.nmsu.edu and look in /pub/os2/all/archivers.

Beware, however, the Magnus .zip routines are themselves not up to date.
They do not reflect changes made by Info-Zip in November.

Complain to CONSULT if it turns out to be a problem for you too.

-Jim

NB: the best DOS machine is one running OS/2!

I completely agree with Mr. Leung. All people should feel free to have their 
own personal preference. I have read the news posted by Mr. Leung. He only 
stated that Vivian Chow is pretty; he didn't give any bad comments about 
others. So, no one should be hurt. I don't see why Mr. Alan Chong will turn out 
to be so mad about this. Anyway, insulting other people with these dirty words
is not funny and acceptable; especially it is from a University student but 
not a kid.

There are a lot of domains here.  cpsc.ucalgary.ca will only give you

Originator: ez007164@chip.ucdavis.edu

Hey y'all!

   First things first.  Wished all of ya out there "Sun Lin Fai
Lok!"  Well, just got a few things to say about the "heavenly
scriptures."  I do agree that they are difficult to read, but
they were never intended to be read like a story.  It was meant
to be used while listening to the song, whatever that song
may be.  Then, the romanizations would come more naturally.  
Yes, we are chinese, but that doesn't necessarily mean all
chinese can read and write the language.  That's the objective
of these "heavenly scriptures" - to help those who can't read
chinese and further enhance the pleasure of listening to music. 
I don't know about others, but I enjoy my music more if I know
the lyrics and can sing along.  Regarding the use of big-5 and
njstar, yes, that would be cool.  So for those that are skilled
and familiar with big-5 and njstar, they could contribute that
way.  Finally, if these "heavenly scriptures" help just one
individual, that is enough.  For those who prefer not to read
these postings, there is always the 'n' key.  Well, that's enough
out of my mouth.  Once again, "Gung Hei Faat Choi" and "Lai Si
Dau Loi?!?!?!"  Any comments or requests of romanizations (esp.
Andy Lau Duk Wah or even Aaron Kwok Fu Sing, maybe?!  Dunno much
mandarin though, hmmm...) are welcomed at 

                    mhwoo@ucdavis.edu 

C ya!  Hope all of you will get plenty of "lai si!"  Care to
share any with me? :D

	My friend had opened a Chinese grocery store in Albany.
Because the business was poor, he has to close his store. He
still have 2 1/2 year left on the lease.  The problem is the
landlord would not break the lease unless there are compensations.
Nothing against people from Greece, but this landlord is a
real jerk. My friend is the store president in name, but he has
a daily job.

1) Is it true that the landlord can sue my friend's salary for
compensation until the lease expire or a new renter for that lot?

2) There was a talk of some form of agreement that if the landlord
willing to break the lease immedately (at January).

	1)My friend must pay a year of commission to the realtor.
	about $1900. Also, he must pay next two months of rent,
	Feb. and March. about $2600. In addition, the landlord gets
	to keep the $2000 deposit.

Would it be cheaper to file bankcy or pay the agreement on 2?
Also, how does bankcy work in NY state? What are the protections
to small business owner?
