Watch out for this one folks...
Alibaba, China's largest search engine, may be trying to stage a takeover of Yahoo. The prospect raises thorny issues — not only because of Yahoo's stormy relationship with its subsidiary — but because of China's checkered history using communications infrastructure for hacking, as well as monitoring the activities of its own citizens.

I just threw up in my mouth. So I just had to change banks and now I have to change my email? Where is that cave I've been looking for!
the world is closing in on us.
Oh yeah. So you ready to pack it in and run away?
Sorry, not the world.....China. Better start sprucing up on your Chinese you are going to need it. Ni hou.
It disgusts me that kids in public schools are now learning mandarin! Why not just send them an open invitation to take us over?
Doesn't disgust me. They should learn Arabic as well. That is the direction the world is going. To not learn about others in the world will only result in us turning in on ourselves which would result in even more populism and nationalistic ferver, which would result in the US becoming very much like Nazi Germany.
Dan, kids should learn another language, I agree, however I take offense to mandarin because the reasoning is the future business world will speak chinese. WTF? Does someone know for sure? Not only that, its a fact that when kids learn a language and don't use it, they lose it. Where the hell are they going to practice mandarin, much less speak it enough to retain it? A huge waste of my tax dollars! Given in just a few years this country will be 51% hispanic, I think spanish would be the more appropriate language.
