I was on the chang jiang (I believe americans call it the yangtze river) a couple of years ago. When?

Question by Da Ben Dan: I was on the chang jiang (I believe americans call it the yangtze river) a couple of years ago. When?
is the expected completion date? Is it now partially operational…It was quite an impressive structure when I saw it ,albeit incomplete…I know there were some concerns of the weight of the water held back in such a seismologically active area….is all of this now resolved?
Has the water level in the 3 gorges risen by how much? any info ..thanx

Best answer:

Answer by NeuroProf
The Three Gorges Dam is ready to hold water on June 1 as scheduled. The water is supposed to reach 135 meters in 15 days. During this period, the water rising will exert some influence on the navigation-
This is from a website detailing the project:
I will say that this website is a bit of cheerleading- the seismic worries are not resolved, and cannot really be any more than those same worries in the San Andreas Fault.

Question by Jane D: Transporting my dog from China to Canada..?
Hi everyone,
Ok heres the situation..

I live in China right now and have adopted a dog here, and not just a small dog but a Siberian Husky.
Now my dilemma is this.. I’m moving home to Canada,BC sometime between September and December.
I have read many horror stories of flying dogs oin cargo on airplanes.. and am really scared to risk that. Not to mention it would be a 13 hour flight.
What other options do I have?? I was thinking a cruise maybe.. but I’ve emaied a bunch of cruises and can’t find any from china- canada, and especially any that allow large dogs!

Please help!!! I love him like a son and don’t want to leave him behind!!

Is Croatian Visa needed for Taiwan (Republic of China) passport traveller?

Question by Juana: Is Croatian Visa needed for Taiwan (Republic of China) passport traveller?
I am holding a Taiwan (Republic of China) passport, I will join a Carnival cruise to arrive Dubrovnik 7am and leave 7pm the same day; do I need a visa to enter to Croatia? If yes, since this is only a one-day visit, do you think Carnival can work as a “guarantor ” for me to have a sort of “land permission” temporary visa? Thanks a million for the quick answer.
Tks very much for the prompt answer.I even learned that Permanent Resident like me can apply this visa ON LINE (on the website you provided). But I am a ‘will-to-be’ Carnival Cruise traveler. The ship will arrive Dubrovnik, Croatia 7am and leave at 7pm the same day. For this short visit, do I still need a visa? 0r, cruise line can be a sort of ‘Guarantor’ for me to embark on “land permission” basis (give by Croatia Customs)??
Taiwan doesn’t have diplomatic ties with Croatia and papers have to be sent to Japan for process, this is the study I made so far. Unfortunately my travel agent couldn’t answer me whether the cruise line could work as a ‘guarantor’ for me to obtain a ‘landing permission’; and I haven’t heard from Carnival Cruise either on this issue. I am putting my question on “Cruise Travel” under YAHOO ANSWERS to solicit more answers.

Answer by bla bla
Taiwan is not mentioned on the official site of the Croatian foreign office site where you can check if a Visa is required http://www.mfa.hr/MVP.asp?pcpid=1615

According to a 3rd party site the visa is required http://croatia.visahq.com/requirements/Taiwan/

Therefore it is best if you check at the local embassy for the official confirmation but in my opinion I think you would most certainly need a visa and there would not be an alternative. Documents are carefully checked on the Croatian borders & aiports

There is no Croatian embassy in Taiwan but this means that your area will be under the cover of a embassy in a neighbouring country – here you can see all the possibilities and if you click on the country you can get the address & other contact details http://croatia.visahq.com/embassy/Taiwan/

EDIT – I can’t say for sure so it is best that you check directly either with the embassy or if you have made the booking for the cruise with a travel agents then they should be able to advise as well – this *could* be classed as a transit visa and therefore different requirements apply, but as it is still within Croatian territory again I doubt it. Either way it is best to check officially

Can US win a war against China?

Question by pczhoucotdt: Can US win a war against China?
China has S-300 anti-aircraft missiles and HQ-9 (version of Patriot missile developed from alleged Israeli technology transfers in the 1980s). well, China has been producing J-10 (version of F-16 from Israeli technology) and J-11B (Su-27 equipped with dual chinese made WS-10A engines). Stealth fighters like the F-22 Raptor can still be shot down if you can see it. For instance, I have a shotgun and I see a bird so I can shoot it down. Stealth fighters are only undetectable to radars not cannons and lasers. Recently, China has been purchasing advanced Russian weapons like Kilo submarines (equipped with Klub missiles designed to hit aircraft carriers), Sovremenny destroyers, Vympel missiles, Shkval torpedoes, and Su-30 twin seat fighters. China is going to build a aircraft carrier in 2010 and has be actively producing type 052C (version of Aegis destroyer) and Type 052B destroyer. China has the DH-10 land cruise missile with a accuracy of 10 meters and Pl-12 missiles capable of Mach 4.

Answer by daddybear
Isn’t this the river that the Chinese have built a massive hydro-electric dam project on ?
if it is there may be a serious oxygen depletion problem in the water as it is being held back.
