I found the story about this 11 year old girl fascinating..Golf is a difficult game to learn. Even harder to learn how to play well. Just Google her name..fascinating!

Lucy Li -- an 11-year-old girl from Silicon Valley -- has become the youngest golfer to qualify for the U.S. Women's Open by winning the sectional qualifier at Half Moon Bay in California.

And her coach, Jim McLean, thinks the grade-school girl with braces and a hard swing from Redwood Shores will be “No. 1 in the world real soon. She’s a prodigy, even though I didn’t think so at first."

Li, who moved to California from Hong Kong, has been training with McLean at the Jim McLean Golf Schools in Florida since she was 7.

McLean said that while she plays golf with him for four months out of the year, her father, Warren Li, a computer consultant, and her mother, Amy Zeng, who works at Hewlett Packard, remain at home in Silicon Valley.

She's pretty tall for an eleven year old. I couldn't even drive a golf ball to save my own life.:p

I really like golf. but could never master the basics. . And I was young with no belly. :) Look at her form during her swing. Excellent.This young woman has a great career ahead of her if she sticks with the game of golf.

Well, I post these photos to show my dissatisfaction of the current human. Where have all their intuitive knowledge gone? This is not a lone event of such cases which happen in China.

because in China too many old people intentionally cause scenes like this to prey on innocent bystanders who are willing to help for monetary payments by accusing the them to be the causes of their "injuries". and because of this, people in china tend to stay away from such events, despite the feel of wanting to help.

I wonder why the country don't change its laws. Shenzhen have created a new law stating proof must be shown or obtained before you can accuse someone and have them pay compensation. When I was in China this year, I saw on the news that some organization have created a website that accept donation to help the victims of false accusation to fight it in court, and even if they loose, they help pay the compensation. This kind of incident have caused people to go suicidal due the depression.

That's good and all, but than again who's keeping an eye on the organization? There are some (not all) organizations like that preys on people's sympathy that exploits them for money. So basically like everything in life, one just have keep a watchful eye and use good judgement when it comes to donation or helping out others.

I dont know the real answer, but I believe that the reason why the government has not introduced any new or changes to its current laws is that they are working on a bigger picture that includes the gradual increase of social welfare and general economic levels. by doing so such events will happen less often, since people are living better. this is just my thoughts.

Could these photos be staged by animal rights activist to draw attention to the slaughter of dogs in Guizhou province? Never the less the situation is real . I saw some very graphic photos on sina of the slaughter of dogs.
