But it doesn’t mean marriage is dead. It just means
that marriage is no longer the only place where people make all their
major financial and personal decisions, or incur obligations to others,” Coontz said.
“First of all, I haven’t met my Mr. Right. Also, I’m extremely responsible with my own finances – I have to pay my rent and my stud
ent loans every month,” said Michelle Yu, a recent graduate of the University of Southern California, who just s
tarted her first job at a publishing company in Los Angeles. Yu has been single for more than four years.
“So, if my partner also has a ton of student loans or is in a bad financial situation, I’d r
ather be alone,” said Yu. “Now, I can well manage my own money and I’m saving the down payment for bu
ying an apartment in my neighborhood. I like to do that on my own pace.”

Experts said that injuries to firefighters are mainly caused by close contact with flames or explos
ions, or by buildings collapsing as they enter a scene that fire engines have difficulty accessing.
Russia and Germany have also transformed old tanks into firefighting vehicles.
China’s poverty-relief achievements have contributed more than 70 percent to global pover
ty alleviation in the past four decades, a feat acknowledged by the United Nations and the World Bank.
China lifted 740 million people in rural areas out of poverty be
tween 1978 and 2017, or about 19 million people each year, according to the National Bureau of Statis
tics. The country had another 30 million people to lift out of abject poverty, according to the figures.
In 2018, official data showed that 13.86 million people were lifted out of poverty. The go
vernment aims to help another 20 million people in the next two years, in order to eradicate poverty in the country.
Bank of Beijing planning venture with Dutch lender NV at a bra
Bank of Beijing Co Ltd said on Friday that it has got the necessary board approvals for the estab
lishment of a joint venture with Netherlands-based ING Bank NV, in which the latter will be the majority partner.
With a total investment of 3 billion yuan ($448 million), the forthcoming joint-venture bank, which is still waiting for regulat
ory approval, may become China’s first commercial lender in which a foreign shareholder has a controlling int
erest. According to the plan, ING Bank will hold a 51 percent stake, and Bank of Beijing 49 percent.
Drawing on the experience of ING Bank in the successful development of direct banking services, the joint venture will build
a brand in the area of digital banking with the help of financial technologies and try to become a benc
hmark in terms of the implementation of China’s push to further open up its financial sector to for
eign investors, said the mid-tier commercial lender BOB in an announcement.
William, Kate, Harry and Meghan condemn “horrifying assault”today.
William and Kate, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sus
sex, have said they have all spent time in Christchurch and its “open-hearted and generous” people.
They condemned the violence on the Muslim community, calling it “horrifying assault on a way of life that embodies decency, community, and friendship.”
”No person should ever have to fear attending a sacred place of worship,” the royal couples said in a statement.
Here’s the full statement:
Our hearts go out to the families and friends of the people who lost their lives in the devastating attack in Christchurch.
We have all been fortunate to spend time in Christchurch and have felt the warm, open-hearted and generous spirit that is core to its remarkable people.
No person should ever have to fear attending a sacred place of worship.
This senseless attack is an affront to the people of Christchurch and New Zealand, and the broader Muslim comm
unity. It is a horrifying assault on a way of life that embodies decency, community, and friendship.
We know that from this devastation and deep mourning, the people of New Zealand will unite to show that such evil can never defeat compassion and tolerance.
We send our thoughts and prayers to everyone in New Zealand today.
The most notable change ahead, as both reports indic
indicate, is the emphasis that is now being put on helping private companies and protecting intellectual property rig
hts. The top court’s report, for instance, vowed to “enhance judicial protection for intellectual property rig
hts, promote the transfer of old and new kinetic energies, and serve the economy’s high-quality development”. And
in addition to completing international business dispute resolution mechanisms related to the Belt and Road Initi
ative, it has pledged to offer “equal protection for legal rights and interests of all kinds of market entities”.
This reflects the importance the country has attached to unswervingly encouraging, supporting and guiding the develop
ment of the nonpublic sector and shows the judicial and procuratorial organs will play their due roles in pro
moting the country’s all-around opening-up by ensuring a level and rules-based playing field.
In essence, the two reports made clear that security, democracy, rule of law, fairnes
s and justice, and a better environment are the focus of judicial and procuratorial work in the new era.
Carlson ended his monologue by saying he’s grateful for Fox’
”toughness.” Then he said “we’ve always apologized when we’re wrong, and will continue to do that” — but he pointedly did not apologize for any of his misogynistic comments from the past.
Right after Carlson’s show on Monday, veteran Fox News analyst and former host Brit Hume
tweeted out Friday’s cable news ratings — which had Carlson in first place among total viewers — and said “doing well is the best revenge.”
CNN analyst Joe Lockhart responded to Hume by expressing regret that “bigotry and misogyny sells so well.”
”It’s a stain on our country,” Lockhart wrote. “Ratings don’t trump values and I know you know that.””I hate flyin
g as it is,” she told CNN. “When I saw it was one of the new ones I was absolutely terrified.”
Nevertheless, she boarded Turkish Airways flight 1969 for the four-hour flight.
About two hours into the flight, she says she noticed something odd.
”Well they didn’t tell us straight away but I could feel some
thing was different,” she says. “And the map on the screens was showing we’d turned back.”
The pilot then announced they would be turning back to Istanbul because UK airspace was closed, citing weather condi
tions. (Around that time, the Civil Aviation Authority in the UK closed the airspace to all Boeing 737 MAX model planes.)
The flight turned around and landed about two hours later at the same airport from where they left.
Tor says Turkish Airways told the passengers they will be put on a Wednesday morning flight instead.
Because our global supply and value chains are well estab
lished, it is fairly critical for us to transform the operational mode from simply
producing and shipping rolling stock to other countries to deepening the degree of international cooperation,” said Lou.
His remarks came after China and Argentina enhanced their relations to boost t
rade, investment, infrastructure and development of services-related facilities.
More Chinese companies such as China Railway Construction Corp and China National Machine
ry Industry Corp have already expanded their market presence in Argentina in the second half of 2018.
To upgrade the public transportation system in Buenos Aires, the country’s capital, and modernize the city’s infrast
ructure, Argentina’s Ministry of Transport signed a purchase deal for 200 rail cars and related parts from CRRC in Apr
il last year. It was the third carriage order from the ministry. The deal is worth about 2 billion yuan ($299 million).
Highlights of 2019 Government Work Report, opens its seco
Premier Li Keqiang delivered the Government Work Report to the second session of th
e 13th National People’s Congress in Beijing on Tuesday mornng. Here are the highlights:
China will raise its fiscal deficit target to 2.76 trillion yuan, or 2.8 percent of GDP, this year from 2.6 percent in 2018. Tota
l government expenditure is budgeted at over 23 trillion yuan, up by 6.5 percent from last year.
The measure is being taken to stabilize economic growth by enlarging government spending. As a major me
asure to tackle economic risks, the proactive fiscal policy in 2019 will become stronger and more efficient.
China set its GDP growth target for this year at between 6 percent and 6.5 percent as the country pursues higher-qua
lity development amid mounting uncertainties in the international economic landscape.
China also set its target for consumer inflation growth at 3 percent for this year, wh
ile it will try to keep growth of the broad measure of money supply, or M2, largely at the same level as last year.
It would seem to take just one more defection by a Republic
an for the measure to have the votes it needs to pass the Senate. CNN’s Chris Cillizza put together a list of s
