1,200 Dead Pigs Found In Shanghai River
Over the past month the west had its "horsemeat" scare, where horse DNA traces have been found in pretty much everything. It is now China's turn to reciprocate, with 1,200 pigs found in Shanghai's Huangpu River. Why someone would dump thousands of dead pigs in the river? Who knows - we are confident that it is bullish, however, and it is time fro GETCO or K-Hen to do something about this strange reddish color in the futures. It is not helping with confidence in central planning...
From China.org
The municipal authorities said the retrieved pigs would be collected and handled in a harmless way.
According to the labels pinned in the ears of the pigs which are used to trace their information, the dead pigs are found to come from the upstream waters of the Huangpu River.
The local authorities are conducting coordinated efforts to stop the dumping of dead pigs from the source.
Local media reports said the pigs mainly came from Shanghai's neighboring Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.
The water quality of Shanghai has not been affected by the floating dead pigs, according to the city's water supply bureau.
But fear not: just like Fukushima (which has its 2 year anniversary today) was reported by the government for days and days to be just a minor blip and only conspiracy theorists were allowed to associate dangerous radioactivity with a nuclear power plant explosion, so pigs in a river are, according to China, perfectly normal:
"The data of water quality are all within the normal range," said the bureau.
One wonders how many pigs in the river would shift the water quality to "abnormal"...

Unclean!
The water quality is not affected, until it is. So until that time, all is fine as long as you don't have enough money to go elsewhere.
Maybe they decided to run into the water and kill themselves.....it's happened once before.
Don't believe me.....Google it.
From what I heard, the water comes to you. Just don't try to live underneath it.
long crayfish.
'The water quality of Shanghai has not been affected by the floating dead pigs, according to the city's water supply bureau.'
Classic, absolute classic!
Maybe the pigs drank the river water, and then dropped dead.
Saving money shipping pigs to market...
Nothing more.

I had a hard time finding the pigs in the other trash. Jesus. The side of the river looks like a land fill
You should go to Africa, or Iraq/Kuwait. Same shit, it's unbeievable how much garbage they just dump wherever. Kuwait is a rocky/sandy landscape with white plastic bottles blowing like Tumbleweeds. Naturally they all end up in what few irrigation ditches they have. Iraq the same way but they have a variety of items, kids there play in streets where open pit sewers run down the middle of the road...with no shoes on. Oh and of course there's broken whisky bottles and herion needles on the ground everywhere too. So much for no drug use in a quasi-sharia-law country. Africa, well I dont' think I need to describe that, but even the "good" areas of Nairobi were filthy, and the landscape bordering any city, town or village was full of garbage, people lived among it. No wonder so many die from Cholera, Dysentary or other totally preventable diseases, that and just sheer overpopulation considering what the land can support.
Obviously, those indigenous upstream water pigs were not more equal than others.
Those little piggies went glug glug glug glug all the way home...
US sheep should be attentive to the progress of Chinese pigs.

1200 dead pigs didn't change the quality of the water, it was shit before and its still shit now.
These are turncoat pigs that decided to help the government confiscate firearms...it was a peoples rebellion. But the Chinese government is covering up the story.
Water bottles in Iraq & Kuwait prolly = US soldiers dumping their shit...
In Saudi way back in the 70's during the energy embargo, etc., was doing bidnez in Saudi and same stuff all overe the place. Staying in 5 star hotels and look out the window and the landscape, particularly about construction sites, were littered with empty liquor bottles.
Indeed. In 2000 I stayed in a PH suite in Cairo. Cairo is filthy enough at street level, but from the PH vantage point it became apparent that all the building rooftops were garbage dumps. Yuck.
They do the same thing in Mauritania. The goats and the cows graze on the garbage piles around the city because there is nothing else to eat. (NW Sahra Desert).... And then the people eat the goats and the cows. Ocasinally you will see goats living on the roof tops of houses. I think this is done to control what they eat by some of the more discerning Mauritanians. This is definetly one place you do not want to eat the free-range meat.
What pisses me off is if you point out any of that, you are being ethnocentric. Like living in trash is some kind of cultural good and we shouldn't judge or something. Fuck a bunch of that.
Right, like it's racist to say, "People in 3rd world, pardon, "developing nations" live in some pretty fucking shitty conditions." Racism, the ultimate divide and conquer strat.
Racist!
Flying pigs are so passé, these are submersible pigs! :>D

Shit's meant to get you accustomed to the "good" New Life of BigBro.
BTW, who counted the shit?
Maybe Jesus is back exorcising demons again.
I think the pigs were just so disgusted by the condition of the Chinese roadsides (nightsoil blobbing-up and depositionalizing and all that) that they tried in desperation to find a cleaner environment by swimming in the rivers instead.
Alas, alas, several more times alas, the joke was on them.
You mean they were demon possessed? How could that be? Did a Good Jewish Man have anything to do with it? Long pork.
Long long pig, the other other white meat.
Is jesus in China?
Notify Pat Roberts.
Natural causes no doubt... they probably died peacefully in their sleep dreaming of lollipops, cute little puppy dogs and their favorite ice cream
There has been some flash flooding in parts of China. If the number was small, I would guess that some local people upriver simply lost their private livestock. But 1,200 with industrial tags...!
Epidemiology, anyone? Remember the "Swine Flu" exercise following Barry Saetoro's trip to Mexico?
Dammit, I used to love Chinese bacon. It's getting so a guy can't enjoy any vices.

everyone thinks china is full of these resourceful, intelligent calculated people having read sun tzu and confusicus.
they are all a bunch of gimps like western kardashian loving fat fucks.
China is a fucking housing bubbled trampy hole like everywhere else
But when will the housing bubble burst?
who knows? but the yen is bursting now
and france bond yields look like a short for small profit till dragi releases OMT 2.0
I would be more glad to see the Japanese government bond market burst and give Paul Krugman the Dickhead a bitchslap.
good luck, when you have a central bank bending over to politicians
interest rates gonna cream Jap budget so badly its the end of keynsian bullshit
currency is going to shit the bag
You're dead wrong sir. It's politicians bending over to central bankers. Keynesian will kill itself in the end, we should not fear it, those of us who are prepared.
It can't burst until you fill it wit occupants. They have a 10 year stock of housing for all the growth expected over the next decade. If they were to wait until the growth occured, the housing would cost more. Now they sit abandoned waiting for farmers to migrate from the hills to the once beautiful coastal cities who's richer residents are fleeing and will need to be replaced.
I told the kids in one of my classes (I'm about 6 years older than the average undergraduate) not to copy off me like I'm a Korean Kid in Math class or they won't do well. I took the first 20 questions and shifted the answer one space to the right. If it was D I looped back to A. They all copied, I could see the eyeballs.
So at the end, when I was finished I simply erased the first 20 and shifted the answers, knowing that NOW they'd be right. I wonder if that confused them or if they didn't notice too much and thought maybe I was checking. Either way I hid my scantron well at this point (and after the first 20 I let them all see). Well grades are posted online, I got a 98% and the class average was a 73%. Hopefully I contributed to that low average, my own grade being what it was there certainly had to be some drag elsewhere. We'll see if anyone got the first 20 in a row wrong come Tuesday. Mwahahaha, Muhfuggarz, I told them not to.
Cruel and unusual; back in the day, I transposed the function 'keys' on a TI SR-50 (Scientific) calculator for all those operations that had an inverse (+/-, mutl/div, sq/sqrt etc) ... mentally I transposed those ops so, no prob for me ... but for those 'borrowing' the calculator on test day beware the transposed functions!!!!!! HAhahahahahaha ...
What, were they zeroed in on you with cameras or something? How can everyone in the class copy your scantron sheet?
