China has shut down the Chinese websites of Marriott International for a week, after the firm listed Tibet and others as separate countries.
The hotel group has apologised for the error and said it did not support separatist movements in China.
Tibet, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau were listed as individual nations in an online survey sent to customers.
Beijing considers self-ruling Taiwan to be a breakaway province and Tibet is governed as an autonomous region.
Hong Kong and Macau are both special administrative regions of China.
Marriott was also chastised after one of the firm's social media accounts "liked" a post made by a group supporting a separatist Tibet.
Chinese media is reporting that some travellers are cancelling Marriott reservations in response.
'Respect Chinese sovereignty'
China is usually quick to respond to any actions or statements it deems supportive of separatist movements, especially related to Tibet and Taiwan.
While the hotel's international website is still available within China, the Shanghai Cyberspace Administration ordered it to close a Mandarin version.
Authorities also shut down Marriott's Chinese mobile phone app as part of its punishment for the Mandarin-language survey. But having being closed earlier, the app now appears to be functioning.
Image caption This is what you see when you visit the Marriott website in China -it says the site is being updated, and also gives an apology
On Thursday the hotel group's chief executive Arne Sorenson issued an apology, saying his firm "respects and supports Chinese sovereignty and its territorial integrity".
"We don't support anyone who subverts the sovereignty and territorial integrity of China and we do not intend in any way to encourage or incite any such people or groups," Mr Sorenson said.
"Unfortunately, twice this week, we had incidents that suggested the opposite."
The statement added that the company would take "necessary" disciplinary action against staff involved, which may include termination.
Mr Sorenson has previously described China as his firm's biggest market. While Marriott has over 100 hotels in the country under different brands, it is also keen to profit from the swelling number of Chinese people travelling internationally.
Last year it launched a joint travel venture with China's ecommerce giant Alibaba. ||||| Mercedes-Benz apologizes to the Chinese people for quoting Dalai Lama on its Instagram page
The brand has promised to deepen its employees understanding of Chinese culture and values
Shanghaiist.com Blocked Unblock Follow Following Feb 6, 2018
Mercedes-Benz has apologized — rather profusely — for quoting the Dalai Lama in an advertisement on its Instagram page. That apparently offensive quote from His Holiness?
“Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open.”
For finding some #MondayMotivation in the words of the Tibetan spiritual leader — who China regards as a separatist and “wolf in monk’s robes” — the luxury German automaker posted an apology on its official Weibo page earlier this afternoon:
This morning, we noticed that our company’s international social media had posted an extremely erroneous message. For this, we sincerely apologize.
Although we deleted the post as soon as possible, we fully understand how it has hurt the feelings of people in this country, including our colleagues who work in the country. For this, we express our sincerest apologies.
We fully understand and respect the feelings of our compatriots on this issue and accept criticism and comments from all parties.
Taking this incident as a guide, we will immediately take practical actions to deepen our understanding of Chinese culture and values — including for our overseas colleagues — and regulate our behavior to prevent such incidents from occurring again.
Finally, we sincerely apologize again.
While Mercedes-Benz has not allowed comments on its apology post, a lively discussion on the issue is ongoing over on the official Weibo account of the nationalistic Global Times tabloid.
“ Foreign companies do not understand our national conditions, but this is not an excuse to not deal with them,” argued one netizen.
“Just one apology and that’s it? At least give all your Weibo fans a car!” commented another.
“Why has this apology been issued only in Chinese? Why not on international social media as well?” wrote one inquisitive net user.
Meanwhile, the brand’s Instagram page has been hit with the usual deluge of angry Chinese commenters, who reliably emerge en masse following feelings-hurting incidents like these:
“Apologize please,If u still want China’s market.Use Dalai Lama’s words is not a good choice.If our advertisement use Hitler’s words,what do you think,” wrote one of these internet warriors.
Last month, international brands like Marriott, Delta, and Zara were also forced to apologize to China and the Chinese people after being exposed for listing Taiwan and/or Tibet as “countries” on their websites.
“Marriott International respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of China. We don’t support separatist groups that subvert the sovereignty and territorial integrity of China. We sincerely apologize for any actions that may have suggested otherwise,” the hotel chain tweeted after being outed. ||||| Mercedes-Benz has apologised for "hurting the feelings" of the people of China for quoting the Dalai Lama on Instagram.
The German auto giant became the latest of several international companies that have backpedalled recently for offending Chinese consumers with advertising or information that clashes with Beijing's official position on Tibet and other Chinese-claimed regions.
Mercedes' seemingly benign post to its official Instagram account showed a Benz on a beach before rolling white-capped waves.
"Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open," the ad copy ran, citing the Dalai Lama, who is seen by Beijing as a separatist.
"Start your week with a fresh perspective on life from the Dalai Lama," the carmaker wrote in the tagline. ||||| Mercedes-Benz China apologized on Tuesday for its parent company quoting the Dalai Lama in an “extremely wrong message” on social media.
The apology came after a post on Mercedes-Benz’s Instagram account showed a luxury vehicle and quoted the Dalai Lama saying “Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open.”
The post not only hurt the feelings of the Chinese people, but also challenged their bottom line on national sovereignty.
Mercedes-Benz delivered more than 600,000 new cars in China in 2017, setting a global record in a single market, according to Hubertus Troska, who is responsible for the Greater China, attributing the result to Chinese customers’ trust in the company.
The car company followed in the footsteps of U.S. hotel chain Marriott, who just recently apologized for wrongly labeling Chinese territories as independent countries.
Chasing profits in China while hurting the feelings of the Chinese people, the reason for this conduct of some foreign enterprises is unacceptable.
The Dalai Lama’s agenda to split the country in the name of “autonomy” is well-known around the world, and anyone who supports him is clearly against China.
At a Tibet work conference held in August 2015, Chinese President Xi Jinping pointed out that the international community should understand that foreign interference in China’s domestic affairs is intolerable.
The President sent a clear message that any country, enterprise, or individual should not challenge the core interests of China, and any activity to split China will never be tolerated.
As a foreign enterprise, Mercedes–Benz always stresses its social responsibilities, but hurting Chinese customers and crossing the red line of sovereignty is not socially responsible.
Tolerance is a virtue of the Chinese culture, but tolerance has its limits. How will the German people react if a foreign enterprise speaks highly of Adolf Hitler and propagates his quotes, or worships views that try to separate German?
Clearly, cultural tolerance should not an excuse for a foreign firm to challenge the limits of a host country.
In its apology, Mercedes-Benz said it will deepen understanding of Chinese culture and values among its staff, including overseas staff. But the apology lacks sincerity and reflects the German carmaker’s lack of understanding of Chinese culture and values.
China’s core interests cannot be challenged. Without sincere reflection, any foreign car business will not survive in China. |||||
A summary of this is? | – "Look at situations from all angles, and you will become more open." These words are hardly controversial, but in China, the figure who spoke them is. It's for that reason that Mercedes-Benz and its parent company have each apologized after the German automaker included the quote from the Dalai Lama in a #MondayMotivation Instagram post this week, per the BBC. Instagram isn't accessible in China, where the Tibetan spiritual leader is viewed as a threatening separatist, but Chinese users who caught wind of the post were furious, with one likening it to quoting Hitler, per Shanghaiist. After the post was deleted, Mercedes-Benz offered a resounding apology Tuesday on social media site Weibo, describing the ad as carrying "an extremely erroneous message." While China's Foreign Ministry approved of the apology, it wasn't enough for some. The People's Daily newspaper said the apology "lacks sincerity and reflects … [a] lack of understanding of Chinese culture and values." Mercedes-Benz's parent company, Daimler, then sent a written apology to China's ambassador to Germany on Wednesday, acknowledging "the hurt and grief that its negligent and insensitive mistake has caused to the Chinese people." Too much? Not for a company that wants to keep a foothold in China's massive consumer market, reports the Telegraph, which notes the band Placebo was permanently banned from China for posting a photo of the Dalai Lama on Instagram. | 4 | Flan2021 | multi_news:1.0.0 | zs_opt |

Background: A Hakka, Kate Tsui was born and raised in Hong Kong. Her father works in logistics, and while her mother is now a homemaker, she was a dancer when she was younger. Tsui also has an older sister, who is married with two kids. As of 2014, Tsui has expressed that with the exception of herself, her entire immediate family now resides in Taiwan.
Context: 2012 is arguably Tsui's peak year in her TV career. In Highs and Lows, Tsui portrays an extremely tragic character that struggled with substance abuse, gang rape, and eventually, drug dealing. Tsui described her experience of filming this drama as "being on an emotional roller coaster", to the extent that she did not wish to speak to anyone or pick up the phone after work. The producer of the drama, Lam Chi Wah, referred to Tsui's role in Highs and Lows as the greatest breakthrough in her career and applauded her for setting down her image as a beauty pageant winner to dive into such a complex character in the drama. Film director, Patrick Kong, also noted in his column that Tsui's acting has greatly matured in Highs and Lows, particularly in her portrayal of emotional scenes. The role at last earned her the Favourite Female Character award for the TVB Anniversary Awards 2012. Tsui was also nominated in the Best Actress category and was one of the top 5 finalists for the award. Aside from the aforementioned Hong Kong TVB-based awards show, Tsui also received a nomination for Best Actress in a Leading Role for the Asian Television Awards, which is an awards show held in Singapore that recognizes production excellence in over 15 Asian countries. In 2014, Tsui took part in a TVB-produced micro film, A Time of Love, which consists of four individual stories, each with a separate theme. Tsui starred opposite Taiwanese actors, James Wen and Chris Wang, in the "sorrow" themed story. After the airing of the micro film, TVB received 39 individual viewer statements that commended Tsui of her outstanding performance in the micro film. Column writer, Ko Leung, of Macao Daily, also stated Tsui portrayed her character in the micro film perfectly and that Tsui's acting is comparable to that of Bai Baihe in The Stolen Years. In 2015, Tsui's management contract with TVB ended. However, Tsui said that she is still on very good terms with TVB, and TVB has settled job arrangements for her up until February 2016. Despite having received several offers, Tsui stated that she will not finalize any management contract agreements until she has completed her jewelry design courses.

6. Damon and Danes are fabulous together, and even more than the surprisingly complex story and nice cameos and deft and economical direction by Francis Ford Coppola, they are what makes The Rainmaker worth seeing.
7. Coppola has infused The Rainmaker with enough humor, character, honest emotion and storytelling style to make it one of the year's most entertaining movies.
8. Celebrates the zeal for justice espoused by a rookie Memphis lawyer.
9. Matt Damon is ideal as the young innocent David to Voight and Co's Goliath, determined and driven by the power of his purity. That's how Coppola sees it, and it is largely Coppola's cinematic acumen that makes this Grisham novel adaptation work.
10. It is just as entertaining as it is manipulative and corny.

Article: By 3400 BCE, the Sahara was as dry as it is today, due to reduced precipitation and higher temperatures resulting from a shift in the Earth's orbit. As a result of this aridification, it became a largely impenetrable barrier to humans, with the remaining settlements mainly being concentrated around the numerous oases that dot the landscape. Little trade or commerce is known to have passed through the interior in subsequent periods, the only major exception being the Nile Valley. The Nile, however, was impassable at several cataracts, making trade and contact by boat difficult.

Park Ji-Sung will sign a new two-year contract with Manchester United, according to the English football champions' manager Alex Ferguson. The midfielder, 30, has one year remaining on his current deal, but Ferguson is confident the former South Korea star will commit his future to the club he joined from Dutch outfit PSV Eindhoven in 2005. "He's been offered a new contract, yes," Ferguson, 69, told the Old Trafford team's official web site. "I'm sure he'll sign it. His career at United has been nothing but excellent. He's a tremendous professional. I'm sure he'll accept a new offer and tie himself to the club for the next two years." Park, who is in the U.S. on United's preseason tour, scored in the Red Devils' first two matches against New England Revolution and Seattle Sounders respectively. Since arriving in Manchester, Park has picked up four Premier League titles and helped United become champions of Europe in 2008. He won 100 international caps for his country and became the first Asian player to score at three successive World Cups with a goal against Greece in June 2010. Park, who began his career with Japanese club Kyoto Purple Sanga, announced his retirement from international football on January 31.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about:
Glue based dent pullers use traditional glue guns to heat the glue before applying it to the vehicle. You will need to plug the gun in a few minutes before you start in order to heat the gun up enough to melt the glue. Be sure to use an extension cord that can reach the vehicle for the glue gun. You will need to re-wax the vehicle after using this method. Using a glue based dent remover kit purchased from an auto parts store, choose the tab that best fits the dent you are trying to pull. Usually, you want to use a tab that fits entirely within the dent so it pulls directly from the center point. Follow the directions in your dent pulling kit so help you determine which tab is right for your application. Apply a dab of hot glue to the tab of your choice, then quickly place the tab, glue side down, in the center of the dent. Hold the tab in place for a moment to allow the glue to set. It’s okay if some of the glue squeezes out the sides of the tab when you apply it. Hold the tab in place until the glue dries enough to hold itself up. Slide the pulling mechanism bracket over the tab with the two posts on either side of the dent. If the kit came with multiple brackets, ensure you use one that is longer than the diameter of the dent so the posts are at least a half inch from the start of the dent on either side. The posts need to be outside the dent in order to pull the dent out. If the bracket is not wider than the dent, this method will not work for you. Place the knob on the end of the tab that’s glued to the center of the dent. Turn the knob clockwise to tighten it, drawing the glued tab toward the bracket and pulling the metal with it. Continue to turn the knob until the dent pops out. The glue may give way as you turn the knob. If this occurs, remove the old glue and begin the process again. You may need to repeat this method on more than one spot to remove the entire dent. Peel any loose glue off with your fingers, then use rubbing alcohol to help remove any glue or residue remaining. This will likely remove the wax, and possibly even the clear coat from your paint, so be sure to apply a fresh coat of wax as soon as possible. The glue and the alcohol are both harsh on paint, so be sure to wash and wax the vehicle after using them.
Summary: | Plug the glue gun in. Choose the pulling tab best suited for the dent. Apply glue to the tab, then place the tab in the center of the dent. Attach the pulling mechanism to the tab. Turn the knob until the dent pops out. Remove the glue with isopropyl alcohol. | 5 | Flan2021 | gem/wiki_lingua_english_en:1.1.0 | zs_opt |

Grande dame of cooking still going strong at 90: Julia Child celebrates in San Francisco. How does it feel to turn 90 and have attained the status of an icon, a living legend? "It feels just like it felt before," Julia Child says with the throaty laugh familiar to millions who cut their culinary teeth on her "French Chef" television series. The show, along with her seminal book, "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" (1961), revolutionized the way America cooks and eats. While making light of the difference a day -- or another decade -- makes, Child intends to enjoy her birthday thoroughly. First, there will be all the public observances, including a sold-out dinner Thursday at San Francisco's tony Fifth Floor restaurant, which -- like dinners that night at 19 other venues across the country -- will benefit the scholarship fund of the International Association of Culinary Professionals (which Child co-founded). Friday to Sunday, the action moves to Napa, with both members-only and public events at COPIA: The American Center for Wine, Food and the Arts, of which she is an honorary board member. Aug. 15, her actual birthday, will see her in Maine at an annual gathering of nieces, nephews, their offspring and friends, who for many years have rolled a joined birthday celebration for several members of the group into a jolly reunion. The schedule Child and her assistant of 14 years, former pastry chef Stephanie Hersh, have laid out is not exactly a senior-citizen routine, even though Child has always been candid about her age and realistic in assessing her own capabilities. When the Pasadena native moved back to California from her long-time home in the Boston area last year, she also made the move from a condominium she and her late husband, Paul, had purchased many years ago to a progressive retirement home. She is in the most active of the four levels available, but should the need arise, she can move on to assisted living facilities within the same complex.

Jean was born in Croix-des-Bouquets, Haiti. In 1982, he immigrated with his family as a thirteen-year-old boy to the United States; after living in Brooklyn, New York, they settled in East Orange and Newark, New Jersey. He began to make music as a child and has cited reggae artist Bigga Haitian as one of his early influences, as well as neighborhood heroes MC Tiger Paw Raw and producer Lobster v. Crab. His mother recognized his musical talent and bought him a guitar when he was in his teens; he played music to earn respect.
Jean announced plans to begin a solo career with 1997's Wyclef Jean Presents the Carnival Featuring the Refugee All-Stars (generally called The Carnival). The album's guests included Lauryn Hill and Pras along with Jean's siblings' group Melky Sedeck; the I Threes (back-up vocals for Bob Marley); The Neville Brothers and Celia Cruz. The album was a hit, as were two singles: "We Trying to Stay Alive" (adapted from the Bee Gees' "Stayin' Alive") and "Gone Till November" (recorded with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra). Released in 2000, Jean's second solo album The Ecleftic: 2 Sides II a Book was recorded with guests including Youssou N'Dour; Earth, Wind & Fire; Kenny Rogers; The Rock; and Mary J. Blige.

Following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Jean participated in the benefit concert America: A Tribute to Heroes contributing a cover of the Bob Marley song "Redemption Song". His third album, Masquerade, was released in 2002. His fourth album, The Preacher's Son, was released in November 2003 as the follow-up to his first solo album, The Carnival. In 2004, he released his fifth album, Sak Pase Presents: Welcome to Haiti (Creole 101) (released in the United States by Koch Records). Most of its songs are in his native language of Haitian Creole like "Fanm Kreyol" with the French Caribbean Admiral T. He also figured on the album Mozaik Kreyol of this one in the song "Secret Lover". Then he covered Creedence Clearwater Revival's song "Fortunate Son" for the soundtrack of the 2004 film remake of The Manchurian Candidate and wrote the song "Million Voices" for the film Hotel Rwanda. Jean also produced and wrote songs for the soundtrack to Jonathan Demme's 2003 documentary The Agronomist, about the Haitian activist and radio personality Jean Dominique. With Jerry 'Wonder' Duplessis, Jean also composed the score of the documentary Ghosts of Cite Soleil, He helped produce the film and he appears briefly onscreen speaking by telephone in 2004 to a "chimere" gang-leader and aspiring rapper, Winston "2Pac" Jean.

Russia's prime minister Vladimir Putin will not going to Zurich to help his country win the 2018 World Cup and has complained of "unfair competition" in the bidding process. Putin was expected to go to the Swiss city to put the case for Russia, but is sending his deputy Igor Shuvalov in his place. The Russian bid has gathered pace in the buildup to Thursday's vote to decide the hosts for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups. Putin was expected to join other political heavyweights like former U.S. president Bill Clinton and British prime minister David Cameron in last-minute lobbying of FIFA executive members. But in a speech broadcast on Russian television, Putin confirmed he would stay at home and also appeared to criticize corruption allegations made against executive members by British media organizations. Blog: Which countries will win the right to host World Cups ? "I would like to note that recently we have watched with disappointment as an obvious campaign was being unleashed against members of the FIFA executive committee," he said. "They are being dragged through the mud and compromised. I interpret this as unfair competition. We believe that such methods of competition are entirely unacceptable. "Under these circumstances, I think it would be best not to go out of respect for the members of the FIFA executive committee, so that they could make their decision in peace and without any outside pressure." The former Russian president said he had spoken with FIFA president Sepp Blatter on the telephone and put the case for his country to host the World Cup for the first time. "The world football championship has never been held either in Russia, or anywhere else in eastern Europe," he said. "Russia has both the will and the capabilities, including financial, to organize this major sport event." Russia is competing against England and joint bids from Spain and Portugal and Netherlands and Belgium for the right to host in 2018. Australia, Japan, South Korea,Qatar and the United States are battling it out for the 2022 rights. The 22-man FIFA executive committee will make its decisions on Thursday.

Went here with a couple of friends for dinner and really enjoyed the food! We ordered egg rolls, shrimp fried rice, and shrimp panang. The egg rolls were so good, we ordered another batch lol. The fried rice and panang were delicious as well. My friends ordered garlic chicken as well and didn't enjoy that. Other than that, service was good and waiters are friendly.

Grand Slam of Curling 2008-09 season preview
There's always a lot on the line in the Grand Slam of Curling, but this season the stakes may be higher than ever.
With the trials for the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver just over a year away, time is running out for Canada's top rinks to position themselves for a run at the gold medal. The final dash begins this week at the Masters of Curling, the first leg of the World Curling Tour's invitation-only Grand Slam series.
Along with the usual $100,000 purse up for grabs, the Canadian teams competing in Waterloo, Ont., will resume their three-year-long quest for valuable points toward one of the eight spots at the Olympic trials in Edmonton in December 2009.
Including results from this season and the prior two, the top four skips after the season-ending Players' Championship in April receive a direct ticket to Edmonton, while the next 12 will have to battle it out for the four remaining berths at a qualifying spiel.
Based on their stellar performances over the last two seasons, the rinks of Glenn Howard and Kevin Martin have already guaranteed their place in the trials. Randy Ferbey, Kevin Koe, Pat Simmons, Jeff Stoughton, Kerry Burtnyk and Wayne Middaugh are assured of at least a spot in the qualifier, which is slated for Prince George, B.C., next November.
That leaves quite a bit up for grabs at the four Grand Slam tournaments. Following the Masters, there's the National (Dec. 3-7, Quebec City), the Canadian Open (Jan. 21-25, Winnipeg) and the Players' Championship (April 14-19, Grande Prairie, Alta.).
Already big dates on the pro curling calendar, those events are now looming even larger, according to Howard.
"The main focus is the Olympic trials right now, and the Brier is probably a secondary focus," the Coldwater, Ont., skip told CBCSports.ca.
CBC Sports brings you live coverage of the playoff rounds of the four Slam events, beginning with the Masters quarter-finals on Nov. 15 (CBC, CBCSports.ca, 3 p.m. ET). The championship final is set for Nov. 16 (CBC, CBCSports.ca, 1 p.m. ET).
To preview the action in Waterloo and beyond, CBCSports.ca spoke with CBC curling analyst Mike Harris about the big questions heading into the new season.
At this time last year, everyone was asking the same question: Can anyone beat Martin? The Edmonton skip was smack in the middle of a Grand Slam winning streak that would eventually reach an unprecedented five tournaments â an astounding feat given that the Slams don't require regional representation, and thus assemble a particularly fierce field. Martin and his rink were consistently shellacking the top teams on the World Curling Tour's Order of Merit.
Is Kevin Koe ready to make the leap into curling's upper echelon? Some may say he has already. (Andrew Vaughan/Canadian Press)But it all came to a crashing halt at last year's Masters in late January in Saskatoon, where Howard unceremoniously dumped Martin in the quarter-finals en route to winning the trophy (which, last year, was the third event in the Grand Slam series). Howard then defeated Martin in the final of the Players' Championship for his second straight Slam title.
Martin exacted revenge with a last-rock victory over Howard in the Brier final in March, and he went on to capture his first world championship. Martin also edged his rival for top spot on last season's WCT money list, collecting $127,000 to Howard's $126,795.
But Howard, the 2007 world champ, regained the upper hand in early November at the Cactus Pheasant Classic in Brooks, Alta., stealing two off Martin in the last end of the final to claim the lion's share of the $70,000 purse.
That was Howard's third title in as many tournaments this season, and teammates Richard Hart, Brent Laing and Craig Savill won yet another with Hart playing skip while Howard recovered from hernia surgery.
Odds are that curling's best two skips will meet again with a pile of money on the line â perhaps as soon as this weekend in Waterloo.
"Those two teams are going to be No. 1 and 2 right up until Vancouver," Harris says. "There's very little difference between the two of them, but they've separated themselves from the rest of the world."
Curling fans used to talk about the Big 3 â Martin, Howard and Ferbey. But while the first two teams have tightened their grip on the sport, the third has faded. Since winning four of the five Briers held from 2001-2005 â along with three world championships â Ferbey hasn't even qualified for the top event in Canadian curling (Martin has won the Alberta playdowns three years running).
The fall of the Ferbey empire has played out on the WCT as well, where he's gone from tops on the money list in 2005-06 to second in 2006-07 to fifth last season.
With Ferbey fading from prominence, or at least dominance, a new skip has emerged as the top threat to Martin and Howard. And, as coincidence would have it, he's from Edmonton.
Kevin Koe finished third on the money list last season, when he joined the last two world champions as the only men to earn over $100,000. That was no fluke, either: He also cracked the $100K mark in 2006-07, when he finished fourth in money.
Now the question is, can Koe climb into the rarefied air occupied by curling's two superpowers? Last year's head-to-head matchups suggest he may not have far to go. Though Koe lost to Martin in the final of the National and in the semis at the Players', and fell to Howard in the final at the Masters, his rink also scored a huge confidence-building victory over Martin in the final of the prestigious Canada Cup in March.
"They're talented, they work hard and they do all the right things," Harris says. "After Howard and Martin, you've got Koe, Ferbey, Wayne Middaugh, Brad Gushue and Kerry Burtnyk that are all pretty good. Koe's team is the best of that bunch. They seem to be playing their best, and they've been together the longest."
So who will be this season's Koe? Harris says there are several dark-horse candidates, including 34-year-old Bob Ursel of Kelowna, B.C. (tied for 10th on the money list in 2007-08) and 20-something Winnipeg skips Mike McEwen (16th) and Daley Peters (53rd).
Brad Gushue may have finally figured out the right mix of teammates. (Andrew Vaughan/Canadian Press)But the guy to really keep an eye on is a lot more familiar. St. John's skip Gushue, the 2006 Olympic champion, has been in a state of transition since all-time great Russ Howard (Glenn's brother) left his rink following their victory at the Turin Games.
For the second straight season post-Howard, Gushue and ace third Mark Nichols are breaking in a revamped front end. Well, sort of. There's a fresh face at second in Ryan Fry, who left his job as the third for Jeff Stoughton. But the new lead is actually the old lead. Fun-loving Jamie Korab returns to the same role he held on the Olympic champion team after being dumped in favour of Dave Noftall prior to last season.
The early returns look promising. Gushue and his new mates won the Swiss Cup in October and made the semifinals at the Meyers Norris Penny Prairie Classic a few weeks later. With over $22,000 in winnings, the team is more than halfway toward the total take of last season's squad, which finished 12th on the money list.
"They've been searching for a way to get back to where they were," Harris says. "I don't think anyone thought any of the changes they made in the last two or three years improved their chances. However, this change is the first time everyone would agree they're back to where they need to be. They're definitely a better team.
"Jamie is a good lead and a good team guy. After they cut him, they were kind of lost. They weren't scaring anybody and they weren't playing all that well. But now they're back and they're better than they were. I could see them having a pretty good year."
Gushue wasn't the only skip to shuffle his lineup in the off-season. With the race for a trials spot entering its last leg, a couple of veteran Winnipeg skips made waves by adding experienced help in a last-ditch effort to improve their rinks over the summer.
Winnipeg's Burtnyk ditched third Dan Kammerlock in favour of decorated veteran Don Walchuk, who won Olympic silver in 2002 and a Brier in 1997 under Martin. Stoughton also had a vice-skip job to fill after Fry's defection to Team Gushue, and opted to go with Kevin Park, who won a Brier with Martin way back in 1991.
"Those were big moves. They were front-page news in the Winnipeg papers," Harris says. "Both teams picked up good players."

Read the text and answer the questions.
The West Indies or Caribbean Basin is a region of the North Atlantic Ocean in the Caribbean that includes the island countries and surrounding waters of three major archipelagoes: the Greater Antilles, the Lesser Antilles and the Lucayan Archipelago.
The region is known as the area running from Florida westward along the Gulf Coast, and then south along the Mexican coast through Central America and then eastward across the northern coast of South America.
Bermuda is also included within the region even though it is in the west-central Atlantic, due to its common cultural history created by European colonization of the region, and in most of the region by the presence of a significant group of African descent.
Indigenous peoples were the first inhabitants of the West Indies. In 1492, Christopher Columbus became the first European to arrive at the islands, where he is believed by historians to have first stepped foot in the Bahamas. After the first of the voyages of Christopher Columbus to the Americas, Europeans began to use the term "West Indies" to distinguish the region from the East Indies of South Asia and Southeast Asia.
In the late sixteenth century, French, English and Dutch merchants and privateers began their operations in the Caribbean Sea, attacking Spanish and Portuguese shipping and coastal areas. They often took refuge and refitted their ships in the areas the Spanish could not conquer, including the islands of the Lesser Antilles, the northern coast of South America including the mouth of the Orinoco, and the Atlantic Coast of Central America. In the Lesser Antilles they managed to establish a foothold following the colonization of St Kitts in 1624 and Barbados in 1626, and when the Sugar Revolution took off in the mid-seventeenth century, they brought in thousands of Africans to work the fields and mills as slave laborers. These Africans wrought a demographic revolution, replacing or joining with either the indigenous Caribs or the European settlers who were there as indentured servants.
