and railway routes for millions of travelers trapped by cold weather.
More than 67 million people have been affected by the weather and economic losses are expected to reach
as much as $3 billion, Chinese officials say.
In the past week, the snowstorms have hit the provinces in central, eastern and southern China-places that
used to have mild winters.
"We"ve never seen such a cold weather lasting for such a long time," said Tang Shan, a man in his 70s
Changsha, Hunan Province. "The last time we had one here was over 50 years ago, and not this bad."
The snow has blocked roads, railways and airports, leaving tens of millions of travelers stranded (滞留),
officials say. Many of them are going home ahead of the traditional Lunar New Year, also known as the Spring
Festival.
The Lunar New Year travel is China"s busiest travel period of the year.But the snow is changing travel plans.
Railway and highway routes have been brought to a pause,a situation in which all activity or movement has
stopped and several regional airports have been closed.
In the southern city of Guangzhou, as many as 500,000 train passengers were stranded in the past few
days when a power failure in neighboring Hunan seriously damaged the regular train services, local officials
said. About 100,000 passengers crowded the square in front of the train station, while others found shelter
in schools and other public buildings while waiting for their trains.
More terrible weather is expected. China"s weather office on Monday issued a warning of more severe (恶
劣的) snowstorms in the coming days. If so, the number of stranded travelers will surely increase.

the district"s first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs.

By closing time at 9.20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks.
"Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good," Christy McKinley, a second year student,

The Academy cited Le Clezio as "author of new departures and poetic adventure, explorer of humanity
beyond civilization."
Le Clezio, 48, received much attention with his first novel The Interrogation in 1963 and made the
breakthrough as a novelist with Desert in 1980, for which he was rewarded a prize from the French
Academy.
This novel Dserte contains magnificent images of a lost culture in the North African desert, contrast
with a description of Europe seen through the eyes of unwanted immigrants, the Swedish Academy said
in the statement.
The emphasis in Le Clezio"s work has increasingly moved in the direction of an exploration of the
world of childhood and of his own family history, the academy added.
Le Clezio was born 1940 in Nice of France, but both parents had strong family connections with the
former French colony Mauritius. At the age of eight, he moved to Nigeria with his family. During the
month-long voyage to Nigeria, he began his literary career with two books Un long voyage and Oradi noir.
He has taught at universities in Bangkok, Mexico City, Boston, Austin and Albuquerque among other
places. Since the 1990s, Le Clezio and his wife share their time between Albuquerque in New Mexico, the
island of Mauritius and Nice.

The annual Nobel Prizes are usually announced in October and are handed out on Dec. 10, the anniversary
of the 1896 death of Alfred Nobel, a Swedish industrialist and the inventor of dynamite.

The Westborough High School golf team had taken the official photos with the state prize. The other
teams, disappointed, were on the bus heading home. And then Westborough instructor Greg Rota noticed
something wrong on one of the score cards. A 9 had been recorded as A 7. They were not the state prize
winner; Woburn High had won. "No one would have known," said Woburn"s instructor, Bob Doran. For
Rota, it wasn"t a difficult decision:"The prize wasn"t ours to take."
Coin Stars
"College students are lazy, but they also want to help," says University of Pennsylvania graduate Dana
Hork. So she made it easy, placing cups in rooms where students could leave their spare coins, and handing
out cups to first-year students to keep in their homes. Her "Change for Change" effort has collected $40,000
for charities, which were decided upon by students.
Never Forgotten
A school in Massachusetts received a $9.5 million check from Jacques LeBermuth. But it took officials
several days of digging to discover his connection to the school. Records showed the LeBermuth came from
