AMID an outpouring of national pride, and some mutterings about cost, China this week achieved its long-standing ambition of launching a man into space and returning him successfully to Earth.

在铺天盖地的，为国家荣誉而发出的欢呼声，以及一些关于成本的怨言中，这个星期，中国达成了它长久以来的宏愿：送一个人上太空再让他安全返回地球。

Now that Shanghai Pride is over, perhaps we here in the gray Capital in the north should start thinking how we can turn all this gray to pink for a week of queer celebration.

现在上海骄傲周结束了，或许我们应该思考如何把天空灰蒙蒙的首都变成亮丽的粉色，举办下一次同志庆典。

The city's annual summer festivals are not limited solely to the Bare Buns Run, and include Pride Week (early August), western Canada's largest gay pride parade, MusicFest Vancouver (two weeks early August), an international music festival that hosts a free city-centre outdoor stage, and the Bard on the Beach festival (June-September), which sees the work of Shakespeare performed beside the water in a cheerful series of red-and-white circus tents.
