Compiling figures on production, acreage and trade movements is a gigantic task, especially since some countries do not keep meticulous records of these figures. Even so, the AIPH still manages to publish a comprehensive handbook each year, containing statistics from all affiliated countries.
The book is packed with tables, diagrams and surveys, classified according to country, plant, market and consumption, and as such is a useful reference book for organizations, policy makers, marketeers, producers and traders. In colletions of libraries, universities and schools it should be accessible for research workers and students.


A yearbook, also known as an annual, is a book to record, highlight, and commemorate the past year of a school or a book published annually. Virtually all American, Australian and Canadian high schools, most colleges and many elementary and middle schools publish yearbooks. The term may also refer to a book of statistics or facts published annually.

But the summer festival in Moscow offers a parallel universe of entertainment, consumption and comfort. Think Berlin in the early 1940s. Just how durable is the Russian capital’s dual reality?...

 In Putin’s Moscow a summer of death and distraction

The Economist today
普丁治下的莫斯科,一個充滿死亡與紛擾的夏天
今日《經濟學人》
據估計,本月在烏克蘭的俄羅斯傷亡人數已超過100萬人。弗拉基米爾·普丁對本國公民的控制愈發嚴厲。然而,莫斯科的夏季節慶提供了一個娛樂、消費和舒適的平行世界。想想20世紀40年代初期的柏林。俄羅斯首都的雙重現實究竟能持續多久?
The number of Russian casualties in Ukraine is thought to have passed 1m this month. Vladimir Putin’s grip on his own citizens grows ever tighter. But the summer festival in Moscow offers a parallel universe of entertainment, consumption and comfort. Think Berlin in the early 1940s. Just how durable is the Russian capital’s dual reality?...

The bakeries and food halls are immaculate.

 




Why do I like living in Japan? It's safe, it's clean, and it has order. There are very few surprises. Trains are on time. When you go to a restaurant, the food that arrives is exactly like it is pictured. The bakeries and food halls are immaculate. Shop workers are professional, have manners and take their jobs seriously – no phones in sight, or even talking to their coworkers about personal things. For the most part, the streets are spotless, especially in the suburban areas. You are unlikely to see weeds or stray rocks on the ground, let alone trash. I have heard some people say that the silent trains have no life, but as someone who values peace and quiet, it suits me perfectly. It is an OCD paradise, a place built for introverts as much as extroverts. I don't know how Tokyo manages it, but despite being one of the busiest cities in the world, I have found a calmness unmatched by anywhere else. Seeing a line of workers on the train platform today, cleaning a barrier that wasn't even that dirty to begin with, shows me a sense of pride, that every detail is important, and deserves attention and respect.
