China shut down its Xiaoshan Airport for an hour after Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) were reported in theZhejiang Province. The Airport authorities stopped the passengers from boarding plans and flights had to be grounded.
The sun has even got pictures of the UFO Sightings. In the image, the UFO can be seen as some kind of flying bus however in the video provided by The Sun, it seems more like a fireball. The picture and the video do not match at all.
Dozens of flights had to be diverted because of the issue. It has been suggested that the sighting was debris from a US Intercontinental ballistic missile by Chinese experts.
China officials said that the object had been identified but were unable to make it public because of military connections.

Since the Apple iPhone was announced, Chinese made knock-offs have been hitting the market. According to our estimates, more than a few million units of the “HiPhone” have been already sold in the market and are being used widely among users from Europe and South American countries.
These Chinese made knock-off’s are available in the market at a fraction of the cost of the iPhone, however offer tons of features which are comparable to a smart phone. Also there is a huge variety to choose from. Though some of the phones are running Windows Mobile, there are many devices that are running Linux. It is believed that these devices are running pirated copies of Windows Mobile.
The HiPhone might look like the Apple iPhone but the technology used in the real iPhone is so advanced that it is difficult to make an exact copy of the device. So far the Chinese made phones available in the market can only perform limited tasks as to that of an Apple iPhone.
The only reason I believe that they are selling in the market is because of their price and availability. The iPhone is available in many countries at only limited places and is one of the most expensive phones in the market at the moment unlike the HiPhone which is available in the many markets in the Asian countries and the price is quite cheap. Some people buy these phones because they have interesting features like dual sim, language options, operating system which attract a completely different set of audience.
Something to be noted is that these phones are made of low quality materials and break down easily. Also, many have pirated softwares and applications installed which means you cannot update your phone cause otherwise it might get locked. The phones also come with limited or no warranty and it can be difficult to get it repaired.
