Will Trump restrain steel imports? Why many in GOP wouldn’t mind if he did Posted: 17 Jul 2017 01:51 PM PDT The US and China have just wrapped up 100 days of trade talks, heading into a bilateral economic summit this week in Washington. A month later, the administration will begin renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with partners Canada and Mexico. The administration has rattled its sword repeatedly since taking office.

In post-quake rebuilding, Kathmandu's carvers reclaim a fading heritage Posted: 17 Jul 2017 12:07 PM PDT In a workshop inside the courtyard of a 17th century palace, Tirtha Ram Shilpakar is surrounded by the guts of ancient temples. The floor around him is crowded with carved wooden beams, ashy with age. The walls are lined with pillars and detached windows. A few steps off lies a 11-foot wide doorway, dissected on the floor.

Creating a virtuous circle with North Korea Posted: 17 Jul 2017 11:44 AM PDT With tensions rising over North Korea's nuclear and missile capabilities, the new president of South Korea, Moon Jae-in, has decided to break what he calls "the vicious circle of military escalation." On July 17, his government offered to hold talks with North Korea. The two sides have not held talks since 2015, or just before North Korea began rapid advances in the firing range of its missiles. Any gradual engagement with North Korea now, Mr. Moon hopes, might lead to a virtuous circle of trust and goodwill that allows the two Korean nations to negotiate the difficult issues of nuclear disarmament and mutual recognition.

Why 'son et lumiere' shows light up French summer nights Posted: 17 Jul 2017 09:12 AM PDT Forget fireworks, we had son et lumiere. While the French are old hands at the artform, I had the feeling we were experiencing the show "Chroma" the way spectators did in 1952, when Paul Robert-Houdin officially introduced them to a brand new genre. The architect and curator, fittingly also the grandson of a famous French magician, projected special lights, set to accompanied sound, onto the facade of the Chateau de Chambord, a Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley, playing with spectators' sense of place and emotion.
