We invited our readers to ask him about the extraordinary changes seen in China over the years.

Brown lives in Beijing. He first visited the country in 1989 during the protests in Beijing's Tiananmen Square.

"For centuries, foreign scholars, missionaries, traders, diplomats and journalists have been swapping explanations of why China is the way it is, how to handle it, and where it is going," he says in his book.

But Brown cautions it'll be difficult for observers to pinpoint accurate predications about China because the country is too big and complex, "and the Chinese too numerous and various."

How do they prepare for the games? What emotions precede an event like this? What is it like to compete in the Olympics?

Joan taught "Broadcast Announcing and Presentation" to 30 students.

Bernardo was interviewed at the Kingston penitentiary in June 2007 about whether he had any involvement in the disappearance of University of Toronto student Elizabeth Bain, who has not been seen since June 1990. Her then-boyfriend, Robert Baltovich, was originally convicted of second-degree murder in her death and spent eight years in jail before his acquittal by an Ontario Superior Court at a second trial last month.

His lawyers had argued that Bernardo should have been seen as a suspect in the disappearance because he had admitted to attacking women near the Scarborough campus that Bain attended.

The tape does not contain any graphic images or descriptions of Bernardo's crimes.

While several media outlets have decided to air the entire 31-minute interview either online or on-air, the CBC decided it would not run the footage in its entirety.
