I'm pretty sure you guys are referring to the bookstore NEXT to World Journal Chinese daily…read more "Chinese Daily" should tip it off, but World Journal Chinese Daily News is a daily chinese newspaper that is published daily and has nothing to do with the bookstore.. The bookstore used to also be called World Journal and happens to be next door, I believe it is renamed to Supearl Cup now.

Remember that show that was on TV where some people would intentionally watch a movie they didn't…read morelike, then complain to one another that they were watching a movie they didn't like, making jokes to one another so they felt like they were funny? Now there's a newspaper version. The Weekly Dig used to have at least one article each issue -- several, usually -- that actually *added* something to the world, rather than simply comment on, complained about, or advertised it. But no, actual original content has fallen far down the ladder behind "personality" pieces -- articles in which the real subject is the author him/herself, and the purported topic is just the vehicle for this person to showcase their idea of how funny/annoyed/cool they want you to know they are. In fact it's sort of like this one web site that's popular nowadays, you know the one... Seriously, it goes out of its way to make Stuff at Night look sincere. Is that really worth the trouble?

I'm looking at this star-rating thing wondering what to say needs improving on The Dig to justify…read moreonly giving in 4 out of 5, and I'm drawing a blank. Too many adverts? Not really - compared to other freebie magazines it's far more reasonable. Too short? Nope - that's a bonus for me - a svelte tome is much more up my street than a hefty wad. Too immature and snarky? Come on, we're on Yelp here - that's our style too. So 5 out of 5 it is. Keep up the great work and the great artwork. Now give me a job please.

They help new immigrant, not just Asians, assimilate to their new home. We provide job training, job placement, ESL and immigration services. My father was one of those recipients. If you are looking to volunteer then AACA is more than deserving of your time and charity as most, if not all, can trace someone in their family who immigrated here for a better life. The people who work there are passionate, dedicated and care about making a difference.
