BEIJING [url=http://www.cheapuashoesoutlet.com/ua-micro-g/ua-micro-g-anatomix-spawn-ii.html]cheap under armour micro g anatomix spawn ii[/url] , June 15 (Xinhua) -- China's top economic planner said Thursday that it had approved eight fixed-asset investment (FAI) projects with total investment reaching 51.8 billion yuan (about 7.6 billion U.S. dollars) in May.

The projects were mainly in the areas of energy, water conservation and industrial production, according to Meng Wei, spokesperson with the National Development and Reform Commission.

China's FAI moderated in the first five months as the economy showed signs of firming up.

FAI grew 8.6 percent in the first five months year-on-year, down 0.3 percentage points from the January-April period, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.

FAI includes capital spent on infrastructure, property, machinery and other physical assets.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 10 (Xinhua) -- Disney and Pixar's animated "Coco" continued to lead the North American box office for a third weekend in a row raking an estimated 18.3 million U.S. dollars, pushing its total in North America to an impressive 135.5 million dollars through Sunday.

The animated comedy tells the story of a 12-year-old boy, Miguel, who dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol, Ernesto de la Cruz, despite his family's baffling generations-old ban on music. Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead following a mysterious chain of events.

Combined with an estimated international cume of 254 million dollars, the film's estimated global cume stands at 389.5 million dollars to date, according to the studio figures collected by comScore.

Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment's superhero film "Justice League" was in second place with an estimated 9.59 million dollars on its fourth weekend, bringing its North American cume to 212 million dollars and global cume to 613.3 million dollars to date.

"Justice League" is based on the DC Comics superhero team of the same name, consisting of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg.

In the third place, Lionsgate's heartwarming and brilliant family drama "Wonder" took in an estimated 8.45 million dollars on its fourth weekend.

Distributed by A24 in the United States and Warner Bros. Pictures in international markets, "The Disaster Artist," a biographical comedy-drama film, landed in the fourth place with an estimated 6.43 million dollars on its second weekend.

Disney and Marvel's "Thor: Ragnarok" finished fifth with an estimated 6.29 million dollars on its fifth weekend, pushing its total to 301.2 million dollars after 38 days in North American theaters. The film has earned 833.2 million dollars worldwide to date.

Seeking proper medical attention in time can save your heart, and your life, if you are experiencing chest pains.

Chest Pains are an early warning sign

Taking Mr Cliff Teo as a case study, it all began in 2007 when he accompanied his late wife, to see a doctor at Mount Alvernia Hospital. While at the hospital, Cliff felt acute chest pains. At his wife’s insistence, Cliff headed over to the hospital’s 24 Hour Walk-in Clinic & Emergency Department and was advised to be admitted for observation.
Truth be told, it was not the first time Cliff had been struck with such pains. For some time, he had been experiencing recurring tightness around the chest area and felt significant discomfort whenever he exercised.

Whenever Cliff went jogging around the neighbourhood, his chest literally felt like it was going to explode, especially during the first five minutes of exercising.

Though the discomfort subsided as he eased into the run, Cliff instinctively knew that something was wrong, but he shrugged it off.

Fortunately for Cliff, the doctors were able to diagnose the problem in time.

Upon admission to hospital, an Interventional Cardiologist ordered a battery of tests, including a stress test, ECG and treadmill sessions. The results showed about 70 per cent blockages of three sub arteries and complete blockage of his capillaries.

First line of defence

No direct medical intervention was required immediately, but the Cardiologist prescribed a concoction of medications and advised Cliff to make immediate lifestyle changes to bring his weight down. It was a wake-up call for the man whose friends call him “Superman”.

No longer in denial about his condition, Cliff set his mind on improving his health, cutting down on seafood, fried foods and curries. After consulting with the doctor, Cliff continued his gym workouts but followed a moderated exercise plan.

The commitment to a managed diet and regular exercise soon paid off. Within six months, Cliff lost 15 kg and brought his weight down to 92kg. Meanwhile he continued to see his Cardiologist every three months for regular review sessions.

During one such regular review earlier this year, tests showed a progression in the narrowing of the arteries.

Surgical Options

This time, the Cardiologist advised Cliff to consider a coronary angioplasty – a procedure in which surgeons use a balloon to widen a blocked heart artery, then implant a small, stent to hold the artery open and improve blood flow. This was the first option. Cliff’s second option was heart bypass surgery.
