The conspicuous absence of any mention of a nominated film at a news conference for the 17th Shanghai International Film Festival made headlines across the nation.

Down by the dock, in an old gray stone warehouse, stands the newly re-crowned "Best Restaurant in the World 2014", tucked among construction sites in the bohemian Christianshavn quarter of Copenhagen. Noma's Danish-Macedonian head chef and co-owner Rene Redzepi, chewing an apple, offers some dark brown sauce for me to try.

Editor's Note: The Silk Roads: The initial Section of the Silk Roads, the Routes Network of Tian-shan Corridor has been nominated to be inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage list. The result of this international application involving China, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan will be released later this week during the 38th session of the World Heritage Committee currently being held in Doha, Qatar. The application included 33 historical sites, which includes 22 in four of China's provincial-level administrative regions: Shaanxi, Henan and Gansu provinces, and the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region (with exclusion of two sites on the route, which have already been listed as World Heritage sites - the Mogao Caves and Longmen Grottoes) plus eight in Kazakhstan and three in Kyrgyzstan.
