Gold bracelets at a gold jewelry store in the Zhejiang Province of China. Thousands of people in China have been duped into forking out money on "fake gold" — inferior or artificial gold — after trying to purchase so-called "999 gold" online, according to the government. The purest form of gold is commonly referred to as 999 gold, because it has gold content of 99.9%. "Fake gold is becoming a major problem in China as more Chinese are looking to put their savings into gold," said China Market Research Group's Managing Director Shaun Rein. Fake gold gets darker or reveals a greenish color when placed under flame, while pure gold turns brighter on exposure to heat.

☆ The US went from having 356 to 10,000 roundabouts in 2 decades, and a transportation engineer explains why they're so much better than traffic lights

Experts say that this road feature reduces traffic and car crashes. I research transportation engineering, particularly traffic safety and traffic operations. The birth of the modern roundabout came with yield-at-entry regulations, adopted in some towns in Great Britain in the 1950s. The first modern roundabout in the U.S. was built in Summerlin, on the west side of Las Vegas, in 1990. Ever since, the construction of modern roundabouts in the U.S. has picked up steam.
