  From the WSJ: Protests have even spread into the heart of Beijing. On Wednesday, some three dozen laid-off workers from a liquor factory in northern China's Heilongjiang province stood in silent protest in the lobby of the downtown headquarters of China Resources Holding Ltd., a large conglomerate with several units listed in Hong Kong. The protesters held a long white banner demanding fairer treatment in the company's layoffs and restructuring, and some said salaries hadn't been paid in months.
