- New to Nature No 30: Pycnonotus hualon
The opening up of Laos to conservationists led to the discovery of a new bulbulThe first new Asian species of bulbul (songbird) in more than 100 years has been described from a limestone karst region of Laos. Bird inventories of the Lao People's Democratic Republic resumed in the 1990s after a hiatus lasting neary 40 years.Pycnonotus hualon is distinctive for its bald face, plumage details and coloration, and the whistled, dry bubbling notes of its song. The species name is from the Lao word hualon, which means bald-headed. The bird was discovered by scientists from the University of Melbourne and the Wildlife Conservation Society.Quentin Wheeler is director of the International Institute for Species Exploration, Arizona State UniversityZoologyAnimalsWildlifeConservationQuentin Wheelerguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

- How China's state investment fund works
The China Investment Corporation (CIC), tipped as a backer for the Liverpool FC buyout, has more than $330bn to splash out and an open mind on how to spend itThe China Investment Corporation (CIC) is a sovereign wealth fund set up three years ago by the communist government to get better returns from its huge foreign exchange reserves.The world's most populous country has stockpiled an estimated $2 trillion (£1.26tn) of currency because it exports many more billions of pounds of goods and services than it imports. The CIC, which is sitting on an investment war chest of some $332bn, is open-minded about where and what type of company it invests in. For example, its portfolio includes stakes in a Canadian coal mining company in Mongolia.The CIC has a complex structure with three layers of management including a board of directors, a board of supervisors and an overarching executive committee. However, power ultimately rests with Beijing's state council.The fund's investment gurus got off to a bad start in 2007 when investments in US bank Morgan Stanley and the stock market flotation of private equity firm Blackstone turned sour, earning it heavy criticism at home.Chastened, the CIC sat on the sidelines for much of 2008 before making a string of investments in commodities, mining assets and property – including taking a stake in Canary Wharf owner Songbird Estates – in 2009.At the start of this year the fund made a substantial investment in another private equity firm, Apax Partners, but if it were to back the buyout of Liverpool football club, it would be its first investment of this type.Sovereign wealth fundsChinaLiverpoolZoe Woodguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds
