A bulldozer waits instructions to demolish a house, adorned with an Olympic flag and posters of former Chinese leaders Deng Xiaoping and Mao Zedong, plus the current Premier Wen Jiabao and President Hu Jintao, marked for demolition in Beijing July 16, 2008. The house was covered with tarps by police. The owner of the house, Yu Pingju, says if the government goes through with its threats to demolish her house, that she has adorned with an Olympic flag and pictures of Chinese leaders she hopes will intervene on her behalf, she may have to watch August's Beijing Games on the street. With less than a month to go, forced evictions to make way for Olympic venues and other projects to spruce up China's grimy capital, is making life miserable for many people.
