Another perfect job. You're on a roll! (これは成功が連続しているときに使われる言葉ですよ。)
Just one tiny thing: Technically, "Liu Xiaobo's wife, Liu Xia freed" should be written "Liu Xiaobo's wife, Liu Xia, freed" with an extra comma after her name, since in this case, the commas encapsulate the explanatory information. Not a big deal at all, and it might just be a typo, but I thought that you might want to know.
Jon-san,
Thank you.
I should pay attention to the "comma".
