Headlines, and a Parallel Syria
Rex Latchford with another DayPage… to start out your week. The beleaguerd Westgate mall in Nairobi is still suffering a state of seige. Just a few minutes ago as we broadcast this DayPage – more gunshits and explosions even as Kenyan authorities claimed “most” of the mall to be under the control of the military.
Despite kvetching by Rublicans in Washington – the lobby of the rich – most Americans want The Affordable Healthcare Act – known popularly as Obamacare. The reason being the impossible soaring of medical costs. Without Obamacare, or, we wish, something better… this would become a nation of “have and have nots”… medical care that is. The NY Times is reporting consumers should be prepared for “much tighter, narrower networks” of doctors and hospitals. Sigh, our government just can’t seem to get anything right these days…
Breaking Bad, the television series, won an Emmy last night. UK Supermarket Tesco launches an inexpensive tablet computer. Lamborghini is bullish on the US and India as a crackdown hits China sales of the luxury car. A jailed member of Russia’s Pussy Riot goes on a hunger strike to protest conditions in her jail.
When the going gets tough, DayPage… well… reads the comics…
[ Rex describes an alien comic strip detailing events in a parallel universe…]
That’s another DayPage, on the web at DayPage.net – it’s a production of Radio InfoWeb and I’ll see you for another turn of the DayPage… tomorrow!
