...people kept getting sick, and as news of fresh victims leaked out, Hu's efforts to shape his new government in a populist, people-first mold have been undermined. China's booming economy, which grew nearly 10% in the first quarter, is feeling the fallout, too. The volume of fast-food sales in chains like McDonald's and KFC fell 20% in southern China in recent weeks, according an industry source (KFC confirms sales fell but says they are now returning to normal). Despite the WHO's travel warning, the government refused to cancel its twice-yearly Guangzhou Trade Fair...
...party somewhere else. I'm just appalled at that, that our public people are like that. You have a district attorney calling this a slam-dunk before there's even an arraignment.

You can also keep your employer from disclosing the fact that you are sick, and if you'd rather your employer not know either, you can restrict the information available about you through your health plan...
...that was easy to see but hard to know, as 24-hour news took advantage of technology and access but often hurriedly picked up unconfirmable reports, albeit with caveats. "It's a hazard of the electronic-journalism game," says msnbc president Erik Sorenson. "My staff is so sick of me saying the word attribution." There is always the fog of war, but like smog trapped by a heat inversion, it was compounded by hot air, as anchors vamped to fill time and pushed guests to speculate. If anything, the fog grew thicker as the bombing slowed. The allies killed Saddam...
