* "Snakebite antidote is running out:" http://www.bbc.com/news/health-34176581
* Basically, the people most likely to get bitten are poor, rural, children. If the family doesn't cath and kill the snake to show the Doctor, they can't use targeted anti-venom. The one they aren't making anymore is a broad spectrum for snakes in sub-Saharan Africa, so when the panicked parents turn up with a diung child in horrific pin, they can still save zim. The medicine costs $150.00 a dose, and a lot of the families are making as little as a dollar a day. Up until recently, there was a subsidy that made making it worth while for the pharmaceutical company, but it's not worth it for them if most of the people who need it can't afford it. Human beings are going to die terrible, painful deaths because of this.
* "China marks Tibet anniversary and condemns Dalai Lama:" http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2015/09/china-marks-tibet-anniversary-condemns-dalai-lama-150908041048779.html
* Brazil has been various kinds of fucked since the Portuguese invaded, one way or another. It is usually a matter of how fucked. Within my lifetime their greedy aristocracy teamed up with the World Bank to fuck their economy so thoroughly that them ever climbing out to achieve some level of functional as a government and economy is amazing. Things were looking up. And then they won the FIFA and Olympic bids, and responded by so thoroughly screwing over ordinary people, yet again, for self aggrandizing projects the greedy aristocrats wanted, and then went over the top on violent suppression of the people who work for a living who dared to protest against them dismantling the economy for this.... So Now they are officially internationally fucked. They just got downgraded to junk bond status, and things are likely about to go to shit on the grand scale, what with ongoing commitments and them systematically ripping up all their economic progress. My heart goes out to the ordinary people, the ones who are always made to pay in the place of the people actually responsible for the policies that keep destroying Brazil's chance at a decent standard of living and the real human misery that result.

* "Syria civilians still under chemical attack:" http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-34212324
* It is incredibly offensive that the BBC followed their graphic chemical attacks in Syria coverage with a segment calling Syrians economic migrants instead of War refugees. Did they not see their own coverage?
* "Obama turns to refugee crisis after Iran nuclear deal victory:"
* "House GOPer invokes 9/11 in anti-Iran deal vote:"
* So Micheal Stipe and REM are not amused by Trump appropriating "End of the World as We Know it" for his "moronic" campaign. They put out a rather biting statement about it. Survivor is already suing over the Antigay movement appropriating Eye of the tiger. Neil Young C & D'd Trump over him stealing one of his songs for his announcement event. It's like conservatives just can't grasp the concept of asking for consent.
