1. Nation's first LGBT magazine editor and US embassy worker in Bangladesh hacked down along with companion. I think the Bangladeshi state has become a big concern for the following reason - it is a highly populous country with a rising literacy rate (at least in terms of primary education). such a dense populace with literacy without proper higher education armed with the power of the internet is extremely sensitive to propaganda. i have a sick feeling that one of the alternate realities possible has Bangladesh serving as a powder keg that served a source of Jihadists in a WWIII.
2) Tom Brady's suspension to be or not to be reinstated. Beautiful (but ineffective, to the yet to be learned dismay of the provocateurs) distraction during a vital time on Earth.
footnote: According to PressTV News Videos on YouTube (afaik a channel from Iran) says that all warring sides on Yemen agree on calling a truce except the government loyalists and Saudi Arabia.
edit: removed "state run" - I assumed that.
