And now China too suffers a natural disaster.
The worst Earthquake to hit the nation in over 30 years shook the country this week, killing an estimated 15,000 in the Sichuan province. That number is likely to only increase from here, sadly.
China has made great strides in recent years towards becoming a modern, industrialized, capitalist power. Yet the progress has not been evenly distributed, and significant parts of the nation, such as Sichuan, still languish under decrepit Mao-era infrastructure. When emergencies occur, everything always has to be flown out from Beijing because that's the only place with access to modern technology.
The country may ultimately be a victim of its own size, however. How do you equally distribute your resources across a nation of 1.3 billion?

| Excuses are boring, so I will skip them. I need to take a break from Filibuster for a while while I work on some other more pressing projects in my life.
You can amuse yourselves with this very uninteresting website which consumes so much of my time these days:

| Since they seem to be all the rage these days, I have made a simple little chart showing the timelines of recent presidential primaries in the United States.

| I will probably live to regret this, but I have decided to start another blog. As you may know, one issue I feel quite strongly about is the need for constitutional reform in Canada, especially the abolishment of the British monarchy.
I was recently promoted to Vancouver head of the Canadian republican movement, so I decided now would be a primo time to start a new blog in which I can have an open forum to discuss the republic-vs-monarchy issue. In the new year, I may decide to merge this new blog with Head of State Update, and create something more consolodated.
Anyway, for the time being, check out: The Republic of J.J.

| Comics have been light, I admit. But I have a lot of work outside of Filibuster which has been eating up a ton of my free time.
The death of Robert Dziekanski, which I cartooned a couple weeks ago, continues to be a big story where I live. So I've begun work on a website to chronicle all the information about the case.
Check out:
