Memorial Day for Mudslide Victims

Category: China

You likely heard of the recent mudslide in China which killed, I think, well over one thousand people.  Yesterday, was a Memorial Day for the victims.  I only learned about this late last night.  So, what did this entail?  Shutting down all entertainment businesses like theaters, dance clubs, and Karaoke bars.  All TV within China just showed a blue screen, reminiscent of Windows, with some text informing the viewer that today was a memorial day for the victims of the Gansu mudslide.
