I love reading the China Daily, China's english language newspaper / propaganda rag. Two stories from this morning stand out.
The first story was headlined "7 Imprisoned in Kidney Trading Case". It appears a Hunan teenager sold one of his kidneys in exchange for an iPad and an iPhone - they paper did not indicate what he previously traded his brain for. A surgeon and a few others will do 5 years each.
The second story involved wild animal poaching and the consumption of exotic creatures in Chinese restaurants. The acticle was not remarkable, but I now know that the market price for monkey brain is $115 a pound.
