the week it was, 5 October 2008

The world's share prices dropped as the anxiety over the fate of the US finance rescue bill. The bailout bill was passed. Three convicted Bali terrorists showed no fear on the death sentence, and doubt it would ever happen. Rob Guest has passed away. Here's the weekly The Week It Was. As usual, the clip is available in the usual H.264 format. Why do I use H.264 format? See this QuickTime codec comparison page and judge yourself.

It was almost ready for the US Government's bailout bill to pass last week, but failed. George W. Bush urged it, and it passed on Friday. The US Government labelled it "rescue plan". Three convicted Bali terrorists showed no fear on the death sentence, and doubted the death sentence would ever happen. Billionaire Steve Fossett's flight wreckage has been found. He was missing since he took off the plane in last September. Rob Guest had been starrring the musical ‘Wicked’ in Melbourne at the time of his stroke and died in the city's St Vincent's Hospital. He was also famous for playing Phantom for a seven years record.

No Weekend Sunrise next Sunday due to Bathurst 1000 (car racing), which means no The Week It Was next Sunday.
