Zombie: 9/11 Truth March at the Democratic National Convention
On the second day of the Democratic National Convention in Denver, a “truther” organization called We Are Change sponsored the “9/11 Truth March.” I didn’t expect more than a few dozen people to show up, but was surprised and a little disturbed at how large it turned out to be — the crowd numbered in the hundreds.

Zombie: I Went to Invesco and All I Got Was This Lousy Report
I tried to find the beginning of the line — a line which seemed to have no beginning or end. I made the mistake at first of trying to go toward the entrance. Foolish me.

Zombie: The Democratic Convention Giant Puppet Parade
On Tuesday, a group called The Backbone Campaign sponsored a parade they call "Procession to the Future," but which is better known in journalistic circles as Giant Puppets!

Not everything that happens outside the Democratic National Convention fits into a “theme” of some sort. The following series of images were all taken within the space of two hours. Here's a more gut-level impression of what walking around Denver is like this week.

None Dare Call It Ransom

By sheer coincidence, shortly after Libya freed the Bulgarian nurses, Bulgaria is going to waive $57 million of Libyan debt.

Bulgaria is to waive $57m (£29m) of debt it is owed by Libya following the release of six medics convicted of infecting Libyan children with HIV.

Instead the money will be diverted to an international fund for the victims and their families, officials said.

The five nurses and a Palestinian-born doctor, who served eight years of the life sentences they received, had always maintained they were innocent. They were pardoned by the president on their arrival in Bulgaria last month.

“With these funds Bulgaria aims to help Libya in its efforts to modernise its medical infrastructure, to contribute for the treatment of the HIV-infected children and for paying financial aid to their families,” the BTA news agency quoted a government spokesman as saying.
