President closes soup kitchen

 

News brief (dateline Technopolis):Bubb-ya, World Wide Corporation president, in a move to consolidate the world movement against hunger and poverty, officially closed the world's last soup kitchen in New York City. The kitchen and shelter was the last of what has become an arcane symbol of economic repression that had threatened one-quarter of the world's population. Bubb-ya, when first appointed to his post, promised to eliminate hunger on the planet. He predicted that the research his company conducted on the Moon would lead the way to achieve this lofty goal.

 

Critics believe this is more symbolic than any concrete example of truly eradicating the world's poverty class. "It just covers up real poverty - the poverty of the mind and mental health. This world effort only mimics the past — the ineffective past efforts. It puts a political spin on it," said Gen. Marthy Grocnik, head of Salvation from Poverty, a world group dedicated to erasing misery in the world.

 

 

Strange vial found in Turkey excavation

 

News brief (dateline Kahramanmaras, Turkey): Archeologists and geologists looking for clues to the terrible earthquake 100 years ago, have found some artifacts from the ruins of that tragedy. Among them is what one digger called a "mysterious find," a vial the size of an old-time test tube.

 

Dr. Ted White, leading archeologist and all-around adventurer, commented later, "We are taking no chances. The world was chaotic then and there were terrorists bound for the destruction of the civilized world."

 

Handling the vial carefully, and dressed in a protective hazmat suit, he went on to say, "It could be one of those nerve gases we've read about. Or a virus strain that no longer exists in the world. Like measles. We are taking every precaution to protect the Earth's population from any harm. "

 

Looking up to where the Moon still glowed in the morning sky, he ended the interview with, "And protecting the Moon's population."

Tree headed for the MoonNews brief (dateline Olympia, WA):In a year of "Firsts," this has got to be the most impressive. The Save a Tree Society has donated a 25' fur tree for the Wintermas holidays celebration on Eagle's Landing.

 

"This is the first of our trees we have allowed to be used for decorating since 2023," said Geno Narducci, the chairman of the tree preservation organization. In the past, the Save the Tree Society has placed a ban on cutting down live trees for such frivolous activities as Wintermas decorating.

 

"But having the families visit the scientists and workers on the Moon colony - well, to honor those brave men and women, we knew this was the time to let up a little," he went on, clearly moved.

 

 

 

Artificial gravity makes Moonlife possible

 

News brief (dateline Houston, TX):The first visitors to the Moon won't take their first steps lurching around. They won't experience the atrophy of muscles and the disorientation to their surroundings that the groundbreaking astronauts did. Once they disembark from the space shuttle, their legs and arms will work just as they are supposed to

 

Artificial gravity has come to the rescue of our intrepid travelers. Developed back in the 00s, NASA, as the World Space Development Federation used to be known as, did pioneering work in the field of gravity, developing a "digitized virtual astronaut" to act as a test subject .
