I dont know I just thought this was weird.
A recent survey of 2,060, showed that only around half of the population in the UK believes that evolution is real. Nearly 12% surveyed said they believed intelligent design over evolution while others mixed the two ideas together in their beliefs.
James Williams of Sussex University said, “Evolution is a theory and a fact. You accept it because of the evidence. What the creationists have done is put a cloak of pseudo-science to wrap up their religious belief.”
The survey also found that about 10% believed in the young earth theory where it is thought that the Earth was created by God in the last 10,000 years. The survey was performed to coincide with the 150th anniversary of On the Origin of Species.

Aerosmith Forced To Perform Free Concert In Hawaii
In 2007, rock-band Aerosmith was a no-show a scheduled concert in Hawaii for over 8,000 fans. A class-action proceeding by several of those fans resulted in the band being ordered to play a free concert in Maui.
An attorney representing the litigating fans said that everyone who had bought a ticket to the initial concert would get a free ticket plus any expenses, including travel, that occurred.
Aerosmith's attorney said that the band was happy with the decision.
What I don't get is why it took 2 years for them to reconcile, and now they say they are 'happy with the decision'? I like Aerosmith, but I can't stand big bands. They always forget about the fans that made them big. They become greedy and careless..

Adam Lambert Is Gay is it going to Effect American Idol
Adam Lambert is amazing singer but he is gay. Should that effect Adam in American Idol? Gay people become huge celebrities if he is gay or not. Adam Lambert rocks the stage on American Idol and I think he will be next winner. The only way this could take a negative effect if the media really becomes biased and goes against Mr. Lambert. Maybe Adam is only experimenting but still in the end it seems that he will become famous and make a lot of money not matter if he is gay or not!

Baby shaking game taken off iPhone
On Wednesday April 22,2009 Apple Inc pulled a game called "Baby Shaker" off of the iTunes store. This game prompt an outrage because on it you try to quiet down a baby who is crying by shaking it. The game displays black and white drawings of a baby.
The description of this game on the iTunes store said " See how long you can endure the babies cries before you have to find a way to quiet it down". To quiet down the baby the iPhone owner shakes the device and big red X's appear over the eyes.
An apple spokesperson said this game went on sale on Monday and was removed by Wednesday. The spokesperson did not said why the game was approved to be sold. Apple said it screens each iPhone application and gives little feedback on them.
This is just. . . well. . . just plain stupid! Why would you encourage Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS), even if it's virtual? God, people are so dumb.

Mothers to Stand Trial for Feeding Their Infants Pureed Takeaway
The mothers of two infants, one aged 13 months and the other 16 months at the time of arrest, have been ordered to stand trial for child cruelty. They fed their infants pureed pizza and pork crackling and other takeaway foods diluted with water.
The children, now aged 2 and 21 months were so malnourished they would have died had not authorities intervened. Elena Mantz, pediatrician, stated that the children were not even able to hold their heads up unassisted or even sit up.
The trial will take place in Cairns in Northern Queensland, Australia.
This story was just posted on shortnews.com. It just goes to show how stupid people really are, and how uneducated the world is. I have a big problem with people procreating without any idea of what it is they are doing. I just cannot stand idiots having kids, then raising them to be just as stupid as they are, that is if they are even able to raise them. This is perfect case of an idiot having kids, that has no clue what they are doing, and doesn't even hold themselves accountable. I mean, who doesn't have enough brain cells to deduct that feeding a baby Pizza Hut through a straw is not good for him... This is just one story.. there are millions of stories of parents having children that simply should not...

Sex in The Fast Lane
I thought this was pritty cool but totally dumb!
A man in Norway who was caught going 133 km/h in a 100 km/h (82 mph in a 62 mph) zone in a Mazda 323 while having sex is facing a heavy fine. Police spotted the man, 28, and his girlfriend, 22, about 40 km west of Oslo on the E18 highway late Sunday.
Soendre Buskerund district police superintendent Tor Stein Hagen said, "It was veering from one side to the other because the woman was sitting on the man's lap while he was driving and doing the act, shall we say."
"He couldn't see much because her back was in the way," said Hagen. The incident was filmed and will be used as evidence against him; it's likely he will face a lengthy driving ban and "several thousand Norwegian crowns" in fines.
Pritty crazy. I wonder if the judge asked him if it was worth it.

Politician Angry Over 'Gay' Elephant Acquisition
Poland: Councillor Michal Grzes from the conservative Law and Justice party has lashed out at the Poznan zoo for acquiring Ninio, an elephant which appears to prefer the company of other males and is no certainty to reproduce.
"We didn't pay 37 million zlotys for the largest elephant house in Europe to have a gay elephant live there. We were supposed to have a herd, but as Ninio prefers male friends over females how will he produce offspring?", said Grzes. How about you adopt?
According to the zoo head, Ninio is possibly too young to identify a clear preference. Ninio is only 10 and will not reach sexual maturity for another four years.
This just shows how prude the world is about homosexuality...
