Richard III’s DNA Shows Tudors May Have No Claim to the Throne

New research of Richard III’s body found under a parking lot calls into question England's most salacious royal dynasty.


Big deal. As if debauchery being part of Medieval aristocracy life was something new. And that dynasty is already gone, anyway. Tell me something new about the House of Windsor (apart from baby stories, that is).

Secular triumph as government bans creationism from free schools and academies

Creationism cannot be taught as a valid scientific theory in any free school or academy, the [British] government has said.

The move, which came in a little noticed document last week, marks a significant victory for secular campaigners, who have long fought to ensure the freedom granted to free schools and academies does not allow religious ideas to be taught in science classes.

So, seems like this time the UK won't be the US's trusted puppy to trot around Amurka's leg and pee with glee whenever a bomb explodes somewhere above Damascus, bringing Freedomdom&Democracycy(TM) to that ancient Al-Qaeda-controlled land.

May the experts in mini-world-wars and grassroots-revolutions start the bomb-shitting spree on their own, then I'm sure they'll make a few heroic movies about what great liberators they were. Perhaps one would present a plausible rendition of the special op that took Assad out and tossed him to the bottom of the sea. After all, there are some Oscars waiting to be distributed for next year.
