- In the year 2012, the number of Catholics increased by 15,000,000 throughout the world, to a grand total of 1,228,621,000. And the media keeps telling us no one is interested in the Church.
- Martin Pistorius just awoke from a 12-year "vegetative state" and says, "I was aware of everything, just like any normal person." Be careful what you say.
- 15% of accidents on Italian roads are caused by smoking, which distracts the drivers.
- The Supreme Court in Indian has ruled in favor of Fishers Adolescent Catholic Enrichment Society, a Catholic home school group sued for not provided a beef meal to a student who cannot eat chicken. Lawsuits are becoming more and more ridiculous. One wonders why they're accepted in the courts in the first place.
- The principal of W. F. Burns Middle School in Valley, Alabama has written to the parents of her pupils to explain that the students will soon be armed with cans of food (yes, you read that correctly) to defend against possible attacks. A friend from high school suggested the students also be armed with frozen pork chops to defend against Islamic terrorists.
- A new survey suggests that reading real books instead of reading from an e-reader is better for you. Frankly, I'm not surprised.
- In an attempt not to offend Muslim or Jewish readers, Oxford University Press has issued a ban on the word pig or "anything else which could be perceived as pork." So much for academic freedom and intellectual activity.
