The first-graders at Karen Acres recently celebrated the 100th day of school. Did you know that a pound of Skittles includes more than 900 pieces of candy? Janine Choudhury's class counted by sets of 10 to find out.
UK takes tough stance on piracy
This legislation would mean the UK would have the most stringent and prohibitive anti-piracy laws in the world. It would be a technical challenge for ISPs to do this. Monitoring traffic that is shared using file-sharing tools like BitTorrent is perfectly feasible - as the programs use specific internet ports. In fact, ISPs already monitor file-sharing traffic across the net in order to shape the flow of information - prioritising certain bits of data over others. Knowing where to look isn't the problem; knowing what to look for is. Every day many terabytes of data are being shared over the internet using file-sharing tools. Individual packets of information can be inspected - but who can tell if Person A is sharing an MP3 file of his own band performing with Person B or if it's the latest Kylie track? Would all digital content have to be watermarked? Would ISPs have responsibility for this? If not, who would? And there is evidence that more people are encrypting files that they send over peer to peer networks, making it difficult to know exactly what they are sharing.

Schwarzenegger faced off against teachers - and lost - in the 2005 special election when the governor backed a package of ballot measures intended to increase his ability to cut spending, reduce the power of public employee unions and require teachers to work more years before attaining tenure. In the weeks before the election, it was almost impossible to watch television in the Golden State without viewing teacher-backed ads against the ballot measures. Aaron McLear, a .
System may boost bus safety
While sweeping changes are unlikely, Rutherford County school board members say they will consider less expensive options to bolster school bus safety following an alleged attack on a 14-year-old girl riding a bus. Many parents have called for bus monitors to accompany drivers a solution, district officials say, would cost taxpayers more than $3 million a year. .
Kerry Katona’s husband tells lover: marriage is all about the money
A woman, Samantha Riaz, has claimed she had a brief affair with former taxi driver Mark last summer but only found out he was married after the relationship came to an end. However, she told the Sun, his wedding vows - and the fact Kerry is currently heavily pregnant with his child - didn't stop Mark from calling her again last week. Samantha told the newspaper that she then asked him directly about his marriage and after initially denying it, she asked specifically about Kerry and he replied: "It's not like that. She's alright, but, she's not my cup of tea. It's about the money, innit? Forget her." Mark is also said to have had a fling with a barmaid shortly before marrying Kerry last February, just weeks before the I'm a Celebrity… star gave birth to their daughter Heidi.
Wild Card -- Weekend
Only 3 more days until we get after it again in the new year. I hope you're enjoying yourselves as 2005 comes to an end. If you have some thoughts on the old year or resolutions for the new one, you can post it here. Or start your own thread. Or wait until Tuesday ... .
