On the morning trawl of the news. It is interesting to see the differences between the google.com and google.co.uk news. The story catching my eye in the uk is taken from here with research comparing Eastenders to real life "But the serial's characters are far more likely to come to a sticky end than the rest of the public, with 0.22 percent of the cast murdered per year compared to a national level of 0.0016 percent".

Wherehas the big international story (not featured at all in google.co.uk) is here which is a profoundly depressing tale of how we have virtually wiped out the oceans in the last 50 years (my lifetime!) reminds me that the whole world is going the same way as the Easter Islanders, they destroyed all their wood so they could no longer make boats to fish in - so starved to death! We are doing one better - destroy the ocean itself!
