News


It's a bad day for Politics students and newsreaders everywhere as Polish president Lech Kaczynski prepares to announce his twin brother as prime minister.
Just thought it was interesting.

Also news related, have you ever come across 10x10? It's a website that monitors the news wires and picks out the top 100 words being used in the news for every hour. It's quite an intriguing visualization of what's going on in the world at any given moment.

'Zidane' is word number 36 at the moment, and 'Italy' is only number 52. If I were Italian I'd be a little upset at the news today. All the headlines are about Zidane, and I'd be going "excuse me, world champions, yes? Italy?"
