In
a world as vast as Earth, there is a lot going on, some of which may not be
front page worthy. Here is some weird, wacky, worldwide news:
Autism
rates are rising, with one in sixty-eight children diagnosed with autism.
Former
presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton were seen sitting next to each other
at the NCAA men’s basketball final in Arlington, Texas; this is a surprise to
many as the two are not known to be friends due to vastly different political
views.
Eight-month-old
Prince George is on his first royal tour. While visiting Wellington, New
Zealand he attended a parent support group, in which he got to play with other
children. However, at one point, he stole a doll from one of his peers, but his
mother, Kate Middleton, returned it. I guess royals aren’t so different from
us.
Carol
Thebarge, a 79-year-old substitute teacher in New Hampshire quits her job,
rather than “unfriend” her students on Facebook, after given the ultimatum.
A
lawsuit is taking place in West Babylon, New York, by 85-year-old nursing home
resident Bernice Youngblood after allegedly becoming a victim of “disgraceful
sexual perversion.” This happened when a male stripper came to the nursing home
to perform a show. The state Health Department is investigating the incident.
Pennsylvania
State University raised $13.3 million for pediatric cancer research in their
Dance Marathon, where students danced without sitting, sleeping, or even
consuming caffeine for 46 straight hours.
