Top 5-Stolen iPhone takes woman's photo, e-mails it to owner (very nice)
Smile, you're on candid camera! A woman in Britain inadvertently took her photo when she tried to unlock a stolen iPhone -- and the phone e-mailed the photo, and her location, to its owner. Sussex police released the photo Monday. The photo was taken by an iPhone that was stolen from the Coalition nightclub in Brighton earlier in December,
police said. The phone's owner had installed an app that takes a photo of anyone who tries to unlock it, maps the phone's location and e-mails that information to the owner, police said. "We know where and when the photo was taken and it appears to be in a vehicle with quite a large sunroof," PC Gavin Crute said in a release. "We don't know that the woman is the person who stole the camera, but she obviously has had some connection with it in the meantime and I'd like to speak to her about it."

Top 3-Gay sex improves chances with girls for one species of promiscuous fish-wow nice one
IN an unusual mating strategy, hard-up males of a tiny, promiscuous fish species engage in homosexual acts in a bid to entice females to copulate with them.
And it works.
Researchers said small, non-dominant Atlantic molly males, often overlooked for larger, flashier rivals as mating partners, rose vastly in the esteem of females that observed them copulating -- regardless of the partner's sex. Some female animals are known to show a preference for mating with males they had observed coupling with other females in a phenomenon known as "mate choice copying’ ‘This allows them to evaluate the quality of a potential mate from a distance.For this study, the researchers set out to show that homosexual behaviour in the tropical freshwater fish Poecilia mexicana would similarly boost a drabber male's chances of heterosexual coupling.
"P. mexicana females increase their preference for initially non-preferred males not only after observing those males interacting sexually with females, but also when having observed them initiating homosexual behaviour,'' the team wrote of their findings in the journal Royal Society Biology Letters. Normally, females of the species, a popular tropical aquarium fish and close relative of the better-known guppy, show a preference for large, colourful and dominant males."As homosexual behaviour is regularly seen in small P.mexicana males, we speculate that it might represent an alternative mating tactic used by subordinate, and thus, less attractive males, the University of Frankfurt researchers wrote. And they cited a quote attributed to US filmmaker Woody Allen that "bisexuality immediately doubles your chances for a date on Saturday night''."Direct benefits for males of exhibiting homosexual behaviour may help explain its occurrence and persistence in species in which females rely on mate choice copying as one component of mate quality assessment,'' said the study.
Top 2-Weird Facts about 12/12/12
Poor Dec. 12. It’s one of the years more interesting dates, but Dec. 21, what with all its doomsday this and end-of-the-world that, is completely monopolizing the spotlight. Sure, Dec. 21 is the winter solstice and the day that countless legions of gloomy doomsayers have anointed as the pinnacle of important dates, but Dec. 12 deserves some attention too. So in honor of the 346th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar, here’s what Dec. 12 has to offer:
The Astronomical Society of the Pacific has declared Dec. 12, 2012, as Anti-Doomsday Day in celebration of rational thinking and reasoned discourse.
Dec. 12 is the last of the repeating dates until Jan. 1, 2101. Repeating dates (like 12/12/12) can, for obvious reasons, only occur in the first 12 years of a century.
At 12:12:12 p.m., the day will offer fans of the number 12 a whopping six repeats! 12/12/12 12:12:12. Nice.
At 1:21:02 a.m., palindrome lovers everywhere can rejoice in the single second that marks when the date-time combination is the same read both forwards and backwards: 2012-12-12 1:21:02 = 201212-1-212102.
Dec. 12 has been an auspicious day for the arts. "Madame Bovary" author Gustave Flaubert was born on the date in 1821, followed by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863), the ‘ol blue-eyed crooner Frank Sinatra (1915), abstract expressionist Helen Frankenthaler (1928), San-Jose seeking Dionne Warwick (1940), and jazz drummer extraordinaire, Tony Williams (1945).
Dec. 12 hasn’t proven to be an exceedingly popular day for famous deaths, however English poet Robert Browning, Baroness Spencer-Churchill (wife of Winston) and Ike Turner all hold the honor.
But perhaps most fascinating of all, Dec. 12 is National Ambrosia Day; once known as food to the gods, now known as canned fruit combined with Cool Whip, sweetened coconut, mini-marshmallows, and the food-dye bombs called maraschino cherries. This leads us to think that perhaps Dec. 12 would have made a good candidate for doomsday after all.
Top 1-Adult store's sexy window display stirs up controversy (Why this fuss?)
OTTAWA -- A sexually explicit display of Barbi and Ken dolls in the front window of an adult store in the city's Centertown neighbourhood is getting residents hot and bothered. The display in Wicked Wanda's Adult Emporium sex shop has been up for less than a week but folks are already divided over what is obscene and what is publicly permissible in the swinging. Inspired by the Fifty Shades of Gray popular erotic novels, store manager Mel Lockhart and her staff posed nearly a dozen Barbie and Ken dolls in a variety of sexual positions depicted in the novels, including Ken and Barbie, Ken and Ken and Barbie and Barbie engaged in oral, anal sex and other shenanigans. Even though there is no nudity -- the dolls don't even have genitals -- the display is as raunchy and hard-core as doll play can get.
