Virginia apoligizes for sterilizing people
Quote:The state of Virginia has become the first American state to apologise for the forced sterilisation of thousands of its citizens as part of a eugenics, or selective breeding, programme in the last century.
In all, 30 states conducted sterilisation programmes - in Virginia's case until 1979 - in an effort to wipe out human deficiencies and vices assumed to be hereditary.
Monkey elected UK mayor
Quote:H'Angus the Monkey has been elected mayor of Hartlepool in a victory for the mascot of the town's football team.
The win comes in the town whose residents are famously said to have hanged a monkey during the Napoleonic wars because they thought it was a French spy.
Couldn't decide which story was more interesting.

It was "Every Which Way But Loose."
The sequel was "Any Which Way You Can."
The Orangatan's name was "Clyde." As in "Right turn, Clyde."
Clint Eastwood was the mayor of Carmel, Ca.
