 Interesting observations in laboratory controlled E. Coli generations.  Of course, this won't change any of the creationist's minds, but it still is facinating.

E. Coli bacteria shows signs of evolution in lab testing

Despite an overwhelming body of scientific evidence, evolution is still a fiercely debate topic in some circles.  Many people take evolution for granted, simply understanding that it is the theory accepted by the scientific community based on the strong supporting evidence, and remain relatively oblivious to the controversy.  However, the fact remains that yearly there are many protests and court cases in the U.S. and abroad where people try to block educational attempts to teach the theory of evolution and replace them with religious-based theories.

Reuters Pictures of the Year

This set didn't have the impact on me that the next one did, but there are some amazing pictures in it.  Of course, there are some crap ones too.  Madonna flipping the camera off?  Is that really have any relavance in 2005?

I was more impressed by the Editors Choices (the first batch) than the Peoples Choices.  These photos have a soundtrack, which add to their value as well.

Enjoy.
