Over the past several weeks, I've travelled on various trains and the London Underground (the Tube) to get to work.

I've been impressed with the number of foreign languages I've heard.

When I regularly traveled on the Tube a few years ago, most people spoke English, even if they were speaking with a heavy accent.

Now I hardly ever hear English, even the Underground staff can often be heard speaking to one another in foreign tongues.

I can't help but wonder how many words British English is going to pick up from this influx of visitors, as it has from all the others in the past.

Many newspapers are reporting that teachers and some scientists are suggesting that creationism should be taught in school science classes, see:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/2988753/Creationism-should-be-taught-in-science-lessons-say-teachers.html

I must admit that after careful consideration and thought, I've decided they are all correct, provided... all religious organisations start allowing and paying for the teaching of Science in all it's forms, as part of their Religious services.

Seems fair to me!

I have three emails accounts I use from home. One is targeted for work, one I used socially and the third is the one I use for registering when asked for an email address. The third one gets so much spam, I hardly ever use it except to go on to delete spam.

On my social email address I hardly ever get spam... usually the only spam I get are those who I've decided I don't want to read their emails anymore and I've marked their email addresses as spam.

My work email address until recently I never got spam. But over the last few months, while looking for a new contract, I started to get spam for drugs, rollex watches and sex sites... all items I have never searched for or suggested in any of my work emails that I might want to purchase any of these items.

Those who send these spam, must do so to make money, but it really makes me wonder how they stay in business... Do that many people actually click through and purchase fake rollex watches to pay for someone to go through the trouble? Selling real Rollex watches now, selling one $10,000 watch, would pay for a lot of emails though.

It makes me wonder if someone did a study which showed that for every 10,000 bogus rollex emails sent, it meant that another real Rollex was purchased, and that when more emails get sent, more people decide to purchase the real thing

It would certainly explain the increase in spam in my box.

I get so many thoughts during the day, I have to remember to type them out on here, even if no one else ever reads them, at least I get a release from the thoughts that invade my head.

I read a lot of scientific journals... for my enjoyment I hasten to add, no one says I have to read them, I just enjoy it. And sometimes I put things together on reading them.

Corn Syrup, and more importantly High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is used more and more in our foods and drinks.

Now in a study, that has just been released this week, it seems that animals that have a lot of fructose in their diet, (and no matter what others say, we are animals), are more likely to to become obese and to develop diabetes.

Before anyone says anything, they have also studied humans on diets high in fructose, and found that we humans are more likely to become obese on the diet and perhaps the diabetes is the same.

So why don't they use Corn Syrup for alcohol to run our cars, and leave it out of our foods?
