12/3

1. A man in India was arrested for letting his cell phone network circulate a joke about the Sikh religious community. Here’s the English version: “Why did the Sikh cross the road? Because he was a godless heathen who will burn in hell.” The punchline sort of gets lost in the translation, but it’s hilarious in the original.

2. A new study says that chimpanzees have been shown to have far better photographic memories than humans. More proof that if you’re going to get robbed, have a chimp there.

3. A new UN intelligence report about Iran says that the country stopped developing nuclear weapons in 2003. Are these the same people that told us Pakistan, India, and North Korea weren’t developing nuclear weapons?

4. Mitt Romney is going to give a speech addressing his Mormonism. He may have trouble reading the teleprompter, though, because he recently lost his magic spectacles.
