Dolphin Thought To Be Extinct

I was saddened to see on the news yesterday that a breed of freshwater dolphin is now thought to be extinct.

Yangtze River dolphins, which are only found in China, have been confirmed as the first extinction of a large vertebrae in over 50 years.

Researchers surveying the dolphins natural habitat have failed to gather any evidence of the species survival.

The extinction is being blamed on loss of habitat and human activity in the area.

Something has to be done before many of our other endangered species go the same way.

No Deal For Viewers

The Phone-in operator for Deal or No Deal on Channel four has been fined £30,000.

The game show, which is hosted by Noel Edmonds, asks viewers to phone in to be in with a chance of winning one of three cash prizes. However, the show is pre-recorded so the prize money was already set.

The operator I-Touch have been accused of mis-leading viewers with this phone-in and of therefore leading them to believe that the programme was live.

This new incident follows the many recent accusations and investigations made about television phone-ins and competitions.

Evan 'elp us

Evan Almighty, the follow up to Bruce Almighty is a comical modern take on the biblical story of Noah and his Ark.

After only being briefly introduced to Steve Carell in Bruce Almighty, his character Evan Baxter falls into the role of the main protagonist really well.

His character is much more likable in this follow up movie as we are introduced to his life.

The film is packed with adorable animal antics and humour as Evan tries to get to grips with the task God has given him. I take my hat off to the animal trainers.

Morgan Freeman returns as The Almighty and he is simply wonderful. He portrays a very lovable and fun character. His laugh is infectious.

The special effects in this film are really something, especially the flood near the end, it is flawless and well-shot.

I would recommend Evan Almighty to all comedy fans, it is definitely a big improvement on Bruce Almighty. A fun film for all of the family.
