Blue Honey?

Bee-keepers in Northern France have been shocked to see that their bees have been producing blue and green honey! The bee-keepers think that the source of the problem is a nearby bio gas plant. It is also thought that the bees have been eating the sugary waste from M&Ms. The bio gas said that they have put a procedure in place so that it won't happen again. The company that deals with the M&M waste say that they will clean out all of their containers, and store all incoming waste in airtight containers so that the bees can't get in and eat any more. The blue honey on the other hand is unsellable so no one can have M&M honey.

Lady Gaga Sets A New Twitter Record!

Lady Gaga was born on the 28^th of March 1986 and she is an American songwriter singer. While everyone knows the pop star called Lady Gaga, her real name is ‘Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta!’

The superstar, Lady Gaga, has set an amazing new record by becoming the very first person to EVER get more than 30 MILLION FOLLOWERS on the well-known fan site called Twitter!

Twitter is an online social networking site and microblogging service that enables the users to send and read text-based messages of up to 140 characters, known as something called ‘Tweets’.

Lady Gaga has an average of 30,000 followers each day! How amazing is that!? Can you imagine having 30,000 people following and looking at something you have done each day? Gaga’s nearest rival with a number of 28.5 million followers is Justin Bieber, and then her second rival is Katy Perry with 27.2 million followers! All of them have a spectacular number of followers!

However, another great pop star called Rihanna is more popular than anybody on the famous sites called YouTube and Facebook. But she only has 26 million followers on Twitter.

There are now an amazing 1 billion people using this social networking site called Facebook every single month each year!

Facebook is a social networking site that was launched in February 2004. Facebook lets people around the world chat and communicate to each other by this networking site. Facebook also lets you play different types of games as well!

The Facebook founder called Mark Zuckerberg made this spectacular announcement on the American TV on Thursday (4th October 2012). Mark posted this on his profile not so long back:

Mark Zuckerburg

“Helping a billion people connect is amazing, humbling and by far the thing I am most proud of in my life.”

Because of this huge and magnificent announcement, Facebook have released a special online video to celebrate the billion users on Facebook.

Right now there are currently a whopping 243 million users on Facebook in Europe. The highest number coming directly from us, the UK! However Facebook isn’t as popular across some other countries as China and Russia don’t use Facebook anywhere near as much as what we do in the UK.

Mammoth Remains Discovered

An 11 year old boy found a perfectly preserved mammoth carcass in Sopochnaya Karga, which is in Siberia. The body was found lying in frozen mood; it took experts five days to uncover it completely. The enormous creature has been named Zhenya after the boy who found the bones while on a walk with his dogs. The mammoth was well preserved meaning that it will be easier for scientists to carry out numerous tests and analyse the carcass. 

Scientists estimated that the mammal weighed approximately 500kg, was 2 metres tall and was about 16 years old at the time of its death. They have also stated that the animal could have been killed by a fellow mammoth or by the last ice age; which still makes the carcass extremely old. It was only found with one tusk, but that is still enough for scientists to be able to find out what the poor animal went through during it's life. They can achieve this by cutting the tusk in half and analysing the lines inside; just like we do to find out how old a tree is.

This is an important find because we can still learn a lot from carcasses like these, and they will help us understand what different animal species went through a long time ago.

Cher Lloyd Reveals Her New Song!

Cher Lloyd was born on the 28^th of July 1993 and she is an English recording artist. Cher Lloyd rose to her fame when she finished 4^th in the seventh series of the XFactor. Shortly after her success, Simon Cowell signed Lloyd to Sony Music subsidiary.

Cher Lloyd has just released her new album in the US, and she has added a special song to the album too! It is called: Stand Behind The Music. At first the song sounds quite country-ish but then it goes into a military plodding bit and then of course, Lloyd gets involved in a lot of rapping and half-rap-half-singing bit in the middle of the song.

Unfortunately this might not get a lot of airplay now because it’s been released as part of the US edition or her debut album: Sticks+Stones. However, on the bright side, according to ‘Digital Spy’, her new song Stand Behind The Music is expected to be indulged on a deluxe re-package of the UK album that is set to be released in November of this year (2012).
