POPSOpen-door morgue leaves bodies up for grabs more: ''It's been going on for years and it's appalling, but the health department told us not to complain to the hospital because they could make things worse for us,'' Mr Stewart said. At other hospitals, undertakers were required to submit detailed paperwork at the medical records office before being escorted to the mortuary by a porter and monitored by a morgue attendant while they removed the body.

POPSGet A Free License For Registry First Aid, A Registry Cleaner
It scans 100% clean using AntiVir. Some points to note: 1. In German "Nachname" means surname while "Vorname" means first name. 2. After installing the program you can register it via the help menu. 3. There is always a risk with any registry cleaner that it may mess up your PC. That's why you should always do a backup before erasing "erroneous" registry entries. Registry First Aid offers you a backup option right at the start; make sure you take it. Gizmo PS. Many thanks to Rhiannon for alerting me to this offer. ADDENDUM: Looking at the various comments on registry cleaners below I figured I should add my two cents worth: Over the years I've seen registry cleaners create just about as many problems as I've seen them fix. That's not to say you shouldn't use them; the trick is to use them wisely. Using them wisely pretty much amounts to not using them all that often. The very worst way to use a registry cleaner is as part of your regular computer maintenance.

POPSScience Ponders Zombie Attack more: "Professor Robert Smith? (the question mark is part of his surname and not a typographical mistake) and colleagues wrote: "We model a zombie attack using biological assumptions based on popular zombie movies. Even so, their analysis revealed that a strategy of capturing or curing the zombies would only put off the inevitable. In their scientific paper, the authors conclude that humanity's only hope is to "hit them hard and hit them often". They added: "It's imperative that zombies are dealt with quickly or else... we are all in a great deal of trouble." According to the researchers, the key difference between the zombies and the spread of real infections is that "zombies can come back to life". Professor Neil Ferguson, who is one of the UK government's chief advisers on controlling the spread of swine flu, said the study did have parallels with some infectious diseases.

POPSEmma Watson, star of Harry Potter films, is related to 16th century witch Anastasia Tyler, a genealogist from Ancestry.co.uk, who researched Watson's heritage, said: "It is not every day we are able to trace the branches of a family tree back to the 16th century witch trials. "It shows researching your family's past can have just as many twists and turns as a film blockbuster. "As we researched Emma's family, we learned that her great great great grandmother was named Frances Playle - a very uncommon surname. "The Playles have been in a small area of Essex since the early 1500s." Watson grew up in Oxfordshire, roughly 100 miles from the area. The actress, who achieved straight A grades at A level in English literature, geography and art at Headington School in Oxford, is reportedly set to attend Ivy League Brown University, in Rhode Island, USA, in September.

POPS"Computed: The world's most beautiful woman" more: Kleb's team spent six months deciding on the most perfect female ears, before finally choosing those of Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie as the best in the world. The lovely Lindsay Lohan was selected as having the most perfect nose, while Bernice's golden-blonde hair came from Jennifer Aniston.

"There we went old school," said Kleb. "Our analysis showed that the most perfect mouth belonged to none other than Marilyn Monroe." The final composite, pictured below, has now been revealed to the public for the first time. The McGill team will continue their work, to give Bernice a body that will match her beautiful face. "I can't say too much," said Kleb, "but I will tell you that the left breast belongs to Scarlett Johansson.

POPSHunt for Yowies in soggy SE Qld "If I'm really lucky I may even get to see one." Dean Harrison of Australian Yowie Research says he has just returned from Springbrook, bearing photographs of footprints he believes are of a female yowie and her young trailing along behind. "They seem to be quite passive around that area compared to other areas that we've been to," Mr Harrison said. He said tales of yowies near Springbrook date back to before European settlement. Mr Harrison said on his latest expedition he was rugby tackled by a yowie at 3am near Gympie. "This one knocked me flying backwards. I landed in a rock pool," he said. Australian Yowie Research has been nominated for a Bent Spoon Award on the website of Australian Skeptics, a group that investigates paranormal and pseudo scientific claims.
