Will legendary redheads like Rita Hayworth become mere legends?
-Fashion crime-
Atlanta City Councilman C.T. Martin is urging an amendment to Atlanta, GA's indecency code that would make baggy pants that show the underwear band a crime of public indecency. "I don't want young people thinking that half-dressing is the way to go," he said. "I want them to think about their future." How would wearing your pants around your knees as a teenager affect your future?
No one's really sure. Maybe prison or something. It's a lot harder to ditch the cops when your jeans are around your ankles. In that sense, I'm all for baggy pants. (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)

-Humanity gets less rusty as it ages-
National Geographic is reporting that redheaded humans could be 'extinct' by the end of the century. According to the magazine, less than 2% of the world's population is naturally redheaded and that number is decreasing.
The problem is the fact that we now live in a global community. According to the report, this has "reduced the chances of redheads meeting and so producing little redheads of their own... Although it takes only one red-haired parent to produce ginger babies, two redheads obviously creates a much stronger possibility."
