Network Ten's Chief Programming Officer, David Mott, has resigned from his position following the axing of his show 'Everybody Dance Now' this week on Tuesday, and the poor ratings on his newest show 'I Will Survive', despite having much success with other reality tv shows such as Big Brother, the Biggest Loser and MasterChef.

David decided to retire before anyone had a chance to vote him out of his position.

The NSW State Government and the Federal Government announced today that they will jointly implement a system along the length of the M4 which aims to reduce travel time and make commuting along the motorway safer.

And we all know how successful joing NSW and Federal Government plans are.

English Royal Officials have warned tabloids across Britain not to publish the nude photos of Prince Harry that came out earlier this week, saying if they do publish the photographs, they would be violating the prince's privacy.

Right, because preventing the photographs from being published in British tabloids, despite the fact that they have already been published on websites everywhere which are accessible to everyone in Britain, definitely protects the prince's privacy.

Karin Tuxen-Bettman from Google Street View today visited a remote Inuit town as part of the company's goal to share with the rest of the world images of the Canadian Arctic.

The locals, having never seen such a device before, instantly attacked it after mistaking the tricycle for a polar bear.
