GUMMY BEARS ARE GOOD FOR YOUR TEETH
According to a new study from the University of Washington, it turns out eating Gummy Bear candies might actually be good for your health. Why?

MY, HOW NAMES HAVE CHANGED!
You could be forgiven for thinking that baby names like "Apple" and "Sunday" are common these days... but really, only celebrities with no sense of reality give their kids stupid names.
And even though most parents give their babies pretty ordinary names... the top baby names of today look nothing like the top baby names of 1950. Check this out...
In 1950, the top ten baby names for boys and girls according to the Social Security Administration were...
#10.) Gary and Kathleen.
#9.) Charles and Carol.
#8.) Thomas and Sandra.
#7.) Richard and Deborah.
#6.) William and Nancy.
#5.) David and Susan.
#4.) Michael and Barbara.
#3.) John and Patricia.
#2.) Robert and Mary.
#1.) James and Linda.
You still hear those names often today... but here are the names you probably hear the most, according to this list of the top 10 baby names from 2007...
#10.) Andrew and Elizabeth.
#9.) Matthew and Hannah.
#8.) William and Abigail.
#7.) Anthony and Olivia.
#6.) Christopher and Sophia.
#5.) Daniel and Madison.
#4.) Joshua and Ava.
#3.) Ethan and Emma.
#2.) Michael and Isabella.
#1.) Jacob and Emily.
