** Applecans Sure to be Re-elected **
 * Politics **

The latest polls are in, and they revel that 93% of iWorld is Applecan while 6% is Googlecrat. Steve Jobs III should have no trouble retaining his presidency. The Applecan campaigning advantages are undeniable. Apple Inc. has the ability to send out mass texts, video, and picture messages to every device that is a part of their network (3.1 billion people). Some of the most desired iPod applications can only be downloaded after electronically signing a confirmation to vote Applecan in the upcoming election. Some say it is unethical, others call it genius. Even Googlecrats have to admit the economy has never been in better shape. The only drawbacks to an Applecan government are lack of privacy and the absencce of human interaction, but why talk when you can chat? iWorld is sure to see another prosperous and innovative year under the Applecan administration.


 * iWorld Government to Vote on Ban of iPads in Religious Services**

Many Priests, Rabbis, and Monks are upset with the recent utilization of iPads as a substitution for prayer books in religious services. They claim the iPads are a distraction and people are more apt to check their email and play games. Despite the nickname "iPray", religious leaders contend that the iPad actually discourage participation in the faith. A recent movement has been formed by inter-religious organizations to ban iPads in churches, synagogues, mosques, temples, etc. Opposers of the ban argue that the iPad stores much more prayers and chants than any traditional book could, making it much more efficient and convenient. Applecans will likely vote against banning the iPad in religious services. Most representatives have admitted to enjoying the iPad in church, but for the religious aspect. They use the iPad to follow along with the sermon (automatically uploaded) and never turn to the wrong page during a ceremony (automatic prayer recognition). The vote will be held in Silicon Valley later this afternoon. A text of the results will be sent out to every iWorld citizen immidiately after the votes have been logged.
