Earthquakes in Chile, Haiti, Taiwan and Japan, are they related?

Is Mother Earch angry? Is this sign already that something like "End of the World" will happen? I hope not! Or at least it seems that way, with three significant earthquakes in the past week: A 7.0 magnitude quake near Japan last Friday, the huge 8.8 quake near Chile on Saturday, and a 6.4 near Taiwan earlier today. And, of course, there was the devastating 7.0 quake in January in Haiti that killed more than 200,000 people. That's a very bad number of deaths.

Could Howard Stern be the new American Idol judge?

What do you think on Howard Stern as the new American Idol judge? Something tells me we need to keep Howard Stern far, far away from judging American Idol.
