Headline DS #66 - KFC Gambles on the Grill

"KFC Gambles on the Grill" is from the April 15, 2009 edition of the Express. This week, KFC introduces Kentucky Grilled Chicken in an attempt to bring healthy eaters back to their restaurants. Grilled chicken may seem healthier than fried in terms of fat content. But the sodium content is still bad news for your heart. The real healthy choice is cooking your own food at home. So if you do end up grabbing some quick KGC, do it because you love the taste, not because it's good for you. Cause it's really not. Distributed by Tubemogul.

Headline DS #65 - Unemployed Flock to 'Green' Training

"Unemployed Flock to 'Green' Training" is from the April 14, 2009 edition of the Express. I think green jobs will be huge once we get over this financial hurdle. But I think even now, there's worry that two-year colleges that have added green training to their curriculum are training too many workers. Distributed by Tubemogul.

Headline DS #64 - Captive Ship Captain Saved

"Captive Ship Captain Saved" is from the April 13, 2009 edition of the Express. I'm happy for the Captain and his family that he was finally rescued. But why did it take so long? Four pirates in a dingy vs a fleet of Naval Destroyers? That's something you'd see in a Bugs Bunny cartoon. Distributed by Tubemogul.

Headline DS #63 - Obama Seeks $84B in War Funds

"Obama Seeks $84B in War Funds" is from the April 10, 2009 edition of the Express. I'm not surprised by the price. The wars in Afghanistan and Iran should be funded. But where is the money going to come from? Distributed by Tubemogul.

Headline DS #62 - Piracy Thrives in Lawless Somalia

"Piracy Thrives in Lawless Somalia" is from the April 9, 2009 edition of the Express. In the new millennium you expect certain jobs to be obsolete, door-to-door salesman, slide rule technician, pirate. But piracy is going strong in Somalia which apparently has no central government. In 2008, 42 vessels were jacked by pirates. Turns out piracy is good for the local economy as pirates spend money in the local towns. Distributed by Tubemogul.

Headline DS #61 - Ban on Photos of War Dead Ends

"Ban on Photos of War Dead Ends" is from the April 7, 2009 edition of the Express. No attempt at a cute punchline today. After 18 years, the Pentagon has lifted the ban on media releasing casket photos of returning soldiers killed over seas. The decision is now left up to the families as it always should have been.

HeadlineDS #60 - Porn Screening at UMd. Back On

"Porn Screening at UMd. Back On" is from the April 6, 2009 edition of the Express. In defiance of some at the MD State Senate, students at the University of Maryland at College Park have rented a lecture hall to screen the pirate porn movie that was canceled Saturday night. Sure, it's not the same as protesting a war. But it's good to see students standing up for porn... I mean free speech. Distributed by Tubemogul.
