I get several newspapers delivered as email each day. For free, I might add. They've turned up regular as clockwork for years. Those that don't excite me I cancel my subscription to, those I get a lot out of are the ones that keep arriving.
Some are parochial, some are great at covering international news, only one does both and the quality of its writing continues to impress me. It's The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. It stands out from all the others, it's a gem.
It needs a registration to read the articles which I think is a mistake on their part and I'd encourage them to lift that restriction.
Here's the story which prompted me to start the thread: Derrick Williams, 37, of Dunwoody sheds 75 pounds | ajc.com

That's community reporting at its finest.

Who has a spare two minutes to play in this month's FG Trivia game! ... My other OS is Slackware. Écrasez l'infâme! When you design tactics to maximise suffering on civilian populations and your only constraint is operational rather than moral, you've told the world who you are.
