Dyslexia Error

This probably isn't the article you want to make a typo in the headline that makes it read like a stutterer. Actually a typo is something you never want to see on a professional piece because it devalues the entire work. Gte me?

The community press article states, "Students with dyslexia usually experience difficulties with specific language skills, particulary reading, but also with SPELLING, WRITING, and PRONOUNCING WORDS." It's ironic the first word in the headline is misspelled.

Best Buy CEO Resigns

A few notes I haven't posted...
  • IGN.com ripping the video game Naughty Bear in its home page review while the whole rest of the page's theme is an advertisement praising the game.
  • Buying a 99cent Pepsi Next at Walgreens and receiving a coupon for a Free Coke Zero
  • Below is somewhat reminiscent...

Best Buy CEO Brian Dunn is stepping down from the nation's largest consumer electronics retailer, a company widely criticized for not responding quickly enough to growing competition and the changing shopping habits of Americans.

I suppose Brian Dunn wasn't responsible for this onslaught of ads on the same page as news of his resigning.

Or maybe he was... "I leave it today in position for a strong future," Dunn said.
