BURBANK | January 17, 2012 The Burbank police arrested a woman on suspicion of prostitution after allegedly offering sexual favors in exchange for Chicken McNuggets®. In a McDonald's® drive-through on the 1700 block of Olive Avenue late Wednesday night, Officer Joshua Kendrick told the Burbank Leader that Khadijah Baseer was seen opening customers' car doors. Luckily, it was a customer that told police that Baseer asked for Chicken McNuggets® in exchange for sexual favors. The man who was propositioned said he declined the offer. Is the American economy really recovering when prostitutes lower their tariff for Chicken McNuggets®? Could the bad economy in the United States have lowered the price of prostitution? It certainly is food for thought.

TRIPOLI | January 21, 2012 Prime Minister Mario Monti of Italy returned a 2,000 year-old statue that was smuggled out of Libya in the 1960s Saturday during his trip to Tripoli. The sculpted head of Domitilla Minor, the only daughter of Roman emperor Vespasian and Flavia Domitilla the Elder, Domitilla had two brothers: the elder who was Titus, and her younger brother Domitian. After more than 50 years away, Domitilla's sculpted head known as Head Domitilla has made its way home. Head Domitilla was taken from Libya's northwestern city of Sabratha and recently auctioned at Christie's. The trip to Tripoli was Prime Minister Monti's first Libyan visit since Moammar Gadhafi was killed in October and since he took office in November. Mario Monti is also an Italian Economist aside from being the Prime Miniser. He also holds the title of Minister of Economy and Finance and European Union Competition Commissioner.

Once upon a time there was a young rooster, a fowl lad to be sure, endowed, like all the fabled protagonists of old with the indefinite moniker "Chicken Little".Who was he?What did his mother call him?It's not important.He was struck on the head by an acorn, thereby proclaiming: "the sky is falling"-an absurd conclusion given that it was a cloudless day, not a drop of rain to be felt.
