As the youth of America get fatter and fatter, the U.S. Army changes the way it does physical training to deal with the problem.

Meanwhile, the British are looking to share an aircraft carrier with the French to save money. Lord Nelson is spinning in his grave.

The Left is trying to figure out Glenn Beck now that he has shown he is not losing any popularity after drawing over 100,000 people to a rally on the Mall in Washington. Perhaps he is just in it for the publicity, which drives ratings and revenues, as this article asserts. As a former radio talk show host myself, I am inclined to believe that he is doing it to raise his profile, ratings, and revenue. But I am also willing to believe that, while he may have started the process looking simply to build the biggest audience possible for his radio and TV shows, he is now caught up in the belief that he is becoming a historical figure, on a mission from God to help restore America's greatness. So long as he does not jeopardize their broadcast licenses or reputations, his employers will care little about Beck's personal motivations that allow him to put on a good show. Just keep building the audience Glenn, and we will keep counting the money, is almost certainly their conclusion.
