When making a sub, you could add FTA before the headline and report on the sinking of the Titanic or the Gettysburg address or whatever. This is not only an amusing idea, to fabricate the notion that NB has been going for hundreds of years or whatever, but allows you to deal with that terrible moment when you suddenly have a great idea for a story that isn't topical. </p>
