They Went and Did It: Unless I wasn't paying attention, The Signal just went ahead and threw up a paywall on their site, and did it without giving anyone notice. I really don't have that big of an issue with a paywall, but if you're going to finally make that big of a change at least give people a heads up.

A Champion: “I used to beat up my little brother as a kid. My dad told me ‘You either stop beating up your little brother or you take Taekwondo.'" A local teen who was diagnosed with autism is a state Taekwondo champ. KHTS
