Datelines: Donuts delivered, lakes choked

Datelines is an occasional roundup of news topping Gannett websites.

Burlington, Vt.: Dinky Donuts is delivering freshly made treats to customers' homes -- at the crack of dawn. Monroe, La.: Louisiana's lakes are being invaded by exotic vegetation that threatens to choke the life out of them. Indianapolis, Ind.: For the first time in nearly two decades, presidential candidates will be fighting over state's delegates. Great Falls, Mont.: The snowpack across most of Montana is slightly above the average for this time of year, authorities say. Tucson, Ariz.: A 15-year-old boy says he shot his father in the back of the head because he wouldn't let the teenager use the Internet.

  1. With four different VP's of Advertising at the Gannett JOA in Tucson, I hope that the blood-letting is over. Four executives over five years is a bit much even for Gannett. The local ad community and retailers know the deal. The truth hurts.
