Sometimes newspaper editors state the obvious:

* 'If strike isn't settled quickly it may last a while'.

* 'War dims hope for peace'

* 'Cold wave linked to temperatures'

* 'Child's death ruins couple's holiday'

* 'Blind woman gets new kidney from dad she hasn't seen in years'

* 'Man is fatally slain'

* 'Something went wrong in jet crash, experts say'

* Grammar often botches other headlines:

* 'Miners refuse to work after death'

* 'Milk drinkers are turning to powder'

* 'Quarter of a million Chinese live on water'

* 'Stiff opposition expected to casket-less funeral plan'

* 'Iraqi head seeks arms'
