This undated photo provided by Martha Stewart shows Stewart's dog Paw Paw at her home in Bedford, N.Y. Paw Paw, who was a familiar face on Stewart's television show and in her magazine, has died of renal failure. The 60-pound chow, whose full name was Kublai Khan Paw Paw Chow Chow Chow, was almost 13. Stewart had owned him since he was born, and had named him Paw Paw for his large paws, a spokeswoman said.

Who says we only publish bad news?


Posted at 12:01 am by Jon Bauer, Herald staff

The dreary weather has The Buzz ferreting out silver linings from the clouds, so let's review the news, bad and good.

The bad news: The state has rolled out a van equipped with a camera that will take photos of speeders along state highways. Tickets will be mailed to the vehicle's registered owner.

The good news: You won't have to wait for a state trooper to write you a ticket.

The bad news: Martha Stewart's 12-year-old chow dog died.

The good news: The report gives us the excuse to print the dog's full name: Kublai Khan Paw Paw Chow Chow Chow.

The bad news: More adults, at least more Canadian adults, are smoking pot, an Ontario study says.

The good news: Canada will have to increase the production of Nanaimo bars.

The bad news: High fuel and food prices are driving inflation, the recession continues and a leading economist says those stimulus checks are going to get eaten up paying for $4-a-gallon gas.

The good news: We couldn't think of any. Here, drown your sorrows with a Nanaimo bar.
