All of us Examiner.com writers know the changes that the site has gone through lately, first being removed from Google News then graciously allowed back in -- with the local Examiners making sure to write locally, and the National ones sticking to their topics. Apply to Write for Examiner.com here now... But how many of our Examiner articles are actually making it into Google News? I just wrote a piece about Beyonce's booty-shaking and Bible reading that I hope makes it into Google News. Checking out these links will let you know which ones of mine are making it in.

So glad I can pay Uncle Sam what I owe him. Apply to Write for Examiner.com here now... I didn't include my expenses, so this is just gross income for now.
