Find that feature lead

While browsing CNN.com, I came across 2 stories that did not use just the basic lead. For one of them, it had the startling statement lead. The story was about the swine flu and its increase in numbers of cases around the world. It starts with this:

"The number of people confirmed to have been infected with the H1N1 virus stands at 331". 

This statement alone makes me question going outside. That many of cases proves even more that the swine flu is nothing to taken lightly. Then it continues to say:

"The virus, commonly known as swine flu, has spread to 11 countries, but the hardest-hit areas were in the Western hemisphere". 

Knowing that it is so wide-spread but especially influential in the areas that I live in right now, made me want to continue to read to know exactly what I am in for.

Another type of lead I ran into was the roundup lead. This article was about men and their habits of having to be the "macho man". It starts with a generalization and then spreads.

"Men don't have 'guilty pleasures.' We own, nay, celebrate what's bad for us. Our obsessions are points of pride, not shame."

This is speaking on behalf of all men. I do not know about others but the guys that are in my life and not entirely like this. Yes, some of them are, but only a select few. 

The basic news lead is always reliable but sometimes it is nice to read an article that captivates your interest with just the first few lines.
