What is tombstone in journalism?
Tomb-stoning is when you are making your page and two different headlines for two different articles line up.. for example, if your one article's headline starts at the top left of your page and is one inch thick and the headline for your second article lines up exactly with the first article headline, that is tombstoning. The term "tombstoning" comes from the idea of a graveyard where all the tombstones line up and match. In journalism, tombstoning your headline is not attractive to the eye of the reader so therefore possible solutions include : making one head 1 inch, making the second 1/2 and inch... making one headline 2 lines long, the other just on line.. putting one headline at the top of your page and running your article horizontally not vertically and start your second article further down the page.

What is the difference between tombstoning a WINS record and simply deleting it?
Simple deletion removes the records that are selected in the WINS console only from the local WINS server you are currently managing. If the WINS records deleted in this way exist in WINS data replicated to other WINS servers on your network, these additional records are not fully removed. Also, records that are simply deleted on only one server can reappear after replication between the WINS server where simple deletion was used and any of its replication partners. Tombstoning marks the selected records as tombstoned, that is, marked locally as extinct and immediately released from active use by the local WINS server. This method allows the tombstoned records to remain present in the server database for purposes of subsequent replication of these records to other servers. When the tombstoned records are replicated, the tombstone status is updated and applied by other WINS servers that store replicated copies of these records. Each replicating WINS server then updates and tombstones
What is insurance tombstoning?
This is where unscrupuless insurance agents use the names of dead people and create insurance policies for them. Agents often work on large up front commissions so get money almost immediately a new policy is signed. The average policy lasts for 20 years so the big insurance companies were happy to pay up early especially if the first 2 years of the premium was paid in advance. This was usually the trigger to get paid the maximum commission early. The math was simple: 2 years premium, say $800.00. Commission on a new policy to the dodgy insurance agent, $2500.00. The agent figures that they can milk the cow till they get out with the money. Oh and instead of looking through the births deaths etc a quick trip to the cemetery was all that was needed to get the names.
