In an industry that relies on people feeling bad about themselves to push products, Roddick made her millions helping people feel good and do good. To the Queen of Green, bath salts and foot lotion were just the hook, a way to get people into her stores - which she called "billboards" - to learn about the issues she loudly and tirelessly campaigned for, from the environment to fair trade to human rights...

Then, if they can, they floodlight the room with whatever it is we mean by genius. This is what...
...miles (560 km) away. It's because Kidman & Co. are making a big, $130 million--plus historical romantic drama. The kind of movie hardly anyone makes anymore. The kind of movie people seem to stay away from in droves. The kind of movie studios take a huge, bitterly cold bath...
