The task force, granted a two-month extension last week, has until the fall to submit its report, but officials familiar with the deliberations say the interagency unit - comprising experts from the FBI, CIA and the military - will be a big element in any new interrogation blueprint presented to the White House.

...Internet economy. As digital-infrastructure costs approach zero, Anderson argues that Free often pays off, whether it involves giving away cell phones to hawk monthly plans or embracing piracy to spark demand for merchandise. He also explains how charging even a penny can scramble consumer psychology and sketches a blueprint for competing with juggernauts, like Google, that have harnessed the force of a unique digit--"the hole where the price should be, the void at the till." The editor in chief of Wired magazine and best-selling author of The Long Tail, Anderson capitalizes Free into a concept whose meaning...

The implications of this redevelopment project stretch far beyond Fairfax County, as suburbs and exurbs across the country look for ways to repair the damage from five decades of outward, rather than upward, expansion. There are scores of so-called edge cities that have popped up near urban centers, suburbs on steroids that often grew around a giant mall - like King of Prussia, Pa. (outside Philadelphia), and Schaumburg...
