...reach $91.7 million in 2009, an 80% jump from 2004 levels. The resurrection of online advertising is a welcome payoff for Dare, a pioneering and cutting-edge agency that Collier, the former head of London ad agency Bartle Bogle Hegarty (BBH), launched in July 2000. Dare survived the dotcom crash and is now reaping the benefits of widespread broadband penetration. And that's making for competition. Not only have other digital-focused small agencies since opened their doors, but most of the large U.S. and European mega-agencies now have digital ad divisions. Dare's top-drawer clients include Vodafone...

So as the aid money started rolling out, tens of thousands of evacuees found themselves in the same corner, like...
...Remember that, in 1931, the Wall Street crash had lately idled nearly a fifth of the work force and wonder that Ira Gershwin could have Wintergreen sing, in a perky love ballad, "Who cares what banks fail in Yonkers, / Long as you've got a kiss that conquers?" The Senators are less discreet: "If you think you've got depression, / Wait until we get in session, / And you'll find out what depression really means!" The reporters care not about The Issues; they pepper the Prez with questions only about his love life. "We don't want to know about...
