...instance, if consumers keep turning to on-line or big-box stores for a particular product-say, socks-this signals an opportunity for someone local to make and sell socks. This is the way product innovations get made, says Witt. "The local producer adds creative elements that make either the product or materials used more appropriate to the place." For example, an area where sheep are raised might make lambs wool socks and other goods...
...What can be hardest for people to wrap their minds around is that to undo sprawl - and the traffic and smog and environmental waste that come with it - we might have to build a lot more on top of it. Right now, nearly half the land in Tysons is either roadway or parking. The new incarnation will be less car- and more people-oriented. So instead of there being stores and offices set back from the road, with parking in between, new mixed-use buildings will hug the sidewalk, with retail on the first floor to accommodate passersby.

And for that reason, if confirmed, she could influence the racially charged issues the Supreme Court will confront over the next few decades in unexpected ways...
...guest rooms are meanwhile individually designed with impeccable Swedish taste. Comfort, rather than any showbiz excess, is the keynote - an approach exemplified by the choice of eight different pillow types, and the noticeably informal dining options (a café and a bakery). It isn't all money, money, money, either. Rates start from about $180. See www.rival.se for more...
