...probably not a bad idea that Del Vecchio is finding growth in new places???like abroad. Brooks has had stores in Japan for years but now is breaking into new markets, from Paris to Seoul to Santiago to London. "We want to grow in a healthy way," says Eraldo Poletto, Brooks' president of strategic development and international business. And moving into countries where people have shown interest by ordering from the Brooks website is thought to be sounder than loading the U.S. market with 100 more stores...

Some doctors said privately that the Shah could safely be moved within a few days, and that the treatment he needs could be administered in many places???in Mexico, Egypt or France, where he has been treated for his lymphoma in the past...

With the help of ground controllers, pilots navigate from point to point along these invisible airways by means of electronic navigational aids that provide course, distance and location information. These "navaids" range from small location-marker beacons on the ground that light a bulb on the aircraft...
