...Indeed, says Boyle, many local economies are languishing not because too little cash comes in, but as a result of what happens to that money. "Money is like blood. It needs to keep moving around to keep the economy going," he says, noting that when money is spent elsewhere-at big supermarkets, non-locally owned utilities and other services such as on-line retailers-"it flows out, like a wound." By shopping at the corner store instead of the big box, consumers keep their communities from becoming what the NEF calls "ghost towns" (areas devoid of neighborhood shops and services...
...merger result in lower ticket prices for the public? Phillips said Live Nation has a history of being "aggressive" with pricing. "We walked away from bidding on Fleetwood Mac because we thought the guarantee was too high and what we'd have to charge the public would be too much," he said. Mickelson noted that Live Nation's new ticketing company introduced service fees that were even higher than Ticketmaster's: "A Coldplay ticket at a Ticketmaster building had a $15 service charge, and the same Coldplay ticket at a Live Nation ticketing venue had a $21 service charge...
Indeed there's little doubt that violence is the result of an uneasy mix between bad genes and a bad environment. How much control nature has over nurture, however, is the question.

Those with high-active...
...what is the practical limit? Six? Seven? Twelve? We may never know. "Testing beyond 5.5 to six hours is not practical," says Ackerman, "because examinees would need a break of significant time to eat. It's an open question whether eight or more hours with a lunch break would result in poorer performance." For now, high school students dreading the SAT probably don't have to worry that the test is going to get longer. But it's not likely to get any shorter either...
...similar investigations, and not without controversy. The Saville Inquiry into the 1972 shooting of 27 civil-rights marchers in Derry by British army soldiers is already in its 10th year and, despite having cost an estimated $320 million so far, has yet to deliver its final report. The result is that the Northern Irish public has little appetite for further in-depth inquiries into Northern Ireland's bloodiest episodes - Omagh included...
