...hung out, but I don't see the crisis the way the media portray it. And consequently, as long as employment stays strong, I don't see any issue as far as rental housing is concerned. Our apartment company continues to rent at 95%. We continue to see same-store-sales increases from one year to the next. I don't think that the unsold inventory of houses will have any dramatic effect on the apartment-rental business. The cost of owning is helping the rental-housing business today, and it will continue to do so. I don't expect...
...Katonah for dozens and dozens of product categories, from lamps to curtain rods to belt racks. After all, many of the village's shops, such as Katonah Yarn and Katonah Architectural Hardware, use the name.

But now that Overby is planning to buy the store he's been working in, the Dutch government proposes to ban his main line of merchandise, and parliament is set to agree. For him, the ban is not just a threat to his livelihood, but to his beliefs. "To us, this is a religious issue," he says...
...Retailer Charles Overby points to the street outside his shop to indicate who will take over his trade. "Quick sales, no advice, and more ambulance calls," he predicts. As for himself, he'll try to run his store on the jewelry and ceremonial statues he sells. And perhaps other hallucinogens? "We don't want to speculate on what we might sell, because we don't know what is going to be prohibited," he says. "We have no intention of selling illegal things, and that's it." But if the logic of the mushroom ban takes hold in the Netherlands...
