		<description><![CDATA[DC is a fantastic city. Its coming up, reversing a long back-sliding history. It has weathered British sacking, Civil War encampments, a heavy-handed Eisenhower-era sweep-up, and plunging fortunes after Dr King&#8217;s assassination. Things are looking up today, and the design laid out by L&#8217;Enfant (1791) and later updated by McMillan (1901) have stood up remarkably [...]]]></description>

Asked, &#8220;Does a toe make a good thumb?&#8221; Mr Byrne replied, &#8220;Yes, I [...]]]></description>

The September 2011 National Geographic makes a compelling case that, when other conditions are right, television can have broad social and economic impact. Consider the case [...]]]></description>
