		<title>At Least They&#8217;re Talking? The Gaps New Logo.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past Monday, without a lot of fanfare, we introduced a new logo on our gap.com site, and I wanted to take this opportunity to explain our thinking behind this decision.

		<title>Newspapers Enters A New Phase But I Have A Question?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[New York Times Chairman Arthur Sulzberger Jr. appears close to announcing that the paper will begin charging for access to its website, according to people familiar with internal deliberations.
