They bring expert guides and top-quality gear and arrange all meals and accommodations -- you just bring your thirst for adventure.</description><pubDate>Sat, 24 Oct 2009 14:04:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Aerosmith cancels rest of tour</title><link>http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Music/08/14/aerosmith.tour.canceled/index.html#cnnSTCText</link><guid>http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/Music/08/14/aerosmith.tour.canceled/index.html#cnnSTCText</guid><description>Aerosmith announced the cancellation of the remainder of its summer tour Thursday, more than a week after the band's lead singer tumbled off stage in South Dakota.</description><pubDate>Fri, 14 Aug 2009 05:48:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Four more banks bite the dust</title><link>http://money.cnn.com/2009/07/17/news/companies/bank_failures/index.htm</link><guid>http://money.cnn.com/2009/07/17/news/companies/bank_failures/index.htm</guid><description>State regulators shut down four banks Friday, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation said.</description><pubDate>Sat, 18 Jul 2009 03:32:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>South Dakota Cowboy Wins $232 Million Powerball Jackpot</title><link>http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20283728,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnn</link><guid>http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20283728,00.html?xid=rss-fullcontentcnn</guid><description>"I will not squander it," insists 23-year-old rancher Neal Wanless, who bought the winning ticket in a town called Winner</description><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2009 06:48:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Urology patients warned of possible HIV, hepatitis exposure</title><link>http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/04/17/south.dakota.urology.infection/index.html#cnnSTCText</link><guid>http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/04/17/south.dakota.urology.infection/index.html#cnnSTCText</guid><description>More than 5,000 patients of a South Dakota urology clinic may have been exposed to hepatitis and HIV when the facility reused single-use medical products, state health officials said Friday.</description><pubDate>Tue, 21 Apr 2009 21:51:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>South Dakota finds clinic reused single-use supplies on patients</title><link>http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/04/17/urology.patients/index.html#cnnSTCText</link><guid>http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/04/17/urology.patients/index.html#cnnSTCText</guid><description>More than 5,000 patients at a South Dakota urology clinic may have been exposed to hepatitis and HIV after the facility reused single-use medical products on them, state health officials said.</description><pubDate>Fri, 17 Apr 2009 06:32:00 EDT</pubDate></item><item><title>Missing Nebraska family surrenders;

Otherwise the balanced, disciplined and versatile Jackrabbits have beaten everyone they've faced, including Missouri, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Gonzaga. With guards who can post up and posts who can hit the three -- six players have hit 20 or more threes this year, and as a team the Jacks make 8.2 threes a game -- the Jacks present a lot of matchup problems. "We're not a bunch of little engines that could that somehow had this miraculous season," said coach Aaron Johnston.

That's what the power brokers in Washington and Wall Street have recently concluded. Or we will be soon. Or else it started a while ago and we're just now finding out. In any case, the pundits are gloomy, and the politicians all have plans. They trot out some scary numbers. But here's what I was wondering: How are American business owners really coping with all this confusion? What does the economy truly look like? Not when you're staring at a computer screen or studying survey results, but when you actually go someplace that's not a major media market (the farther from those places, the better) and you introduce yourself to a stranger and ask him how he's doing.</description><pubDate>Thu, 14 Feb 2008 21:45:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>The Gun Lobby Targets Yellowstone</title><link>http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1697984,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topics</link><guid>http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1697984,00.html?xid=feed-cnn-topics</guid><description>With help from the NRA, nearly 50 Senators are pushing to end a two-decade-old rule forbidding people from openly carrying firearms in most national parks</description><pubDate>Fri, 21 Dec 2007 22:00:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Which states love small business?</title><link>http://money.cnn.com/2007/11/16/smbusiness/SBE_states_lists.fsb/index.htm</link><guid>http://money.cnn.com/2007/11/16/smbusiness/SBE_states_lists.fsb/index.htm</guid><description>Entrepreneurs, zip up your parkas and head for the plains!
