  2. ... LII: Tip of the Week: Introducing "Classic Content"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Sharp-eyed readers of New This Week may notice that several of the
    records for this week were introduced in earlier editions. We have
    begun tapping into our searchable, browsable database of over
    14,000 records to "recycle" a very few items every week when in
    our opinion these records represent high-quality Web content on
    relevant topics. This week we reintroduce records on the seasons,
    terrorism, Jayson Blair, the Iranian holiday Nowrooz, and a
    wonderful database of roses. Enjoy!
