Travel industry struggles and mixed Midwest gains
The Midwest reports growth with Crane Orchards inn and restaurant thriving as prices and promotion draw visitors, while Wonatington monuments, Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, and Colonial Williamsburg show declines. Across the country, resort towns from Martha’s Vineyard to Southern California face weaker attendance, higher park prices, and softening tourism due to lingering recession and spending anxieties.

Fetuses can recognize voice of mothers in utero
In studies presented at the American Psychological Association meeting, fetuses and newborns showed preference for familiar maternal speech. Babies used sucking rate to choose hearing their mother’s recited passage or another story, implying early linguistic knowledge. Researchers note brain hemisphere specialization may drive this, influenced by genes and prenatal exposure.
