...Starbucks began life as a place to get a killer cup of coffee, espresso or cappuccino. A commodity turned into an art form. Great idea. Liquid bliss. But now it's an overcrowded, underdesigned mess. Even McDonald's coffee has been rated higher than Starbucks by Consumer Reports. Your joe has lost its mo. And that's your fault, Howard. And Wall Street's. As a public company, Starbucks is under constant pressure to grow same-store sales to make investors happy. Fair enough. So, like every other retailer, you've asked the question: What else can I run through...

...heard the remix disc, I can’t say whether it will promote the same sense of psychedelic euphoria when combined with illegal substances. But the un-remixed album will make your toes curl up with delight. Even if you’re not partial to trance-like bliss, recommend the album to your stoned-out friends or put it on to unwind, you poor, stressed-out student. —Reviewer Joshua J.

...Antibodi Well, who said this theme was exclusively white? With its lip-smackingly red accents, Patricia Urquiola's hammock-like Antibodi chair is almost flirtatious. Created by the Spanish designer for Moroso, its petal pattern conjures images of lying on a bed of water lilies. Sensual bliss. www.moroso.it...

...Hollande appears outmaneuvered, exposed - some say - as a capable yet cornered party leader struggling to remain relevant. And who knows how the fallout from the kafuffle affected the domestic bliss of the Hollande-Royal household. To protect their relationship, the couple could learn from American political pugilists James Carville and Mary Matalin, who keep things interesting at home by earning their keep doing battle for opposite sides. Perhaps Hollande ought to be advising Royal's probable conservative foe, Nicolas Sarkozy? And there's got to be a lesson somewhere in all of this for Hillary Clinton...
