...have entered a Safeway supermarket in Berkeley, Calif., and this noted scholar of American nutrition can't make head or tail of the place. "Very unusual--not very inviting," she sniffs, eyeing checkout counters that seem to pose a barrier to entry. "Where's the produce?" It is then that we realize we have come in via the exit. We re-enter through the correct door, and at once the layout conforms to the immutable laws of grocery-store geometry. The colorful produce and flowers pull us into a world of plenty.

...four aromatic themes - lemongrass, jasmine, orchid and rice. Another pleasing touch is the Tulyanonds' commitment to the environment and the community: showers pump out solar-heated water and the inn's construction incorporates salvaged wood. Guests wanting to do more to save the world can make a donation at checkout to one of the animal or children's charities on the Tulyanonds' list - and the inn will match it.

...then inevitably lots of you are doing both. Sixty percent of today?s college students hold down jobs while they?re enrolled. Here?s where it gets scary. Because when Baby Boomers imagine a working student, they figure you?re clocking a few hours a week at the library checkout counter. But a third of college students with jobs are working full-time (or nearly so). I call these busy student-workers Big Macs. Like the double-decker sandwich with two hamburgers, these students are doubling up on class and McJobs...

We’ve all seen the seedy romances sporting Fabio’s sculpted torso that line supermarket checkout lanes. I like to look at the titillating front covers and read the hilarious backs: voluptuous vixens are always encountering desperately handsome lonely hearts in the woods and the Wild West, and man, those guys must be juicing...
