...Burt’s Beeswax lip balm is minty fresh in scent and refreshing on the lips. Don’t be fooled by the cute, yellow containers—this stuff is heavy duty enough to keep Burt and his motorcycle gang’s lips from chapping. $2.98 for a .15 oz. stick. Harvard Coop...
...show, this has been a pretty fathomable and user-friendly year for the duo. They did a capsule collection of j180 tuxedos, ?60 shirts and ?170 trousers for the famous La Redoute mail-order catalog in France.

The book's strangest quality is that it has only the faintest tint or scent of India. Except for proper names, the book's vernacular and cultural references are almost entirely American, and impressively authentic at that. The hard-boiled dialogue is straight out of classic Hollywood, a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the Anglo-American spy spoof. If Bond and Matt Helm outrageously flout social...
