...truck: "My corner carne asada is better than yours, amigo!" Unlike the Lakers, however, you don't have to be Jack Nicholson to afford the top-of-the-line taco truck experience. Gobbling oniony beef tacos as you rest your paper plate on your car hood and watch the sun set over the freeway traffic will set you back about $3.

The room is dimly lit and already slightly clammy when the students begin huffing and puffing their way through ten repetitions of surya namaskara, or sun salutation, the opening asana. Within a few minutes, their bodies are glistening with sweat as they flex themselves into scary positions, sometimes tugged and pushed by the teacher, all apparently impervious to the army of mosquitoes buzzing all around...
