I'm expecting European paparazzi, women with Sharpies offering their decolletage, or at least furtive glances from other shoppers. Nothing.

In one of his groundbreaking papers written in 1905, when he was still at the patent office, Einstein showed that Planck's quantum hypothesis could explain what is called the photoelectric effect, the way certain metals give off electrons when light falls...

...cantaloupe anyway," says Molloy. Liz Stone concurs. These days, she only sets foot in a regular grocery store about once a month, for the odd item she forgot.
