Their income is lower than that of most boomers, yet core luxury millennials are much more psychologically engaged in luxury than their parents' generation. They not only have a more positive attitude toward high-end services and products but are also more interested in owning them???including cars, accessories and home-entertainment units. Percentages below represent those millennials who agree with the following statements...
Adams and Sprenger share an intuitive ability to foresee how a garment or object will best play for the store.

They wrote their checks on May 25, 2000?the very day that DeLay departed...
...have been concerned lately about reports of increasing levels of mercury, PCBS and other contaminants in certain fish species. In my diet I stick to sardines, herring, Alaskan black cod and Alaskan sockeye salmon. All sockeye (red) salmon are wild?fish farmers haven't yet been able to domesticate them???and since those fish are less carnivorous than other types of salmon, they have lower levels of the environmental contaminants that accumulate as you work your way up the food chain. Canned sockeye, available in most supermarkets, is a perfectly good source of omega...
