Are healthy mini-markets the wave of the future?
Carole Freeman | January 7th, 2008 | 1 Comment

Who would have thought that the third largest retailer in the world would go small instead of big? With Wal-Mart and Costco eating up the “Mom and Pop” stores, it is not a bet that many retailers would be willing to make. You may not have heard of Tesco, but the British retailer […]





What’s Your NEW?
Roger Becker | October 11th, 2007 | No Comments

The New. It’s what everyone is talking about, and can’t get enough of. It’s as if all of us, all of humanity cries out, “What’s next?” We want the “NEW”! And I won’t lie. I do too. I have this innate desire to try, experience, even help create the “NEW”.

Nicholas Tomczek | October 10th, 2007 | 1 Comment

To even watch the intro to FIFA ’08 and hear the words “It’s in the game!” makes me cringe. I love soccer and was a huge fan of the FIFA soccer series that Electronic Arts (EA) has produced but the latest version is by far the worst thing I have ever played (I am referring […]

As prices of the pale hued, nutritionally inferior, bland tasting store bought fruits continue to move skyward, I find myself longing for delicious, tasty sweet fruits from the garden. I thought I was being rather […]

Carole Freeman | September 19th, 2007 | 3 Comments

Who would have guessed that anal leakage would have been a successful motivator in the weight loss wars? The colorful kiosk at your local grocery store for the new over-the-counter diet drug, Alli, warns users to “make sure you are ready”. They slyly imply that you should be ready to lose weight, but what they […]





How Stuff Works in Video
Jesse Chan | September 12th, 2007 | No Comments

VideoJug and 5min are the the video versions of How Stuff Works. They both help to answer day-to-day questions. In my opinion, VideoJug has a nicer user-interface as well as a larger library of content. However, I would keep both in mind; if one doesn’t have the answer to your question the […]
