Imagine making upscale dishes under kitchen heat while being pressured
by hungry customers--before graduating from high school. Teenagers are
already getting their hands into the culinary business and cooking
their way to chefhood.

In 2000, a graphic designer from San Francisco called “Someguy” gave out 1,000 blank journals to strangers around the world. He asked these strangers to add drawings, writings, collages or whatever they saw fit and pass them on to another person. The person who finished the journal was then supposed to send it back to Someguy. Three years after the project’s launch, Someguy found Journal #526, the first journal to return, in his mailbox.

People always say that there are three other people in the world who look just like you. As a twin, I thought such an idea was impossible, totally absurd. A complete stranger could never look like me. But when I met "the Marias," my ideas changed.

have a new bag of tricks up their sleeves.

Located at 1051 Ocean Ave., just off the K tracks and mere blocks from City College, Beep’s Burgers offers quick, modest and tasty meals for an extremely affordable price. Although not quite an all-American staple, Beep’s is fashioned in the style of the classic drive-thru burger joint. Located in urban sprawl, this tiny shack of a restaurant with its derelict parking lot, cartoonish sign and a single table for eating, Beep’s is certainly unpretentious.

Advanced Placement Economics and Modern World teacher Michael Conley doesn’t regret leaving the high-tech industry. “I was making money, but not enjoying what I was doing,” he said. “Here, I enjoy my work, but I make no money. I tell my students it is the greatest trade-off I ever made.”
