[@Will_Richmond]( Good morning, I'm Will Richmond at [The Providence Journal]( and this is the Daily Briefing. I'll admit, my grocery shopping routine isn't the most efficient. There are lots of options living near Route 2 in Warwick and it's not unusual for the effort to get everything we want to include stops at Trader Joe's and BJ's before rounding things out at Dave's. The trip to Dave's usually means more than groceries. Prepared foods, maybe a slice of pizza or a crispy chicken sandwich. As the small Rhode Island chain has grown over the years, they haven't found a home in Providence but could that change? With Stop & Shop's parent company announcing it was closing the popular Eastside Marketplace, Journal columnist Mark Patinkin has an idea for how to replace the store. But first, Mark would need to get his first taste of Dave's to make sure it would be a suitable replacement. Yes, that's right, Mark Patinkin had never been to a Dave's Fresh Marketplace.

Each day I'll share where Rhody Ranks from one of the latest emails. New research has found that students in Rhode Island appear the ninth most money-motivated when it comes to selecting their college major and the schools they hope to attend. The study conducted by business accounting experts, [Avenues Financial]( used Google Keyword Planner to identify the search volume relating to the most lucrative college majors at the top schools in the country. Search terms such as â[subject] majorâ, â[subject] salaryâ and â[school] applicationâ were analyzed using the 95 US universities named in the Top Universities global ranking alongside the 16 highest-paying college majors, determined by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) as having a median mid-career salary of $90,000 or more.
