    Religious group, grocery clerks to appeal to Safeway CEO's faith ALEX VEIGA, AP
    LOS ANGELES - A religious group hopes it can speed an end to the 15-week Southern California grocery worker strike-lockout by making a faith-based appeal directly to the chief executive of one of the supermarket operators.

    The group, known as CLUE, which stands for Clergy and Laity United for Economic Justice, is behind plans for a demonstration on Wednesday near the home of Safeway Inc. CEO Steve Burd, who the grocery workers' union leadership regards as the chief strategist behind the supermarket companies' effort to scale down their share of employees' health care costs.
