...closet full of Versace and Armani. His rock-star mane and six-pack abs have helped cast him as a pitchman for Amway and Bausch & Lomb. Guo, with her porcelain-doll features and two silver medals from the Sydney Olympics, is an equally alluring marketing phenomenon: she has won ad and sponsorship deals with McDonald's and Budweiser-not, of course, that she'd be caught corrupting her slim physique with a diet of beer and Teriyaki McRib burgers. Rumors of a romance between Tian, 24, and Guo, 22-though it can never be officially confirmed or sanctioned-have only...
...much as $250. But the real cost is to the environment, according to WildAid, a San Francisco-based environmental foundation. WildAid says the oceans' ecosystem is under threat from the annual slaughter of an estimated more than 50 million sharks, and the organization launched a print- and TV-ad campaign in mid-2001 that shows fishermen slicing fins off sharks and kicking them back into the sea to die.

The actual Who - surviving members Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend - playing their songs that have been adapted as "CSI" themes (for "CSI: NY," it's "Baba O'Reilly"), for what amounts to a sales conference of ad men, brand managers and TV affiliate executives. It was one of the sadder things I've ever seen, and yet it was somehow appropriate. They closed with "Won't Get Fooled Again" - the "CSI: Miami" theme - which, for its time (1971), was an unusually conservative anthem, in that its message...
