...little stress. But the whole ordeal seems to just bounce off them, as if they each have bulletproof vests. Katerina's gold, and the $100,000 sponsor bonus it delivers, surely helps (though another $100,000 from Matt would have been nice). Their post-Olympic dream: build a log cabin, preferably near a lake in Minnesota, and raise some kids. They're quite the happy couple, but make no mistake - there's something missing. "It's like two plus two is not adding up to four," says Matt. "It's adding up to 3.99 or something. It's almost...
...McCain's multiple mansions or $500 shoes detract from his economic plans, and just about impossible to see how Obama's decision to vacation near his grandmother in Hawaii undercuts his claim to economic leadership. But ever since the wealthy Whig William Henry Harrison's brilliant "log cabin and hard cider" campaign, candidates have tried to strike an Everyman pose, and missteps that have made them look "out of touch" - like George H.W.

The three-, four- and seven-day journeys include daily excursions on skiffs - manned by guides from the local Bora and Yagua tribes - into remote Amazon villages...
...Lima-based architect Jordi Puig, who relied on the Amazon's natural bounty for both innovation and inspiration. Decks, floors and furnishings on the 130-ft. (40 m) vessel are crafted from Amazonian hardwoods such as shihuahuaco, cabreuva and caoba. Gray slate from Brazil was used to finish cabin walls, and the bedding is made from Peruvian cotton. There are no TVs in the cabins - only huge windows that provide panoramic views: "Nature's plasmas," says Aqua CEO Francesco Galli Zugaro. Meanwhile in the kitchen, baby-faced Peruvian chef Pedro Miguel Schiaffino - veteran of two Michelin-starred restaurants in Italy...
