...June 6, that made no sense either, especially once God smiled by making the weather bad enough to convince Rommel and the Germans that no invasion was coming but good enough, during a crucial 36-hour window, to make it possible after all. It was raining sideways the day before, Eisenhower recalled, as the commanders listened to weather reports. Assured that the Allies would have to pass up this optimal alignment of tides and moon because of the impenetrable storm, Rommel got to slip home to celebrate his wife's birthday. Wars are won and lost over decisions...

...Roman Catholic Church, it amounts to an abomination. The Vatican laid out its position against the trend in a 12-page judgment last summer, thundering that "there are absolutely no grounds for considering homosexual unions to be in any way similar or even remotely analogous to God's plan for marriage and the family. Marriage is holy, while homosexual acts go against the natural moral law." Muslim authorities are as adamantly opposed to it, and in France the Protestant Church has expressed reservations. Still, last year, predominantly (though only nominally) Catholic Belgium went almost as far as its northern neighbor...

Mostly the trouble stems from a Fairy Godmother who thinks her handsome, egomaniac son would be a much better mate for Fiona, but who goes to Shrek movies for the plot?

...bottom half to go faster. The Pole, world-record holder in the 50-km racewalk, is zooming. "When I train with him," says Norway's Kjersti Plätzer, the 2000 Olympic silver medalist in the women's 20 km, "he walks and I run. He's a god - the walker." In Athens, Korzeniowski, the best racewalker of all time, will seek to gild his greatness with one last gold. He already holds three world titles and three Olympic golds, including two from 2000, when he became the first man ever to sweep the 20-km and 50-km races...
