...semis. Just hope they get there. "Spain is the anti-Germany," says Keller, who played in La Liga for Rayo Vallecano. "Spain will do everything possible to not get into the final." The problem, says Reyna, is that Spain would rather win a 5-3 goal fest than grind it out 1-0 like the Italians. Yet Spain's game, says Keller, "is the style of game that everybody wants to see. Everybody has respect for Sweden. But what do you want to watch?" As a goalkeeper, Keller doesn't want to watch Cristiano Ronaldo standing over a free kick...
...population shops for Land Rovers and new condos, while beneath the ground, magma chambers churn, occasionally rising to the surface with varying degrees of destruction. Iceland straddles the mid-Atlantic ridge, where the Eurasian and North American plates are slowly drifting apart.

...Turn to the Left India is no stranger to violent rebellion, as the decades-long struggle in Kashmir attests. But the separatist conflict there and low-level insurgencies in the country's remote northeast grind on at the periphery, driven by groups agitating to break away.

Even the lazy have a right to God shots at home, I suppose...
...With his own songs, like "Bump N' Grind," Kelly was hardly shy about his sexual proclivities. In 1994, Kelly married one of his earliest proteges, the singer Aaliyah. She was apparently just 15 years old, but said she was 18; the marriage was annulled. But as Kelly's fame grew, so, too, did word on the street that he liked to prowl suburban shopping malls and even a downtown Chicago McDonald's for young women. Kelly's spokesman, Allan Mayer, told TIME earlier this week: "Look, he used to hang out at the Rock 'N Roll McDonald's - they...
