...recent training session of the Los Angeles Galaxy found only four fans braving the 90-degree heat to watch the relatively anonymous soccer stars execute their training drills on a beautifully manicured field a few hundred yards from the 27,000-seat Home Depot Center. But the tranquility of those training sessions may be about to end, as fans, groupies and paparazzi jostle for a glimpse of the Galaxy's new signing - English superstar David Beckham. Starting with a game on July 21, the former Real Madrid "galactico" will put his creative midfield skills to work creating and scoring goals...
...important when you're cruising on the highway at 120 m.p.h. (We tested the car in Europe.) On the winding back roads in the beautiful Argonne area of France, the ride was tight and sporty yet still luxe, at least in the front seats. The interior also features heat-deflecting leather so the seat won't scorch you when you leave the top down. The six-speed manual transmission is buttery, particularly on the downshift. In town, a new feature prevents the car from rolling backward when you take your foot off the brake to accelerate after you've stopped...

Six kitchen butchers double-grind ultra-lean round and rump steaks, mixing in a secret ratio of "clean" fat, and then double-press the patties in a mold to ensure cooking consistency...
Ironically, it is air conditions that are a main contributor to global warming, prompting scientists to look for ways to mitigate the heat in the short-term without contributing to its even greater pitfalls in the long-term...
