Onetime model and antifur activist HEATHER MILLS, 38, and her Beatle husband of four years, SIR PAUL MCCARTNEY, 63, left, have officially announced their separation. And across the globe, former No. 1 golfer GREG NORMAN, 51, told an Australian newspaper that he is splitting with LAURA, his wife of 25 years.

But what Julia Child, all 6 ft. 2 in. of her, loved most was the oddly captivating things the French ate, things that nobody ate where she was from, provincial Pasadena, Calif. When her husband Paul moved them both to Paris after World War II, she learned to cook snails and everything else expertly.
