Christopher Greenslate and Kerri Leonard, high school teachers outside San Diego, were griping about the rising cost of groceries when they decided to see what life is like for the billion people on earth who spend $1 a day on food. The couple's blog took off, and their book, On a Dollar a Day, hit stores in February. They're part of a growing population of consumers chronicling their efforts to do without, swearing off such things as riding in cars and buying clothes - or buying anything new at all.

...they've come. After finishing 19th in the sport at the 2000 Games and 9th four years ago, Chinese teams took silver and bronze in Beijing. The second-placed pair of Tian Jia and Wang Jie weren't strong enough to knock off the U.S. powerhouse duo of Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor, who defended their gold medal from Athens.

...triumphant day for U.S. women's sports at the Olympics, it's downright cruel that softball, the Teflon team that was set for one last coronation, fell short.

Later, the U.S. women's soccer team, which played the tournament without its best player, Abby Wambach, shocked Brazil in the gold medal game, a 1-0 overtime thriller. Brazil had spanked the U.S., 4-0, at last year's World...
