...product is as much about lifestyle, of course, as the car. "Like rock 'n' roll and the movies, industrial design is one of the great art forms of the 20th century, and cars are the very height of industrial design," says Stephen Bayley, one of Britain's leading industrial-design gurus and the curator of a current exhibition on automobiles at London's Royal College of Art. No product but the car demands such elegance in spite of its complexity. No other consumer commodity is expected to be so exclusive and yet so affordable. So personal. So emotional...

He listened to a band named Earth Crisis, read books on animal liberation and became a vegan. One night in 1996, he and some Straight Edge mates drove by a McDonald's still under construction.

Musical miscegenation is the order of the day. Salsa sleeping with ska, rock 'n' roll and hip-hop giving birth to rock-hop. We live in an age of diversifying demographics and turntable mixing, and the result is often beautifully blurred music. Right now, there's no one better at putting out albums that blend the sounds of the times than the New York City-based nonprofit Red Hot Organization. Over the past nine years, Red Hot, working with various record labels, has produced a dozen albums, each one featuring some sly subgenre mix, with all net profits going...

...will have little to do except wait ?- and collect more evidence. After getting the word out to be extra careful with new meteorite finds (previous discoveries have been tainted by suspicions that they had become contaminated by water from Earth's environment), Zolensky has had another hit on a rock that touched down in Morocco. "Lo and behold, it's the same stuff in a different meteorite," he said. Everywhere indeed...
