That may be why there is one thing you won't find anywhere in Shaq's 15,000-sq.-ft. mansion high above Hollywood, nor in the secret apartment he sometimes escapes to along a sugary swath of beach just south of Los Angeles: a trophy. "My dad never [displayed] any trophies," says O'Neal. "Neither do I. I don't want to look like I'm satisfied." It's all about the team for him now. It's all about winning. Someday soon, though, if the Big Aristotle successfully completes his playoff drive, he just may want to clear...

...senseless, which is saying a lot for a continent where petty squabbles have started wars. Eritrea has had formal independence from Ethiopia for less than a decade--but it has spent the past two years in conflict with its neighbor. The fighting began in 1998, centered on a 154-sq.-mi. disputed triangle of rocky, barren land near the border town of Badme. Since then, an uneasy stalemate has been punctuated by short but fierce set-piece battles that have left tens of thousands dead and hundreds of thousands displaced. Unlike other African wars, which typically pitch poorly armed rebel...

Less atavistic but in its way more chilling is Dutch export Big Brother (making its debut July 6, 8 p.m. E.T.), which turns its participants into an ant farm. Stuck in an 1,800-sq.-ft. house with cameras everywhere (yes, including the bathroom), they'll be on TV five nights a week--and on the Internet 24/7.
