Once upon a time, a tall lava plug called Mount Amjer spurned the advances of a volcanic vixen named Mount Tioueyin and refused to leave Mount Tahat, even though Tahat was already married to another mountain. So Tioueyin did what any self-respecting monolith would do: she left town. She moved 150 km southwest and took a suitor, Mount Iherh?, with...

His centerpiece for the museum, in Milwaukee, Wis., is a tall sunscreen with wings that open and close.

First, a dishy book on her sons came out, revealing that Prince William has for years been bringing "tall, leggy blonds" home to his suite at St. James's Palace, for what in Britain is referred to as "tea," claims author Christopher Andersen. Simply shocking behavior from a 19-year-old who expects to be the King of England and was nicknamed "DDG"--for Drop-Dead Gorgeous--by his mum. More surprising perhaps was a report in the conservative...
