...these features make the XKR more competitive with sports cars from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and Lexus. What those brands don't have is a model as visually dashing. Designed by Ian Callum, a Scotsman who created the gorgeous Aston Martin DB7, the XKR's flowing roofline tapers off to a rear end that's neither fussy nor overwrought. A few performance elements and design cues punctuate the body: air intakes on the hood, side vents and an R badge on the rear, emblazoned like Superman's S. But the car's elegance speaks for itself. As I pulled...

The museum's shop, a chic, spacious room with black stained cherrywood furniture, gray leather seating and a two-color marble (travertine and rosso levanto) floor, was designed by Briton Callum Lumsden, while its elegant café-restaurant - with a terrace overlooking the leafy Burggarten - was the work of Austrian Arkan Zeytinoglu. Although Schröder says he is most moved by the combination of richness and simplicity of the staterooms, he adds that Duke Albert was above all a great collector...
...anemia in fish farms in Scotland, all the farm-grown fish within 25 miles were slaughtered. A similar anemia outbreak in Maine two years ago led to the destruction of more than 2.5 million fish--and to federal insurance payouts totaling $16 million. "The more aquaculture there is," warns Callum Roberts, senior lecturer in marine conservation at the University of York in England, "the more disease there will...
