The Cleveland Cavaliers met Monday with free agent center Andrew Bynum, the oft-injured 7-footer who didn't play a single game for the Philadelphia 76ers last year because of a knee injury.

Ewen McKenzie never disguised his desire to be Wallabies head coach. He wore the gold jersey in 51 tests, won the 1991 Rugby World Cup, and minutes after he was officially appointed to the Australian job, the ex-front-rower was already laying down the law.

A new study links heavy air pollution from coal burning to shorter lives in northern China. Researchers estimate that the half-billion people alive there in the 1990s will live an average of 5½ years less than their southern counterparts because they breathed dirtier air.

China itself made the comparison possible: for decades, a now-discontinued government policy provided free coal for heating, but only in the colder north. Researchers found significant differences in both particle pollution of the air and life expectancy in the two regions, and said the results could be used to extrapolate the effects of such pollution on lifespans elsewhere in the world.
