...particularly significant question now, in the wake of an Israeli air attack on Sunday that killed nearly 60 Lebanese refugees, mainly children, who had taken shelter from a heavy Israeli bombardment in an apartment building in Qana. The incident remains under investigation, and few details of the actual attack are known. But an Israeli Colonel, who asked to be identified only by his initial A. and who commands a fighter squadron that has flown 1,000 sorties over Lebanon during the past 20 days, spoke exclusively to TIME about the agonizing choices in general that Israeli pilots are forced...

...court, we saw everything from the hilarious (the time we soundly defeated a troop of 12-year-old challengers) to the borderline pathetic (how much we relished in loudly swatting the same 12-year-olds’ jump shots). In general, though, the details of our actual games are pretty unremarkable.

LEMONS NEVER LIE RICHARD STARK "GROFIELD opened the closet door and the wrestler smiled up at him with his slit throat." Grofield is a summer-stock actor who moonlights as a usual-suspects-type contract criminal. He's a thief, not a psycho-killer, so when an actual murderous nut job tries to hire him, he walks away. He should have run. Instead, Grofield winds up in this first-rate hard-boiled mystery by Richard Stark (also known to aficionados of the genre by his real name, Donald E. Westlake), which reads like Raymond Chandler with a dark literary whisper...

Feelings run so strong on this issue that opponents have built a practical case to bolster the ethical one. The promise of embryonic stem cells has been oversold, they argue, while actual progress using adult stem cells has been overlooked. Though advocates talk longingly about the 400,000 frozen embryos in fertility clinics, a Rand Corp. study in 2003 found that 86% of them have been designated by patients for their future use or someone else's--there are approximately 100 "snowflake kids," children born from adopted frozen embryos--and only 2.8% for research.
