...Finally, in the spirit of celebrating the normally unsung, it is a pleasure to acknowledge the contributions of our art director, Michelle Turcs?nyi, and production manager, Gemma Maloney. It's all very well for our writers and photographers to return from afar with their dazzling jumble of words and pictures. But it is Turcs?nyi's flair and expertise that marry them in coherent, eye-pleasing fashion, while the unflappable Maloney, besieged by creative chaos, ensures that this and every other issue of Time meet not just the highest standards of magazine quality but their many tight deadlines.

"The demise of trad-itional communities is due to structures, such as the [defunct] Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Comm-ission, that have been imposed from afar by governments," says school principal Len Boyle. "It's far better now that the money, and responsibility, is in the hands of local comm-unities." Independently run by an Aboriginal community board, the school draws on funding from Perth, Canberra and philanthropists. Indeed, filing grant applications is the heart...
...failure two weeks ago when Bush and al-Maliki announced in Washington that more U.S. troops would be sent to protect Baghdad. But will that work? Probably not.
