...DIED. Arnold Newman, 88, who snapped 49-cent portraits in his native Philadelphia before creating photographs that graced the covers of LIFE, Look and other publications, and developing a technique that became known as "environmental portraiture"; in New York City. By exaggerating or minimizing his subjects' surroundings, he crafted impressionistic gems-most famously, a 1946 portrait of Igor Stravinsky in which a piano lid helps form the shape of a musical note, below-that suggested his sitters' personalities. In 1963 he infuriated Nazi-German industrialist and alleged Nazi collaborator Alfred Krupp with an intentionally demonic portrait. "As a Jew," Newman...

And, unlike the moderate Republican governor, the 52-year-old Harvard grad is an unabashed liberal who supports hiking the taxes of rich Californians, legalizing gay marriage and granting driver's licenses to undocumented workers...
...matter what this Republican attack machine throws at me, I'm ready. It's important to remember that Arnold Schwarzenegger has hired lots of the Bush-Cheney team to run his re-election. The fact is, the hits I may take in this election are nothing compared to the hits that students and working families have taken under this Governor. I'm ready for the battle...
