...trends. The latest: fast-fashion retailing. During the Golden Week holiday in early May, typically a shopping extravaganza, Los Angeles-based chain Forever 21 debuted its flagship store in Japan. Harajuku girls lined up on five floors full of clothes, shoes and accessories in enough of a dizzying array to make any young woman swoon.

By allowing astronomers to study objects in space not visible in other wavelengths, it should record the formation of protostars for the first time...

In the array of “discovery” tools available to civil litigators for building a case pre-trial, deposition is one of the most powerful—an opportunity for one side’s lawyers to conduct a virtual interrogation of potential witnesses, often at their own law offices, with a court reporter present to transcribe.
