...increasing numbers of holidaymakers?at least according to the American Association of Nude Recreation (AANR), which compiled the figures above. And it's not just happening in the U.S., either. Across the world, a crop of tour operators has emerged to cater to anyone who wants to grin and bare it. You can go bush walking in the Australian outback or skiing in Austria (the town of Obertraun is described as "Europe's nude ski mecca"), all without wearing a stitch. There are naturist flights to Canc?n in Mexico (they can be combined with a week in the El Dorado...
Jihad leader Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi, the Jordanian terrorist and the most wanted man in Iraq, this weekend released a telling window into his organization, Attawhid wal Jihad, or Unity and Jihad. In a slickly produced hour-long video Zarqawi lays bare the milieu of his suicide bombers, their safehouses, their rituals and their targeting guidelines. Given directly to TIME, the video is a bold, menacing statement of the group's intent and capability. The subtext of this disturbing tape is that for the U.S. this is likely to be a long, drawn out fight in Iraq against a committed...
...less palatable display of dissent, the College was exposed to the bare bodies of bold protesters in the Square.

"My family is gone and my house is gone too," said 40-year-old Rosin Madombe, whose two small children drowned before she could get them out of her now-submerged house. "What am I supposed to do?" With hurricane season only a few months off, relief organizations rushed to assist the poorest country in the western hemisphere. "A few months ago we couldn't move because of security," said Guy Gavreau of the U.N. World Food Program. "Now we can't move because...
Though the original Minimalists didn't think of themselves as a school, to outsiders they always looked like one. Andre's steel plates and piles of bricks, Donald Judd's Plexiglas and wooden boxes, Robert Morris' big plywood L shapes, Dan Flavin's bare fluorescent light tubes, Frank Stella's pinstriped canvases--they all flowed from a shared premise. As much as possible, the art object should be based on a single form that announces itself all at once or on a repeated form that produces a similar effect. It should not involve varied surfaces or a balance of different...
