...sensitivities and sensibilities of good people. (That is: us.) So, in the aesthetico-religious sphere, we defend Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ, which portrays Jesus as a human who slowly learns he's divine, and Kevin Smith's Dogma, a raw comedy about an abortion-clinic worker who is a lineal descendant of Jesus. Anyway, I defended these films in TIME, and I took at face value the testimony of Scorsese, who once contemplated entering the priesthood, and Smith, who describes himself as a devout Catholic, that their films were acts of faith...
...DIED. MARCO PANTANI, 34, flamboyant winner of the 1998 Tour de France, whose racing career collapsed the following year when he failed to pass a test for performance-enhancing drugs; of an apparent drug overdose; in Rimini, Italy. The Italian, who last year checked himself into a clinic in Teolo that specializes in treating depression and drug addiction, wasn't popular with many of his fellow racers but was beloved by fans.

When Ilya Blokhin, a surgeon heading downtown to his job in a private Moscow clinic, heard what sounded like a firecracker go off on his metro train last Friday, a commuter near him muttered, "I'll be late for work."

Within minutes, at least 39 people were dead and 134 were injured. Wreckage and human remains were spread along 164 ft. of the tunnel. "We're taking out the dead, or what...
Sleep is critical to the healing process, yet sound sleep in a hospital is notoriously difficult to come by. To get to the source of the problem, a team of nurses conducted a study at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. The nurses placed noise dosimeters in patient rooms, and two volunteered to sleep over and note bothersome sounds in a thoracic-surgery unit packed with humming equipment and monitors. Peak dosimeter readings as high as 113 decibels--roughly equivalent to the din of a chain saw or jackhammer--came during the 7 a.m. staff changeover...
