...rise. It too was a beautiful film, but it did not merely record a lost world; it peered at it?as if the fold of a dress or the knot of a cravat might possibly contain the secret of life. Or at least a useful clue to correct behavior...

...Sydney German Innovation In reference to your recent article entitled "Labs Get Down to Business" [July 26], I wish to thank TIME for offering such a refreshing and compelling look at how Germany is pressing forward in academic and industrial life-science research. However, it is essential that I correct any false impression that the Max Planck Society (MPG) was an obstacle to the successful founding of our company. On the contrary, Cenix BioScience would never have come into being were it not for the extraordinary assistance and support from the MPG and in particular from its technology transfer agency...

It was just the kind of perfectly secured, glitch-free triumph that the Greeks needed to boost their confidence for the 16 days ahead...

...illustrations by Ted Naifeh, using an unusual palette of black, gray and bronze, strike a harmonic discord between the gay fetishising of beautiful bodies and costumes with the straight pulp illustration of people shooting up and fooling around. Defying the conventions of "positive" gay literature for something much less correct and therefore more interesting, "How Loathsome" echoes the drug-influenced, hallucinatory work of William S. Burroughs. Both Burroughs and Crane and Naifeh give readers of any sexual variety the excitement of grungy, x-rated kicks while leaving them to ponder larger things like the nature of sexual attraction and self...
