...this struggling Christian, the theory of religion professor Elaine Pagels?that John intended his Gospel to debunk and debase the Gospel of Thomas?is as plausible as it is unsettling. If Pagels is correct, does John play equally fast and loose with the truth in the sayings he attributes to Jesus? John's Gospel is the most direct assertion that Jesus is the son of God, and if this Gospel were put aside as unreliable, then Christians would be much closer to being left with a man who is merely another prophet, a peer of Confucius, Buddha and Muhammad...

...extra gigabytes of storage. Apple's Steve Jobs, never at a loss for words, has an answer: "It costs a lot of money to make these things."

There's a new Lasik in town. You remember the old Lasik, the eye operation that improves vision by reshaping the cornea with lasers. The new version is called wavefront-guided Lasik and depends on technology developed by astronomers to correct problems in high-powered telescopes. Wavefront Lasik uses 200 little lenses to map the cornea, taking into account all its bumps and abnormalities to produce a highly accurate, individualized prescription.
