...Fragile Peace Naturally, archaeology's Jerusalem Syndrome is not limited to a single religion. Many Muslim scholars refuse to believe that a Jewish temple ever existed beneath the Haram al-Sharif, or Temple Mount, even though thousands of Jews flock every day to pray at the Western Wall. The Waqf - Jerusalem's Islamic authority - made Jews furious in 1999 when they built an underground mosque inside the Haram al-Sharif and, according to irate Israeli scholars, gouged out "several hundred" trucks' worth of debris, destroying evidence that might shed light on Judaism's holiest site.

Journeying to the year 2154, moviegoers everywhere have embraced the film - surely the most vivid and persuasive creation of a fantasy world ever seen in moving pictures - as a total sensory, sensuous, sensual experience. The planet Pandora is a wonder world of flora and fauna: a rainforest (where it rarely rains) of gigantic trees and phosphorescent plants, of flying steeds, panther dogs and hammerhead dinosaurs. Audiences are just as beguiled by Pandora's humanish tribe, the Na'vi - the lean...
...looking. It is one of the hosts of the World Cup this June and July, when hundreds of millions of soccer fans will be focused on the planet's most popular sport. At the same time, June 26-28, Cape Town will also be the site of the first-ever FORTUNE/TIME/CNN Global Forum, a three-day event bringing together FORTUNE 500 CEOs, world leaders and members of the TIME 100 for a conference on what we're calling the New Global Opportunity. This is the idea that global economic power is shifting to the developing world--to Africa...
