...decades ago. "Being gay in and of itself, I would hope, wouldn't prevent someone from becoming a priest," he says. All four church-contracted psychologists interviewed by TIME agreed vociferously with his contention that homosexuality doesn't make one more likely to sexually abuse children. For instance, Father Gerard McGlone, a Jesuit psychologist and a vice president of Saint Joseph's University in Philadelphia, believes some tightening of the admission process is appropriate: "I think to a certain extent the Vatican is correct in trying to weed out unhealthy expressions of the homosexual experience." But he is also worried...
...portion features plenty of longing glances and amazing ’40s hairdos from the women, histrionic arm and head gestures from lead singer Gerard Way that aim for “intense” but end up falling somewhere closer to “hilarious,” and–oh God–occasional camera blurring as if the band is being seen through tears. I sincerely hope I’m wrong about the meaning of that last...
...many, that morning was the beginning of a lifetime of struggle--to overcome not only the physical ailments associated with radiation but also the psychic trauma caused by years of rejection from their own society, which shunned the survivors out of fear they could contaminate others.

Greenberg liked to keep his meetings short--say, 10 minutes--and quickly lost patience with anyone not prepared. Then would come the famous Greenberg tongue lashing. His former daughter-in-law Nikki Finke, who knew the family throughout...
There's more to worry the truffle old school. "We saw in experiments that Tuber indicum is very dominant, competitive and aggressive," frets Gerard Chevalier, a researcher at INRA. He paints a scenario in which errant spores from imported Chinese truffles disperse into the air, contaminate the European countryside and beat the fungi out of their more fragile cousins. Already the ancient truffle terroir is being hammered by pesticides and urbanization. Two centuries ago, French black truffles were so abundant that they were cheaper than tomatoes; since then, the average annual truffle harvest in the Prigord region and beyond...
