...then, much later, dug up again. Robinson reports that a leather-bound codex containing the alleged 5th century Coptic version was excavated in Egypt and emerged on the antiquities market in 1983 at a price of $3 million. It was badly damaged and apparently at one point had been torn in half. It is now possessed by a group called the Maecenas Foundation, and in 2004 a Coptic expert named Rodolphe Kasser announced that he was reassembling and translating it. "There are huge holes in it, unfortunately," says Mario Roberty, Maecenas' director. "But I'm astonished at how successful scientists...

...gender ratio leaned hard towards sausage. See that girl over there—the one hypnotically twirling glowsticks as tassels stream from the pockets on her cargo pants? She doesn’t want to dance with you. Neither does the one writhing in corset and leather pants. But whatever your gender, there are plenty of bare-chested guys who do. Also, if you’re not naturally high on life, make sure to consume the proper libations before heading to RISE.

One day when we met, he wore black leather shoes with an unfashionably large buckle, gray pants that were too short and a gigantic double-breasted jacket.

His critics will be delighted to learn that Hayes attended two est trainings in Atlanta years ago. He admits that he also dabbled in meditation seminars...

...testing, driving to Maryland from New York City and back, I found the car delightful. The cockpit felt roomy, featuring a sprawling dashboard and plenty of leg room (though adults in the rear felt squashed). The racing-inspired seats never gave us back problems. We appreciated touches like a leather-wrapped shift-knob and audio controls on the steering wheel.

...Vancouver show, Jungen and some assistants also spent days producing a new work in one of the museum's galleries, an almost 6-m tepee made from the coverings and wooden slats of 11 black leather sofas, the denatured equivalent of cowhides. Home Depot meets home tepee. "We treated the sofas like cattle," he laughs. "We herded them in, then we gutted them, then we skinned them." He didn't brand them first. He didn't have to. You know right away this must be a Jungen...
