...Blue and The Birth of the Cool behind him, Miles was looking in a new direction. Reciprocating the admiration shown for him by such popular artists as Jimi Hendrix and Sly and the Family Stone, Miles pushed his band into new, totally uncharted territory. To some degree, the map of the journey was set by Bitches Brew, Miles' controversial electric jazz album. But Miles was moving even further, with a new lineup, a new sound and a new vision...
...Jewish calender, these days are called the 10 days of return, or repentance--days to take stock of the year, to ask forgiveness from those whom you've potentially hurt and to begin to look forward to the year to come. I have always felt that these days map well onto the opening of the school year, organizing time for much-needed and easily-ignored consideration of where I have come in the past year and where I would like to see myself go and how I can get there. This year, my last one at Harvard, has leant itself...
Though HD afflicts just 25,000 Americans, with 125,000 more at risk, it illustrates the growing urgency to develop sound genetic-testing practices. As medical researchers race toward completing a map of the human genome, with its estimated 50,000 to 100,000 genes, they are discovering new genes, their role in specific diseases, and new diagnostic tests--all at a breathtaking pace. Within 30 years, researchers expect to be able to produce a genetic "fingerprint" of an individual's potential future health that will enable doctors to wage pre-emptive battle. Already, testing before any symptoms appear makes...
...Interpol, national police from half a dozen countries--through the decades and across the map of Europe and Scandinavia--they all chased Einhorn. There were stakeouts; interviews with monied acquaintances, including an international rock star and a billionaire socialite; and even a brief attempt by a vigilante cyberposse from Australia to stalk the computer junkie by Internet. Three times in those 16 years, police were close enough to feel his heat. Each time, Einhorn melted away. Now, in remote Champagne-Mouton, another chance...
...revamp is unlikely to raise the same outcry. Last week's color photographs--like a food-section collage of colored pastas arranged into a map of Italy--were eye-catching but decorous. Stories in the new sections included such entertaining fare as a look at cookbook recipes that don't work and a design review of TV talk-show sets. But make no mistake: this is still your father's New York Times. The lead story in Monday's arts section was about a dead opera singer--Maria Callas--while an architecture review of a new Holocaust museum...
