...Foundation Curator Robert H. Giles. A number of fellowship recipients had recently repositioned themselves by leaving broadcast or newspaper journalism for the freelance sector, Giles said. Newspaper reporters, he said, may not have turned out for the fellowship because they were afraid that a prolonged absence from the newsroom might exact a toll on their employment status, or because they worked for newspapers that no longer support long-term fellowships for their staffers. “The standard for selection that we use involves [identifying] people of accomplishment, leadership, and talent to go on in journalism," Giles said. "Whether they...
...Ralph Fiennes) finally scaled Everest, making him the first man to conquer the world's highest peak and cross the North and South Poles unaided. "I get vertigo and don't like looking down," he says of his time at the summit. "But if you are there, you might as well look once." The day after returning to the U.K., the veteran explorer spoke with TIME about his heart attack, his fears and how his family's struggle with cancer motivated his latest - and greatest - expedition.

Security Council might seriously up the ante. Beijing's initial, tepid reaction to Monday's blast - waiting several hours before issuing a statement "condemning" the test - has been toughened, and discussions at the Security Council about possible sanctions are now under...
...documents say there was no evidence in the files to suggest that Kurras was acting on direct Stasi orders to kill Ohnesorg. But the discovery that it was a Stasi spy who shot him has raised new questions about the history of the student movement. Prime among them: how might the student protest movement have developed if Germans had known at the time that Kurras was in the pay of the East German secret police? The question is all the more sensitive since that movement spawned the Red Army Faction, postwar Europe's most deadly terrorist organization, which killed...
