...from serving at the front, instead he painted camouflage on airplanes. But that didn't keep him from suffering the tragedies of war: his good friends and colleagues Franz Marc and August Macke died in combat. These experiences are reflected in Klee's work, although it's not always obvious at first glance. The abstract drawing After a Drawing From the Year 1919, for example, reduces an air attack on a boat to bare lines and geometrical shapes. In Klee's depictions of aerial battles, war planes look like birds, and often it's only the titles - Crashing Bird...

President Bush has promised to begin sending 8,000 more troops before he leaves office, and both presidential candidates have pledged at least an additional two brigades.

Counterinsurgency expert John Nagl has estimated that there should be 600,000 troops--including Afghan ones--inside the country to quell the Taliban and al-Qaeda threat.

"Nothing is going to replace a well-trained psychiatrist providing face-to-face treatment. But it may bring a different set of patients to mental health who can benefit." Patients like the women Stark has reached. Even if the only advantage of telemental health were to bring like-suffering people together on the Web, say experts, that...
...obvious why the economy is trumping race? Even racists worry first about their jobs and mortgages. But more seriously, are TIME and the rest of the media creating an issue that doesn't really exist? Barack Obama has proved his ability to reach out to a broad spectrum of U.S. voters. He didn't win the Democratic nomination on the votes of people of color alone. Lenny Bernstein, Asheville...
