Domingos Ximenes pulls off his T shirt to reveal a body that tells the story of two decades of war and suffering. On his left arm is a map of East Timor in the grip of a fist; on his right arm and across his chest tumble rough tattoos of a sacred bird, a Bible and crucifix, and a spear. In many places scars show through the faded images, souvenirs of countless battles in the bush. Four years after the end of the war against Indonesia's occupation, this former guerrilla fighter has no job and little sense of purpose...
...chapter-size biographies reveal, three of the four photographers not only died in a combat zone but grew up in one. The peerless Burrows, who lived through London's Blitz, would surprise young U.S. Army photographers he worked alongside in Vietnam by always bringing pajamas to the front.

As a boy, Shimamoto watched American B-29 incendiary bombers weave through flak above nighttime Tokyo (a "beautiful sight...
...China, renowned AIDS researcher Dr. David Ho announced that a modified HIV treatment had the potential to block the virus from infecting human cells in the first place.

Iraqis, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said recently, will "figure out a way to manage their affairs" that will be "consistent with the principles that we set out." (Those principles, just so you know, don't extend...
...dozens of unsolved murders. A special courtroom is being built in downtown Belgrade, with secret booths and bulletproof glass, for a trial set to start in July. Military reforms, long delayed, are gathering pace too. Defense Minister Boris Tadic last week ordered members of the armed forces to reveal whatever they know of the whereabouts of suspected war criminals. At least one war-crimes suspect is expected to turn himself in this week, Tadic tells TIME. "This was Djindjic's vision," Tadic says. "Sadly, it took his death to put it into effect." --By Andrew Purvis and Dejan Anastasijevic/Belgrade
