...member of the team did survive. Though the military has not released the name of the SEAL (the U.S. military seldom gives out the names of its special-operations personnel), TIME pieced together his story on the basis of briefings with U.S. military officials in Afghanistan plus an exclusive account of how Gulab, an Afghan herdsman, rescued the wounded commando. What emerges is the tale of a courageous U.S. fighter facing impossible odds in unfamiliar terrain, stalked by the enemy and stripped of everything but his gun and his will to survive. But it is also a story of mercy...
...another must seem a blast from the past. A blast of musty air, that is, best suited for quaint old art-film houses, where the scent of cappuccino mixes with an aura of intellectual smugness. Titles like The Naked Night, Smiles of a Summer Night, The Seventh Seal, Wild Strawberries, The Virgin Spring, Through a Glass Darkly, The Silence, Persona, Cries and Whispers, Autumn Sonata, Fanny and Alexander and After the Rehearsal, which once constituted a summa-cum-laude cinematic honor roll, have since tumbled into Trivial Pursuit territory...

To seal the deal, Siemens management agreed to pay BenQ $300 million?cash that will help BenQ to shore up the business, according to the companies. Siemens also agreed to buy $60 million in BenQ stock. Despite the fact that Siemens virtually paid BenQ to take the troubled phone unit...
...make coleslaw, and listens like a customer, the ejection detonator between his thighs. Northrop Corp. spent nearly $1 billion to develop the F-20, and has been trying for the past two years to persuade Washington to place an order. Unless the F-20 gets Uncle Sam's seal of approval, the bird won't fly with foreign buyers, for whom it was mainly designed in the first place. Northrop will soon get a chance to prove that its long and largely successful p.r. campaign for the F-20 was justified: the Tigershark will go head to head with...
