Like the M1 Abrams tank that performed so well in Iraq, Bush does best when moving forward. But he was facing guerrilla attacks last week on both his reasoning for going to war and lack of preparation for the peace. "He is tired of the weed whacking and the process stories," a senior official said of the President. But Bush's problem is bigger than weed whacking. In the latest TIME/CNN poll, Bush's job-approval rating has dropped to 55%, where it stood before 9/11--just barely above his low of 53% in January during the anguished national debate about...
...some troops homesick and disillusioned, their spouses and parents having no idea when they will see their loved ones again--and no end in sight to any of it. At a gate to a 3rd Infantry Division base near Fallujah last week, Sergeant Michael Baroni sat on a tank and dreamed of drinking a glass of fresh milk. After 10 months in the Middle East, he says, "I just want to get out of this country, which, by the way, the Iraqis can have...
...Jimi's acid trips. But what really makes it smart is the fact that it's 100% legal: none of the psychoactive ingredients show up on the Interior Ministry's list of banned ingestible substances.

Water heated by the sun flowed through pipes into a 5,000-gal. storage tank in the building's old coal bin and from there into the building's hot-water system. The project was funded in part with a $112,000 federal grant. Today the solar experiment is long gone. A building workman told TIME that the collectors behaved like sails, swaying back and forth so much...
...with Kris Slava, vice president of acquisitions and scheduling, and gave him a list of shows I wanted to air: The Chevy Chase Show, My Mother the Car, Manimal, Pink Lady and Jeff and Mr. Smith, the 1983 NBC sitcom about an orangutan that ran a Washington think tank. Slava put a lot of work into looking into this and discovered that the freaks who owned Chevy Chase's talk show not only wanted a fortune per episode but would sell us only all 30. Finally, we decided that since we had only a few hours of prime-time programming...
