Back in 1927, the People section of TIME??began with the rubric "Names make news." From the beginning, Henry Luce's idea for TIME was to explain the news through the people who make it. Luce would have loved the TIME 100, our fourth annual issue in which we name the 100 most influential people on the planet. At the core of the TIME 100 is the idea that individuals--by virtue of their character, their drives and their dreams--change the world and make history. We divide our choices into five categories: Leaders & Revolutionaries, Builders & Titans, Artists & Entertainers, Scientists...
Most of the time??Charles Krauthammercomes across as an odious right-wing bully, but in "Limousine Liberal Hypocrisy" [March 26] he did well in demolishing sanctimonious grandstanding on the environment. What do Western leaders expect nearly 1 billion Chinese and Indian farmers to do--burn one less cow-dung cake to play their part in saving the world? The problem lies in the consumption patterns of the West, not those of ordinary Chinese or Indians. A meaningful dialogue on the environment can happen only when the per capita greenhouse-gas emissions of the West and the developing world equalize...
...would like to thank the editors of TIME??for choosing me as 2006's Person of the Year [Dec. 25, 2006--Jan. 1, 2007]. I promise my family, friends and co-workers that I will not let this title go to my head and that the wealth and fame it will undoubtedly bring me will be used only for the greater good.

...these killjoys, arriving at the same time??as the trick-or-treaters? Why, they're the anti-sugar brigade, warning that plain old table sugar and its gussied up first cousins--honey, molasses, cane sugar, corn syrup and maple syrup--are less than sweet to those who overindulge, and recommending that we stop eating sugar altogether. Two new books, New York Times best seller Dr. Gott's No Flour, No Sugar Diet and Sugar Shock! by Connie Bennett (out in December), caution that the U.S's love affair with sugar is a doomed relationship. (To add insult to injury...
...first time??Donna Maria Coles Johnson spanked her daughter, they both cried. Johnson remembers that afternoon two years ago as if it were yesterday. They had just come home from church, and Vanessa, then 2, refused to take off her dress before nap time. "She gave me this look like she was the mother," Johnson, 43, recalls. "I'm fast-forwarding 16 years in my mind, hearing her say, 'Well, I'm taking the car anyway.'" Without a word, Johnson picked Vanessa up, took her into the bathroom and gave her six slaps on the thigh. After explaining the reason...
