...Europe's Return Re: your cover story "Where Did Europe Go?" [March 8]: This is the question that many Greek citizens like myself have been asking every day over the past few months. We were the 10th member state to join the idealized union of nations, which was supposed to unite us all under our common values and culture (which were most of them, incidentally, inspired by Hellenic heritage) in order to fight together for a better and fairer world. Or that was the story they sold us anyway. Where is the E.U. now that the Greeks need it? Where...
...Matisse relocated to Nice, in the south of France, and in much of his work over the next three decades he would return - you might say retreat - to more conventional renderings of space and form. Decades passed before other artists began to draw out the full implications of his fertile experiments. Color-field paintings, for example - the big monochrome wafers of Ellsworth Kelly, the gossamer pools of pigment in Helen Frankenthaler - would emerge directly from Matisse, but not until the 1950s.

...call on Thursday, April 8, to Roza Otunbayeva, the opposition leader now in command of the impoverished Central Asian state. He promised her financial aid, legitimacy and a "special relationship" with the Kremlin, and she gladly accepted. The move was significant: it seems clear now that Kyrgyzstan will quickly return to Moscow's sphere of influence after months of strained relations with Russia, making the U.S. military presence in the country all the more precarious...
Though originally due to return on April 7, Olmert remains in a hotel in Madrid, and associates now say he will be not be returning for another week. If and when he does, the police will be waiting for him at the airport, government sources told TIME, and the Israeli media are already speculating that he may be taken into custody. Olmert's lawyer has denied that his client has done anything that would warrant being arrested. On Thursday, the lawyer asked that the former Prime Minister's ongoing trial be halted so as to not be confused with...
