...village of Kersa have echoed with the wails of women walking in from the fields. They gather on a patch of open grass before a stretcher made from freshly cut bamboo, bound and laid with banana leaves. On it is a small bundle wrapped in a red-and-blue blanket. An imam calls the crowd together, asks them to take off their shoes and arranges them in two lines, women behind men, facing east. "Allahu akbar," he says twice. Then four men pick up the bier, easily handling its weight with one arm, and walk a short...

Overhead, a 44-foot yoke of LED screens, designed by David Rockwell to echo the undulating roof line of the nearby Saarinen building, hangs from the ceiling, displaying airline promotions...
...estimates that 20 million travelers, or 30% of Kennedy Airport's total traffic, will pass through the terminal every year - with special family gates that have wider lanes to accommodate parents traveling with small children. Just on the other side of the security gates, in front of a luminescent blue wall, architects have thoughtfully installed a long-overdue innovation: a 225-foot bench, where passengers can reassemble their carry-ons and slip back into their stilettos...
