...shape for Sydney, TIME assembled its own stellar team, including senior editor Robert Sullivan and chief of reporters Jane Bachman Wulf. Between them, Sullivan and Wulf have attended more than a dozen Olympics for our sister publication SPORTS ILLUSTRATED. (SPORTS ILLUSTRATED/Time Inc. is an official Olympic sponsor.) This week Sullivan profiles Marion Jones, the Games lead story. To watch her compete in Brussels, Sullivan says, was "to see a stadium full of track-crazed fans screaming for their hero, and to get a feeling for what she's trying to accomplish on a worldwide stage."

"I grew up in a multiethnic, multiracial, multireligious community, and I was lucky," Lieberman told TIME last week. "I cannot remember a single instance of anti-Semitism in my youth. That undoubtedly is why I'm so optimistic about the country...
ERIC CHASE ANDERSON may be called a political cartographer. That's how best to describe someone who wandered through Carthage, Tenn., sketching Al Gore's hometown and interviewing his boyhood friends. The result is, as he puts it, "a memoir in the shape of a map." It's part geography, part story--a concept he created two years ago when he drew a map for his family at Christmas. That one was a tribute to his stepmother's minivan. The gift was a big hit, and he's been mapping ever since...
