After sixteen years, Radiance ("The magazine for large women") has shifted from print to online publication for financial reasons. Publisher Alice Ainsfield says she's struggled unsuccessfully to make Radiance self-sustaining, but hopes the magazine will eventually return to print. Meanwhile its Web site promotes body acceptance and the radical idea that big women can be beautiful and healthy. (www.radiancemagazine.com)
Taijiquan Journal enters its second year covering t'ai chi, the Chinese martial art now practiced by an estimated 3 million people in the U.S. The simply-designed magazine includes articles about t'ai chi's various disciplines and personal writings by teachers and students, as well as news and reviews. (Box 80538, Minneapolis, MN 55408; $27; www.taijiquan journal.com)
Speak magazine has called it quits with its 21st issue. Nominated for Utne Reader's Alternative Press Award last year in the Cultural Coverage category, it has provided ongoing ahead-of-the-curve arts coverage.
