This is the first project of the new Utne Institute, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting independent voices in the media and new ideas in the broader culture. For more information, see www.utneinstitute.org

This issue also marks the addition of a new Utne department, Focus, which offers alternative views on issues and opportunities we face in everyday life. The focus this time is on creating a more natural, satisfying way of living. Next issue will look at travel and outdoor adventures, and later sections will focus on energy issues, health and food.

With a mixture of sadness and admiration, I announce that executive editor Craig Cox has left Utne to pursue his lifelong dream of running a newspaper. His new Minneapolis Observer covers the politics, culture, and overall spunk and spirit of our town.

Craig made a name for himself as editor of the Twin Cities alt weekly City Pages and the national magazine Business Ethics, before joining us in 1994 as managing editor. Without his calm strength, hard work, and quick mind, Utne would not be the magazine it is today. He has always stood as a firm voice reminding us that we are a marketplace of ideas for everyone, not a boutique of fashionable trends for the cognoscenti. While I truly miss his talents and wry sense of humor around the office, I can't wait to see how The Minneapolis Observer will shake things up around town.
