Arena
Magazine, an Australian independent publication, is thick
with commentary and analysis on political, social, and cultural
topics of national and international interest. The June/July issue
peers into the crannies for the lesser-told stories, like the women
organizing for Timor-Leste's independence, or the less-heard voices
in the environmentalist-logger debate in Tasmania. In ''Sleep No
More,'' Simon Cooper wonders, If new pill technology can allow us
to postpone sleep for two days, will all this awake time with
ourselves be a bad thing? -- Rachel Anderson

The new issue of
Sustainable
Industries (July 2006) takes a look at Hollywood and the
law separately, though the two are combined on the cover by
featuring recently arrested actress and activist Daryl Hannah.
After highlighting the green dabbling of Brad Pitt and Time Warner,
the issue heads to the courts. 'Day in the life of a 'sustainable'
lawyer' lets readers peak into the hypothetical counsel's PDA,
which is filled with tasks like 'review social and environmental
warranties' and 'update on carbon trading project.' The rear of the
magazine lists brief technological developments in energy, green
building, agriculture, and recycling. -- Rachel
Anderson
