Star Crossed

After losing a high stakes bidding war to rival Us Weekly for exclusive photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie strolling along a secluded African beach, Star magazine used doctored photos to recreate the stars' romantic rendezvous on its cover.

The celebrity magazine did little to identify its cover as a graphic sleight of hand, and the headline that accompanied it screams: "Brad & Angelina, Caught Together on Vacation."

The only disclaimer is a small line of type on page 8 of the magazine that reads: "The image on the cover of this issue of Star is a composite of two photographs."

At Lunch with Michael Caruso

During a recent lunch at Michael's restaurant, Men's Journal editor-in-chief Michael Caruso recalls a story about meeting a mapmaker in Kathmandu who was the main cartographer for Nepal, Tibet and northern Laos. Over drinks, Caruso asked the man if there were places that he didn't put on his maps.

"He said, 'Oh yeah, there's a lot of them,'" says the 43-year-old Caruso. "'The Tibetans have a name for them; they're called ba-yuls, which means 'power places' and I respect that and I don't put those in my maps.' I said, 'Really? Why don't you tell me about the last one you were at?' And he drew me a map on the back of a napkin. We ended up going off the Annapurnas trail for a month and we found this place."

Caruso's travel stories have a certain wistful J. Peterman-catalog quality about them, with scenes taking place in far-flung locales that have ancient artifacts but no modern plumbing??”places far removed from the New York media maelstrom. He has a breathless romanticism about his own adventure travel, and enjoys recounting tales of his trips scuba diving among WW2 ship carcasses in Micronesia's Truk Lagoon and climbing the pyramids in Egypt.
