    » With the recent passing of King Bhumibol Adulyadej, various printing houses have toiled to produce beautiful articles, keepsakes and tributes to the revered monarch. During the past two months, newspapers featured extensive coverage, as well as historical pictures of the late king, some of which were rare and hard to find.

    » Magic. In an era of smartphones that can perform once-impossible tasks, the word doesn't quite evoke the same allure and mystique that it once did.

In July this year, 13-year-old Thirawat Kongnugul glided past young wizards from all over the world to bag second place in the International Brotherhood of Magic's yearly Stage Contest in Arizona _ proof that Thai magicians still have a few tricks up their collective sleeve (see accompanying story).
