NEW YORK - THE world knows a lot more about Israeli-born Bar Refaeli today than it did yesterday, including where her tiny tan line falls.

In the meantime there is another miracle .. the Neanderthaler genome! Isn't this wonderful? A BOOK with the records of who we were 300,000 years ago is at least as wonderful as the Dead Sea Scrolls. One thing worries me? Few apes are "white" and it is likely that our common ancestors were black. Howsit that the artists here chose to make the Neanderthal guy look like a Russian peasant?

Oh well back to Israel's first babe ....
