Emphasizing elegance and simplicity, the issue begins with a profile of the 79-year-old style icon Lee Radziwill, photographed in her Paris apartment, and moves onto another Parisian paragon of style, the designer Azzedine Alaïa, whose perfectly simple clothing is among fashion's most celebrated.
Another haredi paragon, one Shlomo Fuchs, recently called Doron Matalon, a female Israeli soldier returning to her base, a "slut" on a public bus in Jerusalem.
In the early years of the modern Games, when cycling events were held for men only, the road race was sometimes run as a time trial and produced two silver medals for British riders: the first for Freddie Grubb of Surrey in Stockholm in 1912 and another for Norwood Paragon's Frank Southall in Amsterdam in 1928.
Another popular item at Paragon is a "natural" nonpesticide repellent called Cactus Juice ($5.95), billed as "the best alternative to harmful chemical-based products".
Another recent project is the Paragon lamp for Artemide, a hinged task light that stands as straight as a skyscraper but can also curl down to illuminate something close up.
For another, it is unclear who the paragon "Mortier Mark Two" could be.
She claims that her boyfriend, Trent (Jonathan B. Wright), speaks fluent French and writes "Futurist percussive poetry," but when we finally meet this paragon he's just another jock with a silky haircut.
But on another level, she will be seen as a more nuanced paragon who has waged an existential struggle with doubt and depression.
This is the paragon being honored Monday, not merely some victim of another brand of segregation.
