An ancestor story

đẹp khoe, xấu che, or “show the good, hide the bad” - from the inaugural issue of the Trans Asia Photography Review.

The first thing that struck me when I first viewed the family portrait was, why is it scratched like that? The article reveals why, and more.

Is there a mirror available?

Apparently the entire site was bad, because it's certainly hidden.

I sent them an email and it's back up now. How do I make a mirror (in case it goes down again)?

It seems to be down again. Too bad that Michigan is having this trouble; Hampshire has a tremendous photography program (Ken Burns and Jimmy Rudnick and many others also came from there) so I look forward to seeing this new magazine.

Affixing ".nyud.net" to the end of the domain name is a quick way to generate a Coral cached copy of a site.

Was anyone else expecting transsexuals?

Content may be back, but they are not serving images.

I read it in its entirety, with images, and it was well worth it. A great story well told. Thanks unliteral!

No, but I was expecting the Spanish Inquisition. So where TF is it?

It should be okay now. I had a reply from support at the University of Michigan:

"I think it was just inconvenient timing. One of our servers went down and so service got spotty for some users, and others were untouched. Took us a while to diagnose because we had some "works for me!" issues and problem tickets were prematurely closed."
