For this year’s Great Performances portfolio, TIME asked fashion photographer Paola Kudacki to take portraits of 11 actors, all of whom have been recognized for their portrayals of either real people or historical characters in some of 2012’s best films. See the photos on LightBox here.
This week’s cover story is all about drones strikes at home in the U.S., but it looks like America has another silent killer on our hands – cats. According to a study in Nature Communications, cats kill up to 20 billion mammals annually, and some reachers say cats have been responsible for the extinction of 33 species globally. The study just came out this week, but TIME has been on the scene since 1981, when we devoted an entire cover story to our dangerous domestic predator. Just look at that face — doesn’t it scream “killer”?
The latest issue of TIME, featuring cover story, ‘Rise of the Drones,’ will hit newsstands Friday. Read the story here.

Instagram is revolutionizing the way that we communicate through images. It’s a vessel for a picture to reach a potentially massive audience in an instant. Once the picture is uploaded and reaches the followers of the specific feed; from there, it can reach thousands and perhaps millions of others through other social media.
One of the most unique aspects about Instagram is that it’s direct from the field— from photographer to viewer. By handing over TIME’s Instagram feed to a photographer covering a breaking news story—whether it’s Ed Kashi on Hurricane Sandy or Brooks Kraft on Obama’s election trail—we are giving the photographer the opportunity to file direct from the field to our viewers. No editor involved. That’s revolutionary.
