What Science/Bioinformatics Magazines Do You Read?

Eric asks: "I am a software developer getting acclimated to the bioinformatics space by reading through introductory texts like 'Genome : The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters' by Matt Ridley, 'Genomes' by T.A. Brown, and bio journals. I find these sources to be exceptionally interesting but frequently the information is too detailed or too light for my purposes. I think the ideal information would come from a monthly magazine or online forum (like Slashdot) that is geared towards bright non-biologist computery folk (think Dr. Dobbs with an emphasis on computational biology -- light but definitely not fluff). I am particularly interested in new discoveries, research techniques, and experiments in this space. I am also budget constrained, and only have $100 a year set aside to access this kind of material. Does something like this exist, if so which ones do you recommend?" I think this question serves as a fine follow-up to our last question on Bioinformatics, may I suggest yet another starting point for those interested in this subject?

Medical library

$100/year doesn't go too far. If you have a medical school nearby, there's a good chance you can use it for free. Probably not to check out journals, but browsing is free. Even if they don't allow the general public in, there is often a way to buy access. I mean legitimately, not by handing the guard a $10 bill. Even when I was in Princeton, my company had a sort of subscription with Princeton University to use the library.
