I heartily second Dennis' recommendation of New Scientist.  The  
writing is brilliant, lucid, and even funny and it somehow manages to  
have over a dozen substantive articles every week with nearly no  
advertising (and what advertising there is is of the benign British  
variety).  You also get access to a superb web site of current science  
news and a complete archive.  They have been publishing for just over  
50 years.  I have been taking New Scientist for about five years, and  
one caveat is that they *do* build up into piles, as badly as New  
Yorker magazines.  I have partially read issues in stacks all over the  
house.  Here is a great clip of Richard Dawkins talking about New  
Scientist after being rebuked by Neal Tyson for being too barbed in  
his rhetoric.  Dawkins starts at about 2 minutes and I would suggest  
not listening at work.
