The actor Tweeted on Feb. 7 that he was honored to be learning the new song with composer Claude-Michel Schönberg. When stage and screen star Jackman uses Twitter, fans listen.
"Well, he did warn us he was going to Tweet," Mackintosh told Playbill.com on Feb. 8. "He didn't hear the song until yesterday when he went through it with Claude-Michel."
Written by the stage hit's original songwriting team of Schönberg, Alain Boublil and lyricist Herbert Kretzmer, the new number is called "Suddenly," the producer revealed.
"The whole thing has been written by Alain and Claude-Michel in the same way they've worked with Herbie on the original score — I think rather religiously. They've gone back to their working methods of 30 years ago!"
When asked if there might be an additional original song played over the closing credits, Mackintosh said with a laugh, "No, no. The one thing you don't have to worry about [with] Les Miz is there are enough tunes! I mean, we're going to have great fun compiling reprises — all of the songs — that we want to put over the credits, which I'm sure will be endless."
The producer confirmed the accuracy of reports that the vocals for the film would be sung live rather than dubbed. Most of the 1986 stage musical is sung-through, so dubbing would be a chore.
Mackintosh explained, "We're doing something which has not been done before on this scale. There is a huge amount of music and a huge amount of singing in Les Misérables; you can't get the performances except through the voice. The whole thing that we have to achieve with the movie is that we tell a story through music. It's a film story we're telling. Therefore, we need to take the audience into that world.
"One of the things that impressed me about [director] Tom [Hooper] when he first showed his interest in being the director of the movie is that he both embraced the score and also wanted to create live sound, and get the excitement of the performance and the depth that you only get…by recording it live. Over the last four or five years, technology has moved so far that it is now something that is possible to try. I'm sure we're going to learn a lot on the way, but we're all up for that adventure."
Like the refreshed 25th anniversary U.K. production and current U.S. national tour of Les Miz, the film will be sung with an emphasis on of-the-moment naturalistic acting.
"Tom is going to take that approach in his own way with the movie," Mackintosh said. "The very fact that it is a movie — it has a degree of realism, which the stage doesn't require. We have to make the audience absolutely believe in the way that we're telling the story. Live performance — with live thoughts that happen to be sung — is very much part of what we need to do to [credibly tell the story]. We have a fantastic cast; many of them are drawn either from the musical theatre or can sing in a way that music is second nature to the way that they act. That's why we're all very excited about the adventure that we're entering."
The live singing is also practical. He added, "You don't have any option with a musical like this because if you don't create the performances within the music, and use the music to tell the story through the lyrics, there isn't anything else. It's not great acres of book to establish the drama, so it is through the music and lyrics. And, Herbie Kretzmer's lyrics are marvelous, and they can be spoken in many different ways."
Here's Playbill's most recent story about the casting of the "Les Miz" film.

Original recipe yields 24 servings
- Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the ziti, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink. Rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Transfer to a large roasting pan.
- Whisk together 1 jar of spaghetti sauce and the ricotta cheese in a large bowl. Add to the pasta and stir.
- Place the spinach in the bowl of a food processor; blend until finely chopped; remove and set aside. Then place the carrots in the food processor and process until finely chopped.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chopped carrots in the hot oil until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in the zucchini, portobello mushrooms, button mushrooms, and garlic; cook and stir until the zucchini is soft, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped spinach, tomatoes, and 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning; drain. Add to the ziti and mix. Sprinkle about 1/2 the bag of the Italian cheese blend over the pasta and stir through. Pour in the 3 remaining jars of spaghetti sauce; stir until the pasta and vegetables are evenly coated. Season with 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper; mix. Cover the pan with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until completely heated through, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove the foil and sprinkle the remaining cheese over the dish. Return dish to oven and bake until the cheese melts and begins to brown, about 10 minutes more.

I made this as a smaller dish and it came out great. I didn't have mushrooms, so I increased the other veggies. Used homemade spaghetti sauce. I will make this again and possibly add more seasoning.
This is so good! I split my final product (pre-baking) into two casserole dishes. This way i was able to take one to a party, and save one for another day! I just threw it in the fridge and it baked up beautifully two days later. It might even taste a little better too, because all the flavors have had a chance to mingle together. This is such an awesome recipe! Everyone asked me for my secret... haha
Bonnie T
Could you use any more dishes is this recipe?? Load a full dishwasher after dinner... That aside, maybe I'm not made for vegetarianism, because this was.only okay. Certainly not something I'll try again. It needed more cheese, and I did do this scaled down to 12 serving.

RideNow Powersports, one of the nations largest motorsports and powersports dealers, purchases Streits Motorsports in Gainesville, Florida with help of Performance Brokerage Services, a powersports dealership broker.
Irvine, California (PRWEB) June 26, 2014
Performance Brokerage Services, a Harley-Davidson, powersports and new car dealership broker, announces the sale of Streits Motorsports in Gainesville, Florida from Michael and Marion Jones to RideNow Powersports. This transaction was exclusively facilitated by Mr. George C. Chaconas of Performance Brokerage Services.
Mr. Hershell Streit, founder of Streits Motorsports in the early 1970s, began his career in 1947 where he operated out of a 520 square foot building selling bicycles. After seeing success, he relocated the business to a 20,000 square foot facility and added lawnmowers and motorcycles to his product lines. In 1989, Hershell Streit sold Streits Motorsports to Michael and Marion Jones. Hershell Streit passed away in 2013 at the age of 92.
In 1963, Michael Jones was hired as a mechanic for Hershell Streit, only to later become the General Manager of one of the operations. When Michael purchased Streits Motorsports, Honda motorcycles was the only brand represented. Michael immediately expanded his offerings to include Yamaha and Kawasaki brands, and during 1999, he also introduced the Suzuki and Triumph motorcycles to the brands offered.
Today, the store boasts 17,250 square feet, located at 4820 Northwest 13th Street in Gainesville, Florida, and comprises of 3 acres along the highway. Ready to retire from the business, Michael and Marion Jones contacted George C. Chaconas, the head of Performance Brokerage Services National Harley-Davidson and Powersports Division, to help them sell their motorsports dealership. Following the successful sale of his dealership, Michael Jones commented, George helped me and my family to prepare for the next phase of life and retire from the business. George Chaconas and Performance Brokerage Services are true professionals. They get the job done!
Owning two dealerships in Ocala, Florida and looking to expand their footprint in the Southeast, RideNow Powersports viewed Streits Motorsports as an ideal strategic acquisition. The CEO of RideNow Powersports, Mark Tkach, stated After hearing rumors that the multi-line powersports dealership could be for sale, I contacted George Chaconas to investigate it. George made contact with the dealer and provided us the opportunity to make an offer on the dealership. With headquarters located in Tempe, Arizona and 23 locations nationwide, RideNow Powersports is one of the nations largest motorsports and powersports dealers. After the purchase of Streits Motorsports and pleased with the services provided by George Chaconas, Mark Tkach advocated If you are in the market to buy or sell a Harley-Davidson or powersports dealership, I highly recommend George Chaconas and Performance Brokerage Services.
George C. Chaconas heads the National Harley-Davidson and Powersports Division at Performance Brokerage Services and was the representative for this transaction. Following the sale, George said It is always a pleasure to work with RideNow Powersports and be a part of their growth and expansion plans. It was also personally rewarding to have assisted Mike and Marion Jones with their desires, and I wish them an enjoyable retirement.

Fire deaths throughout Maryland in 2012 dropped nearly a quarter from the previous year to a new record low, state officials said Thursday.
According to preliminary data announced by the state fire marshal's office, 52 people died in 2012 of "injuries related to hostile fires." That total is 22 percent down from the 67 fire-related deaths recorded in 2011, and 13 percent down from the 60 deaths reported in 2006 and again in 2008, which were then record lows.
In a release, State Fire Marshal William E. Barnard attributed the drop in deaths to safety precautions, including working smoke alarms, home fire escape plans, residential fire sprinklers and "outreach programs that emphasize personal responsibility for surviving a home fire."
"I applaud the efforts of all who take on the role of informing Marylanders of the value of fire and injury prevention," Barnard stated.
Officials cautioned, however, that the numbers do not include people still receiving treatment for injuries in 2012 fires.
Fire deaths have been declining for years. The average number of fire deaths per year over the last 20 years is 77, but the average in the last five years is 65, officials stated.
The deadliest year for fire deaths in the last 30 years was 1988, when 129 people died of fire-related causes. Maryland has already recorded five fire deaths in 2013, according to the release.
Recent state legislation requiring only fire-safe cigarettes be sold, and requiring sprinklers be installed in most new homes may further contributed to the decline in deaths, officials stated.
Here are some fire prevention tips offered in the release from the state fire marshal's office:
- Working smoke alarms should be located on every level of the home, in each sleeping area and in each sleeping room.
- Test smoke alarms monthly.
- Develop a home escape plan with a safe meeting place outside and practice the plan with all family members at least twice a year.
- If having a new home built, insist that fire sprinklers be installed if they are not required.

For instant updates, follow Elk Grove Patch on Facebook and Twitter.
The sky was blue and the streets quiet on Rhone River Drive Tuesday afternoon, but it was hard to miss evidence of what happened the night before.
A tornado with winds between 90 and 100 miles per hour touched down in southeast Elk Grove around 4:45 p.m. Monday, according to the National Weather Service. The agency rated it an EF1 tornado, the second-weakest on a zero-to-five scale.
"It was really scary," Rhone River Drive resident Lannelle Ware said. "The wind sounded like it was in the house."
A tree in Ware's front yard was sheared off and dragged down the street by the wind, she said.
"I'm a native San Franciscan–a Californian–I've never seen that," Ware said. "I'm not from the midwest or back east."
Hers was one of about 50 homes that saw some kind of damage, according to the Cosumnes Fire Department. Some had tiles ripped off the roof, fences were toppled and debris was strewn throughout yards.
Perhaps most dramatically, a commercial building on Waterman Road had a 20-foot-by-50-foot hole ripped in its roof.
The city of Elk Grove and the Elk Grove Police Department warned residents to be wary of fradulent or unlicensed contractors looking to take advantage of those with damage from the storm. City staff placed dumpsters around the damaged neighborhoods to ease cleanup efforts.
"As a reminder to homeowners with swimming pools who had their fences blown down, it is the homeowner's responsibility to secure their property if there is an imminent danger to the public," the city said in a press release. "The City of Elk Grove's Code Enforcement Department can work with property owners to assist with fence repair. The homeowner would be responsible for the cost associated with the repair."
Jim Vang, another Rhone River Drive resident, said he got home a couple hours after the tornado's mile-long trip through Elk Grove.
"The whole neighborhood was out here," Vang said. "Everybody was outside. I guess everybody was just overwhelmed."
Bell Singh, a Mainline Drive resident whose fence was knocked down, said he was thankful the damage was only cosmetic.
"Thank God nothing happened to nobody," he said.

Training in Carbon Markets and Accounting
NYIT's Department of Extended Education is pleased to announce a collaboration with the Greenhouse Gas Management Institute whose mission is to train and support a global society of greenhouse gas ("GHG") professionals in the fields of GHG measurement, accounting, auditing and management. This online program includes two courses, Basics of Organizational GHG Accounting and Basics of Project-Level GHG Accounting. For more information please visit http://ghginstitute.org/nyit/ .
All online classes are self-paced and classes are accessible 24 hours/day. Students can log into a course at any given time. Class discussions take place within forums and you will receive e-mail notifications when new material is posted. It typically takes a student 16-20 hours to complete a course. This is equivalent to a traditional 3 to 4 day intensive training wiorkshop. You may find, based upon your background and interest that it takes you more or less time than we estimate.
The GHG Management Institute utilizes an online e-learning format to keep costs down and enable us to have a global reach as large as the internet itself. E-learning allows you to take a course without traveling and as your personal schedule permits. Online courses have a proven track record in public and private institutions. The U.S. Department of Education has compiled a report titled Evaluation of Evidence-Based Practices in Online Learning, and the findings indicated that e-learning can actually out perform typical classroom learning. Click http://ghginstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Dept.ofEducationReport.pdf to view their report. And as an added bonus, you avoid emissions from traveling to class.
201 Basics of Organizational GHG Accounting
Many organizations are starting to think about how to manage their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for a number of reasons: to minimize their impact on the planet, to prepare for regulation and address evolving disclosure requirements, to increase energy efficiency and/or to build their profile as an environmental leader.
Building an inventory of your sources and emissions (e.g., carbon footprint) is an essential first step to assessing risks, reducing emissions and tracking your performance.
This training course will cover the basics of GHG accounting for organizations. The course materials are based on the WRI/WBCSD GHG Protocol Corporate Standard, while referring to the ISO 14064: Part 1 international standard for GHG inventories. A personal ISO 14064: Part 1 license is issued to each learner as part of this course.
Learners can also choose to take an optional section that covers reporting to The Climate Registry and provides practical experience using The Registry's General Reporting Protocol.
The material taught in this course serves as the basis for almost all of the entity-level GHG reporting programs in the world, such as:
Carbon Disclosure Project
- U.S. DOE/EIA 1605(b) program
- The Climate Registry
- Mexico GHG Program
- Philippine GHG Accounting & Reporting Program
The course includes quizzes and exercises that will help you apply key lessons and principles.
A Certificate of Proficiency is availableand requires the passing of an exam after completion of the course.
Learners who complete The Climate Registry course module can opt to take The Climate Registry exam and receive a Certificate of Proficiency in both the BAsics of organizational GHG Accounting and Reporting to The Climate Registry.
Key Concepts
- GHG accounting principles
- Defining applications for GHG inventories
- Design and development of GHG inventories
- Establishing GHG boundaries for an organization
- Identifying emission sources
- Tracking emissions over time, recalculations and establishing a base year
- Setting GHG reduction targets
- Inventory quality management
- Preparing a GHG inventory report
- Preparing for verification
- Optional- Reporting emissions according to The Climate Registry's General Reporting Protocol
Course Lessons
- Introduction and Overview
- Business Applications
- Organizational Boundaries
- Operational Boundaries
- Tracking, Calculating, Reporting and Managing
- Data Collection and Calculation
- Additional Technical Issues
- Inventory Quality Management
- Elements of GHG Inventory Reports
- Next Steps
- Optional- Reporting to The Climate Registry
Who should attend: Anyone with an interest in carbon management, in particular GHG inventory managers, corporate environmental and sustainability managers, investors and auditors. For example, a client says he wants his company to be "carbon neutral" and you are asked to help them understand their carbon footprint. this course will enable you to intelligently address the issues necessary to assess this organization's GHG emissions.
Approximate number of working hours to complete: 16 to 20 or with The Climate Registry's module 20 to 24
Availability: Within 3-4 business days following enrollmetn payment received.
202 Basics of Project-Level GHG Accounting
Many companies and other organizations are taking action to manage their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, a cause of climate change. Projects can reduce or avoid GHG emissions that cause climate change. These actions can reduce the overall emissions of a company or create tradable credits to offset emissions in order to become carbon neutral.
Although no universally accepted GHG project accounting standard yet exists, many GHG programs have similar accounting requirements. The Greenhouse Gas Management Insitute does not promote any particular standards or protocols, instead providing training on the requirements of the most widely accepted GHG standards at present.
This training course will cover the basics of GHG accounting for projects. The course materail build upon ISo 14064: Part 2 GHG Standard for Projects and the WRI/WBCSD GHG Protocol for Projects. A personal ISO 14064: Part 2 license is issued to each learner as part of this course.
The material taught in this course serves as the basis for many GHG offset crediting programs, such as
- Verified Carbon Standard
- UN Clean Development Mechanism
- Alberta Offset System
This course includes quizzes and exercises to help you learn to apply key lessons.
A Certificate of Proficiency is available and requires the passing of an exam after completion of the course.
Key Concepts covered include:
- GHG accounting principles

The Daily Iowegian
---- — CENTERVILLE — During last year's renovations in the Appanoose County Historical and Coal Mining Museum, the staff discovered a treasure they weren't aware they possessed – a set of beautiful, beveled, leaded glass windows. Technically, they would be referred to as sidelights – long, narrow windows that flank each side of a front entryway.
The windows were stored on top of a dust-covered, makeshift bookcase, which had been there for many years. It actually dated back to the building's post office years. It was behind the wall where people would slide their letters in the slot. This case was the bin that they dropped into. Once the Historical Society acquired the building, the bins were used for storing a large set of Civil War roster books.
When the renovations were in full swing, the bins were removed to make room for filing cabinets, and the windows were discovered. They were stored on two long two-by-fours covered with a piece of cardboard to keep the windows supported. Volunteers gingerly pulled them down and placed them onto one of the long display cases to look them over. It was first thought they were stained glass, but they were so dirty, it was hard to tell. After a bit of clean up, it was evident that the windows were beveled, clear glass, with leading that was breaking down. Any attempt to stand them upright would have resulted in disaster. The significance of the windows wasn't known wither.
Curator Lisa Eddy made a call to long-time Historical Society board member Leon Kauzlarich to find out more about them. He is responsible for much of the original set up of the Post Office museum and his volunteer efforts in creating the coal mining museum are still apparent today. Many of the exhibits were handmade by him and are viewed by many as folk art pieces now. The life-size mine pony is only one example of his artistic talent. He has been honored with a Governor's Award for Volunteerism.
Kauzlarich explained that the windows were removed from a bank in Mystic, although he wasn't sure which one it would be. Mystic had two banks during its boom years, when coal mining was growing the town by leaps and bounds. Mystic ended up almost as large as Corydon at one time. The two banks were the Bradley Bank of Mystic and the Mystic Industrial Savings Bank.
While researching the history of the banks, Eddy used the book "History of Mystic" that was compiled in 1987 by the Mystic Centennial Committee. There are photographs of each of the banks, the outside of the Bradley Bank and the interior of the Industrial Savings Bank. Sadly, the photocopy quality of the pictures makes it difficult to determine which bank would have boasted these lovely windows. If the original photos could be scanned, the answer might be revealed. The society is currently looking for any information about who may have the original photos.
Regardless of which bank owned the windows, they represent a time in Mystic that was busy and prosperous, when Mystic had doctors, dentists, pharmacies, clothing stores, cafes, hardware, lumber yards, grocery stores, a theater, a jewelry store, hotels, a skating rink, a newspaper and the Dreamland Ballroom where Lawrence Welk once played. The museum is anxious to tell Mystic's story, beyond the coal mines, and these windows will help illustrate it.
Historical Society Board member Debbie Robinson is leading the effort to restore the windows. After the renovations of 2012, spending by the Historical Society has slowed down and the board agreed to restore the windows, but it must be done by fund raising and grants to cover the restoration costs. Just the cost of restoring the glass will be $3,400, and that doesn't include framing and installation of the windows in an exhibit.
There are several ideas to raise funds for the project. The first was a raffle of an art piece that Robinson and fellow board member, Dana Moritz, created which raised more than $200. A rummage sale is planned for Saturday, May 4, at the museum. The parking lot will be saved for parking, but the tables will wrap around the building on the south, east and north sides. No artifacts from the museum will be in the sale. Only items donated to the society will be sold.
If anyone has items they would like to donate to the rummage sale, bring them by the museum from now until May 3, when there will be storage room for the items.

[JURIST] Texas Governor Rick Perry [official website] said Thursday that Texas will go forward with the August 5 execution of a Mexican national despite an International Court of Justice (ICJ) [official website] order staying the execution [order and press release, PDF]. The ICJ ordered Wednesday that a mandated review be conducted to determine whether five Mexican nationals on death row in Texas were inappropriately denied the chance to speak with Mexican counselor officers in violation of the 1963 Vienna Convention on Consular Relations [PDF text]. The court held:
The United States shall take all measures necessary to ensure that Jose Ernesto Medellin Rojas, Cesar Roberto Fierro Reyna, Ruben Ramirez Cardenas, Humberto Leal Garcia, and Roberto Moreno Ramos are not executed pending judgment on the Request for interpretation submitted by the United Mexican States, unless and until these five Mexican nationals receive review and reconsideration consistent with paragraphs 138 to 141 of the Court's Judgment delivered on 31 March 2004 in the case concerning Avena and Other Mexican Nationals (Mexico v. United States of America).
Texas has made clear that unless restrained, it will go forward with the execution without providing Mr. Medellin the mandated review and reconsideration and that such action by the Texas courts will thereby irreparably breach the United States obligations under the Avena judgment.
The world court [ICJ] has no standing in Texas and Texas is not bound by a ruling or edict from a foreign court. It is easy to get caught up in discussions of international law and justice and treaties. It's very important to remember that these individuals are on death row for killing our citizens.

Opportunity left on base
Jun 3, 2014
By Robert Husseman
Of the News-Register
DAYTON -- Hits were hard to come by.
The No. 2 Dayton softball team managed six of them off Rainier pitchers Shelby Saylors and Sarah Probasco. The No. 3 Columbians had trouble with Pirates ace Sierra Ray, managing seven hits.
Rainier centerfielder Jessica Gibson belted an RBI single off Ray in the third inning, and that would be all the Columbians would need in a 1-0 victory over the Pirates in Tuesday's Class 3A state semifinal softball game at Jim Connelly Field.
Ray had a double for Dayton, and Rachael Fluke, Cassi Hill, Kylee Hill, Michaela Shouldis and Sydney Van Noy each had singles. The Pirates left 13 men on base during the game to Rainier's four.
The Columbians (23-4) will play for the Class 3A state championship Friday at the Oregon State University softball complex in Corvallis.
Dayton finishes its season with a 21-4 record. The Pirates went undefeated (10-0) to win the Class 3A West Valley League.

The Magazine, sub-compact publishing, and going digitally native
If Apple had created an iNewsstand store, like the iBookstore, App Store, and iTunes Store, we'd likely have gotten a more consistent, more controlled experience, rather than the mixed bag of hurt that are PNG-prints of traditional magazines by traditional entities, unwilling and unable to embrace digitally native formats. But we might not have gotten some of the truly creative, truly inspired apps that have come to Newsstand. Craig Mod takes a look at the quiet revolution that's going on in digitally native publishing right now.
Our current tools are a bit kludgey, a bit clunky, a bit too tied to the past. The Magazine is a great first example of a subcompact publication, utilizing Newsstand — an existing under-leveraged tool — to indigenously and ingenuously deliver content.
I'd be shocked if there weren't a dozen other publishers prepping to launch similar magazines. Or, even better: someone building a system by which anyone could launch a Newsstand app like The Magazine — for minimal cost with minimal complexity.
Mod argues that when you strip everything away, when you get down to only the most essential of parts, everything from the sub-compact car that revolutionized the auto industry, to the sub-compact publication which may well revolutionize the periodical industry, becomes possible for those brave and bold enough to see seize it.
That it took a developer like Marco Arment to make The Magazine, with the perfect confluence of development skills, reading app experience (Instapaper), and connections to authors who could feed his first few issues, shouldn't be underestimated. I like that The Magazine was hard. If it hadn't been, it might not have been good.
I also like that traditional publishers like The New York Times are breaking with legacy media preconceptions to do something authentic with their Newsstand app.
If I had my druthers, there'd still be an iNewsstand store proper, where Apple controls the experience, and users enjoy the consistency of the rest of iTunes. But there'd also be Newsstand-style functionality -- background downloads, easy subscription processing and management -- would be available to all apps, unconstrained by the conventions of the periodical format.
Then the potential for both digital magazines, and things well beyond magazines, would really be unlocked.
Now go read Mod's entire essay, it's a fascinating look at a medium truly in need of disruption.

Newsstand is a complete mess, where different publishers use different systems with different ways to subscribe and unsubscribe, you never know what to expect. I actually gave up my National Geographic subscription on Newsstand to subscribe on the Kindle, a far better experience overall. The system Conde Nast uses for Wired Magazine forces you to watch the loooong download or it stops.
Right now the interactivity that is provided by the Newsstand environment is distracting and confusing, every time you open a magazine you don't know what to expect, if the scroll is vertical or horizontal, or if you have to touch the images to open legends or to enlarge, or if there is more content hidden somewhere you did not notice. It takes the focus out of the information and into the interactivity, and that for me is a major fail.
I find myself having a much better experience using the vanilla environment that the Kindle iPad app provides, where you can zoom on pages at will, and scroll magazines horizontally, than using the apps inside Newsstand.
I personally disagree that "The Magazine" is as good as this blog post is implying. I tried it for a while and deleted it. It's boring and I hope all digital magazines do not become like it! I personally like the experience found in magazines like Pop Photo, Men's Health, or Total Film. If I want to read an essay totally devoid of interesting photos I'll pick up a school textbook. Digital media, at least the kind you pay for, is as much about entertainment as it is the message it is trying to deliver.
I subscribed to The Magazine, and although it's good, it's not great. Really appreciate the lack of ads, but the articles are hit-and-miss for me. All well-written but sometimes I just don't feel like reading about wet shaving or the perfect cup of tea.
Re: "...where Apple controls the experience, and users enjoy the consistency of the rest of iTunes."
I'd really prefer a standardized way of subscribing. Tired of constantly being up-sold through in-app purchases within the publications.
Also, I'd prefer a standardized navigation scheme within all publications. It sometimes feels like "Designers Gone Wild" with all manner of swipes, taps, and oddball document designs. Like over-designed web pages.

Learn About the Life of Abraham Lincoln
A number of new books offer new perspectives to celebrate his bicentennial birthday.
Happy birthday, Abe! In honor of the upcoming bicentennial of our 16th president on February 12, the U.S. Mint is redesigning the Lincoln penny; the postal service is issuing four new commemorative stamps; and Lincoln experts everywhere are bursting into print, with 40-something recent or forthcoming volumes proving that there is always something more, and even something new, to be written about this iconic American.
Fascination with the lanky statesman stems as much from the complexities of his character as from the trajectory of his life, says noted Civil War historian James M. McPherson. The limited evidence about aspects of his private life and thought "opens up all sorts of possibilities for biographers, historians, and psychologists to probe his inner essence," McPherson says. And because every era asks different questions, there will always be new perspectives and new ways of understanding Lincoln's impact.
Perhaps that's truer than ever this coming year, which will see the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama, a devout Lincoln fan who, coincidentally, was recently photographed carrying a copy of Fred Kaplan's just published tome, Lincoln: The Biography of a Writer.
Herewith, a sampling of new and notable Lincoln books:
The Portable Abraham Lincoln, edited by Andrew Delbanco ($18): As selected and edited by Columbia University professor Delbanco, this compendium of Lincoln's speeches (including those at Gettysburg and the first and second inaugural addresses), debates (as in Lincoln-Douglas), and letters reminds us that Lincoln was also one of the nation's most distinctive writers and eloquent rhetoricians. Images of many of these original documents can be found in a companion volume to a forthcoming Library of Congress exhibition, In Lincoln's Hand: His Original Manuscripts (Bantam, $35).
How Lincoln developed that genius for language is the subject of Kaplan's Biography of a Writer ($28). Tracing the sources of Lincoln's style as both writer and thinker from his earliest reading primers to his lifelong passion for Shakespeare and the Bible, Kaplan shows that despite sketchy schooling and a severely limited number of texts available on the hardscrabble frontier, Lincoln worked with dogged eagerness to absorb (and often memorize) everything that came his way. For a complete view of Lincoln's life, at 2,000 pages, the two-volume Abraham Lincoln: A Life by Michael Burlingame ($125) might be as encyclopedic as it is thorough. No less impressive an achievement is Ronald C. White Jr.'s comprehensive one-volume A. Lincoln: A Biography, which weighs in at a mere 750 pages.
Two other books provide fresh insights on very specific aspects of Lincoln's presidency. In Tried by War: Abraham Lincoln as Commander in Chief, McPherson views Lincoln's presidency through the prism and the crucible of his military leadership. Though unschooled in war tactics, Lincoln ultimately proved a masterful strategist whose constancy preserved the Union. (Tip: For those seeking a quick refresher course on Lincoln's life, look for McPherson's Abraham Lincoln, just published by Oxford University Press as part of its aptly named "Brief Biography" series.)
In Lincoln President-Elect: Abraham Lincoln and the Great Secession Winter 1860 - 1861, Lincoln scholar Harold Holzer (who is also cochairman of the Lincoln Bicentennial Committee) looks at the interim period between Lincoln's election and his inauguration. Holzer also has edited The Lincoln Anthology: Great Writers on His Life and Legacy From 1860 to Now (Library of America, $40), a wide-ranging collection that includes the views of everyone from Nathaniel Hawthorne to Leo Tolstoy to—yes—President-elect Barack Obama.

GASTONIA, N.C. -- Gaston County commissioners on Thursday approved a property tax increase of 3.5 cents, then accepted the resignation of County Manager Jan Winters who had recommended a 5.4 cent hike.
Winters said he'd been forced to resign. Assistant county manager Phil Ponder was appointed interim manager.
In a 5-2 vote, the board passed the county's first tax hike in 12 years, bringing the rate from 83.5 cents per $100 valuation to 87 cents per $100 valuation.
Winters had recommended a 5.4 cent tax increase to pay off college and school bonds. Without the increase, he said cutbacks in services and layoffs would be necessary.
First-term Commissioner Jason Williams, who voted to accept Winters' resignation, said that as a fiscal conservative, "the last thing I expected was to be forced to raise taxes my first budget."
He said the county needed to find a manager who was a leader, a businessman and innovative.
Commissioner Joe Carpenter called Winters "one of the best county managers we've had."
Winters, who came to Gaston 12 years ago, thanked the board "for giving me the opportunity to serve the community."
Walking to his car, Winters said he had no idea what was coming at Thursday night's commissioners meeting.
"It happens," he said of the decision.

The Journal Sentinel's team of Packers beat writers provide the latest news, notes and analysis
Packers top Browns, but lose Finley to injury
Green Bay — Again, the Packers won. But again, it likely came at a steep price.
For about 10 minutes, Lambeau Field was as quiet as it has been in years.
After absorbing a hit from Cleveland's Tashaun Gipson — surrounded by trainers and players — tight end Jermichael Finley laid motionless on the turf. Another starter down. This time, Finley to a neck injury.
The team later announced that Finley had movement in all his extremities. But the injury clouded another Packers win. Green Bay improved to 4-2 with a 31-13 victory over the Browns.
Without Randall Cobb and James Jones, quarterback Aaron Rodgers finished 25 of 36 for 260 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. Eddie Lacy was a steady presence again with 108 total yards (82 rushing, 26 receiving) and a touchdown. The defense, meanwhile, was able to overcome its injuries at linebacker.
But it appears that Mike McCarthy will need to turn to that "Keep Calm and Carry On" message again.
We'll have updates on Finley when they come.
Player of the Game: Hard to believe Jarrett Boykin wasn't good enough to survive the Jacksonville Jaguars' rookie camp last year. The Packers scooped him up and he's been developing behind the scenes ever since. On Sunday -- with several receivers down -- the 2012 undrafted pick-up caught eight passes for 103 yards and a touchdown. Early on, Green Bay tried to get him going on receiver screens and short, horizontal routes. As the game progressed, they let him operate downfield. The knockout punch came with 3 minutes, 52 seconds to go. Rodgers looked left, threw right to Boykin who barreled over Buster Skrine over the goal line.
Turning point: Following Finley's injury, Rodgers hit Boykin for 39 yards down to Cleveland's 1-yard line. With trips right, Jordy Nelson left, he connected with Nelson on a quick slant and the Packers extended it's lead to 24-6.
Big number: 3.5 — yards per pass attempt for Brandon Weeden. Green Bay may have injury problems, but the Browns have much, much bigger problems under center.
What went right: The Packers' offense started fast. Finley spun off Craig Robertson and then bowled through Gipson and Skrine for a 10-yard touchdown. Then on Green Bay's second drive, Eddie Lacy got rolling with 34 rushing yards and a touchdown. Just like that, the Packers built a 14-0 advantage that'd hold up. Defensively, the Packers — missing Clay Matthews, Nick Perry and Brad Jones — did enough to fluster Weeden and contain Cleveland's hurting skill-position players. Again, they shut down a running game. Willis McGahee mustered only 39 rushing yards, as A.J. Hawk and Jamari Lattimore combined for 24 total tackles.
Cornerback Sam Shields shut down Josh Gordon, who was averaging 100-plus yards per game heading into Sunday. Cleveland's top receiver had two catches for 21 yards. Shields' pass break-up in the end zone prevented a touchdown.
What went wrong: Despite the final score, Green Bay did let an inferior team hang around. After the two quick scores, the Packers' offense began to sleepwalk for a stretch. A punt-field goal-missed field goal-punt sequence allowed Cleveland to stay within striking range. The Browns managed five hits on Rodgers, getting to Don Barclay particularly at right tackle. A roughing the punter and trick play on fourth down early extended Browns drives. But overall, the rebuilding Browns simply didn't have enough ammo to keep up.

I know injuries haven't helped, but GB needs a change at special teams. Their inept play is all due to Cobb being unavailable.Hide replies
with as many injuries as they have, the special teams will suffer. The same would be true for any team.
I don't think Cobb plays on coverage teams.
Coverage teams stinkin' it up. I think Hyde is doing an good job returning punts. Keep him there and Cobb healthy when he comes back.
Injuries didn't help our Special Teams today but let's be honest. Crosby and Masthay are adequate but our return and coverage units are anything but "special."
Actually Micah Hyde has been great on returns.
Meant isn't. My apologies.
I watched the game and Solomon Wicots was doing the commentary. That guy is horrible. Finley was lying on the ground with what appeared to be a very serious injury and this jerk Wilcots kept running his mouth defending the DB. It was not the time to be doing that. Wilcots showed absolutey no concern for Finley. I was screaming at the tv for Wilcots to shut up. What a complete idiot that guy is. Lt's hope Finley is okay. It was obviously his neck or back they were worried about. I hope Wilcots never does a Packer game again. He is worse than Joe Theisman -- and that's saying something.Hide replies
Couldn't agree more. I kept thinking the producer was going to turn off his mike. A player lying on the field ... terrible. I'm sure the Browns fans would agree.
Besides, his whole point - that Finley had made a football move - was moot. He was called for unnecessary roughness. That's exactly what it was; Finley was down and no matter what part of the body the DB used, it was a blow to the head of a defenseless player. He kept saying 'what is he supposed to do'; he's supposed to not try and kill the opposing player when he's down.
I agree on Wilcots needing to shut up, but I disagree on the call. The DB clearly led with his shoulder, and after Finley lowered his head/shoulders there wasn't much room left to make contact. Watch the Bears game, Merriweather was up to his usual bag of tricks. Those were penalties. I just don't see what else the defender can do in the Finley situation. I will give the refs the benefit of the doubt and assume it looked more egregious at full speed from their vantage point. Slow motion clearly showed he made impact with his shoulder first though.
Agreed. No class.
And he's an idiot. On the Jordy TD, Jordy has his man beat to the inside and to the back shoulder. He had him beat either way. But that was contrary to Wilcot's game-long tribute to #23. All the while, Sam Shields truly played shut-down defense, in contrast to what #23 was doing.
The trouble is with many of these ex jock announcers is that they played before they discovered concussions can cause permanent brain damage.
They beat a team with a very good defense 31-13. Special teams didn't play well, but that is expected with all the injuries. Overall a solid day, the only negative being the injury to Finley.Hide replies
Agreed Dave on the special teams. I was wondering if 1) there were new people on special teams causing the cover problems or 2) were people getting fatigued from playing regular snaps and special tams duty, 3) combination of those two things. Being short on D and offense changes things up for special teams.
And prayers for Jmike. He was needed today and stepped up.
Penalties also killed us and kept the Browns in it, some of course I question but they are what they are.
I knew there would be about 30 penalties called when I seen Triplette's crew was working....I don't know if they keep stats, but his crew has to lead the league in penalty calls every year
Special teams continue to be a jail break year after year under Slocum
Yeah, they sure called a tight game. A few questionable calls against both teams.
Digger, maybe that's because they are pulling guys off the street year after year to fill in for all the injured players. Slocum probably hasn't had the same guys two games in a row for 3 out of the last 4 years.
TD has a great point.
Sp teams have been good the past two yrs. They weren't a priority for TT until 2011. He started addressing the issues after the Bowl win.
This yr, injuries are playing a part in the struggles. Also, Masthay didn't perform at his best today.
All is right with the world. The Packers are in first in the Norris.
Finley haters ?
..... Nah didn't think so
A ugly win is much better than an ugly defeat. The packers are 4-2, lead the NFC North 1/2 game ahead of both Chicago and Detroit. I pronounce the glass half full.Hide replies
I find great beauty in an ugly win.
It is great to find beauty in ugliness, it makes shaving in the morning easier.
You know we're a spoiled fan-base when we declare a 31-13 victory (by our rag-tag team of rookies and backups) an "ugly" win. 31-13! I agree, old66, the glass is at least half full.
I agree nosnhoj4. Rather than ugly, I'd describe today's game as workmanlike. There was never a point that I thought Cleveland had any chance of winning the game.
Is NBC thrilled to have the Packers at the Vikings next week?Hide replies
More thrilled then the NFL network is to have Bucs and Panthers on Thursday.
Boy, BrewBear, that's a good point.
they should be...the Pack always draws big ratings
Don't forget ESPN with the Giants and Vikings tomorrow night. Two teams without a win in the United States.
It is hard to find who to root against on Monday. However some of the most entertaining and memorable Monday night games have bee with cellar dwellers. It could be interesting. 0-0 after three OTs.
I can think of very few situations where I have trouble rooting against the Vikings. So, for a few hours the Giants will be my 2nd favorite team. Replacing the Skins and the Bengals.
Good line Homer (no wins in the United States). Consider it stolen! I'll have to make calls to my Minnesota friends tomorrow and work it into the conversation.
Give 'em hell SS. You can't steal it if I give it to you.
It does concern me that they didn't recover back to back onsides kicks. Yikes.Hide replies
Rain coming down, wet field, and 39 degrees w/ wind chill. Let's give them a pass on this game.
I am not sure they deserve a pass. What happens if they are in the same situation in December or January and there is snow on the ground? Are you going to give them a pass then too?
Aside from punt returns, special teams was pretty bad most of the night. I am usually on here defending them against the trolls, but I am not sure there is much to defend tonight.
I wanna curse the dreaded and dreadlocked football god, Injury. But lets be grateful, for, E-Rod is still standing tall.
Finger crossed J-Mike is a-ok. Please, Injury, not the dreaded IR.
Bones, sinking like stones; all that we fought for...
Don't panic! We live in a beautiful world!Hide replies
Drugs kill, waste minds.
E-Rod?, scr#w you, learn his name,
