EN World - Morrus' D&D / d20 News & Reviews Site - Dragon - Is Dragon Magazine even *Relevant* anymore? One article in particular I'm thinking about is one from a magazine (issue #81, IIRC) with a description of the gems that are typically found in treasure piles, and some smattering of possible uses. If 80% of your magazine is built solely around providing new rules for stuff people need only sparingly (new races and classes come to mind), you're giving the people who aren't looking for that material every month lots of reasons to stop reading the magazine. Although I'm happy to contribute to the magazine and will gladly produce core rules-only material - heck, it's fewer books I need to buy to write for the magazine -, I'm at a loss to understand how this is the right direction. www.enworld.org /showthread.php?s=4d0bd1461ed4ecb7f3dd3dbd0be9aed1&mode=hybrid&t=123699   (937 words)

Joseph Smith Criticisms-- Seer Stones In Joseph Smith’s own day other Christian leaders were involved in practices which today’s critics would call “occultic.” Quinn, for instance, observes that in “1825, a Massachusetts magazine noted with approval that a local clergyman used a forked divining rod.... Similarly, a Methodist minister wrote twenty-three years later that a fellow clergymen in New Jersey had used a divining rod up to the 1830s to locate buried treasure and the ‘spirits [that] keep guard over buried coin’....” (Ibid.

SurfWax: News, Reviews and Articles On Premiere Magazine According to Premiere magazine, Humprey Bogart s Fred C Dobbs from the 1948 movie The Treasure of Sierra Madre came in second, while Vivien Leigh s Scarlett O Hara from Gone With The Wind is the highest placed female character at third place. Premiere magazine writer Steve Pond's behind-the-scenes access was unlimited, from the pairing of presenters to the selection of the "trophy ladies," beautiful young women who carry the statuettes onstage and escort the winners off. Premiere magazine went so far as to say: "The first hour of 'The Island' plays like a much more expensive albeit scene-for-scene remake (of 'Clonus')." In addition to unspecified financial compensation, Myrl A. Schreibman and Robert S. Fiveson want "The Island" withdrawn from theaters and any further release barred, Variety said. magazines.surfwax.com /files/Premiere_Magazine.html   (3504 words)

Western & Eastern Treasures Magazine - The treasure fleet endured many setbacks and delays, and it was not until well into the Caribbean hurricane season, that the leader of the fleet, Captain-General Don Juan Esteban de Ubilla, made the fateful and fatal decision to set sail. Additionally, the sinking of a fleet and loss of great treasure in the Battle of Vigo Bay (1702), the sinking of a Spanish treasure fleet off Cartagena in 1708, and the loss of the 1711 treasure fleet off the coast of Cuba, had placed Spain in dire straits.

Animefringe: Features: Animefringe at One Well, it pays to buy those phone book sized manga magazines like Monthly Shonen Ace because they are a treasure trove of good manga that you may or may not ever see translated into English by a big-name company. Adam: "Probably the hardest thing for any magazine to do is get off the ground, just look at the gap from the time we started the first version of the site to the time the first monthly issue finally came out. The title ‘Full Circle' signifies the cyclical nature of the company as MixxZine went from a manga anthology to a magazine and how SMILE was born as a magazine and finally became the first shojo manga anthology. www.animefringe.com /magazine/01.01/feature/1/index.php3   (99 words)
