e-book acceptance his surprisingly positive experience using his Blackberry as an e-book reader. A book is, foremost, the arrangement of words in sequence, and they are, to borrow a buzz-phrase from the digital folk, platform agnostic.

And where was the concomitant record industry investment in Napster? Oh yeah, that's right, Thomas Middelhoff, head of Bertelsmann, invested in the service, saw it as the industry's future, and his record company brethren SUED HIM FOR AIDING AND ABETTING COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT! Where is the investment in Limewire? Where is the investment in anywhere the public HAS SHOWN AN INTEREST IN GOING! Stop living in the field of dreams, believing if you build it they will come, didn't work with PressPlay. Turns out the record industry's got no clue what people want. Just like Microsoft doesn't understand social networking. So they went where the FOOD WAS! Remember that old Sam Kinison routine? You shouldn't send FOOD to Africans, but SUITCASES! So they can go where the food is!

The music business has seen sales drop for seven straight years. Next year will be worse. That's the growing consensus we hear from people in the industry, who are assuming that physical sales will plummet even faster in 2008 then they have to date.

Spurred by the growing crisis in child obesity, the nation’s schools have made “considerable improvements” in nutrition, fitness and health over the last six years, according to a new government survey that found that more schools require physical education and fewer sell French fries.

The survey, which is conducted every six years, shows that more schools than six years ago offer salads and vegetables and that fewer permit bake sales. More states and school districts insist that elementary schools schedule recess and that physical education teachers have at least undergraduate training. More states have enacted policies to prohibit smoking at school and to require courses on pregnancy prevention.

Perhaps most striking, 30 percent of school districts have banned junk food from school vending machines, up from 4 percent in 2000. Schools offering fried potatoes in their cafeterias declined, to 19 percent from 40 percent.

The results of the survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention elicited cheers on Friday from public health and education officials, as well as warnings against complacency.

The epic battle of Jean Valjean and Inspector Javert will now be heard _ and sung _ in Chinese.

Cameron Mackintosh will co-present Chinese-language versions of classic Broadway and West End musicals such as 'Les Miserables' and 'The Phantom of the Opera' in China beginning next year, the British producer announced Monday in Beijing.

The productions are part of an agreement with the Chinese performing arts agency China Arts and Entertainment Group, which is affiliated with China's Ministry of Culture. Read more
