Southern literature highlighted with On the Brink Plantations and mansions may crumble over time, and traditions may change. But the stories Southerners write will survive. As we turn the pages of these books, we are looking at our own experience. That’s why attending On The Brink on Feb. 13 at Jacksonville State University should be enjoyable Hervey and informative. Folsom The conference, a Artists in Action gathering of readers and writers, will be at the Stone Center Theatre, beginning with registration from 8-9 a.m. The forum continues until 3:30 p.m. with two sessions, lunch with the authors and book signings. Reservations ($45 for adults, $15 for students) should be made by 5 p.m. today by calling Gena Christopher at 256-782-5856 or contacting her at genac@jsu.edu. Emerging writers take the stage at this annual event, reading from their works and answering questions from the audience. “We tend to invite writers who have published a first or second book,” said Steven Whitton, professor of English at JSU. “Also, we present a slate of writers who represent as many literary genres as possible.” This year, the writers have penned fiction, non-fiction, mystery and young-adult titles. “In 2007 we featured a poet as well,” Whitton said. “Natasha Trethaway was here for On The Brink several weeks before she won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry.”
Of the eight writers coming to the conference this year, two in particular lead us to compare and contrast our lives with the characters they write about, and they paint a realistic portrait with words on growing up in the South delbridge — with victories and shortcomings involved in the good life in Alabama and Georgia. Melissa J. Delbridge’s Family Bible is a memoir and brings to light a most uncommon list of names and events in a family. Growing up in Tuscaloosa in the 1960s and ’70s, Delbridge saw gable values people lived by change drastically, and some of the transitions in her life were less than fond remembrances. But looking back, these painfully southern experiences became good memories, for she learned something from all these Southern people — from Jinkie, a stripper who experimented with drugs, to Kirby, a straightforward, wealthy friend who maintained a stellar scholastic record. They, as well as an unpredictable mother and father, have their places in Family Bible. Delbridge lives in Chapel Hill, N.C., and she is an archivist in the Rare Book, Special Collections, and Manuscript Library at Duke University. Amanda C. Gable is from Marietta, Ga.,
and teaches at Agnes Scott College. Her novel, The Confederate General Rides North, tells of a little girl growing into maturity as she takes an impromptu trip with her mother to Gettysburg, Penn. Eleven-year-old Katherine McConnell is a Civil War buff and is so enchanted by Confederate generals that she imagines herself as one of them, bravely going into battle. She loves the adventure of visiting historic sites and battlefields on the trip, but soon must face some of the facts about the war and her heroes. She also questions the reason for the trip and, finally, must make a decision on her loyalty to her impulsive mother, and how she feels about the generals she admired. “Katherine learns that there is more to the stories that she has heard or read in history books about the War Between the States, and about people she revered,” Gable said. The South has its prolific contemporary writers, which adds to its rich legacy.
Prolific composers How— and why — did J.S. Bach write so many works? What motivated the famous German Baroque composer’s constant expression in abundance and variety? Ask his wife. Anna Magdalena Bach will be portrayed by pianist Gail Smith in “An Evening with Anna Magdalena Bach” as a segment of JSU’s Foothills Piano Festival on Feb. 12 at 7:30 p.m. in The Performance Center of Mason Hall. Dressed in character as Bach’s second wife, Smith will provide insight into the esteemed musician’s life and beliefs by
weaving events of his life in her narrative with tidbits of his compositions. Her purpose, she said, is to make the audience, especially younger people, better acquainted with Bach. “Of course, he doesn’t need me to promote him,” Smith said in a telephone interview from her home in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. “His music is charming, intoxicating, and books are coming out all of the time about him.” She will share her knowledge from extensive research about what it was probably like living with a genius, as told by his helpmate, a singer herself, who deeply appreciated his many chorales, minuets, sonatas and arias. “He must have composed every day of his productive life,” Smith said. “He lived just over 65 years and wrote 1,127 works. He constantly supplied orchestras, violinists, church choirs, schools, his students and his children with works.” Bach was organist and choir director for several churches. And as orchestras today learn, his concertos and suites are often in sets of six. “He had a strong faith in God, and his sets of music were symbolically numerical of working six days a week and resting on the seventh,” she said. “We really owe Bach for the technique he gave us. He was a humble man and wouldn’t spotlight himself. But as ‘a wife’ who admired him and transcribed his music, I can sing his praises.” There is no admission fee for the program. For more information on the Foothills Piano Festival, call Wendy Faughn at 256-782-8258.
Coroner: Pneumonia, drugs killed Brittany Murphy By ANTHONY McCARTNEY Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Brittany Murphy died from pneumonia, but anemia and prescription drugs also played a role, coroner’s officials said Thursday. The primary cause of the death was community acquired pneumonia, with contributing factors of iron deficiency anemia and “multiple drug intoxication,” according to the Los Angeles County coroner’s office. The death was ruled accidental. Coroner’s spokesman Craig Harvey declined to specify what types of drugs
were involved in Murphy’s death but said they were all prescription medications. Details about the drugs the Clueless and 8 Mile star had in her system will be released in several weeks when a complete report is done. Murphy died Dec. 20 at age 32 after collapsing at her Hollywood Hills home. Her mother and husband have said the actress didn’t abuse prescription medications or have an eating disorder. Attempts to reach them for further comment were unsuccessful. Murphy’s husband, Simon Mon-
jack and mother, Sharon Murphy, told investigators the actress had been experiencing flu-like symptoms in the days before she died. Monjack told The Associated Press last month that his wife did take several prescriptions, including an antiseizure drug, but did not abuse the medications. He said she had been taking overthe-counter Robitussin for her ailments. A memorial for a foundation in Brittany Murphy’s name that had been planned for Thursday was abruptly canceled, with no explanation.

Munro’s stories, if not happy, deftly human Too Much Happiness by Alice Munro; Knopf, 2009; 304 pages; $25.95 Reviewed by Steven Whitton There doesn’t appear to be all that much happiness in the new collection of 10 stories, Too much Happiness from Alice Munro, the winner of this year’s Man Booker International Prize. Not much happiness, true, but exhilarating language and frighteningly acute forays into the very human need for links to each other. There’s pain — a broken leg, a broken marriage, a broken friendship. There’s loss — unexpected, self-inflicted. But there is always Munro’s uncanny ability to make even the most horrific moments — infidelity, murder, mutilation — seem desperately and decidedly human. The collection commences with “Dimensions,” a shattering and poignant account of a young woman’s existence after the death of her three children. Only her unexpected generosity in giv-
ing back life in the final moments of the story relieves her of her torment. In “Child’s Play,” a request from her dying former friend makes known to a well-respected anthropologist the truth behind a childhood memory and exposes just what humans are capable of. “Wenlock Edge” wickedly assesses the ingenuousness of a young college girl who accepts an invitation to a private supper, a meal she must experience naked. Afterward, she realizes that she has been had in every sense of the term and eventually exacts ignoble revenge. The stories told by a man and a woman in “Free Radicals” devolve into a power play between murderers. Other stories consider the “Deep-
Holes” of family and the effect of “Fiction” on us as it tries to get at truth. “Face” deals with the effect a port-wine birthmark has on those who confront it. In “Some Women,” women of various ages and social classes tend to a dying man, each in her own way. “Wood” becomes the obsession of a man uncertain of the world around him. The long-title story returns to the focus of The View from Castle Rock, Munro’s last collection. A contemplation of history and how it is remade as fiction as memory is evoked, the story follows a 19th century mathematician during an eventful European winter as she journeys to the only university that will allow her to teach. To argue some of the stories in Too Much Happiness are more successful than others is to carp about the relative brilliance of rare gems. It is possible not to get at exactly how Alice Munro does what she does. It is impossible not to be grateful that she does. Steven Whitton is a Professor of English at Jacksonville State University.

UnforWhen big hair meets the tunately, the creativity that Big Apple, it’s love at first bite would captivate a reader ends — but as word spreads about with the amusing titles. a serial killer on the loose, The plot was weak and the Equalizers soon find out fairly predictable, and the
main characters’ personalities, which are surely meant to be endearing and authentic, are annoying and difficult to wade through. One surprise, though, was the bit of a climax fake-out when the ladies are caught off-guard and almost knocked right out of their rhinestone-studded cowboy boots. The book’s only saving grace comes with the side-story involving small-town sweetie Celina from neighboring Dime Box, Texas, who attends the NAPI conference with the hopes of meeting the Equalizers and learning more about becoming a PI herself. While Debbie Sue and Edwina are busy wrastlin’ around with a criminal who proves to be slipperier than an eel in a bathtub of baby oil, she’s being swept off her feet by a big-city boy. Sadly, even Celina’s plot
winds down into a humdrum sigh of a story and falls flat as the novel approaches its dénouement. (Spoiler alert: She lives happily ever after.) With wit as dull as ditchwater and a plot about as unique as curl in a pig’s tail, the most engaging part of the book is just how ridiculous the characters get. As a Southern girl, born and raised (and damn proud), I feel this book is a poor representation of Southern women and culture in general. Recommended reading instead of this: Fannie Flagg and Flannery O’Connor. Southern-fried fiction to say the least, Don’t Make Me Choose Between You and My Shoes is the kind of book one might take down to the local swimming hole — when you’re done reading, you can use it as a coaster or under the leg of an uneven lounge chair to get maximum use out of it.

Nneka delivers passionate new album on society Nneka Concrete Jungle Nigerian-born rapper and singer Nneka’s U.S. debut, “Concrete Jungle” unfolds like a 12-track wake-up call — an unrelenting mishmash of horns, trumpets and, sometimes, steel drums. “God is knocking at the door could you let him in?” the 28-year-old asks on accordian-driven “Showin’ Love.” She summons “Jezebels, Judases, bangers, bastards, prophets, men of God, prostitutes, popes, teachers, lawyers, all you scholars, rulers, chosen few ...” to take a hard look at what matters in life. It’s a challenge Nneka issues track after track. Even when her honeyed vocals are poured over the swinging horns of “Uncomfortable Truth,” Nneka’s message doesn’t lose its bite. “Your system is a joke, no heart in it, it’s choking us to death,” she sings. She orders listeners to reflect on their addictions and worldly temptations on the raucous, rock-inspired “Focus.” And she seeks strength from a higher power on “God of Mercy.”
With a sure tone and steady intensity on the reggaeinfluenced “Kangpe,” Nneka gives a revolutionary tinge even to the old spiritual axiom “God won’t give you more than you can handle.” She delivers her messages unabashedly, perhaps, most strikingly on the mellow-sounding “Africa.” “Lied to us, blind us, they slaved us, misplaced us, strengthened us, hardened us, then they replaced us. Now we got to learn from pain. CHECK THIS TRACK OUT: Nneka’s call for self-reflection is unrelenting, and “Mind vs. Heart” is no exception to that mission. “What is the mind without the heart? What am I without my shadow?” she asks over a haunting beat. — Melanie Sims, Associated Press
The Red Krayola is a blend of cheerful pop madness The Red Krayola with Art & Language Five American Portraits The cheerful absurdity of the Red Krayola knows no bounds. Since 1966, the Texan experimental band — actually just singer-songwriter-guitarist Mayo Thompson and whomever he chooses — has made harsh psychedelic rock, improvisational space folk, pre-punk noise and gamelan pop. Occasionally he’s done all of them at once and with that madness (to say nothing of his whimsical, lyrical abstractness) turned the Red Krayola into a must-listen, whether the music’s eerily accessible or delectably avant-garde. This teaming with Art & Language, multi-instrumentalist Jim O’Rourke and Raincoats vocalist Gina Birch, exists between those two poles. Lyrically, Thompson paints portraits of Jimmy Carter, Wile E. Coyote, George W. Bush, John Wayne and artist Ad Reinhardt with
the tiniest of literal details. It’s a silly exercise that figures nicely into Krayola and Co.’s shimmering mash of original composition and musical themes associated (in their minds) with each character. So Bo Diddley’s “Roadrunner” speeds through the cartoonish “Coyote” cut, Carter gets a dollop of “Georgia on My Mind,” and ’60s painter Reinhardt (renowned for canvases shaded in black) gets Jagger/Richards’ “Paint It Black” along with a Mozart piano sonata for his troubles. Forty-four years after its start, the Red Krayola is still as ridiculous as it is compelling. —A.D. Amorosi, MCT

Lil’ Wayne wobbles on his latest, ‘Rebirth’ Lil’’ Wayne Rebirth It’s not as easy to rock as Lil’ Wayne thinks it is, as his oft-delayed “rock” record Rebirth (Cash Money/Universal) painfully proves. For a rapper who can cut to the quick and shine with only the sparest of accompaniment, too much of Rebirth is bloated with Weezy noodling needlessly on his guitar the way many kids do when they first learn to play. What makes Rebirth even more maddening than when he gets everything wrong — as he does in the faux-Evanescence “Runnin”” or the overindulgent “American Star” — is when Wayne gets everything right. “Knockout” sounds like an ambitious update of Prince’s great “I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man” that kicks into a higher gear with an awesome freakout from Nicki Minaj. “On Fire” works an unlikely sample from Amy Holland’s “She’s on Fire” from the “Scarface” soundtrack into a nice groove.
And “Drop the World” not only comes the closest to the kind of flash Weezy showed in the multiplatinum breakthrough of “Tha Carter III,” but it also gives Eminem his most potent platform in years. With songs this good on Rebirth, why does Wayne makes us suffer through so much halfhearted, unworthy stuff? The annoying punk of “Get a Life” could have been written by countless new garage bands. The bright side is that now that Rebirth is out of the way and his jail sentence on felony gun charges is set to start next week, Weezy can hopefully soon focus once again on what he’s great at — hip-hop. — Glenn Gamboa, Newsday
Magnetic Fields’ latest more clever than inspired Magnetic Fields Realism Magnetic Fields mastermind Stephin Merritt apparently can’t get it together to record an album without some sort of defining concept, whether it’s all songs that begin with the letter I — as with 2004’s (non-autobiographical, naturally) I, or 1999’s gloriously great 69 Love Songs, a three-disc set he understandably has never quite figured out how to follow up. Realism is a companion to 2008’s Distortion. Where that one was loud, and inspired by the Jesus & Mary Chain’s Psychocandy, this collection of tight, droll, arch alt-pop songs is quiet, with mainly acoustic instrumentation. Also, it’s meant to be a commentary on notions of authenticity. We might not get that from the music had Merritt not taken take pains to tell us so. Sure, the sepulchrally
voiced singer is still a tart lyricist and canny craftsman who had me snickering at such couplets as “I want you crawling back to me, down on your knees yeah / Like an appendectomy, sans anesthesia.” But he’s mostly being merely clever here, not inspired. And really, if you’re going to put a holiday song on a disk released in January, as Merritt does with “Everything Is One Big Christmas Tree,” put it last instead of smack in the middle of the album. That’s not clever, it’s just annoying. —Dan DeLuca, MCT

is over in two years. Then 9-11 happens, and their future takes a much different turn. Dear John is at its date-movie best in the first half. It’s the sort of pretty weeper that will draw young women in droves. Later on the film gets a bit bogged down in its noble ambitions. We’d like to believe people behave in such totally unselfish ways, but such goodness and charity leave director Lasse Hallstrom (The Shipping News, Chocolat, The Cider House Rules) without many shades of gray in his melodramatic palate. Worse, he makes the colossal mistake of shortchanging the diehard romantics by wrapping up the story too suddenly; you literally feel startled when the credits roll. Still, there’s an audience for oldfashioned romance, and Dear John will please most of it, given its attractive cast, cozy beach settings and brazenly uplifting outlook on human nature. The movie looks good. It just doesn’t bear much resemblance to the way most of us live.
NEW YORK — Mel Brooks has made audiences laugh for more than a half century, but it was his wife, the late Anne Bancroft, who made him smile. It’s been nearly five years since the actress passed away, but not a day goes by that Brooks doesn’t think about her. “I had 45 of the greatest years of my life,” Brooks says. During a recent interview, the 83-year old Brooks recalled their first meeting in 1961. It was on the set of The Perry Como Show in New York, where Bancroft was brooks performing a song called “Married, I Could Always Get.” After she finished, she was greeted by Brooks who proclaimed, “I’m Mel Brooks and I’m going to marry you.” Bancroft responded: “Hey, I have your record.” She was referring to the classic comedy album Brooks did with Carl Reiner, The Two-Thousand Year Old Man. “The album came out in 1960, and this was Feb. 5, 1961,” Brooks recalls. “From that day, until her death on June 5, 2005, we were glued together.” The Brooklyn-born Brooks began his career as a writer for Sid Caesar’s Your Show of Shows. Alumni from that classic TV program included Reiner, Larry Gelbart, Neil Simon and Woody Allen. After the success of his comedy record, Brooks established a long career as a writer, director and actor. His first feature film, 1968’s The Producers, won an Academy Award for best screenplay. It became a Broadway hit in 2001. “Anne was responsible,” Brooks says of turning his Oscar script into a Tony-winning musical. Brooks says he was approached by David Geffen to do the musical version of the film, but was reluctant at first. Tensions increased when Geffen suggested bringing in Jerry Herman to write the remainder of the songs. It was then that Bancroft intervened. “I won’t let you do this, if they don’t let you do the score,” she told him. “That’s the only reason to do it, the score.” Brooks went back to Geffen, and told him: “It’s me or no musical.” And the rest is history as The Producers won a record-breaking 12 Tony Awards. Brooks says Bancroft always had his best interests at heart right until the end. One of the last things she did was help him structure Young Frankenstein as a musical. “She suggested where and when to sing, and what to save (from the film version),” Brooks said. “She was wonderful.”

Sisters’ ‘Hospitality’ drives CAST’s latest farce By Kevin Jeffers kjeffers@annistonstar.com
Fayro, Texas, is the scene. It’s a town sort of like ours — small, Southern, desperately in need of funds. To the rescue — of Fayro, not Anniston — are the Futrelle sisters, who have made it their duty to save the town by having, among other moneymaking ventures, a Civil War re-enactment to impress a rich prospector. (They recreate the Battle of Vicksburg, Miss., since there was no battle to speak of in Fayro.) Thus is the backdrop for Southern Hospitality, the third in a trilogy written by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten that opened Thursday night and continues through Feb. 14 at the JSU/McClellan Theater in Anniston. CAST performed the first part, Dearly Beloved, in 2008. Those who follow CAST know well this feisty foursome, or at least three of them. All but oldest half-sister Rhonda Lynn, played by Lolly Payne, were prominent in Dearly Beloved. Rhonda was revealed to be the sisters’ long-lost half-sister in the second part of the series, Christmas Belles. Those same followers of CAST should also expect the same hilarious antics from the sisters. “One thing about the South is that we don’t hide our crazy people. We parade them around. Very proud of them,” said Debbie Tyson, who plays second-oldest sister Honey Raye Futrelle. “The sisters get angry with each other and aggravated with each other from time to time and love to push each others’ buttons,” Tyson said. “But when somebody like Aunt Iney comes to town and starts insulting one of them, well then they all bond together. ‘You can’t talk to my sister like that! I can talk to my sister like that but you can’t!’” Tyson would be reprising the same role from the 2008 production of Dearly Beloved if not for an ovarian-cancer scare two weeks before the show was scheduled to open. “I’m fine now,” she said. “It was very disappointing to put in all that work and not even get to do the role then.” She had to give up the role, and is glad to finally play Honey Raye in Anniston. She’s played the same role since in Christmas Belles and Southern Hospitality in Gadsden productions, so she’s quite familiar with the role. Kimberly Dobbs directs — her 26th such time in her six years with CAST — and she said the closeness of the actresses off-

Rehearsing a scene from ‘Southern Hospitality’ are CAST members (standing, left to right): Debby Mathews as ‘Geneva Musgrave,’ Debbie Tyson as ‘Honey Raye Futrelle,’ Lolly Payne as ‘Rhonda Lynn Lampley,’ Denise Davis as ‘Twink Futrelle,’ Mike Crosby as ‘John Curtis Buntner,’ Mike Stedham as ‘Dub Dubberly,’ Michelle Deese as ‘Frankie Futrelle Dubberly,’ Erin Mahaffey as ‘Gina Jo Waverly’ and Linda Lee as ‘Iney Dubberly.’ Kneeling, center is Glenn Davenport as ‘Justin Waverly.’ ‘Southern Hospitality’ opened Thursday and will run through Feb. 14.
cast presents ‘southern hospitality’ The third production of CAST’s 10th season opened Feb. 4 and will be presented through Feb. 14th at the McClellan Theatre in Anniston. Show times are 8 p.m. Feb. 4-6 and Feb. 11-13 with Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2:30 p.m. on Feb. 6-7 and Feb. 13-14. Tickets are $15 for adults and $8 for students.

They get along really well,” Mahaffey said. “If you saw them out, you would probably think that they really are sisters, just because they speak to each other. And their hair is all the same color. It’s kind of weird. It’s crazy how they all look alike.” Mahaffey plays Gina Jo, a local ... ahem ... cow inseminator, and daughter of
Frankie Futrelle Dubberly, who is played by Michelle Deese. “GJ,” as they call her, is just one of the many quirky residents of Fayro. With a quick look at the four sisters — Rhonda Lynn, an admitted “cougar;” Honey Raye, whose name should all but tell you her status with the opposite sex; and mother-of-four, married-to-an-idiot youngest sister Frankie — the one who probably stands out as most different is Twink, who has been engaged several times but never married. “She’s desperate for men,” said Denise Davis, who is the only of the four actresses to reprise the role from the 2008 CAST production of Dearly Beloved. “It’s fun to get to work with the same
people,” said Davis, also the only nonSoutherner of the bunch. “This is a really great group of people. The audience will probably tell how much fun we’re having.” Deese came to the role of Frankie after the unexpected death of Kathy Ewing, who was supposed to play the role. Southern Hospitality is dedicated to her memory. Ewing’s death hit close to home for Deese, who considered her like a sister. Luckily, though, she has her fictional sisters by her side every day, both on- and off-stage. “I’ve done shows with all of (the sisters) before … I love them,” Deese said. “They’re like a second family. I recently went through a divorce, and Lolly and Denise helped push me through it. Basically, if you don’t have a good support system in your family, they’re there. “We’re stage sisters.” That’s something they all can agree on. “I think it makes it so much easier,” Payne said. “We all know each other so well. In fact, some of us may actually be related to each other. “All of the sisters are different. But they all love each other.” Kevin Jeffers is The Star’s interim entertainment editor.

Donahue’s unique quilts on display at Art Works By Kevin Jeffers kjeffers@annistonstar.com
Those who work at and operate Art Works Gallery on Noble Street admit that lifelong residents will sometimes find their gallery for the first time later in their lives, wishing they had earlier. But Betty Donahue, relatively new to the area, will be well acquainted with the place after the next few months. Donahue’s quilts will go on display at Art Works on Friday, with a reception from 5-8 p.m. Her display will remain at the gallery until May 3. She modestly dismisses her work as “mindless,” but the intricacies of her quilts show otherwise. One of the quilts took six years, and has 24,957 squares sewn together. “It’s not my favorite, but other people seem to like it,” she said. Donahue came to Alabama at age 70 a few years ago after a lifetime spent in New England. She moved here with her sister, who has since moved to Iowa. But she said she liked the area and made a life here. Bill Wilson/The Anniston Star One thing that stands out about her quilts is Betty Donahue explains the intricate stitching of one of her quilts.

On its surface, Apple’s iPad may seem like a glorified e-book reader, but developers working on games for the system say they see within its extralarge screen and faster processor, great gaming potential. “Our creative teams are really just digging in and brainstorming ideas that the power and specs of the iPad might bring to life,” said Andrew Stein, director of mobile platforms for PopCap games, maker of Bejeweled and Peggle. “Nobody could have anticipated the huge blossoming of creativity engendered by the iPhone and iPod Touch and I think the iPad could easily take this to the next level.” The iPad is essentially an over-sized iPod Touch. The device features a 9.7inch re-engineered multi-touch screen, a 1Ghz processor and 16GB to 64GB of storage. The device will be available either with WiFi only support or with the ability to connect to the Internet through a 3G AT&T cell service. The iPad, which hits this March, will sell for $500 to $830. Game developers looking to support the new device have two ways of doing so. Because the iPad will run the same sort of operating system as the iPhone and iPod Touch, it can also run the same apps built for those devices. But those apps will either have to run at their original, smaller size, or lose a bit of fidelity when they are artificially enlarged. Developers could also decide to develop games specifically for the device or to develop a higher-resolution version of their iPhone or iPod Touch games for the iPad. Firemint, which has a community of 6 million people playing its games Flight Control and Real Racing GTI, says it is already working on an “enhanced for iPad” version of Flight Control. “We want to do more than just upsize the art assets to the higher resolution,” said Alexandra Peters, Firemint’s community manager. “When we design a game we always think about the fun-
damental and unique qualities of the platform and how we can best work with those.” But, Peters says, they can’t forget that there are 75 million people with the iPhone and iPod Touch and currently zero with the iPad. “We wouldn’t be surprised if people line up at Apple stores around the world on the day iPad is released but even so, there’s a logistical limit to how quickly devices can be manufactured and sold, so it will take a while for the iPad installed base to ramp up,” she said. PopCap, despite its exuberance for the iPad and successes with the iPhone and iPod Touch, hasn’t yet announced any games for Apple’s latest bit of gadgetry. “Apple has a tough act to follow in the iPhone and iPod touch — they really rewrote the book on portable gaming with those devices,” Stein said. “From a technical spec, the iPad looks like it could be a phenomenal gaming machine and I would expect games to be the leading revenue category of apps. Commercially, the iPad is in an interesting niche and we’ll have to see if Apple has hit another home run a la iPod and iPhone.” The team behind one of the iPhone’s most talked about gaming success, Trism, has no such doubts about the success of the iPad. It’s already at work on two titles for the device. Trism 2, a sequel to the best-selling puzzle title, is being developed for both the iPhone and iPad and Trism Spinoff is being developed exclusively for the iPad, said Demiforce founder Steve Demeter. “Trism Spinoff is intended for a larger footprint device because of certain characteristics such as a higher count of trisms as well as an onscreen metagame,” Demeter said. “Trism 2 was originally going to be exclusively for iPhone and iPod Touch. However, when we realized it would be so easy to cross-compile apps for the iPad, we decided to do Trism 2 for it as well. It will look more resolute on the iPad, but other than that, it’ll be the same game.”

hollywood’s biggest night gets bigger And the nominees are... Best picture
What the nominees said “This is my fifth nomination and I’m more proud of that than all the rest of it, I think. Getting nominated, to me, that’s the plateau. After you’re nominated, it’s like a crap shoot, it’s like throwing dice.” — Morgan Freeman, best actor nominee for Invictus ••• “It was a phone call that interrupted a wonderful night’s sleep that I was having. It was the phone call. It was the phone call that you always hear people saying, ’I was awoken by the ring of the phone’ and that’s exactly what happened with me.” — Sandra Bullock on how she learned of her first Oscar nomination, for best actress for The Blind Side ••• “As soon as I heard, I jumped up and down and for some reason I kept screaming, ’I’m gonna get a car, I’m gonna get a car.’ I don’t know why.” — Gabourey Sidibe, best actress nominee for Precious: Based on the Novel ’Push’ By Sapphire ••• “I’m going to D-I-S-N-E-Y-L-A-N-D!” — Jason Reitman on how he’s celebrating his best director nomination for Up in the Air. (He had to spell out Disneyland so as not to ruin the surprise for his young daughter.) ••• “It’s never old hat. It’s too special. It’s too special to ever become that. Actors are not greyhounds. They don’t go into their work as if they’re going into a race, thinking they’re going to win — they’re not running toward this prize.” — Helen Mirren on her fourth Oscar nomination, for best actress for “The Last Station.” — Associated Press
Academy right to double the number of best picture nominees By Robert W. Butler The Kansas City Star
The rationale for doubling the slate of Oscar best picture nominees to 10 went something like this: In recent years the Academy Awards race has become too elitist, a competition of high-falutin’ but little-seen titles that most moviegoers have barely heard of. Expanding the roster to 10 nominees would allow a broader range of films to be considered, including some popular with general audiences. That in turn will entice more of us to tune in for the big Oscar broadcast on March 7. Did it work? Actually, I think it did. The list of best picture nominees announced Tuesday by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences features three box-office juggernauts: The record-smashing “Avatar,” James Cameron’s sci-fi epic that between dazzling effects dabbles in environmentalism, colonialism and ruthless capitalism. It’s now the all-time box office champ, having surpassed Cameron’s “Titanic.” Of course, it was a given that even with only five nominees, “Avatar” would be in the running. It couldn’t be ignored. The inspiring drama “The Blind Side,” about race, charity and football. Middle America has embraced this real-life story about a wealthy white family that adopted a troubled young black man and inspired him to greatness. The computer-animated “Up,” the Pixar hit that mixes cartoon fun with issues of parenthood and loneliness and which — in an astonishing five-minute segment — gave us one of the cinema’s most memorable portraits of a marriage. The only other animated film nominated for the top prize: “Beauty and the Beast,” almost 20 years ago. A fourth nominated film, the South African science-fiction effort “District 9,” which used the mistreatment of stranded space aliens as a metaphor for apartheid, was a popular hit as well, though not in the league of the above three. The new 10-nominee system also opened up the competition for more rarified titles. We always figured that the fiercely topical romantic dramedy “Up in the Air” and Quentin Tarantino’s

World War II revenge fantasy “Inglourious Basterds” were likely nominees. But it’s highly satisfying to see “A Serious Man,” “Precious,” “An Education” and “The Hurt Locker” in the running. All are accomplished efforts on serious — nay, even depressing — subjects that struggled to find audiences. Promoting this kind of work is what the Oscars should be doing. I’ve got my own grudges — where is “A Single Man” or, a personal favorite, the apocalyptic “The Road”? But by and large, it’s time for rejoicing. The system worked.

On ‘Lost,’ nothing’s irreversible By Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times
“Nothing’s irreversible,” says Jack Shepherd (Mathew Fox) to John Locke (Terry O’Quinn) in the second hour of the first episode of Lost’s final season, and on top of the obvious and tantalizing T-shirt possibilities of this statement, one can’t help but imagine it graven in stone on the archway leading into the show’s writers’ room. Possibly in hieroglyphics of their own creation. Not since the last few episodes of The Sopranos has a show’s final been so breathlessly anticipated. For five seasons, ABC’s Lost has defied the laws of time, nature, physics, character development (do any of us believe that Naveen Andrews’ Sayid tortured anyone? Or at least anyone who didn’t really really deserve it?) and narrative form to create a sprawling circus act of a show. Even the few smashed plates (OK, there were more than a few) only made the array of those still spinning in the air that much more breathtaking. So it’s not surprising that Damon Lindelof, Carlton Cuse and their writers would smash a few more rules by not only addressing all Lost questions in one fell swoop, but with the same resounding answer: Yes. (Spoiler alert, stop reading if you have it on your DVR.) Was Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell) killed by the nuclear blast or did she somehow survive? Yes! Is John Locke dead or alive? Yes! Is Ben (Michael Emerson) the ultimate villain or the ultimate victim? Yes! Does the blast reconfigure time and allow Oceanic Flight 815 to land safely in Los Angeles or are our favorite castaways still stuck on the island? Yes, yes, a thousand times, yes! In a glorious have-our-cake-and-feed-it-to-the-smokemonster-too conceit, Tuesday night’s premiere followed two disparate storylines, both chronicling the aftermath of the nuclear blast that ended Season 5. In one, Jack, Sawyer (Josh Holloway), Kate (Evangeline Lilly), Sayid, Hurley (Jorge Garcia) and the gang found themselves alive and well and still stuck on that blasted island, Sayid still bleeding, Sawyer still smoldering and Kate still gorgeously sweaty. In another, they are all safely en route from Sydney to Los Angeles. Oh look, there’s Rose (L. Scott Caldwell) and Bernard (Sam Anderson), there’s Desmond (Ian Somerhalder) saying “thanks, brotha” and, oops, there’s Charlie (Dominic Monaghan) choking on what appears to be a condom full of heroin so that Jack has to save him. And Charlie’s not the only one brought back to life — isn’t that Boone, shaking the clearly still crippled Locke’s hand? Nothing’s irreversible, that’s for sure. In a scant two hours, everyone but Elvis came back to life one way or another — Juliet (though only to die tenderly in Sawyer’s arms), Jacob (though possibly only in a ghostly way), Sayid (in an eerie reverse baptism). But the writer’s inspired decision to address all the possibilities by making all things possible creates a whole new set of questions (like isn’t it time we move O’Quinn and Emerson out of Best Supporting and into the Best Actor category?) and, amazingly, a whole new group of islanders — the followers of Jacob who seem equally prepared to preside over murder and miracles. But at its best Lost has always been about the contradictory nature of life. Just as the past two seasons dealt with the porous and untrustworthy nature of time, the final episodes of Lost seem to be taking a similar approach to life and

Evangeline Lilly, left, and Josh Holloway in a scene from ‘Lost,’ which returned for its final season with its season premiere on Tuesday. The end is coming May 23, according to ‘Lost’ co-creators Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof, who made it official that night during guest appearances on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ death, which is frankly more interesting. The passengers of Oceanic 815 are now experiencing life (and death) in parallel universes. And why the heck not? Early theories about the nature of the island posited it as heaven or hell and if we weren’t dealing with the godless media here, it would be tempting to ponder the mysterious Jacob as a Christ-figure, or at least a quasi-Aslan for grownups. Though where the kohl-eyed Richard or that wacky smoke monster, which is apparently a manifestation of the guy in the black shirt currently inhabiting John Locke’s body, fit in is anybody’s guess.
NEW YORK — CBS News chief Sean McManus said Wednesday that it’s unfair to criticize Katie Couric’s multimillion-dollar salary at a time news division jobs are being cut and that he expected the evening news anchor to stay at the network “for a long time.” Although no negotiations have taken place, McManus offered the strongest public signal yet that the network is interested in Couric beyond the May 2011 expiration of her current contract — a possibility once considered remote. “I am not anticipating, nor do I want to anticipate, life at CBS News without Katie Couric,” said McManus, CBS News and Sports president. CBS News, which has about 1,500 employees, is in the process of job cuts across all of its broadcasts. McManus declined to say how many people would lose their jobs. He said published reports — one said as many as 150 jobs would be lost — were inaccurate and the figures were too high. There’s no specific catalyst, other than the general economic downturn that has been affecting all media companies, he said. The cuts involved the closing of the network’s offices in Moscow and Tel Aviv, although McManus said CBS News will still have a presence in Russia and Israel. “We’ve done some of our best work at CBS News in the past few years, and that is going to continue,” he said. “These layoffs, as unfortunate and difficult as they may be, are not going to affect our ability to cover the news on a worldwide basis.” Despite cutbacks in bureaus outside of the United States, McManus noted that CBS had four correspondents and five camera crews in Haiti within 16 hours of last month’s earthquake. Couric was one of them. Since she’s CBS News’ highest-paid employee, at an annual salary estimated at nearly $15 million, Couric has been the subject of some anonymous grumbling by people at CBS News upset at the layoffs. McManus wouldn’t speak about any future negotiations with Couric, and whether she’d be asked to take a large pay cut in order to return. The CBS Evening News with Couric has remained in third place in the ratings behind NBC and ABC. But McManus cited Couric’s work, her interviews with Sarah Palin, Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger and Alex Rodriguez, along with reporting trips to Iraq and Afghanistan. He noted that CBS has won two duPont awards for projects where Couric was in the lead, and the broadcast has won two Edward R. Murrow awards in a row for top evening newscasts.

ing athletes who want to show off their medals must travel 20 minutes out of the city and take a tram ride to a mountainside set in the middle of the night. “They’ll come,” predicted Jim Bell, the show’s executive producer. Today looms as an evermore important promotional showcase for NBC’s Winter Olympics coverage, given the network’s dwindling audience in primetime and late-night hours. Not that it needs it, but the Olympics are another showcase for television’s most popular morning news show. Matt Lauer and Natalie Morales are arriving first at the Today set on Grouse Mountain; Lauer will carry the Olympic torch through the town of Burnaby, British Columbia, as part of the torch relay. Meredith Vieira, Al Roker and Ann Curry arrive on Feb. 12, the day of opening ceremonies. It’s the seventh time that Today has gone on location for Olympics coverage. The schedule was far more comfortable for Today and its guests during the Summer Games in Beijing two years ago. There, the live show kicked off at 6 p.m. Despite being in the middle of the night, Bell said athletes will still wake up early for the chance to be seen on national television. In many cases, they will just stay up late. “Even though it’s (3 a.m.), we’re excited to have great guests, great crowds, great energy,” he said. “It’s the Olympics. People will want to come if they have a medal draped around their neck or if they want to hold up a sign saying ‘hi’ to the people back home. It doesn’t matter to us what time it is.”
The mountain supposedly provides a great view of the Vancouver area — not that it matters in the middle of the night. The proximity to the winter sports also gives the Today personalities a chance to embarrass themselves on ice. Olympic gold medalists Picabo Street and Kristi Yamaguchi will be Today specialcorrespondentsduring the Olympics, offering commentary and analysis of the action. Today special correspondent Jenna Bush Hager will also contribute human interest stories to the mix. The Today cast will host three hours of coverage from Vancouver each morning, while the Today fourth hour will remain New York-based with Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb, Bell said. The arrival of George Stephanopoulos as cohost on ABC’s Good Morning America has done little immediately to change the equation in the morning, where Today hasn’t lost a week in the ratings for 14 years. Since Stephanopoulos started, Today has gained an extra 30,000 viewers compared with GMA, the Nielsen Co. said. Since Stephanopoulos’ start, Today has averaged 5.75 million viewers in the morning, Good Morning America has 4.4 million and The Early Show on CBS has 2.9 million, Nielsen said. “It’s a very confident show right now,” Bell said. “It’s a show that’s operating on all cylinders. The cast is doing very well. The Olympics just give us an opportunity to show that off to more people.”
