At one time, going to the casinos involved taking a vacation to Las Vegas or Atlantic City -- a vacation most couldnt afford. Now you can visit a casino from the privacy of your home. As gambling becomes a more common pastime, there is a need for magazines such as The Gambler to be available on the newsstands. This issue, the first to be on the newsstands, provides "expert advice from the best gaming authorities in the world." We are just wondering what Julia Roberts has to do with the whole gambling thing. The feature article on her doesnt give us any clues, either. Maybe it's because she was No. 1 on Forbes' Celebrity 100 Power List earlier this year.

This special issue is a result of Strive Magazine's editors listening to their audience. Readers wanted more information on how real, multi-dimensional women, with hectic schedules and demanding careers, can stay healthy, fit and sane. The editors created this issue to address all these subjects. It is the opposite of the E. F. Hutton philosophy; when their readers speak Strive listens.
With the debut of Nintendo's Game Boy Advance video game system, Nintendo Power has launched a magazine to review, preview, rate, rank and give tips on all the games available for the game system. It is published quarterly, but you can only get a subscription if you subscribe to Nintendo Power as well. Or you could pay the $14.99 cover price at your local newsstand. With Nintendo Power Advance you pay for information you get, which is not a bad deal. After all, who knows the games better than the company that makes them?
