Just before Mother's Day, my wife casually mentioned hearing Amazon.com's announcement that ample supplies of its Kindle electronic book reader were finally on hand. I'd reviewed the Kindle just after Thanksgiving, and while I liked the concept, the controls were so badly designed that I kept accidentally turning pages every time I moved my hands ever-so-slightly, so I was constantly losing my place. Being more dextrous, my wife quickly surmounted this obstacle. In fact, she loved the gadget, which allows you browse more than 120,000 Amazon titles over a wireless network and download a best-seller for 10 bucks in about a minute.

The little British publishing house that brought us the Harry Potter series and saw its stock, literally, explode, appears to have struck another vein, although a very different one. Reaching into its archives, Bloomsbury Publishing republished a pair of how-to marriage books that might better be classified as how-not-to books. Don'ts for Wives and Don'ts for Husbands, first published in 1913, were an immediate sensation in Britain when they were republished last year, selling more than half a million copies in time for Christmas.

After days of vote wrangling that lasted until the final seconds of the roll call, the House of Delegates narrowly approved a plan yesterday to let voters decide next year whether slot machine gambling should be legalized in Maryland. "Tonight was a major tipping point," Gov. Martin O'Malley said after the vote. "We still have a long way to go. We still have other steps to take, so stay tuned." The House voted 86 to 52 -one more vote than needed - to put a slots referendum that would change the state Constitution on the November 2008 ballot.
