 Title says it all.  Instead of generating a manual list,  the headlines for each issue is triggered via events that tie to the issue.

		+
		+	Title says it all. Instead of generating a manual list, the headlines for each issue is triggered via events that tie to the issue.
		+
		+	This Headline list will probably shift off of this page, for a couple of reason.
		+
		+	# I like it when I don't need to scroll much, if at all on this publication pages.
		+	# The Headlines are view-able on the events pages for each issue. Those event pages are a bit raw currently, but with time they will get nicer window dressing and easier to view options.
		+
		+	Speaking of easier to view options, the credits list and the appearance list here are very difficult to read and decipher. I appreciate the work that goes into making them, and the function of them is cool, but the formatting does not provide good visual presentation of information, creating conflict and challenge when building relations between the pieces of data.
