 Create a couple of Publications:

 >>> p1 = Publication(title='The Python Journal')
 >>> p1.save()
 >>> p2 = Publication(title='Science News')
 >>> p2.save()
 >>> p3 = Publication(title='Science Weekly')
 >>> p3.save()

 [...]

 Create another Article, and set it to appear in both Publications:

 >>> a2 = Article(headline='NASA uses Python')
 >>> a2.save()
 >>> a2.publications.add(p1, p2)
 >>> a2.publications.add(p3)
 }}}
