Gillian Welch
We won't be seeing her until tomorrow night, but since the concert counts as our Valentine's Day gift, I thought I'd provide a video of her music today.
3 comments:
Just beautiful. Enjoy the concert.ReplyDelete
If she's on tour, I thought she might have a new CD and went to her web site, but no.ReplyDelete
Welch's songs are popular among non-professional bluegrass pickers who gather for jams. I accompany my teen-aged son, the fiddler, to jams sometimes, and it is always gratifying when we're off in the heartland of the country somewhere, and a good ole boy will choose a Gillian Welch song when it's his turn to name a song. In a way, her compositions are art songs, but they speak to people from all walks of life. The lyrics are as soulful as lyrics can be, and the melodies captivating. I just love her music.
She played enough new songs last night to have a new album, but when someone shouted out for her to record one of them, she didn't mention any intentions one way or the other.ReplyDelete
A fabulous show. David Rawlings is as fun to watch as he is to listen to. I had to dig up that old New Yorker article about Welch that talked about his f-holes fronted guitar.
I have a 16-year-old nephew who sounds a lot like your son. He's a banjo player and always looking for opportunities to perform. It thrills me no end that there are still kids who love this kind of music.

I know I hurt my wife Bad. I can't say i am sorry enough.
What are you doing to show that you're sorry, rather than just saying it?
I am seeking help and went to church for first time.
What kind of 'help'? And what does church have to do with anything? Lots of people who don't sin seek the church as well...
I just can't seem to get it right sometimes and I dont want to loose her.
I don't wish to sound mean or confrontational, but this is something you're going to have to ask of yourself: why is it important to you to 'get it right' now, when you didn't obviously care before? Why don't you want to lose her? Are you still thinking selfishly about your needs (most of your sentences start with 'I' and a few mention 'I' more often than 'my wife'/'her'), rather than hers?
I think you should look deeper than "I messed up", "It's all my fault", and other blanket sentiments that vaguely encompass a lot of possible behaviors. You need to look deeper than the obvious "I messed up"s in order to find what kickstarted it all. It's never easy, it's never obvious or simple, but it's always important.

Survivor of Homicide Loss Support
The aftermath of a sudden violent death creates circumstances for survivors that are traumatic, beyond the realm of the "normal" grief experience and isolating from the usual support networks. Homicide survivors are confronted with not only intense emotions but also with the intrusive presence of media and the criminal justice system. Often, the grieving process is interrupted by an ongoing investigation process and the disclosure of new information. For some survivors, moving on in the absence of any resolution feels like an insurmountable barrier.
Due to the identified need for homicide survivors to receive sensitive and meaningful support around their unique issues and concerns, the Survivor Support Program has adapted its outreach specifically to meet the needs of those bereaved by homicide.
Participation in the program is free. People can contact the program at any time after their loss. For more information or self-referral please contact Alex Shendelman at 416-595-1716 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Courtesy of Dantley Walker

Two years removed from his commitment to UNLV, Dantley Walker today seems almost as much a rumor as a member of the Rebels' incoming recruiting class.
The others in that five-player haul are more tangible. Chris Wood is just down the road at Findlay Prep. Kendall Smith, DeVille Smith and Jelan Kendrick all came to campus in the past year, the former two attending games a day before their commitments.
Meanwhile, Walker is much farther away, in Washington, nearing the end of his two-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. While the Rebels have played on, Walker is out of sight, mostly out of mind. There are few updates and no new highlight videos on which to dwell, making his games at Lincoln County High in Panaca even more the stuff of legend, albeit against significantly less than legendary competition.
Walker, the state's all-time leader in points (3,304) and assists (887) while playing in Class 2A, scored 73 points on a February night in 2011. That was one of three times he scored at least 62 in a game that season. And despite the records only showing two seasons of his steals totals, Walker still ranks in the career top 10 in that mark, and his career made 3-pointers (475) trounce second place (287).
Prodigious production, to be sure, but how will it relate to the court at the Division I level? No one can say for certain, though Walker is eager to find out.
"It's been in the back of my mind for my whole mission, and as I get closer to coming home, it gets brought up more, so it's been on my mind a little more," Walker said via email. "I look forward to it and am really excited to get back and play for UNLV and be a part of the program."
First, though, he's looking forward to finishing his mission. Walker has traveled a lot in two years, starting first in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, then going to Spokane Valley, Wash. From there he went to Libby, Mont.; Deer Park, Wash.; and now he's in downtown Spokane.
He's worked and lived with about 10 different companions and talked with countless members of those communities through his missionary work. The frustrating part, he said, is offering help to someone who clearly needs it but won't accept it and then watching them continue to struggle on their own. Secondary to that is how much he misses the game.
"Not being able to play ball every day like I used to has been a little bit tougher than I thought it would be," Walker said.
There are uplifting moments, too, though, both in his work and on the court. The joy he gets from helping others is reflected in the gratitude of one person on Walker's Facebook page:
"(Walker) showed up on my door step in October and has been studying with us ever since. Elder Walker has definitely been a gift from God."
His studies and outreach Tuesday through Sunday have been their own reward, Walker said, making the time for the most part vanish before his eyes. But to UNLV fans, the work he does on Mondays is just as important.
Walker works out every day from 6:30 to 7:30 a.m., sometimes weights and often running, but he can only play basketball on Mondays, his de facto day off. For three or four hours, he's out on the court, surely the best shooting guard of the bunch with the records to prove it. The 20-year-old hasn't hit a growth spurt, coming in at a self-described 5-foot-10, "pushing 5-11," and 165 pounds. He's not short on confidence, though.
Walker said he usually ends his workouts with 100 made 3-pointers, first attempting 10 from five spots around the perimeter and then doing the same on the way back. It's a popular drill, one that UNLV freshman Katin Reinhardt performs at least a version of after almost every practice.
Asked how many of those he could hit right now, Walker guessed 80-90, saying his best on the first time through is 93. Undersized or not, those numbers are worth a roll of the dice.
"One of the first things I did when I got the job," UNLV coach Dave Rice said, "was call Dantley and let him know that I had watched him play in AAU basketball, I had watched him in high school and if he still wanted to come to UNLV that we wanted to recommit him and make sure he still wanted to be a Runnin' Rebel after he completed his mission."
Walker originally committed to Lon Kruger shortly before Kruger left for Oklahoma. Any questions about whether Walker would still want to come were answered when Rice, who as an assistant at BYU worked with several student-athletes who had served LDS missions, got the job.
"It wasn't like a new coach coming in with no reference point," Rice said. "I knew the potential of Dantley and what a high-character young man he is. It was a no-brainer for us and a no-brainer for him, too, I think."
Just how long it will take Walker to get used to playing every day again and how he'll be able to contribute are the questions he'll start to answer this summer when he steps on campus in time for the third summer school session that starts July 15. With a crowded backcourt, his official debut could be another season away, something Walker said is OK with him.
"I just want to go in and help win games, but whatever they need me to do is what I'll do," he said. "If a redshirt is what I need, then that'll be what I'll do."
That's a very real possibility but something Rice won't decide until the fall. In the meantime, Walker has a mission to finish. Whatever Walker does on the court this season, he's already living up to his reputation.
"My experience has been an amazing one that has been more than I expected, being able to help others and kind of forget about myself for the past two years and really focus on the needs of others," Walker said.

The Council of Europe's EDQM has participated last week in the Summit on Organ Trafficking and Transplant Tourism organised by the Pontifical Academy of Sciences of the Vatican State to raise awareness on organ trafficking and human trafficking for the purpose of organ removal. On the occasion, the EDQM provided its contribution to a Statement, signed by all participants at the Summit, pledging their commitment to promoting ethical organ donation.
The Statement on Organ Trafficking and Transplant Tourism proposes a set of recommendations to governments, judiciary and religious leaders, as well as professional healthcare organisations and the general public, for combating organ trafficking and related illicit practices at a global level. In particular, it stresses the importance of legal instruments against trafficking in human organs, and calls on all governments across the world to establish and implement legal frameworks, such as the one foreseen by the Convention against Trafficking in Human Organs of the Council of Europe (CoE).
Echoing the recommendations in the Statement, Dr Margaret Chan, Director General of the World Health Organisation (WHO), issued a message stressing the importance for all governments to become a Party to the CoE Convention against Trafficking in Human Organs, as a means to prevent "the affront to human dignity that occurs when desperate people sell body parts and equally desperate people buy them".
Trafficking in human organs and trafficking in human beings for the purpose of organ removal have global proportions, with transnational organised crime groups profiting from the often vulnerable situations of donors and recipients. These crimes are not circumscribed to single countries, as groups often operate throughout regions where laws against the sale or purchase of human organs are marred by loopholes or are poorly enforced. The CoE's Convention against Trafficking in Human Organs has a global dimension for the very purpose of setting a global and common approach to the problem, and for this reason, the CoE Convention is open to any country around the world.
Organ shortage around the world is the root cause of organ trafficking. Therefore, since 1987, the work of the Council of Europe in the area of substances of human origin has aimed at establishing ethical, safety and quality standards in the field of organ donation and transplantation, and at promoting the non-commercialisation of organ donation and the fight against organ trafficking.
The Summit on Organ Trafficking and Transplant Tourism marks a milestone for having brought together more than 70 signatories from all over the world, and reaching consensus conclusions and recommendations, which will deeply influence and guide many nations in the fight against the crime of organ trafficking.

Gophers coach Don Lucia announced Thursday afternoon that sophomore forward Gabe Guertler had been granted a release from the hockey program.
No other details were given.
The Florida native, who's dad grew up in the Twin Cities and played high school hockey, skated in 24 games for the Gophers last season and scored five points (two goals, three assists). He anchored the fourth line at center during the Gophers' late-season run to the Frozen Four and national championship game.
An announcement that Guertler committed to play for the Soo Greyhounds of the Ontario Hockey League dropped within an hour of the Gophers' press release.
"Im really excited to be a part of the Soo Program. I think it's a great opportunity for me to get better as a player," Guertler said in the Greyhounds' statement. "The Soo is a great program and are a top-tier team in OHL. I look forward to getting started."
Though Guertler showed promise late in the season, he started out his career on the wrong foot. He was arrested last September and charged with drunk driving on a moped near campus. Lucia suspended the freshman indefinitely.
Guertler eventually made his collegiate debut in early November against Notre Dame and would go on to earn a regular role in the Gophers' lineup. A tumultuous first year likely didn't help in determining how Guertler fit into the Gophers' future plans and he was given the option to take a release.
After the annoucement of Guertler's departure, the 2014-2015 roster went live with 19 players listed and no mention of incoming freshmen.

Cheney Tone Adjuster
The Cheney will play a
lullaby as soft as a whisper
or fill a large hall with a
rollicking dance.
Twelve distinct gradations
of tone, logically controlled
at the source. Tones always
crystal clear ,sweet and pure.
"Thi Lonbb You Plat It,
The SaTsrrEa. It Grow.
Tone, Quality and Technique
A virtuoso could scarcely display his art
with an ordinary violin or piano. Perfect
technique alone docs not make a master.
So with phonograph records. It is easy to
play them but the Cheney, like a Stradi
vanus violin, gives renditions new beauty.
Its rich, majestic tones are unrivalled.
Acoustic principles, never applied before to
phonographs, have set The Cheney mv
questionably irt a class apart.

On Monday, Sept. 12 at 7:14 p.m., Oro Valley police responded to an apartment at 8215 N. Oracle Road in response to a domestic disturbance. When police arrived, they were directed to the back room of the apartment, where a man was being held down by his 16-year-old son. The man's wife told police that he had become very intoxicated, fell and broke a table, and then fell again and broke a window. The man blew a Breathalyzer reading of .40. Mountain Vista Fire Department then responded to the scene, where they found the man's vital signs to be stable and medically clear. He was arrested for domestic violence and disorderly conduct, and booked into the Pima County Adult Detention Complex.
On Monday, Sept. 12 at 2:52 p.m., Oro Valley police responded to the Sally Beauty Salon at 10785 N. Oracle Road in response to shoplifting. Police met with the manager who described a woman who had come into the store. The manager said she was helping another customer when the woman tried to leave the store without paying for some items. The manager said the woman got confrontational and left. She had told the woman to stay because she was calling the police. The woman gave the manager back two French nail stickers valued at $3.99 each and left. The manager was able to get the license plate number and gave it to police to search the area. Police were unable to locate the vehicle or contact the owner of the vehicle.
On Monday, Sept. 12 at 10:44 a.m., Oro Valley police responded to house near Naranja Drive and La Cholla Boulevard in response to a neighborhood problem. Police met with the homeowner, who told police she had placed boulders along her side yard to prevent people from parking in her gravel. Police noticed the boulders were arranged in a pile on the center of her side yard. Police asked nearby neighbors if they had any information about the rocks being moved. One person told police he had seen a group of kids walking around the neighborhood the night prior but did not know if they moved the rocks. The woman said she would have her gardener place the rocks back in their proper locations.

Mets place Cedeno on DL; recall Valdespin
Mets place Cedeno on DL; recall Valdespin
Cedeno, who has not played since Saturday, tested his calf prior to Wednesday's game against the Phillies, but could not prove himself healthy enough to avoid his second DL stint of the season. With starting shortstop Ruben Tejada still recovering from a strained right quad, Cedeno had been receiving daily playing time, batting .231 with one home run.
After watching Cedeno test his leg, Mets manager Terry Collins classified the shortstop's condition as "OK. Not great." The manager then added, "I'm not sure OK is going to play."
Though Tejada may be nearing a return from the DL, the Mets must proceed in the interim with a mix of Omar Quintanilla and Valdespin at short. The bulk of those at-bats may go to Quintanilla, who endeared himself to Collins with a three-hit performance in his Mets debut Tuesday. But Valdespin was in the midst of a 7-for-20 stretch at Buffalo prior to his callup, knocking in seven runs over his last six games.
Overall, Valdespin was hitting .279 with four home runs at Buffalo, splitting his time amongst shortstop, second base and center field. Because of the injuries to Tejada, Cedeno and Turner, this is Valdespin's third stint with the Mets in less than two months.

A campaign manager involved in what prosecutors say was a bribery scheme to help get a district judge elected in Collin County in 2008 pleaded guilty on Monday.
James Stephen Spencer, 45, agreed to a plea deal on the eve of his criminal trial. Jury selection started Friday and was set to resume Monday.
Spencer pleaded guilty to three felonies: one count of engaging in organized criminal activity, one count of bribery and one count of money laundering. Five other counts of bribery were dismissed.
Spencer faced up to life in prison on the charges. Under the plea deal, he will spend 100 days in the Collin County jail, serve 10 years of probation and pay a $10,000 fine. He must also serve 1,000 hours of community service.
Spencer didn't testify, and little was said in Monday's hearing beyond the parameters of the plea deal. A gag order remains in effect in the case, so attorneys involved could not talk to the media.
This is another win for the state attorney general's office, which took over prosecution of the politically charged case from the Collin County district attorney's office several years ago.
Spencer is the third of four defendants to be convicted. Former District Judge Suzanne Wooten and Stacy Stine Cary were convicted earlier in separate jury trials.
Prosecutors have said that Spencer helped Wooten get elected with money from Cary in exchange for future favorable rulings in court. Cary's husband, David, was involved in a contentious child custody hearing with his ex-wife. Efforts to overturn rulings against him had been unsuccessful.
Cary's trial is set for April.
Spencer testified during the previous trials that the $150,000 from Cary was for consulting work he did. He also testified that his billing practices were sloppy but not an indication of bribery. Evidence at those trials showed that Spencer used much of Cary's money to finance Wooten's campaign. Wooten later repaid the money, but it was never reflected on her campaign finance statements.
Wooten's win in the 2008 Republican primary unseated a sitting judge, something unheard of in Collin County.
A jury convicted Wooten on nine felony counts after a two-week trial in 2011. She accepted a plea deal with prosecutors for sentencing that required her to resign from the 380th District bench. She was placed on 10 years' probation, ordered to do 1,000 hours of community service and pay a $10,000 fine.
In October, a judicial conduct board voted to suspend Wooten's law license for the duration of her probation rather than disbar her.
Attorney Peter Schulte said Wooten maintains her innocence. Monday's guilty plea from her former campaign manager doesn't change that, he said.
"People plead guilty to things for a variety of reasons, not necessarily because they are in fact guilty," Schulte said.

Hi guys,
Sorry for the super whiney post yesterday. I'm feeling much better today. I don't know what my problem was. Sometimes I just need to get over myself, ha.
For those of you that don't follow me on twitter (and I don't blame you, I tweet an absurd number of times a day), the sentencing hearing for this morning was continued until October 14th. I was all set to go, the USAO was all set to go, the judge was all set to go....but the defendant wasn't. Apparently he had some issues with his plea, so he opted to review it again with his attorney.
Which is *fine*. I'd rather this be done the right way, beyond a reasonable doubt, than for someone to feel rushed into doing something they are not comfortable with. Worst case scenario: he spends another month in jail. Well, actually worst case scenario is that he disavows his plea and we go to trial anyway. Not that it would matter in the end. But I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
I really want to thank WABA, and especially executive director Shane Farthing who showed up in person. It really meant a lot. I know this was posted last minute, so I really wasn't expecting a huge or even a small showing. It didn't help that the docket wasn't showing up on the court website & that the room got changed at the last minute. But it really was a big help. I guess I didn't really understand how it would feel to be on the "victim" side of things, since I'm used to being on the police officer side of things. I've testified in court bunches and bunches of times. I'm used to it. But I won't lie and tell you that my stomach was in knots and I desperately wanted to see a familiar face. It was a big relief to know that I wasn't alone (and I know many of you were thinking of me, since my phone kept buzzing in a most reassuring manner).
Also, I really want to thank the cyclist that showed up and said hello to me after the hearing. I really wish I had a chance to get your name and thank you. Again, it meant a lot.
I do want to draw your attention to WABA's attempt to get a bicycle anti-harassment law passed. If you click on that link, it will also take you to a link for a video in which a DC cyclist is clearly harassed and then purposely struck by a motorist. It's unfortunate that incidents like this are far too common. This is why this anti-harassment legislation is needed.
On a more reassuring note, I want those of you that either already are or especially those that are considering cycling in DC: it really is safe. It has come to my attention recently that many folks out there feel that cycling is a dangerous activity. It really isn't. It is unfortunate when incidents like mine and the cyclist's in the video happens, but it doesn't mean it will happen to you.
I ride a bicycle *every day*. For many days, I ride a bicycle between 4-6 hours a day in various parts of the city. I would say that 98.9% of the time, it is without incident. Since I have taken up cycling, my stress levels during my commute (and at work) have dropped significantly. You know who are stressed? Motorists! Drivers are disgruntled. From the impolite gestures to the impatient honking, I wonder how some of them simply don't collapse from heart attacks. Luckily they tend to aim their frustrations at each other. The best cure for a bad mood is a good, long bike ride. There have been plenty of times I've woken up & dreaded going to work--but by the time I arrived I felt a million times better. I've never, ever heard a motorist make the same claim. I can't imagine that being stuck in the morning rush hour is a mood-booster. Sure, I encounter the annoying/aggressive motorist or fellow cyclist (and even pedestrian). But they are the minority. Most of the people I encounter while I'm riding simply fall off my radar because they aren't doing anything to draw attention to themselves. Most people know how to behave. It's when people misbehave that you notice them, and it only takes one arsehole to ruin your day. The best remedy for that is to simply get back on your bike and ride.
In fact, if you really want a good idea of what it is like to ride a bicycle every day, I strongly urge you to read Tales from the Sharrows. This blog is a true, detailed account of his every day commutes to & from work in an urban environment. You might be pleasantly surprised to find out how easy & pleasant it can be.
My point is that riding a bicycle is a safe & fun activity. Sometimes we forget that, and focus way too much on potential dangers.
Hopefully, I will see you out there!
Happy Thanksgiving 2017!!

The best short films are like the best short pop songs: marvels of compression. Bob Dylan required 12 minutes to get through Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands, but didn't he cover just as much emotional terrain in the three-minute radio edit of Just Like a Woman? As this year's Oscar nominees for best live-action short film demonstrate, you don't need 100 minutes, heavy-duty CGI and big stars to grab the eyes and pack a punch.
(U.S./South Africa, Bryan Buckley, 16:28 minutes)
Bryan Buckley's skills as an award-winning writer and director of TV commercials stand him in good stead in this gripping, deftly paced story about a runtish Somali boy (Harun Mohammed) who dreams of joining the older boys of his village in their raids on trawlers and yachts on the Indian Ocean. Forget piracy, advises the elderly Erasto (Ibrahim Moallim Hussein) – stick to fishing. And he emphasizes the point by giving Asad a big tuna to take to his mother. Things get complicated when Asad crosses paths with heavily armed thugs on the prowl from Mogadishu. Shot in South Africa with a cast composed entirely of Somali refugees, Asad is a winner on all fronts: There's suspense, humour, pathos, wonderful characters, adventure and the sense we're getting the real goods about a part of the world we don't know enough about.
(U.S./Afghanistan, Sam French, 29 minutes)
Produced by Afghan-Canadian Ariel Nasr for the not-for-profit Afghan Film Project, Buzkashi Boys is set in hardscrabble contemporary Kabul, where poverty is all and everything seems to be in hues of chalk, grey or ochre. As with Asad, director/co-writer Sam French relies heavily on local, untried talent to tell a bittersweet tale of two charcoal-smeared urchins – one (Fawad Mohammadi) the son of a widowed blacksmith, the other (Jawanmard Paiz) an orphaned beggar – who dream of lives beyond what circumstances have provided so far. Ahmad the beggar is particularly keen on being a buzkashi rider – Afghanistan's equivalent of polo, except that it uses a headless, disemboweled goat carcass instead of a ball. A great coming-of-age film, carried by the underplayed brilliance of its two young stars and its rich mise-en-scène.
(U.S., Shawn Christensen, 19:41 minutes)
New Yorker Richie is having a bad night, so bad in fact that as Curfew opens we find him prone in a water-filled bathtub slitting his wrist and preparing to slip this mortal coil. Then his rotary phone rings: It's his sister (Kim Allen) who's in desperate straits and needs Richie (played by Curfew writer/director Shawn Christensen) to babysit her nine-year-old daughter Sophia (Fatima Ptacek). Richie agrees, and he and the precocious, loquacious Sophia proceed to have a series of modest adventures. Beautifully paced, elegantly shaped, funny and sad, with a hip score, Curfew feels wonderfully complete, rather like a good New Yorker short story by Lorrie Moore, Mary Gaitskill or the young Richard Price.
(Belgium, Tom Van Avermaet, 20:29 minutes)
The sumptuous production values and narrative slipperiness of this Goth-inflected fantasy/thriller are worthy of a much larger picture. And who knows? Maybe that will come to pass. Short films often have served as that sort of calling card. Matthias Schoenaerts is Nathan Rijckx, a soldier apparently killed during the First World War but who now exists in a sort of twilight zone between life and death, present and past. He's working for a mysterious, menacing art connoisseur for whom he takes photographs of people's shadows at the moment of their violent deaths, the results of which are then pinned and framed in a long hallway. Apparently once Rijckx photographs 1,000 shadows, he can resume living and rejoin the nurse (Laura Verlinden) he was smitten with just before he was killed. There's a twist, of course. Easily the most gorgeous looking of the five nominees.
(Canadian, Yan England, 21 minutes)
This is Montrealer Yan England's second live-action short, an affecting and persuasive depiction of one man's descent into the foggy, prismatic universe of Alzheimer's. England self-financed the film and that fact is evident in the modesty of Henry's production values. England nevertheless has a firm grasp of narrative, which is helped immeasurably by the lead performance from veteran Quebec actor Gérard Poirier. Indeed, Poirier, 83 at the time Henry was shot, is in every scene and functions without fail as the film's heart and soul. Like Curfew, Henry feels complete as it is, neither a feature-film wannabe nor under-realized cinematic sketch.

'Jersey Shore' stars Snooki and JWoww are sick of talk-show host Joy Behar making fun of them — and struck back over the weekend with an obscenity-filled YouTube spoof.
In the homemade video, Snooki (Nicole Polizzi) pretends she is Behar, telling why she has been so hard on the "Jersey Shore" cast.
"You know why I don't like them?" asks Snooki as Behar. "Because these people ruined my life in high school, and that's why I have to talk sh-t about them on my little talk show."
"The guidos," JWoww (Jenni Farley) pipes in. "Back in the day — when was that? Back in the '30s? Instead of worrying about the Great Depression, they were worried about making my life a living hell."
The tape is one of several in which the reality stars have posed as hosts of a fictional talk show called "The Flow and Nancy Show."
"I'm a hater," Snooki (as Behar) says. "But deep inside, I'm f- – -king obsessed with [Snooki]."
The nearly eight-minute tape appears to have been recorded in a hotel room. Several times during the improvised performance, the two women slip out of character and break up in laughter.
Behar — who co-hosts "The View" in the morning and has a primetime talk show on CNN's Headline News network at night — has been hard on the kids from the MTV reality series.
But the last straw seemed to be a segment on Behar's HLN show last week that questioned whether Snooki actually wrote a young adult novel, "Shore Thing," published last week.

The urgent need to raise the finances to meet the funding goals of the Paris Agreement, especially to support action by developing countries, took center stage Monday at the UN Climate Conference (COP23) in Bonn, Germany.
It has been a wild ride for oil prices. November 4th, 2017, prime minister of Lebanon Mr. Hariri resigns, at night missiles from rebel occupied Yemen can be seen hurtling across the sky of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. What begins next has been widely covered by all the major media outlets.
New commitments and initiatives in energy, water and agriculture sectors were announced on Friday, at the United Nations Climate Conference (COP23) in Bonn, Germany, under the auspices of the Marrakech Partnership for Global Climate Action to help implement the Paris Agreement.
The Supreme Court of India recently imposed a ban on the use of petcoke and furnace oil in the states of Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana which are situated in the National Capital Region (NCR). The ban comes in the wake of several public interest petitions filed before the Supreme Court as well as the National Green Tribunal regarding the alarming rise in air pollution in Delhi and the associated health and environmental hazards.
To tackle the double challenge of energy poverty and climate change – producing clean, affordable energy at a pace that will meet rising demand without environmental detriment – all stakeholders must step up efforts to transform the world's energy systems for everyone's benefit, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres said Wednesday.
On July 14, 2015, the P5+1, the European Union, and Iran reached an agreement under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The agreement stipulated that all UN Security Council sanctions as well as all multilateral and national sanctions related to Iran's nuclear program would halt in exchange for a commitment from Iran to roll back its nuclear activities.
Oil prices are forecast to rise to $56 a barrel in 2018 from $53 this year as a result of steadily growing demand, agreed production cuts among oil exporters and stabilizing U.S. shale oil production, while the surge in metals prices is expected to level off next year, the World Bank said on Thursday.
It has been a week of repeated insults to U.S. adventurism and Donald Trump's ill-defined Middle East policy. In Iraq, thanks to Iranian backing and astute negotiation, Kirkuk province is back in the hands of the Shia government in Baghdad halving the Kurds' oil revenues. Iran now has a land bridge through Syria to the Mediterranean improving the accessibility of its exports to Europe.

(NECN) - Kristy Lee, Justin Michaels, and Nelly Carreno check in with the day's top entertainment headlines.
It's twilight for the Twilight franchise. The stars of the move hit the black carpet in Los Angeles Monday night for the premiere of the series finale -- Breaking Dawn: Part 2. Thousands of fans had camped out for days just to get a glimpse of the cast. The film opens nationwide Friday.
Newlywed Anne Hathaway opened up about her dramatic weight loss for her role in Les Miserables. The actress told 'Vogue' that she dropped 25 pounds to play a struggling mother in the 1800's in the film. She said that she dropped the weight by eating two thin squares of dried oatmeal paste a day.
Taylor Swift is talking about her role in relationships. The singer, who's songs often portray her dating life, opened up to Harper's Bazaar saying that sometimes two people are just toxic together, and the trick is to find the one who isn't. Swift also says that she'd prefer a guy who can make most of the decisions, since she already does that with her own career.
Victoria's Secret has apologized for putting a Native American-style headdress on a model for its annual fashion show. The company also said it would not include the outfit in the show's television broadcast next month. The headdress is a symbol of bravery. The model -- Karlie Kloss -- also tweeted her own apology.

The 19-year-old from East Hampton who went missing Wednesday evening has been found safe and the Silver Alert has been canceled, according to police.
East Hampton police said Newell was found unharmed around 7:30 p.m. Thursday.
Ashley Newell went missing around 5 p.m. Wednesday in the woods near her home on Chestnut Hill Road. Police said Newell has cognitive issues and was considered an endangered person.
According to East Hampton Fire Chief Greg Voelcker, Newell walked out of her home and into the woods.
Emergency crews canvassed the area Wednesday night into Thursday evening, going door-to-door, checking homes and yards and bringing in police dogs to help with the search.
"We had 65 volunteers from the fire department, the Community Emergency Response Team," Voelcker said.
The search continued overnight and into Thursday.
Neighbors said they received an Everbridge alert from East Hampton police indicating that police were searching for a white 19-year-old female. They said fire officials, police officers and helicopters were canvassing the street.
Portland police and Connecticut State Police assisted with the search.

Constable fires at fleeing car theft suspect
Updated 12:22 am, Tuesday, March 19, 2013
GALVESTON — A Galveston County constable fired a shotgun during a chase that topped 100 mph Monday before learning that the driver was accompanied by a 15-year-old girl.
No one was injured and the driver, Kermic Ray Gamble, was subdued with a Taser and arrested after he abandoned the car in Texas City and tried to run, according to Texas City Police Chief Robert Burby.
Charges are pending.
Burby was not sure whether Gamble, 17, and the girl were from La Marque or Texas City. Their relationship was unclear on Monday.
Stolen Yukon
The chase began shortly after police received a call at 8:31 a.m. from a Texas City man who saw someone driving his wife's GMC Yukon that had been reported stolen. The man, whose name police did not release, followed the Yukon to a residence in Texas City. The Yukon driver entered the residence, but quickly returned to the SUV and drove away.
The vehicle owner followed until police arrived and tried to stop the Yukon.
Gamble refused to stop, authorities said, and led police on a chase that reached 110 mph on the highway and 60 to 90 mph through residential streets in Dickinson and Texas City.
At one point during the chase Constable Michael Montez fired a shotgun round at the tire of the Yukon because he believed his life was in danger. Burby was unable to supply details, but said the reason for the weapon discharge was under investigation.
Girl escapes
After the shotgun was fired, the 15-year-old girl called her father, who called police. A dispatcher then called the girl and told her to tell the driver to surrender to police.
The chase continued, but at 8:58 a.m. Texas City police were ordered to break off the chase and continue following the Yukon.
Police by this time had learned the driver's identity and feared that the high speeds and reckless driving could endanger the public.
The girl was able to get out of the Yukon at about 9:15 a.m. Burby said it was unclear how she got out.
Tracked by a dog
The driver abandoned the car at 14th Street N. and Second Avenue S. in Texas City and police gave chase on foot.
Police used a dog to track the driver to a vacant upstairs apartment in the 1200 block of Third Avenue N. at 9:47 a.m., Burby Said. Officers used a Taser on Gamble after he refused to comply with their orders, Burby said.

After helping the Republic of Ireland secure a 1-1 draw with the Czech Republic in Dublin, defender Darren O'Dea hopes he has done enough to book his place in Giovanni Trapattoni's UEFA EURO 2012 squad. Debutant James McClean also has his fingers crossed that his late cameo may earn him a seat on the plane this summer. Czech forward Milan Baroš, meanwhile, was delighted to score his 40th international goal and strike partner Jan Rezek was impressed with the team's passing game.
Darren O'Dea, Republic of Ireland defender
It was a typical warm-up game in that both sides were quite cagey early on. It's all preparation for the EUROs and in the end it wasn't a bad result to get away with a draw.
We're happy with the workout but I think we can play better than we showed tonight. I think I've done enough to get into the final squad but that's up to the manager. Every time I've come in I think I've done well and obviously it's up to me to keep playing well between now and the end of the season.
James McClean, Republic of Ireland midfielder
Growing up as a fan and watching the games on TV, it was amazing to get that reception when I came on. It would be a dream to get into the squad for the EUROs, but first of all I have to stay focused on playing well and continuing to improve for Sunderland.
Milan Baroš, Czech Republic striker
Of course I'm happy to get my 40th goal for the national team. All the goals I score are important and this one is no exception. I thought I might have been offside for the goal but I stepped back and once the goalkeeper came out towards me it was easy for me to score. It's just a pity we didn't get the win but we are pleased with the way we played.
Jan Rezek, Czech Republic striker
We tried to play a passing game and in my opinion we deserved to win. We showed we can cope without important players like [Tomáš] Rosický and [Roman] Hubník. We will be even stronger when they come back and this result gives us a lot of confidence going into the finals.

Last year there were times when Mike Morrison didn't know whether he was coming or going.
The Phoenix Coyotes goaltender was shuffled back and forth between Greenville and Edmonton before finishing out the season in Ottawa.
Yesterday, the Medford, Massachusetts, native was back at Rexall Place facing his former team, trying to earn the backup role with the Coyotes.
He played the first half of the game, giving up three goals on 16 shots before making way for Josh Tordjman.
"It was good to get out there against the old boys in Rexall Place," Morrison said. "It was a fun game."
Two of the goals Morrison let in came on five-on-three power plays. Rob Schremp beat him on a one timer, and then Raffi Torres tipped on in front. Toby Petersen then beat him on a two-on-one break.
"I felt bad for him because he had two and a half minutes of five on threes," said Coyotes head coach Wayne Gretzky. "Guys at this level, five on three makes it pretty vulnerable for a goalie. I was happy with the way Mike played. Giving up those two goals on the five-on-three, I'm not going to really worry about that I thought he had a good night."
Morrison won his first three games as an Oiler last season, and finished with a 10-4 record in Edmonton. There was a time when it looked like he could be the answer to the team's goaltending woes, but eventually the bubble burst.
The Coyotes signed Morrison as a free agent to battle with David LeNeveu and Philippe Sauve for the backup position behind Curtis Joseph.
"He has a chance," said Coyotes goaltending coach Grant Fuhr. "We have a few guys who have a chance. We're hoping that one of them steps forward and grabs the job."

To me, these are the new style. We had a post a good distance out, and pulleys mounted to the post and the house. The clothesline wrapped around both pulleys and was continuous. Mom would go out onto the back porch with the laundry basket, clip something on, slide it out to expose more line, clip another on, etc. Taking things off was just the reverse - remove the first item, reel in the second. We could also use it from the ground, but this was a lot less carting around of the laundry basket, and less chance of accidental drops. It also let it be longer because one end was considerably higher, mounted on the house.The most memorable part, though, was that the pulleys squeaked. You could always tell when Mom was working the clothesline. The screech was remarkably like a blue jay's alarm cry, which confused me now and again.
Yes, I bought spray paint in forest green to spray my wrought iron plant stands, so I'll be doing the same thing. I have no excuse, it's warm here already!! Thanks, Cel!
My poles are a rusted brown. I went digging for some paint. Only thing I found was some pine green.giggles.. I know what I'm going to be doing on the next warm day .
I so agree with everyone about that fresh smell. Sometimes the old and seemingly inconvenient way is the best way. The clothesline we had was just like in this pic, only not red! Wooden clothespins, too. Thanks, Jiggy, Patti, Cel, Gracie & Rob, glad you enjoyed the memories. I think all of us can relate to this one!
I have a clothes line & a Dryer tex. I use the dryer only when it's wet or if I'm in a hurry. I love towels that lin- dry on a windy day - makes them softer & fluffier if they dry that way.When I was a kid we had long lines strung across the yard with long poles to prop them up!!
I don't have to remember this Tex! my next door neighbour has one.
I still have mine and hang clothes and linens out any chance I get :) smiles
I still see them now and then. :) Thanks, TS!
That fresh smell was wonderful! Thanks, Tex
We always had one at home, and hanging the wet stuff was usually my job as soon as I was old enough. I still remember that delightful smell. I guess it never leaves you. Thanks, Lajuin, Muggles and Jan!
I had one all of the years we had kids at home. Made ironing my husband's white shirts less of a chore.Had one "bad" experience. My husband was out of town and we had to take our Japanese student to the airport. I had all of the sheets on the lines - I would bring them in and make the beds all fresh. While we were gone a major rainstorm came. Alas. Had to bring them in and use the dryer so we could go to bed.
Wish I had one in the back yard
Yes, when I was a kid, I helped Mom wash and put out the clothes and sheets. The smell of them blowing in the wind was so delightful. Not much ironing either. Put the sheets right back on the bed. Many homeowners Association will not let you hand out washing. Just not the same in the dryers.
Robbie, Robbie, Robbie! How we missed you! I have to agree with you about the teeth (tees), and Chooks, I never thought you'd figure out that I'm hiding him! Laura, of course I never told them. They all grew up to be bigger than me!
By the way, Chookies, I bought my wooden clips in a hardware store.
Ah, Tex, what a little imp you were. Did you ever confess to your nieces and nephews or are they blissfully ignorant to this day?
Come to think of it - it sure does look like 'im, Robbie - I believe he's gone into hiding!!!!
I sure do Tex and my mom had a ringer washer to go along with it. She would haul baskets of laundry up a dozen steps, then halfway up a hill to the clothesline!! Hey is that Jacques hiding in the bushes? I recognize his teeth!! (Hee-Hee) Fun puzzle and comments, thanks.
Here's a memory for you: I always had to watch my younger nieces & nephews when they all came to visit on holidays, and at Easter, I'd get very tired of hiding the eggs over and over! So I once put them all in a pail and hung the pail on one of those hooks on the clothesline pole! They hunted for hours before they gave up!
I've never seen them red either, maybe it matches the house. Interesting about the wooden pins, Chooks, I didn't know that, nor did I know you could roll up the wire. I thought Bomber meant the poles, which would make it handy to mow around. And oh, how I remember those birds getting inside the poles, too, Warbler! Sweet memories.
My grandmother had a clothes line like this. I got one now in Arizona. Don't use mine in Idaho until July, too much rain until then. Thanks for the reminder.
I also remember being pretty little and my sister and I would pin up a pair of old sheets side by side with the same pins and pull them apart at the bottom and wieght them with rocks, to make a tent, and play in it. Our cross poles didn't have capped ends and a wren would nest in one of the poles. Thanks for the memories, Tex.
Tex, the only place we can purchase wooden clothes pegs now is in Craft Stores. They're all made of plastic now. The clothes line also retracts into a unit at one end and when the line isn't in use, you just unclip one end and walk the line into the unit and the clothes line is out the way.
Haven't seen these in a long time, when we were first married and living in New Mexico, I used these all year long to dry our laundry. Mrs. Quinn!
We still have them here in Arizona. Though I haven't seen any painted red.
Well we could do with them too, since we get hardly no cold weather here. Chooks, by wooden dolly pegs, did you mean the clothespins? I do have a lot of those left from when my mom had a clothesline. Chickie, you better watch out for those birds, they might poop on the sheets! Thanks, Chooks & CM for stopping in.
Yep, got one right out my window. One of my bird feeders in hanging on it and that bird house the woodpecker is on.
I was wondering what you were referring to, tex. I thought maybe they were the wooden (dolly) pegs but if you're referring to the clothes line - well, that's all I use - summer and winter. Although I do have a clothes dryer, I don't use it very often, only when I really have to. Mine looks exactly like this one, only cream uprights, and twice as long!
Oh, wow, Ringleader, your comment brings back even more memories! GGL, like I said, I'd love to have one now, top. I've never seen one that rolled, Bomber. That would help when you mowed the grass! We had one of these, but not the Tiki either, Trish! Good luck, Bloorox, you'll be sleeping on great smelling linens! Thanks for stopping by.
And don't forget the yellow jacket's nest in the hollow ends.........
Let's see. They were goal posts for games, trapeze bars (when the lines were down), posts for climbing and sometimes the goal post for croquet. Oh, yes, and a nuisance to mow around with a hand, clackety-clack mower.
I love these! As soon as we move from our apartment to a house, I'm going to get one! :) As grannygoatlady says, there's nothing like the smell of clean sheets dried out by wind.
What do you mean "remember"....I still hang out most of my laundry. There's nothing like the smell of clean sheets after a day in the sun and wind.
oh yes. but not the tiki god in the garden!!! tee-heee!

Ireland's Melanie Nocher broke her own Irish Senior 200m Backstroke record as she booked a place in Tuesday's final at the European Swimming Championships at Debrecen in Hungary, writes John Kenny.
Nocher's time of 2:11.68 was good enough to see her through as the 6th fastest qualifier for the final and cut three hundredths of a second off her own Irish best set at the Irish Olympic Trials at the National Aquatic Centre in Dublin back in March.
Nocher swam the morning's heat in a time of 2:13.09, finishing third and qualifying the Ards swimmer eighth fastest into the semi-final.
Although a medal looks beyond the 2008 Irish Olympian, Nocher's real intention will be to try and hit the Olympic A qualifying standard of 2:10.84 in the final.
Three other Irish swimmers were in action on day one of the week-long meet: Bethany Carson finished 37th in the 50m Butterfly (28.43); Karl Burdis finished 28th overall in the 100m Backcrawl (56.43) and Nuala Murphy was 16th in the 400m Individual Medley.
In Tuesday's heats Fiona Doyle, Sycerika McMahon and Shani Stallard all compete in the 100m Breaststroke.
17-year-old McMahon, a two time European junior champion, was just three tenths of a second shy of the Olympic A time in this event at the recent Celtic Tri Nations in Dublin.
Bethany Carson will swim in the heats of the 100m Freestyle.

The installation disks don't seem to allow > me to do that. That's right. > - Does Debian not support installing to umsdos partitions? > - If not, is there a work around to get it working anyway? It is possible to fool the installation process roughly as follows: You need a DOS partition, say /dev/hda1, umssync, and perhaps other things (it's been a while). Replace the boot-floppy kernel with one that has FAT and UMSDOS compiled in. Create a directory 'linux' in the msdos fs on /dev/hda1 and umssync it. During the install process open the shell (alt f2) and: rm -rf /target mkdir /DOS mount -t umsdos /dev/hda /DOS ln -s /DOS/linux /target create a swap file and swapon Follow the rest of the installation procedure, but DO NOT run the make bootable option as LILO will fry the MSDOS boot sector if you are not careful. The /target system is not quite ready, make sure fstab is set up correctly (RW root partition and swap file set up OK). Modify /etc/init.d/boot so that the root partition is never remounted (mount seems very unhappy with pseudo roots). > I've even created a small partition to install Debian to, > installed the base disks, and copied everything to the umsdos > partition (changing /etc/fstab to reflect the new partition).

What messages does it give? As an alternative, you could try my modifications to the boot-floppies package to handle UMSDOS installs. There has just been a new boot-floppies release, so I'll have do some merging before I have a proper set of patches ready. Have a look at ftp://pootle.magd.cam.ac.uk/ if you are interested (patches against boot-floppies 1.2.5). In your other message you mentioned a ZIP drive, can't you format a disk as ext2? Or is that not a possibility for you?

Tom Canada leaves Manitoba for Saskatchewan today to start his second football tour of, er, Canada.
Having a full CFL season under his belt has made a world of difference to the American.
"I have a better understanding of what the game's all about and a better understanding of what 20 games takes out of ya," the defensive end said before leaving for Regina, where the Winnipeg Blue Bombers open their season versus the Roughriders tomorrow night. "I'm just excited. I'm feeling good about the defence, I'm feeling good about the scheme and I'm having fun this year.
"Last year, we had a lot of internal stuff going on at this time. We weren't sure if I'd be here much less than who would be next to me the next day. So, it's nice to be a little more settled down and having some fun."
Last year, of course, Dave Ritchie started the season as a lame-duck head coach and, but for veteran defensive lineman Doug Brown, there were question marks all along the D-line. Canada earned a starting spot early in camp and Elfrid Payton answered an SOS at the other end position three games into the season. Melvin Bradley was finally inserted alongside Brown and later replaced by Joe Fleming. Tomorrow, rookie Gavin Walls and veteran Antwone Young will rotate at the other defensive end spot.
Canada, 25, recorded seven quarterback sacks in the first half of last season -- good enough to be named the club's nominee as rookie of the year. That was even after he hit a wall and did not record a single sack in the second half.
"Yeah, the most games we played in college is 14 and that's if you made it to the national championship, which we never did," said the 6-foot-3, 255-pound California-Berkeley product. "I never played more than 10 games in a season. Last year was like two seasons for me.
"So, I started (training) a little later in the off-season and didn't go crazy. I worked more on stuff that's going to help me with longevity rather than just an explosive 10-game season. I've been taking a lot of advice from the old guys, like Milt (Stegall), (Ryland) Wickman and Dougie (Brown) about how to take care of your body. I used to think the ice tub was for wusses, now I'm in there every day. You've got to maintain yourself mentally and physically."
Canada, by the way, did not spend his off-season bragging that he was playing pro football in a country named after him.
"I tried to keep that out of conversations, to be honest with ya," he said. "But when it came up, everyone said, 'That's weird.' I had a lot of fun last year and I'm hoping for better things this year."
And it will start against the 'Riders tomorrow.
"I kind of like playing Saskatchewan," Canada said. "We had good success out there last year. I like their turf field and it's always exciting to get out there against some other guys. It's going to be nice to play against a new team and get after some quality quarterbacks and some quality offensive linemen."

Portland Trail Blazers president Larry Miller has resigned and will return to his job with Nike, The Oregonian's Jason Quick reported Saturday.
"It felt like it is the right time, and the right thing for me,'' Miller told the Oregon paper.
Minutes after Quick reported the news via Twitter, the Blazers put out a release confirming Miller's exit.
The 61-year-old Miller still had two years remaining on his Blazers contract. He told Blazers owner Paul Allen on Friday that he planned to resign. At Nike, Miller will become president of the Jordan brand, the old position he held from 1999 through 2006, when he joined the Blazers.
"The timing is right," said Miller, according to the Blazers' official release. "We have an excellent general manager in place in Neil Olshey, so I feel the team is on solid ground and headed in the right direction. Off the court, business is great. The Rose Garden is packed every night and the passion of Trail Blazers fans has never been better."
Under Miller's watch, the Blazers began their current streak of 192 consecutive sellouts at the Rose Garden, which dates back to December 2007. Portland also had a streak of three consecutive playoff appearances from 2009-11. The Blazers said that the search for Miller's replacement will begin immediately.
"It is sad to see Larry leaving the Blazers and I want to thank him for his leadership and contributions to the franchise," Allen said in the team's release. "Larry helped manage a period of significant growth and I wish him all the best as he takes on this opportunity."

Sarah Schultz is a nurse who married a farmer and is embracing her role as a farm wife in the Alberta prairies. She's mom to two adorable littles named Braden and Ethan who are knee-deep in trains, trucks, and tractors. She blogs at Nurse Loves Farmer about her family life, faith, her passion for photography, cloth diapering, and breastfeeding.
I don't think many times in life there is a "perfect" moment to making life-changing decisions. When to sell your first house and move into a bigger one? When to start a family? When to add to your family? At least, it was that way for me.
I could always think of more than a few things in my life and on my bucket list that I maybe should be doing before we started our family, but we took the plunge, got pregnant, and now we can't imagine our life without our oldest son. It's such a huge step to take — to become parents, but once we were there we just knew the timing was perfect.
We always knew that if we were able to, we wanted more than one child. Now we were at that crossroads again of "when"? Wait another year? Have them close together? We decided to aim to have our children three years apart and it it happened almost exactly that way! This age gap has been perfect for us because my oldest son Braden got to be our one and only for almost three years.
Since he was our one and only for quite a long time, I was nervous when I got pregnant again. Would I love this baby as much as Braden? How could I possibly love another baby as much as I have loved my first?Would Braden hate me for bringing another baby into our family of three? I know that I'm not alone in those feelings, and there's no way to tell what's going to happen and how you're going to feel until it does.
In October 2012, I had the surprise of my life when I woke up shortly after midnight on the 16th when my water had broke. I was not expecting this at all, as it was almost three weeks before our due date! No more time to stew over how our family would transition from three to four... off we were to have our baby!
The first time Braden met his baby brother Ethan is something I will always remember. Braden was very overstimulated by the hussle and bustle that was still going on in our hospital room when he came marching in wearing his "Big Brother in Charge" shirt. He actually didn't pay much attention to his baby brother — good or bad. We took our first family picture of four and my husband took Braden home and left me with Ethan in the hospital for our mandatory one night stay. I wasn't disappointed at all in my oldest's reaction — or lack thereof, I was just happy that he wasn't upset!
The next morning when my husband and Braden came to pick us up to take us home, it happened: Braden came into the room and immediately asked where "Baby Efan" was. Consider my mommy heart bursting with love and happiness. I had two perfectly healthy sons, and my oldest was accepting his youngest as his brother.
Over the next few weeks Braden made sure that he knew where baby Ethan was every morning so he could come and give him a hug and a kiss. Braden has adjusted wonderfully as a big brother and has luckily not shown any signs of jealousy towards his little brother.
Here are some tips on preparing your child for a new baby:
-Reading books about becoming a big brother or sister.
-Letting them feel your pregnant belly when the baby is active and teaching them about a baby growing inside.
-Explaining to them that someone will come and take care of them when mommy and daddy go to the hospital to have the baby.
-Have a small gift bag with presents from the baby when they come to the hospital.
-Make one-on-one time with them when baby naps.
-As baby gets older or is able to be left for short amounts of time, take your older child(ren) out for a little date with Mommy.

In the middle of the night,
When the moon shines bright,
A creature stirs with a terrible bite,
And his name is Spoonfang.
This vampire with a spoony face,
Has developed quite the taste,
For creatures of the pudding race,
Has the greedy Spoonfang.
So when the stars through dark clouds peek,
Into the kitchen he will creep,
And a tasty snack he'll sneak,
Will the crafty Spoonfang.
Mousse and trifle, cake of cheese,
Ice-cream left in the deep freeze,
He's had a bite of each of these,
Has the naughty Spoonfang.
But tonight he's set his eyes,
Not on mother's tasty pies,
But on Gran's birthday surprise,
A gateau all for Spoonfang.
And so he creeps along the floor,
Tip-toes to the kitchen door,
But someone else is there before,
The bold and daring Spoonfang.
Count Spatula! The greatest Pudding Vampire of them all!
Both the vampires get a fright,
Their screams echo through the night,
And someone switches on the light,
On Spatula and Spoonfang.
Mother tuts and shakes her head,
Sends son and father back to bed,
Neither vampire has been fed,
Not Spatula nor Spoonfang.
Maybe there's a little Pudding vampire in all of us!

The Bangles' "Walk Like an Egyptian" is playing at my favorite pizza joint in Portland as I tell my kids, age 10 and 13, that I'm going to Cairo.
"As in, Egypt?" one of them asks. "Why?"
To see what an Arab revolution looks like-up close.
I know I can't walk like an Egyptian. But I can watch Egyptians walk like an Egyptian. Watch them talk, post, march, strike, agitate, organize. Watch them take control of an ancient modern country that hasn't really been theirs for a very long time.
There's an elegance to the timing. I first went to Egypt 20 years ago. Having graduated from journalism school, I landed an internship at "Cairo Today," a publication for visiting businessmen and tourists. Imagine a booster magazine for someplace like Tampa - full of fluff about old-car shows and how to get the most from your visit to the pyramids - but with way more typos.
That time, I got lucky-in the way journalists mean "lucky." I graduated in May of 1990 - a time when the jinn of Mid-East politics were asleep. I left for Cairo in November. In between, Saddam invaded Kuwait. The U.S. was embarked on its first troop surge-the first of many-and the Israelis were on red alert. Middle East governments were picking sides. And I got dropped into a Cairo newsroom with a war coming on.
I didn't see much war, in fact. The closest I got was a few days in Gaza watching people drive past in donkey carts laden with plastic sheeting to protect their homes from gas attack. That's fine - war correspondent isn't something I've ever wanted on my resume.
But I did get to see, and live in, Cairo in a time of crisis. Economic crisis, especially: tourism dried up, and businesses - from taxi drivers and street vendors, to chic restaurants and airlines - suffered terribly. As the troops poured in, the tourists flowed out, picking Club Med Martinique over the Hilton Luxor for their next winter getaway.
And yet, the country was never - not for one afternoon - dangerous or dicey or even unsettled. At least not for a Westerner, or an Egyptian who kept whatever negative opinions he might have about his government to himself. President (nearly-for-life) Mubarak had cast his lot with the Americans - allies in his cold peace with Israel and sponsors of his army's billion-dollar gravy train. The police and army confidently walked the streets and checked IDs; the ministry bureaucrats made you wait in line and file in triplicate to visit a tomb or speak to another ministry's minister; the tour guides and camel drivers asked, shouted, begged and pleaded for baksheesh. Life went on as normal. On the surface.
Below the surface - not so much. One afternoon, an American photographer friend and I wandered into a warren of narrow streets in a neighborhood called Shobra. This was - probably still is - one of the most crowded and impoverished human settlements on earth. Just a short taxi ride from the mansions of the wealthy and the hotels of the Egypt-on-$1,000-a-day set, women cooked on open fires in the streets as barefoot children capered in piles of garbage nearby. The "plumbing" was an open sewer down the middle of the street.
We reached a square, and a large group of men - most with no work to do, no job to go to-crowded round. They urged us to sit with them, bought us tea, offered us bananas. "Saddam-yes, we like him, very good" one man said to nods all around. "Kuwait is too rich. Arab countries need more like Saddam." Another said: "Show us your camera." We watched nervously as they passed a $1,200-Nikon around. After oohs and ahhs it was politely handed back.
To me, this was Egypt at its best; and also at its essence. Generous, open, irrepressible, unabashed. Proud, but stoic - making do with so little, and with so little hope of getting more. And biding its time. Waiting for the right moment to demand its due from remote, repressive, well-heeled rulers who lived a world-and mere blocks-away.
It seems that perhaps Egypt's time has come. I've headed back to see how the Egyptians are walking now.
