The flip-side of the vacuous romanticizing of the innocence of childhood is the callous disregard for it, the impersonal trampling to death of it by forces concerned once, only, and always with self, self, self. as you have done so often, you have offered us the gift of your remarkable perspective. this newborn has an older sister who is being competently cared for by the mother's parents. our county is now going through a scandal with our children's services agency where a callous overpaid arrogant director has been sacked. i have few hopes that the new coup leader will markedly improve the situation.

thx.

thank you. i have forwarded the information. some complicating facts. the 21 year old suicidal methadone using mother asked the doctor to tie her tubes. the doctor refused; she was "too young."

i found this lengthy bbc special series on cyber war and its future well worth the time--- My link

my feeling, with no experience in these things, is that the mother be forced to give up her baby. i wouldn't wish the role of a mother onto my 65 year old sister. has anyone here had heroin babies in their family??? how was it dealt with???

i was trying to find an official u.s. gov. pie chart for spending and apparently didn't succeed. there was and is no intent to make a political comment with it.

the legendary vin scully is currently announcing the houston at dodger game on mlb-tv, which is free for many folks.

the live recording that the bley/haden/motian trio in montreal on the gitanes label as part of a haden festival is magnificent. the piano was great, they were in unusually rare, even for them, creative form that night.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/michelinemaynard/2012/05/24/what-new-orleans-can-expect-when-its-newspaper-goes-away/ Call it Black Thursday for newspapers across the South. In New Orleans, as well as Mobile, Huntsville and Birmingham, Ala., daily newspapers will be no more. Newhouse Newspapers, a division of Advance Publications, confirmed in memos to the papers’ staffs that they now will publish three days a week, with an increased emphasis on the Web. The news reached the staff of the fabled New Orleans Times-Picayune first (read the memo here). A similar memo went out to staff members at the Huntsville Times, Mobile Press-Register and the Birmingham News. But the news was biggest in New Orleans, where the Times-Pic has won accolades and admiration for its determined coverage of Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath, as well as its long history in documenting the Civil Rights movement, corruption and changes in daily life across the not-yet restored city. In New Orleans, a new digitally focused company, called Nola Media Group, will be formed to develop “new and innovative ways to provide news and information to the company’s online and mobile readers.” David Carr, who broke the story in today’s New York Times, says Newhouse will embrace the model that it used in Ann Arbor, Mich. That means a great Web focus and publishing a print edition a few times a week — in the case of the southern Newhouse papers, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.

what's it like to work? i have ve been retired 5 years, and i mean retired.

MY LINK "Anonymity is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, the United States was founded, in part, thanks to Thomas Paine's anonymously written, pro-revolution pamphlet Common Sense. On the other hand, 12-year-olds who post anonymously on the internet can be rather unpleasant and cause real problems by cyberbullying. Whether you think the good outweighs the bad, this news is troubling indeed: A far-reaching bill introduced in the New York State Senate could end the practice of posting online once and for all."

awesome!!!!! thx.

agreed--goold and riley are a great combo. archives are available. for $5 a month, i can't complain. last thursday, the veteran saxophonist ralph bowen quartet performed. their second set was OMG mind blowing--very rarely have i heard such complex, madly swinging, listenable music.
