Last Night
Sunny and breezy.
We made the trek to the Valley & got to see Uncle Jimmy as well as attend Fred's birthday party.
The kid knows there's a pool at Fred's, but swore there was no way he was going swimming & insisted his bathing suit be left at home.
There were other kids, in the pool, and well, he ended up swimming in his clothes.

Tours Voting Rights Landmark
Drew Barrymore
Actress Drew Barrymore toured Selma, the birthplace of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, as part of a documentary she's filming on the importance of voting.
The actress visited the National Voting Rights Museum on Thursday before traveling 20 miles to the tiny community of Suttle, where she met with children involved in youth leadership.
Barrymore and her crew taped interviews with state Sen. Hank Sanders and his wife, activist Faya Rose Toure, at the youth leadership center.

'The Red Piano'
Elton John
"The Red Piano" is generating plenty of green. Sir Elton John's three-year stand at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas is notching sellouts, with 15 dates added to the 2004 run.
John's deal at the Colosseum originally called for 75 shows over three years. Sources say his guarantee for the run exceeds $50 million.
Since it began Feb. 13, the engagement has grossed $14.5 million from 19 sellouts that drew 75,276 people. At John's current pace of $763,157 per night, the year's gross will exceed $30 million.

Scraps Plans For Hillbilly 'Reality'Show
NBC
NBC has scuttled a proposed reality TV show that would have followed an Appalachian family's adjustments to a ritzy lifestyle in Beverly Hills.
Plans for the program had caused an outcry among residents of Appalachia, who saw it as an affront to the region. But NBC spokeswoman Shannon Jacobs cited "creative reasons," not the protests, as the reason the show wasn't pursued.
After months of outrage over a similar reality series CBS planned, NBC managed to cast and shoot a similar show without attracting widespread attention.

Celebrates 30 Years Together
Rush
Geddy Lee didn't know it at the time, but on his 21st birthday -- July 29, 1974 -- he and his bandmates hit a career lottery.
That was the day Neil Peart joined Lee and Alex Lifeson in their band Rush. When Peart replaced drummer John Rutsey, he cemented a lineup for the Toronto-based trio that has lasted for 30 years, with Lifeson on guitar and Lee on bass and lead vocals.
"It's beyond being brothers, it's beyond being a family, it's beyond a marriage," Lifeson says of Rush's personal chemistry. "It's like a whole different kind of relationship that we have. It's so unique that it really clicked with us. We've seen so many other bands disintegrate because of ego problems that sort of thing. That never existed with us."
For a lot more, Rush

Casablanca
Rick's Cafe
There's a new gin joint in town, and now everybody comes to Rick's. In homage to the movie "Casablanca," a former U.S. diplomat has opened a Rick's Cafe in this bustling port city. But you won't find Sam at the keyboard - these days, the pianist's name is Issam.
The new Rick's has the same warm atmosphere as the Hollywood original. It's a white villa near the port, with palm trees flanking the door. Inside are arched passageways and traditional hanging lamps of colored glass.
The elegant restaurant, which debuted in March, is open for lunch and dinner seven days a week. A typical meal costs around $30.

The Las Vegas Monorail passes the under-construction Wynn Las Vegas hotel and casino in Las Vegas, April 20, 2004. The Las Vegas Monorail was supposed to be whisking tourists by now between some of the Strip's biggest hotel-casinos and the Convention Center. It isn't. Instead, empty cars are being tested on the elevated rail while administrators say postponements from January to March to summer have been for routine safety testing.

Moonlights in Fishnet Tights
French Policeman
A French policeman faces trial in a police court for driving under the influence after he was stopped at the wheel of his car drunk and wearing only a pair of fishnet tights, a prosecutor says.
The man admitted he was a part-time prostitute after fellow police chased him through the Bois de Boulogne, a wooded area on the outskirts of Paris reputed as a nighttime hangout of transsexual prostitutes, in the early hours of Thursday.
The policeman said he needed the extra income. If convicted, he could lose his driver's licence and be fined.

'Character Counts'
(Parallel Universe Alert)
Karl Rove
Resident Bush's chief political adviser told graduates of the Rev. Jerry Falwell's Liberty University on Saturday to judge leaders on the basis of character.
America needs people who have "the moral clarity and courage to do what's right, regardless of consequence, fashion or fad," Karl Rove said.
"You either have values ingrained in your heart and soul that will not change with the wind or you don't," he said.
Rove also reminded the 2,041 graduates to pay off their credit cards. He advised them that when they go to job interviews, "don't act like you're smarter than the person you're interviewing with. Even if you are."
Rove, who said he never earned a college degree, was presented an honorary doctorate of humanities by Falwell for his "commitment to conservative ideas."

In Memory
Barney Kessel
Barney Kessel, a jazz guitarist who played in number of celebrated bands in the 1940s and enjoyed a long career as a studio musician, has died, friends said.
Kessel died of brain cancer at his home in San Diego on Thursday. He was 80 and had been in poor health since suffering a stroke 12 years ago.
The Oklahoma-born Kessel began his career as a teenager when he toured with a number of black dance bands in the state.
In 1942 he moved to Los Angeles and continued touring with the bands of Artie Shaw, Charlie Barnet and Benny Goodman. Over the next decade, he earned a reputation as being an extremely versatile musician, and was frequently voted the most popular jazz guitarist in music magazine polls.
Kessel also played as a sideman for Elvis Presley, Ricky Nelson, the Beach Boys and other rock musicians. In 1944 he appeared in the classic jazz film "Jammin' the Blues."
He began a second career as a studio musician to help pay bills, but returned to jazz full-time in the 1970s.

In Memory
Alexandre Minkowski
Alexandre Minkowski, a world-renowned doctor who pioneered infant health studies in France and fought in the resistance in World War II, has died in Paris at the age of 88.
French President Jacques Chirac paid tribute on Saturday to a man he said was "one of the consciences of the 20th century," a great doctor, scientist, and founder of French neonatal research.
Born in Paris on December 5, 1915, Minkowski was a pediatrician, clinical doctor and researcher who built Paris's Port-Royal maternity hospital into a world-famous neonatal center and carried out studies into infant cot deaths.
As a Jew he was a victim of anti-Semitic persecution during the German occupation of France during World War II. He joined the resistance movement in 1941 and was awarded the Resistance medal and the Croix de Guerre after the war.
That did not prevent him, however, from opposing Israel's war against Lebanon in June 1982. He also fought to protect children in war zones from Vietnam to Palestine.
Close to left-wing political figures like Pierre Mendes-France and Michel Rocard, Minkowski advised Medecins sans Frontieres (Doctors without Borders) founder Bernard Kouchner when he became minister for humanitarian action in 1988-91, and Brice Lalonde when he was environment minister.
Minkowski was elected in regional polls representing the environment party, Generation Ecologie, in Paris in 1992, but he quit the party the next year calling it a shambles. In 1995 he supported Chirac's decision to resume French nuclear tests.
Decorated with the Legion of Honor in 2002, he published numerous works including a book of reflections, "Memoires Turbulents."
He died of heart disease on Friday at the Invalides hospital in Paris.
