Lily Tomlin, 74, and her partner — personal and professional — of 42 years, writer Jane Wagner, 78, married on New Year's Eve in Los Angeles, Tomlin's rep tells People.com afterLiz Smith tweeted the news: "My wish is that their happiness will be as great as their combined talents."

Tomlin has never really hidden her sexual orientation but she hasn't been shouting it from the rooftops, either — "Listen, I just think nobody was ever really interested in my sex life. I may weep," she told the Advocate in 2009.
In that interview, she did reveal that she turned down an offer by Time magazine to come out on its cover in 1975. "I don’t think anybody was coming out yet then, and I frankly was not interested in being typed as the gay celebrity. I think what Ellen (DeGeneres) did was incredibly brave, and she paid a price for it — and she did it about 20 years after I got that offer."
Wagner and Tomlin collaborated on Tomlin's Tony-winning "The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe" and her film "The Incredible Shrinking Woman."

Yes, only a Heterosexual Institution can bring them REAL love. 43 years together means NOTHING, unless they get into a Heterosexual type of Institution. Pity

Good Job Geraldo Rivera and WABC New York--Conservative Talk Radio Without Hate

The Show is good--it's plain talk--the people call in and say what they think.

 The folks of New York love to call in and talk to Geraldo and that is all there is.  He listens, lets them talk and then he says his opinion, also.

 The listener gets to hear the vibe of the citizens of New York, or the folks of the US, we get to hear what Geraldo thinks about the issues and we get to hear Juan Williams, Bo Dietl, Ann Coulter--it's a good show.

 One needs diversion to complete housework........

 It is interesting conversation--I can listen and do the dishes.

 What is going on in America--tune in to WABC-New York and I know what is happening this morning on the news.

 The big headline--no one is shouting and we get to hear both sides of the issue.

 Really, this is the best news-talk show on radio today--both sides, divergent views without anger--it works for me.

 Geraldo said today he thinks the traffic hold-up issue of Chris Christie--reportedly blocking traffic on a busy New York bridge in retaliation for not supporting him for re-election will be a major game-changer for the Christie election.

 He thinks this could effectively end his bid for presidency.

 Juan Williams joined in to say it goes against his policy of being on the straight and narrow regardless of party.  

 Geraldo Rivera recently changed his format, this past Monday, to a more local type show with video.  One can watch him in his office and soon they may be dashing around town.  The first day the video was a little sporadic but now it seems to work just fine.  

 here is a link to the show:

Monday--Jan 6--Eileen Ng talks about the dipping dots on Wall Street

Monday--Jan 6--Eileen Ng talks about the dipping dots on Wall Street


World stocks in the red ahead of US, China data

Associated Press 
By EILEEN NG6 hours ago

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — World markets were mostly in the red Monday, opening the week on a cautious note ahead of the release of data from the U.S. and China that will reflect the pace of growth in the world's top two economies.
In Europe, Britain's FTSE 100 dipped 0.2 percent to 6,717.22 while Germany's DAX shed 0.2 percent to 9,415.22. France's CAC-40 was almost flat at 4,248.29.
Investors are waiting to scrutinize the minutes of the Federal Reserve's December meeting amid expectations it might accelerate the pace of reducing its monetary stimulus on the back of rising economic momentum. Manufacturing, payrolls and trade balance data due this week will reveal if U.S. economic recovery can be sustained.
In China, trade, inflation and loans data due later in the week will color regional sentiment. Two surveys last week showed manufacturing activity has weakened in December, which analysts said pointed to a downturn in business cycle.
"China will be an interesting read this week. The debate about how China is tracking will define its 2014 — talk will be about whether the 'hard landing' talk of the last four years continues, if the central government is moderating growth and whether the small steps it has taken toward a more liberalized, freer trading economy continue in 2014," said Evan Lucas, market strategist for IG in Melbourne, Australia.
Credit Agricole CIB in Hong Kong said it was increasingly clear that China's growth has peaked and entering an economic downturn, which will hurt regional exports.
"When China sneezes, markets worry that the whole region will catch a cold," its economist Dariusz Kowalczyk said in a commentary.
On Wall Street, futures pointed to a weak start. The Standard & Poor's 500 index futures fell 0.1 percent while the Dow Jones industrial average eased 0.01 percent.
Earlier in Asia, China's benchmark Shanghai Composite Index tumbled 1.9 percent to 2,043.01, extending losses from last week. Tokyo's Nikkei shed 2.4 percent to 15.908.88 and Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell 0.6 percent to 22,684.15. Benchmarks in Singapore, Indonesia, New Zealand and Australia also declined. However, South Korea's Kospi bucked the trend to add 0.4 percent to 1,953.28.
Benchmark oil for February delivery rose 26 cents a barrel to $94.22 in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell $1.48 to close at $93.96 on Friday.

Cute Bobby Rydell: Australia and Interview


Hi Everyone,

INTERVIEW WORTH WATCHING
Attached is a link to an interview Bobby did in December for a Philadelphia cable station.  It's one of the most comprehensive interviews Bobby's ever done about his career and life so if you have a few minutes sit down and enjoy!



2014 TOUR DATES (More to follow)
Bobby is off to the West Coast in January, Australia in February for his 22nd tour down under, and lots more so check it out....



BOBBY INDUCTED INTO GOLDMINE MAGAZINE'S HALL OF FAME


WORDS FROM BOBBY IN THE NEW YEAR: 

Just wanted to take this opportunity to send out my love to each one of you who have supported my career and prayed for me over the last few years during my health challenges. I'm feeling wonderful and working as much as I ever have.  It's been a gift.   My organ donor saved 8 lives, including mine.  I hope you will consider being an organ donor yourself if you are not already.  It takes just a few moments to register online with your local DMV or when you renew your drivers license.  It is the best gift you can ever give, the Gift of Life.

When I  walk out on that stage today I feel all of you right with me.  Thanks for the love. 

Love you all right back,

BOBBY
