Next week, Ecco/HarperCollins will publish My First New York, a greatly expanded collection. Here, from the book, are a few new entriesthe early adventures of three writers plus an actress, an editor, and a famous former call girl in the big city.
By Nora Ephron Arrived 1962
I moved to New York City the day I graduated from Wellesley. I’d found a job a week earlier by going to an employment agency on West 42nd Street. I told the woman there that I wanted to be a journalist, and she said, How would you like to work at Newsweek? and I said fine. At the Newsweek interview, I said I hoped to become a writer, and the man who interviewed me assured me that women weren’t writers at Newsweek. It would …

Actress JULIANNE MOORE urges married women not to follow her character’s lead in new film CHLOE – and hire hookers to trap potential cheating husbands.
The Hours star insists it’s always best to confront your partner if you suspect infidelity – before turning to others for help.
In Chloe, Moore hires a prostitute, portrayed by Amanda Seyfried, to test her husband (Liam Neeson).
But the actress hopes suspicious women don’t take the movie home with them.
She says, “Having been married for a long time and having friends who were married a long time I can’t tell you the phone calls I’ve gotten from somebody saying, ‘Listen, I have to talk to you about this because I think he’s doing X.’
“You say to them, ‘Have you talked to him about it?’ and they haven’t. I think women do that a lot. I think we turn to our friends and say, ‘He was out really late? Do you think he’s seeing somebody?’

Dems drop ‘deem and pass’ plan
Wire servicesLocal News – March 21, 2010 – 9:57am
WASHINGTON With tea party demonstrators rallying outside to protest the legislation, the House Rules Committee chaired by Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-Fairport, dropped a controversial plan that would have “deemed” Senate-approved health care legislation passed as part of a resolution setting rules of debate. The maneuver had been seen as a way to allow Democrats to avoid voting on the bill.
During the debate, Rep. Joe Barton, R-Texas, pleaded with Slaughter to allow separate votes on the underlying Senate bill and the fixes.
“This process corrupts and prostitutes the system,” he said.
Slaughter chastised Barton, a
leader on health care, and said his party had “opted out” of cooperating on the legislation. “We have to get on with it,” she said.

Ms. Pelosi said she would not allow separate votes on abortion or other controversial issues. “Not on abortion, not on public option, not on single-payer, not on anything,” she said.
Behind the scenes, Ms. Pelosi was working aggressively to address the concerns of anti-abortion Democrats. She met with at least three of those lawmakers — Representatives Christopher Carney and Kathy Dahlkemper of Pennsylvania and Steve Driehaus of Ohio — none of whom had publicly committed their vote.
Before Democrats decided to take a direct vote on the Senate health care bill, Representative Joe L. Barton, Republican of Texas, described the plans to approve it without a direct vote as “a sleight-of-hand subterfuge” that would allow lawmakers to avoid accountability.
“This process corrupts and prostitutes the system” and could “unleash a cultural war” over the legislation, Mr. Barton said.

Her movies often stink (anyone feel like watching Speed 2: Cruise Control or The Net?) but put Sandy, as we like to call her, in front of the media and a microphone and she is a star, shooting from the hip with wit, giving honest answers, not shy about poking fun at herself or blasting reporters if their questions are stupid.
You don’t mess with Sandy.
If you cross this beauty, expect to suffer the consequences.
That brings us to grease monkey James.
As we all know, James is the recently inducted member of the “Caught With Your Pants Down Club”, joining president of the CWYPDC Tiger Woods, treasurer John Edwards and secretary Shane Warne.
James apparently was hooking up with Michelle “Bombshell” McGee, an Amish-raised stripper with so many tattoos on her body (including her face) she looks like walking wallpaper.

No Parliamentary Shortcut
12:40 am March 21, 2010, by Jamie Dupree
House Democrats on Saturday backed off a controversial plan to approve a Senate health care bill using an arcane parliamentary shortcut and will instead allow a direct vote on both a health care reconciliation bill and a Senate-passed health care bill.
As the House Rules Committee began its Saturday morning on the parameters for the health care debate, every Republican slammed the idea of an indirect vote on that Senate bill.
“This process corrupts and prostitutes the system,” said Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX).
But Democrats led by Rules Committee Chair Rep. Louise Slaughter (D-NY) turned aside such complaints, reminding Republicans that they had used self-executing rules repeatedly when the GOP ran the U.S. House.
A few hours later though, Democrats suddenly changed their tune, announcing that there would be no parliamentary shortcut, that the House would vote directly on the Senate bill.

Retired businessman Randy Simpson, 67, of Seneca, S.C., also said the health bill was just a first step.
“My concerns are about the health-care bill, and the direction it takes us is toward communism, quite frankly,” he said.
At a daylong meeting of the House Rules Committee, members of both parties in a tiny hearing room traded accusations in a session that was often a shouting match.
“You all in the minority know what the American people think,” Representative Alcee Hastings, a Florida Democrat, said loudly and mockingly at Republicans repeatedly saying the public overwhelmingly opposes Mr. Obama’s health bill.
Representative Joe Barton, a Texas Republican, said a tricky voting procedure that Democrats had been contemplating “corrupts and prostitutes the system,” and would “unleash a cultural war in this country.”
