AdvertisementWhenever we're with my mother-in-law, she asks my son and daughter-in-law when they'll have kids. While some part of me likes the idea of being a grandparent, I don't mind if it never happens. Without fail, every time we get together, my dear mother-in-law asks, "When are you having children?" I also swore I would not ask them about having children and have since kept that promise. In that, I'm sure I'm like every other parent, wishing for a crystal ball to allay anxieties and lost sleep over what cannot be foreseen or controlled.

A lottery is being held on Monday to determine who will be the 16 people who get to witness what happens next in the case of the Menendez Brothers, who are serving life sentences for murdering their parents in 1989. The drawing will take place between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. Pacific time, in front of the Van Nuys Courthouse West, the Superior Court of Los Angeles County said. The seats for 16 people, in a county of more than 10 million residents, will be allocated just one hour before the status hearing is set to begin at 10:30 a.m. The court occasionally holds public lotteries “when seating is limited and public interest is high,” a court spokesperson said in an email. Erik and Lyle Menendez killed their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, more than 35 years ago in their Beverly Hills mansion.

President Trump is for you” — Democrats are now debating how much the issue of trans rights hurt them and how fast they should retreat from it. The party’s decision to focus on the issues that matter to most voters, especially reproductive rights, and set trans rights aside is based on a misconception. The two issues can’t be separated, because trans rights don’t just resemble reproductive rights; trans rights are reproductive rights. But opponents of trans rights argue that there is an area in which the consequences can be nothing short of catastrophic, and that area is reproduction. Both of them have repeatedly expressed fear that the treatment they received as teenagers could have rendered them infertile.

However, in 2014, another author, Yukari Iwatani Kane, wrote in "Haunted Empire: Apple After Steve Jobs" that Jobs told Apple employees in 2010 that a TV set wasn't happening. The lesson Munster learned about a company assembling a team and putting resources behind projects that may remain on the shelf continues to apply. Still, Munster's lesson didn't stop him from making a plea for CEO Tim Cook to bring the Apple TV to shelves.
