it did have balance. 4:00 the babysitter whebt home and that was jane's time. and we went to the park, played games, sang silly songs until she went to sleep. by that time, i was ready to go back to the books so i regarded each part of my life as a respite from the other. >> and this was a time period when a lot of people in society assumed that the mother would be primarily responsible for the children, including some school administrates when they called home to discuss their children's activities. would you share how you handled getting a lot of phone calls? >> my son, who is today a truly fine human was what his teachers called hyper active, and i called him lively. i would get called literally once a month to come to the school to hear about my lively son's latest escapade. i went down regularly and was lectured by the teacher, the school principal. one day i was particularly weary. i was sitting in my office at columbia and i responded, this child has two parents. please alternate calls. it's his father's turn. so marty went down to the school, and he was

my wife jane and i had recently become married. we had a child when they worked at the white house, and barbara bush couldn't have been more gracious. she has been e a different ever since. in fact, a few years later when i first ran for public office, i ran for r the united states houe of representatives in cincinnati, ohio, second congressional district of ohio. she came to campaign for me. this was early in 1993, recalled it and i connect you george h. w. bush, 41, had lost his reelection. we did a political event in cincinnati. we took her to skyline chili which is a famous place in my hometown and all-around a southwest ohio. although skyline chili and cincinnati chili is an acquired taste. she at least acted like she really enjoyed it. she wore the bib, and people loved it. maybe most important way for me while she was there she cut a radio ad for me. in that way to achieve said i enjoy having skyline chili with rob portman when i'm in cincinnati. she said other things that were kind and, frankly, as a look back on that race,

hi, i'm jane seymour. have you ever had a moment in your life when you find something that changes everything? well, my epiphany was an anti-aging body treatment system that actually made my skin look years younger! it's called crepe erase, and it's the easiest two step system that can transform the old- looking, crepe-papery skin we begin to see at a certain age, into visibly smoother, firmer, more beautiful skin, that looks as young as you feel! so if you're embarrassed by crepey-looking knees, arms, or hands that make you want to hide, this is your chance to feel confident and beautiful in your own skin again. (female announcer) but what exactly is crepey skin? crepey skin basically comes down to two things: one is losing that elastin and collagen. they're complex proteins that make up the backbone, the matrix of your skin in the dermis. number two is we lose the ability to retain moisture in our skin. it's dry. it's loose. it's lost its volume. it's very similar to crepe paper. i do feel like my aging

i went home and that was jane's time. we played games, sang songs until she went to sleep and by that time i was ready to go back to the books. i regarded each part of my life as a respirte from the other. period when atime lot of people assumed the mother would be primarily responsible for the children, including school administrators when they called home to discuss their children's activities. could you share how you handled getting a lot of phone calls? my son, who isg: wasy a truly fine human what teachers call hyperactive. i called him lively. i would get calls once a month to come to the school to hear about my lively son's latest i was lectured by the .chool principal one day i was sitting in my office at columbia and i responded that the child has two parents, please alternate calls. it is his father's turn. marty went down to the school and was confronted with three stone faces telling him your son stole the elevator. it was an old handheld elevator that the operator had gone out ofhave a cigarette, one classmat

jane, let's start with you.re getting mixed reaction to the meeting from democrats this morning. let's listen. >> i think we should all admit that it's good not bad that the trump administration is trying to do some work ahead of this meeting. >> director pompeo is the wrong person to be engaging in diplomacy. we need a secretary of state, and not a cia director doing that work. >> i think it is good news for diplomacy and i'm glad that the meeting took place. >> so the question is this. make pomp mike pompeo's nomination is running into a few bumps. but there are a few questions. yesterday we discussed the fact that generally speaking these types of meetings reward or down the line of negotiations. it was important pointing out the kind of regime we're dealing with and not much progress has been made. good he went or premature? >> i agree with adam schiff. by the way, i had his job as a ranking member on house intelligence for a long time and was in pyongyang 20 years ago on an intelligence committee visit and

errol louis and kelly jane torrance. thank you both for sticking around here.t to reference a couple of things he said. errol, first of all, regarding jon tester. he said i know things about tester that i could say too and if i said them he would never be elected again. is he going to have to live up to that and do those kinds of really -- it sounds like a threat. does it affect tester going forward as we look to midterms? >> it depends on whether or not the president actually has any relevant information that voters in montana would care about. i'd say it's a coin toss. we have heard the president do this before where he says comey better hope i don't have any tapes and i might have information on obama. he has made sort of a career out of making these kind of unsubstantiated charges and half the time they fizzle out and the other half they are not relevant. i don't think tester will lose any sleep with the caveat like any politician he may have some embarrassing information that somehow has escaped the notice of voters for all of thets many years. fountain pr

both jane goodall and jane jacobs wentac because they thout that is how they would separate themselves. maybe the most unbelievable, while in many states if they were matched clothing, she could be arrested. there was a story i read where a woman walked into the courthouse to pay her husband's parking ticket and was ordered out because she was wearing pants. i thought how is it that these outsiders were able to make inroads and change the way we think about the fields at a time when no one is listening to women so that became the kind of connective tissue i was looking for as i wasas researching becae all along they kept having these repetitive patterns. like a lot of people i wasn't sure if i had read silent springs. when i read it i realized this is difficult stuff and she made it so eloquent that this bad news is being delivered in a way that you are able to get through it. then i realized it's because the same language rachel carson is using that describe describes tm and jane jacobs said it isn't just what the buildings look like, bu that there was a human ecology and if you knock
