Sending an old jazzer to review a bluegrass concert could produce interesting results, but this old jazzer left the Napa Valley Opera House Tuesday evening at least partially agreeing with a statement by mandolinist David Grisman: "There's a fine line between bluegrass and jazz."

Early this month, Catholic Charities San Francisco changed its policies, to no longer directly place children with same-sex couples. Instead, it will refer interested parties to California Kids Connection and Family Builders by Adoption in Oakland, both of which give children to same-sex couples. According to Catholic teaching, gay adoption is immoral, but San Francisco Archbishop George Niederauer sees no conflict between the new policy and Church teaching.
