Did you get the idea to blog from a certain former co-worker? No. Every artist loves their own format. I certainly didn’t think this was mine. Are you and Rosie talking? We e-mail back and forth on a limited scale. Does your son support Hillary? That was a joke I made. Senator Clinton sent Taylor a personalized note after his birth, which was very nice. I jokingly said she has his vote....

According to a new batch of polls, Warren is steadily in third or fourth place behind competitors Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg. But the top tier candidates are all so closely bunched together that it’s still anyone’s race. The most recent Monmouth University poll of likely Iowa caucusgoers showed Biden in the lead with 23 percent support followed by Sanders with 21 percent and Buttigieg with 16 percent support....

The Emmys have always had a soft spot for nominating programs in their swan-song season, so no one was surprised when “The Sopranos” came up the big winner this year, earning nods for best drama series, best lead actor (James Gandolfini), best lead actress (Edie Falco) and a trio of nominations in the supporting-actor categories (Aida Turturro, Lorraine Bracco and Michael Imperioli). “The Sopranos” also nearly swept the writing category, taking three of the five nominations handed out....

The team was able to keep its hopes of an undefeated run through the Hex alive, rallying to beat Trinidad and Tobago 3-1. In many ways, it was the same story we’ve seen throughout much of qualification with coach Juan Carlos Osorio’s teams. Mexico started strong, then hit a period where it didn’t seem to be connecting. Then, behind a furious late run, it ended up with a scoreline that maybe did reflect Mexico’s performance on the day, even if the worry that came with the thought of losing to the worst team left in qualification didn’t translate....
