I don't have any kids of my own. and this is really the first time I've had any experience with children whatsoever. One of my nephews has a birthday coming up. and I really want to make it special so that he isn't sad about missing his birthday with his mom. How can I talk to him about this? Do you have any fun activities to suggest? - C.E. Dear C.E.: It's great that a member of the family is there for the kids while their mother is unable to take care of them. and that you obviously care for them. It can be very hard to relate to children. especially when you have little experience. Finding the right balance between treating them with respect and giving them independence. and nurturing and protecting them. is something that parents struggle with throughou t their children's lives. You should talk to your nephew regarding his feeli ngs about spending his birthday away from his mother. Talk to him at an age-appropriate level so that he understands that you care about his feelings and what he has to say. He might even suggest a great idea for a party. or something that he ·s always wanted to do. In terms of suggestions for activities. it depends on the kids' ages and interests and your budget. Contacting local schools. art centers. YMCAs or other clubs that cater to the child's interests can be beneficial. You might find that someone \Vho 's just starting out is more willing to teach a lesson. do atts and crafts or take on ente1taining kids than an established professional. The Internet also is a great resource, as there are endless blogs and Web sites devoted to kids' games and activities . The main thing is to find something your nephew is interested in and will appreciate. and not impose your own ideas about what a birthda) party should be. (c) 2010 by King Feature::.

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution T()l)AY IN HISTORY Today IS Tuesday, Feb. 23, the 54th day of 2010. There are 311 days left in the year. Today's Highlight m History: On Feb. 23, 1945, during World War II, U.S. Marines on lwo Jima captured Mount Suribachi, where they raised the American flag twice. (The second flag-raising was captured in the iconic photograph taken by Joe Rosenthal of The Associated Press.) On this date: In 1836, the siege of the Alamo began in San Antonio, Texas. In 1848, the s1xth president of the United States, John Quincy Adams, d1ed in Washington, D.C. at age 80. In 1861, President-elect Abraham Lincoln arrived secretly in Washmgton to take office, following word of a poss1ble assass1nat1on plot m Baltimore In 1870, Mississippi was readmitted to the Union. In 1927, President Calvin Coolidge signed a bill creating the Federal RadiO Commtssion, forerunner of the Federal Communications Commission. In 1942, the first shelling of the U.S. mainland during World War II occurred as a Japanese submanne fired on . an oil refinery near Santa Barbara, Calif.. causing little damage. In 1954, the first mass inoculation of children against polio with the Salk vaccine began in Pittsburgh. In 1970, Guyana became a republic within the Commonwealth of Nations. In 1981, an attempted coup began in Spain as 200 members of the Civil Guard invaded the Parliament, taking lawmakers hostage. (However, the attempt collapsed 18 hours later.) In 1990, former Salvadoran President Jose Napoleon Duarte died at age 64. Ten years ago: Carlos Santana won eight Grammy awards, mcluding album of the year for "Supernatural," tying the record set by Michael Jackson in 1983 for most trophies in one night Ftve years ago: A jury was selected in Santa Maria, Calif. to dec:de M1chael Jackson's fate on charges that he'd molested a teenage boy at his Neverland Ranch. (Jackson was later acquitted.) President George W. Bush and Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder agreed to turn down the volume on their disagreements about Iraq and Iran. French film star Simone Simon, in her 90s, died in Paris. One year ago: President Barack Obama pledged to dramatically slash the skyrocketing annual budget deficit , as he started to dole out the record $787 billion eco. nomic stimulus package he'd signed the previous week.

GARY ScoTT SMITH CENTER roRvtsloN AND VALUES One of today·s most contentious culture wars is 0\ er the religious commitments of our nation ·s founders. Were most of them orthodox Christians. Jeists. or agnostics'? Scholarly books, college classes. radio tnlk -,hows. and blogs all debate this issue. and the Texas Board of Education recently joined the fray. Because of Texas· large number of stud~nts, its huge educational fund. and its statewide cun·iculum guidelines, lhis board strongly influences what textbooks are published in the United States. Last month the board reviewed th~.: state's social studies curriculum. and its conservative Christian members injected more analysis of religion into the guidelines. including assessment of whether the United States was founded a:-o a Christian nation and how Christian were the founders. Thio.; tssue is so heated that it wa~ the subject of an extensive article m the mo t recent New York Times Maga.dne. titled. "How Christian Were the Founders?"' Conservative Christian authors such as David Barton. Peter Marshall Jr.. and Tim Uti-faye contend that most of the founders were devout Christians who sought to establish a Christian nation. Isaac Kramnick and R. Laurence Moore in "The Godless Constitution"' and Brooke Allen in "Moral Minority: Our Skeptical Founding Fathers'' counter that very few founders were orthodox Christians. They and others often generalize from famous founders. such as George Wa:-.hington . Benjamin Franklin. John Adams, Thomas Jefferson. James Madison. and Thomas Paine. to argue that most founders \\ere deists who wanted strict separation of church and ~tate. The tntth lies between these two positions. Almost every major founder belonged to a Christian congregation. although a sizable nuf!lber of them were not committed Christians whose faith strongly influenced their political philosophy and actions. Two recent books edited by Daniel Dreisbach, Jeffry Morrison. and Mark David Hall "'The Founders on God and Government'" and "The Forgotten founder<.. on Reli2.ion and Public Life'" carefully explained the r.eligious b~ck~rounds. convictions. and contnbutions of numerouc; founders. The) show that many \\ ho played leading roles in the nation ·s Declaration of lnd~pendence. the Continental Congress. and the devismg and ratification of the Conc;titution were devout Christians, as evident in their church attendance. commitment to prayer and _B ible. reading. ?~lief in God\ directton ol earth!\ affa1rs. and conduct. Among others: these books discuss John Witherspoon. James Wilson. Samuel Adams, George Mason. Oliver Ellsworth. Patrick Henry, John Jay. Benjamin Rush, and Roocr Sherman.

(AP) Cuban defector Aroldis Chapman finds the new food and 'language are his biggest challenges as he gets used to pitching in the major leagues. The Cincinnati Reds signed the 21-year-old lefty to a six-year. $30.25 million deal last month and he met the media Monday. with minor league pitching coach Tony Fossas serving as the translator. Chapman said it was very difficult to leave his wife. daughter and the rest of his family behind when he defected last July after arriving in the Netherlands with the Cuban national team. He said he has spoken to his family by phone and hopes they can somehow be reunited. ''lt was a very hard decision.'' Chapman said. "But in Cuba, they told me I had to be brave and make the move:· The Reds. the Athletics and one other team were finalists to sign Chapman. who picked Cincinnati in part because it has I 0 players from Latin America. Chapman doesn't speak English. It was a lot of money for a v.eds team that has limited payroll flexibility.· "It was a big investment. but I think it will pay dividends down the road for us, and maybe sooner rather than later.'' general . manager Walt Jocketty said. The Reds will give Chapman a chance to win a spot in the rotation during spring training. but aren't pushing him. They're giving him as much time as he needs to get acclimated to the ne\v culture and the major I leagues. "We really Jon 't have a timetable. and I don· t • think it's good to have a timetable." Jockctty saiU. "I think we'll find out s we go along." "We're just going to il:t him develop. You don r really know what he capable of yet. You watc1~ him on the mound and vot can see the ability, but w :! don't know until he get~ into a game and faces hit~ ters if he's ready now or it's going to take some time.'' Like his teammates. Chapman has an iPhone. wears gold necklaces and a gold bracelet, and dresses in designer jeans. Asked what he finds the biggest adjustment. Chapman said. "Definitely the food. And the language is very hard.'' So far. Chapman enjoyed spending ti ~ with his teammates. many of whom speak his Ian· guage. Manager Du~ty Baker speaks Spanish. and Fossas was born in Cuba. "'I enjoy being with baseball players and at the field:· Chapman said. "I like the people I've talked to and gotten to know. Once I learn English. I'll be able to get to know my American teammates better." Chapman's fastball \vas clocked at I 00 mph when he pitched for Cuba in the World Baseball Classic a ·year ago.
