Lisa Marie welcomes birth of twin girls

LOS ANGELES --- Lisa Marie Presley is a mom again.

A publicist says the 40-year-old singer gave birth Tuesday to twin girls, whose names were not released. One baby weighed 5 pounds, 15 ounces, and the other came in at 5 pounds, 2 ounces.

A statement released Saturday says Ms. Presley gave birth by Caesarean section. She lives in the Los Angeles area and the publicist says the births took place somewhere on the West Coast but won't provide details.

The statement says "babies and mom are happy and healthy and resting at home."

Ms. Presley is the daughter of Elvis Presley and is married to music producer Michael Lockwood .

She has a 19-year-old daughter and a 15-year-old son by a previous marriage.

Graham home after brief hospital stay

ASHEVILLE, N.C. --- Evangelist Billy Graham was released from the hospital Saturday, sore and bruised but not seriously injured, after he tripped and fell over one of his dogs at his North Carolina home, hospital officials said.

The 89-year-old stayed overnight at Mission Hospital in Asheville with discomfort and bruising.

X-rays showed no broken bones, spokeswoman Merrell Gregory said in a news release.

The hospital offered to let the Rev. Graham go home after the X-rays, but the evangelist decided to stay overnight because it was so late, Graham spokesman Larry Ross said.
