p.227, "Men Who Stare At Goats," says he was beaten by a first-class mind.
I found a mailing address and will try to set this up in the sidebar here for it, and the warnings that would go before it, since this criminal fraud-family is already all over my trying to make this arrangement and its with a government group. — I'm moving this unresearched-yet boring-seeming old painting's little copy to this spot because it's connected to what I'd be trying to describe about my difficulties with mail receipt because of all this Armageddon and the fraud-family science fiction-horror situation all over me. Also I think my years of ghost-prisonership non-receipt of responses to my requests for assistance with all this largely comes from some "communications curse" back around 1993, from that disk I'd sent the Clinton Administration that I haven't had a chance to describe much about that here yet. I'd written an "Armageddon is Now" warning-disk based on some trick that had been played on me but the millennium was still just right in front of us, that the trick was a cover-up for that I'd notice and watch out for the Revelation "profit-sees." Etc.
Aug. 5 2019; I'm not sure how I'm going to (be able to) proceed today. It's like the system-goons think this is Infinite Jest II, to all be living off of me. I have to check, "God help" us/me, whatever, about Rod Serling's ejaculations' being used for making some of the major characters of the twentieth century's farce that we're "postmodernly" in now and might likely never be able to get out of, and also of the T.H. Huxley family, his son Leonard's being a stereotype like Nicholas II of Russia and then maybe they made Leonard's son Aldous from the new growth hormones onto T.H.'s ejaculations, maybe onto a sister's ova, sort of a how we got here. Plus I might have to try a letter to the governor in Tallahasee because I have to get out of this particular LURE-trap I'm stranded alone in now because I'm the only one trying to find assistance for getting Earth and human race and biology out of necessitated extinction.
— Fair Use Claimer — If I am remiss in any way I'll straighten it out as soon as I can if I'm contacted about it but, especially now that I've put together about this "Infinite Jest" video cartridge bit, that that symbolizes the pornography-LURE off of me, I can't keep up with all the things I need to do that may or may not require a Permission from one place or another. Hardly anything I do would be out of the Fair Use provisions but some places are more sensitive than others and I don't know where under-retributions might or might not come from. A good example is the Oct. 2008 National Geographic "The Last of the Neanderthals" article that I'd like to use illustrations from because I believe it was part of this "Infinite Jest" theme that's all over every moment of my life, etc.

I think I've found maybe 2 different versions of etchings by Georg Friedrich Schmidt, 1712-75 Berlin, with this same face that are said to be "after Rembrandt," except that the bodies look a little twisted, like maybe scoliosis. They're or it is called "The Persian" but there are a number of different portraits with that same title, this one being the same face as the Man In Oriental Costume, where now I'm reading it's said to be by Rembrandt and not his colleague Govaert Flinck. The NGA cites former employee (George?) Rubinstein as saying that Rembrandt's "The Persian" and the "Man In Oriental Costume" have the same or similar faces. I have to get a permission from the Los Angeles County Museum of Art for use of a copy of the etching which I'm pretty sure they have as public domain but I'd have to check first so I'm working on that. The LACMA is right next door to the "La Brea Tar Pits" on Wilshire Blvd. that I figure figure into all this Prehistory situation alot. From the twisted appearance of the Schmidt picture (maybe one copy is also at the NGA,) I'm thinking that from this self-mass-reproducing business this type had gotten scoliosis.
This is complicated for me, like for all I know the system might have long-ago vote-decided that I'd be manipulated to Houston so they can do some of that sneak-holocausting off of me here. Then there's some similar aspect where the underworld bums might have vote-decided that they should take any "donations" people might want to make for me for the upkeep of these many, many fraud-family beings they've grown from somehow-gotten reproductive matter of mine, that it's fair for the underground to seek and then confiscate profits off of me, and such "invisible and unprovable" underworld connivances/contrivances as those. Then I only get what the bums want me to have and I suddenly got this mailing address, me who has to find contact with any normal person all these years, and voila a normal-seeming mailing address but then I notice this lobby-portrait of the address's namesake has got this Lasker Award with him and the Lasker Award uses that Samothrace statue design and in trying to research the artpiece now I notice that it isn't actually a statue, that the archaeology behind the "discovery" of it in its piecemeal way is real peculiar, like that the Jomon, the post-Trojan invasion-war Jomon "winners" dispersed around to all those islands, seeking brain-highs, had invented the "statue" as a fetish, a "magic" fetish to bring victims like that lady for their decapitation delights. The type for the statue likely comes from the character of the mother of the killed character of the Trojan Hector, that that's modelled or put together on the design of what Hector's mother had looked like, trying to seek revenge probably. Hecuba I think she's called in the Homer "Iliad" account. Then these, to my thinking, Jomon had gone ahead and sneak-set up the whole planet like a big cannibalism-corral situation everywhere is in, nobody allowed to do anything except wait their turn to be slaughtered sort of a mentality over everywhere anymore. In this instance I'm therefore leery of giving out the address, in view of that I'm like in quicksand of these parasites that are all over me, that there isn't anything good about anything and this address is likely the same as me never getting a response in Washington from my hundreds of letters to groups all around the place right there, let alone then over this "internet" that they'd largely made off of cursing me circa 1992-93. I wrote to the post office about my difficulty in actually receiving any mail but I haven't tried at all to give anyone this address because I have so much cleaning-up work to get done in these files before it's okay-presentable, so it's like this constant joke of me being taken advantage of while trying to "straighten out" everything before I can try making a contact and then the over-ready system has already known who or what group I'm trying to prepare for and it's like the global-system "magicians" and crews against Kathy Foshay all day long every day, me huffing and puffing to try to walk through the illnesses they create by which to hinder me, etc., a big laugh for deranged developmentally disabled deviants this is. I'm still working on trying to get this straightened out, am looking to work up to getting attention from the phony neurology and gynecology fields till people could be safe to actually have their own babies again someday.
Below here is said to be a painting by Jan Matejko of the young Queen Jadwiga in the late Casimir III the Great of Poland's Wawel Castle in old Krakow, him passing around 1370 and this as though in about 1390 with her passing a few years later. I'm always trying to point out those small-sized characters on the left and on the staircase there, that alot of the system-workers came from those figures, like I think the fraud-parent difficulty that I have came from the figure at the very top on the left, and that these are people from King Casimir's early work or experiments in growing people from disembodied ovaries, and that he might not have actually have been King Casimir but a person who'd come from the system-base and taken over that castle as people all over Europe died off due to the lack of food from the early dinosaur extinction's taking its effect onto the world-population back then. Below here's a slight enlargement of the figures:

"The Orientals believe that the air, like a cave full of bats, overflows with a swarm of demons and evil spirits who swoop down on humans to plague them, and entire complex systems of theologies are based on trying to open some spiritual umbrella to keep from being pelted." Joseph von Sternberg quote from the end of his 1965 "Fun In a Chinese Laundry" memoir.
and then one about pornographic or spy material, the word virus in there somewhere, all legal-seeming scares, so it's the same with trying to reach me in any other way too, the parasites all over anything I've ever tried to do. Be careful but the system has become everything everywhere anymore. I'm supposed to be able to go to Northampton tomorrow to try to get done the library material I'd come here to see and then try to quick get away and leave those people without this "Armageddon" horror Program.
13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
13:2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
13:4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
13:9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
13:10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13:13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Man/Boy_Love_Association — Allen Ginsberg, poet and father of the Beat Generation, was an affiliated member of NAMBLA.[38] Claiming to have joined the organization "in defense of free speech",[39] Ginsberg said: "Attacks on NAMBLA stink of politics, witchhunting for profit, humorlessness, vanity, anger and ignorance … I'm a member of NAMBLA because I love boys too—everybody does, who has a little humanity".[40] He appeared in Chicken Hawk: Men Who Love Boys, produced and directed by Adi Sideman, a documentary in which members of NAMBLA were interviewed and presented defenses of the organization.[41]
These little "dividers" are here because I got the urge to try to get started on trying to describe/explicate the book of the "Revelation" at the back of most of the "Bibles" because this "Limitless" is a continuation of the Revelation-plan, me stuck in its Armageddon-making all these decades. I thought I'd try to make a dark bar separating the 2 work areas, describing that the "Limitless" crew would do anything to keep their "chemicals," serotonin mostly I'd guess, coming to themselves and then that the book is a derivation of the Revelation world-takeover Plan, that I'm in, and that it had been thought up because they were high and feeling that "Limitless" way but that they have their mass-reproduced disembodied-ovaries "offspring-descendants" everywhere nowadays and all still hooked on procuring the serotonin for themselves and that they're doing that through the "petroleum" industry and, of course, "human-meat" sales, the same book of Revelation authors' secretly-mass-reproduced offspring-descendants are doing that and are all around, I got the great idea, today being their "Halloween" to try to start in on explicating how that book of Revelation's authors' mass-reproduced descendants are taking us to their Armageddon's TOTAL PLANET EXTINCTION ending up. — I seem to have made a mess of it, kind of like is mentioned a couple of times in the "Limitless" novel. I think the St/e. Foy had had a get-rich-quick and takeover the world scheme of selling the miracle drug, being in business selling copies of the Revelation, which then attracted the gospels and letters and the older work to all join the business and selling the chemicals, plus their "genius" way of "making" people by growing fetuses from disembodied ovae into people, but the point it that all that comes from having the Autism developmental disability in the first place, those deviant ways and then their "limitless" self-beliefs but they are all over me right now right here. Add to that that the "Babar" type of the creation took up this "Saint/e Foy" role sometime not nearly as ancient-ago, that they might think that they are the know-it-alls about Saint/e Foy because it's one of their roles but I say they were just given that role by their "Jomon" leaders. That brings me back to the "Pill-grim boy" of the Ghent Altarpiece and his Jomon/St. Christopher leader, that I forgot to fit in here about that and I don't think there's time left today. There isn't, the 4-minute warning to be off of here just went on.

This, Chapter 12, book of the Revelation/s is the "character" I guess I'd been designated to "be." I think the underworld ***s, bums I guess, only designated that/this onto me in or circa 1989, just guessing about this all these years and it hasn't any connection to reality whatsoever, they are only dealing in stereotypes, and I figure I'd happened not to die or pass away some other way so they'd made this use of me. Then I recall, on this subject, that there had been that semion "sign" in the heavens or what back in 1979 also that I'd been picked or such as being one of the stereotyped "contenders" by mere survival to be excuse-used for this phony "role" in their unreal "play" off of the long-ago b.s. book. I'll try to arrange this better when I get back to here but I wanted to fit it in above that Ch. 21 spot and I'll double-check on the "Great Mystery of Babylon" "role" placement in trying to sort this out soon also.
This is a real rough idea but I'm thinking that maybe the large-sized head, obscured alot by the Pill-grim/Pilgrim boy's "bowl" haircut, might be connected to the Prehistoric-days accident-set that I think had caused the Autism and its umbrella of symptoms, that Autism is a developmental disability of getting stuck in an early phase of development and not growing or evolving out of that, then exacerbated by the disembodied-ovaries self-reproduction methodology, etc., but how a baby is born with a larger-sized head in proportion to its body and then grow out of that to where the body and head are in what we think of as regular proportion but this "St/e. Foy" etc. type seems to have the larger-sized head and maybe that's because of the arrested development from the Prehistoric Beringian accident-set and it didn't get evolved out of too much yet, as so many of these names I'm running into lately have the large-sized head, like Bishop Shahan and Aleister Crowley and the Ghent Altarpiece's Pilgrim boy and Charlotte Baldwin-Allen.
Revelation, Ch.21:1-2; hallucino-visions.
I couldn't find a year on this photo, why it looks so dark. I think the statue-reliquary was cleaned around 1959 but that the face was more round before the cleaning. I think the little vials Foy/St/e. Fides, Santa Fe, Saint/e Faith is holding had contained the "MDT/NZT/brain-chemicals, etc.," and that the group then had planned to become rich for their world-takeover by selling the "product," much like seems to be the case now. I found but haven't yet read this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Faith — Statue-reliquaire de sainte Foy, IXe siecle, Tresor de Conques, (par) artistes successife du 9eme au 14eme siecles; domaine public. This object is classé Monument Historique in the base Palissy, database of the French furniture patrimony of the French ministry of culture, under the reference PM12000116
Check the chapter on the every kind of bad fowl or what, that that's one of the "Armageddon Program" gimmicks that they're pulling right now behind my back, where after a "big-kill" they use the meat and "drug" to attract the homeless females that are around wherever I'm stranded this time, and feed those ladies and then use the ladies to attract unsuspecting males, that that's a main way they've been disappearing normal males and it's why I have all these WARNING/S. I didn't realize about the Revelation verse or verses until these last few years. I haven't tried to look at the material in a long time because I don't have anyone to speak with about it anyway. Offhand I'd just thought it was pretty obvious to our modern and millennnial perspective that there was something severely wrong with the author/s and then I traced it to Autism-psychopathy and then the psychoto-psychopathy of the Autist author/s' being on hallucinogens and then that they'd stripped the planet of what they could get high off of and turned to this onto people, then now it seems manufacturing people just for staying high off of their brains, our. But they've been doing that with whatever exactly those verses put it like and I'll try to look it up but am out of time again for today. (11/18/18)
St/e. Foy of Conques, where I figure the "Revelation" had been authored from.

The Orientals believe that the air, like a cave full of bats, overflows with a swarm of demons and evil spirits who swoop down on humans to plague them, and entire complex systems of theologies are based on trying to open some spiritual umbrella to keep from being pelted.
Anyone with a little "legal savvy" could check the verity of my Armageddon claims by figuring how I'd gotten an abortion in October 1971 in New York when the Texas-based Roe vs. Wade case didn't get a Supreme Court date until November 1971. I can't figure it out and being homeless I can barely keep the various circumstances at hand for trying to do so, looking up "Ms. Roe's" circumstances and how they match my situation of "that situation" when I was just turned 16. All these years one of the things I think is that the best thing I'd done was to get that done or I wouldn't be able to be even a whisper against the system's taking us to TOTAL PLANET EXTINCTION, that without that, extremely difficult to accomplish, abortion I wouldn't have gotten anywhere, would have been in a quagmire of meaningless as way later now I realize that those are actually someone else's ovae stuck up into ourselves for carrying these "growths" and we go along believing they're our own children and our lives are just like drainage going down the drain then doing that, so to try to describe this everyday-horror of this system. Besides that as a starting point, and this happened to me twice too, the system-people wallow in the delight of the secret insiders' knowledge that you're spending all your energy worrying about a kid that isn't yours anyway, that it's all just a "joke" on you that that's your kid, and in the 2 cases that that might have happened to me the perpetrators would have been purposely vicious my whole life through is why I know I wouldn't have any semblance of sanity right now if I hadn't gotten that accomplished somehow in 1971. Now, how was it possible that I even did get an abortion before they were legalized, is my question. Maybe there was something I didn't know about that I'd gotten some behind-my-awareness okay on the procedure's getting done because I was cross-eyed, for instance, or because the system wanted an abortion to experiment on anyway and so somehow had fraud-parent okay on the business. I'm sure the system was "growing" aborted fetuses, but the one I delivered to the hospital had an exception to being able to use it I'm pretty sure but not positive of, that I'd infected the specimen by including a piece of feces into the container it was put into, — the whole thing was difficult: I started employment on 12 August 1971 because I was desperate for anything productive to do and it was start the day before I turned 16 or no job so I took it but it couldn't have been too long after that I realized my "cycle" hadn't arrived, etc. Somehow I got myself downtown to a Planned Parenthood free clinic and they told me I was 6 weeks pregnant and call them in a month for a date for the procedure and I did and was on a hospital table and put to sleep and woke up and nothing had happened. They told me that now I was too far along for the usual suction procedure for 6-12 weeks and would have to wait another month for the 20+ -week saline procedure, which I think was then done through Jacobi hospital, but now I had to get a parental consent for that and the fraud-female-poor-dear-fraud-mater did that. There was then somehow a choice that one didn't HAVE TO go into the hospital when the saline took effect and the water broke, that I could bring what came out to them as soon as thereafter possible, which is what I did, doing all that over the toilet and scooping the pieces of placenta carefully into some washed-out orange juice bottle that I think was only one quart somehow, for the fetus and all the pieces that the placenta had broken into and then because the doctor had specified ALL the placenta pieces I'd been unsure and accidentally scooped in onto the top the piece that I wasn't sure if it was placenta or excrement and realized too late that it was the later, then onto the on top of all that in the orange juice jar and then it sat overnight and I brought it to Jacobi probably late that next morning, that I figure the specimen was unusable for experiment purposes because of the infectious material's sitting in the mix for so long. Gratuitously the nurse's aide told me it had been a boy, which I'd never have cared to know or guess about and don't know why she'd even said that. (Now I realize it'd been scripted to be the boy that was to rule with the iron rod mentioned in Rev. Ch. 12 and maybe somewhere else in there, my notes all lost and scattered/scattered and lost, but I'd spared the planet that scripted "ruler" that might have given this script some actual substance, whereas otherwise it's only been invisibly-torturing me because all the "invisible" elsewhere people strangers prefer different females to myself and I'm accused of jealousy about that or invisible-script unknown-world what goes on, but there's no terra firma birthed-person to be in the script that has any real connection to myself always alone out here, etc.) Then things got worse because then I'd had an IUD inserted for birth control purposes and I started hemorrhaging and didn't quit till I was hospitalized for anemia/pleurisy in Jan. 1972, a different hospital and a 3-day or so stay where they'd done a D&C….
— Because NY's law had already okayed ab. Thank goodness. It doesn't have anything to do with the Armageddon business. I thought maybe they'd made some exception so I could have one….

Brown Announces Weekend Seizure of Black Tar Heroin Worth $10 Million
Anaheim, Calif. – Attorney General Edmund G. Brown Jr. today announced that agents from the Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement on Saturday arrested a Mexican national, Gerardo Medina Hernandez, and seized 95 pounds of black tar heroin from his sports utility vehicle.
"The suspect stashed 95 pounds of black tar heroin in the wheel well of his SUV," Attorney General Brown said. "It is estimated that this heroin would sell for more than $10 million on the street, making it the largest seizure in Bureau history."
Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement agents were assisted in this investigation by the Los Angeles Intra-agency Metropolitan Police Apprehension Crime Task Force (L.A. IMPACT) and the Inglewood Police Department.
Hernandez, 25, is a native of Mexico, but has a green card and lives in Anaheim. He has no known prior criminal record in California.
As part the investigation, agents obtained a search warrant for Hernandez's vehicle and residence, which is located in the 1700 block of W. Lincoln Ave. in Anaheim.
During the search, agents found Hernandez unloading the heroin from two compartments built into the front wheel wells of the vehicle (a 2005 Volkswagen SUV) and putting it into a cooler in his garage.
The Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement determined the wholesale value of the heroin to be $1.3 million. The established street value of the heroin is in excess of $10 million.
Hernandez was arrested and booked into the Los Angeles County Jail for possession of heroin for sale. Bail was set at $2 million.
Located in the Attorney General's office, the Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement is the oldest narcotic enforcement bureau in the United States.
Questions regarding this investigation can be directed to Senior Special Agent in Charge Orlando Lopez at (909) 208-9062. Photographs of the seizure are attached.

Steam and soot darken the skies above the city of Flint, and winds sweeping across its majestic harbor blow the choking products of industrial forges into the fey rainforests that dot its knife-toothed mountains. Since the earliest ages when the people of Risur founded this city, they feared the capricious beings that hid in those fog-shrouded peaks, but now as the march of progress and the demands of national defense turn Flint into a garden for artifice and technology, the old faiths and rituals that kept the lurkers of the woods at bay are being abandoned.
The Unseen Court, the Great Hunt, and the many spirits of the land long ago conquered by Risur's kings no longer receive tribute, but they cannot enter these new cities of steam and steel to demand their tithe. The impoverished workers who huddle in factory slums fear monsters of a different breed, shadowy children of this new urban labyrinth. Even their modern religions have no defenses against these fiends.
Times are turning. The skyseers – Risurs folk prophets since their homeland's birth – witness omens in the starry wheels of heaven, and they warn that a new age is nigh. But what they cannot foresee, hidden beyond the steam and soot of the night sky, is the face of this coming era, the spirit of the age. The zeitgeist.

Editor's note: The Rev. Jesse Jackson, a longtime civil rights activist, is the founder and president of the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition and was an aide to the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
(CNN) — Today is the 45th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a champion for freedom, civil rights and justice.
I was blessed to be with him the last weekend before his death. I remember the trauma he felt as a result of his opposition to the war in Vietnam.
Before going to Memphis, King had the Rev. Ralph Abernathy call for a staff meeting in his church study on a Saturday morning. His close aides came. King complained that he had felt the pain of "a migraine headache for four days." He said, "Maybe I've done as much as I could. We've come from the back of the bus, gotten the Voting Rights Act, the Civil Rights Act…" One of us — Andy Young — asked him not to talk that way. King responded, "Don't say peace when there is no peace."
Many of his supporters had turned against him because of his position on the war in Vietnam, but King felt he had to do what was right. He contended, "There are those who want me to confine my morality to the war on poverty and overlook the war in Vietnam. However, the bombs in Vietnam ultimately explode at home because of poverty." He contemplated fasting until he was near the point of death, anticipating that "those who disagree with me would come to my bedside and we could reconcile."
But then he shook off his pessimism and declared, "Let's turn a minus into a plus, like we did before. Let's make this nation deal forthrightly with the issue of poverty."
It was with this insight in mind that we went on to Memphis to work with sanitation workers. Beyond their work and their stained uniforms, these workers wanted their children to graduate from college and to attain the American dream.
King was invited to speak at the Mason Temple church, but he still suffered from a migraine headache. He sent Abernathy and me in his place. It was a big space, and everyone applauded, assuming King was behind us. We went to the back of the church and called King to tell him he had to come, even if not for long. He came. That night, he gave the now famous "mountaintop" speech.
Yet, Memphis is memorable less for the accolades for King than for the condemnations of him. We idolize him now as a martyr; we but rejected him as a marcher.
Dr. King was invested in the war on poverty, but the federal government and the media were invested in the war in Vietnam. He was invested in justice, but many in the world were invested in the status quo. He was vilified, lied to, spied upon, jailed and threatened. Sick and misguided people wanted to see Dr. King dead, but he represented a truth that lives cannot deter, that jails cannot confine, and bullets cannot kill. Those who shot him meant it for evil, but instead they shot him into immortality. King cannot be buried.
When confronted with a dilemma, King often said that we face three questions: First, our vanity asks "Is it popular?" Second, politics asks the question "Can it win?" Finally, conscience asks the question, "Is it right?" It may be neither popular nor politic, King argued, but if it is right it will prevail.
In the time since King saw his vision from the mountaintop, much has changed for the better. Three women have been appointed to the Supreme Court; voting has become more democratic; women sit on juries as well as men; students vote en masse. We now have a black president and our state legislatures and local governments are comprised of people who are black, Asian, Hispanic, white, female and male.
Ultimately though, King's work was not about complexion, but direction. He fought for freedom, but equality was the next stage. Freedom was the absence of barbarism and sickness; the fight for equality is a move towards sharing resources.
Former allies in the freedom movement would not necessarily be our allies in the equality movement. We may go to sporting events together, like when the New Orleans Saints play the Atlanta Falcons, but when the game is over we rarely vote together, do not share capital and grow together. We are missing an opportunity and growing apart.
While we struggle over the battles of sequestration and fiscal cliffs, we ignore the growth of poverty. Instead of horizontal divergence based on race, we now face vertical polarization that separates the haves from the have-nots. There is no apparent plan for reconstruction.
If King were alive today, I imagine he would cry out for new priorities. He could not rest with the new forms of war and old forms of poverty. He would abhor the political polarization that is the new normal in American life. He would challenge the rhetoric of states rights and its attempt to undermine a more perfect union. King fought for democracy over Democrats, the republic over Republicans, a one big-tent America: everybody in and nobody out.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Jesse Jackson.

Woody Allen, original name Allen Stewart Konigsberg, legal name Heywood Allen, (born December 1, 1935, Brooklyn, New York, U.S.), American motion-picture director, screenwriter, actor, comedian, playwright, and author, best known for his bittersweet comic films containing elements of parody, slapstick, and the absurd but who also made weighty dramas, often with dark themes and bleak landscapes reminiscent of the work of Swedish director Ingmar Bergman—who, perhaps more than any other filmmaker, influenced Allen's work. Allen was also known as a sympathetic director for women, writing strong and well-defined characters for them. Among his featured performers were Diane Keaton and Mia Farrow, with both of whom he was also romantically involved. By the late 1970s Allen not only was widely regarded as one of the world's most-accomplished filmmakers but also was considered something of an American national treasure. The unevenness of his films in the 1980s and '90s tarnished his reputation, as did some disastrous turns in his personal life, but he remained a significant, extraordinarily prolific filmmaker well into the 21st century.
Allen Konigsberg grew up in Brooklyn in a family steeped in Jewish culture. He was especially close to his younger sister, who would later work with him as a producer. As a boy, he was enamoured of sports, magic, motion pictures, and jazz (taking up the clarinet as a teenager, though his musical idol was saxophonist Sidney Bechet). While still in high school, using the name Woody Allen, he began submitting quips to newspaper columnists—most notably to the nationally syndicated Earl Wilson. Before long, as Woody Allen, he was being paid to write jokes for entertainers. Stints by Allen as a student at New York University (as a film major) and the City College of New York were ended abruptly by poor grades and erratic attendance. In 1956 Allen began writing for television, and in 1958 he joined Sid Caesar's writing staff alongside Larry Gelbart (later the writer-producer of TV's M*A*S*H*) and Mel Brooks. In 1960 Allen moved to the Garry Moore Show. At this time he also began performing stand-up comedy at clubs in Greenwich Village, which led to guest appearances on television and to several comedy albums.
While performing stand-up in a nightclub in 1964, Allen impressed actress Shirley MacLaine and producer Charles K. Feldman, who gave him a chance to write the screenplay for the film What's New, Pussycat? (1965), in which he also appeared. Allen made his first film, What's Up, Tiger Lily? (1966), by redubbing a James Bond-like Japanese action film, International Secret Police: Key of Keys (1965), and shifting its focus to the pursuit of a top-secret recipe for egg salad. A year later Allen played Bond's nephew in Casino Royale. In the meantime, he wrote a play, Don't Drink the Water, which won acclaim on Broadway in 1966. That year also marked Allen's first contribution to The New Yorker. Writing initially in the style of S.J. Perelman, Allen would go on to contribute dozens of sophisticated humour pieces to the magazine over several decades; these pieces were collected in books such as Without Feathers (1975) and Getting Even (1978).
Take the Money and Run (1969) was Allen's debut behind the camera. An uneven but often riotously funny pseudo-documentary, it was cowritten by Mickey Rose and Allen, who starred as a hopelessly inept thief who apparently learned his trade from watching old Warner Brothers prison films. Made for under $2 million, the film did well enough to earn Allen a three-picture deal with United Artists Corporation, for whom he would continue to make films throughout the 1970s.
Before undertaking another feature film, Allen starred on Broadway from 1969 to 1970 in another play that he had written, the romantic comedy Play It Again, Sam. In the 1972 Herbert Ross-directed film adaptation of the play, Allen reprised his role as a shy film critic who seeks romantic advice from an apparition of Humphrey Bogart. Bananas (1971), the first of Allen's directorial efforts for United Artists, starred him as a hapless, neurotic Manhattanite who is drawn into a revolution in a fictional Central American country. Though somewhat undisciplined, Bananas offered snatches of absurdist humour that rank among Allen's funniest film moments.
In Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Sex (but Were Afraid to Ask) (1972), Allen satirized David Reuben's popular sex manual with mixed results. Sleeper (1973), a far more cohesive satire, featured Allen in the role of a neurotic health-food mogul who goes into the hospital for a simple operation and awakens 200 years later to learn that doctors had frozen him and that he is now a stranger in an even stranger land. Sex is forbidden—a notion inimical to any Allen protagonist—so he joins the rebel underground, whose leader is played by Diane Keaton (Allen's costar in Play It Again, Sam). Love and Death (1975), a parody of Leo Tolstoy's fiction, Sergey Eisenstein's filmmaking, and a clutch of other landmarks of Russian culture, was less universally applauded.
After delivering an excellent "straight" performance as the protagonist in The Front (1976), Martin Ritt's fine drama about Hollywood blacklisting, Allen made Annie Hall (1977), a breakthrough work that dramatically elevated his status as a filmmaker. An elliptical account of the rise and fall of a romance between the quirky title character (played by Keaton) and a comedy writer (Allen), it was Allen's first attempt to blend genuine sentiment with his patented theatre-of-the-ridiculous. Although Allen denied its origins in autobiography, the poignant love story almost certainly mirrored some aspects of the real-life relationship that had transpired between Keaton and Allen. The film also marked the emergence of the distinctive on-screen persona that many came to believe was merely an extension of the offscreen Allen: a neurotic, erudite, wisecracking, moralistic, phobia-ridden pessimist who is obsessed with his mortality but finds solace for his existential despair in art and love and who is at base a mensch. Audiences and critics alike were charmed by Annie Hall, which won Academy Awards for best picture, best actress (Keaton), best director, and best screenplay (Allen and collaborator Marshall Brickman). Allen, however, astounded Hollywood by choosing not to attend the Academy Award ceremony but instead to play clarinet at Michael's Pub in Manhattan, as he usually did on Monday nights.
Allen's next film, Interiors (1978), was a carefully crafted homage to the weighty psychodramas of Ingmar Bergman. Abjuring humour, this tale of a dysfunctional family (starring Geraldine Page, Maureen Stapleton, E.G. Marshall, Mary Beth Hurt, and Keaton) received a mixed reaction from critics, some of whom saw it as decidedly pretentious. Despite the film's poor showing at the box office, Allen received Academy Award nominations for best director and best original screenplay.
Manhattan (1979) restored Allen's covenant with his fans. Lyrically photographed (in black-and-white, by Gordon Willis), deftly written (by Allen and Brickman, whose screenplay was nominated for an Academy Award), and wonderfully scored (with music by George Gershwin), it was an ode to the city that Allen loved. The plot centred on the attempts by a television writer (Allen) to find a more meaningful career and a less confused love life—he is involved with a 17-year-old acting student (Mariel Hemingway) as well as with his best friend's mistress (Keaton). More polished and less sentimental than Annie Hall, while possessing the depth of Interiors, Manhattan has some claim to being Allen's best film, although it did not enjoy the broad success of Annie Hall.
In the 1980s Allen enjoyed the admiration of filmgoers, critics, and film industry professionals alike. Actors almost universally seemed willing to come to New York City at the drop of a hat to work with him for "scale" (the Screen Actors Guild minimum required compensation). Allen's minimal direction of his actors was well known, and some performers fared better than others—though, by 2012, 15 different actors had received Academy Award nominations for their work with him. After a decade of working with United Artists, Allen switched the financing of his films to Orion Pictures. Producers Arthur Krim and Eric Pleskow, whom Allen followed from United Artists to Orion, continued to allow him the creative freedom to make movies his way: with relatively modest budgets, exquisite scripts that still left room for improvisation by actors, and intricately coordinated movement and cinematography that allowed for long takes so that much of Allen's editing was done with the camera rather than in postproduction. The expectation was that his films would earn significantly more in foreign release than in the United States.
Stardust Memories (1980), in which Allen plays a filmmaker who is becoming increasingly contemptuous of his fans and his work, was apparently his attempt to wed the storytelling style of Federico Fellini (another of his idols) to his own particular vision. However, some critics found the film's visual surrealism an uneasy companion to Allen's familiar obsessions. Better received but unremarkable was A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy (1982), a roundelay among six turn-of-the-20th-century vacationers (and an homage to Bergman's Smiles of a Summer Night), which paired Allen on-screen with Mia Farrow for the first time.
Zelig (1983) created considerably more excitement, largely because of its groundbreaking use of period film footage as the backdrop for what is basically an amusing faux documentary (Robert Zemeckis would use an advanced form of this technique in Forrest Gump [1994]). Allen plays "human chameleon" Leonard Zelig, who has an uncanny ability to appear at the most critical junctures of history in the 1920s—listening to Adolf Hitler stir a crowd, watching Babe Ruth swat a home run—although he himself desires only anonymity.
Shot in black and white, the often zany Broadway Danny Rose (1984) was marred by an unevenness of tone. In it Allen played a marginal booker of oddball burlesque acts opposite Farrow, cast against type as a mobster's girlfriend. Metaphysical musing is often central to Allen's films, and in Broadway Danny Rose his character makes one of the filmmaker's most epigrammatic postulates: "Acceptance, forgiveness, and love…that is a philosophy of life." Charming but ultimately downbeat, The Purple Rose of Cairo (1985) was the poignant story of a cinema-going Depression-era shop girl (Farrow) whose lacklustre life is enlivened when a swashbuckling actor (Jeff Daniels) literally walks off the screen and into her world.
After earning Academy Award nominations for the screenplays of Broadway Danny Rose and The Purple Rose of Cairo, Allen won that award for his next film, Hannah and Her Sisters (1986), a complex modern romance that examined the travails of three couples. Its superb ensemble cast included Farrow as Hannah; Michael Caine as her husband, who is smitten by one of Hannah's sisters (Barbara Hershey); Dianne Wiest as another sister; and Allen, in a self-effacingly sweet performance as Hannah's ex-husband. Radio Days (1987) was a nostalgic but rambling valentine to the New York City of Allen's youth in the early 1940s and to the glory days of radio. Allen received yet another Academy Award nomination for its screenplay.
While September (1987) was an unwieldy return to the psychodramatic territory of Interiors, Allen fared better when he took a Bergmanesque approach with Another Woman (1988), in which Gena Rowlands was superb as a philosophy professor who undergoes a life-changing epiphany. Much of the credit for the film's impact was due to the contribution of Sven Nykvist, the cinematographer for many of Bergman's greatest films. Allen's hilarious contribution to the triptych New York Stories (1989)—"Oedipus Wrecks," about an attorney whose nagging mother (Mae Questrel) transmogrifies into an omniscient spectre—was widely acknowledged to be the film's strongest segment. Allen's next project, Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989), ranks among his finest films. An ambitious Fyodor Dostoyevsky-like meditation on the nature of evil and culpability, it centred on Martin Landau's portrayal of an ophthalmologist who wrestles with guilt after slaying his mistress (Anjelica Huston) to prevent her from revealing their affair to his wife (Claire Bloom). In counterpoint, Allen plays a married documentary filmmaker who lusts after a producer (Farrow).
Alice (1990), an extremely quiet film, received indifferent reviews, but it arguably contained Farrow's best performance in any of Allen's films as a wealthy woman who is sent down a fantasy rabbit hole by an ancient Chinese sage. After performing opposite Bette Midler in Paul Mazursky's film Scenes from a Mall (1991), Allen made the Kafkaesque thriller Shadows and Fog (1991), which was generally regarded as forgettable.
By this point Allen and Farrow had long been involved romantically. Although they never married, they famously lived across New York's Central Park from each other, shared the parenting of two of the several children Farrow had adopted, and had a son together. Allen's life changed dramatically in 1992 after it became public knowledge that he and Farrow's 21-year-old adopted daughter Soon-Yi Previn were having an affair. Allen and Farrow split and were often in court as well as in the headlines as they fought for custody of their three children. Although Farrow's allegations against him of child abuse were unproven, she won custody of the children, and Allen, whose films had established him as a paragon of virtue, was vilified by many as a hypocrite. His popularity with critics and filmgoers suffered significantly. In the wake of these events, Soon-Yi Previn became Allen's third wife. (His first marriage had come at age 18, and his second marriage was to actress Louise Lasser. Both of those marriages had ended in divorce.)
In the midst of the media blitzkrieg, Allen finished making Husbands and Wives (1992), a darkly comic tale that revolved around a couple (Judy Davis and Sydney Pollack) whose impending split inspires their best friends (Allen and Farrow) to break up and seek new lovers. Although Husbands and Wives was admired by a number of critics, many of its considerable merits were overshadowed by the negative impact of the publicity surrounding the Allen-Farrow split.
The lighthearted Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993) featured the return of Keaton as Allen's leading lady, playing an amateur sleuth who stumbles into a Rear Window-like scenario in which she suspects that a neighbour has committed a murder. Bullets over Broadway (1994), which starred John Cusack as a Prohibition-era playwright who finds his first Broadway effort transformed through the interference of a mobster and the protests of a theatrical grande dame (Wiest), earned Allen an Academy Award nomination for best director. Praise was scarcer for the made-for-television version of Don't Drink the Water (1994) that Allen directed and in which he starred.
As the decade progressed, Allen continued to release at least one film per year. Mighty Aphrodite (1995) benefited from a typically stellar cast and an especially strong performance by Mira Sorvino, who won the Academy Award for best supporting actress for her work in the film. As a musical, Everyone Says I Love You (1996) was something quite different for Allen. Moreover, he filmed his star-studded cast (Alan Alda, Goldie Hawn, Julia Roberts, and Edward Norton) not only in New York but also in Paris and Venice. In the darkly comic Deconstructing Harry (1997), Allen played a writer who has used his own life as the basis for his art, much to the displeasure of his friends and family. Celebrity (1998) followed. Shot in black-and-white by Nykvist—with a cast that included Kenneth Branagh, Leonardo DiCaprio, Winona Ryder, Charlize Theron, and Joe Mantegna—the film looked great but was considered a minor entry in Allen's oeuvre. In the more-focused Sweet and Lowdown (1999), Sean Penn turned in a memorable performance as a mythic 1930s jazz guitarist.
As a result of the erratic box-office performance of his films in the 1990s, Allen had found it necessary to seek independent financing for his projects. Small Time Crooks (2000) was a modest comedy starring Allen and Tracy Ullman as a married couple whose elaborate (but essentially absurd) bank robbery plan predictably goes off the rails. The Curse of the Jade Scorpion (2001), a B-movie tribute set in the New York City of the 1940s, was another slight film. Hollywood Ending (2002) was more ambitious, with Allen playing a washed-up Hollywood director who has to grovel to land a prestige assignment from the studio executive who also happens to be his ex-wife. The appropriately titled Anything Else (2003) was widely viewed as another misfire. More interesting though flawed was Melinda and Melinda (2004), in which Radha Mitchell starred in dual story lines as a homeless woman who suddenly appears on the stoop of an old New York friend requesting shelter. The film's parallel story lines are woven in real time by two playwrights over a shared dinner, one giving the premise a comedic spin and the other fashioning it into a serious drama.
Match Point (2005) was a major departure and became Allen's most celebrated film in years. A suspenseful Alfred Hitchcock-like meditation on the vagaries of desire and fate, by way of Theodore Dreiser, it starred Jonathan Rhys-Meyers as an upwardly mobile British tennis pro whose engagement to a wealthy aristocrat seems much less appealing once he gets involved with a voluptuous American actress (Scarlett Johansson). The primarily British cast and the deftly built suspense made this a most atypical Allen film.
Allen's next two films were also made in England. Scoop (2006) found him working again with Johansson, but this time on a much lighter tale of skullduggery. The less well-realized thriller Cassandra's Dream (2007) followed. Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008) quickly reestablished Allen's momentum. It functioned simultaneously as a compelling romantic drama, a magnificent travelogue, and a deft comedy of manners. Javier Bardem played a supremely confident Barcelona-based artist and ladies' man who seduces a pair of tourists (Johansson and Rebecca Hall); Penélope Cruz's splendid performance as his combustible ex-wife earned her an Academy Award as best supporting actress. The film became one of Allen's biggest hits ever, grossing nearly $100 million worldwide.
Whatever Works (2009) returned to the New York City setting of so many of Allen's films. Larry David was magnificently irascible in a role that Allen might normally have played himself, a cranky Manhattanite who takes in a homeless teenage girl (Evan Rachel Wood) whose Southern roots soon begin to melt his granite heart. You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger (2010) had a far more high-profile cast—Antonio Banderas, Anthony Hopkins, Naomi Watts, Josh Brolin, Gemma Jones, and Frieda Pinto—but the multiple romantic roundelays here never seem to add up to anything of substance, despite an offbeat plot involving astrology and psychic consultations.
Critics had long seen Allen's focus on upper-middle- and upper-class characters, often involved in the media, as limiting. Moreover, from at least the beginning of the 21st century, there were also critics who felt that Allen had simply lost touch with contemporary mainstream America. Midnight in Paris (2011) may not have shown Allen to be any more aware of life in middle-class America, but, as the biggest commercial success of his lengthy career to that time, it did demonstrate that he still knew how to appeal to the average filmgoer. It was a triumph with the critics too. Owen Wilson was perfectly cast as Gil, a bohemian screenwriter who, while visiting Paris with his fiancée (Rachel McAdams) and her insufferable parents, is magically transported back to the 1920s, when the Lost Generation reigned in the French capital. Gil has amusing philosophical conversations with Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Cole Porter, Gertrude Stein (Kathy Bates), and Salvador Dalí, but he becomes fixated on Pablo Picasso's mistress (Marion Cotillard). The film earned Allen his first Academy Award nomination for best director in 25 years, and he won the award for his screenplay. (As usual, he did not attend the ceremony to accept it.)
The next installment in Allen's informal series of paeans to the world's great cities was To Rome with Love (2012). With a star-studded cast that included Cruz, Roberto Benigni, Alec Baldwin, Judy Davis, and Ellen Page, as well as cinematography by Darius Khondji, it showed Rome to beautiful advantage, always recalling Fellini while presenting it through Allen's fresh and uncynical gaze.
San Francisco was the locale for Allen's next film, Blue Jasmine (2013), which starred Cate Blanchett as the wife of an unscrupulous investment banker (Baldwin). After her wealth disappears, she moves in with her blue-collar sister. Reminiscent of Tennessee Williams's A Streetcar Named Desire, Blue Jasmine took Allen's work in a new direction as it confronted contemporary class-related issues. His script for the film earned him an Academy Award nomination for best original screenplay. It was his 16th nod for writing.
Allen appeared as a bookseller who becomes a pimp for his younger friend—played by John Turturro, who was also the film's director—in the comedy Fading Gigolo (2013). Allen then wrote the book for a stage musical adaption of his 1994 movie Bullets over Broadway. The musical, directed and choreographed by Susan Stroman, premiered on Broadway in 2014. He next directed the film Magic in the Moonlight (2014), a romantic farce about a magician (Colin Firth) who attempts to prove that a psychic (Emma Stone) is a fraud. Set in the Côte d'Azur and peopled with an amusingly droll supporting cast, the film leavened its serious inquiries about faith and reason with lavish cinematography and generous doses of arch humour. Irrational Man (2015), an existentially comic thriller set in a New England university town, featured Joaquin Phoenix as a disillusioned and dissipated philosophy professor who decides to kill a family court judge after overhearing that he is likely to award parental custody rights to an undeserving father. Rousing him from a period of sexual and creative impotence, the decision fuels simultaneous liaisons with a student (Stone) and a colleague's wife (Parker Posey).
In Allen's Café Society (2016), Jesse Eisenberg portrayed a young New Yorker who goes to work for his talent-agent uncle (Steve Carell) in Los Angeles, where he becomes entangled with a secretary (Kristen Stewart) before returning to the Bronx to assist his gangster brother with running a nightclub. The film, Allen's first to be shot in digital, was praised for its beautiful depictions of Los Angeles but was otherwise considered a somewhat minor effort. He then directed Wonder Wheel (2017), which starred Kate Winslet as a bored waitress on Coney Island in the 1950s who has an affair with a younger man, a lifeguard studying to be a playwright (Justin Timberlake).
In 2016 Allen ventured into television by writing, directing, and starring in the Amazon series Crisis in Six Scenes. He portrayed an elderly TV writer living in upstate New York who must contend with the social revolutions taking place around him during the 1960s.
Allen received the Cecil B. DeMille Award (a Golden Globe for lifetime achievement) in 2014.

Real estate professionals talk about 2013 outlook
Maine home sales, prices rose in December
More than 500 of Maine's real estate professionals are in Portland to talk about the industry.
Not just agents, but architects, construction, finance and tourism officials attended the conference at the Holiday Inn by the Bay, where MEREDA, or the Maine Real Estate and Development Association, is holding its annual forecasting meeting.
Keynote speakers will address the outlook for Maine when it comes to the economy and commercial and residential real estate.
A shorter term snapshot by the Maine Real Estate Information System said sales and prices of single family homes rose nearly 12 percent in December with more than 800 homes sold in Maine.
According to the multiple listing service, the median price rose 6.25 percent to $170,000, and brokers said the numbers are an accurate reflection of what's going on in the state.
"Sales have been up. We're seeing appreciation, and (the) number of sales (are) up significantly right now," said broker Chris Lavoie.
"It's definitely stronger than when we were in the sort of lows of the low," said broker Leanne Nichols.
"By leaving interest rates as low as they are, it's helping people, almost forcing people to take a look at buying real estate and it's really helped our industry a lot," said MEREDA President Drew Sigfridson.
However, a national forecasting organization, Kiplinger, ranked the Portland metro area 12th when it comes to cities where real estate prices have fallen most.
The website said the one-year change in real estate prices was a drop of just over 2 percent in the year that ended on Sept. 30.
The study includes metropolitan areas with 500,000 people, but greater Portland has 230,000, which means the study goes deeper into the state, and brokers said not every community has the selling points that Portland has.
"It's school system driven or water driven; walkable locations have become popular with the whole walkable communities. I think those are some of the bigger ones," said Nichols.
Nichols said downtown Freeport, Portland, Falmouth and Cape Elizabeth continue to be very popular communities.
Experts also said it may be a good time to sell while inventories are low and money is cheap.
"I think the sellers' market is going to continue to pick up and get some steam as we go into 2013," Lavoie said.

You know, ridiculously expensive collectors editions have their place. There are certain franchises where there are enough loyal fans around who will spend hundreds on a box full of crap. I do not think Dirt is one of those franchises.
That's not to say I think it's a bad franchise! Dirt 2 is one of the best racers around, especially if you can grab it on PC. But it just...doesn't seem like the kind of series that has legions of people going, "Yeah, I love this stuff SO DAMN MUCH I'm going to spend THREE HUNDRED BUCKS on it!"
If you are, though, get a look at this! It's a version of the upcoming racer being offered by GameStop that is listed at $299.99. For that price, you get two things: a copy of Dirt 3 and a remote control car.
With Dirt 3 going for $60 on its own, that's an extra $240 for the remote control car. That's, uh, a ton of money. I hope it makes your coffee in the morning for that kind of money.
Of course, this being a GameStop listing there's no guarantee it'll actually cost that much, so we're checking with the publishers just to be sure.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16 (UPI) -- U.S. actor Fred Thompson said despite his background as a politician he still gets turned down for television and film roles frequently.
"It's just one of those things, you miss out on more than you get," he told The Washington Examiner.
He said he's been working on independent projects, but was most recently turned down for a role on one of television's hottest shows, the Examiner reported Thursday.
"Actually I was up for a part on 'Homeland,' " Thompson said. "But I didn't get it."
He said he can't choose a favorite career between politics and acting because "it's hard to pick among your children," but can point to his role in "The Hunt for Red October" as his favorite acting job.
"First of all I played an admiral, which, I've gotta say, is kind of in my wheelhouse. I have never been an admiral, but you know, most actors haven't," Thompson said. "Plus it was just a great movie and it was probably the last Cold War movie where the Soviet Union was the bad guy."
Thompson is a former Republican U.S. senator from Tennessee.

The book profiles 20 women from diverse communities
connected by a single thread: creative expression.
One in every six women in the world lives in India, more than the combined female populations of North America, the European Union and the Middle East. Yet most people outside India know little about Indian women, who often receive confusing and inaccurate press covering.
Daughters of India: Art and Identity profiles 20 women from diverse communities ranging from the rice paddies of far southern India to the tea plantations of the Himalayas and from the dry western deserts to the verdant east coast. They represent every woman: the traditional and the contemporary, the repressed and the highly innovative, the outcast and the entrepreneur. In their battles against adversity, their own words express their innate strength.
All these women are connected by a single thread: creative expression. Some view themselves as artists while others would be surprised to be identified in this manner, but each woman creatively embellishes her daily or seasonal life. Indian women are often completely unconscious of their artistry, and it is only recently that they have drawn any attention. Daughters of India is about change in the face of almost impossible odds, personal initiative that carves out a new identity, and implacable insistence on the recognition of human rights.
About the Author
Author and photographer Stephen P Huyler has spent three-and-a-half decades documenting Indian art as it relates to ritual and society.
This book is available in territories other than South Asia through another publisher.
"Few authour have seen India through such understanding eyes"
—News India-Times
"Huyler's lens captures the colours and conditions of their lives in vivid details. The book is as much about women as about art and photography."
— The Telegraph, India
"This volume should appeal to anyone with an interest in India or women's issues, but the stories and pictures are compelling enough to engage even the most casual reader."

More Cards and are't they cute!
I made these 3 cards using the Euphoria Basic Grey Paper. I sooo love this paper it is soo soft, pretty and has a lot of interest in it. I pretty basically used that same pp and same color of cardstock for these 3 cards. I also love to use the same supplies and see how many different looks I can get while using them. Although each card has the same color palette and some of the same elements each card is uniquely it's own. So try doing the same, use the same stamp image, a piece of clip art and/or elements and see how many different looks you can come up it, but mostly have fun!

Use an explicit export list
(note: this only applies to compilers based on separate compilation, not to those based on whole-program compilation like JHC).
If you do not have an explicit export list in a module, the compiler must assume that everything in that module will be exported. This disables various useful optimisations:
- If a function is used only once in the current module, and not exported, there is no penalty for inlining the function at its single use point.
- If a function is not used at all, and not exported, its definition can be discarded.
- The compiler has more flexibility regarding calling conventions and the like for functions that are not visible beyond the current compilation unit.

Story highlights
Chelsea beat Everton 2-1 to go third in the English Premier League
Frank Lampard scores both goals in the win at Goodison
Lampard's future at Chelsea in doubt after 12 years with the EPL club
Luis Suarez double as Liverpool beat bottom club QPR 3-0
Frank Lampard underlined his continued value to Chelsea by scoring both goals in their 2-1 win at Everton Sunday as they went third in the English Premier League.
South African Steven Pienaar gave Everton a second minute lead but former England international Lampard turned the game around for the visitors.
The 34-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and reports have been linking him with a move away from the west London giants, even as early as the January transfer window.
"I know there is a lot of speculation and talk but I just want to continue playing," Lampard told Sky Sports after the match.
"I will always have Chelsea in me for life."
During his 12 years at the club, Lampard's goal tally from midfield has always proved a key factor in Chelsea's success and his well-placed 42nd minute header canceled out Pienaar's earlier opportunist effort.

Everton, who are challenging strongly for a Champions League berth, hit the woodwork three times in a fine match, but came unstuck late on.
Tim Howard saved from Juan Mata, but Lampard was in the right place to turn in the winner.
Sylvain Distin made a last-ditch saving tackle to deny Fernando Torres a third for Chelsea before Nikica Jelavic wasted a chance for Everton to equalize.
He shot straight at goalkeeper Ross Turnbull, a halftime replacement for Petr Cech, who has an injured ankle.
The victory lifted Chelsea above Tottenham Hotspur into third place in the standings, still 11 points behind leaders Manchester United, but with a game in hand.
In the later kickoff, Liverpool left Queens Park Rangers in deeper problems at the bottom of the table with a 3-0 win at Loftus Road.
Liverpool manager Brendan Rogers did not travel with the team after going down with an infectious virus but it was Harry Redknapp's QPR who were left feeling under weather after a sorry performance.
Luis Suarez took advantage of defensive frailties to score twice in the opening 16 minutes, taking his EPL tally for the season to 13.
Danish defender Daniel Agger headed the third near the half hour mark and the game was effectively over as a contest.
Liverpool move up to ninth with QPR on 10 points from 20 games, eight points adrift of safety.

Toby's Public House, a Familiar Pizza in New, Laid-Back Surroundings
Toby's Public House
686 Sixth Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215 (at 21st Street; map); 718-788-1186; kitchenbarny.com
Oven Type: Wood-burning
Pie Style: Neapolitan
The Skinny: A relaxing, laid-back pub whose name belies the fact that there are some great little Neapolitan-style pizzas coming out of the rustic wood-burning oven here. Small, 12-inch, well-balanced pies are crisp at the edges but do exhibit some tip sag
You could be excused for overlooking the great little pies being served at Toby's Public House. The exterior looks more like something I'd imagine you'd see in small-town England, and the name doesn't exactly scream pizza. But step inside, glance to the back, and you'll find a rustic-looking wood-burning oven with a couple no-nonsense-looking pizzaioli going at it with the dough.
What's more, on our initial visit there last week, we spotted a familiar face—Nicola Bertolotti, who once worked as the lead pizzaiolo at Fornino in Williamsburg. I've always liked the pizza at Fornino, so I Bertolotti's presence seemed to go a long way in backing up the praise-laden emails and IMs I'd been getting about the place since it opened in March.
When we sent a second round of Slice correspondents out for another go (I had been spotted and wanted an unvarnished sampling), the pies were reportedly crisper. We might conclude that, like many pizzerias with temperamental wood- or coal-burning ovens, the consistency may vary here.
What seems pretty certain though is the nice balance of crust, sauce, and cheese. I thought the sauce was pretty standout. While many Neapolitan places feature a barely-cooked (or not-cooked-at-all sauce), this one was thick and rich and had a pleasant enough herby flavor.
For me, the jury's still out on Toby's until I can visit it enough to see if it holds up. But it's a great addition to this part of whatever neighborhood it's in—Park Slope? Windsor Terrace? "Greenwood Heights"? And it's good enough to draw me the 20-minute walk from my North Slope home.
Bonus Coverage: Dessert Calzone
I won't go too much into this thing, but Toby's also offers a unique (at least to me) dessert in its nutella-ricotta calzone. It seems like a weird combo, but it works. Paired with a glass of Fra Angelico, as suggested by the staff, and you're golden. More on this item at Serious Eats New York »
