I like Paisley the best! I can picture it on a little red haired green eyed girl. I think that it also sounds very nice with her brother's name, Leeland. I really like the name Leeland too!
Drew would be my second pick out of your list but I don't think it goes as nicely with Leeland as Paisley. Maybe you could find a longer form of the name that you like and you could use Drew as nickname....
I am not too fond of Aspen. I really do want to love it but I can't get past the first syllable as hard as I've tried to.
Marlo would be my last choice. It sounds too masculine for my taste.

1997 Mazda 626 • 4 cylinder FWD Automatic • 26,000 miles
I have replaced hoses and flushed the radiator, and replaced the cap, I have took off the pipe across the top of the radiator that goes to the coolant reservoir and cleaned it out(which was blocked). Now instead of the water blowing out the pipes or the cap, it's running through that pipe and coming out the hole at the top of the coolant overflow tube. It smells like it's running hot, but the temp gauge on the dash say's normal. Is it suppose to do that? I need to put antifreeze in, but afraid it's just gonna leak out again.

The cap controls the pressure so if you have a new acp and it's still blowing past it, that means your getting excessive pressure in the cooling system which could be due to a blown head gasket that would have been caused by one of the earlier overheatings.

- Adquisición a Concepción Santoja Rosales, 1984
A bust portrait of the artist's cousin and wife over a dark background. She is turned slightly to the right. Her hair is pulled back and she is dressed in blue with a transparent black tulle shawl on her shoulders.
This painting was made when she was twenty-one years old, some time before her marriage, and in it, Rosales very freely reflects his feelings of tenderness and love toward the model.
Beyond the manifest influence of Velasquez, mention should be made of the rapid and loose technique, which is combined with more modern elements closer to some aspects of Manet or Degas' work. This is especially clear in the plasticity of certain objects, such as the shawl, the flower on the neck of her dress and her belt buckle.
This work was painted on a rectangular stretcher and was to bear an oval frame.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ Republican challenger Nick Jordan has filed for office in the 3rd Congressional District.
Jordan, a state senator from Shawnee, already is campaigning. Last week, President Bush was the guest of honor at a private fundraising reception for Jordan in Johnson County.
But his candidacy didn't become official until he paid a $1,672 fee Thursday to the secretary of state's office. That guaranteed Jordan a spot on the Aug. 5 primary ballot.
Jordan is seeking the right to challenge Democratic incumbent Dennis Moore, who won the seat for the GOP-leaning 3rd District in 1998.
But Jordan faces Paul Showen, a retired construction worker and real estate agent from Shawnee, in the primary.

Possibility of a Fed Easing Debated; Drop in Prices Opens Door for Lower Interest Rates
Dawson, Stella, American Banker
Possibility of a Fed Easing Debated
WASHINGTON - June's retreat of wholesale prices and decline in retail sales leave room for lower interest rates if the nascent recovery sputters, economic analysts said.
"This pushes the evidence a little bit more toward a weak recovery and the possibility that the Fed will have to ease credit some more," said Robert McGee, economist at Tokai Bank, in the wake of the release of the latest economic indicators.
In a sign of slow demand, the Labor Department, said the producer price index fell by an unexpected 0.3% last month.
The drop brought the wholesale inflation rate to minus 1.5% on an annualized basis thus far this year, versus an 8.2% spurt during the Gulf crisis in the 1990 second half.
Dip in Retail Sales
But fears that the economy will falter as it emerges from recession were fueled by the U.S. Commerce Department's report that June retail sales fell 0.2%. Analysts had expected a 0.5% June gain in sales. May sales were revised down to a 0.8% gain from the previously reported 1% increase.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce took a pessimistic reading of the reports. "The economy is not undergoing a sustainable recovery," said its economist, Lawrence Hunter. "Falling consumer spending could create a double-dip recession. …

Legislative News
Death penalty repeal measure now in limbo
The Colorado Statesman
A House committee on Wednesday delayed action on a proposal to ask Colorado voters whether to repeal the state's death penalty. The move comes on the heels of nine hours of emotional testimony heard by another House committee the night before on a rival measure that would abolish the death penalty outright.
Community colleges strive to expand their access
But to what degree?
The Colorado Statesman
Colorado's community colleges are seeking permission from the General Assembly to offer four-year bachelor's degrees, but it's pitting Democrats in the state Senate against each other, and drawing the kind of opposition from the state's public universities that one university president likened to a "food fight."
Oil and gas violations could be costlier
Legislative committees approve raise in fines
The Colorado Statesman
With the majority of gun control bills in the rearview mirror, Democrats have set their crosshair on regulating the energy industry. Committees of both the House and Senate on Thursday advanced key oil and gas agenda items, readying for another fight with Republicans under the Gold Dome.
Ex-state senator defends Neville in ethics committee hearing
The Colorado Statesman
A legislative ethics committee on Wednesday began its investigation into a complaint brought by Rep. Cheri Gerou, R-Evergreen, against Rocky Mountain Gun Owners lobbyist Joe Neville for allegedly threatening political retribution during a conversation about gun control legislation.
The Committee to Investigate a Complaint under Joint Rule 36 — convened by the Executive Committee of the Legislative Council, which includes bipartisan legislative leaders from both chambers — made no findings, but heard a defense from Neville's attorney, former Sen. Shawn Mitchell, R-Broomfield.
Joint select committee meets to hash out pot regs
The Colorado Statesman
Establishing regulatory framework for legalization of adult-use marijuana in Colorado could come down to a last-minute effort by the legislature after an implementation task force on Wednesday issued a 165-page report to lawmakers and the governor's office with 58 policy recommendations.
Jack Finlaw, co-chairman of the Amendment 64 Implementation Task Force and chief legal counsel to Gov. John Hickenlooper, called the report a "gift" for lawmakers.
Legislature approves civil unions
Bill gets bipartisan support in House of Representatives
The Colorado Statesman
The state House of Representatives on Tuesday gave final, bipartisan approval to civil unions despite complaints from Republican lawmakers that the legislation failed to protect those who object to same-sex couples on religious grounds.
"This bill is about three simple things: it's about love, it's about family, and it's about equality under the law," said House Speaker Mark Ferrandino, D-Denver, the chamber's first openly gay leader and one of the bill's chief sponsors.
Mid-session at Capitol fosters finger pointing
The Colorado Statesman
Legislative leaders were quick to point the finger at their political counterparts as the midsession approached on March 7, with each party arguing that the other is out of touch with the will of Colorado voters.
Democrats first defended their ambitious agenda so far this session, which has included a comprehensive package of gun control legislation, and controversial measures to support same-sex civil unions and provide in-state tuition to undocumented students.
School Finance Act could be overhauled
Public could ultimately decide possible ballot measure
The Colorado Statesman
Members of the Colorado General Assembly aren't waiting for a decision from the Colorado Supreme Court in Lobato v. State of Colorado.
Last Friday, Sens. Michael Johnston, D-Denver, and Rollie Heath, D-Boulder, introduced Senate Bill 13-213, a new Public School Finance Act that Johnston says will address some of the issues raised in Lobato.

The Balancing ActPhyllis Shelton was a guest on Lifetime Television's "The Balancing Act" to talk about how caregiving without the help of long term care insurance can crush the dreams of millions of American women, emotionally and financially.
Parkinson's DiseaseHis mother lived to age 91 with Parkinson's Disease, and the costs would have been overwhelming without long term care insurance.
Motorcycle AccidentIn an instant, a tragic accident turned a loving wife into a long term caregiver.
Latte or Long Term Care?Over twenty states are suing the Federal government over the Medicaid expansion. Medicaid is projected to consume more than a third of state budgets in 20 years, and the driver of that growth is LTC.
The Biggest Retirement Concerns – Do You Agree?
What are your biggest retirement concerns? Do you agree with this survey?
I Thought My Husband Would NEVER Use His LTC Insurance
There are no guarantees in life. I just heard from a grateful client who is so glad her husband bought LTC insurance.
An easier way to qualify for long-term care insurance
It's imperative that we continue to look for alternate ways to manage the long-term care (LTC) risk, and that's how I've been spending much of my time. For example, I'm looking at a number of annuities that provide long-term care
The Dramatic Difference LTC Insurance Makes to the Caregiver
Mary and Valerie have a lot in common as they are both caregivers. Mary's Aunt Julia has long-term care insurance, whereas Valerie's mother does not. Does it make a difference? Have you considered long-term care insurance to protect your family from the impact on Valerie's life?
Combining Life Insurance or Annuities with Long-Term Care Insurance
It would be easy to say "yes" to long-term care insurance if you didn't have to come up with new money to pay for it, wouldn't it? Well, there might just be a way to pull that off by repositioning money you already have. An important tax change was effective January 1, 2010* that has made it easier to combine long-term care insurance with either life insurance or annuities. This article shows three reasons why you might want to do that.
What Does the Supreme Court's Decision to Nullify DOMA Mean for Medicaid LTC Benefits?
Publicity around the Supreme Court's decision to nullify the Defense of Marriage Act on June 26, 2013 has centered around the ability to file joint tax returns and collect survivor social security benefits. My first reaction was "What about the ability to take advantage of the spousal impoverishment benefits under Medicaid?"
Response to June 8 2013 New York Times article about LTCI claims
If you saw the New York Times article "Fine Print and Red Tape in LTC Policies", you may be questioning your decision to buy long-term care insurance. Or, if you have a policy, this article may have made you wonder if you should have bought it. The fact that I'm writing this response shows you how important it is to me that you don't have these doubts. Please let me lay your concerns to rest as I respond to a client's question about her CNA policy.
How much does long-term care insurance cost? (rate calculator for sample plan)
Buying long-term care insurance is like buying a car. You pay for the core components like an engine and four wheels with tires on them, then add the options that mean the most to you.
What happens if a LTC insurer goes out of business? How common does this happen?
Each state has a guaranty fund to protect policyholders from an insurance company that goes out of business. This is an extremely rare situation with long-term care insurance. This article explains what happens to your coverage if a company is declared insolvent.

When most outsiders think of riding in the Green Mountain State, most immediately think of one of two places: East Burke, with its ultra-deluxe Kingdom Trails, and Mount Snow, home of one of the most legendary race courses on the pro circuit. But the truth is, there are lots of great, almost-secret stashes here—and no place proves it more than the Perry Hill trail network in Waterbury. Unless of course you add in the nearly endless network of trails in nearby Stowe, which local riders are working to link to Perry Hill through a Ride Center project with IMBA.

Bullpen catcher. Not a particularly high-paying job, relative to the other players, but no stress at all. You don't have to catch the actual game, you just have to warm up the bullpen pitcher. Catch the ball, throw the ball back to the pitcher. How easy is that?

On this day where you're so messed it's clear
Can't explain the (world you roam?)
Anyone who's been
As I walk with you, It chills me so
To hear you say "It's come to this"
And the (rats I've killed!)
In a dream, I always talk to you
You seem fine again, my sweet
Feels alright to me
Is it right for you?
Flippin' out I try to call to you
Til' you come to me
Tell me what to do
And I know it's not the same, there's no blame
(Still I bother you)
And you say it's not your deal, it's mine to fear(feel?)
(Follow along, ?)
Come on out(alive?) I know you'll sing with me
I won't sing to you
It's not a thing I do
Has it been a different feel for you?
Wholesomeness was gone along
Is it something new?
And I know it's now the same, there's no blame
(Still I bother you)
And you say it's not true, dear, it's mine to fear
(We won't coexist)(I'm coming through ?)
Any way you're not the same, it's the pain (blame?)
(Follow along, son)(follow through)?
It's so angering that comes to me
Does it come to you?
Are we really through ?
Any guy would do this thing for me
It's not much to ask
Why can't you?
I'm not gonna say I've had my way
You sure saw to that
What else can I do?
You promised so much, lied with every touch
I believed in you.

Mt. Juliet city commissioners are opposed to helping finance Wilson County's proposed Expo Center, although Wilson County Mayor Randall Hutto expects that Mt. Juliet would gain about $80,000 a year in tax revenues from the project.
Mt. Juliet hotels and restaurants would be among the beneficiaries of the additional business produced by the proposed Expo Center, according to Hutto, and that new business would generate the additional tax revenues for the city, Hutto said.
However, Mt. Juliet officials are skeptical about how much benefit the city would actually receive from an Expo Center 15 miles from Mt. Juliet, since the center would be located at the James E. Ward Agricultural Center/Wilson County Fairgrounds in Lebanon.
"I don't see people driving from the fairgrounds, bypassing restaurants and motels in Lebanon, to come to stay or eat in Mt. Juliet," said Mt. Juliet Vice Mayor James Maness.
Unless all the motels and hotels in Lebanon were full, Maness said, he doesn't see how Mt. Juliet would benefit.
"Sales go down in Mt. Juliet when the (Wilson County) fair is going on," he added. "So the only possible benefit I see is if there is overflow from Lebanon."
Hutto also pointed out, in a letter he recently sent to Mt. Juliet Mayor Ed Hagerty seeking the city's financial assistance with building the Expo Center, that Mt. Juliet could benefit from the proposed center by obtaining rights for its direct use, in addition to the center's economic ripple effect.
"The City of Mt. Juliet would get free billboard advertising and two free booths at every expo, as well as free meeting space when they wanted it," Hutto proposed.
A study by the Business and Economic Research Center at MTSU supports Hutto's view of the proposed center's economic effect on Mt. Juliet. The study is the source of Hutto's estimated $80,000 in additional tax revenues for the city, based on the populations and numbers of hotels and motels in Wilson County, in Mt. Juliet, and in Lebanon.
The study estimated that 36 percent of all jobs and revenues from the project would benefit Mt. Juliet.
During its construction phase, the Expo Center would generate 135 jobs, including about 49 jobs for Mt. Juliet residents, according to the study's findings.
Three weeks ago, the Mt. Juliet city commissioners requested that District 17 State Sen. Mae Beavers and State Reps. Susan Lynn and Mark Pody, of District 57 and District 46, respectively, take no action on a request from the Wilson County Commission for the state to allow the county to increase the hotel occupancy privilege tax up to 3 percent. This additional tax was proposed to fund the Expo Center, an idea that was rejected by the Mt. Juliet City Commission at that time.
In a letter he sent to county commissioners this past weekend, Mt. Juliet City Manager Kenny Martin expressed his concerns about the proposed tax. "It will cause our hotel and motel taxes to become some of the highest, if not the highest in the country, much less the state," Martin wrote.
Two hotel brand new to Mt. Juliet that "we have been working with for many, many months" to recruit to the city probably will go elsewhere if the taxes are raised, according to Martin. The hotel developers won't make their final decisions to locate in Mt. Juliet until the tax issue is settled, he added.
"While we wait, I just hope neither of these two developers take their $15 million investments to a surrounding county," Martin's letter to the county commissioners warned. "We stand to lose nearly $30 million of investment and nearly 200 jobs, not to mention the increased sales and property tax revenues that would be generated as a result of two new hotels coming to our city, county, and state."
Maness expressed similar concerns, noting that representatives of one major hotel chain have said, "Their business plan doesn't work if they have to figure in that much extra in taxes."
Maness added, "What we would lose would last forever."
Martin said he isn't against the Expo Center, but he does question the need for supplemental funding. "I am a fan of the fair and the fairgrounds," he wrote to the county commissioners. "I would even be a fan of the Expo Center if it were located in a proper location and had a sound funding mechanism and sound funding proposal."
Still, as it currently is proposed, Martin called the center "a very bad idea and proposal" and stated, "If it's such a great idea, it should be able to fund itself."
Jim Bradshaw, who serves on both the Mt. Juliet City Commission and the Wilson County Commission, said he has voted against raising the tax rate to fund the project on every occasion when it has been brought before the county commission. He also voted against raising the admission price for the county fair to fund the new center.
"If it can be built and it can fund itself, I would be for it," Bradshaw said. "I would even reconsider a raise in the fair admission fee if that was the only funding source used for this project."
He said County Mayor Hutto presented a 48-page document to the county commissioners to support the project, but "it's just not sold me."
Bradshaw noted that while Pody said he doesn't think there are enough votes to pass the tax in the Tennessee House, Pody will continue to negotiate for some increase since that was what the county commission wants him to do.
Of course, for the bill to pass, it would also need approval from the Tennessee Senate.
Meanwhile, Lebanon Mayor Phillip Craighead said Lebanon hasn't yet decided what it will do about the county's project.
"It depends on the investment and the returns," he said. "Our first priority is passing the entertainment zoning for the city."
Craighead added that the Lebanon City Council would be willing to look at the county's proposal, but would want to see an entire package. The city is already involved in planning the $40 million Cumberland Center, which would serve some of the same needs as the Expo Center.
"We will look at the plans and decide if we think there is room for both," Craighead said. "I'm open to seeing the plans, but since Mt. Juliet is out, I would want to see what the county's package to finance this looks like without Mt. Juliet."
In his recent letter to Hagerty, Hutto requested that Mt. Juliet agree to pay the county $50,000 per year for the next 20 years as the city's portion to finance a county Expo Center, since the city doesn't want extra taxes.
In the letter, Hutto said he was requesting financing from both Mt. Juliet and Lebanon, with the sum requested from Lebanon set at $100,000 per year due to its greater number of motels and hotels.
After discussing the proposal at their regular meeting last week, the Mt. Juliet city commissioners agreed to draft a letter telling Hutto thanks for the offer, but that the city isn't interested.

Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals' New Drug Application Accepted for Review by FDA Mallinckrodt's MNK-395 – diclofenac sodium topical solution 2% w/w accepted for filing by U.S. Food and Drug Administration Business Wire ST. LOUIS -- August 22, 2013 Mallinckrodt (NYSE: MNK) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for filing the New Drug Application (NDA) for MNK-395. MNK-395 is referred to in the application as PENNSAID^® (diclofenac sodium topical solution) 2% w/w, studied in the treatment of the pain of osteoarthritis of the knee. The NDA was resubmitted by Mallinckrodt on August 7, 2013, in answer to a Complete Response Letter from the FDA that included the request for an additional pharmacokinetic study. "We have a diverse portfolio focused on pain management, and are committed to providing options for patients who suffer from osteoarthritis of the knee," said Mark Trudeau, Chief Executive Officer and President, Mallinckrodt. "We are pleased that the FDA accepted the application for filing. If approved, this product will be an important addition to the Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals product line." Mallinckrodt continues to market PENNSAID (diclofenac sodium topical solution) 1.5% w/w, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee. Under the terms of a U.S. Licensing and Development Agreement with Nuvo Research signed in June 2009, Mallinckrodt is responsible for managing development activities for PENNSAID 2%. PENNSAID^® (diclofenac sodium topical solution) 1.5% w/w INDICATIONS AND USAGE PENNSAID^® (diclofenac sodium topical solution) 1.5% w/w is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) indicated for the treatment of signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee(s). IMPORTANT RISK INFORMATION WARNING: CARDIOVASCULAR AND GASTROINTESTINAL RISK Cardiovascular Risk Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, myocardial infarction, and -- stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may increase with duration of use. Patients with cardiovascular disease or risk factors for cardiovascular disease may be at greater risk. -- PENNSAID is contraindicated in the perioperative setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Gastrointestinal Risk NSAIDs cause an increased risk of serious gastrointestinal adverse events including bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the stomach or -- intestines, which can be fatal. These events can occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms. Elderly patients are at greater risk for serious gastrointestinal events. CONTRAINDICATIONS *PENNSAID is also contraindicated in patients: *with a known hypersensitivity to diclofenac sodium or any other component of PENNSAID *who have experienced asthma, urticaria, or allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs. Severe, rarely fatal anaphylactic-like reactions to NSAIDs have been reported in such patients WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS *Elevation of one or more liver tests may occur during therapy with NSAIDs. PENNSAID should be discontinued immediately if abnormal liver tests persist or worsen. *Use with caution in patients with fluid retention or heart failure. Hypertension can occur with NSAID treatment. Monitor blood pressure closely with PENNSAID treatment. *Long-term administration of NSAIDs can result in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury. Use PENNSAID with caution in patients at greatest risk of this reaction, including the elderly, those with impaired renal function, heart failure, liver dysfunction, and those taking diuretics and ACE-inhibitors. *Anaphylactoid reactions may occur in patients without prior exposure to PENNSAID. NSAIDs can cause serious skin adverse events such as exfoliative dermatitis, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), which can be fatal. *Do not apply to open wounds. Protect treated knee(s) from natural or artificial sunlight. Topicals such as sunscreen and bug repellent may be applied after PENNSAID treated knee(s) are completely dry. Avoid contact of PENNSAID with eyes and mucous membranes. Wash and dry hands after use. Concurrent use with oral NSAIDs should be avoided unless benefit outweighs risk and periodic laboratory evaluations are conducted. ADVERSE REACTIONS *The most common treatment-related adverse events in patients receiving PENNSAID were application site skin reactions including dry skin (32%), contact dermatitis characterized by skin erythema and induration (9%), contact dermatitis with vesicles (2%) and pruritus (4%). In a long-term safety study, contact dermatitis occurred in 13% and contact dermatitis with vesicles in 10% of patients, generally within the first 6 months of exposure, leading to a withdrawal rate for an application site event of 14%. Other common adverse events greater than placebo include: dyspepsia (9%), abdominal pain (6%), flatulence (4%), diarrhea (4%), and nausea (4%). USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS *PENNSAID should not be used in pregnant or lactating women and is not approved for use in pediatric patients.

As in past years, many of the October Term 2010 Supreme Court law clerks are joining private law firms — which welcome them with six-figure signing bonuses. These bonuses are paid on top of base salaries reflecting their seniority, as well as the usual year-end bonuses.

[font="arial;"]Each Expansive Collection Includes the New Documentary "Eastwood Directs: The Untold Story," Featuring Revealing Interviews with Celebrated Filmmakers and Actors[/font]
[font="arial;"]Burbank[/font][font="arial;"], Calif.[/font][font="arial;"], February 11, 2013 – Clint Eastwood's illustrious motion picture career has spanned more than half a century and touched generations of filmgoers. The filmmaker/actor has received five Academy Awards®[font="times new roman;"][font="arial;"][1][/font][/font][/font]and his films have grossed more than $2 billion at the domestic box office. This year marks the 38th anniversary of the relationship between Warner Bros., Clint Eastwood and Malpaso Productions, which has culminated in more than 40 films made for the studio. Now, in honor of Warner's year-long 90th anniversary celebration, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will release two new Eastwood Collections, just in time for Father's Day gift-giving. The Clint Eastwood 40 Film Collection (DVD) and the Clint Eastwood 20 Film Collection (Blu-ray™) will debut June 4, 2013, respectively priced at $179.98 SRP and $129.95 SRP. The order due date for both is April 30, 2013.
[font="arial;"]In addition to his most recent film, Trouble with the Curve, each collection will include "Eastwood Directs: The Untold Story," produced by Richard Schickel. This unprecedented new film focuses on Eastwood's directorial style as seen through the eyes of many of his producing partners and actors. It explores how Eastwood's style is unique and illustrates why he has managed to be successful for more than four decades. The major talent participating includes Martin Scorsese, Meryl Streep, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman and many others and the insights that emerge are nothing short of extraordinary. "Eastwood Directs: The Untold Story" will be making its television debut on TCM in May.[/font]
[font="arial;"]A complete list of Eastwood titles appears below.[/font]
[font="arial;"]Eastwood's relationship with Warner Bros. began in 1975 with the signing of a long-term pact, and Eastwood's Malpaso Productions moved onto the studio's storied lot. Among the many awards the actor/filmmaker has received for his work are four Oscars® and 10 nominations[font="times new roman;"][font="arial;"][2][/font][/font][/font], including Best Picture and Best Director Academy Award® wins for Unforgiven (1993) and Million Dollar Baby (2005) both of which were made at Warner Bros. Eastwood has also received five Golden Globes[font="arial;"]®[/font][font="arial;"], countless critics association accolades and Lifetime Achievement awards from, among others, the Directors Guild of America, Screen Actors Guild, the American Film Institute and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (Cecil B. DeMille Award). In addition, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences presented him with the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award. Recently, Eastwood was made a commander in the prestigious French Legion of Honor (Légion d'honneur), cited for his "body of work, his longevity and his ability to delight audiences around the globe."[/font]
[font="arial;"]Early in his career, Eastwood starred as the "Man with No Name" in A Fistful of Dollars, his first "spaghetti western," which was a box office success and drew attention to the young actor. Additional roles followed, including the role of Harry Callahan in five "Dirty Harry" films, beginning in 1971. That same year, he made his directorial debut with Play Misty for Me. Other noted Eastwood films include the Charlie Parker biography Bird; The Bridges of Madison County; In the Line of Fire; Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil; White Hunter, Black Heart; Absolute Power; Space Cowboys; Mystic River; Flags of Our Fathers; Letters from Iwo Jima; Gran Torino; and Invictus, starring Oscar® winners Morgan Freeman[/font][font="arial;"][font="times new roman;"][font="arial;"][3][/font][/font][/font][font="arial;"] and Matt Damon[/font][font="arial;"][font="times new roman;"][font="arial;"][4][/font][/font][/font][font="arial;"] in the inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela joined forces with Francois Pienaar, captain of South Africa's rugby team, to help unite their country.[/font]
