Olivia de Havilland as The Heiress, her 2nd Oscar-winning role
About the Book: Legendary actress and two-time Academy Award winner Olivia de Havilland is best known for her role as Melanie Wilkes in Gone with the Wind (1939). She often inhabited characters who were delicate, elegant, and refined. At the same time, she was a survivor with a fierce desire to direct her own destiny on and off the screen. She fought and won a lawsuit against Warner Bros. over a contract dispute that changed the studio contract system forever. She is also noted for her long feud with her fellow actress and sister Joan Fontaine―a feud that lasted from 1975 until Fontaine's death in 2013. Victoria Amador utilizes extensive interviews and forty years of personal correspondence with de Havilland to present an in-depth look at the life and career of this celebrated actress. Amador begins with de Havilland's early life―she was born in Japan in 1916 to affluent British parents who had aspirations of success and fortune in faraway countries―and her theatrical ambitions at a young age. The book then follows her career as she skyrocketed to star status, becoming one of the most well-known starlets in Tinseltown. Readers are given an inside look at her love affairs with iconic cinema figures such as James Stewart and John Huston, and her onscreen partnership with Errol Flynn, with whom she starred in The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938) and Dodge City (1939). After she moved to Europe in the mid-1950s, de Havilland became the first woman to serve as the president of the Cannes Film Festival in 1965, and remained active but selective in film and television until 1988.

Vickie L Gleason says:
I love Olivia in all her roles. She controls her characters and becomes them so you too watching also feel what her characters do!
I always enjoyed the elegant characters that Ms. de Havilland played on the screen but I did not know much about her strength of character off-screen or that she was the first female president of the Cannes Film Festival. Fascinating stuff, I'd love to know more!
Annmarie Gatti says:
Wow, I didn't know that Olivia was the first female prez of Cannes!
Julie moon says:
I love that Olivia de Havilland was always classy, quietly elegant but a real person with great depth of character and quiet strength. She is the last of the truly great women of the theater.
Robert Stein says:
Olivia de Havilland displayed a range of acting few actresses could. From the saccharine sweet Melanie in "Gone With The Wind" to the frenzy of 'Snake Pit", and her intelligent portrayal of a woman scorned and at the mercy of men who triumphed in the end in "The Heiress", de Havilland superbly brought her characters to life.
She fought the good fight too and at 102 years old de Havilland is still here, having survived the studio system and beat it.
M.T. Fisher says:
Her seemingly innocence and beauty, which shone like a beacon throughout each and every one of her pictures. Every woman wanted to be her, and every man wanted to take her home to mother.
I do not have a Twitter account, so I am posting here to enter but cannot tweet the message.
Laura A. says:
Olivia de Havilland is one of my absolute favorite actresses. She was always more than just a pretty face and brought an equality with her male costars. And even when the script wasn't that great she still gave a stellar performance!
Bruce Baldwin says:
I love her range. From the goody two shoes with a spine of steel in Gone With the Wind to the evil manipulator behind a southern heiress in Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte,, she was persuasive, understated, and intelligent – and never trashy!
Ana Roland says:
#TEAM OLIVIA (I handed out these buttons at #TCMFF)
What I love most about Dame Olivia de Havilland (who will celebrate her 103rd Birthday July 1st) is her willingness to challenge the studio system for what she believed to be unfair practices even when it kept her off the screen for two years. She didn't back down. Her fearlessness trickled down into memorable performances which garnered her an Academy Award. I love that still today she has not lost the courage of her convictions to once again undertake a groundbreaking legal case.
Audrey Larkin says:
What's not to love about her?! My favorite movie is The Heiress, how she really made us feel her pain – both by her father and by Morris and then how strong she was in the end. My favorite scene in Gone with the Wind was when she took control of the situation when the women were waiting for the men to come home from the raid in the shanty town, she pretended to scold them for drinking too much and then how kind she was to Belle Watling.
Destiny Drake says:
I would love to have one of the books about her because I can not find any books about her and I would like to know more about her and her career.
Elizabeth Shafer says:
The last of the stars from the 1930's …
Jen Crossett says:
I love this actress. The quality of films she did. My favorite one was Robin Hood. She is so classic.
Brittaney B says:
I love that both Olivia and many of her characters are feminine and delicate in appearance, but have an inward strength and fierceness equal to and sometime greater than the men. She always fought for what she believed in and remained true to herself.
I recently just finished her book Every Frenchman Has One and learned what a delightful sense of humor she has too!
Billy Slobin says:
I love so much of Olivia's work…so many iconic roles from Mid Summers Night Dream to Lady in the Cage and Hush, Hush…and the amazing role of Miss Melanie in between.
Her courageous bid for free agency from the studio system in an era when that WAS NOT done is so admirable.
My absolute favorite film she appeared in was The Male Animal which I think is a brilliant film!
I cannot read enough about Classic Hollywood and the stars that made it so great!
Javier Valverde says:
What I love most about Olivia de Havilland is her elegance and refinement. What I love about her movies is the diversity of films she made from Midsummer's Night Dream (1935) to The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938), Gone With the Wind (1939), The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex (1939), Santa Fe Trail (1940), In This Our Life (1942) and To Each His Own (1946). Those films showed what a great actress she was and helped her get away from the Errol Flynn films she had been typecast in.
Wow, this book sounds amazing! What I love about Olivia de Havilland and her movies are the many different types of characters she portrays and she never disappoints! From sweet Melanie Hamilton in GWTW to that nasty cousin Miriam in Hush…Hush Sweet Charlotte she could play them all flawlessly. I don't know much about her personal life, other than she didn't get along with her sister and that she lives in France. Obviously, I need to read this book! 🙂
Linda Robinson says:
Olivia de Havilland has range: from the gentility of Melanie Wilkes to the fierce woman in The Heiress to the institutionalized victim in The Snake Pit. Brains before beauty.
Kelly Yarter says:
She was a true lady. Despite the deep feelings she had for Errol Flynn, she never acted on them because he was still married. Who does that in Hollywood? ❤
Liliana Maria Radwanski says:
What I Love about Olivia De Havilland and her Films?
1st Movie I saw her In was Robin Hood as Maid Marion. She was stunning. The part was made for her. Gone With the Wind , The part of Melanie was meant for her. She played a strong kind lady. A character that will forever live in our Hearts.
Then I saw her in the movie that gave her the 1st of her Oscars, To Each his Own with Hohn Lund. You see Olivia age from 20's to Middle Age. You see see her having a baby by her fiancé who dies in the war. She wants someone to care for her son until she can take care of him properly. But then, her exes jealous wife and ex claim him and adopt him. She tries to get him back. By the time she is successful and tries to get her son back, he doesn't want her only his adopted mother. She decides to make a new life in Europe and doesn't see her son for 30 years. He arrives in London and she meets his train. He is his dads twin. She is so moved. Her boyfriend helps her to help her son marry his girlfriend w/ red tape. The end makes you cry. Olivia was one of the best actresses bar none. I would love this book so much
Dana Baker-Hardin says:
The thing I love most about Olivia de Havilland is that SHE IS STILL WITH US!!!
I find that so amazing and truly a GIFT to all her many fans.
The term "Living Legend" seems custom-made for this truly amazing lady.
Ann-Marie says:
Love Olivia de Havilland's range of characters. Really felt for her in "The Heiress" and then was totally wary of her in "My Cousin Rachel". A great and lovely actress.
David Hollingsworth says:
What I love about de Havilland is her lack of vanity. She portrays her characters with reality and substance. She isn't afraid to look unpolished, which makes her all the more honest and relatable. Her kind is pretty rare, and maybe that could be a reason why she has lived for so long; she is human and a great one at that.
Kari Poage says:
I've loved Olivia deHavilland since I first saw her I'm Gone with the Wind. I love her sweet smile and her ability to play both serious and light roles. She effectively portrays every emotion and is so full of grace and charm. A true icon!
Christine Mier says:
I love Olivia because she doesn't take crap from anyone! She is 102 and taking the Feud case to the Supreme Court. She let's no one push her around and I really like that about her. She went toe to toe with the big guns in Hollywood and won.
Christopher Scheer says:
I've always loved the quiet dignity with which she fills the screen. She is a quiet force with some of the most well known box office stars of all time, from Errol Flynn, to Clark Gable, to Vivian Leigh. She is NEVER overshadowed, and she always gets her fair share of the screen. Just a remarkable actress in every way.
I don't have a twitter account, but I will reply. I love Olivia , such a classic lady. Loved her in Robin Hood.
Erin Sullivan says:
I love Olivia De Havilland. She's a wonderful actress. I saw Gone With the Wind in theatres 3 months ago with my mother. I've seen it on TCM on tv so many times & I never get tired of it. I've also seen Light in the Piazza too. It's such a amazing movie taking place in Italy. She brings so much life into every character that she had portrayed in these films of hers. With her 103 birthday coming up too. Both she & I are July 1st babies too.
Cece Davis says:
I love Olivia de Havilland's voice: gentle, almost musical. Its lyrical quality draws you to her. She brings the audience in, rather than performing at the audience.
Sibby Wieland, NoirDame.com says:
There are so many reasons to love and appreciate Olivia de Havilland, for her intelligence, grace, and strength. Always a lady, she had tremendous range as an actress, from her early ingenue roles in films like Max Reinhardt's MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM, to her role in THE SNAKE PIT – a daring departure for a "star". I loved her turn in HOLD BACK THE DAWN, exemplifying what is noble and likeable about millions of "ordinary" people. Many have noted terrific performances of hers, from THE HEIRESS to GONE WITH THE WIND. She was the type of actor who brought her A game, even when they saddled her with a lame script and a co-star like Sonny Tufts.
I think that "A game" not only inspired many actresses in her wake, but also brought out something special in many of her costars. In particular, every time she was paired with Errol Flynn, in movies like THEY DIED WITH THEIR BOOTS ON, or THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD, he was clearly not only as much in love with her as the audience was, but straining to give his best performance, which makes for eight very entertaining films. As good a partner as she was to Flynn on-screen, she was also a sustaining colleague and friend to Bette Davis both on and off-screen, and they did some terrific work together.
Last but certainly not least, by standing up for herself and fighting over her contract extension with Warner Brothers, and forging what we now know as the de Havilland law, she helped numerous colleagues not only at Warner but every other studio in town. Her actions are still helping several modern actors and musicians today get out of ridiculous contracts and rebuild their negotiating positions. I tip my hat to her for all those reasons!
Amy Duesing says:
I grew up thinking Olivia was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen. I remember watching Gone With The Wind as a child and thinking she was the epitome of grace and delicate beauty. She has a quiet strength on screen…never competing with other actors but never yielding her presence. As an actress myself, I've tried to achieve comfort in roles and harmony with other players. She's a great example! Olivia is a treasure and the fact that she's still with us is so special.
Tony Lilich says:
I never have followed her.I would love get a copy..
Sophie Katergos says:
The golden age of cinema just wouldn't be complete without Olivia. She was a sweet and beautiful soul who was such a joy to watch, especially opposite Vivienne Leigh in Gone With the Wind, but for me it's her performance in Robin Hood that always makes me smile.
Rina Horenian says:
She totally transforms herself into the character she is portraying. The viewer is transfixed by her acting prowess. I love her!!!
I adore Olivia. Her roles were so incredible. She IS Melanie Wilkes. She IS Maid Marian. Not to mention she basically changed the entire way Hollywood function. She has power, she has strength, she has heart, she has class. What is not to love about Olivia? And still fighting for her rights as a centurion if her recent lawsuit is any indication (Still love Feud though).
Bianca B. says:
Olivia de Havilland is an onscreen legend! She's one of the few Hollywood powerhouses that's still with us. The characters she portrayed always captivated the audience. I know when I'm watching her films, I always wonder what will happen next. Her acting is very convincing for each role. I'm certain she's worked a long time to perfect her craft. She really is a versatile entertainer.

Gillian Kelly says:
I love her naturalness, and her believability in a variety of very diverse roles across different genres, from high drama (The Heiress, Gone with the Wind) to screwball comedy (Princess O'Rourke, The Male Animal), and the fact that she is a fighter! Love Livvy.
I love Olivia de Havilland because she exuded strength while being utterly feminine.
What I appreciate most about this underappreciated actress is her prominence in the Golden Age of Hollywood cinema. She worked with the likes of James Cagney, Errol Flynn, and Bette Davis. She appeared in iconic films the likes of Gone With the Wind, Captain Blood, The Adventures of Robin Hood, and Dodge City. She could be in any sort of film – romantic comedy, drama, action/adventure, and so on. If you Google 'Face of Classic Hollywood' her image should appear instantly. I mean, if David O Selznick says he would give anything to have you in his film (Gone With the Wind) then that speaks for itself.
I love the range of Olivia De Havilland acting. I think her best role was in the strawberry blonde. She played a totally modern woman who in the end didn't believe it herself. Her acting ran from the exotic to the girl next door.
Anne Mytych says:
Olivia always plays classy roles of women who are both soft spoken and strong. Viewers can identify with the characters she plays because she is so authentic. One of her best roles is Washington Square. She falls head over heels in love after years of feeling like a spinster. She puts herself wholeheartedly into her relationship and defends her man to her father. However, once she realizes she's been duped, she turns cold and becomes strong as steel. This man will not fool her again. I love her strength and her talent.
Chris Mathews says:
I was born in the mid eighties and when I was four years old I saw The Adventures of Robin Hood for the first time on our tv we had in the basement. I remember the grace she showed in the role of Maid Marian, and the chemistry between her and Errol Flynn. This film a long with its performances is what I attribute as what sparked my love of classic c=film.
I don't have twitter and i am entering in the contest. Because one book is available. I LOVE OLD MOVIES. Love Olivia , in the Snake pit, to each his own, the heiress. She is going to 103. Such a great actress.

We've been spoilt by location sharing for a while now. Dropping a pin means it is no longer necessary to pass on a strong set of instructions on how to find your exact location. The recent roll out of live location sharing means that is no longer necessary to explain that you're going to be late as the people you're meeting can simply track your location as you make your way to them.
Obviously, however, broadcasting your live location creates a number of privacy and security issues that need to be considered before you tell everybody where you are. Other things to consider are the amount of battery power you're using whilst you're pinging the world your location and whether the service you're using is actually up to the task of letting everybody know exactly where you are.
According to the New York Times there are a companies of companies that give you the ability to share your location. We all know about dropping pins using Apple and Facebook services but recently Google have added live location sharing to their Google Maps app and Snapchat has recently added a map function that allows their users to share their location.
Of all of these services, the Snapchat map is the most controversial due to the relative young age of Snapchat users and the ease with which they can befriend random strangers on the platform. Apple users can share their location live via Apple Maps, Messenger and Find my Friends apps whilst the Facebook live location sharing service is found in its Messenger app.
The New York Times found that the Apple's Find my Friends app and Facebook's Messenger offered the quickest and most accurate live location sharing. Google Maps on the other hand, broadcasts your location in bursts of between 5 minutes an hour, to save battery power.
After their testing the New York Times also offer a number of tips on location sharing best practices.
If you're meeting somebody get into the habit of sharing your location via Apple's iMessage, Google Maps or Facebook Messenger for a definite amount of time, like an hour. This will stop you having to explain where you are every 5 minutes until you arrive at your destination.
Sharing your location using Apple's Find My Friends, Facebook Messenger or Google Maps with your romantic partner can allow for smoother communication bewtween the two of you. For example you won't be ignored for hours if you don't send them a message because you know they are working or at the gym etc.
Apple's Find My Friends offers a great way for worried parents to track their children and know that they're safe.
If you're meeting friends at an outdoor party or picnic it can be a good idea to share your location so that they don't have to walk around looking for you when they first arrive.
That last one doesn't work, however, if you're meeting indoors, which brings us to best practices on when not to share your location.
Most of these apps are not built for indoor use so they won't send out an accurate location and they will just waste your battery.
Also, if you're out hiking in the country your location services might not be up to scratch to the reduced cell service you'll be getting.
If you have kids you should make sure they're not sharing their locations strangers or bullies. Both Apple and Android offer parents the ability to restrict the settings their children have access to.
Don't share your location publicly. It is easy enough to create links that can then be shared with people you trust rather than broadcasting your location to everybody in the world.

You may actually be thinking of the expulsion of the Acadians, as immortalized in Longfellow's "Evangeline" (which is set in Grand Pre, Nova Scotia). The Acadians were expelled because some of them refused… Read More

Why were the Arcadians removed from Scotia by the British?
The Acadians came from Arcadia an ancient region of what is now the country of Greece and they were not removed by the British.

The clinical impact of COVID-19 on cancer patients
As patients with cancer may be at greater risk from COVID-19, there is a clear need to collect large datasets from representative patient cohorts in order to get a complete understanding of the clinical impact of COVID-19 on cancer patients. Therefore, the COVID-19 and Cancer Consortium (CCC19) gathered clinical reports on infected COVID-19 cancer patients from 104 institutions. Initial analyses of this data set indicate that the mortality risk of these patients was high and associated with general population risk factors as well as those unique to cancer patients.
The effects of COVID-19 on patients with cancer remains poorly understood. The currently published reports are small and often focus on one specific region or suffer from several other limitations. Patients with cancer are often older, present with comorbidities and need to visit hospitals at a regular basis. As a result, they may be at greater risk to get infected with COVID-19. Moreover, due to their cancer and/or cancer treatment, these patients have a decreased immune system and a generally lower performance status as compared to the general population. Therefore, there is an urgent need to collect data from a larger and more representative cohort to study the impact of COVID-19 on cancer patients.
To this end, the COVID-19 and Cancer Consortium (CCC19) was founded on March 15th, 2020. The consortium is open to site-level participation in the United States and Canada but also to reports from anonymous individuals in Argentina, Canada, Europe, the United States, and the United Kingdom. In total, 104 institutions are participating and 928 cases were included in this first analysis. Both real-time reports as well as reports after COVID-19 illness were included.
In total, 50% of the enrolled patients were male and the median age of the study participants was 66 years. This is much higher than the median age reported in other, more general, COVID-19 reports and is consistent with cancer diagnosis. Of note, approximately one third of the patients was older than 75 years. Most of the patients were white (50%) while African, American and Hispanic origin accounted for 16% of patients each. At the time of COVID-19 infection, 39% of the patients were on active anti-cancer treatment and 43% of the patients had active (measurable) cancer. Most patients (68%) had an ECOG performance status (ECOG PS) of 0-1 and 8% of the patients had an ECOG PS of 2. Half of the patients (52%) had never smoked, 37% were former smokers and 5% currently smoked (from 6% of the patients the smoking status remained unknown). The most common cancer types were breast cancer (21%), prostate cancer (16%), gastrointestinal cancers (12%), lymphoma (11%) and thoracic cancers (10%).
After a median follow-up of 21 days, 121 patients (13%) have died, with all deaths occurring within 30 days of their COVID-19 diagnosis. Unfortunately, this death rate among cancer patients is twice as high as the 'average' COVID-19 death rate across the globe, which is estimated at 6.5%. Male sex (17%), former smoker (20%), age above 75 years (25%), active stable/responding cancer (14%), active progressing cancer (25%) and an ECOG PS of two or more (35%) were independently associated with increased mortality. The only characteristic that was associated with a lower mortality rate (2%) was the absence of comorbidities, although the number of deaths in that group was very small (N=3) and no statistical significance was reached. Furthermore, no statistically significant different death rates were seen based on race or ethnicity. Of the cancer patients with a COVID-19 infection, 50% had to be hospitalized and 23% of them died. In addition, 14% of the infected patients had to be admitted to the intensive care unit of whom 38% died. Especially in the subgroup of patients above 75 years of age and in the subgroup of patients with an ECOG PS of 2 or more, very high death rates (54% and 68%, respectively) were observed. Finally, 12% of the patients had to be intubated of whom 43% died. Again, patients of older age or with a weak performance status were of much higher risk of dying (59% and 85%, respectively).
The mortality rate among cancer patients with a COVID-19 infection was high at 13%. This mortality rate was associated with general population risk factors (such as sex and smoking status) and with unique cancer-related factors (disease progression, etc.). Independent factors that are associated with increased mortality were older age, male sex, former smoker, number of comorbidities, an ECOG PS ≥ 2 and active cancer. Interestingly, also combination treatment with azithromycine and hydroxychloroquine proved to be associated with an increased mortality. However, the validity of this observation remains uncertain due to high risk of residual confounding factors. In addition, older age, poor performance status and progressing cancer were strongly associated with increased mortality, especially in subsets of patients that were admitted to the intensive care unit and/or had to be intubated. Larger sample size and longer follow-up are even though needed to more completely understand the impact of COVID-19 on specific patient subsets over time.

Pakistan Just Broke The World Record For The Hottest April Day — Ever
Tags: Climate Change, opinion
By Amanda Froelich via Truth Theory
The effects of climate change are already being witnessed. Last week, Pakistan hit 122.3 degrees Fahrenheit (50.2 degrees C), the highest temperature recorded for the month of April — ever. The sweltering temperature was reported by the city of Nawabshah in Sindh, then was later confirmed by the Pakistan Meteorological Department.
The residents of Nawabshah are well-acquainted with extreme temperatures. After all, highs of 53 degrees C are oftentimes recorded during May, ahead of the summer monsoon. The issue is, scorching temperatures continue to rise.
Temperature records for the region extend back to 1930. The previous Pakistan April record was 122 degrees Fahrenheit (50 degrees C), and was reported just last year. This year, dozens of people collapsed with heatstroke from the "unbearable" heat.
As Al Jazeera reports, the World Meteorological Organization has not yet confirmed the record. However, respected climatologist Christopher Burt said the Nawabshah reading is the highest temperature "yet reliably observed in Earth in modern times."
The news is concerning, as Nawabshah set a new record in March, as well. A reading of 113.9 degrees Fahrenheit (45.5 degrees C) was the highest March temperature recorded in Pakistan. Reportedly, residents in India and South Asia have been experiencing higher-than-normal temperatures, as well.
In many areas, it is normal for temperatures to rise before the monsoon rains begin to fall. However, more records are likely to be broken across India and Pakistan. According to a study conducted last year, mean temperatures across India have risen 0.5 degrees C over the last 50 years. Heat waves have also become more common.

My favorite movie of all time.
The Shawshank Redemption has great performances, extremely well written script and story all leading to a deeply emotional climax! One of the best dramas of all time!

Does the novella explain why Fat Ass is in prison? He seems too much like a cry baby to have committed any crimes.
Why does Andy talk in code to Red at the movie about getting Rita Hayworth since they have already done business before and Andy asked for the rock hammer in the same way?
Why is Captain Hadley so cruel?

Home News Breaking News Jonathan Pollard's Attorneys Slam NY Times 'Don't Trust This Spy' Op-Ed
Jonathan Pollard's Attorneys Slam NY Times 'Don't Trust This Spy' Op-Ed
Eliot Lauer and Jacques Semmelman, who have served as pro bono attorneys for jailed Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard since 2000, slammed a recent New York Times op-ed on Pollard titled "Don't Trust This Spy."
The op-ed penned by M.E. Bowman-former deputy general counsel for national security law at the FBI and former deputy of the U.S. Office of the National Counterintelligence Executive-claims that Pollard "sold the daily report from the U.S. Navy's Sixth Fleet Ocean Surveillance Facility in Rota, Spain."
That allegation "is nowhere to be found in the public court record," Lauer and Semmelman wrote in a Jerusalem Post op-ed that responded to Bowman's article.
"Bowman makes a series of false and inflammatory allegations that are contradicted by the public court record," they wrote. "Since Bowman would be committing a crime were he to reveal anything contained in the non-public, classified portion of the court record, it is fair to presume that he is not doing so. Since his assertions are nowhere to be found in (and indeed, are contradicted by) the public court record, the only possible conclusion is that his allegations are false."
Pollard, who is in his 29th year in U.S. prison, is the only person to receive a life sentence for passing information to a U.S. ally (Israel) without intent to harm America. Declassified CIA documents published in 2012 by the National Security Archive at George Washington University revealed that the intelligence Pollard conveyed to his handlers was limited to information on Pakistan, Arab states, and the Soviet Union. The handlers "did not request or receive from Pollard intelligence concerning some of the most sensitive U.S. national security resources," the documents said.
Bowman's op-ed contrasts with the positions taken by a number of officials in the intelligence community and elsewhere who have called for Pollard's release, including former Secretary of State George Shultz; William Webster, head of the FBI at the time of Pollard's arrest; former U.S. Sen. David Durenberger, who served as chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at the time of Pollard's conviction; former U.S. Rep. Lee Hamilton, who served as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee at the time of Pollard's sentencing; former Assistant Secretary of Defense Lawrence Korb; and former National Security Advisor Robert McFarlane, who served under President Ronald Reagan when Pollard was investigated.

TTF: Deputy Home Minister Datuk Mohd Azis Jamman announced that changing addresses on identification cards will soon require supporting documents such as utility bills and quit rent receipt (see news item below).
According to him, the move was to avoid problems of inaccurate information on identity cards after such cases in which "50 to 100 people" had the same address.
As good as the move may be, this guy is serving under the government of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, a man who happened also to serve as Prime Minister from 1981 to 2003.
Under Mahathir's previous watch, the Government of Malaysia (GoM) quietly granted citizenship to immigrants in Sabah in exchange for their votes.
Ten years into retirement, on the 17th of January 2013, Mahathir defended the granting of those citizenships as "lawful" and denied knowledge of any political considerations.
However, in December 2017, months ahead of the 14th general election, he admitted that the move was a politically motivated "mistake" but stopped short of apologising for it.
And here we have Mohd Aziz telling us that the GoM is determined to keep things "black and white" insofar as addresses on ICs go.
So who's going to assure us that the GoM will no longer grant ICs to foreigners to secure the DAP's strongholds in Malaysia?
Is the GoM willing to serve us with the complete list of foreigners – which currently is in the possession of a person I know – granted citizenships by Mahathir back in the eighties and nineties?
KUALA LUMPUR: Changing addresses on identification cards will soon require supporting documents such as utility bills and quit rent receipt.
Bernama reported that this new ruling will come into force May 2.
Deputy Home Minister Datuk Mohd Azis Jamman said the move was to avoid problems of inaccurate information on identity cards after such cases in which "50 to 100 people" had the same address.
"There are addresses where the area is just an empty plot of land with no house. We do not want these things to repeat," he was quoted as saying at a press conference in Putrajaya today.
Using inaccurate addresses would lead to difficulties in matters that involve government agencies such as the Election Commission (EC) when it comes to voter registration as well as tracking down individuals in police investigations.
For those renting homes, they have to produce their rental agreement or rental receipt as well as other documents to prove they are in fact residing at this new address.
He informed that those who failed to produce such documents, they would need to obtain a confirmation letter from either a penghulu, village head, homeowner, members of Parliament or employers to support the application for a change of address.

Mission Viejo is too much for Carson
Upland apartment fire
Montclair 'Village' project
What cities are in IE?
By The Inland Valley Daily Bulletin | dailybulletin@dfmdev.com |
October 2, 2010 at 12:00 a.m.
Carson's defense actually managed to rattle Mission Viejo a handful of times on Friday night, forcing four turnovers and stopping the Diablos on a crucial fourth-down play.
But the problem that has haunted the Colts frequently so far this season was also apparent during their 42-21 road setback in south Orange County against one of California's top teams.
The host Diablos, the top-ranked team in the CIF Southern Section's Pac-5 Division, had 10 different plays where they were able to gain more than 15 yards. Two of them were first-quarter touchdowns. The Colts were behind, 21-0, early.
"Our defense needs to improve," said Carson linebacker Trevor Gagau, a clear standout while the Colts were finally able to unsettle Mission Viejo in the second and third quarters.
Gagau cited a lack of execution as the Colts' biggest deficiency, saying "I wouldn't change (the players) for the world."
Since holding Mater Dei to 10 points in the season opener, Carson (2-2) has given up 125 in its past three games. There were, however, flashes of brilliance on Friday.
After Mission Viejo (5-0) opened the game with touchdowns on its first three possessions, the Diablos were stymied for turnovers on three straight drives. Two were forced fumbles and the other was an interception of Diablos quarterback Andrew Bridgford – in all three cases, Gagau came up with the ball.
That allowed Carson to get within 14 points on running back Myles Johnson's 1-yard touchdown run early in the third quarter.
"They're just a good team," Carson coach Elijah Asante said. "There's a reason that a lot of people they think they're No. 1 in the state."

provigil to buy TYLER YAREMCHUK: Brayden Point, Matt Tkachuk, Auston Matthews, Patrik Laine, Jake Guentzel, and Kasperi Kapanen are all RFA's who are on teams that could be tight to the cap when all is said and done. But I'm going to give two names who I think could potentially hold out next season.
First is Mitch Marner. Auston Matthews is going to be priority number one for Kyle Dubas, which could push Marner's signing date back a little. We know that Dubas isn't afraid to wait until literally the final hour to get a deal done and I get the sense that Marner won't be in the mood to take a discount if neither Nylander or Matthews did.
Kyle Connor is in a similar spot to Marner. He is a fantastic young player on a team that has both tremendous offensive talent and salary cap troubles. Patrik Laine is also an RFA, so Connor is no doubt priority number two for the Jets.

Auston Matthews will be an RFA at the end of the 2018-19 season and for me, it won't be automatic that the deal gets done right away. Taking Connor McDavid's deal from a few years ago into consideration, Matthews will want something similar if not more with inflation and the idea that McDavid signed for slightly less than he could have.
Matthews seems like a player with a strong business sense who won't for less than what he thinks he deserves and given the Nylander and Tavares deals along with Mitch Marner also coming up on the end of his ELC, getting Matthews locked up could be a long process.
WYATT ZIEGER: The Lightning are a team that would really benefit from the cap going up the extra 4 million as its expected too. Especially if they have a hope in hell of re-signing Brayden Point.
Currently 2nd on the team in points and first in goals (20G, 17A) Point, is due for a hefty raise, even larger than Nylander's. The problem for Tampa is with under 2 million in cap space, the Lightning are strapped for cash. Tampa does have 11 million coming off the books in; Stralman, Coburn, and Girardi but Kucherov salary doubles to 9.5 next year and Gourde another 4 million as well. On top of all that Vasilevskiy is also an RFA the season after and you have to start worrying about him.
Point, is one of the most underrated players in hockey and should be priority number one for Tampa this offseason.
We are pretty much at the 1/3 mark of the season. Who is your Stanley Cup favourite?
TYLER YAREMCHUK: There's a list of teams I really like this season. The Preds and Jets look good out West while the Leafs and Capitals both look unstoppable at times. I wanted to find a sexier pick, but I gotta go with Tampa Bay. Every year the "experts" call them the Stanley Cup favourite and every year they seem to lose out, but this year seems different. Their roster is loaded, they have some fresh young talent making an impact, and I like to think that they've learned their lesson from years past.
IAN SHEPPARD: The Tampa Bay Lightning. The Lightning are currently leading the league with 43 points and have two players in the top-10 in points. They lead the league in goals and have a roster stacked with talent, with a top-6 lineup that can produce points consistently and a defensive unit that is loaded with all-star talent.
They are without a former Vezina-Candidate in Andrei Vasilevskiy in net who is out with a broken foot, but they have been able to survive thus far while they await his return. Tampa has been on the verge of a Cup the last 5 years or so and for me right now this could be their year.
WYATT ZIEGER: Pave the way for Smashville baby.
They have the best defense in the NHL, the reigning Vezina winner, Pekka Rinne, and 4 complete lines.
The only Nashville is missing is an elite scorer but the Predators share the load offensively, which is another reason that they are so good.
Johansen leads the team with 24 points in 28 games, Forsberg leads in goals with 14. It's hard to poke any holes in the roster and it's almost scary to think that they'll be better by the end of the season. David Poile, probably the best GM in the NHL, has picks and players to add high-end scoring, I'd personally like to see them go in on Panarin.
Nashville is a team chock-full of playoff experience and a not so distant Stanley Cup Final's loss to avenge, look for them to make it over the hump this year.
With Seattle officially coming into the NHL, which city would you most like to see get an NHL franchise (via relocation)?
TYLER YAREMCHUK: I really want to say Quebec City, but it just isn't realistic until the dollar figures itself out. That's unfortunate because I think the league would really benefit from an eighth Canadian team. The obvious answer to this question is Houston.
Arizona has been on life support for what seems like a decade and now that they'll be moving to the Central Division when Seattle shows up, the transition from the desert to Houston will be rather seamless. Houston is a good sports city and they have a rather large TV market, which is huge for the NHL and their Board of Governors. It isn't working in Arizona and if they don't figure out their arena situation soon, that organization could be H-Town bound.
IAN SHEPPARD: I have to pick a Canadian city. Especially when the next American city to have its name tossed into the hat is Houston and that just doesn't feel right. With 7 teams in Canada currently, four in the west and three in the east, I think to balance things out, putting a team in Quebec City or potential Hamilton would be the best thing to see for hockey fans up north.
WYATT ZIEGER: I'll say Houston for a couple of reasons.
For starters, Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta, has already expressed interest in an NHL franchise and has an arena for them to play in, thats important.
There are also two possible scenarios for a Houston team to come into the league; one being expansion, the other relocation.
If the NHL finally pulls the plug on hockey in Arizona, they could relocate to Houston, who would remain in the Central division and create an instant rivalry with the Dallas Stars.
Expansion out West once again would also cause a need for a new team out East to even out the conferences ala Quebec.

If you're ready to drink less soda but don't want to give up your daily dose of bubbly, try making easy sodas at home with natural ingredients. These DIY soda recipes are low on sugar, but high on flavor.
Your New Year's resolution to kick your daily soda habit is a good one—just one can packs in nearly 50g of sugar, and artificial sweeteners in diet versions aren't much better for you. Still, going cold turkey may not be the answer: total deprivation can make it easier to "snap" and fall off the wagon…hard.
If you're looking for a refreshing, bubbly mid-afternoon fix that packs a bit more punch than sparking water, try making your own. These three simple soda bases have just a handful of fresh ingredients and spices that deliver bold flavor and fizzy refreshment with a fraction of the sugar in store-bought soda. They're also free of preservatives and chemicals. If you imbibed a bit too much over the holidays, these homemade sodas are also a great alternative to alcohol. And no special equipment is required: Just mix the syrup with seltzer water and enjoy.
If you like the spicy, caramel notes of a traditional soda, try making your own Cinnamon Spice Soda. The syrup gets warm, fragrant notes from cinnamon and cardamom, and a kick from whole black peppercorns. Go dark (a little extra syrup per cup of seltzer) for extra body in your bubbly.
Sunshine in a glass is this golden Grapefruit Soda, made with fresh lemon and pink grapefruit. If you like the tart refreshment of a lemon-lime soda, this homemade Grapefruit Soda has plenty of pucker and a balanced (not cloying) sweetness. Garnish with a wedge of pink or ruby red grapefruit that will perfume the glass as you sip.
This vegetable based bubbly is a take on Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray soda, a staple of kosher delis since the 1870's. This Celery Soda is herbaceous and slightly peppery with a wonderfully dry finish. Fresh lemon rind perks up each glass. Save the tender inner stalks of you celery, leaves attached, for a beautiful garnish.

Q: Which technology ( SQL/NoSQL) to use for real-time data aggregation I need to design a near real-time system where documents  ( with fields:id,keywords,timestamp ) are getting added to the system. The requirement is to  get top-k keywords from the documents added to the system in last x minutes. The typical document addition rate is around 100 documents/sec, which may increase in the future ( hence technology should be horizontally scalable ).
I am thinking of using solr-facets ( with sharding ) to generate the top-k keywords, where I am a bit concerned about the high writes/sec for solr. Another option is to use Cassandra, but not sure how it will scale for range queries ( to compute aggregates ), as OrderPreservingPartitioner could make it difficult to distribute the load.

A: This sounds like a Complex Event Processing problem, not a database or search problem.  You don't care so much about keeping the data as you do about getting keyword trends or something similar in realtime. Some vendors/libraries that you'd want to look at are (with many omissions):
Microsoft/.NET:
StreamInsight - Microsoft's CEP offering
Reactive Extensions for .NET - extensions to .NET for stream processing
Java:
Esper - very popular OSS stream processing library
Storm - stream processing on Hadoop, likely to scale to extremely large data volumes
3rd Party / Proprietary (Won't comment on these, don't know enough about them):
StreamBase
Aleri

A: use sql and nosql at the same time.
use sql for queries and use nosql for complex datas.
write x2 code. and solve every problem with their needs in mind.

Christmas Tree…. – Wet and Windy Cottage…….
made of silver birch…. and a bit of string.
Not much space for a tree this year in the conservatory, as there is a bed settee which is going to be needed at New Year…………… so I improvised.
A quick wander in the woods at the side of our field, and I found some silver birch branches which has broken off the tree, so I didn't even need to cut any down.
It is in a boggy area and the trees struggle to grow.
Unlike the moss, lichen and fungus.
There was only 1 branch that needed cutting the rest were the right size. Once I had strung it up, I hung it in the window. It was heavier than a thought it would be.
I then added the lights and some decoration of fruit baubles and birds.

Mansour, General Motors study manufacturing of electric cars in Egypt
Thu, 02 Dec 2021 - 05:33 GMT
Subsidising the purchase of electric cars in Canada is an inefficient way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions that is not cost effective, a study revealed yesterday. — AFP-Relaxnews pic
CAIRO - 2 December 2021: General Motors and Mansour Motors have agreed to study the joint manufacturing of electric cars in Egypt, according to Chairman of the Board of Directors of Mansour Motors, Mohamed Mansour.
Mansour said that according to a memorandum signed on Wednesday, the two companies will study production requirements and volumes and the incentives they may need from the government, without specifying what form those incentives may take, according to Reuters.
"Sort of a government support, let's see how we can work together... That will be a new capital investment that we do on our part, and of course we hope to use Egypt as an export hub to Africa," he said.
"We will start with a team, and we hope, within the next two or three months, a concrete study to be submitted to the Egyptian government," he added.
In a related context, Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly stressed, during his meeting with Mohamed Mansour, Chairman of the Mansour Group, and Steve Kiefer, President of General Motors International, the great importance the government attaches to the localization of the auto industry.
Madbouly pointed out that the Egyptian government is preparing to launch the "Automotive Industry Strategy in Egypt" and announce it before the end of this year, in implementation of the directives of President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, President of the Republic, on the importance of preparing an integrated strategy to localize the auto industry and its feeding industries, and work on transferring advanced technology to the largest possible percentage. of local components, which supports this industry, and contributes to attracting more investments in this important and vital sector.
For his part, Steve Kiefer, President of General Motors International, confirmed during his meeting with Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, the company's intention to expand in the Egyptian market significantly during the coming period, as well as its aspiration to share the best practices that it monitored from its experiences in 60 markets. He differed with the Egyptian government to support its policies in implementing "green transport".
He added that the company is on its way to producing several types of electric cars by 2025, and will choose the appropriate electric car model and specifications that it will present and manufacture in the Egyptian market, pointing out its intention to increase its global investments by about $35 billion until 2025, to become a leader in the vehicle market. Electric vehicles, self-driving cars, and the development of car battery management technology, among others.
It is noteworthy that the negotiations for Nasr cars - affiliated with the public business sector - to produce electric cars with the Chinese Dongfeng Company stopped due to the lack of agreement to reduce the price of the imported component, according to the Ministry of Public Enterprise Sector.
In its statement, the ministry stated that the two companies were unable to agree to reduce the price of the main imported component sufficiently to enable Al-Nasr Automotive Company to produce the car and offer it at a competitive price, which resulted in the negotiations stalling.
Al-Nasr Automotive Company signed two contracts with the Chinese company last January to assemble electric cars locally, and to rehabilitate its factory through a subsidiary of the Chinese group.

Sen. DeMint Butts In On Calif. Marriage Decision, Insults LGBT Families
by Greg Hambrick
California's Supreme Court (which has six of seven judges appointed by Republican governors) decided the state's law against gay marriage was unconstitutional. The state will now begin marrying gays and lesbians in 30 days.
Sen. Jim DeMint apparently had time to burn today and thought he'd give his useless 2 cents.
"Marriage is America's most important institution and it must be cherished and protected. This decision by the California State Supreme Court to overturn the ban on same-sex marriage is the latest in a series of attacks on the sanctity of marriage in this country. We cannot allow activist judges to force their liberal views on American families that overwhelmingly support marriage between one man and one woman."
Again, those "activist judges" are Republican appointed activist judges.
But DeMint doesn't stop there. He had to take another offensive stab at gay and lesbian families.
"Families are the strength of America, and that's why we must protect marriage because we know children that are raised by a mother and father have the best chance to succeed in life."

Susie: The Life and Legacy of Susannah Spurgeon (Rhodes) - Hardcover
Buy 2 - 500 and get $1.00 off
The definitive biography of Susannah Spurgeon.
While many Christians recognize the name of Charles H. Spurgeon, the beloved preacher and writer, few are familiar with the life and legacy of his wife, Susie. Yet Susannah Spurgeon was an accomplished and devout woman of God who had a tremendous ministry in her own right, as well as in support of her husband. Even while dealing with serious health issues, she administered a book fund for poor pastors, edited and published her husband's sermons and other writings, led a pastor's aid ministry, wrote five books, made her home a hub of hospitality, and was instrumental in planting a church. And as her own writing attests, she was also a warm, charming, and fascinating woman.
Now, for the first time, Susie brings this vibrant woman's story to modern readers. Ray Rhodes Jr. examines Susannah's life, showing that she was not only the wife of London's most famous preacher, but also a woman who gave all she had in grateful service to the Lord.
Susie is an inspiring and encouraging account of a truly remarkable woman of faith that will delight Spurgeon devotees and fans of Christian biographies alike.
