Secondly, that there would be a move that Hamas could be accepting a peace agreement that would be negotiated. First of all, and I didn't anticipate it, although I hoped for it while I was writing the book - it was finished in November - that President Obama would be in office, and that we would have a balanced and aggressive commitment to bring peace. And I asked him, why this new book just two years after the other one?įormer President JIMMY CARTER: So much has happened since then. More recently, he caused a stir, a controversy, with his book called "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid." This week, he's out with another book, "We Can Have Peace in the Holy Land: A Plan That Will Work." That's the title. Today, we hear from a man who mediated peace between Israel and Egypt three decades ago, former President Jimmy Carter. ![]() And in recent weeks on this program, we've been hearing from politicians and intellectuals on the prospects, however dim, for peace between Israel and the Palestinians. With his administration barely a week old, President Obama has given an interview to Arab TV, Al Arabiya. I'm Linda Wertheimer.Īnd I'm Renee Montagne. ![]()

Alfred hitchcock and francois truffaut5/28/2023 ![]() ![]() This would be Truffaut’s last public appearance before his death in October 1984. I’ve also added a television interview (dated 13/Apr/1984) from the “Apostrophes” series in which host Bernard Pivot talks to Truffaut about Hitchcock. ![]() ![]() In early 2006, Tom Sutpen started posting parts of the famous Hitchcock and Truffaut interviews from 1962 on his “ if charlie parker was a gunslinger…” blog.Īll in all, Hitchcock and Truffaut recorded over 50 26 hours of interviews (with the help of translator Helen Scott), and these were eventually edited down into the “ Hitchcock/Truffaut” book (released in 1967).Īpproximately 12 hours of the interviews were broadcast a few years ago on French radio as a series of 25 half hour episodes, and it was these that Tom was using for his blog posts (currently up to part 13).įor those of you who are curious to hear the remaining 12 episodes, I’ve finally gotten around to adding all 25 parts to the wiki. ![]()

A Lifetime of Men by Ciahnan Darrell5/28/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Her mother told her he died years ago, but the book suggests their story had a different ending. ![]() Tolan is pretty sure that Michael is her father. They bond over their shared outcast status, and their friendship quickly becomes intimate, but the relationship antagonizes the self-appointed moral watchdogs in their small town, who start to convert their threats into action. She's more clear about the relationship between her mother and Michael, a man twelve years her senior. Her mother appears to be associated with Bo, a feisty photojournalist who flies to Cuba in pursuit of a story and becomes embedded with Castro's rebels, but Tolan can't quite work out their connection. She's hoping for answers, but instead, she finds more mysteries tucked away in her mother's past. But when she finds a manuscript on her mother's computer that promises to reveal the true story, Tolan only hesitates for a moment before curiosity compels her to read on. Tolan has always let her mother have one secret - how she got that scar on her face - playing along with her mother's game of inventing outlandish tales to explain the wound away. ![]()

Lon po po little red riding hood5/28/2023 ![]() ![]() When the girls meet the wolf, e.g., the left panel focuses on their wary faces peering out from the darkness, the middle enlarges the evil wolf's eye and teeth, and the third is a vivid swirl of the blue clothes in which the wolf is disguised. One of Young's most arresting illustrations accompanies his dedication: ``To all the wolves of the world for lending their good name as a tangible symbol for our darkness.'' Like ancient Oriental paintings, the illustrations are frequently grouped in panels. Tempting him with ginkgo nuts, the girls pull him in a basket to the top of the tree in which they are hiding, then let go of the rope-killing him. Lon Po Po, the Granny Wolf, pretends to be the girls' grandmother, until clever Shang, the eldest daughter, suspects the greedy wolf's real identity. ![]() ![]() This version of the Red Riding Hood story from Young ( The Emperor and the Kite Cats Are Cats Yeh-Shen ) features three daughters left at home when their mother goes to visit their grandmother. ![]()

The dark hills divide book5/28/2023 ![]() ![]() And nowadays, it’s as easy as typing “Make an essay for me” in live chat. Luckily, you don’t have to suffer in silence or give up on your dream of a college degree. You’re not alone, and it’s perfectly normal to struggle in a new environment and buckle under the weight of elevated expectations. So don’t feel bad if your thoughts go from “Can someone write my paper?” to “Write me a paper asap!” within the first few weeks of the college term. If you try to stay on top of all your responsibilities, you’ll likely burn out or suffer an anxiety attack sooner rather than later. ![]() You will soon forget about your plans to discover the party scene, visit your parents every other weekend, or find your soulmate on campus. Not only is it your first attempt at independent life free from parents’ oversight, but it’s also a completely new level of academic requirements and independent study many aren’t ready for.Īnd if you’re an overachiever or a perfectionist, keeping up with all the classes, assignments, extracurriculars, and side gigs will keep you up most nights.
