Ramamoorthy, Ph.D. Overcoming Adversity David J. Bunce, M.S. ============================================== King George VI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:King_George_VI_of_England,_formal_photo_portrait,_ circa_1940-1946.jpg Language in India www.languageinindia.com 462 11 : 4 April 2011 David J. Bunce, M.S. Overcoming Adversity The King’s Speech – an Award Winning Movie Recently a British movie, “The King’s Speech,” overwhelmingly won the Oscar award for best picture. The movie received many other prestigious and highly coveted awards as well. The stories, scenes, characters, dramatic episodes, and the imagination that goes with movie-making have immense impact on the viewers. A King’s Adversity I find stories of people who have overcome adversity deeply moving, and inspiring. One story of overcoming a great impediment, one that seems insurmountable, is the story of King George the VI. I’d like to briefly summarize his story because I think you’ll find his struggle with stuttering and overcoming this handicap most interesting. The story also highlights how confidence-building measures, encouraging spouses and friends, and simple therapies help overcome adversity in life. Albert – King George VI King George VI was the last Emperor of British India, and his face occupied a prominent place in coins and currency notes of British India; and it continued to be so in the period immediately after the independence of India from the British rule. -

Hollywood Chinese by Erica Marcus Published: April 10, 2008
Hollywood Chinese By Erica Marcus Published: April 10, 2008 Hollywood Chinese: A Very Queer Story An Interview with Filmmaker Arthur Dong Filmmaker Arthur Dong, who created Coming Out Under Fire, Licensed to Kill, Family Fundamentals and other LGBT films, has finished a new film Hollywood Chinese, a vivid and entertaining journey tracking the experience of Chinese Americans in America’s film industry. The film opens in the Bay Area on April 11 at San Francisco’s Sundance Kabuki Cinemas and at Oakland’s Grand Lake Theater. A San Francisco native, Arthur Dong Whowould have thought that it would be a heterosexual Chinese recently spoke to Bay Times about the director (Ang Lee) to bring the a great gay love story (Brokeback film. Mountain) to the silver screen. (Bay Times) So, you’re going to be at the screening in San Francisco on Friday and in Oakland on Saturday. You’ve assembled one hell of a cast - Ang Lee, Wayne Wang, Joan Chen, David Henry Huang, B.D. Wong, Nancy Kwan, Amy Tan and Fu Man Chu. But I gotta ask - is it a queer film? (Arthur Dong) Am I queer? No, I mean is the film, Hollywood Chinese, queer? That’s the answer. Am I queer? Ah ha! So there. Okay, identity politics is so passé. You got me, but now I’m curious. Do you believe that a queer sensibility is embedded in one’s vision? I believe that my films are embedded with my vision and I happen to be a gay man. I’m not saying all gay people produce gay products, but I do. -

Biography Activity: Cleopatra
Name___________________________________________________ Class ______________________ Date ___________________ Chapter 6 Biography Activity Cleopatra, queen of Egypt in the first century B.C., is one of the most famous women in world history. Playwrights and novelists have told many stories about her, but she is more than a romantic figure. Cleopatra’s ambitions and personality involved three of the most powerful men in Rome, influencing the civil wars that followed the death of Julius Caesar (textbook page 137). ◆ As you read, think about the actions people take to follow their ambitions. Then, on a separate sheet of paper, answer the questions that follow. Cleopatra VII (69–30 B.C.) leopatra was the last monarch of a Greek Octavian, but they later became rivals.

Baker Marquart and Quinn Emanuel Win Jury Verdict in Last Samurai Case
Baker Marquart and Quinn Emanuel Win Jury Verdict in Last Samurai Case Law360, New York (May 24, 2012, 11:30 AM ET) -- With the reputations of “The Last Samurai” director Edward Zwick and his longtime collaborator Marshall Herskovitz on the line, Gary Gans of Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan LLP fought back against allegations of screenplay theft with a multipronged strategy that used the film itself as its own defense. The case centered on two screenwriting brothers, Aaron and Matthew Benay, who in 2005 claimed Zwick and Herskovitz, along with Bedford Falls Productions, had stolen the idea for the 2003 Tom Cruise film from a screenplay the Benay brothers had allegedly submitted to Bedford Falls. Zwick and Herskovitz, longtime collaborators behind films like “Traffic” and “Blood Diamond” and television shows like “Thirtysomething” and “My So-Called Life,” denied using the Benays’ screenplay in writing and producing their film. They asserted that the evidence showed their project was the product of an intense collaboration with “Gladiator” writer John Logan. While the claims of copyright infringement and breach of implied contract were tossed in 2008, two years later, the Ninth Circuit reversed the dismissal of the breach-of-implied- contract claim while affirming the dismissal of the copyright claim. Gans came to the conclusion that the central theme of the movie — honor — was one of the pathways to his clients’ vindication. “The key to this case from my viewpoint was that the movie was largely about honor,” Gans told Law360. “We tried to channel that theme and the emotion of the movie so that they would be associated not only with the movie, but also with our clients in the courtroom as honorable people — which they are — and to show that they had no need or desire to steal someone else's ideas.” What was fundamental to that line of reasoning was to avoid falling into the trap of being labeled the Hollywood establishment types against the young and aspiring writers. -

Fact Sheet by Elizabeth Jones
Well-behaved women seldom make history – Fact sheet By Elizabeth Jones Anne Bonny Job description: Professional pirate Born: March 8, 1702, Kinsale, Republic of Ireland Died: Unknown How she is unconventional: Anne Bonny was a woman living in a world where women were actively excluded. All sailors, not just pirates, believed allowing women onboard would bring bad luck because they distracted the men from their work and might become a cause for conflict. While men were in favor of excluding women from a life at sea, Anne wished she had more women fighting at her side as she made her final stand. “Dogs! If instead of these weaklings I only had some women with me,” she screamed at her crew. —Charles Johnson, A General History of the Pyrates Video Link: http://player.history.com/pservice/embed-player/?siteId=hist&tPid=21115861 Harriet Tubman Job description: Civil Rights Activist Birth: c. 1820 Death: March 10, 1913 How she is unconventional: Harriet Tubman escaped slavery to become a leading abolitionist.
