Steven Spielberg will be doing Abraham Lincoln after finishing his ‘Tintin’ animation. He earlier announced he won’t be working on ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7′ for the time being, because of the potential actors’ strike. He plans to film ‘Lincoln’ in 2009, so “that it can also open in the same year as Lincoln’s [...]

Abraham Lincoln's 1864 anti-slavery letter was auctioned at $3.4 Million at Sotheby's auction house on March 28, 2008. This letter was the president's response to children asking that he free "all the little slave children".Lincoln's hand-written reply to a petition by children to free "all the little slave children in this country" surpassed the previous record for a Lincoln manuscript -- the $3.1 million for a document sold by Christie's in March 2002.It was purchased by an American collector bidding by telephone, Sotheby's said."Please tell these little people I am very glad their young hearts are so full of just and generous sympathy, and that, while I have not that power to grant all they ask, I trust they will remember that God has, and that, as it seems, He wills to do it," Lincoln

Hello friends, I am back this time with something new! Recently while flipping through a literary book, a letter caught my attention. This letter was written by the former President of the United States of America, Abraham Lincoln, to the Headmaster of the school in which his son was studying.

Do you believe in coincidences?C.G.Jung call these synchronicities "meaningful coincidences that could not be explained by cause and effect." There are no accidents!

Hopcke, published by The Berkley Publishing Group, 1998, 272 pagesWell read the following and let me know your comments:Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.John F.

Por email me llegó un mensaje que establece paralelismos sorprendentes entre las  vidas de Abraham Lincoln y John F. Kennedy; como el email se encuentra circulando por la red, quizas muchos ya lo hayan leido. En todo caso resultan sorprendentes las coincidencias que presentan las vidas de estos dos importantes personajes históricos, frente a las cuales nos preguntamos: Casualidades producto del azar o acontecimientos marcados por un destino común? Acontinuación transcribo el contenido del email: Abraham Lincoln fue elegido al congreso en 1846 y John F. Kennedy en 1946. Abraham Lincoln fue elegido Presidente en 1860. John F. Kennedy  en 1960. Los dos estuvieron muy interesados en mejorar los derechos civiles. Las esposas de ambos perdieron hijos cuando todavía estaban en la Casa Blanca. Ambos Presidentes fueron asesinados un dia viernes, y a los dos les dispararon en la cabeza. Aquí es donde se pone un poco misteriosa la cosa: La secretaria de Lincoln era de apellid

This, I believe, is the entire quotation from Charleston speech, as Judge Douglas made it his comments are as follows: "Yes, here you find men who hurrah for Lincoln, and say he is right when he discards all distinction between races, or when he declares that he discards the doctrine that there is such a thing as a superior and inferior race; and Abolitionists are required and expected to vote for Mr. Lincoln because he goes for the equality of races, holding that in the Declaration of Independence the white man and negro were declared equal, and endowed by divine law with equality. And down South, with the old-line Whigs, with the Kentuckians, the Virginians and the Tennesseeans, he tells you that there is a physical difference between the races, making the one superior, the other inferior, and he is in favor of maintaining the superiority of the white race over the negro."

This is really disturbing. Fortunately lawyers tend to be a contentious bunch so there will be lots of fur and paper flying about this. There is no justification of this sort of invasion of privacy unless there is a history of risk to self or others. Then there is an obligation for a thorough review. This is discrimination, nothing less. Markham's Behavioral Health Connecticut's State Bar Examining committee is now asking attorney applicants to the state bar if they have been treated for depression along with other major psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia, and bi-polar illness acording to an article on Lawyer.com. This is already done in Colorado, Florida, Delaware, and Kentucky. If Abraham Lincoln were alive, he would encounter several difficulties gaining admittance to the Connecticut Bar -- assuming he deserved his reputation both for honesty and for 'melancholia.' That's because the state's Bar Examining Committee has re-introduced depression as one of the conditi
