November 19th is International Men’s Day

Being a male is a matter of birth. Being a man is a matter of choice. - Edwin Louis Cole No man stands so tall as when he stoops to help a child. - Abraham Lincoln There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. - Ernest Hemingway No one cares how much you know until they know how much you care. - Theodore Roose-velt If boys don’t learn, men won’t know. - Douglas Wilson A superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions. - Confucius A man is a product of his thoughts; what he thinks, he becomes. - Mahatma Gandhi No man has ever risen to the stature of spiritual manhood until he has found that it is finer to serve somebody else than it is to serve himself. - Woodrow Wilson Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice. If you’re a man, you take it. - Malcolm X There are two questions a man must ask himself: ‘Where am I going?” and “Who will go with me?” If he gets these questions in the wrong order he is in trouble. - Sam Keen I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. - Nelson Mandela There is a difference between being a good man and being good at being a man. - Anon The strength of a man’s virtue should not be measured by his special exertions, but by his habitual acts. - Blaise Pascal Great men aren’t born great; they grow great. - The Godfather A man does what he must—in spite of personal consequences, obstacles, and dangers and that is the basis of all human morality. - Winston Churchill

1-Midway

The story of the Battle of Midway, six months after the attack on Pearl Harbor, between the American

fleet and the Imperial Japanese Navy which marked a pivotal turning point in the Pacific Theater

during WWII. The film, based on the real-life events of this heroic feat, tells the story of the leaders

and soldiers who used their instincts, fortitude and bravery to overcome the odds.

An all-star high school athlete and accomplished debater, Luce is a poster boy for the new American

Dream - as are his parents, who adopted him from a war-torn country a decade earlier. When Luce's

teacher makes a shocking discovery in his locker, Luce's stellar reputation is called into question. But

is he really at fault, or is Ms. Wilson preying on dangerous stereotypes?

15-Downton Abbey

The beloved Crawleys and their intrepid staff prepare for the most important moment of their lives. A

royal visit from the King and Queen of England unleashes scandal, romance and intrigue that leave

the future of Downton hanging in the balance.

22-Richard Jewell

"There is a bomb in Centennial Park. You have thirty minutes." The world is first introduced to

Richard Jewell as the security guard who reports finding the device at the 1996 Atlanta bombing—his

report making him a hero whose swift actions save countless lives. But within days, the law enforce-

ment wannabe becomes the FBI's number one suspect, vilified by press and public alike, his life ripped

apart. Reaching out to independent, anti-establishment attorney Watson Bryant, Jewell staunchly professes his

innocence. But Bryant finds he is out of his depth as he fights the combined powers of the FBI, GBI and APD to

clear his client's name, while keeping Richard from trusting the very people trying to destroy him.

29-Marriage Story

A love story about divorce. A marriage coming apart and a family coming together. Charlie is a

charismatic New York theater director wedded to his work and Nicole is an actor who is ready to

change her own life. Their hopes for an amicable divorce fade as they are drawn into a system that

pits them against each other and forces them to redefine their relationship and their family.

During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student

and had breezed through the questions until I read the last one: (Author Unknown)

1 - 1st Important Lesson "What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?" Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50's, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade. "Absolutely," said the professor. "In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say ‘hello’.” I've never forgotten that lesson.. I also learned her name was Dorothy. 2. - Second Important Lesson - Pickup in the rain One night, at 11:30 p.m., an older African American woman was standing on the side of an Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing rainstorm; her car had broken down and she desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car. A young white man stopped to help her, generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960s. The man took her to safety, helped her get assistance and put her into a taxicab. She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his address and thanked him. Seven days went by and a knock came on the man's door. To his surprise, a giant console color TV was delivered to his home. A special note was attached. It read: "Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway the other night. The rain drenched not only my clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along. Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying husband's' bedside just before he passed away. God bless you for helping me and unselfishly serving others." Sincerely, Mrs. Nat King Cole. 3 - Third Important Lesson - Always remember those who serve In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10-year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him. "How much is an ice cream sundae?" he asked. "Fifty cents," replied the waitress. The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the coins in it. "Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?" he inquired. By now more people were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient. "Thirty-five cents," she brusquely replied. The little boy again counted his coins. "I'll have the plain ice cream," he said. The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nickels and five pennies. You see, he couldn't have the sundae, because he had to have enough left to leave her a tip.
