Many critics consider Meryl Streep our greatest living actress, and millions of movie fans don’t disagree. Her versatility is unparalleled: In The Iron Lady she embodies stern and sour British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, but in Mamma Mia she perfectly portrays a carefree singing hippie on a Greek island paradise.

“Meryl” Isn’t Her Birth Name

Mary Louise Streep made her first appearance in Summit, New Jersey, on June 22, 1949. Her father, business executive Harry William Streep Jr., quickly nicknamed her “Meryl,” a unique moniker she hated as a child. “I haaaaaaaated my name. I wanted to be named Patty or Cathy,” she has said.

Streep worked with Cazale on his last film, Vietnam war drama The Deer Hunter, and that performance earned her the first of a record-breaking 21 Oscar nominations. While she didn’t take home the Best Supporting Actress award, she’s since carried home three golden statues, for performances in Kramer vs. Kramer (1979), Sophie’s Choice (1982), and The Iron Lady (2011). She reportedly forgot her first statue in the bathroom, just after winning the award.

Despite the show’s success, and perhaps due to its long run, M*A*S*H experienced several significant cast changes, and several favorite characters were replaced with equally dynamic new ones — a standard practice on long-running shows today, but rare back then. In addition to Stevenson’s departure, Wayne Rogers (Captain “Trapper” John McIntyre) abruptly quit after season three, reportedly due to dissatisfaction with the development of his character. (Production planned a multimillion-dollar breach-of-contract lawsuit against the actor, but he revealed he never signed his contract, which made the matter moot.)
Stevenson’s Colonel Blake was succeeded by Colonel Potter (played by Harry Morgan), while B.J. Hunnicutt (played by Mike Farrell) took Trapper John’s place in the 4077th. Radar, the only main character transferred from the movie to the TV series, left the show in 1979.
Of the many actors who appeared on the show, Alda was the only star to appear in every episode. Through its run, the actor took increasing creative control of the series, directing 31 episodes including the finale, and co-writing 13 episodes. He became the first person ever to win Emmy Awards for acting, directing, and writing for the same show.
Loretta Swift (Margaret “Hot Lips” Houlihan) was a close second in terms of longevity; she appeared in all 11 seasons but missed a handful of episodes along the way.

Only one building outside Washington, D.C., is featured on U.S. banknotes.
There’s only one spot outside the nation’s capital that you’ll see featured on some of the seven U.S. banknotes currently in circulation. The $5 bill features the Lincoln Memorial, while the $10 features the Treasury Building — fitting, since Alexander Hamilton, whose visage adorns the obverse, served as the Treasury Department’s first secretary. The $20 and $50 finish the architectural tour of Washington with the White House and Capitol Building, respectively. The $1 is notably absent from this list, as the only building-like structure on its reverse side is a pyramid with a floating eye — and no such pyramid exists in the U.S. (or the world).

The Two Most Powerful Tudor Monarchs Were Redheads

The Tudor dynasty, which ruled England from 1485 until the death of Queen Elizabeth I in 1603, sported a whole family of redheads, chief among them Henry VIII and the “Virgin Queen” herself.
King Henry was described as strong, broad-shouldered, and possessing golden-red hair. His daughter with Anne Boleyn (also sometimes described as having auburn hair), who became Queen Elizabeth I in 1558, similarly sported a fiery mane. However, Queen Elizabeth I took the fashion for red hair to a whole new level. Although red hair was often associated with barbarians — and the Irish and Scots, with whom England constantly quarreled, were seen as descended from such barbarians — the queen made the hue so popular that English courtiers allegedly dyed their hair and beards red to show support for her (and also the Protestant cause).

In the history of the world, only two nations were dedicated to God: ancient Israel and America. Twenty-five hundred years ago, King Solomon dedicated Israel's holy temple to God. On April 30, 1789, George Washington and his cabinet dedicated America to God in a little church that still stands at Ground Zero.Dec 22, 2015
Omm, no.

Ancient Rome, in spite of your dogma, came up with the concept of Jesus. There Catholic Church at, once upon a time, were the owner's over all of Europe.

When did the US come into being?
1776. And the kingdom's of Europe were established well before the United States.

Ever read history before?
