The Devil-Ship Pirates (1964)
"I understand, sir, that you're not returning to Spain."
"That's correct."
"But the Armada will be reformed, sir. King Philip must try again, there's so much at stake."
"That sort of talk's for priests and women. And you."

I remember there had been speculations that the Yorks (either the parents or girls) had contributed to FF or Endgame. Having read the 2 books, do you think it's possible? And is there anyone from the inner circle of the BRF that did in your opinion? From the Sussex side, their staff definitely did as they seemed friendly with Scobie at the beginning and Meghan's friends as well. But it seems not even Harry's friends ever did so I can hardly see a close friend/family member of the BRF leak to him
Such an interesting question, anon - you really made me dig deep into my memory! (I haven't picked up Finding Freedom since it first came out, though I've been meaning to check out the paperback since it got a new epilogue after Philip passed away.)
Remember that Finding Freedom was written by Scobie and Carolyn Durand. Scobie gets the lion's share of criticism, recognition, and credit for Finding Freedom and Durand practically disappeared from royal commentary after the book was published so something definitely went down. I think the way they "split" the work is Scobie sourced the Sussexes, Kensington Palace, Meghan's friends, and Sunshine Sachs because his background is actually entertainment news. Durand sourced Buckingham Palace, Clarence House, and a few of Harry's friends like Guy Pelly and the van Straubenzees because she has the more "establishment" cred.
I don't actually know if that's true. The only evidence I have is how HarperCollins presented them in their biographies for Finding Freedom - they called Scobie the expert on the "young royals" (William, Kate, Harry, and Meghan) with "strong access to the Sussexes' working world" and they say Durand has contacts at BP, KP, and Clarence House and has produced interviews with many members of the royal family, including Harry. (Here's the link.)
To your question about if Harry's friends would talk to the press, yes. According to Scobie in Endgame, BP/KP/CH have lists of royal friends and associates that may be willing to speak to reporters, and whom the palace will make available to the reporters when they're writing on books or commemorative articles for birthdays/milestones. Since it sounds like Scobie and Durand did make the BRF aware that they were writing Finding Freedom, the palace probably gave them some names from Harry's list of friends and that's how they were able to talk to some of those guys, if they did.
Whether anyone in the inner circles of the BRF spoke to them for Finding Freedom, we know Jason Knauf definitely did since he was part of the lawsuit. Sara Latham probably could have given some background. (Based on some of the info from the lawsuits and some of the things Scobie said in Endgame, I think they had started doing research for something that would become Finding Freedom in 2018. The lawsuit revealed that Scobie and Durand were working with/through Knauf to get clarification from the Sussexes and Knauf would only have been involved if he was working with the Sussexes, so it had to have been before William split their offices and sent the Sussexes to work out of BP in late 2018/early 2019.)
I did always get a feeling like maybe Eugenie contributed. If she did, then she probably did it on deep background, where any info she gave couldn't be published or attributed to her, but Scobie/Durand could have used her info as lines of questioning for other people or subjects for further research. She was really the only one hanging out with Harry. Beatrice didn't seem to be around Harry much anymore in those days. (It was alleged that she was incandescant with rage, to borrow from William, that Meghan teased/leaked the pregnancy at Eugenie's wedding and that made her rethink a lot of things.)
I don't see Andrew being involved. He doesn't strike me someone who liked Harry personally. Maybe they were close when Harry was a kid but they seem to have distanced since Harry had gotten older (it's probably some spare v spare resentment) (plus there's the whole thing about the Sussexes supposedly stealing Eugenie's wedding timeline and supposedly that was very upsetting) so I can't see him doing an interview. And also, probably by the time Scobie and Durand were sitting down to actually write Finding Freedom in Summer/Fall 2019, the Epstein scandals had blown open again and made Andrew PNG'd so no way in hell someone woke like Scobie would include anything he had to say.
But Sarah, possibly. She and Durand are both affiliated with Oprah - Sarah has been on the talk show a few times, she had her own show/docuseries with Oprah, she's been in the magazine, and Durand is a contributer to Oprah's magazine and website. So they have that connection and that could've been how Durand was able to talk to Sarah, possibly even for info or background on Diana. (I don't see anyone on the Spencer side being Scobie's source, no matter how much Harry talks about his mother's family being his favorite people since some shit went down between Harry, Meghan, and Charles Spencer, my only evidence being his glaring absence from Archie's christening.)
And also, a quick aside about Sarah. I do think Sarah is one of Piers Morgan's sources for the royal family. I think Piers has a few sources in the BRF (including Camilla) but Sarah might be the most loose-lipped one.
Sorry, anon. You were probably looking for a quick and simple answer, and yet I've given you another essay to read.

International relations professor Andrew Latham opined in a recent piece that the idea of total Ukrainian victory is delusional.
Unfortunately some people, predominantly in Europe, still stick to the delusional idea:
In professional journals, on influential websites and across the full spectrum of media outlets, observers, analysts and pundits alike continue to inform us that, yes, there is a way for Ukraine to prevail over Russia, expelling the latter from all of its territory, including Crimea. … [That’s nonsense.] … In short, Russia is winning the war and there is little to suggest that any foreseeable political, economic, tactical or technological developments are likely to alter that fundamental reality. So why are we seeing arguments about an ultimate Ukrainian battlefield triumph, in the face of all the devastatingly contradictory evidence?
Well, applying Occam’s razor — the principle that “other things being equal, simpler explanations are generally better than more complex ones” — I would suggest that the delusional belief that there is a pathway to total victory for Ukraine is based less on evolving military or geopolitical realities than on a simple psychological dynamic, one best summed up in the concept of “commitment escalation.”
According to this concept, individuals or groups sometimes exhibit a tendency to persist with a failing argument, even as that argument becomes increasingly untenable in light of the facts. This behavior is marked above all by an adherence to prior commitments — sunk costs, as the economists might put it — regardless of their present plausibility or rationality. It is a psychological dysfunction.
The German government under chancellor Scholz is one group which has stuck to the fallen argument. There is no way the Ukraine can win or that Russia could lose that war and any additional price paid for attempts to invalidate that is just wasted.
Since the start of the war the EU’s and Germany’s reaction to it have been on the wrong path.

She doesn't mind being called a diva in this episode by Mariah. Note- by Mariah. Because that equates her to Mariah (and she redefines the word for herself. Yet she does use that term to refer to Mariah as being over the top, demanding when she gives those examples of Mariah's demands)
I wonder if she is so accepting of the diva description if Princess Anne were to use to describe meghan. Or Sophie? Or Pippa, Kate, angela Kelly, Sam Cohen, Sara Latham, Emily Andrews, Lady C, Valentine Low, Trevor, Ninaki, Cory, Sam Markle, Tom Jr, Melissa Toubati, Jason Knauf, Sarah rafferty, Meghan Kelly, P Morgan, William, fired nanny... List is long. But of any one of these people were to call her a diva to her face, would she be as zen and self aggrandizing as she is with Mariah?
Or would she rip them a new one and set her hellhounds on them? I think (I know) the latter (as we have all witnessed over the years)
Excellent point, you are indeed correct.

The new Bower article you posted from The Times today is the clearest, most damning (IMO) confirmation that Meghan had no intention of staying in London or with the BRF. She had always intended to cut and run at the first opportunity to go back to her Hollywood influencer life. In the blackest and whitest it'll ever be:
In anticipation of her move to Hollywood, Andrew Meyer, her business manager and the director of her company Frim Fram Inc, once again renewed The Tig trademark. In August, on Harry's behalf, lawyers registered MWX Trading Ltd at Companies House to apply for trademarks, including Travalyst, Harry's sustainable travel company.
As an indication of Meghan's plan to end her role as a funded public servant in Britain, the Palace was initially excluded from giving advice.
In fact, Bower also goes on to imply (from The Sun article) they were discussing to transition to a Hollywood life as early as October 2018 when they saw Diana-like crowds (in Harkle worldview only) worshipping them in Australia.
Compare that with Sussex PR that they didn't begin considering to leave royal life until December 2019 when they camped out in Vancouver for the holidays.
10 more points to Tumblr!
This is for sure another win for Tumblr. I knew for a fact she was going to fly the coop when she hired Sara Latham. You don't hire an American election campaign strategist if you wish to dedicate your life to being a public servant in the UK.

In the past a man claiming to be an attorney who represented Willie Nelso appoarched me via text messaging saying he worked for Latham & Watkins (Later Lindsay Watkins) but non the less after requesting monies agreed to represent me against Scripps Healthcare where I was employed as a Corporate Manager overseeing a software program "Teletracking" when I was diagnosed and treated for bilateral breast cancer both ductal and lobular invasive. My surgery occurred on August 19, 2011 with a start time 0700 AM and including signed and informed consent for two physicians Joyti Arya & Pamela Kurtzhal to preform the mastectomies and reconstruction. I woke discovering another surgeon had dictated he'd preformed surgery as a co-surgeon and had removed my left third rib , first the cartilage, and then the bone itself and using a serated 15 inch blade had cut it in two. My abdomen was cut midline from side to side and not as agreed to and consented to allow the plastic surgeon to do a suprapubic cut and remove tissue and possibly muscle to transplant to my external chest wall to mimic breasts for my personal self esteem and mental health. The attorney who remained in contact until this past year never met with me personally and provided numerous private accounts for his "firm" to continue working on a case he assured me would win even after Scripps harassed me even during chemo therapy and allowed my director to mock my hertiage including graduating with my BSN from the university of Alabama, citing Alabama was a third world county wasn't it and she had to leave her "sexyist job at Vandy when her teenage daughter uttered the word "Ya'll" which was a part of that thrird world unacceptable language as she pranced around my workspace barefoot with red pedicured nails and tossed her hair which she'd had done by the guy who did mine and who told me after she was seen to please pay his tip in cash rather than by my husbands' and my Discover Card. Needless to say I still haven't had my day in HR or in a courtroom...Funny the list of employees doesn't mention his name but (notice Phillip Perry) :
Notable attorneys and alumni[edit]
Dana Latham - Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service[28]
Sean M. Berkowitz – Federal prosecutor in the trials of Enron executives Ken Lay and Jeffrey Skilling. Also defended Lori Loughlin in the 2019 college admissions bribery scandal.[29]
Charles Courtenay, 19th Earl of Devon[30]
Thomas J. Heiden - Partner and Former Global Chair of the firm.[31]
Philip Perry – Former associate attorney general, former general counsel of the Office of Management and Budget, and former general counsel of Department of Homeland Security.[32]
Kathryn Ruemmler – Former White House Counsel to President Barack Obama and federal prosecutor in the trials of Enron executives Ken Lay and Jeffrey Skilling.[33]
Jonathan Lippman – Former Chief Judge of the New York Court of Appeals.[34]
Michael Chertoff — Former U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security
Andrew H. Warren — State Attorney of Florida's 13th Judicial Circuit, Hillsborough County (2017–22)[35]
Brett Oppenheim — Reality TV star of Netflix's hit show, Selling Sunset. Owner of Oppenheim Real Estate.[36]
My CEO at Scripps Healthcare was Chris Van Gorder at the time who also worked as an agent for Homeland Security and Homeland Security, TEACH student loans, FEMA, and the Border Patrol sent me letters routinely for several years.
Some of the personal accounting information included Daniel Mhlongo. Wells Fargo with a request to send 1200, instead of 1000 please over wire...BBVA Danielle Minjarez money too and account numbers 6797556686 062______
And anothor PNC Account Danielle Minjarez 1000 dollars please to #_____4722______ with 071921891 Routing .....
These not counting a BofA account in Texas and multiple phone number changes and so on...
I not only had wrong site wrong MD but no surgical time out and they attempted to cover it up by insinuating I had mental health issue while my general surgeon abandoned me while hospitalized and the plastic surgeon sent me home with JP drains and no antibiotics or pain meds etc.
I have since experienced so many discriminations including physicians seeing my husband and declining me care but wht hurts most I suppose is the accountability that is not present for people who have Corporate and Government ties and today as I feel really battered and down and am in great physical pain from all the injuries I've experienced since, I can se why others may think what's the use in voting anyway...there are always things beyond my control that really makes even taking the time to vote worthless.
I hope everyone understands the only way to help America change and grow for the better is to vote even if it seems pointless.
I have been talking about body dysmorphia. I am plagued by it now along with the flashbacks of abuse from others since early childhood.
We are all more alike than different and I hope we can find a way to find world Peace even if not in my life time...that of our children and grandchildren.

Threads (Mick Jackson, 1984)
Cast: Karen Meagher, Reece Dinsdale, David Brierly, Rita May, Nicholas Lane, Jane Hazlegrove, Henry Moxon, June Broughton, Sylvia Stoker, Harry Beeton, Ruth Holden, Ashley Barker, Michael O'Hagan, Phil Vaughan (voice). Screenplay: Barry Hines. Cinematography: Andrew Dunn, Paul Morris. Production design: Christopher Robilliard. Film editing: Donna Bickerstaff, Jim Latham. 
Was it because it was a "made-for-TV movie," a label that was once a byword for mediocrity, that I never saw Threads before now? Or was it that I knew what it was about and didn't need to put myself through watching a film that existed to tell me something I already knew: that nuclear war would be unspeakably horrible? But knowing is one thing and seeing is another. Threads is propaganda of the best kind, designed to disseminate truth rather than opinion. Its visceral but wholly credible horrors make criticism impotent, even though as a creative work it's not immune to criticism: There is some clunky dialogue; the narrative voiceover is awkwardly inserted and sometimes sententious; the evocation of a nativity scene near the end is too obvious. But the performances of the unknown actors, the skillful editing of stock footage into vividly staged scenes, and the unrestrained depiction of human suffering and degradation add up to a punch to the gut. Threads is a movie that has to be seen, or ought to be at least by anyone who holds a political or military position and needs to be have what it's trying to tell us engraved on their consciences. And that boils down to a demonstration of something often attributed to, of all people, Nikita Khrushchev: that in the aftermath of a nuclear war, the living would envy the dead.
