  AMCTV.com BIOGRAPHY - Warren Beatty   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Throw in the long gaps between projects and the small gaps between lovers, the little publicized or understood relationship with his sister Shirley MacLaine, and a personality defined by both narcissism and ambivalence, pretentiousness and self-effacement, and you have a Sphinx-like star, one whose air of inscrutability just adds to his highly personal allure.

 David Beatty, 1st Earl Beatty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beatty gained recognition in the recapture of the Sudan (1897-1899), where he was selected as second in command by Lord Kitchener for his Khartoum expedition.
Beatty’s flamboyant style included wearing a non-standard uniform, which had six buttons instead of the regulation eight on the jacket, and always wearing his cap at an angle.
In Germany, Beatty ruined his reputation when he told the crews of his ships that were receiving the German High Seas Fleet for its internment at Scapa Flow, "Don't forget that the enemy is a despicable beast," and arranged the surrender of the German Fleet as a grand spectacle of humiliation.

 Warren Beatty - Salon
But Beatty is so much better when he allows his tough-mindedness and his tenderness to mix it up, as he did in 1991's "Bugsy" (which he starred in and co-produced); he's too complex a performer to settle into any kind of hoary silver-screen nostalgia.
Beatty should be recognized for the range and scope of projects he's taken on, for his dedication to approaching the business of movies with intelligence and integrity.
Beatty's Bugsy is a rough guy undone by all kinds of romance, and by one woman in particular, toughie starlet Virginia Hill, played exquisitely by Bening.

 Beatty I
Following shakedown, Beatty escorted the Norwegian tanker Britainsea and the American SS Barstowe from Isle of Shoals to Portland, Maine, on 8 August before she was detached for patrol duty and antisubmarine warfare training.
At 0415, Beatty took her station along with other ships of the fire support group, and, at 0430, heard the prearranged code words "Play Ball." Uncertain as to the position of the assault groups, Beatty checked fire momentarily until intercepting a radio transmission that told of the assault wave's arrival at the line of departure.
Beatty's men suddenly noticed the plane pass across the ship's bow at an altitude of about 40 feet, "missing the forecastle by a few feet" and turned down the port side of the ship, landing in the water abreast number two stack and about fifty feet away.

 Beatty v
Beatty rode the horse for a time and "it went around fine." The first time that Stewart noticed any problem with the horse while Beatty was riding it was when she stopped to get off.
Therefore, Beatty failed to demonstrate the existence of a triable issue of material fact on the question of Defendants' knowledge that the horse was dangerous such that she should not have been allowed to ride it.
Beatty next argues that Defendants failed to present evidence that they did not increase the risk of harm inherent in horseback riding by not agitating the horse, and therefore did not carry their burden of proof on summary judgment.

 Ordovician Fossils At The Great Beatty Mudmound, Nevada   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
In general, Ross concluded, the fossil fauna from the Beatty bioherm closely resembles fossil assemblages from similar Middle Ordovician limestone structures in Quebec and Newfoundland.
The mudmound near Beatty probably developed scores of miles from the ancient Ordovician shoreline in seawater shallow enough to allow monstrous algae mats to flourish and enormous quantities of animal life to thrive along the flanks of the mound.
At an elevation of 3,284 feet, Beatty stays a little less hot in the summer than its sizzling neighbor Death Valley, but the difference, measured in five to ten degrees at the most, is arguably negligible, although the higher altitude certainly contributes to a much-welcomed cooling during the evening hours.

Beatty commented on the two Democrats who have already jumped into the governor's race, saying, "I think Phil is terrific, I think Steve is terrific,'' and added that there are "quite a number'' of Democrats who would improve on Schwarzenegger's record.
