	Montgomery Clift - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Clift was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor that same year for The Search.
		Amazingly, Clift was nominated for a best supporting actor Oscar for Judgement At Nuremberg in a role that only took up seven minutes of screen time.
		But the public never knew until after his death that he was a bisexual, and his guilt over this led to his continuing alcoholism and drug use.

	The IR Theory Knowledge Base
		Each actor tries to maximize gains or minimize losses under conditions of uncertainty and incomplete information, which requires each actor to rank order preferences, estimate probabilities, and try to discern what the other actor is going to do.
		Its prime focus is on the transformation of three basic parameters: one at the micro level of individuals, another at the micro-macro level where individuals and their collectivities interact, and the third is at the macro level of collectivities and their global structures.
		There are further nuances to the theory: for instance, the sources of power transition vary in their volitility, population change being the least volatile and political capacity (defined as the ability of the government to control resources internal to the country) the most volatile.

	Biography for Eddie Albert (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Best known as the constantly flabbergasted Oliver Douglas in the surreal TV sitcom "Green Acres" (1965-71), the seemingly ageless, all American Albert flew on the circus trapeze and gave song recitals, before settling on acting as a career.
		Albert's latter-day film roles emphasized his menacing, waspish (and WASP-ish) side, as seen in his memorable performances in The Heartbreak Kid (1972, picking up his second Oscar nomination as Cybill Shepherd's father) and The Longest Yard (1974, as a ruthless prison warden).
		Albert married exotically beautiful actress Margo Lost Horizon, The Leopard Man in 1945; their son Edward Albert (born 1951), a promising leading man in the early 1970s who debuted opposite Goldie Hawn in Butterflies Are Free (1972), still acts in films and on TV.
