	King Arthur's historicity
		Most avid enthusiasts of this great King Arthur are anything but neutral about his origins, and just about every one of those enthusiasts--if they believe in a historical King Arthur with an authentic ancestry--has developed a theory about his roots, just as everyone who debunks his historicity builds a case of scepticism.
		Any attempt to anchor King Arthur's historic origins in the fifth century is blocked by ponderous minutiae--the complex jumble of languages, the surviving recensions of a perplexing millennium, the confusion of epithets versus proper names, and the unfortunate interpolations tainting so many documents.
		That individual's name is Ambrosius Aurelianus, labeled as the "great king among the kings of the Britons" in the Historia Brittonum, appearing as Aurelius Ambrosius in Monmouth's work, and known as the Briton Rigotamos in continental histories.

		One day, while the monkey king was eating the succulent fruit, he thought, "If any of this fruit ever fell into the river, great danger could come to us." To prevent this, he ordered the monkeys to pick all the mango flowers or tiny fruit from that branch.
		Whenever the king bathed in the river, he had nets stretched both upstream and downstream from where he was.
		When he saw the king hanging there, he exulted, "This is my chance to see the last of my enemy!" Climbing onto a high branch, he flung himself down on the monkey king's back with a dreadful blow that broke his heart.

	MESSAGES - A GREAT KING’S REWARD IS AS HE IS
		Whether we work in a great company or just in a small enterprise, we expect to receive as far as we believe we are able to carry out.
		Nevertheless, God’s rewards will always be as great as He is. Should we want to take it and make His heart merry and fulfilled, we must have a heart which is fully able to receive in accordance to the Giver and not to the labor.
		It takes a humble man to deny pots of gold or not inviting you to his palace instead, and come to cook in pots of iron and clay having such nearby as would cook for him gladly anywhere, simply because of what he is. Receive it from such, for they are pleasing unto God.

	Ataman Hotel - Puduhepa and Hattusilis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The reign of the Great Queen Puduhepa is so well documented that it is clear that she played a very active and successful role in affairs of state, in political, legal and religious matters alike, performing her duties alongside and on an equal footing with her husband, as well as independently.
		Equality between a king and queen in international politics is indicated by the royal correspondence, and the use of personal seals of queens to ratify agreements indicates that queens made decision in their own names.
		It is understood that the decision of the inquiry was made in the name of the Hittite king, most probably Tuthaliya IV when he was too young to assume control of his responsibilities and the reins of power were in the hands of his mother Puduhepa.

	Fate Article: Awaiting the Great King of Terror
		The 444-year-old “King of Terror” quatrain, translated above, may be the most famous and controversial of Nostradamus’s verses, for two simple reasons: First, it is one of the few times that the sixteenth-century French seer explicitly mentioned a year, and secondly, it seems to suggest a foreboding world event in our near future.
		The “King of the Mongols” passage in line 3 is often thought to refer to the thirteenth-century Asian emperor Gengis Khan, also known as the “King of Terror.” This suggests the emergence of an Antichrist or enemy from the Far East, as a direct result of the great King of Terror’s descent.
		We bounced the Cassini/ King of Terror coincidence around the FATE office as long ago as October 1997, when the probe’s launch sparked protests from environmentalists due to the 72 pounds of plutonium on board.

		An oval portrait of Frederick the Great hung in Hitler's East Prussian headquarters behind the Russian front, yet the king can hardly be counted the spiritual progenitor of the dictator.
		Frederick, King of Prussia, indisputably the greatest general/statesman of the eighteenth century, is also in many ways a more attractive warlord than some of his peers.
		Frederick the Great is undoubtedly one of the most elusive characters of the 18th century: like Napoleon, historians and biographers will have to duke it out for a few more centuries before we can accurately assess who he was and what kind of ruler, and man, he was.
