"On a bitterly cold December evening in 1997, President Bill Clinton was leaving a holiday concert at the Kennedy Center when he noticed a homeless veteran sitting outside the entrance, shivering in a thin jacket and holding a cardboard sign that simply read 'Marine - Desert Storm - Hungry.' What happened next shocked everyone in the presidential motorcade—Clinton immediately stopped, took off his own overcoat, draped it around the stunned man's shoulders, and sat down on the freezing concrete beside him to talk. The veteran, forty-two-year-old Marcus Williams, later recounted to reporters that the President didn't ask him what went wrong or lecture him about getting help—instead, Clinton asked about his service, which battles he'd seen, and whether anyone had properly thanked him for his sacrifice. Secret Service Agent Larry Cockell documented in his memoir that Clinton spent twenty-five minutes sitting on that sidewalk in the bitter cold, and when Marcus mentioned he hadn't eaten in two days, the President sent an agent to get food from a nearby restaurant and insisted on staying until Marcus had finished eating. What makes this story so incredibly moving is what Clinton said to Marcus before leaving, words that Marcus repeated to social workers, shelter staff, and eventually his own children years later when he'd gotten back on his feet: 'Brother, this country failed you when you came home, and I'm sorry—but your story isn't over yet, and I'm going to make sure someone follows up to help you write the next chapter.' True to his word, Clinton personally called the VA the next morning, and Marcus was enrolled in a comprehensive support program within forty-eight hours that included housing, job training, and mental health services. Marcus Williams eventually became a veterans' advocate, and he told the Washington Post in 2015 something that still gives me chills: 'The most powerful man in the world sat on frozen concrete with a forgotten Marine and made me feel like I still mattered—that's the moment I decided to fight my way back.' He reminds us that dignity and hope can be restored with one genuine conversation, one warm coat, and the willingness to sit beside someone the world has walked past.

@RollingStone Thank U2 for being defiantly joyful. There is no reason not to be!

"The album contenders are very different in mood and theme than the ones we've chosen to put out on the 'Days of Ash' EP," says Bono. "More songs of celebration than lamentation." Read more: rollingstone.com/music/music-ne…

@OwenElaineowen1 Mr. Thornton

Most history focuses on the Colonists’ point of view. But what about King George’s perspective? This video offers a clearer look at why Britain acted as it did before the American Revolution.

@OwenElaineowen1 False. Mr. Darcy over the Colonel. I love the colonel but Darcy has a more lively personality

True or false? Discuss; show your work.

@austendaily Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Bingley’s married sister Louisa Hurst

When I am in the country, I never wish to leave it; and when I am in town, it is pretty much the same. They have each their advantages, and I can be equally happy in either.

@OwenElaineowen1 Killed it

Question: did this scene kill it for you, or was it just so-so? #PrideandPrejudice2005 #JaneAusten #PollOfTheDay
