Kim Peek was an American savant born with an abnormally large head and serious developmental challenges. Doctors discovered that the bundle of nerves connecting the two hemispheres of his brain was missing. They considered him mentally retarded and advised his parents to send him to a mental institution, but they refused.

At six years old, doctors recommended a lobotomy to "cure" him, but his parents didn't consent. Despite this, Kim started to amaze them, reading and memorizing vast amounts of information in various subjects, such as history, literature, geography, and dates. It was recorded that he could accurately recall the contents of at least 12,000 books.

Peek read by scanning the left page with his left eye and the right page with his right eye. He remains one of the greatest savants in history and inspired the 1988 Academy Award-winning film Rain Man.

SAG LA Vice President Michelle Hurd explains that “you know those actors when you go ‘oh there’s that guy from that show’, you don’t necessarily know their names… those actors are working class actors who are literally working paycheck to paycheck.”

A journalist who has seen ‘BARBIE’ calls the film a “fun yet self-aware romp with shades of ‘Clueless’ & ‘Legally Blonde’”

“It’s also stuffed full of ideas, and occasionally overwhelmed by them.”

Titanic Director James Cameron who visited the Titanic 33 times onboard a submersible and also holds a world record for the deepest dive ever at 35,787 ft in the Mariana Trench has weighed in on the Titan disaster.

“I knew Titanic submarine imploded on Monday and rescue was a charade.”

He called the search a “prolonged nightmarish charade.”

I’m guessing there is no Adam in #thecrowdedroom for sure. That must be his first alter.
The step dad never interacted with Adam in the car at all.
A Classic sixth sense tell.

This is NOT OKAY!

Erasing writers, directors, and producers is the first step in a complete devaluation of our art.

It must stop now.

Over The Last 2 Weeks:

1. Saudi Arabia considers accepting Chinese Yuan for oil sales

2. China and France complete first LNG trade using Yuan

3. Russia considers using Chinese Yuan as reserve currency

4. Saudi Arabia partners with China to build refinery for 83.7 billion Chinese Yuan ($12.2 billion)

5. China and Brazil agree to use Chinese Yuan in cross-border transactions

The percentage of global reserves in U.S. Dollars is down from 72% in 1999 to 59% now.

Is the U.S. Dollar's dominance decreasing?
