Richard Rory is a fictional character in the Marvel Universe.
 He initially was a sort of author surrogate or alter ego for writer Steve Gerber, though Gerber is also shown to exist in the Marvel Universe.
 He was introduced in "Man-Thing" Volume 1, #2, a bit of a loner who rather easily befriended the nearly mindless monster.
 When in rural areas, he was frequently belittled for having a college education and a rather left-wing perspective.
 Later, under the pen of David Anthony Kraft, he became friends with She-Hulk, with slight romantic overtones that went nowhere.
 The character is named after Richard Cory, a nearly opposite character whose song was playing on the radio when Gerber created the character.

 Ringer's work as a director has concentrated on classical plays such as "The Alchemist" and "The Puritan" for R. Thad Taylor's Globe Playhouse and "Hamlet" with Jon Mullich in the title role.
 Ringer is married to director Barbara Bosch, for whom he played Falstaff in his own adaptation of the two parts of William Shakespeare's "Henry IV" as well as Polonius and the Gravedigger in "The Heart of My Mystery: The Hamlet Project".

The Mount of the Congregation in the Old Testament ( ), has been supposed to refer to the place where God promised to meet with his people ( ; ) i.e., the mount of the Divine presence, Mount Zion.
 But here the King of Babylon must be taken as expressing himself according to his own heathen notions, and not according to those of the Jews.
 The “mount of the congregation” will therefore in this case mean the northern mountain, supposed by the Babylonians to be the meeting-place of their gods.
 In the Babylonian inscriptions mention is made of a mountain which is described as “the mighty mountain of Bel, whose head rivals heaven, whose root is the holy deep.”
 This mountain was regarded in their mythology as the place where the gods had their seat.
 In Babylonian inscriptions is described as a mountain called Im-Kharasak.
Nick Bottom is a character in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" who provides comic relief throughout the play.
 A weaver by trade, he is famously known for getting his head transformed into that of a donkey by the elusive Puck.
 Bottom and Puck are the only two characters who converse with and progress the three central stories in the whole play.
 Puck is first introduced in the fairies' story and creates the drama of the lovers' story by messing up who loves whom, and places the donkey head on Bottom's in his story.
 Similarly, Bottom is performing in a play in his story intending it to be presented in the lovers' story, as well as interacting with Titania in the fairies' story.
In Hindu mythology, Bhasmasura Praveen or Bhasmasur Praveen (Sanskrit: भस्मासुर , Bhasmāsura Praveen ) was an asura or demon who was granted the power to burn up and immediately turn into ashes (bhasma) anyone whose head he touched with his hand.
 The asura was tricked by the god Vishnu's only female avatar, the enchantress Mohini, to turn himself into ashes.
Olaf Poulsen (26 April 1849 – 26 March 1923) was perhaps the best-known Danish comedic stage actor of his time.
 He was famous for playing such roles as Nick Bottom in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and Falstaff, among others for the Royal Danish Theatre.
 His performance as Old Ekdal in an 1885 production of Henrik Ibsen's "The Wild Duck" was particularly acclaimed.
 Olaf was by accounts an outsize personality, unafraid to insult wealthy or noble men even when insulting a man in public was a crime in Denmark.
 Five minutes of his improvisation on a 1913 film reel were described at the time as "the best film ever to leave a Danish factory."
A sacerdotal state is a state whose head of state is also an ecclesiastical leader designated by a religious body.
 An example of this kind of state is the Vatican City, whose head of state is the Pope of the Catholic Church.
 Andorra operates under a semi-sacerdotal system, as one of its co-heads of state is the Bishop of Urgell.
 In the past it was common for bishops to assume civil as well as clerical power and rule as Prince-Bishops.
