He looked around in surprise, then noticed that Fred Powell was clutching his chest.

From 1910 he let Frank Powell, and then Mack Sennett direct the Biograph comedies.

Norman Fowler, then a reporter for The Times, interviewed Powell during the election and asked him what the biggest issue was: " I expected to be told something about the cost of living but not a bit of it.

Along with other Unionist MPs, Powell resigned his seat in protest and then narrowly regaining it at the ensuing by-election.

By then, Powell had been hospitalised several times as a result of a succession of falls.

Despite his earlier atheism, Powell became a devout member of the Church of England, thinking in 1949 " that he heard the bells of St Peter's Wolverhampton calling him " while walking to his flat in his ( then future ) constituency.

Upon Powell's death, Wilfred Wood, then Bishop of Croydon, stated, " Enoch Powell gave a certificate of respectability to white racist views which otherwise decent people were ashamed to acknowledge ".

He then went on to make more musicals throughout the 1950s: Let's Dance ( 1950 ) with Betty Hutton, Royal Wedding ( 1951 ) with Jane Powell, Three Little Words ( 1950 ) and The Belle of New York ( 1952 ) with Vera-Ellen, The Band Wagon ( 1953 ) and Silk Stockings ( 1957 ) with Cyd Charisse, Daddy Long Legs ( 1955 ) with Leslie Caron, and Funny Face ( 1957 ) with Audrey Hepburn.

Born in Sioux City, Iowa, William Edwards Deming was raised in Polk City, Iowa on his grandfather Henry Coffin Edwards's chicken farm, then later on a farm purchased by his father in Powell, Wyoming.

In jazz one could cite a first wave of experimenters associated with bebop, such as Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Dexter Gordon, and Bud Powell, and then a second wave associated with free jazz, including Ornette Coleman, Eric Dolphy, Cecil Taylor, Albert Ayler, and the later recordings of John Coltrane.

Unsure of what to do, Powell turned around and began descending the stairs, but then suddenly swung back around, drew a pistol, and pointed it at Frederick's head.

It had been called " Chinn's Crossroads ", and was then called Powell Town.

Powell then agreed to a request from his old friend and golf partner, comedian Jasper Carrott, taking the part of an incompetent detective in a succession of sketches that formed part of Carrott's television series.

By this time, he had already had exposure to Art Tatum, whose overwhelmingly virtuosic technique Powell then set out to equal.

Powell was a last-minute substitute for Kenny Drew, and the album of standards — Powell could not by then learn new material — showed him to be still capable of playing with some proficiency.

He also reveals that President George W. Bush, then – Secretary of State Colin Powell, and other GOP leaders played a major role in ending his career as Senate Republican Leader.

During the 1950s, Bogarde came to prominence playing a hoodlum who shoots and kills a police constable in The Blue Lamp ( 1950 ) co-starring Jack Warner and Bernard Lee ; a handsome artist who comes to rescue of Jean Simmons during the World's Fair in Paris in So Long at the Fair, a film noir thriller ; an accidental murderer who befriends a young boy played by Jon Whiteley in Hunted ( aka The Stranger in Between ) ( 1952 ); in Appointment in London ( 1953 ) as a young Wing-Commander in Bomber Command who, against orders, opts to fly his 90th mission with his men in a major air offensive against the Germans ; an unjustly imprisoned man who regains hope in clearing his name when he learns his sweetheart, Mai Zetterling, is still alive in Desperate Moment ( 1953 ); Doctor in the House ( 1954 ), as a medical student, in a film that made Bogarde one of the most popular British stars of the 1950s, and co-starring Kenneth More, Donald Sinden and James Robertson Justice as their crabby mentor ; The Sleeping Tiger ( 1954 ), playing a neurotic criminal with co-star Alexis Smith, and Bogarde's first film for American expatriate director Joseph Losey ; Doctor at Sea ( 1955 ), co-starring Brigitte Bardot in one of her first film roles ; as a returning Colonial who fights the Mau-Mau with Virginia McKenna and Donald Sinden in Simba ( 1955 ); Cast a Dark Shadow ( 1955 ), as a man who marries women for money and then murders them ; The Spanish Gardener ( 1956 ), co-starring Michael Hordern, Jon Whiteley, and Cyril Cusack ; Doctor at Large ( 1957 ), again with Donald Sinden, another entry in the " Doctor films series ", co-starring later Bond-girl Shirley Eaton ; the Powell and Pressburger production Ill Met by Moonlight ( 1957 ) co-starring Marius Goring as the German General Kreipe, kidnapped on Crete by Patrick " Paddy " Leigh Fermor ( Bogarde ) and a fellow band of adventurers based on W.

Cesar Gaviria heading the OAS session ( left ) and then US Secretary of State, Colin Powell.

Powell was born in Bekesbourne, Kent, and educated at The King's School, Canterbury and then at Dulwich College.

Powell then went on to record ( in A Life in Movies ) how:

In a The New York Times article ( correction printed January 3, 2002 ) " No president has ever used the current system or its technical predecessors in the last 50 years, despite the Soviet missile crisis, a presidential assassination, the Oklahoma City bombing, major earthquakes and three recent high-alert terrorist warnings ... Michael K. Powell, the then chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, which oversees the Emergency Alert System, pointed to ' the ubiquitous media environment ,' arguing that the system was, in effect, scooped by CNN, MSNBC, Fox News Channel and other channels ... activates the alert system nationally at the behest of the White House on 34 50, 000-watt stations that reach 98 percent of Americans ...

In 1945, the African-American jazz singer Hazel Scott ( then the wife of Democratic congressmen Adam Clayton Powell, Jr .) was excluded from performing at Constitution Hall.

On July 5, 2009, Colin Powell told CNN said that the policy was " correct for the time " but that " sixteen years have now gone by, and I think a lot has changed with respect to attitudes within our country, and therefore I think this is a policy and a law that should be reviewed.

Powell cut out and retained all his life an article from the New Statesman newspaper of 13 November 1943, in which the American Clare Boothe Luce said in a speech that Indian independence would mean that the " USA will really have won the greatest war in the world for democracy ".

Powell said that the unity of the realm had evolved over centuries and included the British Empire: " It was a unit because it had one Sovereign.

After Macmillan's death in 1986 Powell said " Macmillan was a Whig, not a Tory ... he had no use for the Conservative loyalties and affections ; they interfered too much with the Whig's true vocation of detecting trends in events and riding them skilfully so as to preserve the privileges, property and interests of his class ".

The Daily Telegraph report of the speech said that " as Mr Powell sat down, he put his hand across his eyes.

" Powell also refused to launch a public inquiry, resisted calls to issue a warning against any left-over thalidomide pills that might remain in people's medicine cabinets ( as US President John F. Kennedy had done ), and said " I hope you're not going to sue the Government .... No one can sue the Government.

During the 1964 general election, Powell said in his election address, " it was essential, for the sake not only of our own people but of the immigrants themselves, to introduce control over the numbers allowed in.

In an interview for Today shortly after her departure from office in 1991, Margaret Thatcher said that Powell had " made a valid argument, if in sometimes regrettable terms.

At the press conference for its publication, Powell said if the government introduced a Bill to reform the Lords.

Later that day Powell said in a speech to the Primrose League:

Powell said the issue of British membership of the EEC was one where " if there be a conflict between the call of country and that of party, the call of country must come first ":

" Later in the speech Powell said, " I was born a Tory, am a Tory and shall die a Tory.

In 1987, Powell said there was no contradiction between urging people to vote Labour whilst proclaiming to be a Tory: " Many Labour members are quite good Tories ".

Powell, in an interview on 26 February, said he would be voting for Helene Middleweek, the Labour candidate, rather than the Conservative Nicholas Budgen.

Powell had a copy of a State Department Policy Statement from 15 August 1950, in which the American government said that the " agitation " caused by partition in Ireland " lessens the usefulness of Ireland in international organisations and complicates strategic planning for Europe ".

On 16 July, Powell gave a speech in the Commons in which he said the riots could not be understood unless one takes into consideration the fact that in some large cities between a quarter and a half of those under 25 were immigrant or descended from immigrants.

Powell disagreed with Scarman when he said that the black community was alienated because it was economically disadvantaged: the black community was alienated because it was alien.

Powell said that the government should be honest to the people by telling them in thirty years ' time, the black population of Lambeth would have doubled in size.

On 3 April, Powell said in the Commons that the time for inquests on the government's failure to protect the Falkland Islands would come later and that although it was right to put the issue before the United Nations, Britain should not wait upon that organisation to deliberate but use forceful action now.

The next day Powell, disagreed with the Labour Party leader Michael Foot's claim that the British government was acting under the authority of the United Nations: " The right of self-defence —- to repel aggression and to expel an invader from one's territory and one's people whom he has occupied and taken captive -— is, as the Government have said, an inherent right.

On 13 May Powell, said the task force was sent " to repossess the Falkland Islands, to restore British administration of the islands and to ensure that the decisive factor in the future of the islands should be the wishes of the inhabitants " but the Foreign Secretary ( Francis Pym ) desired an " interim agreement ": " So far as I understand that interim agreement, it is in breach, if not in contradiction, of each of the three objects with which the task force was dispatched to the South Atlantic.

Powell wrote an article for The Times on 29 June, in which he said: " The Falklands have brought to he surface of the British mind our latent perception of ourselves as a sea animal .... No assault on a landward possession would have evoked the same automatic defiance, tinged with a touch of that self sufficiency which belongs to all nations ".

Powell said that " it would be difficult to imagine a more cynically wicked or criminally absurd or insultingly provocative action ".

Powell said he supposed this to mean " that the Soviet Union, which seems always to be assumed to be the enemy in question, proved so victorious in a war of aggression in Europe as to stand upon the verge of invading these islands ....
