James von Brunn is alternately described as a decorated World War II PT boat captain, an artist and member of the high-IQ club, Mensa, as well as a notorious racist and anti-Semite.
The man who police say walked into the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in the nation's capital and started shooting Wednesday also is the author of Kill the Best Gentiles, a 200-page book denying the Holocaust and praising Hitler. In writings on what the Anti-Defamation League and other groups say is von Brunn's website, he writes a rambling autobiography and touts the tome as a "hard-hitting exposé of the Jew conspiracy to destroy the white gene pool."

I ran across this story in researching a trip to D.C.

June Shooting at Holocaust Museum

Greenpeace climbers rappel down the face of the Mount Rushmore National Memorial in Keystone, South Dakota July 8, 2009, to unfurl a banner that challenges President Barack Obama to show leadership on global warming.

I like the picture

The Bielski partisans were an organization of Jewish partisans who rescued Jews from extermination and fought against the Nazi German occupiers and their collaborators in the vicinity of Nowogródek (Navahrudak) and Lida in German-occupied Poland (now western Belarus).
Under their protection, 1,213 Jews survived the war, making it one of the most successful rescue missions of the Holocaust. The group spent more than two years living in the forests and was initially organized by members of the Bielski family.

Bielski partisans

On the run and hiding in the deep forests of the then German occupied Poland and Belorussia (World War II), the three Bielski brothers find the impossible task of foraging for food and weapons for their survival. They live, not only with the fear of discovery, contending with neighboring Soviet partisans and knowing whom to trust but also take the responsibility of looking after a large mass of fleeing Polish Jews from the German war machine.

This is a great movie and a true story to boot

A rare Bugatti supercar left to gather dust in an English garage for half a century could fetch millions when it goes under the hammer next month, a report said Thursday. Experts believe the car -- one of just a handful ever made -- could fetch as much as six million pounds (6.2 million euros, 8.7 million dollars) when it is auctioned at the Retromobile car show and sale being organised by Bonhams in Paris in February. Harold Carr, a surgeon, apparently abandoned the rare Bugatti in his lock-up in northeastern Newcastle after buying it in the 1950s. When the reclusive Carr died in 2007, his nephew found the Type 57S Atalante when he cleared out the garage and was amazed to learn that just 17 of the model were ever made.

James Knight, international head of Bonhams' motoring department, said: "I have known of this Bugatti for a number of years and, like a select group of others, hadn't dared divulge its whereabouts to anyone. "It is absolutely one of the last great barn discoveries... The Atalante is incredibly original and, although she requires restoration, it is 'restoration' in the true sense of the word.
