Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH is a 1971 children's science fiction/fantasy book by Robert C. O'Brien, with illustrations by Zena Bernstein. The novel was published by the New York City publishing house Atheneum Books.   This book was the winner of numerous awards including the 1972 Newbery Medal.   Ten years following its publication, the story was adapted for film as The Secret of NIMH (1982).   The novel centres around a colony of escaped lab rats–the rats of NIMH–who live in a technologically sophisticated and literate society mimicking that of humans. They come to the aid of Mrs. Frisby, a widowed field mouse who seeks to protect her children and home from destruction by a farmer's plow.   The rats of NIMH were inspired by the research of John B. Calhoun on mouse and rat population dynamics at the National Institute of Mental Health from the 1940s to the 1960s.   After O'Brien's death in 1973, his daughter Jane Leslie Conly wrote two sequels to Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH.   The Secret of NIMH is a 1982 American animated fantasy adventure film directed by Don Bluth in his directorial debut and based on Robert C. O'Brien's 1971 children's novel, Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH. The film features the voices of Elizabeth Hartman, Peter Strauss, Arthur Malet, Dom DeLuise, John Carradine, Derek Jacobi, Hermione Baddeley, and Paul Shenar. It was produced by Bluth's production company Don Bluth Productions in association with Aurora Productions.   The Secret of NIMH was released in the United States on July 2, 1982, by MGM/UA Entertainment Co. under the United Artists label. It was praised by critics for its elegant and painstakingly detailed animation, compelling characters, and deep and mature plot, and won a Saturn Award for Best Animated Film of 1982. Though only a moderate success at the box office, it turned a solid profit through home video and overseas releases. It was followed in 1998 by a direct-to-video sequel, The Secret of NIMH 2: Timmy to the Rescue, which was made without Bluth's involvement or input and met with poor reception. In 2015, a live-action/computer-animated remake was reported to be in the works. A television series adaptation is also in development by the Fox Corporation.     Opening Credits; Introduction (1.21); Background History (4.50); Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH Plot Synopsis (6.15); Book Thoughts (11.37); Let's Rate (42.18); Introducing a Film (44.01); Secret of NIMH (1982) Film Trailer (46.00); Lights, Camera, Action (48.33); How Many Stars (1:33.30); End Credits (1.35.41); Closing Credits (1:37.18)   Opening Credits– Epidemic Sound – Copyright .

In four years, President Donald Trump went through four National Security Advisors. The last of these, Robert C. O'Brien, may have been the best fit. Prior to the current occupant of the White House, O'Brien has served in every administration of the 21st Century, including Barack Obama's. A diplomatic professional, he also advised the presidential campaigns of Mitt Romney, Scott Walker and Ted Cruz. In this, the silly season of politics before the midterms, some are talking up the former ambassador as a possible 2024 contender - but, of course, all speculation is done under the shadow of Trump who is considering his own comeback bid.

If the 20th century was defined by advances in manufacturing capability, agricultural prowess, and energy exploration, the 21st century will be shaped by advanced technologies in areas like artificial intelligence, semiconductor design and fabrication capability, cybersecurity and privacy quandaries, quantum computing and encryption, and geopolitical telecommunication security. As the United States looks at various policy issues around technology from the national security sphere to free speech to foreign malign influence campaigns, a recent Wall Street Journal op-ed by former National Security Advisor Robert C. O'Brien outlined a strategy to advance U.S. competitiveness and free expression while providing a word of warning to not empower China's technology goals. Join us for a timely fireside chat with former National Security Advisor O'Brien to examine where the United States stands in the tech race, how our adversaries are increasingly using it to even the national security playing field and promote digital authoritarianism, and where the U.S. must go to prevail in this competition.

Hugh and Ambassador O'Brien discuss the continued chaos in Kabul, Afghanistan. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fed up with the studio executives at Disney, Don Bluth struck out on his own with this 1982 feature, a loose adaptation of Robert C. O'Brien's 1971 children's book 'Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH'. While a financial disappointment upon its initial release, The Secret Of NIMH found a growing cult audience on home video and is now considered one of the finest animated films of its period. It is noteworthy for its ambitious storytelling, mature tone, maternal subtext, supernatural underpinnings, and the jaw-dropping quality of its animation. It is also frequently argued that The Secret Of NIMH, as well as follow-up projects like An American Tale (1986) and The Land Before Time (1988), spurred Disney out of its complacency and led to its Renaissance period in the 90's. Ryan is joined by Cheryl for a dialogue about this film, a pivotal artifact of Cheryl's own childhood. Thematic discussion topics include how The Secret Of NIMH subverts the Disney formula, how the film's plot is affected by having a widow as the central protagonist, and why this movie upped the ante in terms of feature-length animation in American cinema. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ryan-valentine3/support

For lower elementary: The Iron Giant/The Iron Man by Ted Hughes Farah Mendelsohn on children's sci-fi. My post about A Wrinkle in Time and The Chronicles of Narnia.

[이춘근의 국제정치 110회] ① 美 미국의 신임 국가안보보좌관 Robert C. O'Brien의 국제정치관

Spegillinn 18. September 2019 Umsjón: Kristján Sigurjónsson Tæknimaður: Hrafnkell Sigurðsson Breytingar á tekjuskattskerfinu skila sér allt of seint til launafólks, segir miðstjórn ASÍ. Óþreyju gæti eftir kjarabótum. Benjamin Netanyahu, forsætisráðherra Ísraels, er hættur við að ávarpa allsherjarþing Sameinuðu þjóðanna vegna stjórnmálaástandsins heima fyrir. Alls óvíst er hvaða flokkur fær umboð til að mynda nýja stjórn eftir þingkosningar í gær. Dósent í sagnfræði við Háskóla íslands segir ávinning við flutning íslenskra handrita frá Kaupmannahöfn til Íslands óljósan. Stjórnarformaður Atvinnuþróunarfélags Eyjafjarðar segir að Skipulagsstofnun hafi tafið lagningu Hólasandslínu um að minnsta kosti ár með því að draga að skila áliti. Lögregla hefur lokið rannsókn á máli Gunnars Jóhanns Gunnarssonar, sem er grunaður um að hafa orðið hálfbróður sínum að bana í norska smábænum Mehamn í lok apríl. Matvælastofnun barst í gær tilkynning frá Fiskeldi Austfjarða um göt á nótarpoka í einni sjókví fyrirtækisins við Glímeyri í Berufirði. Götin uppgötvuðust við köfun í kví og er viðgerð lokið. Fiskeldi Austfjarða lagði út net í samráði við Fiskistofu til að kanna hvort laxar hefðu sloppið úr kvínni. Netanna hefur verið vitjað og þar sem enginn lax veiddist hefur veiðum verið hætt. Þrír foreldrar barna sem fæddust með skarð í gómi undirbúa nú dómsmál gegn ríkinu. Í tilkynningu frá Umhyggju, félagi langveikra barna, segir að enn falli hluti barna með þennan fæðingargalla utan kerfis. Donald Trump forseti Bandaríkjanna kynnti í dag nýjan þjóðaröryggisráðgjafa sinn. Robert C. O'Brien tekur við af John Bolton sem var rekinn úr starfi í síðustu viku. O'Brien verður fjórði öryggisráðgjafi forsetans á kjörtímabilinu. Bergþór Ólason var í dag kjörinn formaður umhverfis- og samgöngunefndar Alþingis með tveimur atkvæðum, sínu og flokksbróður síns. Lengri umfjallanir: Tvisvar í haust hafa forystukonur í norsku ríkisstjórninni orðið að fara í skyndi úr heimsóknum á Íslandi til að bjarga stjórninni frá að liðast í sundur í orðaskaki og deilum. Núna varð Trine Skei Grande að yfirgefa me-too-ráðstefnuna í Hörpu til að stilla til friðar heima. Núna líður vart svo vikan að ekki fari allt i háaloft í samstarfi flokkanna í ríkissjón Ernu Solberg. Og forystukonur í ríkisstjórn mega vart bregða sér af bæ - til dæmis á ráðstefnu eða fund á Íslandi - án þess að fari allt í háaloft heima. Þær verða að taka fyrstu flugvél heim til Óslóar að róa liðið. Núna varð Trine Skei Grande, menningar- og jafnréttisráðherra, að hlaupa af me-too

In this episode of Into the Wardrobe, Shaun Duke and Jen Zink talk about the dark and somewhat terrifying — but also whimsical and often hilarious — first major production of Don Bluth films, The Secret of NIMH, released in 1982 and based on Robert C. O'Brien's book, Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH. […]
