What is the best type of auto insurance for an older car?
FREE Car Insurance Comparison

Compare quotes from the top car insurance companies and save!
- The age of your vehicle is one of many determining factors when it comes to buying auto insurance
- All states have a minimum amount of car insurance coverage required by law
- Personal injury protection provides coverage for medical expenses and lost wages
What type of car insurance is best if you have an older vehicle? Making a decision about auto insurance can be complex. There are a variety of variables that must be considered.
One person may opt to carry full coverage on an older car, while others will carry the absolute minimum. However, knowing what type of auto insurance is best for older cars is very important.
Read on to learn some basics of finding the best car insurance coverage for older cars and then enter your zip code above to start comparing free car insurance quotes online!
Minimum State Requirements and Recommended Coverage
It is important that you have at least the minimum car insurance coverage as required by your state. To find out what that amount is, you can contact your state department of insurance.
Insurance experts recommend no less than $100,000/$300,000/$100,000 liability insurance coverage for any vehicle on the road today.
That means that you have $100,000 bodily injury protection per person, $300,000 bodily injury protection per accident in total and $100,000 property damage protection.
In some states, other types of coverage may be required. Personal injury protection provides coverage for medical expenses, lost wages, rehabilitation costs and much more. It is mandatory in states with no-fault insurance.
Medical payments coverage covers certain medical costs also but is more limited that PIP coverage.
Uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage is also mandatory in certain states. It provides medical coverage for you or anyone in your vehicle if you are involved in a car accident.

The Age of the Car
The actual age of your car can impact the cost of your car insurance. If your vehicle is older, but not quite yet an antique, you will find that car insurance is more affordable than for a newer model car.
When the value of a vehicle decreases, the cost to insure it goes down too. It will cost less to replace or repair your older vehicle. Therefore, if a loss occurs, the insurer will have a lower claim to pay out than for a newer vehicle.
You should look at the value of your car in order to decide whether you should stop carrying collision and comprehensive coverage. These two types of property damage protect your vehicle.
However, if your car's value and the deductible you have on the car are too similar, you should look at dropping those types of coverage in order to save money. Be sure that your vehicle is paid off before dropping any coverage.
If your car is older and has little value, the best types of car insurance to have include bodily injury and property liability; personal injury protection, medical payments, and uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage.
Classic and Antique Cars
When a car is 25 years old, it is officially considered a classic car. A car is considered an antique at age 45. However, for registration and insurance purposes the definitions may be different or the terms used interchangeably.
A classic or antique car is typically valued greater than a car that is almost that age. Therefore, insurance rates for such automobiles are higher. Scarcity of parts is one of the biggest factors in the cost of insuring such vehicles.
Antique and classic cars are typically rather costly to run. Often they are gas hogs and are best saved for special occasions.
In addition, because of their value, most owners do not want to risk using them in poor weather conditions that may increase the risk of damage.
Insurance companies realize this and consequently offer insurance policies based on the number of miles you plan to use your vehicle in a year. Certain companies will even offer daily coverage or those vehicles that are used extremely rarely.
Even if your antique or classic car is rarely used, it is extremely important to have comprehensive coverage on it. This will protect it from the losses that are most likely to occur with vehicles that are usually stored.
Vandalism, theft, fire and water damage are among the perils covered by comprehensive coverage.
When you are looking for auto insurance for an older car, the best place to begin is by getting a car insurance quote using an online quote tool that gives multiple price quotes at once.

Sponsored by the Embassy of the Netherlands in Seoul, the event took place on the 11th floor annex of the National Human Rights Commission of Korea from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
The occasion served as a preliminary roundtable discussion for the exhibition of the "Amsterdam Rainbow Dress," featuring Arnout van Krimpen and Diederik Lujit from the Amsterdam Rainbow Dress Foundation, artist Nahwan Jeon, content creator SOO NOT SUE and artist group Okin Collective, among other guests.
|(Rainbow Dress Foundation)
The dress is made up of the flags of 75 countries where homosexuality is punishable by law. These flags were carried in the Pride Walk parade on the opening day of EuroPride 2016, an LGBT pride event, to raise awareness for the issue of treating homosexuality as illegal.
In addition, the bodice of the dress is constructed of four flags of the city of Amsterdam to represent Amsterdam's permanent status as a safe haven for LGBT refugees. The dress itself is enormous, over 15 meters in diameter.
The "Amsterdam Rainbow Dress" website refers to it as a "living work of art." As such, when any of the countries change their laws to no longer penalize homosexuality, its flag will be replaced with the rainbow flag, in the hopes that all the flags on the dress will turn into rainbows.
The Amsterdam Rainbow Dress Foundation has exhibited its dress across Europe and the US, including Rotterdam, Athens, New York, and San Francisco. The dress will be exhibited on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. in Seoul Plaza, where the 19th Seoul Queer Pride Parade is held. Viewing is open to the public.

ICYMI: Republicans in Retreat: Senate Recruiting Struggles Continue
On the heels of yet another top-tier candidate bowing out the race for Wisconsin's U.S. Senate seat, Republicans in the state have become a part of a national trend of top-tier Republicans running away from challenging Democratic Senators like Senator Tammy Baldwin.
"One after another, high-profile Republicans are deciding against a run for U.S. Senate," said Democratic Party of Wisconsin spokesman Brandon Weathersby. "It's no surprise that Republicans are afraid to face Senator Tammy Baldwin next fall. Her record of fighting for a Wisconsin economy that works for everyone and standing up to special interests in Washington will make her a formidable opponent for any challenger."
Here's what they're saying nationally about Republicans' recruiting struggles:
Politico: Senate GOP recruiting slow-going for 2018
"Rep. Sean Duffy bowed out early, and Republicans haven't had a clear candidate to take on Baldwin since. Nicole Schneider, a former social worker who also happened to be the heiress to a major trucking company, attracted the attention of the NRSC due to her ability to self-fund, but she's also decided not to run. Businessman and Iraq War veteran Kevin Nicholson has an attractive résumé, though he was a past president of the College Democrats of America. Businessman Eric Hovde, who finished second in the 2012 GOP primary, is still considering a bid, as is state Sen. Leah Vukmir."
GOP Scrambles to Recruit Senate Candidates
"Among the challenges facing the GOP recruiters is that the environment in Washington appears toxic, and Congress, which has struggled for years to pass major legislation, is viewed by some as an unproductive and unfulfilling job, said GOP strategist Chuck Warren, who has consulted for Sens. Orrin Hatch of Utah and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina."

Cuba's digital destination
The man with a mission to bring Meisner to Cuban theatre
The video above is a behind-the-scenes look at the performance of La Peña Meisner at El Sótano theatre in October 2011.
Blue/Orange by La Peña Meisner de la Habana
Blue/Orange is a multi-award winning play written by British dramatist Joe Penhall, and first performed at the Royal National Theatre in 2000. The play is set in a British psychiatric hospital. Christopher, a young Black man from a poorer district, has been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder following a psychotic episode. After 28 days in the care of young registrar, Dr. Bruce Flaherty, Chris is due to be released. But Bruce fears that his patient's belief that his father is Idi Amin, and the fact that he insists that oranges are blue, are warning signs of schizophrenia. If Chris is released into the community he could well suffer a terrible breakdown. A power struggle ensues…
Blue/Orange is not so much about mental illness – although that is its framework – as it is about power. And ego. And racial prejudice. As the two psychiatrists — one young and scrupulous, the other older, set on his own agenda, and utterly ruthless — square off, the patient becomes the battleground. It's a wonderful chess game of sorts.
La Peña Meisner de la Habana is an unofficial group consisting of actors and directors who have studied previously with Stephen Bayly at the Escuela Internacional de Cine in San Antonio de los Baños. It was formed in January 2012 and is dedicated to creating realistic performances in film and theatre. In the Spring of 2012 the group mounted its debut production, Las Tumbas Olvidadas, an adaptation of Edgar Lee Master's Spoon River Anthology, as part of La Semana Británica. In addition to the British Embassy, the group received support from the Escuela Internacional de Cine y Televlsion, and the Cuban Council of the Arts. The work was very favorably received, and commended for its refreshingly direct and truthful performances.
The Presentation
The work – a three-hander – has been translated by Cuban scriptwriter Julio Carrillo, and will be presented with two casts – one all-male and one all-female – playing alternate nights. Top Cuban stage and film designer Alain Ortiz will create the set and costumes. The players are, of course, all Cuban, a mix of up-and-coming and well-known actors:
Robert: Hector Noas/Maridelmis Marin
Christopher: Yarlo Ruiz/Idalmis Garcia
Bruce: Ernesto Fidel del Cañal/Yeny Soria
Blue/Orange will be mounted at the Teatro Bertold Brecht from 6 June 2013 for one month, as a presentation of Teatro del Publico. The intention of La Peña is to tour the production both nationally and internationally.
The 100×100 Club
La Peña, as an unofficial group, needs to raise funds in order to mount its productions. In the case of Blue/Orange, we have support from the British and Norwegian Embassies, the EICTV, the Escencia Group, and several UK private patrons – representing about 50% of the production budget.
Several Habaneros business people and arts patrons have decided to get behind the production and have formed a sponsorship group, the 100×100 Club, with the idea of asking for donations of 100cuc as a form of patronage. Members will be invited to the premiere and opening night party, and their patronage will be recognized in the theatre program and all printed publicity. Will you join this illustrious group, support Cuban talent, and become a sponsor of this unique endeavor?
How to Give
For further information or offers of patronage please contact Idalmis Garcia at email@example.com or phone 052835586.

Beyond what some people knew about Edgar Lee Masters's Spoon River Anthology, the publication of this book in Cuba by the Arte y Literatura Publishing House in 2007 and meticulously translated by Susana Haug and Jesús David Curbelo, aroused the interest of young readers who discovered that 244 former citizens of the fictional small town of Spoon River, Illinois could speak from the epitaphs on their tombstones.
Edgar Lee Masters (1868, Kansas – 1950, Pennsylvania), a lawyer, had published several of his books of poetry and narrative; however, the book that has transcended all boundaries is this one in which the residents of a graveyard unburden themselves and relay details from their lives. Passion, hatred, rancor, reproach, dissatisfactions, pettiness, frustrations and disappointments all emerge.
The argument of this tableau of the dead who bare their souls was an excellent basis for a theatrical production, whose challenge was to link the personal drama of each of the characters so that the play could achieve unity and coherence in the representation of poetic realism that reveals the fabric of the conservative American society of the early 20th-century.
The American actor and professor Sanford Meisner (1905-1997) used these texts to train his students in the search for organicity in the characters. Meisner's techniques are the foundation of current best practice in terms of producing a truthful performance by the actor.
Review of La Peña Meisner de La Habana
A follower of Meisner, the American director, actor and producer Stephen Bayly, has put this experience into action in Cuba through La Peña Meisner de La Habana, which is conducted by him and his colleague Mary Gowland, and coordinated by actress Idalmis García with the support of actor Fernando Hechevarría, along with other enthusiastic sponsors.
Bayly, who has been director of the School of Film and Television in Great Britain and professor at the International Film and Television School of San Antonio de los Baños in Cuba, was responsible for a unique experience at El Sótano Theater from February 21 to 23 together with a group of young Cuban actors. Spoon River and its graves was an interesting attempt to assess the stage and technical mastery of each of the performers, and bring Cuban audiences into contact with the director's aesthetics and Meisner's technique.
At the beginning of the play, Herbert Marshall's monologue (Ernesto del Canal) revealed the true cause of his pain when he turned to Annabelle and left Louise (Jenny Soriano), who would later acknowledge that, blinded by jealousy, she had tortured and poisoned Herbert. Attorney Benjamin Pantier (Yasmany Guerrero), who was buried next to his dog Nig, complained that he had been left all alone and only his faithful dog had remained by his side. Mrs. Pantier (Najla Raydan), however, lamented that she could not stand the reek of whiskey and onions that emanated from her husband, or live with a dog in a dingy back room of an office.
Emily Sparks, an old maid and a teacher with a "virgin heart" (Alicia Hechavarría) passionately remembered the young boy whom she had prayed so much for; and in his monologue, Eugene Carman (Idalmis García) explained the frustration of having been a slave of Thomas Rhodes, the church leader, all his life. Dora Williams, the milliner's daughter (Lynn Cruz), told about the extraordinary life that she had led as a rich woman, married first to a drunk and then a scoundrel, both of whom had left her considerable fortunes when they died, until the last of her husbands, Count Navigato, poisoned her. Her mother, the milliner (Najla Raydan) had an excuse for women to be happy wearing hats.
Other Spoon River deceased residents told their tales: Paul MacNeely (Yasmany Guerrero) passionately thanked his Jane for her care in his last moment. The aspiring artist Archibald Higbie (Marydelmis Martín) cursed Spoon River and was ashamed of his birthplace for its lack of culture, but the work which he had carried out in Europe had no spiritual grip and was never authentic. By refuting his epitaph, which spoke of a peaceful life, Cassius Hueffer (Joset Posada) reveals a homosexuality that is barely implied in the poem.
Spoon River's dead interact in the play: Tom Merritt (Reinier Hernández) was killed by his wife's lover, and Mrs. Merritt (Yaima Morfa) committed suicide after being wrongfully convicted to thirty years in prison for killing her husband. Nancy Knapp (Lynn Cruz), who had mortgaged the farm to keep it going, died by setting fire to the house, while Barry Holden (Ernesto Canal), Nancy's brother, led by the despair that is often engendered by poverty, killed his wife who was carrying their ninth child in her womb.
Other tragic stories complete a cast of characters that keep the monologues deftly linked together to the end: Aner Clute (Idalmis Garcia), a victim of ruthless judgment by the townspeople; Lucius Atherton (Reinier Hernandez), a decadent ladies' man turned into a beggar; the German peasant Elsa Wertman (Marydelmis Marín) who to avoid scandal, allows her seducer, Thomas Greene (Rigel Salema), to take her son—Hamilton Greene, judge, member of Congress and leader in the state—away from her; and Harry Wilmans (Ariel Albóniga), a young man who is dragged into war.
The production stands out for the meticulous realism of the sets and costumes, which contrasts with the abstraction that involves the lost souls who reel off their stories to the audiences; the concise but effective music and the value of silence; the strong dramatic structure. The play, however, suffers from uneven performances, especially when it requires introspection, but that was an anticipated risk for bringing together actors from diverse backgrounds and experience. Nevertheless, the appropriate balance is a tribute to the excellence of Edgar Lee Masters's poetry and cause for gratitude to all who made this production possible, especially Stephen Bayly, for offering his expertise, and opening new avenues for Cuban theater.

When I train I always like to know my muscles have been worked to failure and that they couldn't have given an extra rep even if there was £1M on offer! Sure, that may be a slight exaggeration but you see where I am coming from. The reason I say this is because recently I was reading about twice a day training and my initial reaction was ''what a load of bull****!'' What sparked such a reaction was the fact that like I just said, if I train a muscle group they ache for days so how the hell could I train that muscle group just a matter of hours later? However, I did some reading and as I began to understand the logic behind it I do think it does have its place. There is a very big but though, bigger than J-Lo's in fact! You must understand how to apply twice a day training correctly AND know when it is beneficial. In addition using the correct nutrition and supplementation protocol is not just necessary, it is absolutely essential!
The Application of twice a day training
To keep things simple we will talk about twice a day training in relation to arms. The idea is to hit the biceps and triceps with very low volume, high intensity training in the first part of the day. We are talking 3 working sets for both biceps and triceps after an adequate warm up with a repetition range of 5-6. For biceps I would recommend single arm preacher curls and triceps I would recommend straight bar pushdowns. Keeping the rest periods to around 90 seconds between each working set you will have long enough to recover and train strong. This first arm workout is strength related, the focus is on making the arms become stronger!
For the second part of the day you switch it up and hit arms with a volume session. Going to failure isn't advocated here because we don't want to completely pull your arms to pieces, instead we want to intelligently stimulate growth via continues tension and full muscle contractions. For this workout we are going to run with 4 lots of supersets perform 4 times each, with only 40 seconds rest between each one! The first superset will be barbell preacher curls (alternate between close grip and wide grip on each set to hit different areas of the biceps!) and straight bar pushdowns (alternate between close and wide grip to hit different areas of the triceps!). The second superset will be alternating dumbbell curls and overhead rope extensions. The third superset will be reverse grip barbell curls with rope pushdowns and the final superset will be seated dumbbell curls and upright dips! Remember, the emphasis on this workout is squeezing the bicep and triceps very hard, getting a very strong muscle contraction and forcing as much blood into the muscle as possible to help stretch out the fascia!
The application of nutrition & supplements
Training like this means that there are set rules with regards to supplements and nutrition. Before, during and right after you need to be taking in at 6g of BCAAs to help prevent the onset of catabolism! I would also highly recommend 5g of glutamine before and immediately after both workouts. After both workouts it would also be advisable to have a recovery drink which contains fast digesting proteins and carbohydrates. CNP Pro-Recover or PhD Recover 2:1 are both great choices in this instance! For the second workout it would also be advisable to take a good pre-workout such as Gaspari Super Pump MAX or PhD V-Max Pump to really emphasise the muscle pump you achieve with the volume workout!
The benefits of twice a day training
The key benefit to training like this is the pure shock you cause! Your muscles are not going to be accustomed to this and they certainly will not be expecting it. Done right this form of training could force your arms to grow like never before.
Word of caution
Before you get all psyched up and tell your missus ''sorry love but I am going to start training twice a day now, even though you don't like me training 4 times a week as it is!'' remember what this form of training is for, SHOCK tactics! Therefore you certainly don't want to make this a habit. Doing it once a month on one particular muscle group is more than adequate! Anymore could lead to a breakdown in the CNS, leading poor muscle contractions, poor recovery and catabolism!

By late morning on Wednesday, Occupy Wall Street, a noble but fractured and airy movement of rightly frustrated young people, had a default ambassador in a half-naked woman who called herself Zuni Tikka. A blonde with a marked likeness to
"I've been waiting for this my whole life," Ms. Tikka, 37, told me.
"This," presumably was the opportunity to air societal grievances as carnival. Occupy Wall Street, a diffuse and leaderless convocation of activists against greed, corporate influence, gross social inequality and other nasty byproducts of wayward capitalism not easily extinguishable by street theater, had hoped to see many thousands join its protest and encampment, which began Sept. 17. According to the group, 2,000 marched on the first day; news outlets estimated that the number was closer to several hundred.
By Wednesday morning, 100 or so stalwarts were making the daily, peaceful trek through the financial district, where their movements were circumscribed by barricades and a heavy police presence. (By Saturday, scores of arrests were made.) By Thursday, the number still sleeping in Zuccotti Park, the central base of operations, appeared to be dwindling further.
Members retained hope for an infusion of energy over the weekend, but as it approached, the issue was not that the Bastille hadn't been stormed, but that its facade had suffered hardly a chip.

That cause, though, in specific terms, was virtually impossible to decipher. The group was clamoring for nothing in particular to happen right away — not the implementation of the Buffett rule or the increased regulation of the financial industry.

Some said they were fighting the legal doctrine of corporate personhood; others, not fully understanding what that meant, believed it meant corporations paid no taxes whatsoever. Others came to voice concerns about the death penalty, the drug war, the environment.

Asian markets ended the week on a high Friday, with an afternoon rally erasing morning losses as investors changed tack on their view of comments from the European Central Bank head hinting its latest rate cut could be its last.
Regional markets sank into the red soon after opening as ECB boss Mario Draghi's statement was seen an indication of the limitations on finance chiefs to drag the global economy out of its long-running torpor.
The bank on Thursday announced a cut in its deposit rate further into negative territory as part of a series of stimulus that also included a ramping up of its huge bond-buying quantitative easing scheme -- measures that surpassed expectations.
The news sent European stocks soaring and the euro tumbling as traders gave a loud cheer, with analysts saying it beat expectations.
But within two hours Draghi told a news conference he did not anticipate making any further cuts, sparking a wave of selling that spread into Asia on fears the bank was running out of options.
Observers said central banks around the world are gradually running out of weapons to kick-start their respective economies after a series of measures.
However, investors across Asia turned bullish towards the end of the day as they reassessed their initial reaction to Draghi.
- Euro holds gains –
Tokyo ended up 0.5 percent, Hong Kong added 1.1 percent and Shanghai put on 0.2 percent. Sydney gained 0.3 percent and Seoul was 0.1 percent up while Singapore, Wellington, Manila and Taipei were also comfortably higher.
In early European trade Frankfurt and Paris each jumped 1.8 percent, while London gained 1.1 percent.
Kay Van-Petersen, a strategist at Saxo Capital Markets in Singapore, told Bloomberg News the Draghi statement was "taken out of context".
"It said we don't anticipate that it'll be necessary to reduce rates further, but nothing could be further from the truth. It's (quantitative easing) here ... for the next four to five years in the eurozone".
However, while stocks reversed, the euro held on to most of its gains, sitting at $1.1173. It had fallen to as low as $1.0822 after the stimulus Thursday and then bounced above $1.12 on Draghi's comments.
Attention will now turn to policy meetings for the Federal Reserve next week, with hopes for some forward guidance on US interest rate policy, as well as the Bank of Japan.
Oil prices resumed their uptrend after dipping slightly Thursday, with investors heartened by this week's data showing a sharp drop in gasoline reserves, suggesting demand is picking up.
US benchmark West Texas Intermediate was up 2.3 percent and Brent gained 1.7 percent.
- Key figures around 0830 GMT –
Tokyo - Nikkei 225: UP 0.5 percent at 16,938.87 (close)
Shanghai - composite: UP 0.2 percent at 2,810.31 (close)
Hong Kong - Hang Seng: UP 1.1 percent at 20,199.60 (close)
London - FTSE 100: UP 1.1 percent at 6,099.87
Euro/dollar: DOWN at $1.1173 from $1.1183 on Thursday
Dollar/yen: DOWN at 113.53 yen from 113.17 yen
New York - Dow: DOWN less than 0.1 percent at 16,995.13 (close)
Asian markets ended the week on a high Friday, with an afternoon rally erasing morning losses as investors changed tack on their view of comments from the European Central Bank head hinting its latest rate cut could be its last.

Guest Book
Free with any Song Dynasty ceramics purchase from our Early Chinese section
An excellent pictorial reference book specializing in Song Dynasty ceramics with very good informative text by Rose Kerr. This is an especially well-photographed book with about 120 color photos covering all areas of Song Dynasty ceramics including Ru and Jun wares, Xing and Ding wares, Yaozhou wares, Cizhou wares, Celadon wares, Qingbai wares, and Jizhou and Jian wares. In our candid opinion, it's not enough of a reason to purchase an antique merely for the sake of a free book, but any client already seriously contemplating a purchase can enjoy this as a free extra.
Many collectors, especially beginners, do not make enough effort to acquire good reference books, and are tempted to spend on pieces before they have really learned enough to purchase responsibly and protect themselves. But there is really no better way to educate one's eye than studying the pieces of established collections in published books. However you acquire them, we encourage collectors to amass a good reference library which over time, is essential to building a solid collection and avoiding costly mistakes.

Shoulder update; Last day of sale!
Wednesday, May 18, 2005 by John Stone
Filed under Daily Blog
I can't believe it! My shoulder is feeling SO much better! The pain I was feeling just one week ago was almost exactly the same as the pain I was feeling back in late 2003. I thought that I was going to be out of action for many months, but it looks like that may not be the case after all! I'm not out of the woods yet: there's still some amount of pain, and I have to be very careful about straining it before it's fully healed. Even though I've remained positive, I have to admit that the prospect of dealing with yet another long hiatus from strength training has been weighing heavy on my mind. If I can get back to training in a couple of weeks I'm going to be a very happy, thankful man. As the guy who helped me put up my fence said, "yeah man, you probably just strained your tendrils." 😉

Today I was reading a student's exegetical paper on Luke's "Sermon on the Plain," and the student in question cited Joe Fitzymer's Luke commentary (from the Anchor Bible series) numerous times. At one point in the paper the student wrote, "I agree with Fitzmyer that…..," to which I wrote in all caps in the margin, THAT'S USUALLY A GOOD THING TO DO." Most of my students are 19 or 20 years old and likely have no idea who Joseph Fitzmyer is or the impact he had on the field of biblical studies for the better part of five decades. Here's a fun exercise: if you are sitting in an office or in a theological library right now, pick up a few random titles on the New Testament published in the past 50 years, then go to the index. There's a good chance you will see, "Fitzmyer, J. A." at least once, probably more than once.
When I was beginning my doctoral studies at Catholic University, Fitzmyer was just about to retire. I had the privilege of interacting with him on a number of occasions and was always impressed by the sharpness of his intellect. Few scholars can boast the range of expertise that Fitzmyer displayed for so many years: Dead Sea Scrolls, Aramaic, Pauline theology, the Gospels, all elements of Roman Catholic biblical studies, and the list could continue.
Sadly, for health reasons Fitzmyer has not been writing over the past 7 to 8 years, and I'm afraid that many students currently pursuing research in our field may not know or appreciate his legacy. I once heard Dale Allison say in a lecture: "Some of the old books are still pretty good, while some of the new books are surprisingly bad." In the spirit of that quotation, I felt like celebrating a scholar whose work is, "still pretty good." I'd appreciate it if you'd celebrate along with me.

"O.K., Craig," the father asks, "you ready?"
"Yeah, Dad," replies the son.
A raw, emotional and searching conversation followed. In the latest episode of The Run-Up, we brought together a young gay actor in California, who supported Hillary Clinton, and his father in Kentucky, who backed Donald J. Trump, to talk at length about how they feel about each other's votes on Election Day.
Their conversation is the third and final installment in our series of dialogues between different pairs of voters who are struggling with feelings of betrayal, mystification and fury over the Election Day decision of a person very close to them.
In Part 1, we spoke with Kyle and Aaron, once close high school classmates from Illinois. In Part 2, we talked to Amy and Dawn, dear friends and co-workers from Wyoming.
All of them had avoided talking about the election, knowing just how difficult the discussion would be. Until now.
They were guided by a set of questions, prepared with the advice of social psychologists, that were designed to encourage honest and civil conversation.
Subscribe to The Run-Up on iTunes or Google Play Music to follow along as we release new episodes.
Craig and His Father
Who they are: Craig, 26, and his father, who asked that we not use his name. The father lives in Louisville, Ky., where Craig grew up. Craig has since moved to California.
Their relationship: They've grown more distant since Craig left home.
Why it feels personal: Craig came out to his parents about a year ago. He grew up in a family where his father was openly derogatory toward gay people and other minority groups. His father has been struggling to accept Craig's sexuality. The tension has heightened around the election, with Craig feeling betrayed by his father's vote for Trump, and Craig's father feeling pressured by his son to evolve in ways that are uncomfortable to him.
"We're from two different sides of the wall," Craig's father says. "This gay lifestyle and everything — I didn't grow up with it." He describes once, when he was younger, being followed by a man who was trying to pick him up. "I just wanted to beat the hell out of him," he tells Craig. And then he and his friends caught the guy to do just that.
"I've come a long way as far as acceptance and tolerance," he says, reflecting on that past.
"I get that you have acceptance and tolerance," Craig responds. "You accept me as your gay son. But to me that's you being a good parent. And what I need — and what I've told you — is I need you to be more than accepting of me. I need you to be an ally. To support me is to just support me. I need you to support the 'us.'"
When the conversation turns to the Confederate flag displayed in his garage, Craig's father asks what is probably the hardest of the 19 questions: "Do you think I'm a sexist or racist?"
After a pause, Craig answers. "Yeah."
He brings up the derogatory language that his father used when he was a child, which his father acknowledges was a problem and says he's working to change.
"At the time I was 75/25," the father says. "Now I'm maybe 60/40."
"60/40 what?" Craig asks.
"I guess 40 racist. And 60, you know, O.K. I feel like I'm progressing with it. I feel like I'm trying."
Amy and Dawn
Who they are: Amy, 43. Dawn, 42. Both live in Green River, Wyo.
Their relationship: Co-workers and neighbors, the women and their families have grown extremely close.
Why it feels personal: As the mother of a child with a disability, Amy was deeply offended by how Mr. Trump mocked a disabled reporter during the campaign. Dawn has her own personal stake in the election: Her husband works in the mining industry, a job she worried was threatened by Mrs. Clinton's policies.
"This election was different for me," Amy tells Dawn. "If, say, John Kasich won, I would be like 'Well, you win some you lose some.' ... I would not have been as upset as I have been, primarily because of some of the behavior that President-elect Trump has exhibited throughout the campaign." She continues:
It disturbed me not only because of my son, but because of other people in the United States who I feel are somewhat marginalized. And it's so easy, in general — and it's human nature — it's easy for all of us to say 'that's not me and that's not going to ever affect me, and so I'm going to look the other way.'
"Trump was not my first choice for the candidacy for the presidency," Dawn says, though she is a Republican and votes Republican. She says she was "disturbed" by "the way he acts and the way he thinks he can do and say these things, and can get away with it and it's okay." But ultimately, she tells Amy, "I had to refocus and reprioritize the reasons I wanted to vote for him. Not that I condone his behaviors, but the other issues were huge for me." She explains:
I worry about our community in general. It is heavily reliant on the oil and the gas and the mining industry, my husband being included in that. For me and my family, I had to think about that. Listening to Hillary's stance on these things, wanting to put all these coal miners out of business and wanting to put all these regulations on what they're doing, it stressed me out. This is our way of life.
Aaron and Kyle
Who they are: Aaron Lee Ponce Landaverde is 26. Kyle Hill is 25. Both live in Peoria, Ill.
Their relationship: Attended high school together and were teammates on the wrestling and football teams.
Why it feels personal: As an African-American who supported Mrs. Clinton, Mr. Hill took offense at what Mr. Ponce Landaverde, a Trump supporter, posted on Facebook during the election.
"I've heard race more than anything throughout this whole election, throughout this whole year," Mr. Ponce Landaverde says. "This whole year is just race. I feel like there needs to be more unity in this country." He continues:
[Race] doesn't need to be talked about. This election wasn't about that. He's not kicking African-Americans out of this country. My dad, he's Hispanic, he came from Mexico, you know. He came illegally, now he is legal. He went to school and everything, learned the language and all that after work, just so he could become legal. He's worked harder than anybody I know. And I asked him if I was upsetting him for who I was wanting to vote for. I had to explain to him multiple times that when [Donald Trump] was talking about illegals and all that, it wasn't every illegal, it was people that came over illegally doing bad, was more what he was focused about, but he didn't say it that way. If he would know how to talk, he would have done better and had more people supporting him.
Mr. Hill explained to his friend why, to him, race was a crucial factor in this election, and is a big part of why he is struggling to understand friends who voted for Mr. Trump. "A lot of what he has said, it's disparaging for marginalized people in this country — African-Americans, Latinos, gay people, women — it's disparaging," Mr. Hill says. "To a certain extent, voting for Donald Trump after all he said, after all he's done — you have to be somewhat comfortable with that in order to cast that vote for that man." He continues:
When I look at people who voted for Donald Trump and I know they know me, that kind of hurt me, man. You had to be cool with some of the stuff that he was saying, or it didn't bother you. To me I felt like if you knew me, or knew people who were African-American or people who were Latino or people who were gay, people who were Muslim, who worship Muslim faith, that should have rocked you to your core as far as the things he said, and that should have been unacceptable. A large portion of this country didn't feel that way. In my opinion, I have to look at those people a different way because there's a question, as an African-American man, would they have my back in a Donald Trump world? Like I said, I don't think you're a racist, Aaron. I don't. I could never believe you're a racist, man, that's silly, that's stupid. Can't believe you're sexist. Cannot. But part of me is puzzled.

Congrats on your win and a 6 second PR- hey, a PR is a PR! It sounds like you recovered well from the marathon even if you're not back at 100%. Also, I love that you go back and finish with your kids. The other night at a race, I went back with a friend and we paced her daughter and her daughter's friend to the finish. Both of them set PRs and placed in their age groups. Like you, I had a rough run so running with them was the best part of the race for me. Hopefully you can get some R&R before the next grand prix race.
