may the lord accompany them with light and strength of spirit. and i ask the help of the virgin mary, the mother of the church, so that she accompany each and every one of us and the entire church community, so we trust in her and rely on her with faith. dear friends, god leads his church. also, especially in the difficult moments, let's never forget this vision of faith, which is the only true way of seeing the path of the church in our heart. in the heart of each and every one of us, there must be the joy of certainty that the lord is next to us. he never abandons us. and today with his love, i say thank you. le . >>> an enthusiastic outpouring of affection and gratitude for the leader of the roman catholic church, pope benedict xvi. he gave his final message. it was a deeply personal one, more personal than i would have expected. it was pastoral, it was loving and humbling. it was also at times moving. when he talked about the great responsibility that he felt eight years ago when he was elected. the request that he made of god to trust him, t

. >> before we get into the actual politics, why the lord of the rings rather than another narrative to try to explain the theories of international relations? >> the short answer is it says extraordinary completeness and complexity is the world. if you took all of j.r.r. tolkien's writings and put them together you would have the most completely specified and is it world the world that has ever been created. or example full language is the one can speak detail so accurate that you can charge phases of the moon at different points of the of the storyline in their absolute correct so the reason i say that is the complexity of the story is enough to rival human history itself. >> so now the "lord of the rings" has, i think you have in your book 14 languages. how many different species and story lines? >> the answer is, depending upon how would measure such things, literally thousands within the movies which collectively in their expanded versions were something like 11 hours long, major significant characters and plot lines that are literally not even mentioned that off. it would proba

justice and order, how are these exemplified in the "lord of the rings"? >> guest: it is a constant struggle between the two. often more when you have, the more i'm just vice versa. we look at particular storylines and situation to see how those things trade-off because a person reading the book, if you will come anyone taken us up and saying it is to get a sense of an international relations about, the conundrums and trade-offs that we struggle with a rate they are for you and me and the real world. but given the time machine. you are william jefferson clinton come extremely popular yourself, you are in trouble with the public and the congress is in the process of falling to republicans. do the right they never wanted to set and a small and cheap for us to strike down the genocide or alternatively, do you forego justice and preserve your own political position by instead staying out of rwanda and remembering the public was still pretty mad about the debacle in somalia. that question answers itself, just as traded off against each other. >> host: what abou

because he is such a christian man, loves our lord, has given his life to our lord, it shows his humanity. >> don't you think -- we have to take a break. but i really think it was generous of him to let us know him through his brother. those personal moments and all those kind of things. we have to sneak away. wonderful man, great priest and friend to the pope. we're coming back. >> we're back on mosaic. and gratefully we have father joseph who studied under and continues to know pope benedict xvi always but especially now because his final day will be soon and he will be going into retirement. he will still be alive. who is going to do his exit interview? every pope until now has had his face-to-face with the lord. >> he wasn't prepared for that. but it's interesting, there has been as you know resignations in the past but none for this reason. none for frailty and old age. i think it's an act of humility. he's a server to the church as well. he realizes that there are so many requirements that he can't serve the church appropriately in failing health. >> a precedent like this is remarka

in this mural, maya lords capture a victim during a raid. in copan, the captive would have been taken to a temple in the west court and sacrificed to the maya gods of the underworld. linda schele believes the ritual involved hundreds of people in a public ceremony of sacrifice and dance. the image of the dance has people dressed in the most incredibly elaborate costumes. it's almost like if you've ever seen the mummers dance in the thanksgiving day parade with the great feather fans around them. it was just like that. only these were iridescent, green quetzal feathers. there would have been musicians. they would have played drums this high... turtle shells with deer horns. they had great rattles like this. they had long wooden trumpets. they had whistles of all sorts, so that the whole place would have been filled with this incredible cacophony of sound. at the right moment, the king would pull a stingray spine through his tongue or cut through his genitals and pull paper or pull rope through it to draw the blood. some of the captives would

and then, as jamie mentioned work with the land lords as well. we contact the apartment association in some cases and have them sort of work on the other end speaking to the landlord complying with codes and all of that. and we have had great success. the other thing that it allows us to do is a little bit of a more of a case management model. some of our counseling that we do it is really where we are only able to sort of do an in and out and advise them a little bit and send them on the way and with this, we are able to do follow up calls and we send out post cards saying has your issue been resolved and we will track the cases thoroughly. if the people are not getting anywhere, we are able to escalate through the dbi system if we need to or keep helping them work with the landlord. i think that it provides a great service not just to the community and the tenants but to your department frankly. we are trying to do a lot of the groundwork so that these cases don't necessarily get to you. we are trying to sort of do what we can do just through t

i imagine him reflecting on isaiah that we wait upon the lord. the lord shall renew those who wait. they shall mount up and they shall run and not be wary and shall walk and not faint. we know that in scripture, dr. king found strength. in the bible he found conviction. in the words of god he found a truth about the dignity of man that once realized he once relinquished. we know lincoln had such moments as well. to see this country torn apart, to see his fellow citizens waging a ferocious war that pitted brother against brother, family against family, that was as heavy of a burden as any president will have to bear. he visited with troops and honored the dead day after day, week after week. you can see in the lines of his face the toll the war cost him. but he did not break. even as he buried a beloved son he did not break and as he struggled to overcome melancholy, despair, and grief, he did not break. he surely found solace in scripture. he could acknowledge his own doubts and he was humbled in the face of the lord. that i think allowed him to be a better leader. it's what allowed

the lord seemed to sleep.just seemed striking to me that a pope would say the lord seemed to sleep. >> chuck accident as you know, pope benedict xvi is a man of the bible and that's an episode with the gospels where the apostles are out on the sea of galilee and the storm rips up and the apostles are terrified. the lord awaits and according to the gospel story, calms the sea and rebukes the apostles for their lack of faith. that's a gentle reminder, i think, from the pope that even when the lord seems to be asleep, he is in fact still governing the church. >> all right. we will be checking in with you a lot over the next few weeks on this historic day and historic time in the history of the catholic church. msnbc will have coverage in the final hours of benedict. up next, the stream showdown over what many consider the most important civil rights law ever passed. the voting rights act could be in trouble. you are watching "the daily rundown" only on msnbc.
