Tough choice when there's no staff member I'd want to eliminate, but I guess Emmeth so we don't end up with Zeta becoming socialist. :troll

As in the best of the two?
Hitler was probably the better leader of the two when it came to bolstering his nation's defences and general military tactics. He may have made poor choices when it came to things such as not creating an alliance with Japan to potentially overcome the Soviet Union or declaring war against the USSR far too early, but at least his army didn't lose to Abyssinians armed with spears and rocks or essentially be the jobber of the Axis for his tenure in WWII :alex2.
As far as the choice of which of them was the lesser of two evils, it'd be a lost cause either way. Hitler obviously had the higher vicarious body count, though it's worth noting that Mussolini was a major influence to Hitler in terms of politics, to the point opportunity is probably the thin line separating their actions.At least neither was as bad as Stalin though.

A difficult question, given the various aspects to take into account in terms of evaluating this. Alexander the Great was the most respectable in terms of conquest, though his private life left much to be desired. Cao Cao was a great leader and fairly misunderstood due to biased historical accounts of the Shu-Han, though he only ever managed to gain complete control of Northern China and never took the title of emperor. Julius Caesar had perhaps the biggest impact on human governance and was a great battle tactician, though its more due to the legacy Rome gave him than his actual accomplishments as a leader.

Overall, I'd say either Charlemagne or Constantine. The former's campaigns of conquest were unprecedented when it came to the long-term effects of what his empire meant for European culture, whereas the latter's promotion of Christianity helped make Europe the powerful continent it has been for centuries through the conversion of the pagan civilisations allowing for their more barbaric traditions to be abandoned, the ideas around the nature of God lead to major advancements in the fields of philosophy and art in the Renaissance and the resolve it provided to those practising it during war allowed for Europe to avoid being conquered by several Asian empires such as the Ottomans.

Beyond the name of the party, I wouldn't say there's much to support it when Hitler's main influences were Germany's previous imperialism as well as Mussolini's fascism.

Proof that Spacey's actions were far from a secret to McFarlane (and likely most of Hollywood), thus making the dark side of the entertainment industry even more obvious than it was already.

Hard to choose one favourite. A BBQ chicken dish I make with onions and carrots along with a variety of spices would be one, as well as medium rare steaks. Also donner kebab meat. Any sort of meat, really.
