Skip to comments.The Secrets Behind John Wayne's Many Names
Posted on 03/30/2014 11:07:03 PM PDT by kingattax
Can you believe the real name of one pop culture's most prominent icons of rugged American masculinity was... 'Marion'? The Duke himself (another name he went by, originally belonging to his boyhood pooch) would argue that the name 'John Wayne' is just as real as the one that appeared on his birth certificate.
The Hollywood legend didn't take his aliases lightly; each represented a different persona in the late actor's life and career, a subject explored in Scott Eyman's exhaustively researched new biography, "John Wayne: The Life and Legend."
"In Wayne's own mind, he was Duke Morrison," writes Eyman in his book. "John Wayne was to him what the Tramp was to Charlie Chaplin a character that overlapped his own personality, but not to the point of subsuming it."
(Excerpt) Read more at movies.yahoo.com ...
We'll never forget The Duke.
We were close friends with him and his wife Pilar.
To be accurate the "pooch" was an Airedale Terrier named Duke. When John and Duke went by the fire station the firemen said there go Big Duke, the Airedale, and Little Duke, John Wayane.
So you must have known Ward Bond, too?
Then you are in an unique position to address a phenomenon which is to be seen not just the threads of FreeRepublic but across the American culture which is the confusion of the cinematic image of John Wayne with the actual human being.
There are actors who were real heroes in World War II like Jimmy Stewart or Lee Marvin and, certainly, Audie Murphy. I would include David Niven. But it is Wayne who is held up as the iconic image of the American who won World War II. Wayne himself, not only his screen portrayals, are held up as the ideal American heroic image or at least the two have become so intertwined in the American mind that they are inseparable.
Why should this be so?
Of equal interest, to me at least, is the reflexive, virulent hatred of Wayne by the left. He brilliantly burlesqued their childish dislike of the man instead of the screen image when he appeared at Harvard riding atop a tank.
By way of full disclosure, I love John Wayne movies, I've always thought he was a much better actor than the left gave him credit for being. My two favorite roles are, The Quiet Man and True Grit but any movie by John Ford in which Wayne appeared certainly borders on the classic.
One other question, what about Wayne's equivalent of Sinatra's rat pack. We see Ward Bond and Victor McLachlan appearing over and over again in the Wayne movies is that because of their association with Wayne or because of their association with John Ford? What do you know about that dynamic? Were they really good drinking buddies? How did a behave off camera?
This book got a great review from Peter Bogdanovich in The Times yesterday. Since PB is a most fair and intelligent film expert, I'll be sure to get this. Although, I basically disagree that Ethan in The Searchers is a "racist."
That's neat!
We also have a freeper here who was invited into the Duke's trailer during one of his films and fed lunch. He was a guest on the set. My brother met him several times and always said he was very nice.
I think Walter Brennan was also one of the Duke's friends. They kind of ganged up on Montgomery Clift during the filming of Red River. Then they all wanted Clift for the Dean Martin role in Rio Bravo but Clift refused it because he didn't want to be teased by them. Dino is great in the movie but it would have been interesting to see Clift.
I don't think Wayne had a rat pack. If anything, it was John Ford who had followers - including the Duke.
I think John Wayne was held up as the epitome of bravery and the American spirit because of his unbelievable charisma and - face it - incredible male beauty. John Ford recognized this in the early 30s and set him up for stardom by his first amazing closeup in "Stagecoach." Still my favorite closeup in film history - along with the shot of Wayne in "The Searchers" after he visits the sanctuary of women who were raped by Indians.
There was no way a David Niven or Lee Marvin could compete with that image. Lee Marvin is exceptional though, in some of the Duke's movies. Liberty Valence himself!
I would include Niven as well. Left Hollywood in 1939 to serve for the second time in British Army. Landed at D-Day a few days after initial wave, was at the Battle of the Bulge and presented LOM by Eisenhower.
The propaganda films made during the war went a long way towards the moral support the American people needed , Watched The film Hollywood canteen a few months ago on the TCM channel,it was great to see all the actors showing their support for the troops.
It's interesting to watch Marvin in a number of fifties movies before he became a big star. In westerns like "Seven Men From Now" a Randolph Scott vehicle, Marvin steals many scenes. He was usually a heavy in those films, but he had that something that audiences found appealing. In my mind, that more than just acting ability makes movie stars. Charisma is something that can't be learned in acting school. Actors either have it, or they don't.
Charisma is something that cant be learned in acting school. Actors either have it, or they dont.
Please see Steve McQueen
Another one. When McQueen first appeared on the scene to many Americans it was in his western "Wanted Dead Or Alive." People just liked McQueen. He certainly was no great actor (or ham) and not conventionally handsome, but people wanted to see more of him. He had that appeal that all the pretty boys of the fifties like Tab Hunter, Troy Donahue, and others like them lacked. None of those guys had what it took to get the male audience.
Marvin was quite good in Donovan's Reef as well.
alfa6 ;>}
Never had seen that movie Seven Men from now before
Saturday nite on cable.
Lee Marvin was great in it.He walked the line between
Good and bad till the end .Gail Russel who later drank
Herself to death at early age was good in this.
Never be another John Wayne unfortunately
Included in the WW2 bunch is Humphrey Bogart. The classic trademark mouth thing was from a wound received when a zero crashed into the ship he was on. (If memory serves me)
At least none of them were "Carlos Danger."
I think John Wayne's birth name was Marion MICHAEL Morrison. Although I've also seen his middle name given as Robert or Mitchell.
True, true! A fine actor without that mix of charisma won't become a great star. Of course, I mean that in the last century. Today, a pizza waitress can become a star.
I love Marvin in Liberty Valence. He's soooooooo mean! He had a great face - that really large kind of face that directors looked for in the studio days.
Bogart was far too old to have served in WWII, but if memory serves he was in the US Navy during WWI. How he got the lisp is a subject of much conjecture and many versions of truth. I don't think Bogey was too forthcoming about the details.
Uh, McQueen was an absolutely fine actor, classically handsome, who knew exactly who he was and how to present himself on film. He took scripts and crossed out most of his dialogue because he knew that his inner thoughts would convey his emotions better than words. Superb performer. And a good comic actor as well.
Despite what you have written, Pappy Ford made Wayne's life miserable because he didn't serve. Ford was possibly America's greatest film director but such a bastard!
OK. Didn't google it, just going off an aging memory. Just one of those DVD extras that I got it from.
I rank The Searchers #1 but the trilogy cavalry flicks: Fort Apache, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, and Rio Grande are 3 of my favorites mainly due to Ben Johnson, Ward Bond, Harey Carey Jr, and Victor MacLaglen.
The is one answer to your two questions: Because Wayne WAS Iconic of a certain attitude in America. He was a symbol.
I have known all my life that Wayne "never fought a battle" because over time, usually during an advertisement for "Duke Wayne week" on the Million Dollar Movie (or some such)an adult would idly comment to that effect. There was never any contempt or venom in the remark. In the age of mass media (starting I suppose with widely circulated photography)images that are in some way Iconic resonate widely.
Do you recall the Gulf War, Time cover of the helmeted, unshaven, Marlboro dangling war-weary Sgt.? People seemed actually surprised that The Real Thing could look so improbably much like "the real thing".
Seven Men from Now...I like Randolph Scott movies!
***I love Marvin in Liberty Valence.***
Ever notice in the movie TOMBSTONE how Powers Boothe mimicked every move Marvin would have done if Marvin had been in that movie?
Ahhh, that takes me back. I can hear Tara's Theme even now. More than likely it was "John Wayne Week" on the Four Thirty Movie where you heard that sort of remark made in passing.
I just watched Wayne's first official "Republic" film the other day, "Westward Ho" (1935), one of him many little B's he was doing before finally breaking through with "Stagecoach." A dvd outfit called Olive Films has released several of these early Wayne b-westerns (including all eight of his Three Mesquiteers films) over the past year, and the re-mastered print quality is absolutely stunning. Bright and sharp, looking like they were filmed yesterday.
Okay, nice story Mr. Eyman. Now how about writing a book about all of little Barry's names and how he got them?
And this is part of why I don't like Marion. The other part is that he would insist on top billing in any movie featuring actual heroes. Men of real accomplishment are secure enough in their self-image to exercise restraint and express humility. "Wayne" could appear in a war film featuring men who had bravely fought in the very war depicted and he, a career actor, would always get lead credit. He could have, occasionally, taken a step back and allowed better men to have the limelight. It's a credit to Jimmy Steward's character that he would continue to work with The Duke and just that matter slide. Steward could have absolutely humiliated Marion if he had wanted that guy out of the way.
Besides that, "Wayne" was a lousy actor. "The Conqueror" is example of his prowess.
Actually you're right. I'd forgotten about the Four Thirty Movie. When it was Duke Wayne week they did the promo voice-over with the country song "Big John".
Sorry! I don't know Tombstone. I think the last modern western I saw was Chisum, lol!
I was going to ignore your typical freeper rant until you got to the coup de grace about "lousy" acting. You are a lousy judge of acting. In fact, I think you probably have never appeared in an acting class or taken a film course in your life - but correct me if I am wrong. Next, I'd like your opinion on ballet theater followed up by your opinion on the last staging of Aida at the Met.
Wayne was one of the greatest of film actors. That is one of his enduring legacies. Embarrassing yourself here at FR will never change that.
You will see the great silent screen beauty, Louise Brooks, in one of his 3 Mesquiteer movies. She was way down on her luck at the time she made it, fell for the Duke, but I don't think anything ever happened on that front. I had an old grainy videotape of it which got lost in one of our many moves. So pleased to read someone's post who really knows his stuff!
"At least none of them were Carlos Danger.
Kirsten Powers buddy.
The Mesquiteers movie with Louise Brooks is entitled "Overland Stage Raiders" (1938), and the print quality of that one on the new Olive dvd is probably the best of the lot. Absolutely stunning print. Probably my favorite of Wayne's Mesquiteers movies (which run from hot to cold), too. Truthfully, I never thought Wayne really fit into the Mesquiteers series too well, since his personality was a bit too much like Ray Corrigan already. Corrigan and Bob Livingston might not have liked each other in real life, but the chemistry of their prickly rivalry worked, moreso than when Wayne joined the series, taking the place of Livingston.
Never got to meet Brooks, but I did meet a few of Wayne's 1930s leading ladies over the years, like Muriel Evans, Cecilia Parker, and Adrian Booth (aka Lorna Gray). Didn't ask any of them about Wayne, though!
Yep, Overland Stage Raiders, that's it.
My brother, a Wayne expert, would probably love to talk to you. Unfortunately, he doesn't do Free Republic.
"We were close friends with him and his wife Pilar."
My wife worked in downtown Costa Mesa for several years, and would see him at the dry cleaners on E. 17th St.
He would acknowledge recognizing her, and exchange pleasantries.
We partied with them at the Istmus of Catalina throu the 60s and 70s.
We also knew the family from Glendale where he was from before he moved to Balboa.
Cheap shot!
As a kid and a football fan, one of the toughest men I ever saw was a guy named Marion...
Marion Motley, NFL Hall of Fame.

My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

F-Secure Internet Security 2009
- Spam filter worked well, scores highly in antivirus tests
- No automatic whitelisting for spam filter, needs a lot of user intervention, can be slow dealing with infected files it detects
Bottom Line
F-Secure Internet Security 2009 is accurate but suffers from usability drawbacks such as a requirement for a relatively high degree of user intervention. This makes it more awkward to use than some smarter rivals. F-Secure Internet Security 2009 delivers the goods to those prepared to wait.
Price$ 135.00 (AUD)
F-Secure Internet Security 2009 adds 64-bit Windows Vista support to its impressive reputation for finding and evicting malware
F-Secure Internet Security 2009 is a security suite comprising antivirus, antispyware, antispam, antiphishing and personal firewall tools for Windows PCs. Comparing to last year's model, improvements are modest. These include faster installation, a tweaked interface, improved anti-malware accuracy and support for 64-bit Vista.
F-Secure gave a trouble-free install on a clean PC and can automatically remove conflicting software it finds. However, check out YouTube for a clip showing F-Secure 2009 having serious trouble installing on a badly infected PC, a not unlikely scenario. For coping with situations like this, a bootable rescue CD ISO image is available for free download from F-Secure. There's also a free online scanner as well.
F-Secure licenses multiple AV technologies from other vendors and can scan files on demand, on access and on schedule. F-Secure Internet Security 2009 also scans in and outgoing POP3, SMTP and IMAP email messages.
The major independent AV group testers give F-Secure a pretty good, almost flawless, report card. ICSA Labs fully certified it for virus detection and cleaning and it has enjoyed VB100 awards for the past five years with just one exception. It's also been scored highly by AV-Comparatives and AV-Test.
In action, it can be slow dealing with infected files it detects, even though they may not actually be active — that is, they may be present in memory. F-Secure stops to look for other infections, real or imagined. It's thorough but erring on the side of caution can make it very slow.
The firewall puts all of your system's ports into stealth mode, making it invisible to outside hackers. It has a long list of 'pre-approved' programs but it still asks many questions about allowing Internet access to programs. For example, the F-Secure tool for gathering system data for tech support is a standard tool, nslookup — which F-Secure didn't recognise.
F-Secure's antispam subtly integrates with Vista's Windows Mail (adding its own Sidebar gadget). All MS email clients are supported and it's easy to use others such as Thunderbird.
The spam filter worked well, correctly identifying and moving spam to the Deleted Items folder without further ado. It can also make use of Real-time Block Lists to improve its accuracy. It's a shame it doesn't 'whitelist' automatically.

Plus: Great customer service, maintenance, design, amenity package. Minus: Trash control; pool cleanliness; abused shrubbery; building exteriors nicely painted but splashed with mud lines; chipped railways.
Loving this place. A place of tranquility. I am most certain that if anyone chooses Archstone Pembroke Landings as their home of resident, it would be one of the best choices and investments they could have ever made in their lives. The atmosphere, decor, security, online service center, office staff and maintenance, and neighbors I will rate nothing less that awsome, surperb, the best. Thank you Archstone, Ebony G.
The maintenance area is lacking when it comes to fixing some things in the apartment
Initially thought the apartments were quality for the price but, after living here for almost 8 months I've had to call maintenance almost every month. I've had problems with leaks , mold and appliances just to name a few. The staff have done a good job of responding to my issues but, given a choice I would rather not having to call them.

What is a Certified Resident?
A resident who lives at the property and has completed a resident satisfaction survey.
Advertising properties provide a list of email addresses of its residents to Kingsley Associates, a third party market research firm, who then sends out the satisfaction survey to the residents. Properties may also conduct satisfaction surveys of its residents through other third party market research firms. In those cases, we will publish those survey responses as long as the questions conform to our standard survey format.
Because reviews are from Certified Residents, and are managed by a third party, you can feel confident that the feedback provided is accurate and trustworthy.

LIGHT POLARIZBR AND PROCESS OF MAKING THE sm:
Filed May 12. 1948 2 smETs-sm'r 2 INVENTOR. JO$EPH MAHLER ATTORN v Patented Dec. 4, 1951 SEAKUH uuu LIGHT POLARIZER AND PROCESS OF MAKING THE SAME Joseph Mahler, Brookline, Mass assignor to American Optical Company, Southbridge, Mass., a voluntary association of Massachusetts Application May 12, 1948, Serial No. 26,667
4 Claims. (01. 88-65) This invention relates to light polarizers and more particularly to a curvilinear polarizer capable of lamination to a curved surface, such as g wmfii of k n the sa mien is a continuation-inpart of my earlier filed application bearing Serial Number 704,413, and filed on October 19, 1946, now patent 2,515,830, issued July 18, 1950.
It is now well known that the molecules of certain groups of plastics, such as cellophane and polyvinyl alcohol, can be oriented into parallelism and, when such plastics so treated are stained with a polarizing dye, for example, a dichroic dye, a light polarizer is formed. The plastics aforesaid cannot be stretched to effect the orientation of,the molecules thereof until they have been softened by heating. When a sheet of plastic is softened by heating and subsequently stretched to secure the desired orientation of its molecules, the plastic is likely to split in the direction in which it is stretched, which, of course,.is the direction of the orientation of its molecules. For this reason, it is impossible to laminate such material to curved surfaces; in fact, the lamination thereof to flat surfaces is difllcult and is successful only when great care is used.
In order to handle a film which has been stretched after heating, it is necessary to secure it to a film base, such as cellulose acetate or the like. A polarized film anchored to a base film cannot be laminated to a curved lens or between two curved lenses because the base, being still, does not readily assume the curvature of the lens or lenses or adhere thereto.
Another diiiiculty preventing the lamination of a polarizer having its molecules oriented in linear parallelism to a curved lens or between curved lenses is that a substantial distortion of the polarizer will result when it is forced out of its original plane surface to assume the configuration of the lens.
When a sheet of such plastics has been softened by heat and stretched to orient the molecules thereof, the surface of the film is hardened to such an extent that a dichroic dye cannot readily penetrate the surface thereof and if the time of .treatment is extended in order to secure the necessary penetration, the distribution of the dye is not uniform even in small areas.
It is highly desirable that a polarized sun glass, if used by one whose vision is defective, should comprise optical glass lenses ground in accordance with the lenses of the spectacles worn by vision requiring correction by spectacles, it is desirable that the polarized film of his sun glasses should be laminated to a curvilinear surface for the reason that when the polarizer is laminated to a plane surface, the glasses form a mirror which reflects into the user's eyes light impinging upon the rearward surface of the glasses.
It is therefore one of the objects of my invention to provide a curvilinear polarizer having such qualities that it is capable of lamination to a curvilinear surface without splitting.
Another object is to provide a lamination or sheet of polarized material having its molecules oriented curvilinearly, that is to say, one having its molecules oriented on both sides of its longitudinal axis, the orientation on each of the sides of the sheet being convex to that of the other.
Another object is to provide a sun glass lens, or other lens, comprising one or a pair of curvilinear lenses of optical glass having a plastic polarizer laminated to one such lens or interposed between a pair of lenses, such lenses eventually to be ground by an optician to fit the eyes of the user.
Another object is to provide a plastic the molecules of which may be oriented and stained to form a polarizer without first softening the same by heat.
Another object is to provide a process for producing a sheet of polyvinyl alcohol, cellophane or any other suitable plastic material which is substantially water insoluble, which has high fiexibility when moistened, which is stretchable at a temperature even as low as 1 C., to orient its molecules, and which, when such molecules are oriented curvilinearly, is capable of application to, and will assume the shape of, a curved surface without splitting and can be bonded thereto by a suitable adhesive.
Other objects of my invention will appear from the detailed description of the particular embodiments thereof selected to explain the principles underlying the same.
In the drawings:

Fig. 2 is a side view of the same.

such user. If the user does not have defective 5 P 8. 6 is a P V w On a Smaller Scale indic ing a curvillnearly polarized film and the curvilinear lens to which it is to be laminated.
Fig. 7 is a plan view of two curvilinear lenses having a polarized firm laminated thereto.
Fig. 8 is a section on the line 8--8 of Fig. 7.
Figs. 9, 10, 11 and 12, are diagrams illustrating the several stages in the lamination of my polarizer between two curvilinear lenses.
I have found that when a sheet of polyvinyl alcohol or cellophane, each of which is water soluble, is treated with a suitable reagent in the manner hereinafter set forth, the physical characteristics of such sheet are so altered that the sheet is of low water solubility, in fact, practically wat r insoluble, has high flexibility when in moistened condition, is readily stretchable at "room" temperatures, (20 C.) or even at as low as 1 C., to orient its molecules and is capable of application to a curved surface, assuming the shape thereof without splitting in the direction of orientation and that said sheet, if stained with a dichroic or other suitable dye, becomes an efficient polarizer. It is to be understood, however, that I do not limit myself to the plastics above named.
I have found that suitable reagents for treating a sheet of polyvinyl alcohol are solutions of alali metal salts, such, for example, as a solution of sodium sulphate having a concentration of about 100 grams per liter of water or a. solution of sodium phosphate (monobasic) or potassium phosphate (monobasic) of about the same concentration. While sodium sulphate (monobasic), sodium phosphate (monobasic) and sodium su phate work particularly well, it is to be understood that my invention is not limited specifically to the use of these reagents, for resorcinol may also be used with good results.
The time of treatment of the sheet depends upon its thickness and the temperature of the bath, for example, for a sheet of plastic having a thickness of about .003 inch, and a bath temperature of about 1' 0., the time of treatment will be about three minutes and if the temperature of the bath is about 20 0., such time will be about one minute. If the sheet is of greater thickness the time of treatment would be slightly longer.
If the plastic to be treated is cellophane, I
prefer a caustic alkaline hydroxide, such, for example, as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, and such sheet so treated will have substantially the same characteristics as those above set forth with respect to polyvinyl alcohol.
A sheet of either of the materials treated as above will readily accept a dichroic or other suitable dye which will almost instantaneously distribute itself uniformly into the plastic after the molecules thereof have been oriented, thereby making a polarizer of the proper density and shade.
While at the present time I prefer sodium sulphate as a reagent for giving polyvinyl alcohol the properties outlined above, it is to be understood that sodium sulphate and potassium phosphate (monobasic) are full chemical equivalents, producing products which aside from their differences in degree of water solubility and acidity are full chemical equivalents and that sodium phosphate is the chemical equivalent of sheet to be treated to the cross bars.
4 is to say, the central longitudinal axis, if, as shown in Fig. 1, the film is stretched longitudi nally, as indicated by the arrow, and the. orien-. tation on one of the sides of the film will be convex to that of the other. v
I consider as embraced within the scope of my invention all other plasics which when treated with suitable reagents will be of low water solubility, high flexibility when in moistened condition, stretchable at a tempera'ure as low as 1 C., or lower, for curvilinearly orienting their molecules in the manner above stated, and capable of lamination to a curvilinear surface and assuming the shape thereof without splitting in the direction of orientation.
There is shown in Fig. l, a stretcher which I have found convenient for orienting the molecules of plastic sheets treated as above set forth. The stretcher comprises two flattened U-shaped members In hinged together in any suitable manner, as indica ed at H. In the present instance, the flattened lower ends of the side members I! take into the bifurcated upper ends of the sides I3, and preferably, as indicated at I4, the conformation of the lower ends of said flattened portions is such that the two U-shaped members can be roiated to lie in the same plane, or only slightly beyond such plane. Pivoted to each of the cross bars, l5, near one end thereof, is a clamp l6, comprising an arcuate clip of spring material of substantially the same length as the cross bars and constructed to embrace and snap over the latter to securely hold the ends of the Each of said clips has a circumferential length slightly greater than 180, and the outer edges thereof are flared outwardly, as shown at IS. The free edge of each clip terminates in a finger piece l6" extending beyond the cross bars.
Any suitable holder may be employed to retain the stretcher in semi-closed position, preparatory to clamping the ends of a sheet plastic to the cross bars. In Fig. 5, I have shown such holder comprising the plafes II, which are pivoted to a bracket rising from the base Ill. The angle be tween the plates which, of course, governs the angle between the side members of the stretcher having been determined, the plates may be clamped to the semi-circular guide I! by screw 20. Having determined the degree of stretch of the film, the plates are set at the proper angle and the stretcher disposed in the holder between them as indicated in Fig. 5. The ends of the film are now placed over the bars l5 and firmly clamped thereto by the clips I 6, one of which, in Fig. 5, is shown in open position. The stretcher will now be removed from the holder and immersed in the chemical bath above specified, and after remaining there the proper length of time, the side members of the stretcher will be rotated about their pivot until the two U-shaped members lie in the same plane.
As indicated by the lines 2|, 2|, the width of the film will be progressively reduced from its respective ends to its central portion. The direction of orientation of its molecules will be curvilinear, as indicated by the broken lines 22. The sheet, which is now extremely flexible, will bond to the convex surface of a lens, such as that shown at 24, a suitable adhesive or bonding material 25 having first been placed on said surface of the lens.
This may, preferably, be done by grasping the ends of the stretcher and placing the central p rtion of the surfaceof the film against the cone vex surface of said lens (Fig. 9) and then forcing the film do n over said convex surface (Figs. 8 and 10). Thereafter. by an infra-red heat lamp 2.. or other suitable heating means, the film and bonding material are quickly dried. The film is then re oved from the frame and the portions extendingbeyond the peri hery of the lens are trimmed oil. A coating of bonding material 2! is now placed over the concave surface of the other lens 21 and the lens 24 with the film bonded thereto is pressed firmlv down on the concave surface of the lens 21 (Fig. 12) thereby forming the laminated curvilinearly polarized lens shown in Fi s. 7 and 8.
As indicated in Fi 7 the curvilinear orientation obtained when the stretched surface of the film is substantially planary is changed to substantiallv linear parallel orientation when the film is laminated to the spherical curvature of the lens. Thus where the radius of curvature of thelens, and its dlametrical dimension is known, by controllin the initial dimensions of the film. when in position on the stretcher, before stretching and the length of the stretcher. a desired curvilinear orientation of the molecules of the sheet may be obtained on stretching that will be transformed into an orientation in linear parallelism when said film is chan ed from a plane to the s herical curvature of the'surface of the lens. For example. for a 50 mm. lens having a 6 diopter curve, which is the curvature of be exercised so that the lines of orientation are same thereto, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A molecularly oriented sheet of transparent plastic material comprising a stretched sheet of plastic having when disposed in a substantialLv plane shape its molecules linearly oriented so that on opposite sides of a centrally disposed axis the directions of orientation of the molecules assume a uniform and convexly curved linear relation on each side of said central axis, with the curved linear relation on the same side of said axis being disposed substantially parallel, said convexities I on the opposed sides of said central axis being the usual sun-glass lens, I have found that a inches will have substantially linear parallel, orientation of its molecules when laminated to a lens of such curvature. It is pointed out that when laminating an unstretched planary film to the curved surface of the lens, the orientation of the molecules is changed so that its axis of absorption is deformed from parallelism to a convex or O-shaped pattern. Applicant proposes to initially stretch the film so as to provide a concave pattern (lines of orientation having their convex sides disposed toward each other on either side of the axis of stretch of the film) on the film such that when the film is laminated to the lens this convex or O-shape pattern will not form but the convexly opposed lines will be deformedto linear parallelism. The film need only-be oi"v an initial width sufilcient that the lines of orientation tangent to the opposed sides of the lens will be of the reouired curvature which will de-f form when. the film is laminated to the curved surface of the lens to straight parallel lines. In obtaining this straight line parallelism of the m5 sultant lines of orientation in the final-curved article the amount of deformation present dur; ing the actual laminating of the film to the lens must also be considered. Thus in the example, the ends of the film held by the clips are moved downwardly about an inch from a plane position tangent to the center of the lens. This distance as well as the change in dimensions of the film by stretching will of course vary proportionately from the example given, according to the curvature of the surface to which the film is to be' bonded. Almost any degree of curvilinear orientation may be initially obtained for the film by vaying its initial width and the amount of stretching. Likewise the amount of tension exerted on the film during the laminating process controls the accuracy or the resultant parallelism The important feature is that sumcient control toward each other, said sheet being adapted to be subsequently formed to a substantially meniscus shape, and the amount of convexity of said orientation of the molecules being controlled according to the steepness of meniscus shape which it is adapted to assume whereby the direction of orientation of said molecules on both sides of said central axis when the sheet is in said meniscus shape will have a substantially straight line parallel relation with each other.
2. A molecularly oriented sheet of transparent plastic material comprising a dyed and stretched sheet of plastic having when disposed in a substantially plane shape its molecules linearly oriented so that on opposite sides of a centrally disposed axis the directions of orientation of the molecules assume a uniform and convexly curved linear relation on eachside of said central axis, with the curved linear relation on the same side of said axis being disposed substantially parallel. said convexities on the opposed sides of said central axis being toward each other, said sheet being adapted to be subsequently formed to a substantially meniscus shape, and the amount of convexity of said orientation of the molecules being controlled according to the steepness of meniscus shape which it is adapted to assume whereby the direction of orientation of said molecules on both sides of said central axis when the sheet is in said meniscus shape will have a substantially straight line parallel relation with each other.
3. The process of forming a light polarizer of the character described comprising rendering a sheet of plastic material of substantially uniform width stretchable at room temperature, stretching said sheet only in a direction perpendicular to its width and intermediate given spaced locations to cause the molecules thereof to assume a uniform and convexly curved linear relation on opposite sides of a central axis and disposed in the direction of stretching and to simultaneously cause said molecules to assume a substantially parallel relation on each side of said central axis with the convexities on said opposed sides of said axis being disposed toward each other, causing said sheet to assume a substantially intimate fit with a cup-shaped surface of a transparent element and securing said sheet to said element in saidrelation, the convex relation of said molecules of the plastic sheet being so controlled in said stretching step according to the curvature P' 1' v; v u'mm ,v y

|Reviews for Take Me Away
| SnooksterTooLazyToLogin chapter 18 . 6/5/2012
Sweet Jesus, They Need To Leave Tobi Alone Before I Magically Crawl Into This Story And Beat All Of Their Asses With My Ninja Skills.
| Ascendead Master chapter 18 . 6/5/2012
This is one of the most depressing parts of the story... Poor Tobi! :( Itachi's such a jerk for doing this... I know I've said it before but I don't want Tobi to die! XD But anyways... Awesome chapter, and I look forward for your next update!
| SnooksterTooLazyToLogin chapter 17 . 6/2/2012
Yay! Madara's Getting Better! -w-
| Ascendead Master chapter 16 . 6/2/2012
I hope Madara gets better soon! And I'm glad Itachi finally showed some emotion other than anger. :) But since I also read the story before you began rewriting it, I know that Itachi's anger will come back.
But anyways, awesome chapter! Update whenever you get the chance. :)
| Snookster chapter 14 . 5/21/2012
UGGGHHH! This Story Makes Me So Mad! I Love Itachi But He's Such A Brat! Why? Why? Leave Tobi Alone! Friggin Irachi, Sheesh His Emoness Is Getting To Me! Update Soon, I Wanna Know What Happens To Madara.3
| Ascendead Master chapter 13 . 5/20/2012
Yay update! Itachi is such a jerk! :( poor Madara and Izuna..
I think the implied MadaIzu is fine. :) So no need to get rid of it.
| Arithena chapter 12 . 5/11/2012
Itachi is my favorite. But I want to kill him for being me to tobi-kun
| Maximoffs forever chapter 12 . 5/9/2012
WAAAAA why are you so cruel Itachi, WHY!
| Ascendead Master chapter 12 . 5/9/2012
Yay for the update!
I know it probably will happen anyway since that's how the story went, but I don't want Tobi to die! :( it hurt my heart the first time and it probably will again.
But it's your story, so you have the freedom to go about it any way you want. xD And I'll keep reading no matter the outcome. I look forward to the next update!
| Ascendead Master chapter 11 . 5/8/2012
Awesome Chapter!
Poor Izuna and Tobirama! :(
I'm really hoping you go more into Itachi's mind. It'd be interesting to find out exactly why/when he started changing, and why he hates Madara and Izuna and only cares about Sasuke. It'd also be nice to know why exactly Itachi hates and beats up Tobi, even though Tobi has been there with Itachi through everything.
But I'm sure however you go about this story will be good! :)
| Maximoffs forever chapter 11 . 5/5/2012
I love the loving relationship in this story, it portrays Madara as a very different and loving person and shows how much he cared for his brother.
Please continue.
| Ascendead Master chapter 8 . 5/3/2012
Yay for the update! :D
I am glad to see the story is progressing. It's really good! :D
| Guest chapter 5 . 4/22/2012
This is the best fanfic I read so far
| Ascendead Master chapter 4 . 4/19/2012
I am glad you are continuing with this story! :D It is good so far! I look forward to the future chapters! And I am also glad that you seem to be updating a chapter a day! :D Thank you!
| Suzukauchiha chapter 1 . 4/19/2012
Omg I love this story plesseee add more chaps

Love the purple watch and the bling adds so much. I have had many compliments. I volunteer at a no-kill shelter with felines, and the watch fits right in. I also "click" every day!!
- December 13, 2015
Excellent service. Product delivered in timely manner. The watch exceeds functionality and reliability. Always receive positive complements. Excellent item for the money!!!
- September 11, 2015
I ordered this on Labor Day (Monday) and received it 4 days later even with the holiday. Beautiful watch, perfectly described. It was slightly difficult sizing the band but once my husband did it, its perfect. Thank you for the wonderful service you offer and helping animals. I *click* every day!!!
- August 6, 2015
I got my watch in like 4 days! It's exactly what I wanted! Good quality! I went to a jeweler to get the band resized, i would recommend doing that instead of cutting it yourself unless you know what you're doing because you can't go back once you cut the length! My first watch, a diamond fell out within a day, and I emailed customer service to ask for exchange, and they just sent me a new watch and told me to just keep the old one. What wonderful people! I absolutely love my watch!
- March 23, 2015
Absolutely love this watch! It's larger than I usually wear but so cute and love the purple! Was very easy to size as I have a small wrist and needed to cut it down a bit. One of my favorite purchases from this site!

If There's A God In Heaven (What's He Waiting For?) Lyrics
Artist: Elton John
Album: Blue Moves
Written by Elton John and Davey Johnstone
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Torn from their families
Mothers go hungry
To feed their children
But children go hungry
There's so many big men
They're out making millions
When poverty's profits
Just blame the children
If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for
If He can't hear the children
Then he must see the war
But it seems to me
That he leads his lambs
To the slaughter house
And not the promised land
Dying for causes
They don't understand
We've been taking their futures
Right out of their hands
They need the handouts
To hold back the tears
There's so many crying
But so few that hear
If there's a God in heaven
Well, what's he waiting for
If there's a God in heaven
What's he waiting for

Bartomeu promises long-term Messi power for Barca
06 March 2014 [09:30] -
The Argentina international will be rewarded with a pay rise at the end of the season, according to the Blaugrana supremo, who wants the 26-year-old to retire at Camp Nou.
Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has revealed that Lionel Messi will sign a new and improved contract with the Catalans at the end of the season that will make him the best-paid player in the world.
The Blaugrana supremo recently already stated that the Liga champions are keen to reward the Argentina international for his sustained excellence and has now made it clear that the aim now is to persuade the 26-year-old attacker to commit himself to the club for the remainder of his career.
"We want him to be the world's best-paid player and during summer everything will be sorted," Bartomeu was quoted as saying by AS.
"We won't sell him. He's with us and hopefully he will retire at the Camp Nou."
The Barcelona president also had his say on Carles Puyol's announcement that he will leave the club at the end of the 2013-14 campaign.
"I don't know what he will do in the near future, but I'm convinced he will come back to the club because he still has so much to give," Bartomeu said of the veteran defender.
"He's been an example for all of us with his fighting spirit. What he's achieved at Barca is sensational."
Puyol has racked up nearly 400 La Liga appearances for the Blaugrana since making his first-team debut during the 1999-2000 season.

At age 74, Galveston's Lucy McMahon is a record-holding international powerlifting competitor, and on Dec. 8 she will be competing in the Global Powerlifting Alliance/International Powerlifting Organization World Championships in Moscow.
One of the mantras in our colleges and universities — and maybe in advanced high school classes, too — is that we must teach students to think critically.
The video tape player, an ancient thing, had been repaired and put in good order within the last year or two, so I popped the tape in and sat back to watch and recall the story.
