Looks More Important Than Health For Young Women Seeking A Tan
"The feeling is 'I tan, I feel good, I'll look good tomorrow . . . What's health?'" said Jay Yoo, Ph.D., an assistant professor of family and consumer sciences in Baylor's College of Arts & Sciences. He conducted a study of 182 Caucasian female college students, with an average age of 19.7 years. In the study, published in the current issue of Household and Personal Care Today, they indicated that their appearance was the primary motivation.
"The study confirms that targeting appearance-conscious consumers, in particular young women, will be successful, as long as the quality of the tan is promising," he said. U.S. consumers account for 50 percent of global sales of over-the-counter self-tanning products. Young women, who are the most frequent users, are not concerned about skin cancer unless they see it in themselves, a family member or someone else they know, Yoo said. "And women ages 19 to 22 aren't worried about wrinkles and premature aging."
Participants were given a questionnaire listing 14 statements about appearance and asked to answer them on a five-point scale ranging from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree." Those who strongly agreed with such statements as "Homely people have a hard time finding happiness" and "I should do whatever I can to always look my best" were more likely to use all of the sunless tanning items mentioned in the study, Yoo said.
Young women in particular, who are more frequent users of tanning creams, gels, lotions and other products, see sunless tanning as a complement to UV (ultraviolet) tanning, but it should be promoted by manufacturers as "a substitute more than a complement," Yoo said.
The study showed that use of tanning creams, lotions and bronzers was more significant than other products - perhaps because some participants view bronzers more as cosmetics and because tanning gels and pills have not yet penetrated the market and may not be viewed as an alternative to UV tanning, Yoo said.
Participants' attitudes toward bronzers (powders/moisturers) was most positive, followed by tanning lotions, creams, sprays, "fake tanners" (such as towelettes), gels and pills. Shortcomings that might hinder use of sunless products included streakiness or an unnatural look or color.
Understanding consumer attitudes toward use of sunless tanning products is important for promotion of public health as well, Yoo said.
Previous research supported the notion that sunless tanning products became popular as public awareness about skin cancer increased and people decreased their amount of exposure to ultraviolet rays of the sun or tanning beds. But recent studies also have shown that other reasons are to avoid wrinkles, sun spots, sunburn or discomfort from being in the sun.
"In order to increase the use of the products as a safer alternative, it's important for manufacturers to find what will actually trigger use," Yoo said. "For some, it's 'Appearance, appearance, appearance.' But for others, the enjoyment of getting a tan can come from playing sports or engaging in outdoor social activities.
"For those people, tanning products should be idealized as a lifestyle choice by framing them as a fashion phenomenon or as something that plays an important part in those social and leisure activities, rather than using them indoors."
While sunless tanning products provide a safe alternative to UV tanning, people should be mindful that sunscreen also should be used.
Yoo, who teaches fashion theory and the history of dress, said that throughout much of history, light skin has been seen as desirable because it indicated a person was wealthy or refined rather than a member of lower classes who worked outside and were exposed to sun.
Tans caught on in the 1920s, when iconic designer Coco Chanel got sunburned while spending time in the French Riviera. Her fans liked the look and began emulating her.

With the cold weather looming and the flu bug making its rounds, it's time to protect ourselves and children against the dreaded flu virus this season.
General recommendations like washing your hands, cough into your sleeve (not your hands), get a good night's rest, etc are all things we should be doing on a daily daily but should be more aware during this time of year.
We always hear about upping your vitamin C intake during flu season. However thats's not the only thing you should be doing. For a more complete attack on the flu bug it's suggested to increase not only your vitamin C but vitamins A, E and D as well.
Vitamin C: The recommended daily allowance (RDA) for...
adult men is 90 mg
adult women 75 mg
If you're interested in learning more about vitamin C and how much to take based for a particular life stage, go HERE.
Vitamin A:
If you're interested in learning more about vitamin A and how much to take based for a particular life stage, go HERE.
Vitamin E:
Vitamin E is also a fat-soluble vitamin that can be found in vegetable oils, nuts, seeds, turnip greens, avocado, egg yolk, liver and fortified cereals. An antioxidant that protects our cells and vitamins A and C from destruction.
Vitamin D:
This sunny vitamin aids in the absorption of calcium and promotes the hardening of bones and teeth. You can get some of your vitamin D intake from direct sunlight but not enough for your total daily intake. Foods that contain vitamin D are fortified dairy products, fish, liver, mushrooms and margarine. Cod liver oil is a good Omega-3 supplement with the added benefit of vitamin D.
A dietary intake full of a variety of colorful fruits and veggies along with a few other tasty foods can help give your immune system that extra boost needed.
Consult with your health practitioner if you choose to supplement any of these vitamins.

A Hurried Explanation
My wife immediately stood and rushed to my side. "What's wrong, Michelle?" she asked. I knew she'd be able to read my face instantly. She's an employee of Dr. Paul Ekman, the leading authority on non-verbal communication and micro expressions. (Basically, she can tell what your true reactions to anything, and your emotions about whatever's being discussed, just from watching you.)
"We have to pack, Claire." I replied. "Come with me to the bedroom, and I'll explain as much as I can while we work." We walked upstairs and grabbed a few suitcases out of the closet. I began packing practical things, like clothes and toiletries, while she worked on getting what had the most value, both sentimental and monetary. As we worked, I explained everything that had happened, not without quite a few interruptions and questions. When I finally finished my narrative, she sat motionless for a few beats, staring into space, trying to get a grasp on what was happening.
"What are we going to tell our friends? Jim, Jason, Laura? What are they going to say?" (She didn't ask about family because we didn't have to worry about them. They wouldn't have anything to do with us, something about our relationship not being old fashioned enough for them. We hadn't heard from family in nine months, not since we announced our engagement.)
"I don't know what we can tell them, Claire. I don't know if we can tell them anything at all." I said sadly. Our friends meant the world to us. At that moment, we heard a car drive up to the house. Doors opened and shut, and we heard Olivia Greensburg's voice, shouting that we'd better hurry; we were almost out of time. We grabbed a few last items, zipped up our luggage, and took one last look at our room. Who knew how long it would be before we saw it again. We hugged: a long, tight embrace, and I told her that no matter what happened, we'd always have each other. Then, prompted by Ms. Greensburg, we picked up our bags and headed out to the Government Issue black Suburbans, to leave our old lives behind, and go to wherever the winds of fate would carry us…. Most likely to a secret briefing center, first of all.

Discussion in 'Colorado Football Message Board' started by drew6236, Aug 9, 2009.
11 pts is nice. Hope to beat them by a much wider margin, though. 4 TDs would be a good beginning.
We will crush them. We beat them by 21 points last year, I expect adding another TD or two to that spread this year. CSU SUCKS!
I'd be perfectly happy if Cody goes 6-10, with 100 yards....
...so long as the 4-headed monster at RB has a field day...total offense at over 500 yards & 7 TDs.
take CU -11 & the over
I think CU -11 is a good bet, but I actually think the under might be a good bet.
I could see something like 35-14. Our offense is going to have some issues out of the gate without Simas, a couple new linemen, and a new offensive coordinator. CSU has questions on offense as well. I know the defenses also have some issues, but offenses seem to take more time to gel. I think the 1st half could be pretty low scoring and we gradually wear them down.
If you're going to bet on this game, get your bet in now. I expect this line to move up before kickoff. CU by 11 against a dog ass lammie squad is a no-brainer. If we don't win by at least 21 points, I'll be worried.
No way we beat them by 21. They will play up as always. Close game.
They can only keep it close when they have the horses. They don't have the horses. The only way this game is close is if CU turns the ball over 6 times.
Not true. We seem to make those guys look like all americans every year. Gartrell Johnson sucked before the CU game. Then he went nuts on us and continued off that to have a good year.
CU always seems to play down to the level of competition.
The rams have an experienced good OL and they have 2 damn good wr's in morton and greer. If CU's dl and LB's don't play better this year against the run, teams like csu will be able to pound the ball and go over the top. We have some very good db's but if we don't get pressure on the QB, they won't look as good.
CU on offense must be able to run the ball and I don't mean for 175 yds either. Without smith and simas, this looks like a TE/RB passing game unless simmons or ussery can provide some plays. That will be tough right out of the gate. Maxwell and espinosa are 5-8 and have little experience if any.
I was feeling better about winning by 21 or more again before saturday, now I see a close game with struggles in the passing game.
Fairchild isn't sonny,he doesn't play the woe is me game and he can coach.
Another thing, Our OL needs to dominate the line of scrimmage vs their small front 7. No excuses.
Can I state the obvious on the offensive side of the ball?
1)We are basing our unstoppable WR production on 2 guys who have never played. Simmons and Simas (One of whom will be suspended for 2 games). Oh, and two TRUE FRESHMEN.
2)The strength of our offense is the reason our offense sucked total balls last season - the OL.
3)We have the best stable of RB in the nation, but we had the same stable (minus lock) last year.
We won by 21 last year and we are playign in Boulder this year with a more experienced team. CSU lost a lot. Buffs by 28-31 points
What is wrong with Scotty?
Buffs +500 to win Big 12 North. I'd throw down $10 to win $50.
I think Fairchild is a good coach. I think CSU will start a QB with little experience. I think that and CU's DBs are enough to slow any CSU passing game and I don't think CSU will be able to extend drives by running the ball. I don't expect CSU's offense to score more than 17 points.
Assuming Kiesau calls a competent game, I think the Buffs win going away. A lot of CU turnovers or an underreliance on the running game will make the game closer than it should be.
What about scotty. People seem to forget he is on the team. He always has a huge game against CSU with at least one TD. I think that will help tremendously with our passing game and young WR. He is more than reliable and aparently a step quicker this year. As long as he get separation he has always benn good.
Whats the line on DScott doing something like this?

Thomas: Fear
We were all standing around this spot in the temple that was supposed to open up right overhead a battalion of soldiers. And I was frightend. I've fought many times while I've been with this group, but this seemed different. And Fanaalm was talking about Sarine of the Dark Dragons. I've only heard legends of her, but those legends were terrifying.
"Is it actually true that Sarine was once so bored that she destroyed the world before reforming it?" I asked.
"I doubt it, but her power is something to fear." Soren replied.
"But," I started, "What if we end up having to fight her?"
Soren's face looked grim, "Well, we will try to destroy her to the best of our abilities."
"But, it won't just be her." Derrick interjects, "We also have the Dark Dragons to worry about, from the legends I know they have two forms, a human warrior form and a dragon form. But they have dangerous magic, it doesn't follow the same rules that ours does."
"So, what will we do?" I asked.
"This might be the end." Derrick replied.
"Or, it might be a new beginning." Gwendolyn said.
"Well, whatever happens, I'm glad that I've spent these past months together. And if the end is coming, it will be an honor to die next to you guys." I said, starting to tear up.
"Hey," Soren yelled, "We're not talking about that right now. We're going in alive, and that's how we're coming out."
"Ok, then let's go in." I smiled.

Trinity Blood (GN 1)
Title: Trinity Blood
Volume: GN 1
Pages: 192
Distributor: Tokyopop
Release date: 2006-11-07
Suggested retail price: $9.99
Age rating: 16+
It is the distant future, a post-apocalyptic world after the destruction brought about by Armageddon. The war between humans (Terran) and vampires (Methuselah) continues, now as a struggle between two factions: the Vatican and the New Human Empire. Yet, amidst the bloodshed and violence, many desire a peaceful co-existence between the two species. However, standing between them and this goal is the Rosenkreuz Orden, a group of vampire extremists who manipulate the two sides and pit them against each other.
To combat them, the Vatican special operations group "AX," led by Cardinal Caterina, must use everything they have - even a vampire who preys on the blood of other vampires.
Story by Sunao Yoshida and Art by Kiyo Kyujo.

(Here are found words, pictures and videos from the SXSW adventures of P. Nick Curran and Addison Post)
My introduction to South by Southwest came last night at a co-op loft show near University of Texas' campus. A girl in a pink tutu sat alone under a streetlamp sipping a forty on a pile of broken beer bottles.
The thing about THE NATIONAL is that each of their albums has been the kind of thing that's taken me a few listens to get a real handle on and more listens still to really start to love. I mean that as a compliment: Alligator was one of the best albums of the last decade. But this particular tendency makes it difficult to form snap opinions of their new songs in isolation (especially when they debut via NBC's streaming video player and its inherent poor audio quality).
OMG, dudes, it's a week before DROPKICK MURPHYS begin their annual St. Patrick's Day hometown stand. And, this being an Olympic year, it's also the release of another Live on St. Patrick's Day CD/DVD, on the band's Warner Bros-distributed label Born & Bred. And, this being an early-Easter year, it's also about a week and a half before Opening Day.
The good thing about the new SHE & HIM video for "In the Sun" -- the teaser track from the all-star duo's forthcoming Volume Two (due March 23 on Merge) -- is th at it's all Zooey Deschanel, all the time, and M. Ward gets exiled to cutaways in which he fiddles with his blackberry.
The even-better thing about the new video? Zooey being paraded ar's ound a darkened high-school in dance routines reminiscent of American Idol group karaoke, Glee showstoppers, and Britney in her Catholic-schoolgirl phase.
This past Tuesday, in the midst of the messy snowstorm, our friends over at On a Friday presented a show at Great Scott featuring New York's GROOMS. We weren't there or anything, but judging from these videos (shot by one Addison A. Post), it sounds like the 90s revival is continuing apace. More below.
Lesson to lesser metal bands: there's no need to stop at just covering an Ozzy song. If you're gonna re-do an '80s classic, go hard or go home: put on the pirate blouse, rent a pornstache, crank up the smoke machine, and set the focus on soft. To wit, the video for Shadows Fall's version of Ozzy's "Bark at the Moon":
Our sister station WFNX scored an exclusive living-room-style acoustic show with TEGAN AND SARA, who stopped by the Ames Hotel in Boston on Saturday before their Orpheum Theater gig. The sisters played for an audience of about 20 listeners (and us) -- but fear not, if you weren't among the winners, we've got video right here.
"Hansel and Gretel Re:Imagined" | MassArt Pozen Center | January 13, 2010
Video-of-video -- especially when it's Flip video of a major-scale video installation -- is never gonna cut it. That said, we had to do something to gesture at how good the Zebbler-curated "Hansel and Gretel Re:Imagined" VJ showcase was.
. . . he gets weirder. New album promo for his "lost" third album Close Calls with Brick Walls contains no music -- probably not a bad idea; it was released a few years ago in Japan, and we recall it being pretty just OK. But the video does include Andrew's interpretive-dance recitation of the Darth-Vader-uses-the-dark-side-to-throw-shit-at-Luke scene from The Empire Strikes Back, this time starring a toy santa, a blow-up lobster, and a big white dog.
Pretty & Nice - Capsules from Julian Furtak on Vimeo.
This past week, star pupils PRETTY AND NICE and rookies-of-the-year candidates MYSTERY ROAR played at the Middle East upstairs. Our friend Julian Furtak of the local blog On a Friday was there to capture moving (and still) pictures.
For every Taylor Swift, Avril Lavigne, and Britney Spears -- that is, for every 15 year old who submitted to the studio system, allowed herself to be made-up and songwritten into superstardom -- there's 10,000 who did all of that and still didn't make it. Before she was old enough to drive, Waltham's NOELLE LEBLANC was hanging out in basements with a local producer and singing other people's songs.
PASSION PIT REMIX LADY GAGA + BEYONCE's "TELEPHONE." For those of you who think that Passion Pit is a passing college fad, well, this probably won't change your outlook. But it's another brick in the wall for those of us who are anticipating a full-on top-40 pop assault from the Pit. We're teasing, but only a little bit, because we have some undivulgable inside dope about who is shopping for Michael Angelakos's beats these days.
Last week, Joanna Newsom announced her new album, Have One On Me, via a cryptic webcomic on the Drag City site. And so on Monday, she previewed some of that new material at a show in Australia. It sounds more accessible than most of Ys to me, but not necessarily in a bad way. More new songs down below (hat tip to Stereogum), titles unknown at this time.
On Tuesday, longtime OtD favorite M.I.A. tweeted the above video with the message "THERES SPACE FOR OL DAT I SEE." As it turns out, the song is called "Space Oddyssey" and will be on the next M.I.A. album (the one with the Verizon customer service people on it). The song, according to reports, is a repsonse to a New York Times travel piece calling Sri Lanka the number one "place to go" in 2010 - something she wasn't too happy about.

I knew it was easier to brush my hair when it was dry but, sadly, that was not an option. The process involved in drying my hair was far too time consuming, and besides, it would dry while I was outside anyway.
"Hey, Ellen, d'you want to come and brush my hair for me?" I shouted in the direction of my open bedroom door.
The answer I got was a squealing noise from downstairs.
Ellen was my little sister. She was six years old, short for her age and had gained a head of wild, flame red hair , seemingly from nowhere. Her favourite thing to do was anything I suggested because, for some reason unbeknownst to me, she seemed to think I was the best person on the planet.
She pulled the brush through my mounds of thick black hair as gently as she possibly could.
"Can we go on an adventure?"
"Well I'm going for a walk in the woods," I said. "You can come with me if you like."
Ellen agreed to this idea and rushed off to her room to get her 'magical defending ribbons'. On our way there, she explained that these would help us if we saw witches in the shadows and would show that we were friendly to the fairies who put the sparkles in the sunbeams which peeked through the trees.
She then gave me one of these ribbons and told me to tie it around myhead, amd I obliged.
At some point during our walk, my mum rang.
"Maggie, you've been out for three hours. Tea's nearly ready."
"Oh, sorry, lost track of time."
"I didn't say you could take Ellen out on a walk."
"You did say I could take Ellen out on a walk," I immediTely contradicted her.
There was a pause. "Alright then. Be back by five, okay?"
"Yep," I said. I did not know why my mother believed that blindingly obvious lie, but she always had believed my lies. It was weird and it didn't make me a very trustwrothy person, in all honesty.
Just as it started raining, Ellen squealed and pointed towards some forest undergrowth . She ran into the plants and I follwed her cautiously, curious as to what she had seen. Bits of plant were getting stuck in her hair.
"There's a door" she said, and gave it a tug. "It won't open. I think witches have magicked it shut."
It was quite amusing that she was deadly serious about this. She actually thought this was the logical reason.
"Oh really?" I questioned, searching the area around this mysterious door. It was built into what appeared to be a huge pile of brambles, but I guessed there must have been some sort of rock beneath.
I could tell Ellen was eager to explore, but there was no way I was letting her do that without knowing what was there myself. It looked dangerous and, having walked through the woods many times before, I was pretty sure there was a steep drop quite close to here.
"Um, I think we'll have to have to head off home now, Ellen. But I'll tell you what, but we'll come back next week and explore, okay?" I'd return before then and make sure it was safe enough.
Ellen'sface lit uo and she nodded vigorously, making water fly out of her now sopping hair.

Dish Network Corp. announced at NTEA's 2013 Work Truck Show that it plans to incorporate 200 Roush CleanTech propane autogas-fueled Ford E-250 cargo vans in its fleet in 2013.
The satellite-TV company estimated that these new propane autogas-powered vehicles could reduce carbon dioxide emissions by as much as 12.5 million pounds over the lifetime of the fleet's operation when compared with gasoline-powered counterparts.
Dish said its new altertative-fuel vans will be placed into service in Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.
"Dish expects to save about $2,500 per vehicle in annual lifecycle costs due to a 55% reduction in fuel costs and the cleaner burning properties of propane autogas," said Erik Carlson, executive vice president of service and installation at Dish.
Dish said since private, on-site propane autogas refueling infrastructure is cost-effective; it makes it economical for Dish to install refueling stations at each of the company's initial deployment locations.

Wars and Warriors: Joan of Arc
Reviewed by Yuri Storchak
Genre and what to do:Strategy game. Joan of arc inspired her country to defeat the occupying English troops. Take part in the most intense battles of Medieval Europe. Control the legions of military units. The players can transform from a single warrior to a military leader. When you succeed in battles other military leaders join your campaign.
Style and atmosphere inside the game:A third person combat view. The graphics is good but it is difficult to get used to camera angles. The game is speedy but it is easy to play it. With the game's progress the campaigns become more difficult. The attacks are powerful throughout the game. Use a good strategy against the enemies and defeat them!

Your GMC dealership isn't the only place to buy trusted repair parts to fix your Sierra 3500 Classic. When your GMC Sierra 3500 Classic left the factory, it was destined for a driver who wants longevity in their automobile. Obviously, you bought your Sierra 3500 Classic because you understood you would be getting performance and rugged design both rolled up into one vehicle. Car aficionados appreciate the strong looks built into each GMC, and know that only top quality replacement Sierra 3500 Classic parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done.
Some of the most effective emissions reduction equipment on automobiles today also helps improve gas mileage. The vapor canister purge solenoid is one part on your GMC Sierra 3500 Classic that does both jobs. This part is located on or near your gas tank, and when you start your engine the GMC Sierra 3500 Classic vapor canister purge solenoid vents built-up gas vapor from inside the tank to your intake manifold so it can be used in combustion. When you open your gas cap and hear or feel a burst of gas vapors, then the vapor canister purge valve may have failed.
Given all the hassles associated with installing a part to fix your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the first place you go to make buying it easy. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents on the phone with enough expertise to help you buy the correct GMC Sierra 3500 Classic part for your needs. Don't let a broken Vapor Canister Purge Solenoid Valve spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by installing anything but the highest quality replacement parts. If your car or truck was built in 2007, then you will find the correct GMC Sierra 3500 Classic Vapor Canister Purge Solenoid Valve parts right here.

Hello everyone,
I'm using spicework but I can not in any way to make the discovery of my Cisco IP phones (79xx series and some ata, about 550 devices). those ip phones have only enabled the web interface and it doesn't need username or password.
Spiceworks does not allow access via http without at least the username. I created an http spicework's account with http username "anonymous" and password "anonymous". the test seems to work but do not add http or voip devices to the inventory.
Can anyone help me?
sorry my terrible English.

Typically, your Cisco IP phones will be setup on a seperate VLAN, like VLAN 10. You need to ensure that you have a scan setting to scan the appropriate IP range on this VLAN, like 172.16.0.0. Depending on your configuration, you MAY need to add a route between your voice and data VLAN, if it does not already exist. Test this by doing a ping from your spiceworks (or device on the same network) to one of the IP's of an IP phone.
Mar 24, 2011 at 10:58 UTC
Thanks for your answer, but the ip of spiceworks machine is in the access-list of permitted machines. the ping works perfectly and it can also access to web interface of cisco ip phone.
any other ideas?
Mar 24, 2011 at 11:44 UTC
Check the SNMP community that is set on the IP phones and ensure the spiceworks SNMP scan is set to match. Be careful to ensure you use the same version of SNMP that is being used on phones.. if not clear create accounts in spiceworks for each and test each in turn. I believe v2 works best, as v3 requries authentication.
Mar 25, 2011 at 3:28 UTC
Unfortunately I am not able to operate on the call manager to enable snmp. I was wondering if I can only use http or at least the cdp protocol.
I also noticed something strange: if I perform the scan of a single phone, crawling it correctly identifies as "VoIP device" but when I scan a ip range Spiceworks finds no voip devices.
I just can not understand why this strange behavior.
any further help would be greatly appreciated
Mar 25, 2011 at 7:07 UTC
When you create a Scan setting, below the normal 3, there is a link: Have other account types (ESX, vSphere, HTTP, Telnet, Enable)? use this to create an HTTP login if you haven't already. When I supported call manager, I did not disable snmp scanning on the phones, so it just worked....
Jul 26, 2013 at 9:38 UTC
1st Post
not to sure if you have fixed this but we had the same issue. Running call manger version 8.......security on the phones was this issue.....make sure the web access is enabled on all the devices and it will then work. As long as you also have the right ports i.e. HTTP/HTTPS enabled on your firewalls....

Jorhat is an important tourist destination of Assam.Jorhat, as the name signifies, was just a couple (Jor) of markets (Hat). Two parallel markets namely, Chowkihat and Macharhat, lay on the eastern and the western banks of the river Bhogdoi. Jorhat as "The last Capital of the Ahom Kingdom", has archeological values associated to Rajamaidam — the last burial mounds of the Ahom kings. Nestled in the tea gardens dotted around sprawling in and around the city, boosts of the Tocklai Research Association (TRA) is the oldest and the largest tea research station of its kind in the world. The place has always been one of the most vibrant regions of the state, exhibiting a perfect blend of tradition and modernity. The place has regular and well maintained transportation facilities, to cater to the heavy tourist rush that it enjoys every year. Reaching Jorhat is easy, as the city has good connectivity with the major regions of Assam and also with the different parts of the country. Let us know in detail, how to reach Jorhat.

Learned how position and displacement differ., Position is the location and a specific time whereas displacement undergoes motion and describes the total distance the object traveled.
Learned the difference of speed which is a scaler and velocity which is a vector., Both have magnitude but velocity also includes direction.
Learned how to visually depict a motion diagram along with position versus time graph., Continued on at a later day to draw the relationship between velocity and time along with acceleration and time.
Evolved from P1 which was not linear motion to P2 where we built a different launcher more sling shot style in order to aim at a target and create linear motion.
Looked at with P1 where the motion of the marshmallow was not linear and more so circular motion.
Also for P3 motion was
Began to look into force when we created out marshmallow launchers and force was what allowed our marshmallows to be launched its total distance., Force also came into play when talking about Newton's 3rd law: when force is applied by someone or something, then an equal force has to be applied back to that person or thing., Newton's law was discussed through P1 and also P3 when we choose Diving as our topic and the divers downward force on the board became important in order to apply Newtons law and gain maximum force from the board to create momentum in the y-axis (upward direction) to complete the dive.
Beginning to look into energy for P2., For Project two energy was transferred from the sling into the marshmallow, which then created kinetic motion. Motion from marshmallow was then transferred into the target which stopped the motion of the marshmallow.
Three ways to get energy in and out of system: Working, heating, and radiating.
Energy stored as spring energy, spring energy is then transferred into kinetic motion (energy stored in somethings motion).
Energy does not get destroyed, but instead transferred into the system stored in the gravitational environment.
Looking into extensive properties of matter: mass, weight, volume and length these variables became vital for some of the equations., Ex. Force=mass*acceleration, Acceleration, force, velocity, range, etc are dependent upon a subject's mass, weight, volume, and length.
Commentary on others weekly neat videos along with emailing other classmates to discuss or compare answers on specified activities.
Effective communication through phone, email, and in person was what allowed me to complete my group projects, without effective communication the whole project will fail.
Through the neat videos that we upload weekly we are able to see how simple things that we see in everyday life can be related to physics., The neat videos I uploaded include soccer, diving, and the trampoline which through physics we can explain how motion occurs and makes the movements possible through velocity, force, acceleration, time, and several other factors.
Filmed different variations of motion such as walking, running, and launching a marshmallow that was uploaded into Loggerpro which allowed us to analyze the motion along with graph velocity, position, and acceleration in accordance with time.
Worked on project one with Brianna and Leo to create a Marshmallow Launcher and once created we put together a tech glog explaining the physics of it., Learned the hard way through P3 that not all group members are reliable so by effective communication with the remaining of my group we were able to work around the weakest link to finish the needed work for the project.

Master Charlie
Master Charlie was a championship thoroughbred American race horse born in Great Britain in 1922, from the proud winning line of the famed New Zealand horse Carbine (horse) [1]. Colts and fillies of distinguished ancestry bring high prices for their hopeful heredity. Master Charlie was purchased for $1,000 in 1923, by turfman William Daniel of Chicago.[2]
Master Charlie was sired by Lord Archer-Bachelor's Choice, who was sired by Spearmint_(horse)-BARONESS LA FLECHE , who was sired by Carbine (horse), the famed New Zealand Thoroughbred racehorse. (1)http://www.pedigreequery.com/master+charlie

Can someone help me with the ejbc task. Here is my problem. I am deploying on weblogic 5.1.0 as well as other versions and app servers. So... I create a generic jar containing my bean classes and helper classes and ejb-jar.xml. Then in separate targets I use the jar task to add the vendor deployment descriptor i.e weblogic-ejb-jar.xml to the generic jar. For the weblogic.5.1.0 target I need to run the weblogic ejbc against the jar produced (this is so I can drop the jar into WL target without running the WL deployment tool) . So my problem is ... I can't use the ejbjar task weblogic element as I already have my jar. So I thought I could use the ejbc task passing in my jar file. But I can't see how to so this, i.e running ejbc with a jar input and not source input. Any ideas? Thanks. Matt

First Passive House breaking ground in Pittsburgh
A supremely energy efficient house with "no fancy PV arrays, wind turbines or other green bells and whistles," is in the works in Heidelberg Borough and will be the first of its kind in western Pennsylvania.
Action Housing Inc. is in charge of the project — a three-bedroom home being built to a Passive House standard.
That's a German system of constructing airtight buildings that need little to no outside heat or cooling sources to keep comfortable.
The agency hired Friendship-based architecture and design firm Thoughtful Balance Inc. to design the 1,800-square-foot house.
According to Michael Whartnaby, an associate with Thoughtful, the house will cost about $225,000 to construct, minus the two-car garage. An identical, non-Passive House would have cost about $200,000 to build, he calculated. That's a markup of only 13 percent, lower than some might expect, because the standard house would require a much more expensive heating and cooling system.
Factoring in the energy savings — Action Housing predicts the annual heating and cooling cost will be around $240 — Whartnaby said his modeling suggests the owners will recoup the difference after five years.

Revealing The Life Of Irene Dunne
By Adele Whitely Fletcher
... Her stage triumphs... The advent of Dr. Francis D. Griffin - and domesticity ... "Show Boat"... Hollywood successes - and the sweet sorrows of a long distance marriage
THE Dunne family lived in Louisville, Kentucky, when Irene was a little girl. Later they moved to St. Louis, Missouri, and Irene went to a convent school. The family were comfortably off - Joseph Dunne was a successful engineer. A big handsome man - and a wonderful father. He died when Irene was in her 'teens. It nearly broke her heart. But gradually - there was work to be done and y younger brother, Charles, to help forward in life - Irene recovered. She studied music at the Chicago Conservatory. Came to New York to get a job. And after some lean months, got one in Peggy Wood's "Clinging Vine." She understudied Miss Wood - and one night the star couldn't be there. Irene played the role - so well that the producers sent her on the road with the show in summer. Then, there followed a successful summer season in Atlanta, Georgia. A gay season. Lots of parties. And at one of them, Irene met the most attractive man in Atlanta. They saw a lot of each other. Everyone told Irene he'd had heaps of girls and never took any of them seriously. But that was all right with Irene. She had her career, after all. Then - one day - he didn't telephone...
Irene was resentful. She had not planned to take the young man any more seriously than she felt he planned to take her. "Girls as well as boys can have romantic interludes withoug losing their hearts," she had reasoned. "Quite as well." And even while she had said all this to herself she had been falling in love.
Later that morning when her young man did telephone at last she was extremely cool. She wouldn't be like all the Atlanta debutantes who went mooning over him. He'd never know how she felt. On this score she was determined.
Her coolness brought him, post-haste, to her hotel.
"I had to come," he said. "You sounded so strange. What is the trouble?"
"Nothing," Irene told him with elaborate indifference. "Not a thing. Why you think anything the trouble is more than I can see."
But her eyes weren't indifferent. They weren't any more indifferent than his eyes. And in his eyes his heart hung.
Now their casual days were over. They were in love. They both knew it. the both counted only those hours which they spent together.
Her Atlanta engagement ended, Irene had to return to New York. He followed. Without her quiet loveliness he found his home city as barren as a prairie. In spite of all the intrigued debutantes. In spite of all the designing mammas.
In New York, with Irene between engagements, they were together form early morning until late night. They were going to be married. Then, suddenly, they weren't going to be married at all. The crush, young and violent while it lasted, began to wane. Irene started rehearsing for "The Prince Chap." The young blood turned back home.
Rehearsals for "The Prince Chap" were held on the New Amsterdam Roof. One morning Irene recognized Florenz Ziegfeld going up with her in the elevator. She was glad she was wearing a smart blue crepe, that her small hat with its perky nosegay of garden flowers was ultra smart. Aware of Ziegfeld's eyes on her she turned her best angle toward the famous girl-glorifier.
"Ziegfeld Offices," called the operator, bringing the car to stop, flinging open the grille door.
Ziegfeld stepped aside for Irent to pass. He assumed any pretty girl in that elevator must be getting off at his floor. When Irene made no move to pass he looked surprised. Surprised and a little put out, too.
Ten minutes later a business-like young woman came up to the roof. Irene was sure she was Mr. Ziegfeld's secretary and that she was there to see her. She was.
"Did you just come up in the elevator with Mr. Ziegfeld?" she asked, coming over to Irene, marking the perky nosegay of garden flowers on her hat by which, it developed, she had been told she might recognize the right girl.
Irene nodded.
"He'd like to see you," she secretary said. "He's casting."
"Thank him," Irene said, "and explain I'm in rehearsal here."
"Nevertheless," she says, "I had a strong feeling that one day I'd be associated with Florenz Ziegfeld. But I did not dream of the great change that would come into my life in the meantime."
And little did Irene dream the evening friends telephoned to ask her to a party and she hesitated whether to go or remain home and study, dead set upon becoming as proficient in her French as a Parisienne, that the future pattern of her entire life rested with her decision.
It was the new red dress hanging in her closet which decided her.
"I'll go," she said.
SINCE her last crush had petered out she had been studying and working steadily. She was ready for gaiety again. As a matter of fact, this was probably what had prompted her to buy that dress the week previous.
It was a very simple dress. Very smart. Owning it made dressing rather exciting. Irene brushed her soft hair until it lay smooth and bright. Her quiet eyes were eager.
Later, in the famous Gold Ballroom, the dance music was perfect. It had swing and rhythm. Even going from one partner to another, even walking out to the dance floor, Irene must dance a little. And hum a snatch of whatever song they happened to be playing.
It was after a waltz when she was leaving the floor with her partner that she saw a tall, well-built young man, very dignified in his well-cut tail coat, coming towards them.
It was all very casual. There was nothing about it to warn her that in this moment lay her destiny.
"Irene," said her partner, "may I present Doctor Griffin?
"Doctor Griffin, Miss Dunne."
Irene smiled.
The doctor bowed.
Never, Irene decided, had she seen more level blue eyes. He was serious-minded, this young doctor. Of that there could be no doubt. But he had humor, too. His leve eyes were washed by laughter.
"Could I have the next dance?" he asked, "or isn't that possible?"
"I'm sorry, " Irene said. She was sorry. She liked this tall fair New Englander. Tremendously. Immediately.
"What dance may I have?" he asked. He would pin her down.
"The third after this?" She quite intended it to be a question but her voice leaped out of control to make it a very eager, hopeful question. The tone of her voice said, quite plainly, oh dear, I hope that will be all right!
"Thank you," he said, "I'll come for you." He had a nice dignity. And a friendly warmth - a very sincere warmth - besides.
Too many times when you really talk to a man he becomes less attractive than he promise to be.
However this was not the case with Francis D. Griffin of the New York Dental Association. After the first dance Irene liked him better than ever.
He asked for her telephone number and she gave it to him.
In the car on the way home Irene's friends teased her.
But Irene smiled and refused to commit herself. Francis Griffin might never call after all. Indeed he didn't call her for three weeks. Then one morning Rosemary Paff, with whom Irene was rooming again, knocked on her door.
"Telephone, Irene. A Doctor Griffin."
He wanted Irene to have dinner with him that night. He suggested he come for her fairly early and they drive up the Hudson. It was March but there was spring in the air.
He drove a low blue car. And he drove it well. You had no fear he was going to bash into the car ahead, that he wasn't going to brake it neatly when he rounded curves.
They arrived in time to watch the sun spill its fire on the swift Hudson before it dropped behind the Hills on the Jersey shore. Then they went inside to the table he had reserved.
"Did it matter to you when I didn't call you?" he asked Irene.
"Yes," she answered honestly. "I was surprised you asked for my telephone number if you didn't mean to use it."
"I didn't telephone," he told her then, "because I knew you were the girl for me and I didn't feel I was quite ready ... So ... I stayed away. As long as I could."
"I liked him, too," Irene told me. "Ever so much. More than ever after that drive and dinner. Like many New Englanders - he was a neighbor of Calvin Coolidge's in Northampton - he finds life a serious business. But he's never - well - heavy about it."
TOGETHER Irene and Francis Griffin rediscovered New York City. They found the streets from the end of which you could best view the sunset. Late afternoons he was through at his offices and Irene was through rehearsals and study for the day.
Her next engagement would be in St. Louis. With a summer repertoire company similar to that in which she had played in Atlanta the summer previous.
The St. Louis engagement would take her away from him. That wouldn't be desirable, goodness knows, except that away from him she might be able to think more clearly. At his side she wanted only what he wanted, even if she had wanted something diametrically opposed to this a few minutes previously.
"It's better for both, of us that I go away for a bit," she told him that night they dined together before he took her to the train. They both had been strangely silent all evening. "It will give us time to think, time to make quite sure."
"I need no more time," he said quietly.
It was very hard to walk through the train gate, to leave him. But if she didn't turn around, if she kept right on, one trimly shod gray foot in front of the other, her eyes on the porter's scarlet cap, she soon would be on the train. And since she had not gone through the gate until the very last minute the train would start almost immediately. Then there would be nothing she could do about it. She would be on her way.
"By July first," laughs Irene, "I was back in New York. Shopping for my trousseau. While my mother planned the details of our wedding at aun uptown church and the reception which followed at the Plaza.
"We were married on July sixteenth. Not being superstitious I wore green. Green chiffon. And a large hat with a crushed apple green velvet bow."
Only a few Dunnes and Griffins heard Irene make her vows in her steady, soft voice, heard Doctor Griffin make his vows quietly but obviously gladly. It was later at the Plaza reception that all their friends gathered round to whisper they never had seen a lovelier bride, to nibble on little cakes rich with marzipan, and brush away the silly tears people always shed at weddings. One of Irene's school friends caught her orchids, silvery white like an angel's wings.
They sailed, Irene and Doctor Griffin, on the Berengaria. While the busy, puffing tugs nosed the great ship out into midstream they stood together on the top deck. They were off. To another world. And they stood hand in hand.
In Paris the lived near the Bois and one sentimental afternoon they laid roses on the tomb of the Unknown Soldier, roses red as the blood he had spilled for his country. For the home they would make together they bought - in a little shop on the Rue St. Antoine - dessert plates which had belonged to an unhappy queen.
In Switzerland the blue of Lake Lucerne spread below their high dormer windows. Here they bought fine linens and embroideries. For a song.
In England they lived, very grand indeed, at the Carlton. They dined with friends in Mayfair. They rode in Hyde Park. They found old Sheffield candelabra to light their dinner table through the years that were to come.
Then they came home. To adjust to everyday life and find it anything but prosaic, quite as glamorous in its own way as their honeymoon had been. After Doctor Griffin had left for his office Irene would do her ordering, give instructions for the day that her household might run smoothly. Then she would go to her piano. She would continue to study. That had been agreed upon.
Curiously enough, considering how ambitious and busy Irene previously had been she was content. From time to time offers came to her from producers casting new productions. She had no interest in them.
Then one night she, Doctor Griffin and a party of friends went to see the new Ziegfeld production of "Show Boat." Irene sat through it in a trance. The music bewitched her. It was as if all her life she had been waiting, studying, serving an apprenticeship, that one day she might play a role like Magnolia.
A week or two later, unbelievably enough, the was offered the role of Magnolia in the road company of "Show Boat."
"And that offer really frightened me," Irene said, "Because I couldn't bring myself to give it up."
She went to Doctor Griffin that night when he came home.
"I want you to be happy above all things," he said affectionately. "You've turned down everything else that has been offered you, apparently without a qualm. So now, seeing how strongly you feel about this, I wonder if I have the right to influence you, one way or the other."
"Show Boat" opened in Chicago and, for part of the time, Mrs. Francis D. Griffin became Irene Dunne again.
"And now," Irene told me, "my husband is as enthusiastic about the things I do, over any success I have, as I am. More so, sometimes.
"It isn't pleasant being seperated as often as we are. Neither of us pretends it is. But we are together as much as possible."
FROM Chicago the "Show Boat" company went to Boston. There they closed for the season. On next to the last night Ziegfeld was in the audience. In the second row on the aisle, he sat. To watch all of them and choose those he wanted for the company when it openend again the following September.
There was a tremendous excitement backstage. Some gave better performances than usual that night. Others, too nervous, gave performances below their standard. Irene Dunne never played a more colorful, glamarous, romantic Magnolia in her life.
At the end of the last act, taking her bow, she caught Ziegfeld's eye. He nodded. That was all. But later a note came back, making it final. By all means he wanted her for Magnolia the following autumn.
"And," he added graciously, "I also must thank you for one of the happiest evenings I've ever spent in the theater."
This note, needles to state, if one of Irene's most precious possessions.
After a summer on the golf links and at the shore Irene was more than ready to work again.
"It was," she told me, "while I was playing Magnolia in Baltimore that Hollywood became interested in musical pictures. There were always rumors that scouts from the studios were in the audience. But I never paid much attention to this until the night William LeBaron of RKO came backstage. He had, it appears, had reports on me and had come to see me for himself."
A month later Irene was under contract to RKO. Doctor Griffin had said he could manage for a little while.
Adelaide Dunne who had come our west with Irene, posed with her for the Hollywood reporters.
And Irene wished the serious husband she had left behind in New York might be there too. There was nothing that would not be better with him at her side.
It was several days before she was asked to report at the studios. Had she started to work at once she might not have gotten so miserably home-sick.
During the day, before her mother, she fought back her tears. And exerted herself to seem happy and interested. Even enthusiastic. But there was not pride to forbid her crying herself to sleep. Morning after morning she awoke with wet lashes, exhausted.
When Doctor Griffin didn't telephone she was wretched. When he did call, after he had hung up, it was almost worse. Irene wondered whatever had possessed her to leave him, even to consider motion pictures.
But there she was and by this time her first picture, "Leatherneckers,"[sic] a musical version of "Present Arms," in which she played with Benny Rubin, Louise Fazenda, Lilyan Tashman, Eddie Foy, Jr., and Ken Murray, was under way. When it was over she planned to ask for her release and travel east as fast as the first train would carry her.
However as things developed she did nothing of the kind. "Leatherneckers" turned out to be a very bad picture. And at the same moment the vogue for musical productions, the market having been flooded with too many bad ones, ended.
"What are we going to do with Dunne?" the RKO officials asked one another. "We brought her out to do musicals and we're not making any more of them. But she's under contract."
Under such circumstances Irene couldn't leave. She might have renounced a successful career to go home to her husband but she couldn't return a failure. She is softly spoken and quiet eyed but she has surprising strength, unlimited courage and undying determination.
Another thing. They were testing girls for the role of Sabra Cravat in "Cimarron." And here was a role Irene wanted to play in the very worst way.
The studio executives were horrified the day she asked for this plum part. She quite upset the conference at which, politely and with considerable beating about the bush, they were trying to decide what was to be done with her.
"You've tested practically everyone else in Hollywood for the part of Sabra," she told them. "You've spent a fortune testing people. Why not, at least, give me the same chance your're giving utter strangers, utter outsiders?"
The test, they informed her gravely, would be a difficult one. She must play the three ages. Sabra as a young girl, as a woman, and as a grandmother. But, magnanimously, since their gravity didn't appear to terrify her in the slightest, they agreed to let her try.
She went home jubilant.
"I'm going to play Sabra," she cried, running to Doctor Griffin who was out for a visit. "I'm going to play Sabra."
Then little by little, he got the whole, right story from her. That was Saturday. She was to take her test on the following Monday.
HE saw how intensely she felt about this, how desperately she wante the role. And he wished from the bottom of his devoted heart there was something he could do that would help her towards it.
All day Sunday, Irene worked on the dialogue and the business.
"You go play golf," she implored him. "You love it so. After all, my dear, this is your holiday. You must not spend a day indoors, cooped up with a ranting wife."
But Doctor Griffin only smiled and shook his head. There might be something he could do to help and he was determined to stay and do it. They closed themselves into their room. He sat on the bed, her audience, while she tried a line of a bit of business first this way, then that.
"And," laughs Irene affectionately, "for a man who hadn't wanted his wife to go on with her career, he cooperated with more enthusiasm and intensity and sympathy than you might believe possible."
The next morning Irene was at the studios early. The wardrobe mistress brought her the three sets of clothes that had been made for the Sabra Cravat tests and, over the week-end, altered to fit her.
Irene looke the clothes over carefully. Those planned for Sabra grown older didn't please her at all. They weren't clothes she felt Sabra would wear. The hat especially seemed all wrong.
"Do something for me," she told the wardrove mistress. "There's a woman who works in the sewing-room upstairs, a woman about sixty, well built. She wears just such a hat as I think Sabra would wear. Ask her if I may borrow it for this morning. Tell her I will be very careful of it.
They brought the hat. The woman had been delighte to lend it.
Irene took it from them with a happy little cry. She was like a little girl receiving the very doll she had admired in a shop window. She knew just how she wanted that hat to sit on top of her head.
A fortnight later Doctor Griffin left for New York with a vicarious sense of accomplishment. Irene was going to play Sabr all right. And he felt that sitting on the bed that Sunday, serving as her audience, making suggestions, he had helped her get it. Irene herself was certain he had.
They worked on "Cimarron" for sixteen weeks.
"And," says Irene, "through all those weeks Richard Dix showed me an understanding and cooperation for which I always shall be grateful."
In their trans-continental telephone conversations between midnight and dawning when, for the same toll, they could talk twice as long, Irene and Doctor Griffin planned how she would come to New York when the picture was completed, be there for the premiere. He would give a party for her.
But those happy plans never materialized. When "Cimarron" was completed the RKO officials, aware they had a new brilliant star on their roster, knew well enough what to do with Irene Dunne. Things were very different now. They rushed her into other productions, into "Consolation Marriage" and "The Symphony of Six Million."
After the New York opening, excusing himself from his friends, Doctor Griffin went into a room alone and called Irene across three thousand miles. His voice this night was so deep she could scarcely hear him. That was how she knew how proud he was.
Irene also had to fight for a chance to play in "Back Street." The company executives didn't think she was the type to play the leading character in this story. So again she took a screen test and proved to them, conclusively and for all time, that she wasn't a type put an actress.
Then something happened which made her wonder hos she ever had concerned herself over any of the compartively insignificant worries that had beset her during the last several years. She was preparing to go over to the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios to star for them in "The Secret of Madame Blanche." The next day she was to sit in conference with Adrian about her costumes. She went to bed early. So she would be rested and have a clear mind. Early the following morning her telephone rang.
She wasn't alarmed. She had no idea of the hour. She thought it must be her husband calling. But it wasn't Doctor Griffin on the wire. It was her brother Charles, who was in New York at this time. Doctor Griffin was in the hospital with a burst appendix. They couldn't say exactly how serious it might be. They were operating.
Up and down, up and down the room Irene walked for what seemed to her an eternity. No member of her household could help her. Her husband was over three thousand miles away, in pain, and in danger.
Several hours later, at eight o'clock, she put through a call to the hospital.
"Is he in great pain?" she asked his nurse.
"Well, of course, Mrs. Griffin, you understand in a case like this..." came the noncommital, evasive answer.
"Tell him I've called," she said. "Tell him I'm coming - right away."
At the airport they reported flying conditions were not good.
That night when "The Chief" pulled out of Los Angeles Irene Dunne sat huddled in a drawing-room facing three frightful days and nights.
At Grand Central, Charles Dunne met her. He took her luggage to her hotel that she might go directly to the hospital. In spite of the early hour they permitted her to go to Doctor Griffin immediately.
No one had told him she was coming. He was surprised. When he saw her standing in the doorway he looked unbelieving for a minute and then his serious face broke into a smile.
"He was glad I'd come," Irene explained, "yet upset because I'd had that frightful trip.
"However it was worth that trip just to be there to see for myself that he was out of danger. I had been afraid to believe the last few wires, afraid they were sparing me while I was on the train and there was nothing I could do."
SHE waited at the hospital all day. She sat there beside him even while he dozed. Then at nine o'clock, when hospital lights went out, she went to her hotel.
Next morning she ordered the morning papers sent up with her breakfast tray. To her utter amazement her own face looked ap at her from the front page of a tabloid. "On Town," the picture's title read. Then, underneath, "It is expected Irene Dunne is here to ask for a divorce."
She jumped from her bed, leaving, her breakfast untouched. She must be the one to take Francis Griffin those pages. She hoped he would not credit one word they said. She believed the understanding, the bond between them was too great for him to give such malicious rumors any consideration.
When she reached the hospital there were newspaper men in the corridor. A photographer tried to catch her when she went in.
She went straignt to her husband's room. She had come to comfort him against the wretched, inexcusable injustice of this laughable attack. But in the end he comforted her. He laughed at the ridiculous story that was in the papers.
"Now I'm sure you're a movie star," he told her, a twinkle in his eyes.
Five days later she had to leave him. "The Secret of Madame Blanche" was about to go into production. Adrian had made all her clothes on a model which he had had built to her exact measure.
Doctor Griffin was well on the mend. She was sure of that. When he was able to be up and around there was his work waiting for him. Together they would climb, he in his chosen field, she in her's. There would be interludes in between when they would manage to be together. There would be holidays when he would come to California and they would sail off to Honolulu or stay at home and golf. There would be little stolen trips to New York between productions.
And so it goes ... Since "Madame Blanche," Irene has made "The Silver Cord." Her next will be "Lady Sal." And there will probably be many more.
Unless all signs fail they'll live happily forever after. It isn't so much the number of hours married people spend together when all is said and done. It is rather how close they are during their hours together. Besides, away from the studios, away from work, Irene is first and last Mrs. Francis D. Griffin. And that's the way it must be. That's the way it's been ever since the world began.
And the Dunne girl knows it.
