A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....11-14-06....Hollywood's Finest Days

[SheLion]

I'm fine, Thanks! How are you doing today? Another rainy day here. Good excuse to be on computer. LOL

I am doing good, thanks!

And St. John River up here is under a flood watch.  Supposed to have 11 more inches of water by tonight.  Thank God I don't live near it, but it is raining non-stop up here.  But it's in the 50's, so thank God, it isn't snow!!!

[Mrs.Nooseman]

LOL.

You are funny.:)

[GodBlessUSA]

It is fun isn't it. I could have continued photos on the main post forever. LOL :)

Freedom, I like the sound of the word.

[Mrs.Nooseman]

So do I.

To bad he passed on.If he was still alive I would say John Wayne for President.:)

[GodBlessUSA]

This is definitely a keeper. So many of them are. They sure knew how to present, true romance. :)

[GodBlessUSA]

Unfortunate for us Hollywood spiraled down to mostly bottom feeders. LOL Many were real men of honor. They were so much more attractive and masculine too. So many these days are wimpy guys. LOL!

Another oldie but goodie:

[ConorMacNessa]

I'm a sucker for costume dramas:

Robert Taylor and Joan Fontaine in "Ivanhoe"

[GodBlessUSA]

Terrific! I love Joan Fountaine.

I especially enjoyed watching this man's films. :) Neat, he made an appearance in each one. Just crossing a street or eating in the background. Clever man, Alfred Hitchcock

[GodBlessUSA]

Hitchcock always had the best of cast too. I think I'll do a thread on him next. LOL :)

[MEG33]

I see it.

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Yup that is another good movie.

[DollyCali]

meg, this is really bizarre. I couldn't see letting except to hi light. rebooted a couple times, ran spyware check, ran virus, rebooted. NO letters still.

this is all in Molli Firefox

Opened the thread in Explorer & voila.. letters are there.

Some glitch w/ mozilla. I intend to do some heavy duty work on computer in next few weeks & will reinstall mozilla. I just don't want to loose my favorites..

Okay, gotta run. The mystery isn't solved but at least I can read the thread!

[ConorMacNessa]

I have to go run errands for a while - will bbl.

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Talk to you when you get back.

[GodBlessUSA]

I do too. See you later Conor. Looking forward to more photos from you. :)

Dirty movies: why today's Hollywood is a polluter (no triple-entendre intended)

Special effects explosions and idling vehicles are among the reasons for Hollywood's newly-discovered role as an air polluter, a university study published today said.
University of California research revealed the film and TV industry makes a larger contribution to air pollution in the Los Angeles region than almost all the five other sectors studied.

The industry creates more pollution than either aerospace manufacturing or hotels, the study found, with only petroleum manufacturing giving off more emissions.

"People talk of 'the industry', but we don't think of them as an industry," Mary Nichols, who heads the university's environment institute, said. "We think of the creative side, the movie, the people, the actors - we don't think of what it takes to produce the product."

Researchers considered the emissions created both directly and indirectly by filming, looking at both the pollution caused by a diesel generator used to power a film set and the emissions created by a power plant providing electricity to a studio lot....
