American actor George O'Brien (1899-1985) was a muscular, barrel-chested, yet sensitively talented leading man of classic silent films, like John Ford's The Iron Horse (1924) and F. W. Murnau's Sunrise (1927). He became a different kind of star as a cowboy in B-Westerns during the sound era.
George O'Brien was born in San Francisco, California, in 1899. He was the oldest son of Daniel J. and Margaret L. (née Donahue) O'Brien. O'Brien's father later became the Chief of Police for the City of San Francisco and ordered the arrest of Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle in September 1921 at the scandalous Labor Day party held by Arbuckle. After his retirement from that office, Dan was the Director of Penology for the State of California. In 1917, George enlisted in the United States Navy to fight in World War I, serving on a submarine chaser. He volunteered to act as a stretcher-bearer for wounded Marines and was decorated for bravery. After the war, O'Brien became Light-Heavyweight boxing champion of the Pacific Fleet. O'Brien came to Hollywood in his early twenties hoping to become a cameraman and worked as an assistant cameraman for a while, for both Tom Mix and Buck Jones. He began his acting career in bit parts and as a stuntman. One of his earliest roles was in the drama Moran of the Lady Letty (George Melford, 1922), most notable for starring Rudolph Valentino. In 1924, O'Brien received his first starring role in the drama The Man Who Came Back (Emmett J. Flynn, 1924) opposite the English actress Dorothy Mackaill. That same year he was chosen by the famed film director John Ford to star in The Iron Horse (1924) opposite Madge Bellamy. The film was an immense success at the box-office and O'Brien made nine more films for Ford. The athletic O'Brien was truly Hollywood's first perfect male physique. In 1927, he starred in the F. W. Murnau's Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927) opposite Janet Gaynor, which won three major Academy Awards and remains his most famous film. He also played the lead in the New York City epic East Side, West Side (Allan Dwan, 1927) opposite Virginia Valli. O'Brien often starred in action and adventure roles alongside such popular actresses of the era as Alma Rubens, Anita Stewart, Dolores Costello, Madge Bellamy, Olive Borden (with whom he was linked romantically during the 1920s), and Janet Gaynor. With the advent of sound, his popularity was sliding. Tony Fontana at IMDb: "With his rugged looks and physical size, he was soon a Western Cowboy Star. He was in some of the best stories ever written, Riders of the Purple Sage (Hamilton MacFadden, 1931), and in some of the worst." So, throughout the 1930s, O'Brien was a consistent Top Ten box-office draw appearing in scores of Westerns, often atop his horse named Mike. He would appear in a few films outside the horse set, such as Ever Since Eve (George Marshall, 1934) with Mary Brian, but those roles would be few.
During World War II, George O'Brien re-enlisted in the United States Navy, where he served as a beachmaster in the Pacific and was decorated several times. He left service with the rank of commander. He later joined the United States Naval Reserve and retired with the rank of captain in 1962, having four times been recommended for the rank of admiral. Following his service in World War II, O'Brien would occasionally take featured parts in films directed by his old friend and mentor John Ford, including Fort Apache (1948), starring John Wayne and Henry Fonda, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949), and Cheyenne Autumn (1964), starring Richard Widmark and Carroll Baker. O'Brien's last leading role was in Gold Raiders (Edward Bernds, 1951), with top-billed O'Brien handling the action and the Three Stooges (Shemp Howard, Larry Fine, and Moe Howard) doing comedy routines in a feature film more or less evenly dividing screen time between O'Brien and the Stooges. While serving in the Naval Reserve, O'Brien took on a project for the Department of Defense as part of President Eisenhower's "People to People" program. He was project officer for a series of orientation films on three Asian countries. One of these films, on Korea, was directed by his old friend, John Ford. The other two countries covered were Formosa (Taiwan) and the Philippines. In the 1920s, O'Brien dated actress Olive Borden for many years, and most thought they would marry. For some reason (some say his family did not approve of Olive) they ended their relationship and he eventually married actress Marguerite Churchill in 1933. Their first child, Brian, died 10 days after his birth. Daughter Orin O'Brien became a double bassist for the New York Philharmonic. Their youngest child Darcy O'Brien was a successful writer and college professor. George and Marguerite divorced in 1948. O'Brien suffered a stroke in 1981 and was bedridden the last four years of his life. He died in 1985 in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. He was 86. For his contribution to the motion picture industry, Brien was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6201 Hollywood Blvd., in Los Angeles, California.

Mittens was perched on top of a pile of reusable grocery shopping bags, on the kitchen barstool. I couldn't help thinking of the story about the sensitive Princess who ran away and stopped to spend the night at a castle.
The Queen and mother of the handsome Prince tested her claim to Princess-ness by placing a pea under her mattress. Our Princess could not sleep and complained about the lump, so they added another mattress, and kept on doing it until it was a tower of mattresses. She could still detect the presence of the pea, which showed what a real princess she was.
Thought I would jump back to March of this year with a shot from Florida.
Godwits use their long sensitive bills to probe the shallows looking for food. This one has captured some kind of marine worm and it's just about down the hatch... Fort DeSoto, FL March 2016
this was right after i said, "no! don't eat anymore!""
poor girl would've eaten the entire container of icing!
She usually sits with one leg up, but she decided that the texture of the wood chips warranted more extreme measures. I'm amazed she didn't fall over backwards.
A new German Panzerkampfwagen V "Panther" Ausf.G at the Truppenübungsplatz(Troops training ground) after being put through testing and is now ready to be handed over to SS-Panzer-Regiment 1 of 1. SS-PanzerDivision. (Grafenwöhr, Germany, Oct 1944)
Pictured is one of the initial 140 Panthers completed in September of 1944 to leave the factory with the new "Gummigedämpften Stahllaufrollen" (Rubber-cushioned Steel-rollers). One of the advantages of the steel road wheels was that they were more durable, the rubber was 'protected' from wear within the hub and they could support a greater weight. The first "Ausführung G or Ausf.G" (Execution G) batch leaving the factory were still fitted with the early Ausf.A gun-mantlet until the stock was used, with the improved Ausf.G mantlets being fitted later. To standardize and have more consistent camouflage, an order was issued in August of 1944 that all new tanks were to be painted at the factory. 'Dunkelgrün' (Dark-green) became the base coat in late 1944.
A gas protection package was installed on some late war vehicles. The Panther's Dräger 'LOST' filter system was developed at Henschel’s 'Panzerversuchsstation 96' (Armour testing station 96) near Haustenbeck using the facilities 'Gashalle'. The gas protection system consisted of 'LOST-Erkennungstafeln' (Mustard gas identification boards) situated around the top of the turret within the commander's view. The 'LOST' 'Potential of Hydrogen'(pH)-sensitive boards would change colour alerting the commander that poison gas has been detected. The crew would then be alerted, and gas masks would be worn connected to the Dräger system.
This Panther would be assigned the Nr. "231" for Zugführer (Platoon leader) 'SS-Untersturmführer' (2nd Lieutenant) Helmuth Koch of SS-Panzer-Regiment 1. Attached to 'Kampfgruppe' (Battle-group) Peiper during the 'Battle of the Bulge', Panther Nr.231 would be knocked-out in combat 19-20 December 1944 at the Belgium village of Stoumont while fighting the American 119th Infantry Regiment and the 740th Tank Battalion. Kampfgruppe Peiper retreated from Stoumont on the 21st of December after meeting strong American resistance, falling back to La Gleize where the Kampfgruppe was eventually surrounded and forced to break out on foot.

Okay, I can't tell you how much I love this girl! She was my favorite character from the cartoon. I also loved how her character was not a stereotype either. She had a little sass, but she was sensitive, smart, and nurturing. Additionally, she was multitalented. She designed fashions for the group, played the drums, and played the guitar. Plus, she was the only sista who could rock a purple afro like no other. I loved Integrity's take on her, but once I fixed her original poodle Rick James hairdo into a proper afro, I was beyond thrilled with how she looked. Even though I have many a Jem doll, Shana is definitely the standout of my collection.
Sensitive people are strange...you make them happy with little, and make sad with nothing ♥
