I Remember Mama is a play by John Van Druten. Based on the memoir Mama's Bank Account by Kathryn Forbes, it focuses on a loving family of Norwegian immigrants living on Steiner Street (identified as Larkin Street in the 1948 film) in San Francisco in the 1910s.
Produced by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, the Broadway production opened on October 19, 1944 at the Music Box Theatre and ran for 713 performances.
The cast included Mady Christians, Oscar Homolka, Joan Tetzel, and Marlon Brando, making his Broadway debut.
The play was adapted for a 1948 feature film written by DeWitt Bodeen and directed by George Stevens.
The film begins with eldest daughter Katrin completing the last lines of her autobiographical novel. As she reminisces about her family life, we flashback to 1910, where the first of a series of vignettes finds Marta Hanson preparing the weekly budget with assistance from her husband Lars, daughters Katrin, Christine and Dagmar, and son Nels, who announces his desire to attend high school. Each family member offers to make a financial sacrifice to contribute to the boy's education.
Soon after, Marta's sister Trina arrives, announces she is marrying undertaker Peter Thorkelson, and implores Marta to break the news to their sisters Sigrid and Jenny. As Trina feared, the two laugh upon hearing the news, but when Marta threatens to reveal embarrassing anecdotes about them, the women agree to accept their sister's decision.
When Jonathan Hyde, the Hansons' educated but impoverished lodger, reads A Tale of Two Cities aloud for the family, all of them, especially aspiring writer Katrin, are deeply moved by the story. Later, the family is visited by Marta's gruff and domineering but soft-hearted Uncle Chris and his common law wife Jessie Brown. When Chris discovers youngest daughter Dagmar is severely ill with mastoiditis, he insists on taking her to the hospital. Because they disapprove of Jessie, Sigrid and Jenny attempt to stop him, but he bullies his way past them with Dagmar and her mother following behind.
Dagmar's operation is a success, but her mother Marta is prohibited from seeing her by the hospital staff. At home, she becomes increasingly distressed about the separation from her child, whom she promised she would see as soon as she awakened, and she returns to the hospital where, disguised as a member of the housekeeping staff, she sneaks into Dagmar's ward and sings a Norwegian lullaby to her.
When a recovered Dagmar returns home, she learns her cat, Uncle Elizabeth, is very ill. Despite Dagmar's belief in her mother's powers, Marta feels helpless to save the wounded cat and sends Nels to buy some chloroform so she can put it to sleep. The following morning she is astonished when Dagmar walks in with a sleepy but very alive and apparently cured cat.
Mr. Hyde moves out, leaving a check for his long overdue rent and his entire collection of classic books. The family's joy at their financial windfall vanishes when they discover their lodger had no bank account and the check has no value. Sigrid and Jenny are furious about the man's deceit, but Marta declares his valuable gift of literature is payment enough.
Katrin brags to Christine that their mother is going to buy her the dresser set she has long admired as a graduation present. Her sister tells her Marta is planning to give her their grandmother's brooch as a gift, so Katrin is surprised when she receives the desired dresser set instead. As she is about to leave to perform in the school's production of The Merchant of Venice, Katrin is informed that her mother traded with the storekeeper her beloved heirloom for the gift Katrin wanted. Distraught by the news, the girl performs badly in the play, and later presents her mother with the brooch after trading back the dresser set. Katrin's father presents her with her first cup of coffee, which she had been told she could drink once she was grown. Before giving it to her, mother adds a healthy amount of cream.
Marta learns Uncle Chris is near death, and she takes Katrin to say goodbye to him at his ranch. He reveals he has no money to leave his niece because he had long been donating most of his income to help poor lame children, and confesses he and Jessie married years ago but kept their union a secret because of Sigrid and Jenny's attitude towards her. After enjoying a final drink with his niece and his wife, Uncle Chris dies.
Katrin is dejected when she receives her tenth literary rejection letter. Determined to bolster her confidence, Marta takes some of her stories to famed author and gourmand Florence Dana Moorhead and convinces her to read them in exchange for her prized meatball recipe. Marta returns home and advises her daughter that Moorhead feels the girl has talent and should write about what she knows best. Marta urges Katrin to write a story about Papa. When the girl's story is accepted for publication, she is overjoyed to be paid $500. After announcing some of the money will go towards the purchase of the winter coat Marta always has wanted, Katrin confesses her story is not about her father but is titled Mama and the Hospital. She begins to read it to her family, and its introduction concludes with the line, "But first and foremost, I remember Mama."
George Stevens originally offered the role of Mama to Greta Garbo, who balked at playing a motherly type. He then cast Irene Dunne, whom he had directed in Penny Serenade in 1941. Although she was 50-years-old, the actress had a youthful appearance and had to be aged with makeup to portray the family matriarch convincingly [1]. Oscar Homolka was the only member of the original Broadway cast to reprise his role for the film. Some scenes filmed on Rhode Island Street, on San Francisco's Potrero Hill. The film premiered as the Easter attraction at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.

Why can improbable Houston Rockets beat the Los Angeles Lakers
Rockets beat Lakers improbable, after the game, "Houston Chronicle" columnist Justin expressed his views the author. In his view, the Rockets win a game no one believed, and now have to face the Rockets have never thought of a question: to win the first game, how to do that ...
No one will give the opportunity to rocket the same token, you do not give any chance of Rockets. There, they can do self-confidence, even if no one around the world believe that they have this capacity. So, when all of us feel that the Rockets defeated the Lakers is a dream, the Rockets stole home in a Lakers victory, they will race at least until Game 5. That is why they have been doing the past two months, they through a variety of factors, including the defense to make up for all the shortcomings, so that their non-stop growth. In this fantasy game, they grow again, and in 7 games wins series 4 games to win the first game victory.
The first factor, that is Yao Ming.
Yao Ming will be very difficult for us to imagine such a confrontational game, he removed in the evening of 28 points and 10 rebounds, but these are not enough to tell you that the great giant.
In his 4 minutes 54 seconds of injury time, and holding their own fell to the ground right knee pain. He was lifting team from the pitch and walked the aisle leading to the locker room. While support staff help Yao Ming thought the end of today's game, they need to in the locker room after reading the game, Yao Ming has been shaking his head. He refused to return to the locker room, he did not want to check, he requested to return to the stadium. He told the doctor Jones, he can continue to go back and play. He tried some activities to the activities of the knee, and squatting, and then held on to the walls of the activities of the knee a bit, Jones agreed. Lens is the next giant in the golf course there, he found a rocket team rhythm and momentum, this is a great player can do the greatest thing.
The second factor, that is Ron Artest.
When he played on with the special head Mohicans. In this particular hairstyle, he will even have a sign of the rocket used to to express their own courage and strength. All start from the beginning, Artest was done, he had this evening a 21 points and 7 assists. Brooks also the rest of his so I am pleased to see growth in his contribution to today's race by 19 points. In addition, Shane Battier to prevent the Bryant today, as Laurie has excellent performance.
In fact, the rocket's performance in this game, and the previous confrontation with the Lakers the same, they lead the previous section, until the beginning of an outbreak of Bryant. They were leading in the third quarter by 9 points, but all of a sudden the Lakers destroyed. Adelman told the Houston players had they been in the regular season the Lakers swept, reason for this is that any relaxation in the last minute, so Bryant has been scoring. The same is true in this game, and Yao Ming had Lori mistakes, and then made Gasol led the Lakers leading, 74 to 73.
The rocket is not only backward, Artest spent their first three-point play to lead the Rockets back to the body, and then Brooks hit in a critical distance. Bryant did not hit the next jump, Brooks completed a little luck of the shot, leading the Rockets 85-77. Then the injured Yao Ming was lost so the rocket feeling, but he returned after a key vote in the 2 minutes and help continues to lead the Rockets. Bryant then continue, while Artest and Yao Ming can score a row. At this time, the Lakers only through free throws to extend the life of the game.
There is no doubt that the outcome of this series will be the hearts of the world the results of all the rocket be eliminated, but the Rockets took home at least a Lakers victory, this is a great encouragement. The question now is how to use this rocket hard-won victory, but this is a sweet enough.

The film "Nanjing Massacre: the city of life and death ": Devoid of humanity and salvation
The day before yesterday evening, I watched the film Luchuan Nanjing Massacre: the city of life and death. I watch movies in the process, the greatest feelings is to express all the film in shock humanity. Nanjing Massacre: the city of life and death, let me to feel it from another perspective, to review more than 70 years ago this catastrophe. I did want to say much, but many people read the comments online, it was found that many others have been said before, so simple that their true feelings under it.
Luchuan for Nanjing Massacre: the city of life and death into the soul and the core is the human nature - on human nature and human nature devoid of light. Japanese soldiers who, as the massacre of human decadence, and a group of Chinese people in the disaster before the flash light of human nature, which was shocking for us. Nanjing Massacre: the city of life and death is not a documentary, nor is it a simple repetition of the theme of the film, the massacre is not the subject of the film and the core. Therefore, there may be some Angry Youth will be very angry, therefore, that the Luchuan is "traitor."
I would like to say that the Nanjing Massacre is not just reserved for our racial hatred, more should be reminded to reflect on our human nature, the yearning for peace. Nanjing Massacre is a disaster in human history, only know the day condemned the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese is far from sufficient. We need to understand why China's defeat, China's capital will be occupied by the Japanese. We also need to reflect on why Chinese people like to let the Japanese slaughter of sheep, and very little fire moths feat.
Nanjing Massacre: the city of life and death has left me with a few of the most impressive scenes is: Nanjing Ming City Wall in the Japanese army collapsed under heavy gunfire; remnant, China has become a prisoner after being allowed to disarm the Japanese soldiers slaughtered; Sun Yat-sen pull down the statue of the Japanese; Mr. Rabe agreed to the Japanese army forced women to 100 women in exchange for food and coal when the sound of weeping and helpless; Jiang Yan Jiang Xiangjun prostitutes as a show of hands said, "Mr. Rabe I am willing. "duty-bound at the time; the Japanese leader on the Japanese comfort women Kadokawa feelings Yuriko; Fan Rabe plays Secretary - Mr. Tang told before dying whispered to the Japanese," my wife is pregnant again "When that strange smile; high round of ginger as a teacher in the" disguised "as a" wife "to save those cowardly" husband "was the Japanese military to see through to the post-Kadokawa said a low voice" Shoot me "when the fearless, calm eyes; the Japanese worship of fallen soldiers rumbling drum ceremony ... ...
In the movie Nanjing Massacre: the city of life and death, we do not see a complete picture of the Holocaust, can not see too much ethnic hatred, but also do not see an effective resistance to the Chinese people, but it is so we can see that a, a fresh faces as well as the human face behind - whether noble or humble, whether it is selfish or expense, whether it is inhuman, or the salvation of humanity, what we see is a spiritual dimension behind the Nanjing Massacre and the reflection - Sometimes, it may appear more than simply brutal massacres, rape, looting more powerful because it touched the soul of each person.

United States: confirmed cases rose to 50. Of which: 28 cases from New York, 13 cases from California, from Texas, six cases, two cases from Kansas, 1 from Ohio.
(Note: The figures include the following confirmed or suspected cases)
Canada: 6. Windsor is a province in patients with central areas of a private high school students, recently went to Mexico Study Tour
Costa Rica: 17

27 World Health Organization held an emergency meeting of experts in advance, it was decided to swine flu alert level to Phase 4.
The Director-General Margaret Chan said in a statement to that caused by Stage 4 the possibility of large-scale epidemic, but will definitely does not mean that large-scale epidemic.
At present, China has not yet been found in cases of human infection with swine influenza, but also not detected in pigs similar to the virus. Growing areas, do not rule out the possibility that China may be imported.

Swine flu symptoms: Diagnosis, Treatment and Prevention
Pig group of flu will appear on the move with pig, such as introducing breeding pig, exhibition, introduction to pig farm etc. Since many apparent infection outbreak of pig transferred to at-risk group has close relationship. Outbreak is often explosive, the group of all pig almost at the same time. However, if the observation carefully, cattle in the individual pig often found of 2 ~ 5 days before the onset had flu-like symptoms.
The main way that is passed through the nose pharynx pig pig and direct transmission way. In the interim, acute infection of nasal secretion fever exists within a virus, to provide abundant animal susceptibility to infection. In the experiment condition, the virus to the nostrils or inhaled droplets of small particles, pigs are very easy aerosol infected. Contact transmission, easy in pigs, airborne may cause large explosive popularity, especially in immunity weaker pigs, such as in the 1970s ~ in France and Belgium in the 1980s. France in 1981, December outbreaks in September 1982 to have 4 million pigs were infected.
Once flu appeared in the breeding herd pig breeding herd or not entirely cleared out the conditions, the virus will likely continuous cycle existence. In this case, the young piglet in maternal antibody is infected after dies. However, most example is a flu virus outbreak in after from pigs. According to the virus in the popular process of specific areas, for a period of time (such as a few months to years), in the breeding herd or negative serology and outbreaks of fattening. Influenza prevalence and distribution and popular subtypes, in different areas of the world, in the same row of different national or regional differences exist in a state. In recent years popular a kind of speculation that exist in SI popular break asymptomatic poisoned provide sivs survival. On the other hand SI perennial phenomenon of in the world, the sivs may be smoothly cycle. Therefore there is no definite material can support or is the presence of pigs in the long-term real poisoned.
In popular areas, many farms to avoid the repeated exposure sivs is unlikely, so most of the pig diets are produced by the immune sows, obtained by beginning dump maternal antibody. Colostrum antibody provides protection can avoid disease, but cannot avoid infection. The virus circulating in the continuous pigs, although young pigs are maternal antibody, but still be infected. In a whole into full of commercial pig group was obsered in typical infection mode. Usually at 9 ~ 12 weeks into the sutai pigs, from many of the arena, after some infected opportunity is very high. As for commercial fatten pigs, found in the arena serological survey after weeks of 17/17 H1N1 virus infection by, 9/17 group was H3N2 virus infection. Some H3N2 negative in fattening period is infected. From this and other studies that serological H1N1 and H3N2 flu virus, pig respiratory coronavirus (PRCV) and pig breeding respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) of intercurrent infection in Europe intensive production system is common.
Public health
The 1980 from a pig exhibition of young people to work, 1984 H1N1 strains isolated from the pig virus strains, the pig is H1N1 in a child's deadly infections disease later. Lots of epidemiological survey shows that the virus can from animals. A 32-year-old woman, visited the exhibition after livestock deaths, primary viral pneumonia in her separation to the strains of the virus, H1N1 pig exhibition has a existence. A 27-year-old breeder died in acute respiratory distress syndrome, on his separation to H1N1 virus. Recent reports (1997), the staff of the two experimental infection, because of the disease and infection H1N1 pigs. In the Netherlands, from children to two strains separated from pig viruses, may H3N2.
Sivs cause and pig contact person deadly respiratory diseases, this is influenza virus has the potential of human infection, clear signal after new big pig will pass to epidemic strain. Because people with pig in occupational and contingency between the situation of several day, whether the virus interactions, SI zoonosis-borne with potentially dangerous must know clearly and attention.
Symptoms,
The classic SI is a group. Now see signs of illness and the description of the basic age 20. During the incubation period of 1 ~ 3 days after the onset is sudden, pigs, while most of performance, anorexia, lie huddle closer, huddled together. Some pigs, difficulty breathing, mouth muscle spasm, abdominal breathing.
In response to the swine flu outbreak that has left dozens dead in Mexico and spread to other countries, officials here launched a campaign to inform the public on virus symptoms, prevention and treatment.
The following information was provided by the Mexican Ministry of Health.
SYMPTOMS: Sudden fever above 38 degrees (100.4 degrees Fahrenheit), cough, headache, aching joints, nasal congestion and general fatigue.
DIAGNOSIS: Clinical examination of secretions from the nose and mouth in the first 24-72 hours after presenting symptoms, and a study of blood samples to detect existence of influenza virus.
TREATMENT: In confirmed cases, Mexican authorities have provided patients with flu drugs Seltamivir or Zanamivir under strict medical supervision, and warn against side effects in misuse.
The Mexican government said that the antiviral drugs would only be administered if infection is confirmed.
Authorities have reportedly some million doses on hand, although local media warn that pharmacies have run out of treatments.
PREVENTATIVE MEASURES: Wear a mask. Do not greet someone with a kiss or handshake; do not share food, cutlery or glasses. Ventilate homes and offices, keep clean common items such as telephones.
International officials are on alert and the CDC is diligently updating the general public, clinicians and media outlets of a rapidly emerging Swine flu outbreak.
Multiple new cases of a new strain of Swine flu (Swine Influenza A, H1N1) have been reported in Mexico and in the United States. Multiple deaths have been reported to the World Health Organization, currently assessing the accuracy of these reports.
Historically, the CDC receives approximately one report of Swine flu case per 1 - 2 years in the United States but over the past four years, these numbers have tripled. Reports are updated daily at on the numbers the CDC is receiving including both national and international cases.
International officials are on alert and airports have begun to screen arriving passengers. Officials are surveying arriving passengers for any viral signs and symptoms. One airport in Chiba, Japan (Narita) is screening passengers arriving from Mexico utilizing thermographic imaging for increases in body temperature.
Transmission of Swine Flu (How is Swine Flu spread?)
As with other flu like illnesses, Swine flu is spread as follows:
Coughing
* Sneezing
* Kissing
* Touching infected objects
* Touching nose, mouth and/or eyes with infected hands
Swine Flu Symptoms
Symptoms of Swine flu may including all or some of the following:
Fever
* Muscle aches
* Lethargy
* Coughing
* Headache
* Sore throat
* Runny nose
* Nausea
* Vomiting
* Diarrhea
* Lack of appetite
Complications Of Swine Flu And Higher Risk Individuals
Those at higher risk include those with the following:
* Age of 65 years or older
* Chronic health problems (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease)
* Pregnant women
* Young children
Complications (for all patients but especially for those at higher risk) can include:
* Pneumonia
* Bronchitis
* Sinus infections
* Ear infections
* Death
Diagnosis And Treatment Of Swine Flu
1. A respiratory sample collected within the first five days of illness will be collected. The sample is sent to the CDC for laboratory analysis and confirmation.At this time the CDC is recommending the use of oseltamivir (Tamiflu) or zanamivir (Relenza) for treatment and/or prevention of Swine flu.
Prevention of Swine Flu
Covering nose and mouth with a tissue upon coughing and sneezing followed by proper disposal of the tissue.
* Avoiding contact with ill persons.
* Avoiding the urge to touch nose, mouth and eyes in general.
* Staying home form work and/or school upon onset and for the duration of symptoms.
* Assuring adequate and thorough handwashing and use of alcohol based hand cleansers (in the absence of proper handwashing facilities).
* Providing tissues in common areas of homes, common and public areas.
* Encouraging pursuit of medical evaluation at earliest onset of symptoms.
* Use of masks to those who are exhibiting symptoms or who are ill.
* Maintenance of a 3 to 6 foot perimeter around a coughing patient.
Calm analysis coupled with accurate and proper public education is the key to identifying, treating and minimizing a worldwide outbreak.

Dateline NBC: You Might Be Rich
A local man is featured on national television after the network tracks him down to tell him he's inherited a lot of money!
Sound like a dream come true?
For 55-year-old Madison resident Nick, who lives alone and suffers from Parkinson's disease, NBC's phone call was too good to be true!
"We call our series 'You Might Be Rich,' and what we do is we find people who don't know they have money coming to them and return it," explains Dateline NBC producer Rob Buchanan, "It's a big surprise!"
"What makes Nick's case really interesting is that it's a big dollar amount and it's been sitting with the state for a bunch of years," he adds.
But every time Buchanan called Nick, Nick hung up on him.
He was skeptical.
So Dateline enlisted my help.
After numerous phone calls and visits, Nick agreed to the Dateline interview, and crews flew to Madison to film the big reveal.
"It's not an uncommon reaction for someone to be a little skeptical," says reporter Matt Bean as he meets Nick for the first time, "But I hope with all the lights, the cameras, Leigh is here, have we been able to convince you that we're legit?"
Nick responds, "Yes, you are very legit. You're lucky you had Leigh!"
Bean continues, "We've got a little surprise for you Nick!"
Nick quickly responds with a smile, "I think I'm getting spoiled here!"
Then a group of singers walks into the room.
Bean says, "Nick you're probably wondering what all these people are doing here, why we're making such a fuss right now."
Nick has had a hard life. He lost him mother in 1997 and was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in 2005. But today, he had something to celebrate!
"Well, Nick, your mom left something behind for you that I think is really going to change your life!" Bean continues, "But before I tell you exactly what that is, do you have any idea what it could be? What your mom left behind for you?"
Nick responds with a mischievous smile, "A new hairline?"
The room erupts in laughter.
No, it wasn't a new hairline!
But, you'll have to watch Dateline this Sunday at 6 p.m. to find out how much money Nick's mom left for him.
It's not our decision -- so please don't email us!
NBC won't let us say what he got until their broadcast on Sunday.
So make sure to watch Dateline this Sunday night at six!
