In this chapter, readers are again given an intimate look at Barbara’s romantic life. Most notably, her ill-fated affair with openly homosexual actor William Haines and her whirlwind marriage to action star Virgil Ashley (“Jack”) Daugherty—coming on the heels of her split from Haines—are expounded. The chapter then follows Barbara as she attempts to settle into married life and is implicated in two scandals: one involving her ex-husband Philip Ainsworth and the other involving an allegation of adulterous conduct. Film contracts Arthur Sawyer has been negotiating on her behalf are then discussed, mainly insofar as they are threatened by a third widely broadcasted incident. The chapter concludes with the disclosure of one contract that survives the hubbub: Barbara’s most extraordinary opportunity yet.

In their courtship and marriage, the Brownings did not contend for that “mastery” the wife of Bath and other traditional sources of marital wisdom cite as the usual object of competition between the sexes. Instead they struggled over the privilege of admiring and serving the other. Robert Browning won that competition, his victory both symptom and cause of a poetic silence that lasted throughout most of his married life. An important exception to his prolonged inactivity is Men and Women, Browning's successful attempt at bringing his innovative style to full, sustained articulation. In order to achieve the kind of psychological, as well as intellectual, independence that would enable him to speak “in [his] true person” (“One Word More,” line 137), however, the poet needed to alter the terms of his relationship with his wife, who was both the emotional center of his life and a more successful, more popular poet. Browning achieved this separation in Men and Women, particularly in “One Word More.”

The existence of stepchild in a household is often the source of the household disharmony between husband and wife. It is common for this disharmony to lead to divorce.On the other hand, the stepchild often receives discriminatory and even cruel treatment. By using the descriptive analysis method, the author collected the data on the life of the Prophet -peace and blessings of Allah be upon him- with his stepchildren.Then the data were analysed, in order to reveal his practical and applicabletips from living with the stepchildren. The author madethe Prophet life with his stepchildren the object of research, asthe Prophet is a role model for mankind in every aspect of life. He had of course taught a set of applicable and effective tips in living a married life with his stepchildren. Moreover, he married ten widowed women who all had children from their previous marriage. From analysing these data, the author found at least six practical tips that the Prophet exemplified so that he succeeded in interacting with all of his stepchildren.From this research, the author concluded that one of the solutions to the success of the Prophet -peace and blessings of Allah be upon him-in interacting with his stepchildren is because he positioned them as one of the keys to the Prophet’s marriage with their mothers and as one of the keys to happiness in the household. Likewise, the Prophet never perceived his stepchildren as a threat to the peace of his household.

Although accounting has an important role in married life, it turns out there are many millennials who have never delved into the beauty of the ocean of marriage but are also interested in studying accounting and its branches. It is not even taboo nowadays to consider accounting knowledge or financial management capabilities possessed by a potential partner as one of the criteria besides the other criteria that are dreamed of. Therefore, the author wanted to examine how the meaning of accounting in building domestic life. Researchers used a phenomenological approach in the search for meaning both explicit and implied.

Manu Bhandari is a socialist writer of the post-independence era. His writings have the unique ability to catch macro and subtle changes coming in the society on the right surface. The effect of changes is always double - external and internal. One influence crushes a person from inside, and the other society gives equal support in making life hollow. The writer has raised the problems of married life on a double level, in her story she has depicted the subtle process of changing the relationship between the male-female traditional macro relationship. Manu Bhandari considers woman to be indispensable with the man in life, but she is not blind to her husband nor should she carry out the work of a housewife, only a machine. She also rivals her husband in political life to fulfill her principles, ideals and even marries or remarries when she feels alienated from her husband. Manu Bhandari creates various forms of woman in her story with full ease and seriousness to her modern woman, not as a woman draped by traditions, carrying the burden of slavery and slavery. मन्नू भंडारी स्वातंत्रोत्तर काल की समाजधर्मी लेखिका हैं। समाज में आने वाले स्थूल और सूक्ष्म परिवर्तनों को सही धरातल पर पकड़ने की अपूर्व क्षमता उनकी लेखनी में है। परिवर्तनों का प्रभाव सदा ही दोहरा होता है - बाह्य और आतंरिक। एक प्रभाव व्यक्ति को अंदर से कुरेदता है तो दूसरा समाज जीवन को खोखला बना देने में बराबर सहयोग पहुँचाता है। लेखिका ने दांपत्य-जीवन की समस्याओं को दोहरे स्तर पर उठाया है, उन्होंने अपनी कहानी में नारी-पुरुष परंपरागत स्थूल संबंध में बदलते संबंध की सूक्ष्म प्रक्रिया का चित्रण किया है। मन्नू भंडारी नारी जीवन में पुरुष के साथ को अनिवार्य मानती है लेकिन वह पति की अंधनुगामी नहीं है और न ही गृहिणी के दायित्व का निर्वाह करने वाली काम चलाऊ, मशीन मात्र। अपने सिद्धांतों, आदर्शों की पूर्ति के लिए वे राजनीतिक जीवन में भी पति की प्रतिद्वंदिता करती है और पति से अलगाव महसूस होने पर विवाह-विच्छेद या पुनर्विवाह भी करती है। मन्नू भंडारी अपनी कहानी में नारी के विविध स्वरूपों को रचकर उसके आधुनिक नारी को पूरी सहजता और संजीदगी के साथ उकेरती है, न की परंपराओं से दबी, कुचली और गुलामी का भार ढोती हुई नारी के रूप में।

Marriage due to premarital pregnancy become increasingly more common in Indonesia, although the behaviour is still deemed as inappropriate by the society and tend to be negatively stigmatized. This might affect the marriage satisfaction which could harm the overall quality of the marriage. The purpose of this study was to determine marital satisfaction on youth with premarital pregnancy. Participants in this study were nine young women who were married due to premarital pregnancy and residing in Kupang City. Data was collected using interviews and analysed with thematic analysis approach that revealed three main themes. The results showed that marital satisfaction varied in participants, in which six participants were more satisfied and enjoyed their current married life, while the other three participants were not satisfied due to dissatisfaction with aspects of equality of roles in household, parenting and sexual life. Implications from this results were discussed further in the article.

Human relationships are enormously complex in nature. God created human and on the other hand human created complexity. Due to different thought process and mentality conflict and problems arise and how to manage those problems can have an impact on the relationship. This complexities of human relationship is beautifully dealt by Shashi Deshpande in her novel ‘A Matter of Time’. In most of her novels, she deals with problems related to married life. This paper focuses the complexities of human relationship in Shashi Deshpande’s novel A Matter of Time. In the novel, Deshpande beautifully portrayed the traumas, difficulties and sufferings faced by women in the Indian society.

Stromatoporoids are the principal framebuilding organisms in the patch reef that is part of the reservoir of the Normandville field. The reef is 10 m thick and 1.5 km2in area and demonstrates that stromatoporoids retained their ability to build reefal edifices into Famennian time despite the biotic crisis at the close of Frasnian time. The fauna is dominated by labechiids but includes three non-labechiid species. The most abundant species isStylostroma sinense(Dong) butLabechia palliseriStearn is also common. Both these species are highly variable and are described in terms of multiple phases that occur in a single skeleton. The other species described areClathrostromacf.C. jukkenseYavorsky,Gerronostromasp. (a columnar species), andStromatoporasp. The fauna belongs in Famennian/Strunian assemblage 2 as defined by Stearn et al. (1988).

(Ed. note:Encouraged by the success of the more informal approach in Christy's presentation, we tried an even more extreme experiment in this session, I-D. In essence, Kraft held the floor continuously all morning, and for the hour and a half afternoon session, serving as a combined Summary-Introductory speaker and a marathon-moderator of a running discussion on the line spectrum of cepheids. There was almost continuous interruption of his presentation; and most points raised from the floor were followed through in detail, no matter how digressive to the main presentation. This approach turned out to be much too extreme. It is wearing on the speaker, and the other members of the symposium feel more like an audience and less like participants in a dissective discussion. Because Kraft presented a compendious collection of empirical information, and, based on it, an exceedingly novel series of suggestions on the cepheid problem, these defects were probably aggravated by the first and alleviated by the second. I am much indebted to Kraft for working with me on a preliminary editing, to try to delete the side-excursions and to retain coherence about the main points. As usual, however, all responsibility for defects in final editing is wholly my own.)

Pecker:The topic to be considered today is the continuous spectrum of certain stars, whose variability we attribute to a pulsation of some part of their structure. Obviously, this continuous spectrum provides a test of the pulsation theory to the extent that the continuum is completely and accurately observed and that we can analyse it to infer the structure of the star producing it. The continuum is one of the two possible spectral observations; the other is the line spectrum. It is obvious that from studies of the continuum alone, we obtain no direct information on the velocity fields in the star. We obtain information only on the thermodynamic structure of the photospheric layers of these stars–the photospheric layers being defined as those from which the observed continuum directly arises. So the problems arising in a study of the continuum are of two general kinds: completeness of observation, and adequacy of diagnostic interpretation. I will make a few comments on these, then turn the meeting over to Oke and Whitney.
