Welcome, Tait students, to the 1927 school year. For orientation, remember guys are called sheiks. Girls are shebas. And anything not the cat's meow must certainly be the bee's knees. Now go out there and give everything the old college try! With boundless enthusiasm and enough jive to meld flapper giddiness with '40s swing, 1947's Good News the feature directing debut of Charles Walters (Easter Parade, The Unsinkable Molly Brown) and screenwriting debut of Betty Comden and Adolph Green (Singin' in the Rain, The Band Wagon) is one of the best of the lighthearted rah-rah collegiate musicals (Pauline Kael, The New Yorker). Peter Lawford (as campus football hero) and June Allyson (she's the brainiac who tutors him) lead a high-spirited cast that includes Mel Torme and Broadway's Joan McCracken. And The Varsity Drag and Best Song Oscar nominee Pass That Peace Pipe stand out among numbers that are all zip and joy. And the bee's knees. Year: 1947 Director: Charles Walters Starring: Peter Lawford, June Allyson, Patricia Marshall, Joan McCracken, Ray McDonald, Mel Torme

Imagine devoting your life to the exploration of a region of the world so formidable, so intimidating that few people ever visit it. Imagine months of travel in frigid, incapacitating temperatures capable of taking your limbs. Imagine seeing only vast expanses of ice for miles. Now imagine parts of this region no longer exist.
This isn t your imagination. This is the reality of world-renowned polar explorer Will Steger.
While we debate the validity of global warming, Steger has carved out an uncommon perspective about this phenomenon one that is more than 40 years in the making. A legend at age 63, Steger s achievements place him among the best in exploration alongside Jacques Cousteau, Charles Lindberg, Amelia Earhart and Robert Peary as he has completed some of the most significant polar expeditions in history:
the first person to reach the North Pole via dogsled without resupply
a traverse of Greenland that remains the longest unsupported dogsled expedition in history
the first dogsled traverse of Antarctica
the first dogsled traverse of the Arctic Ocean in one season
Steger has received countless awards and distinctions throughout the years but he knows his Arctic achievements are null unless he can rally the next generation of leaders to embrace environmental activism and preserve one of the world s most fragile ecosystems.
Enter Sam Branson, son of Virgin Group mogul Sir Richard Branson.
Steger is galvanizing the next generation of leaders to advocate for the environment and has compiled an international team of 20-something adventurers to give us an Arctic close-up of global warming. The younger Branson an adventurer, musician and author who joined Steger s 2007 expedition to Baffin Island is one member of an impressive team that includes two National Geographic Young Explorer grantees, an Iditarod competitor, a Polar historian and two international record-holders in kite-skiing who hail from Norway, Great Britain, Canada and the United
