Rita road in Tucson near the old Hughes facility (now Raytheon) is named after her because Mr. Howard Hughes wanted it that way.

Frequency-hopping spread-spectrum invention Avant garde composer George Antheil, a son of German immigrants and neighbor of Lamarr, had experimented with automated control of musical instruments, including his music for Ballet Mécanique, originally written for Fernand Léger's 1924 abstract film. This score involved multiple player pianos playing simultaneously. Lamarr took her idea to Antheil and together, Antheil and Lamarr submitted the idea of a secret communication system in June 1941. On August 11, 1942, US Patent 2,292,387 was granted to Antheil and "Hedy Kiesler Markey", Lamarr's married name at the time. This early version of frequency hopping used a piano roll to change between 88 frequencies and was intended to make radio-guided torpedoes harder for enemies to detect or jam. Although a presentation of the technique was soon made to the U.S. Navy, it met with opposition and was not adopted.[5] The idea was not implemented in the USA until 1962, when it was used by U.S. military ships during a blockade of Cuba after the patent had expired. Perhaps owing to this lag in development, the patent was little-known until 1997, when the Electronic Frontier Foundation gave Lamarr an award for this contribution.[1] It is reported that, in 1998, Ottawa wireless technology developer Wi-LAN, Inc. "acquired a 49 percent claim to the patent from Lamarr for an undisclosed amount of stock" (Eliza Schmidkunz, Inside GNSS),[6] although expired patents have no economic value. Antheil had died in 1959. Lamarr's and Antheil's frequency-hopping idea serves as a basis for modern spread-spectrum communication technology, such as Bluetooth, COFDM used in Wi-Fi network connections, and CDMA used in some cordless and wireless telephones.[7] Blackwell, Martin, and Vernam's 1920 patent Secrecy Communication System (1598673) seems to lay the communications groundwork for Kiesler and Antheil's patent, which employed the techniques in the autonomous control of torpedoes. Lamarr wanted to join the National Inventors Council, but was reportedly told by NIC member Charles F. Kettering and others that she could better help the war effort by using her celebrity status to sell War Bonds. She once raised $7,000,000 at just one event.[citation needed [URL=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedy_Lamarr]Not "Hedley."[/URL] |

Awesome video! Very cute.
Rita Hayworth was one of the hottest babes in Hollywood during the '40s. As far as barracks and locker pinups in all the services, this picture was second only to the iconic pic of Betty Grable peeking over her left shoulder as we gazed at her wonderful ass! ![]() |

I just watched From Here to Eternity and Donna Reed and Deborah Kerr were really underappreciated. The old stars were products of the studio system. They were put under contract and taught their craft. They were also expected to look like a star. I read that one Sunday evening Donna Reed left her apartment in Hollywood and crossed the street to get a paper, wearing jeans and a blouse. Louis B. Mayer happened to be passing in him limo, saw her and summoned her to his office the next day. Told her if he ever saw her in public dressed that way again he'd tear up her contract. |

The only real trend in dance music has been to make the beat more prominent- but it's the same tempo from the 30's on. |

Interesting story re. her name: The movie companies could legally bar you from acting if they already had 2 people with the same name. There were 2 Mary Moores on their books... so she adopted her mother's maiden name and became Mary Tyler-Moore. |
