Ladies and gentlemen, this is Jimmy Wallington. Due to the illness of Miss Joan Crawford, our adaptation of The Damned Don't Cry, scheduled for this evening, has been postponed. Screen Directors Playhouse, Stars, Marlena Dietrich, John Lund, Lucille Ball, Production, A Foreign Affair, Director, Billy Wilder. This is the Screen Directors Playhouse, the Thursday night feature on NBC's All-Star Festival of Comedy, Music, Mystery and Drama.  The cigarette that brings you Bing Crosby and Bob Hope. By the makers of Anison, for fast relief from the pain of headache, neuritis and neuralgia. And by RCA Victor, world leader in radio, first in recorded music, first in television. Tonight the Screen Directors Playhouse is pleased to present the sound of love and laughter. Here are Lucille Ball, Marlena Dietrich and John Lund, starring in our adaptation of an adventure in comedy named A Foreign Affair. And now, Mr. Crosby, if you please. Now here's Chesterfield's answer to Cyrano de Bergerac, Bob Hope. I'd top easy, Dad, but we only have a minute here to sell Chesterfield. Okay, well, let's get to it. Better tasting Chesterfield is the only cigarette that combines, for you, mildness with no unpleasant aftertaste. The mildness is a cinch to prove. You just make the Chesterfield mildness test. You know, open a pack and enjoy that milder aroma, then smoke them, and you'll know that Chesterfield's a mild. And Chesterfield leaves no unpleasant aftertaste. That fact has been confirmed by the country's first and only cigarette taste panel. So make our cigarette your cigarette. The reasons go together like this. Chesterfield, Chesterfield always takes first place. That milder mild tobacco never leaves our aftertaste. Oh, open a pack and give them a smell, then you'll smoke them. Now, the first act of a foreign affair starring John Lund and Marlene Dietrich in their original roles of Captain John Pringle and Erika von Schlutto and Lucille Ball as Phoebe Frost. In all the world, there's only one thing more awesome than a visiting congressman. And that is a visiting congresswoman. With this, we give you Miss Phoebe Frost, bound for Berlin aboard an American transport plane. Prim, Miss Phoebe Frost. Immersed in the note, she is carefully writing into a prim black book, which she holds primly propped on a large cake box. There are three and one-quarter women for every man in Berlin. I wonder what they do with a quarter of a woman. Probably save her for the quarter, Master Sergeant. Congresswoman Frost, we're approaching Berlin. Yes, Congressman Giffin, I know. Well, don't you want to see the ruins? Must I remind the chairman of our committee that this is not a sightseeing tour? We're here to investigate the morale of United States troops. My, my, look at that wreckage.  Not nearly so horrible as a sight of an American boy fraternizing with a German woman. I've heard of those things. What the American Army needs is more setting up exercises. When we land, I assure you, Congressman, that I shall explore the situation thoroughly. Phoebe Frost is a relentless foe of fraternization. Colonel Blummer, the honor guard is formed. Thank you, Captain Pringle. Appli! Lieutenant Lee, you look despondent. You'll have to smile for the Congressman. Oh, it seems German dames, Pringle. Lieutenant Trudy, the fireball froline. What happened? I lost it.  A Russian sergeant came along with a pound of rancid butter. Oh, you're, you're an amateur, Lee. I wouldn't be afraid of a Russian general with a ton of caviar. Take a look at these. Here, in my pocket. Highlines? Where'd you get them? Black markets. For Erica. Yeah? Well, you're gonna get into trouble messing around with that high voltage nightclub singer. Erica found Schluter wouldn't harm a baby. Not till I put pants on.  Rumors, rumors, jealous rumors. There's plum on his toes. Colonel's gonna make with a speech. Once more, gentlemen. It is our honor and privilege to turn out at this airfield with a brass band and welcome a visiting committee. This time it's to investigate our morale. It seems back home they've got an idea that this is one great big picnic. That all we do is swing in hammocks with beautiful blonde fowl lines and swap cigarettes for castles on the ride. Now this committee's gonna be here for five days. I'm counting on you men to behave, period. Now I see our guests have arrived. Where's Colonel Plummer? I'm Colonel Plummer. Congressman Giffin, may I extend the enthusiastic welcome of the American military government? Well, as chairman of this committee, permit me to bring you greetings from the people of the United States. These are my colleagues. Congressman Penecott. Salvatore. Cross. And this is Congresswoman Phoebe Frost. From Iowa, the ninth district of Iowa. Colonel Plummer, I came here hoping to find an army taking its task seriously. Instead, I find a military band. What, no drum majorettes? We had some, but we sent them back to the barracks. They forgot to shave. This is scarcely a jesting matter, Colonel. Perhaps we can discuss it at lunch. May I carry that box for you? No, no, thank you. I undertook to deliver it to a Captain John Pringle here in Berlin. I don't suppose you could tell me where to find him. I could try. Captain Pringle. Oh, is he here? Captain Pringle reporting, sir. Congresswoman Frost. This is Captain Pringle. This is for you, Captain. Happy birthday. Uh, birthday? Yes, it's a cake. Oh, my birthday. Oh, I'd forgotten. It came all the way from Murdoch, Iowa. Wow, wow, wow, wow. My old home state. Uh, how is good old Iowa? 67% Republican, thank you. I was entrusted with this cake by the daughter of one of my constituents. Open it. Huh? Oh, yeah, yeah, sure. Well, what do you know? Isn't that sweet love from Dusty? In pink and white icing. Isn't that nice, Colonel? Picky goo. Oh, great kid, Dusty. I sure miss her. Don't you ever get any leave? Oh, I don't want any leave. What? Oh, well, that is personal feelings don't matter. Winning the peace, you know. That's fine, but... Captain Pringle. Yes, ma'am? That thing hanging out of your pocket. It looks like... It is. It's nylon. A woman stalking Captain Pringle. Oh, I guess my garter snapped. Colonel Plummer, do your officers usually go about looking like the hosiery counter at Macy's? Oh, well, my mother sent me these. Just got them today. And that burnt brown color just matches your personality. Yes. I mean, no, no. They're a present for Dusty. Why, Captain Pringle, how thoughtful. And now here you are with a birthday cake all alone. Oh, they'll be my buddies. Oh. We'll open a case of root beer and light the candles, sing some old songs. It'll be just like good old Iowa, almost. May I say that if you're a sample of the Army spirit, I feel better already. Oh, I'm a sample, all right. Goodbye, Miss Frost. Goodbye. Captain, look at that cake. When are we going to eat it? Eat it?  I'm going back to the black market and parlay this pastry into something a lot more useful. What's that, John? A mattress, Lee. A mattress. You up there. That's my signal. Come on, Erica, throw down that key. Thank you. Okay, mattress. Come with daddy. Yes, you great big gorgeous blonde doll. Peel my forehead. I got frowline fever. Don't hold me so tight, Johnny. Why are you so mean to me? Listen, you man-manus, I worry about you.  Presents? Where, Johnny? Where?  You're tickling me. Oh, stockings. They're so sheer and so beautiful. Sure. I brought you another present. Where, Johnny? What is it? A mattress. A real mattress. Now I can sleep. No mattress will help you sleep. What you Germans need is a new conscience. Oh, I have a very good conscience. I have a new fear now. I have you. Hi, Johnny. You hire me once more, sweetheart, and I'll knock your teeth in. How, Johnny? With a kiss? Like this? Hmm.  Captain Fringon. My new mattress. What good will it be for me if they put me in a labor camp? Picking up rubble. Oh, they wouldn't dare. You'd singe the bricks. I wasn't really a Nazi. Yeah, I know.  Signed your papers. Johnny, does that mean I'll be free? I won't have to do these terrible things for the army. Only for the part of the army named Pringle. The duty officer cleared you. But who was he, this duty officer? Me. Johnny, you could get into trouble. I got into trouble the day I met you. Now, let's see you turn on that flamethrower again. If you suffer from pains of headaches, neuritis, or neuralgia, you should discover what many thousands have known for years, that anison brings incredibly fast, effective relief. Anison is like a doctor's prescription. That is, anison contains not just one, but a combination of medically proven active ingredients and easy to take tablet form. Probably at some time you've received an envelope containing anison tablets from your physician or dentist. Thousands of people have been introduced to anison this way. Try anison yourself the next time you suffer from the pains of a headache, neuritis, or neuralgia. You'll be delighted at how quickly relief can come. Anison is spelled A-N-A-C-I-N. Your druggist has anison in handy boxes of 12 and 30 tablets, and economical family size bottles of 50 and 100 for your medicine cabinet. Ask for anison today. Here is Act 2 of the Screen Directors Playhouse presentation of a foreign affair, starring Lucille Ball, Marlene Dietrich, and John Lund. As chairman of this congressional committee, I wish to thank Colonel Plummer and his staff for this pleasant and educational luncheon. Now, duty calls. If, uh, if you gentlemen and Miss Frost will just go along with Lieutenant Lee here, he has arranged a tour of the area for you. Well, thank you very much. Right this way, please. Oh, visiting congressman.  Colonel Plummer.  Well, you'd better run along or you'll miss the tour. For an Iowa woman, a guided tour is like a man with an apartment. They both want to take you where you don't want to go.  Colonel Plummer, driving over here on the streets of Berlin, I was shocked to see American soldiers walk right up and speak to German women without an introduction. Well, evidence to Betsy. This is a serious matter. What do you intend to do? Personally investigate the morals of the whole United States Army? I haven't got the strength. I couldn't possibly. Colonel Plummer, you've given me an idea. Oh, now, wait a minute, please. For the honor and glory of the United States.  Then advice this city is, a girl walks her feet off and she can't even get into trouble. Hey, frow lies. Really? Two of them. What do I do now? Look, a rove, Joe, a very tasty dish. Hiya, strudel. Maybe she don't like GIs. What do you mean maybe she don't like GIs? Show her a candy bar. Ja. Tonsenmarken? Kills me. All she can say is Ja. Your name? Ja. Gretchen what? Gretchen, Gesundheit. Gretchen, what a sneeze. How do you like these bandits? Dices, five packs of cigarettes for a lousy bottle of wine. Yeah. Dices, Eine, Kleine, a clip joint. Know what Germany needs? More cigarettes for you and me. Maybe we ought to write them donut heads in Congress. Why, you? What did you say, strudel? Ja. You could run for Congress yourself, back home. Reaching high. Build on sad. A touch of paradise. A spell you can't explain. Or in this crazy paradise. Want to buy some illusions. Slightly used. Just like you. Such romantic illusions. And they are all. Yes, she looks very sad. So does a bloodhound, but it bites. Now, let's stay out of sight. I don't want her to see me. That's the kind of pastry that makes you drool on your bib. You know what I say?  The Goebbelsguller, Gehrings, one of them anyway. How does she get away with it? She hooked herself up with some big army brass. Are you supposed to spank certain dance? Come on, Gretchen. Gretchen, loosen up. Don't you know how to dance? That cake. What did you say? That's the cake I brought from Iowa. The cake on the table. Gretchen, what are you saying?  I happen to be a congresswoman of the United States. Oh, brother, let me out. Birthday present. This cake is confiscated. Oh, Captain Pringle. So, this is what happened to my cake. What do you know about this? Well, it was stolen from my jeep in the Brandenburg Gate area, Miss Frost. Oh. You know, the black market? Yes. I traced the cake here, but don't you trouble yourself, Miss Frost. Oh, no, no, no. Where is my notebook? There. Now, what exactly is the name of this rat trap? Why, uh, the, uh, Laura Lie. The Laura Lie. What is the name of that woman? Woman? What woman? The singer here.  Well, let me see now if I can place her. I think it's, um, uh, um, Ericka, something like that. Ericka what? Ericka von Schlutow. How do you spell it? With the noob, love. I thought so. How does it? Even her name is subversive. That's why I ask you to this conference. When we moved into Germany, we found a country of open graves and closed hearts. We've tried to turn it into a civilized state. It's a tough, thankless, lonely job. Oh, sure, sure, some of us get out of line occasionally. But, but remember this. For the first time in history, you're asking the same generation of soldiers to be both valorous and wise. Well, as chairman of this committee, Colonel, let me tell you we understand. Yes, sir, we certainly do. I don't. What? I know Ms. Frost. You're from Iowa. What about the GIs, concerning with frawlines and wide-open, shameless, black market nightclubs, dives where they serve bootleg birthday cake? What about a strudel named Erika Von Schluto, who works, if that is the word for it, at a dive called the Lorelei? How could I— I, pardon me, please. Did you say Erika Von Schluto? I did. I'm sorry, but I must ask you to drop this particular matter. Ha!  There are some things which must be left to the discretion of the military. The last time someone tried to gag me, Colonel, he tried it with a mink coat in the middle of winter. I'd just like you to know, he got five years and I got pneumonia. Uh, is that for me? Yes, Captain Pringle. I simply cannot get myself to trust anybody in uniform. Oh, no, Miss Frost. That is anybody but you. Me? Yes, and Captain, I need your help. I want some data about Fraulein Von Schluto. Oh, you mean her? Oh, her, yeah, yeah. Have you checked up on her file? Well, uh, I'll tell you about that. It's all a mistake. Might as well forget the whole thing. Want to pop some corn or something? We will not forget it, Captain Pringle. I have procured these two photographs from the signal core file. Well, let's see. Well, this one is just a picture of Hans Otto Birgel, big man in the Gestapo, has a girl on his arm, Erica Von Schluto. Well, that's nothing. Erica! You say he was an important party member? What? Oh, well, so-so. Look at the way she's holding on to him. Well, maybe she doesn't know him. Maybe she had a dizzy spell and the first thing she could catch was his elbow. Where is Hans Otto Birgel now? Oh, he's dead. He killed himself. I see. And this other picture. Just look at who's kissing her hand. Well, he's got a little moustache. He looks like Hitler. Hitler himself. This woman who entertains our boys was a major Nazi. Yes. Well, well, I'll see that she discontinues her appearances as an entertainer. Will that be satisfactory? It will not. Oh, I won't, huh? It's common talk that some American army officer is protecting that woman. It's him that I want. So you, uh, you think you'll... you'll find him? Of course. The only way he can see her is by visiting her. She can't come to him. Oh, you're so right. Therefore, to catch him, we've got to watch her place. Oh, that's a smart idea. I'll watch it myself, personally, night and day. No, we'll watch it together, the two of us. We will? I want to face that man and expose him. If necessary, I'll go to the general. Oh, no, not the general. I will. And to the war department. Oh, no. And to the president. And if he doesn't do it, I'll see Margaret. Now, here's a word from RCA Victor. Inch for inch.

You are listening to the Screen Directors Playhouse, the Thursday night feature on NBC's All-Star Festival brought to you by Chesterfield, the cigarette that has for you mildness with no unpleasant aftertaste, the best cigarette for you to smoke. By the makers of Anison, for faster relief from the pain of headache, neuritis, and neuralgia. And by RCA Victor, world leader in radio, first in recorded music, first in television. The Screen Directors Playhouse presentation of a foreign affair starring Marlena Dietrich, John Lund, and Lucille Ball will continue in just a moment after a brief pause for station identification. This is the Screen Directors Playhouse. We continue with the third act of a foreign affair starring Marlena Dietrich and John Lund with the original roles of Erika Von Schluto and Captain John Pringle and Lucille Ball as Phoebe Frost. Captain John Pringle is suffering. Captain John Pringle has been carrying on with Erika Von Schluto. Captain John Pringle has been trapped by Congresswoman Phoebe Frost in a tracking himself down. And so far into the Berlin night, Pringle and Phoebe sit in a jeep outside of Erika's bomb-shattered apartment and Pringle suffers. Oh, it's after curfew. It's a sin she won't be coming tonight. I see that you had very little experience in affairs of this type. They work on a 24-hour basis. Okay, let's come back in 24 hours. Please, Captain, you're sure there are no back stairs to the apartment? Lady, there isn't even a back wall. Well, she is waiting for somebody or she wouldn't leave the lights on. Maybe she's putting up pickled peaches. Not her. Oh, pickled peaches. Golly, but I bet you sure miss Iowa. What? Oh, sure, sure. Great little state. No morale problems there. We had the lowest juvenile delinquency rate in the country until two months ago. What happened? A little boy in Des Moines took a blowtorch to his mother. We fell clear back to 16th place. Well, those things do happen. Oh, golly, I'm sleepy. Look out for that horn. Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, that did it. What was that? Crickets. Key. Whatever for? Apparently, the man honks the horn. That's the signal. Come on, hide. Oh, that's my goose. Are you a Johnny? Did she say Tommy? No, Johnny. His name is Johnny. Oh, well, there's lots of Johnny's in the Army. But this eliminates all the gyms, bobs, and Georges. Is that her perfume, I smell? Oh, that's my goose cooking. Hello, Johnny. Don't. Don't. Captain. Don't know who you're referring to, and this lady with me is Congresswoman Frost of the Congress of the United States. You are Erica Vansoluto? I am. We have reason to believe you are consorting with some member of our armed forces. What gives you that idea? The key you dropped. That was for the milkman. Miss Vansoluto, if you please. She wears no lipstick. And what a curious way to do her hair. Oh, brother. Are you now, or have you ever been, connected with a member of the armed forces of the United States? If so, what is his name? Perhaps if she changed the line of her eyebrows a little. I'm sorry, Miss Frost, but I don't know what you're talking about. Good night. Good night, Captain. Whatever your name is. Well, that's that. Let's call it a night, huh? I suppose I do look awful. No, no, no, you don't. We were only allowed 60 pounds of luggage. I didn't bring any makeup. Oh, never let another woman tell you how you look. They always hit you in the face below the belt. No lipstick. Ask a man. No mascara either. Well, I think you look charming in a... windblown sort of way. You're just saying that to be nice. Oh, no, no, really. You're very sweet. Captain, now getting back to that woman. The man behind her must be really important. Important enough to cover up for her. Oh, I don't know. You read stories like this every day in the papers? That's it. Papers. The man must have signed her papers. Oh, no. Find the file. Find the signature on her papers, and we found our man. Solution. Here's the shootout. Anton, Emel, Frist, Gottfried. No, Erika. No, Erika? Oh, that's too bad. Well, let's go, huh? Gotta write my mother a letter. I could have sworn. Captain Pringle. It's Erika Von Schluto. Von. It's under Von. Oh, no. That's silly. Like O'Brien. You wouldn't look under B. You'd look under O. All right. Let's look under O. Under B. Must be here. Von Resnicek. Von Rudeschheim. Did it ever occur to you that there might be some extenuating circumstances? This man is making a mockery of his country's uniforms. Von Saum. Von Salzburg.  Von Sandburg. Why? I'll tell you. No moral break. Sure. He's going too fast. Only during the war, he couldn't go fast enough. Get on that beach head. Get through those tank traps. Speed. Lots of it. Then the war is over, and you expect him to ram on those brakes and stop like that. Yes, Captain Pringle. Just like that. Well, maybe he needs a little affection. Why would you know about that, Congresswoman Frost? Yes, I know about that. It might interest you to know that I was in love once. Oh, not really. He was a Southern Democrat. One night, he drove me home, and he put his arms around me, and he said he yearned for my lips. And then he did a terrible thing. What? He tried to sway my vote. What did you do? I did what any decent American girl would do. I filibustered. Filibustered? I just kept talking. Poems and things. You know, the midnight ride of Paul Revere. I got through it twice. He was disillusioned, and I was very hoarse. Well, we still haven't found her file. Van Schloss, Van Schlatzing. And I bet you haven't been kissed since. None of your business. Van Schulman, Van... Van Schlutto, Carl Donner. Ah, if it's here, it should be this next... Congresswoman. Close that file. What are you doing? That Southern Democrat isn't the only guy who's yearned for those lips. Captain Pringle, keep away. Don't... Why? You know Nazi.  Congresswoman.  Listen, listen, listen, my children, and you shall hear... Forget children. Forget children. Think about men. The midnight ride of Paul Revere? Congresswoman, darling, I'm asking for the floor. Oh, oh. On the 18th of April in 75... I demand the floor. Hardly a man is now alone. Hmm. You're entirely out of order. Objection overruled. Oh, John... Come on. Let's get out of here. I know where there's a beam of moonlight with your name on it. But the file... Bright moonlight or dusty old files. What shall it be? Oh, moonlight, John, moonlight. Oh, hurry, darling. The hours are running out, and I want to spend every magic moment with you. It's been so long. What has my Kleina Liebling been doing? Your Kleina Liebling has been making charm with the Bloodhound. The Congresswoman? Yep. We're engaged. Engaged? Yep. We sat and held hands and whistled China on Harvest Moon.  I didn't know you were in that deep. What deep? How deep? Why didn't you tell me about you in Hans Otto Birgel? He's dead. You and that fear of yours. Kissing your hand.  Don't talk like that. Why not?   I love you very much. Now, isn't that nice? I want to go to America with you. I want to climb the Statue of Liberty. You want to get down in that basement at Fort Knox? Johnny, I've got some vodka and I had the pornograph fixed. Sorry, I got a date. Date? With my fiancée. I have to keep the stars in her eyes until she leaves tomorrow. But you'll come tomorrow night, Johnny. Yeah, I guess so. So long now.  Every new champagne could taste so good. But why did you insist on coming to the Lorelei? Oh, Johnny, it's our last night. I wanted to have some fun. Yeah, yeah, sure. I don't know whether it's a champagne, but I'm absolutely dizzy with happiness. Before, I was just drifting on the Gracie all alone. And nowhere comes a boat so unexpected, all white sails on the horizon to you. Oh, cut it out. Someday you might find out I'm not so beautiful. Oh, look, it's Ms. Vansoluto. May I join you? No. Oh, no. Thank you. Have you made any progress tracking down that man? What man? My man. Oh, a little progress, but I don't care very much about your man because of my man. Isn't he beautiful? More champagne, darling. Oh, Phoebe, please. When are you leaving Berlin, Ms. Frost? Tomorrow night. This is our last night together.  He'll be so lonely without you. No, he won't. He'll think about me. About his little Phoebe, won't you? Oh, sure I will. Poor, poor boy. Johnny. Lee, what are you doing here? Colonel Plum is yelling for you. John, I don't want you to go. What does he want? I don't know, but you better get to his office before he pops his buttons. Oh, of all the times. Come on, Phoebe. I shall be very pleased to take care of Ms. Frost. Oh, I better take her home. Go on, get going. She'll be all right. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, thanks, Lee. Captain Pringle reporting, sir. Don't point that lipstick at me. Yes, sir. Now, listen, passionflower.  Yes, sir. Pringle, I honestly think you have as good a war record as any man in this town. You've been on the first team ever since Normandy. And I know you were among the first ten men across the Romagant Bridge. I also know why you were in such a hurry. Well, that's a long story, sir. So is this Erika von Schluto. Captain Pringle, we've been wise to you and her all along. Sir, you peaked. We also know that you've been playing a double bill with the lady from Iowa. I'd appreciate it if you'd leave her out of this.  Captain, you're to stay away from that certain party.  Oh, sure. That was over anyway. Climbing those stairs was beginning to get me. Now, just a minute. Get it straight. You're to stay away from the congresswoman. What, Phoebe? But why? Because you're going to pick up the torch for Fraulein von Schluto and lug it again. Lug it in public. Well, what do you know? Did you ever hear of Hans Otto Bergall? Sure. Erika's Nazi boyfriend. He's dead. He's dead. Nothing. He's very much alive.  What have I got to do with it? Plenty. Someone tipped him off that his girl has been seen around with an American officer. Not about it. That only... Oh. Oh. Yes.  That's cute. A shotgun wedding.  Stick around the Fraulein until Bergall shows up. Our men will see that you have adequate protection. Any other questions? Yeah. Why did I ever join the Army? Sit down, Miss Frost. But you still haven't told me why you asked me to your apartment. It's very simple. I want my man. The American officer? You're still a little drunk, and maybe that's good. Because this is a beastly thing I'm going to do. You must understand what has happened to us here. We've all become animals with exactly one instinct left. Self-preservation has been a life of misery. But now I've found a man and threw him a roof and a job and food. And I'm not going to lose him. Why tell all this to me? Because you want the same man. What? What did you say? Here, take my handkerchief. You'll need it. You... you mean John? He's such a nice boy, really.  He comes here so miserable and so sorry for you. It couldn't be. Not John. But it is. One moment, darling. I don't want him to see me. I'm afraid it's too late now. Just sit over there in the corner. Hello? What's the matter? No kiss for your little shrine-hunt? Oh, I'm sorry I had to show up with a lower-lie with that Congress name, but she doesn't mean a thing. Nothing, Johnny? Just laughs. Come on, break out that vodka.  I'm sorry. So am I. Not for myself. For you. Colonel Plummer, I can't go through with this. I'm sorry, Captain. That's how it is. I know it's tough on you, but we can't afford to let Bergle slip out of the net now. It's not me. It's Miss Frost. I told you what happened last night. Sorry. But why can't I straighten things out with her? According to our information, Bergle is coming out of his raffle tonight. So you're spending your time with Froline Von Schluto with a lower-lie club. Hello, Sergeant. You all right? Sure. Like a clay pigeon. We think we've spotted Bergle. Well, then arrest him. We aren't positive it's Bergle. When will you know? When he tries to shoot you. Oh, thank you, Sergeant. You've been very helpful. Don't worry, Captain Pringle. We'll be covering you when Bergle shows. Yeah, with a sheet. See you later. But will I see you? Johnny, I didn't expect to see you at the lower-lie tonight. That makes two of us. Tonight I have a surprise for you. Yeah? What is it?  I've got a surprise for you, so is mine. Tonight I'll try a new way of doing it. I will sing in the dark. No lights. Hey, you can't do that. But it's so effective, Johnny. There. See? The lights are out. Oh, brother. Nice and dark, Johnny. Clear. Give me your hand while I sing. Oh, make it fast, baby. Get those lights on again. Want to buy some illusions. Slightly used. Second hand. They wear lovely illusions. Reaching high. Don't move, Captain, and don't turn around. What? What, Captain? A gun. Captain, allow me to introduce myself. Hans Otto Bergle. How do you do? She sings beautifully, doesn't she? Listen, Captain. Yes, pain, Captain. Pain as I have known, as you too shall know. Very soon. It won't work, Bergle. But it will accomplish her death and yours. Listen to her. If she finishes her song, Captain, the lights will go on, and we can't have that. Neither you nor she shall see the lights again. You loved her, Captain.  Oh, fiend! You wanted to see me. Yes. Yes, there's something I want to talk to you about. A Captain named Pringle. Please, Colonel Plummer, I don't want to hear it. There's not much to be said in his defense. But there is this. He isn't enjoying his little romance with Froland von Schlutto. I'm not listening. Miss Frost, Captain Pringle has been acting as a decoy to trap Froland von Schlutto's old boyfriend. Hans Otto Bergle? Yes, he's alive. You mean John was acting under orders? It had to be that way after he met you. You see, pardon me. Colonel Plummer. Yes, I've been waiting for the call from the military police. Well, when did it happen? Any particulars? Right, I'm leaving now. Miss Frost, you'd better come along with me. There's been a shooting at the Lorelei Club. John? I don't know. Let's find out. This is it. Come on. Lieutenant, where is he? Under that sheet, sir. Dead. You wait here, Miss Frost. I'll have a look. Who plugs right through the kisser? Right through the... Oh, she's fainted. No sense of humor. Where's Pringle? Pringle! Right here, sir. You all right? He dropped Berger with his first shot. Shucks, Captain. Don't give me all the credit. The other boys got in there two bits worth, too. Well, Pringle, you'd better attend to that congresswoman of yours. She's fainted. Phoebe? Here? Right over there. Now, Lieutenant, how about, uh, Froland von Schludo? The MP's bringing her now.  Leaving her with those poor, defenseless boys?  Yes, sir. Come on, von Schludo. You got a von date with a pile of von bricks. Colonel Plummer? Colonel Plummer? Are you that wonderful Colonel Plummer I heard so much about? Uh... Yes.  Take her away, Corporal. Come on, sister. Colonel, can you take me to my apartment while I change? I guess so. Come on, Corporal. You, sergeant. Yes, sir? Go along with the Corporal. Watch him. I sure will, sir. You, platoon sergeant. Yes, sir? You follow them. Watch out for those two guys. Yes, sir. It's a pleasure. Colonel Plummer? Yes, Lieutenant? I was just thinking, sir. So was I. You watch them. Like a hawk. Come to think of it, I'd better watch him. What happened? You must have fainted, darling. He said there were two slugs in your kisser. There ought to be. Oh, no. I'm sorry about everything, except the time with you. John, help me up. There. John, I love you. Oh, no. Not me. I'm a heel. Certified. Got papers to prove it. John, come here, John. Oh, no, no, listen, Phoebe, listen. Listen. Listen to my children and you shall hear it. Forget children. Think about women. Up the midnight ride of Paul Revere. Captain Pringle, dear. May I have the floor? You're out of order. Everything's out of order. Overruled. I object. To what? Paul Revere's horse just stumbled. Oh, Phoebe, I don't think... Oh, Congresswoman. You're elected. Don't be silly, John. These are just the primaries. And so we've reached the end of our presentation of a foreign affair. Our stars will be back in just a moment with this week's guest director. Next Thursday, the screen director's playhouse promises the gift of laughter when two great comedy stars bring you the sparkling story of Bachelor Mother, directed by Garson Canaan. As for the stars, once again, we'll welcome Lucille Ball, and with her will be Robert Cummings. Now here again at tonight's stars, Lucille Ball, Marlena Dietrich, and John Lund. So here we are, three actors together. Yeah, if everybody blinks their eyes real fast, we can pretend we're a motion picture. What, without a director? That's like trying to make ham and eggs when all you have is ham. Well, we have the egg, too, Lucy, in the person of the director himself. So, ladies and gentlemen, may we introduce the brilliant creator of a foreign affair, the Academy Award-winning director of Lost Weekend, and of this year's nomination for the Academy Award, Sunset Boulevard. Here is Billy Wilder. Thank you very much. I should like to make only two remarks. First, a director is only as good as his story. Since I also wrote a foreign affair with Charles Brackett, you'll see this created no problem whatsoever. And second, a director is only as good as his producer. Since Charles Brackett was also the producer, the whole thing was an inside job and was bound to lead to trouble. It did. We made another picture named Sunset Boulevard. As a result, I hear they're considering a special Academy Award for Charles Brackett, the only writer-producer who ever survived the collaboration with Billy Wilder. Thank you, and good night. A foreign affair was presented through the courtesy of Paramount Pictures, whose current release is The Red Head and the Cowboy. Co-starring Glenn Ford, Edmond O'Brien, and Rhonda Fleming. John Lund will soon be seen co-starring with Gene Tierney in the Paramount Picture, The Mating Season, whose sealed ball can currently be seen in the Columbia Picture, The Fuller Brush Girl. Marlena Dietrich will soon be seen in the 20th Century Fox production, No Highway. Billy Wilder's latest picture for Paramount, soon to be released, is Ace in the Hole, starring Kirk Douglas with Jan Sterling. Included in tonight's cast were Wally Mayer, Sam Edwards, Dan Riss, Henry Rowland, Herb Beigren, and Gil Stratton Jr. A foreign affair was adapted for radio by Richard Allen Simmons. The Screen Directors Playhouse is produced by Howard Wiley and directed by Bill Karn. This is Jimmy Wallington speaking, and inviting you to listen again next Thursday when we present Bachelor Mother, starring Robert Cummings and Lucille Ball with Screen Director Garson Canan. You'll never forgive yourself if you missed the Theatre Guild on the Air this Sunday on NBC. Tune in at the usual time for an immortal hour and a half long performance of Shakespeare's Hamlet by the great John Gilgood with Dorothy McGuire and Pamela Brown. Listen again next week to Screen Directors Playhouse, the Thursday night feature on NBC's All-Star Festival of Comedy, Music, Mystery, and Drama. Listen tomorrow evening to the one and only Duffy Stavren, the Friday night feature of the All-Star Festival. William Bendix lives the life of Riley tomorrow night on NBC.


Black holes are called black for a reason. It's because they don't emit any light. Almost everything that we know about the universe around us, we know because of light. But light can't always paint the full picture. You can't see everything. In 2015, for the first time ever, we detected a collision between two black holes. But we didn't see it. Instead, it was the first time that we heard the music of gravity, small ripples in the fabric of space and time, called gravitational waves. Albert Einstein predicted the existence of gravitational waves a hundred years ago. They are created whenever masses accelerate through space. Gravitational wave astronomy has opened up a new window into the universe, allowing us to detect things that we cannot see. And in the future, may help us learn about things in our universe that we don't understand very well yet. Gravitational wave observatories combine state-of-the-art technology along with the most precise measurement techniques ever developed to measure these tiny ripples in space and time. As an experimental physicist, I always want to measure things more accurately. I have created a sensor which will help improve the performance of these gravitational wave observatories. My sensor uses a set of torsion pendulums which move and respond to changes in gravity. I use lasers to accurately measure this motion down to less than the diameter of an atom. My sensor is used to characterize changes in gravity here on Earth which show up as unwanted noise in the gravitational wave observatories looking out into space. By removing the effects of these noise, these observatories become more sensitive, allowing them to see new types of events and to see further into our universe. This fundamental science actually has real-world applications as well. I've done modeling to show that my sensor can be used to measure the gravitational signals that are produced during the course of an earthquake before the ground begins to shake. This means that my sensor can be used as an early warning system for oncoming earthquakes, providing up to a couple of minutes extra warning before the arrival of seismic waves. In these extra minutes, you can switch off important and potentially dangerous infrastructure like a nuclear reactor. You can tell people to take cover or stop a high-speed train. In this way, my sensor can be used to help protect important assets and save lives. When there are things that we cannot see, we have to open our ears. We can complete our picture of the universe by listening to the music of gravity.


Welcome to theCUBE's coverage of Mobile World Congress 2021. We are here in person in Barcelona, as well as remote, it's a hybrid event. You're going to have the physical space in Barcelona for the first time since 2019, and virtual worlds connecting. I got a great guest here from Google, Charlotte Shukla, Vice President and General Manager of the networking team, Google Cloud. Charlotte, it's great to see you. Thank you for coming on theCUBE for this special presentation from Mobile World Congress. The Edge networking, Core, Edge, Human, Devices all coming together. Thanks for coming on. Thank you so much, John. It's great to see you again, and it's always a pleasure talking to theCUBE. I want to also say hello to everybody from Mobile World Congress. Yeah, and people don't know your background. You've a great history in networking. You've been there, many ways of innovation. You've been part of directly big companies that we're now known, big names are all there. But now we haven't had a Mobile World Congress since 2019. Think about that. That's, you know, many months, 27 months gone by since the world has changed in telco. I got to ask you, what is the disruption happening? Because think about that. Since 2019, a lot's changed in telco. Cloud of scale has happened. You've got the Edge developing, it's IT like now. What's your take, Shailesh? Tell us.  I empathize with that. Now in the telecom and kind of the broader Edge world, I would say that the last 18, 24 months have actually been transformative. COVID, it turns out, was a very interesting sort of, you know, driver of completely new ways of both living as well as working, right? As we all have experienced. I don't think that I've had a chance to see you live in 24 months. So what we are seeing is the following. Number one, a number of telecom carriers around the world have started the investment process for 5G, right? And deployment process. And that actually changes the game as you know, due to latency, due to all of the capabilities around kind of incredible bandwidth, right? Much lower latency, as well as much higher kind of enterprise oriented capabilities, right? So network slicing as an example, quality of service, you know, by a traffic type and for a given enterprise. So that's number one. Number two, I would say that the cloud is becoming a lot more kind of mainstream. In the broader world of telecom, what we are seeing is an incredible amount of partnerships between telecom carriers and cloud providers, right? So instead of thinking of those two as separate universes, those are starting to come together. So I believe that over a period of time, you will see the notion of kind of cloud native capability for both the IT side of the house as well as the network side of the house is becoming kind of mainstream, right? And then the third thing is that increasingly it's a lot more about enabling new markets, new applications in the enterprise world, right? So certainly it opens up a new kind of revenue stream for service providers and carriers around the world. But it also does something unique, which is brings together the cloud capabilities, right? Around elasticity, flexibility, intelligence and so on with the enterprise customer base that most of the cloud providers already have and with the combination of 5G brings it to the telecom world. And those, I started to call it as kind of the triad, right? The triad of an enterprise, the telecom service provider and the cloud provider all working together to solve real kind of business problems. And it's totally great call out there on the pandemic. I think the pandemic has shown us coming out of it now that cloud scale matters. And you look at all the successes between work play and how we've all kind of adjusted the cloud technologies were a big part of that, those solutions that got us through it. Now you got the edge developing with 5G. And I got to ask this question because when we have CUBE interviews with all the leaders of engineering teams, whether it's in the industry or customers in the enterprise and even in the telcos, the modern application teams have end-to-end visibility into the workload. You're starting to see more and more of that. You're starting to see more open source in everything, right? So, okay, I buy that.  However, you're a networking guy. You know this, routing packets across multiple networks is difficult. So if you're going to have end-to-end visibility, you got to have end-to-end intelligence on the networking. How is that being solved? Because this is a critical discussion here at Mobile World Congress. Okay, I buy cloud-native, I buy observability, I buy open source, but I got to have end-to-end visibility for security and workload management and managing all the data. What's the answer on the network side? Yeah, so that's a great question. And the simple way to think about this is first and foremost, you need kind of global infrastructure, right? So that's a given, and of course, Google, with its kind of global infrastructure and some of the largest networks in the world, we have that present, right? So that's important. Second is to be able to abstract a way that underlying infrastructure and make it available to applications through a set of APIs, right? So I'll give an analogy here. Just as, say 10 years ago, around 10 years ago, Android came into the market from Google. In the following way, what it did was that it abstracted away the underlying devices with a simple kind of layer on top of operating system, which exposed APIs northbound so that application developers can write new applications. And that actually unleashed, a ton of kind of creativity around the world. And that's precisely what we believe is kind of the next step, as you said, on an end-to-end observability basis, right? What if you can do an abstraction away from all of the underlying kind of core infrastructure, provide the right APIs, the right kind of information around observability, around telemetry, instead of making, you know, cloud and the infrastructure, the black box, make it open, make it kind of visible to the applications. Bring that to the applications and let the thousand flowers bloom, right? The creativity in each vertical area is so significant because there are independent software vendors, there are systems integrators, there are individual developers. So one of the things that we are doing right now is utilizing open-source technologies such as Kubernetes, right? Which is something that Google actually brought into the market and it has become kind of the de facto standard for all of the container and modernization of applications. So by leveraging those open technologies, creating this common control plane, exposing APIs, right? For everything from application development to observability, you suddenly have the ability to solve business problems through a large number of entities in the systems integrator and the ISV and the developer community. So that's the approach that we are taking, John. I love the Android analogy of the subtractional layer because at that time the iPhone was closed. It still is and they got their own little strategy there. Android went the other way. They went open, went open abstraction. Now, abstraction layers are good and now I want to get your thoughts on this because anyone in operating systems knows the abstractions are great for innovation. How does that apply to the real world on Telco? Because I get how it could add some programmability in there. I get the control plane piece, putting it into the operator's hands. How do you guys see and how do you guys talk about the Edge service offering? What does it mean for the Telco? Because when I get this right, this is going to be in Telco cloud developer play. It's going to be a Telco cloud ecosystem play. It's an opportunity for a new kind of Telco system. How do you see that rolling out in the real world? Great question, John. So the way I look at it, actually even we should take a step back, right? So the confluence of 5G, the kind of cloud capabilities and the Edge is very clear to me that it's going to unleash a significant amount of innovation. We are in early stages, no question, but it's going to drive innovation. So one almost has to start by saying, what exactly is Edge, right? So the way I look at it is that the Edge can be a continuum all the way from kind of an IoT device and automobile, right? Or an enterprise Edge like a factory location or a retail store or kind of a bank branch to the telecom Edge, which is where the service providers have not only their points of presence and central offices, but increasingly a very large amount of intelligent RAN sites as well, right? And then kind of the public cloud Edge, right? Where for example, Google has 25 plus kind of regions around the world, 144 pops, lots of CDN locations. We have a few thousand nodes deployed deep inside service provider networks for caching of content and so on. So if you think about these as different places in the network that you can deploy, compute storage and intelligence at, right? And do that in a smart way, right? For example, if you were to run the learning algorithms in the cloud with its flexibility and elasticity and run the inferencing at the edge, very edge at the point of sort of a sale or a point where a consumer is standing, now you suddenly have the ability to create a variety of Edge applications. So going back to then your question, what are we seeing, right? So what we are seeing is depending on the vertical, there are different types of Edge applications, okay? So let's take a few examples and I'll give you some favorite example of mine which is in the sports arena, right? So in the baseball, right? When you are in a stadium and soon there are people sort of starting to be in stadiums, right? And a pitcher is throwing the pitch, right? The trajectory of the ball, the speed of the pitch, where the batter is, what the strike zone is and all of these things if they can be in a stadium in real time, analyzed and presented to the consumer as additional intelligence and additional insight, suddenly it actually creates kind of a immersive experience. Even though you may be in the stadium looking at the real thing, you are also seeing an immersive experience and of course at home you get a completely different experience, right? So the idea is that in sports, in media and entertainment the power of Edge compute and the power of AI ML, right? Can be utilized to create completely new immersive experiences. Similarly, in a factory or an automotive environment you have the ability to use AI ML and the power of the Edge and 5G coming together to find where the defects are in a manufacturing environment. So every vertical, what we are finding is there are very specific applications which you can call as kind of killer apps, right? In the Edge world that over time will become prevalent and mainstream and they will drive the innovation, they will drive deployment and they also will drive ultimately kind of the economics of all of this. You're laying out essentially the role of the public cloud and the telco market. I'd love to get your thoughts because a lot of people are saying out of the cloud it's all Edge now it's still going back to on-premises. This is not the case. I mean, I've been really vocal on this. The public cloud and cloud operations is now the new normal. So developers are there. So I want you to explain real quick the role of the public cloud in the telecom market and the telecom Edge because now they're working together. You got abstraction, you mentioned that Android-like environment coming. There's going to be an Android-like effect that abstraction, you got O-RAN out there creating these connection points for interoperability for radio signals and the transceivers or the edge of the radios. All this is happening. How is Google powering this? What is the role of public cloud in this? Yeah, so let me first talk about generically the role of public cloud then I'll talk about Google in particular. So if at the end of the day the goal here is to create applications in a very simple and efficient manner. So if you look, put that as the goal, then the public cloud brings three fundamental things. Number one is what I would call as elasticity and flexibility. So why is this important? Because as we discussed earlier, Edge is not one place. It's a variety of different locations. If there is a mechanism to create this common control plane and have the ability to kind of have elastic compute, elastic networking, elastic storage and have this deployed in a flexible manner. Literally, if you think about it like an effortless edge is what we are starting to call it. You can move workload and capability and run it precisely where it makes sense, right? Like I said earlier, training and learning algorithms in the deep cloud. Inferencing at the very edge, right? So if you can make that decision, then it becomes very powerful. So that's the first point. Elasticity and flexibility that the cloud can bring. Second is intelligence, right? The whole notion of leveraging the power of data and the power of AI and ML is extremely crucial for creation of new services. So that's something that the public cloud brings. And the third is this notion of right once deploy anywhere, right? This notion of kind of a full stack capability that an open kind of developer ecosystem can be brought in. Like we talked about Kubernetes earlier. So if there's a way in which you can bring in those developer and ISV ecosystem, which is already present in the world of public cloud, that's something that is the third thing that public cloud brings. And Google strategy very simply is to play on all of these, right? Because Google has incredibly rich deployment experience around the world for some of the largest services on the planet, right? With some of the biggest infrastructure in the networking world. Second is we have a very open and flexible approach, right? So open, as you know, we not only leverage kind of the Kubernetes environment, but also there are many other areas, Knative and so on where Google has brought a lot of open kind of capabilities to the broader market. And the third is the enablement of the ecosystem. So last year, we actually announced 200 applications from 30 ISVs in multiple verticals that were now going to be deployed on Google cloud in order to solve specific business pain points, right? And building out that ecosystem, working with telecom service providers, with systems integrators, with equipment players is the way that we believe Google cloud can make a difference in this world of developing edge applications. We are seeing great traction, John, whether it is in the carrier world, carriers such as Orange, telecom, Italia, Telus, SK telecom, Vodafone, these have all publicly announced their work with Google cloud, leveraging the power of data, analytics, AIML and our very flexible infrastructure. And then a variety of kind of partners and OEM players in the industry, as an example, Nokia, right? Amdox, Netcracker and many others. So we are really excited at the traction that we are getting. And we believe that public cloud is going to be a key part of the evolution of the telecom industry. Charles, great to have you on. Charles Shukas, VP and GM of networking at Google cloud. And I would just add to that final point there that open and this Android like open environment is going to create a thousand flowers to bloom. Those are new applications, new modern applications, new companies, a new ecosystem in the telco cloud. So congratulations. Thanks for coming on and sharing your insights, Google cloud, you guys are about the data and being open. Thanks for coming on. Thank you, John. Great to talk to you. Okay. So it keeps coverage of Mobile World Congress. Google cloud featured interview here on the cube, really a big part of the public cloud is going to be a big driver. Call it public cloud, hybrid cloud, whatever you want to call it's the cloud, cloud and edge with 5G, making a big difference and changing the landscape and providing innovation for the telco space. I'm John Furrier, your cube host. Thanks for watching.


the scientific methods observations first the contents the scientific method making observations data data types first we'll discuss the scientific methods students scientific methods and common methods these two basic terms that we use in daily life scientific method is a series of steps followed by scientists to answer a specific natural problem scientific methods are based on facts and measurable evidences or scientific method they have certain steps the first step scientific methods can that is the observations observations simply observation come at a little bit here can you please go observe career in scientific terms observation means to observe certain issue collect the information regarding some specific scientific issue so observation can you have any big information collect that we use our senses we can use five senses of your mother total five senses of five is going to be senses you'll use the same sometime problem come observe by the visualizations sometime by hearing sometime by smelling the sometime by taste and sometime by touching the of the we get the observations from observation the information which we collect from observation that is called the data so it means data is the information which is obtained by the observations are from the observations so for getting observations normally we use our five senses but during scientific experiments scientific issues where our five senses are not so accurate we get the benefit we get the help of the scientific instruments the informations are data we obtain from the observation that may fall into main categories quantitative data and the qualitative data that information are that is in the form of number that is called the quantitative data just like we say number of persons count the height measure the weight measure the or then if you have fever then temperature measure these are all things which are data which is a numerical form I call quantitative data when there is some time some information which is a qualitative form observe the same sometime if we observe the shape color observe we can't measure the shape we can't measure the color in normal sense so colors shape such thing properties which are not in numerical form they are called the qualitative data so overall if you look at the quantitative data we need specific instruments like temperature measure we need thermometer if we have to wait for someone then we need weighing balance if we have to measure the volume then we require the different volumetric cylinder we will require but for qualitative data we don't need such instruments like if we have to observe the color we can simply observe the colors so if we have to smell normally we can smell the material we will smell it and take its observation so if you have to suppose if you have to observe its observation then you smell it and take its observation because you can't measure the smell you can't measure the smell because the smell or the color observation is the qualitative data


Welcome back to my channel and welcome if you're new here. Thank you so much for clicking on today's video If you're new to my channel, make sure you're subscribed and your bells turned on so that you don't miss a single video We have lots of great content WW calorie tips and tricks on this channel So make sure you head over and join us today. We are going to talk about 14 tips on how to break a plateau This is a question that I get all the time. How do I break a weight loss plateau? So I'm going to share with you 14 tips today on how to do just that So again, make sure you're subscribed give this video a thumbs up if you love these tips and tricks And let's jump in to 14 ways to break a weight loss plateau Our weight loss journey our healthy lifestyle journey It is bound and determined that we are going to hit a plateau now This could be at the beginning of our journey It could be midway it could be at the very end But it is bound and determined to happen a lot of you reach out to me and ask me for my Suggestions my tips on how to break a plateau So I wanted to share with you guys some really easy maybe things that you didn't even think about tips on how to do just that So tip number one is cut back on the carbs Now we definitely need carbs in our diet in order to have a well-rounded weight loss healthy eating journey But if you are stalled, maybe you are overeating the carbs Take a look at your carbohydrate intake for the day and reduce it by 10 to 25 percent and see if that helps break your weight loss plateau If we are decreasing our carbs We're filling that gap with protein and protein is a well-known way to lose weight It's the one macro nutrient that is so important on any weight loss journey So if you are reducing your carbs and filling the gap with a little extra protein That should definitely help with that weight loss plateau Nexus change it up change up your exercise Frequency as well as the intensity our bodies get comfortable And if we're doing the same exercise routine or the same Exercises at the gym or the same classes at the gym over and over again after four to six weeks Our body gets used to it and we're not going to get the fat burn the metabolic increase We're not going to see the results from those exercises after that four to six week mark So it's important to change up the exercises that you're doing add additional weight add additional reps Completely take out one exercise and add in a new exercise Maybe try out a new class at your local gym one that you've never been to before now This doesn't mean that you can't continue to do your favorite exercises or the ones that you've seen success with Just change it up Take one away and add in something new or a couple away and add in a couple new and see if that really helps with that weight loss plateau Also, make sure that you are incorporating a resistance training program as well Make sure that you're lifting some weights taking advantage of the machines at your local gym Make sure that you are adding some strength training to your workout as well It's important to do cardio but it is even more important when it comes to reshaping and firming up and Breaking plateaus to add in some type of strength training research shows that people have a very large tendency to under Estimate what they're eating even under estimate what they're tracking you go ahead and you pour yourself a bowl of cereal Now did you weigh and measure that bowl of cereal or are you just eyeballing what looks like a cup to you? Chances are your eyeballs are deceiving you and you are eating more than you are tracking or that you are Assuming and thinking that you're eating so it's really important to honestly track literally everything every bite Lick or taste that goes into your mouth Nothing passes your lips that doesn't get into your tracker also taking a good look at tracking calories and macronutrients Can help break that plateau as well. Maybe you are eating way more carbs than you should maybe you're eating more sugar Maybe you're not getting in enough protein and fiber So double tracking or just tracking your calories and macros for a week or two is will give you valuable Insight into your weight loss journey and whether or not that is hindering your weight loss and causing you to plateau Just make sure that you're honestly tracking your food and literally everything that goes into your mouth Because we grossly underestimate what we're eating in fact There was a study that was done in 2010 that showed that people believed that they ate 1200 calories a day But when they actually tracked everything they ate it was at least double that so that will definitely not only cause a plateau What could even cause a little bit of a weight gain number four is don't skimp on the protein eat the protein my friend protein protein Protein like I mentioned that is the number one macro nutrient that contributes to weight loss Not only does protein keep you full and satisfied protein helps rebuild muscle and also boost Calorie burning 20 to 30 percent more than carbohydrates and fats the standard American diet should consist of about 30 to 35 percent Of your daily caloric intake of protein now for me you guys know that I follow Jordan science approach I'll go ahead and link Jordan's channel down below for you where I actually take my goal weight times point seven To determine my protein goal for the day now when I am tracking I am 100% looking at calories protein and points the other macro nutrients carbohydrates and fat or secondary to me I am all about hitting my protein goal because protein helps with muscle gain muscle recovery and helps keep you full and satisfied Number five is to manage your stress Stress can be a big factor in weight gain and also a big factor in preventing weight loss In addition to making us comfort eat or triggers food cravings It also ups the amount of cortisol that our body produces too much cortisol can make weight loss Extremely extremely difficult cortisol wants us to store fat tells our body to store fat Especially visceral fat like around our organs in our midsection. So by being extra stressed Increasing that cortisol can really put a damper on your weight loss So make sure that if you are feeling overly stressed out that you are doing things that help eliminate that stress taking deep breath Putting yourself in a happy place going on a walk exercise really helps reduce stress because it puts our mind on to other things Do whatever it takes for you to decrease that stress level Therefore decreasing cravings and decreasing the amount of cortisol that your body is producing Number six is trying intermittent fasting now We've all heard about intermittent fasting basically what this is in a nutshell is you allow yourself a set eating window in a day Say eight to ten hours the rest of the 24-hour period you are fasting, which means that you are not eating for me I don't implement intermittent fasting It's just not something that I've chosen to put into my lifestyle now am I saying I would never do that? No, but at this point I don't incorporate intermittent fasting However, it is proven to help break a weight loss plateau and the reason for that is by intermittent fasting and only having a set Eating window you generally consume less calories, which means that you're going to lose weight Also, it does help break a plateau because it gets your body into a frame of mind where it knows that it needs to burn through your Energy while you're fasting because it's a window of food intake is very very limited I recommend if you are interested in intermittent fasting that you definitely do some research You can just Google that and it'll come up with a ton of information And I also recommend that you consult your local physician to make sure that that is something that will work within your lifestyle Number seven you may not want to hear to be honest and that is avoiding alcohol Although one alcoholic beverage say a beer or a standard pour of wine contains only about a hundred calories There's zero nutritional value. So people tend to overdo the alcoholic beverages Also alcohol can loosen your inhibitions which can cause you to overeat or even make food choices That aren't the healthiest or maybe food choices that you wouldn't have chose if alcohol wasn't involved And what's more and probably even the biggest factor of alcohol is that it suppresses your body from burning fat And often leads to having a gut. You've heard the term bare belly. It is a real thing So besides the fact that alcohol doesn't have any nutritional value. It's pretty calorie dense It has about seven calories per gram, which is more than carbohydrates and protein It just really doesn't do a whole lot for your body on the positive side So if you find that you're in a plateau and that you're maybe even struggling to lose weight Try either cutting back or eliminating alcohol for a while and see if that helps Number eight is eat more fiber. We as Americans do not eat enough fiber It is a proven fact that our fiber consumption is far less than it should be This is especially true with fiber that dissolves in liquid what is also known as soluble fiber Soluble fiber slows down the digestion process and makes us feel a lot more full and satisfied for a longer period of time Although both soluble and insoluble fiber are beneficial for health It is proven that soluble fiber really does help keep us full and satisfied and contribute to better weight loss And also can help break a plateau when you up the amount of soluble fiber that you're consuming So an example is a study that was conducted where someone following in the standard American diet increased their fiber intake from 18 grams per day to over 30 grams per day and the result of increasing that fiber Led to a hundred and thirty calories less that the body absorbed from the meals that they ate throughout the day So fiber not only keeps you full and satisfied But also helps your body not absorb all of the calories that you're consuming and creating fat So definitely take a good hard look at the fiber that you're consuming daily and up that up that substantially and see if That helps number nine is focus your fluids on water coffee and tea try to avoid sugary beverages things such as regular pop even diet pop and diet drinks like the diet ices and the vitamin waters of the world Contained artificial sweeteners that your body really doesn't always know how to process and what to do with that can also lead you to crave real sugar And other sugary items so make your fluid intake focus number one on water black coffee and unsweetened tea coffee and tea both contain caffeine Which has shown to increase fat burning and boost your metabolic rate by up to 13% So caffeine isn't a bad thing in moderation and by drinking coffee and tea and having those be the basis of the fluids that you're taking Alongside water that little bit of caffeine will definitely have some health benefits And as we know green tea has a lot of health benefits There were some studies that were done that show that by consuming green tea It helps with fat burning up to 17 percent now whether this is true or not who knows There's conflicting information, but again by consuming a lot of water Moderation of coffee and tea you're going to see some benefits You're going to stay hydrated and by drinking water It fills our belly so that we're not wanting to lean towards food Number ten is spread your protein out throughout the day So it's not just all about how much protein you consume in a day It's when and how much per meal of protein you're consuming within the day Making sure that you're consuming protein with every meal allows your body to have TEF TEF stands for Thermic Effect of Food Which basically means that it increases your metabolism by consuming protein Also by consuming protein with every meal It's beneficial for weight loss as well as muscle retention So it's important to make sure that all of your meals breakfast lunch dinner and snacks all contain protein It is recommended that you consume at least 20 to 30 grams of protein per meal for your main three meals of the day And then fill the gaps in with snacks with your remaining protein your goal for the day And make sure that by the end of the day that you can check off whatever goal you've set for yourself as far as protein You can check that off and also be confident in knowing that you ate protein with every meal So if you're going to have crackers for a snack pair that with some type of protein like maybe a slice of cheese a cheese stick Some cottage cheese some yogurt you get the drift just make sure that you have protein with every meal Number 11 is get plenty of sleep It is so important that you are sleeping enough not only when you're in weight loss But also when you are at a plateau in fact not getting enough sleep is one of the leading Contributors of a stall in your weight loss not getting enough sleep can lower your metabolic rate and drive the hormones in your body That trigger us to be gravy and snacky into overeat one study shows that healthy adults who only slept four to five hours per night Actually decrease their resting metabolic rate by two point six percent So that means that you can eat less food and continue to maintain or lose weight So we don't want to make it so that our body has to have less food in order to be successful on our weight loss journey Or even on maintenance so to support weight loss and overall health You should aim for seven to eight hours of sleep per night Now in the event that you have a night or two that you're lacking in sleep Make sure that you're making that up within that same week so that your body can adjust and so you can keep your metabolism going and Maybe just maybe getting that little extra bit of sleep will break your weight loss plateau number 12 is be as active as Possible although working out is important There's a lot of factors throughout your day that can influence whether or not you lose weight maintain weight or get on a weight Loss plateau for example your metabolic rate increases with simple things that you do every day like Fidgeting getting up and down standing versus sitting walking around your house Just the movement of putting a load of laundry in the washer Transferring it to a dryer and then putting it away in the closet. This is known as neat which stands for non exercise activity thermogenesis or neat and E 80 so one study found taking neat into account that the average person's Metabolic rate increased by fifty four percent by sitting and fidgeting and a whopping 94% by standing and fidgeting one really simple way to increase your neat is to stand more than your sitting That's why they have things like standing desks and exercise ball chairs because that little bit of extra movement throughout the day Or just standing versus sitting will really help contribute to a higher neat another study found that someone who Stands versus sits the last few hours of their workday burned an additional 200 calories more than the person who sat at their desk that last few hours of their workday So really focused on increasing your non exercise daily activity spend a little extra time standing versus sitting and you're going to see some results Number 13 is eat veggies with every meal So this goes hand-in-hand with eating protein with every meal vegetables are the ideal food for weight loss They are generally low in calories and carbohydrates But they are high in fiber and the other nutrients that our body needs studies have shown that diets high in vegetables Definitely contributed to higher success of weight loss higher success of maintenance and less likely to be on a weight loss plateau So make sure that you're incorporating a little bit of edge with every single meal pop a little bit of spinach into your eggs Or your omelette for breakfast make sure that you're having a side of vegetables with lunch and dinner and maybe even Incorporating some vegetables into a snack some carrots with some dip or some hummus Just make sure that you're mindfully consuming vegetables with every meal and number 14 is my favorite My holy grail and that is do not rely on the scale alone Do not let that box dictate your life rather than weight loss your goal is actually fat loss Thank You Jordan Syed for reinforcing this. We are not on a weight loss journey. We are on a fat loss journey Our goal is to lose fat and when we lose fat We're going to see the scale decrease when you're working out regularly chances are you're gaining muscle Which is denser than fat and takes up less room in the body the myth surrounding muscle weighs more than fat is true Muscle does not weigh more than fat pound a muscle weighs the same as a pound of fat However, muscle is much more dense and takes up a lot less room in your body Therefore the more muscle you have not only the more calories you burn but the leaner you look and remember if the scale is not Moving chances are it could be the food that you're eating you could be retaining water You could have had a little bit of extra sodium and you could just be retaining water and that eventually within a day or two You should that dissipate and that number on the scale should move as women our dietary choices can greatly affect how much water Our body retains which can then greatly affect that number that we see on the scale So even though weighing yourself is important on a weight loss journey even when you're on a plateau It's not the be all end all make sure that you're checking how your body feels in your clothes taking your measurements Seek your visual body changing in the mirror those things those non-scale victories in my opinion are even more important than that number on The scale slow and steady with weight loss wins the race So don't be discouraged if that number is declining slowly or even staying the same for a while Remember there are other positive changes happening in your body that eventually you'll be able to see and that maybe you're even more Important than that number on the scale. So the bottom line weight loss is hard Losing weight losing fat is hard. It's frustrating. It makes you want to cry It makes you angry But the bottom line is if you stick with it you do the right thing you track your food you nourish your body Eventually the weight is going to come off calories in versus calories out You're going to see weight loss even when you're on a weight loss plateau by changing things up a little bit Maybe implementing some of these 14 tips that I shared with you eventually you will break the weight loss plateau You just have to be strong and hang in there and don't let it discourage you So hang in there my friends don't get discouraged Keep doing what you're doing make a few changes and I bet you'll see that scale move Thank you guys so much for hanging out with me today I hope that these 14 tips really helped you out I'll make sure that I type these tips out down in the description box so that you can copy and paste them Or print them out so that you have them handy when you're feeling frustrated on your weight loss plateau If you're new or you are not subscribed to my channel hit the little subscribe button That way you can be part of this amazing community here on YouTube I upload most days of the week and I share tons of tips and tricks with you So you don't want to miss out give this video a big thumbs up if these tips that I shared with you are Beneficial and helpful for you.
