False claims circulated that Temple was not a child, but a 30-year-old dwarf, due in part to her stocky body type. The rumor was so prevalent, especially in Europe, that the Vatican dispatched Father Silvio Massante to investigate whether she was indeed a child.
Here the Author exposes false rumors about the subject's identity. I believe his purpose was to make a counterargument to all of the myths.

Temple began her film career at the age of three in 1931. Two years later, she achieved international fame in Bright Eyes, a feature film designed specifically for her talents. She received a special Juvenile Academy Award in February 1935 for her outstanding contribution as a juvenile performer in motion pictures during 1934. Film hits such as Curly Top and Heidi followed year after year during the mid-to-late 1930s. Temple capitalized on licensed merchandise that featured her wholesome image; the merchandise included dolls, dishes, and clothing. Her box-office popularity waned as she reached adolescence.[1] She appeared in 29 films from the ages of 3 to 10 but in only 14 films from the ages of 14 to 21. Temple retired from film in 1950 at the age of 22.
This is a basic paragraph that almost consists of an opening, body, and closing that summarizes the career of Temple without much argument.
-
Most of the Shirley Temple films were inexpensively made at $200,000 or $300,000 apiece,
This statement is describing to the audience that in fact 300,000 was "inexpensive" in the 1930's.

Shirley Temple Black[note 1] (April 23, 1928 – February 10, 2014) was an American actress, singer, dancer, businesswoman, and diplomat who was Hollywood's number one box-office draw as a child actress from 1935 to 1938.
This here is a firm opening that gives a thorough background of the subject they are talking about. Sets the stage if you will.
-
Her mother encouraged Shirley to develop her singing, dancing, and acting talents, and in September 1931 enrolled her in Meglin's Dance School in Los Angeles.
This shows that the mom first proposed the idea of her child's stardom. It is as if the mom convinced her that was her path through life.

Very heavy opinion that states it's not so much the evil out to get them that's slowing their movement, but those who are stagnant in the process who make the slow progression.

The three major functions of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning are interrelated, especially with the need to provide thermal comfort and acceptable indoor air quality within reasonable installation, operation, and maintenance costs.
I believe that this statement is saying that the only way for it to be cost effective for installation and operation purposes is for all three systems to be integrated into one. The three systems of comfort being Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning.(HVAC)
-
HVAC is based on inventions and discoveries made by Nikolay Lvov, Michael Faraday, Rolla C. Carpenter, Willis Carrier, Edwin Ruud, Reuben Trane, James Joule, William Rankine, Sadi Carnot, and many others.
This sentence was an eye opener for me, because now I realize that almost all of the major brands of units out today are either named after people who invented, or made discoveries linked to technology in HVAC systems.

Heaters exist for various types of fuel, including solid fuels, liquids, and gases. Another type of heat source is electricity, normally heating ribbons composed of high resistance wire (see Nichrome).
In this description it states all of the various heat sources that fuel heaters. Typically, most people use gas or electricity to fuel their systems, but have no idea about the many options available to them.
-
The use of furnaces, space heaters, and boilers as a method of indoor heating could result in incomplete combustion and the emission of carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds, and other combustion byproducts. Incomplete combustion occurs when there is insufficient oxygen; the inputs are fuels containing various contaminants and the outputs are harmful byproducts, most dangerously carbon monoxide, which is a tasteless and odorless gas with serious adverse health effects.
This paragraph is telling us the possible harmful byproducts caused from the use of furnaces, space heaters, and boilers. Furthermore, it describes the cause of these byproducts is from the lack of oxygen. Which means the fuels are not fully and properly burning out, in what is called "incomplete combustion".
-
Ventilation often refers to the intentional delivery of the outside air to the building indoor environment. It is one of the most important factors for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in buildings.
Here it is describing how important ventilation is for the quality of air. It is the key element in keeping buildings air supply safe and admissible to be considered "acceptable".
-
Natural ventilation is the ventilation of a building with outside air without using fans or other mechanical systems. It can be via operable windows, louvers, or trickle vents when spaces are small and the architecture permits.
Basically, this is stating that the most simple and cheap way to ventilate a building or structure is with natural ventilation. This can be anything as easy as opening a window for draft, or even a small louver.
-
Natural ventilation is a key factor in reducing the spread of airborne illnesses such as tuberculosis, the common cold, influenza and meningitis.
During times like these it seems as if this can be the most important sentence in the whole article. It is saying that the main component to help reduce the spread of any and all airborne illnesses is using natural ventilation.
-
HVAC is an important part of residential structures such as single family homes, apartment buildings, hotels and senior living facilities, medium to large industrial and office buildings such as skyscrapers and hospitals, vehicles such as cars, trains, airplanes, ships and submarines, and in marine environments, where safe and healthy building conditions are regulated with respect to temperature and humidity, using fresh air from outdoors.
This paragraph is basically saying that HVAC is the cornerstone for thermal comfort in almost every structure or automotive vehicle. Using fresh air from outside it helps maintain comfortable and safe conditions in those types of environments.
-
Air conditioning and refrigeration are provided through the removal of heat. Heat can be removed through radiation, convection, or conduction. The heat transfer medium is a refrigeration system, such as water, air, ice, and chemicals are referred to as refrigerants.
I found this statement to be interesting as well, because people always think air conditioning works by strictly adding cool air to a room. When in fact it actually is the process of cycling and removing the heat from a room. This is done by sucking or extracting the warm air and recycling it into "conditioned" air.

An example of a geothermal heat pump that uses a body of water as the heat sink, is the system used by the Trump International Hotel and Tower in Chicago, Illinois. This building is situated on the Chicago River, and uses cold river water by pumping it into a recirculating cooling system, where heat exchangers transfer heat from the building into the water, and then the now-warmed water is pumped back into the Chicago River.
Here is a great example of how we are using the environment to heat/cool huge infrastructures while at the same time cutting down on energy usage and emissions. Using nature to help preserve the environment in a way.
