When I use iSeries Navigator's Script Center to create a table, its default authority is *CHANGE. That is correct, looking at the system value QCRTAUT.

The idea here is not for Wayfarer wearers to show how cool (or hot) they are; rather, the shades are geared toward athletes. If they get too far above 98.6 degrees, an alarm goes off -- a reminder that it's time to gulp more H2O. Wireless technology helps make it all happen. The Yalie says the same technology can be used to help "read" a woman's fertility.
