How much is a unit of blood? Brookhaven National Laboratory explains that within one unit of blood there are several components, including red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma, platelets and cryoprecipitate.

Gene Kelly was married three times during his life. His first wife was Betsy Blair (December 11, 1923 â March 13, 2009). She was an aspiring actress/dancer from New Jersey who met Gene in 1940 when she was a day early for a night club audition.
Ironically, it turned out that Kelly had children before her ex-husband. She and second husband Brunt, 43, an internet security executive-turned-writer, married on Long Island, NY, in March, 2008 after being set up on a blind date in Washington. The couple had their first son, Yates, the following year.
