![]() (Likewise, when “Elementary, My Dear” taught counting by twos with a gospel-style Noah’s Ark song, it didn’t fear repercussions for bringing religion into kids’ TV.)Īnd that’s before you even get to “Science Rock.” “The Energy Blues” makes a matter-of-fact pitch for conservation that would cause smoke eruptions today. “The Great American Melting Pot” did not imagine a future president telling asylum seekers, “Our country is full.” When “Interjections” depicted a doctor giving a child a shot, it did not anticipate legislators denouncing Big Bird for advocating childhood vaccination. Today, with culture-warring politicians like the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, red-penciling school curriculums, weaponizing pronouns and hammering history teachers for “indoctrination,” the potential land mines add up. Now he’s a time traveler, from a pre-Reagan age when government activism, however imperfect, was considered a force for good. The America of “Schoolhouse Rock” was divided by Vietnam and Watergate, but it could at least subscribe to basic common facts and civic principles.Ĭonsider Bill, the underdog paper hero of “I’m Just a Bill,” longing to become a law that would keep that cartoon school bus safe at railroad crossings. ![]() But to screen “Schoolhouse Rock” as an adult is to visit a different period in cultural history, and not just because of the bell-bottoms. Rewatching the series taught me about a new subject: Time. (You can now stream the ’70s seasons, plus a brief 1980s series about computers and a clunky 1990s revival, “Money Rock,” through Disney+.) When my kids were school-aged, I got the full “Schoolhouse Rock” DVD set for them, which is to say, I got it for me. The following seasons, about grammar, American history and science, added other contributors, including Lynn Ahrens, the future Broadway songwriter thanks to whom an entire generation cannot recite the preamble to the Constitution without breaking into song. (If your voice does not break singing, “A man and a woman had a little baby,” you’re doing something wrong.) The blissful “Three Is a Magic Number” isn’t just a primer on multiples it’s a rumination on the triad foundations of the universe, from geometry to love. The lyrics were sly and funny but could also detour, like a fidgety schoolkid sitting by the window, into daydreams. The jazz composer Bob Dorough wrote the banger-filled first season, “Multiplication Rock,” surveying a range of styles from the duodecimal prog-rock of “Little Twelvetoes” to the spiraling lullaby of “Figure Eight.” Above all, there was the sophisticated music. That was the animation, psychedelically colorful and chock-full of rapid-fire slapstick gags. The facts and figures made it educational. ![]() Unlike the dutiful news interstitials that vitamin-fortified other Saturday-morning cartoon lineups, “Schoolhouse Rock” harnessed the power of comedy and ear worms. “I think you should buy it right away,” Jones said. Nostalgia for “Schoolhouse Rock” is now itself old enough to be nostalgic for.Īs Newell told the Times in 1994, they pitched the idea to Michael Eisner, then the director of children’s programming at ABC, who happened to be meeting with the legendary Looney Tunes animator Chuck Jones. Winona Ryder and company crooned “Conjunction Junction” and “I’m Just a Bill” in the 1994 generational-statement film “Reality Bites.” De La Soul borrowed “Three Is a Magic Number” as the backbone for their buoyant self-introduction, “The Magic Number,” in 1989. The musical shorts, which began airing on ABC in 1973, taught Generation X multiplication, grammar, history and, eventually, nostalgia. If you were an American kid around when I was (nineteen-seventy- cough), you probably have “Schoolhouse Rock” hard-wired into your brain too. It was not the last time that watching too much TV would pay off for me, but it was perhaps the sweetest. I’d like to credit hard work or the motivation of those golden fries, but in truth it was easy. When I was in second grade, my teacher held a contest: The first students to memorize their multiplication tables would get dinner at McDonald’s.

Horizon Hobby's RealFlight (formerly Great Planes RealFlight) is certainly highly regarded as one of best simulators on the market for all aspects of RC flying. I really have no idea why, but it's a fun little bonus.īest Of the Rest. It's also the only RC flight simulator here in the entire list that has a couple RC truck/buggies for track racing simulation as well as RC aircraft simulation.

The RC helicopter list included in this RC heli simulator is impressive with electric, turbine, nitro, old school flybars, flybarless, monster to micro, sport to scale. Different cable adapters for different radios are also available at very reasonable costs (all are under $15 bucks). Out of the box it supports FrSky, Spektrum, & JR radios with the 3.5mm training ports.

Last up is how you get the RC helicopter simulator software. All brands listed here have downloads direct from their sites or distributor sites, which is by far the most popular method. My prediction with more and more radio's using "wireless" training connectivity & Bluetooth programming, there will also be a growing number of wireless RC simulator connectivity options as well in the near future, so keep an eye out for that. The good RC helicopter simulator programs come with either a gutted out USB adapted RC transmitter that plugs into a USB port on your computer, or comes with a USB/DIN converter cable to plug directly into your own quality RC transmitter via the trainer input port. In the case of learning to fly an RC helicopter, this relates to the ultra fine control of our thumbs &/or forefingers, and thus we need to use the exact same controls we would in real life if we want to learn these necessary "subconscious" skills. You know, learning something to the point you don't even have to think about what you are doing in order to do it, like walking or riding a bicycle. This is known as subconscious memory, or muscle memory. The main reason for this is anytime we are learning a new task, we need to build new pathways in our brains to control our motor functions. ![]() The only way to learn to fly with an RC helicopter simulator is by using a real (or at least gutted out) RC transmitter/radio.

![]() If you stumble, you will break your ankle. "It creates a tall, statuesque, almost ideal elegance," Talley says, but also comes with an element of risk-which, mastered, further differentiates them from the average woman. Jennifer Lawrence called them "Satan's shoes." Kristin Stewart wears Chucks with her gowns, and Miley Cyrus sings in "Party in the U.S.A:" "All I see are stilettos/I guess I never got the memo." Actresses and critics alike went ballistic in 2015 when the organizers of the Cannes Film Festival reportedly decreed that women could not walk the red carpet in flats.īut Talley believes the Trump women favor high heels because they were trained young in the "rigor" of wearing them-and because they look good. Talley admitted that the stiletto pump is "not a trending shoe" nor is it "the shoe of choice for most women." Younger women in the public eye sometimes say they have sworn off heels. Toes pointed like ballerinas in them, they stroll from the tarmac to the Wailing Wall, cross the spongy White House lawn to Marine One, click around the halls of Congress and ascend rickety risers at "MAGA" rallies in Youngstown. So sure are they of their footing that the Trump women, rare political mountain goats, never even look down for obstacles that might break up their gait or send them sprawling. Or Jennifer Lawrence tripping up the steps to receive her Oscar. Remember Naomi Campbell's famous runway spill. Stiletto pumps demand a critical level of attention to pebbles, cobbles, sidewalk cracks, mud, grass, curbs and stairs-all while keeping head erect and shoulders back-that has sometimes eluded even the greatest public females. Her nuggets of advice include: "Your first assignment when walking in heels is to find a straight line and follow it," and "For every step you take, you need to have a general awareness of where your heel is being placed." Michelle Phan's "How to Master the High Heel" tutorial has received millions of views. The internet and YouTube are rife with tutorials on how to bear the pain (bandages, gel inserts, baby powder) and walk gracefully in them. "I am not gonna say Melania is gonna have them soon, but sooner or later she is going have to come down off that high arch." "As you get older in these shoes, your feet are going to have problems," Talley says. The stiletto is a podiatrist's dream, or nightmare, depending on your point of view, because devoted wearers ultimately require medical attention. (Talley says Melania picked up 22 pairs of Manolos in various colors before decamping to the White House last month.) The Cinderella shoe fitted on the feet of all the Miss Teen USA's and Miss Universes who ever beamed under the Trumpian gaze in contests of yore also is the shoe that average women can bear for only a few hours at weddings or proms, before casting them off, moaning and rubbing their soles.įormer Vogue editor Andre Leon Talley, a longtime friend of Melania Trump's, believes that, other than the White House Easter Egg hunt on the lawn, Melania has not been photographed as first lady without her feet arched into one of two brands of towering high-heeled shoes that she favors, Manolo Blahniks or the 4.5-inch-heeled Oh So Kate by Christian Louboutin. ![]() Six months in, and the Trump women are well on their way to normalizing the footwear of the beauty pageant. In fact, the female consorts of the Leader of the Free World do not set foot in public without first molding their arches into the supranatural curve that Mattel toy designers once devised for Barbie's plastic feet. The vertiginous spike-heel shoe is not currently in fashion, but for Ivana, Ivanka, Melania and the Trump daughters-in-law, Carrie Bradshaw's shoe of choice never went out of style. This hiatus allows us to reflect on a minor Trumpian trend to which the nation has become accustomed since January: the ubiquitous stiletto pump. Given the dearth of photographic evidence otherwise, perhaps they have finally been able to put their feet up. But the women in the Trump clan seem to have been able to kick back. ![]() There's been no rest for the wicked just a week into President Donald Trump's 17-day vacation, what with our late-summer flirtation with nuclear war. ![]() Sub-master keys can be useful in organizations with multiple buildings, departments or areas that require varying levels of access. These keys offer an intermediate level of access control between the master key and change keys, granting authorized individuals access to multiple locks within their designated area while limiting access to other parts of the building. Sub-master keys are designed to provide access to a subset of locks within the system, typically within a specific building, department or area. ![]() In addition to the master key and change keys, another key variant in a master key system is the sub-master key, sometimes referred to as a differ key. Key 4AA will not open any other door in the master key system. Likewise, key 4AA is for the linen company, their key will only open one door so they can replace the linens. They will only be able to get through these doors to do exactly what they need to do without being able to access any other space in the facility. Key 3AA is for the gas company, they can access the gas storage outside the building, but also the main door and gas storage room inside the building. In the master key system sample above, change keys are the keys that fall under a master key and open specific doors. Each change key is used to open a specific door or set of doors depending on how access needs to be granted throughout the property. The delivery companies would have a copy of the change key for the delivery entrance but that key won't open any other doors on the property. For instance, a door that is used only for delivery personnel to drop off packages, would use a change key. Master key systems adapt to the evolving needs of the business, ensuring long-term effectiveness.Ĭhange keys are the keys that grant access to specific openings throughout the property. This flexibility allows for the addition or removal of locks, rekeying existing locks, or creating sub-master keys for different departments or sections. As the company grows or changes, the system can be easily modified to accommodate new access requirements. Additionally, in emergency situations, authorized personnel can quickly access necessary areas without searching for specific keys.įlexibility and Scalability: Master key systems are highly flexible and scalable, making them an ideal solution for businesses. This not only saves time but also reduces the risk of key loss or duplication. Instead of carrying multiple keys, employees can use a single key to access designated areas, simplifying key management. This heightened level of security contributes to the overall safety and protection of the business.Ĭonvenience and Efficiency: Master key systems offer unparalleled convenience and operational efficiency for businesses. By implementing a master key system with locks containing key cylinders, organizations can control access to different areas within their property, preventing unauthorized entry and safeguarding valuable assets. Enhanced Security: One of the primary reasons businesses choose master key system solutions is the enhanced security they provide. ![]() moreġ.6K 66.1K 1 post / quarter DA 26 Get Email Contact 10.

The player who asks must already hold at least one card of the requested rank, so I must hold at least one jack to say this. For example, if it is my turn I might say: 'Mary, please give me your jacks'. A turn consists of asking a specific player for a specific rank. The remaining cards are placed face down to form a stock. The dealer deals 5 cards to each player (7 each for 2 players). ![]() Go Fish is best for 3-6 players, but it is possible for 2 to play. This game is often just known as Fish, but the name "Fish" (or Canadian Fish or Russian Fish) is also sometimes used for the more complex partnership game Literature. I do not know whether these games were based on an earlier game played with standard cards, or whether the adaptation to use a standard pack came later. In the USA, the game of Dr Busby, also based on families, was first published in 1843, followed by Authors in 1861. In Britain there was Spade the Gardener, in which players collect families of five cards, later superseded by Happy Families, in which each family consists of four cards (mother, father, son, daughter). So far as I know, games of this type first appeared in the mid 19th century and were played with special cards. The basic idea is very simple and they are often thought of as children's games.
