![]() It is shown here in its original color version. Opening Sequence In Color Though I was very familiar with the opening of the Mickey Mouse Club, I didn’t know it was originally made in color. They do a full musical number that appeared on live TV and is intercut with newly discovered colored footage of the performance. “Mousketeers At Disneyland” This is some rare vintage footage of the Mousketeers at the opening of Disneyland. It’s an interesting though brief look at their experiences. They talk about how they were cast, how they prepared for the acts, what they did when the show ended, Walt Disney, the fans, and more. “Mouske-Memories” A number of the original Mousketeers reminisce about the show. This video features home movies of him as well as additional vintage footage from the 50’s. He is discussed with a great deal of fondness and admiration. They talk about his early career, his work on the show, his personality, and his untimely death. “Leader Of The Club” (Jimmie Dodd Tribute) Some of the original Musketeers and Leonard Maltin pay tribute to Jimmie Dodd, one of the main creative forces behind the show. There are a few extras included on this DVD. I think young kids will get a kick out of this DVD as well as Mickey Mouse Club fans and those adults who grew up with the series. That leads me to believe that as dated as the material is, there’s still something here for young audiences today. He was infatuated by the cartoons, puppets, and music, but lost interest in the other segments. Many of the songs, acts, and other things on the show are vintage 1950’s as well.Īs a test, I set my 3 year old in front of the TV and played one of the episodes for him. When a comedian comes on the show at makes balloon animals in one episode, his jokes are quite dated as well. While that’s not politically correct today, it was acceptable in 1955. ![]() For example, a segment on careers focuses on being a pilot for boys and being a stewardess for girls. Walt Disney himself even voiced the mouse.Īs good as the format and content of the show was, it is a bit dated today. The vintage Mickey Mouse animation on the show was also a great treat. Lead Musketeer Jimmie Dodd was a great host for the show and had a lot of genuine enthusiasm that you rarely see these days. It is interesting to see a very young Annette Funicello on the show before she went on to bigger stardom. Then having a large cast of kids using their real names gave audiences a lot of choices of actors to identify with. One day was music day, the next guest appearance day, etc etc etc. Even in these first episodes they hit on a winning formula that worked for them. It was not only a pop culture phenomenon, but it was one of the earliest daily TV shows for kids. This show was landmark for a variety of reasons. Not only was it my first real exposure to the show, but it was the premiere week of it. I have vague memories of maybe seeing reruns, but the only thing I remembered clearly was the theme song and the intro that featured Donald Duck being blown up in a variety of ways each week. I can’t remember ever really watching The Mickey Mouse Club. So, sit back and enjoy - and you don’t have to wait until 5:00.” And you’ll meet six original Mouseketeers in a reunion on the soundstage where they first got together in 1955. You’ll also see recently discovered, never-before-seen color archival footage of the Mousketeers’ very first appearance at the grand opening celebration of Disneyland. Also showcased in this volume is a wonderful tribute to the unforgettable Jimmie Dodd, the singer-actor who hosted the show. ![]() ![]() This volume features the five episodes of week one of the black-and-white series that launched a television revolution. “”M-I-CK-E-YM-O-U-S-E.” Before the theme song’s memorable spelling became an audio icon, before the series even aired, the Mickey Mouse Club was the most anticipated children’s programming ever. This DVD features the first episodes of The Mickey Mouse Club that aired the week of October 3, 1955. “Leader Of The Club” (Jimmie Dodd Tribute) Julius Sumner Miller as Professor Wonderful

![]() The color of purple yams (which come from the natural pigment anthocyanin) can range from a light lavender to a deep purple. These donuts have a unique purple hue because they are infused with (surprise) ube, purple yams or tubers originally grown in the Philippines. In this guide, we will take a closer look at these unique donuts. Ube donuts, among other desserts containing the sweet purple yam, are some of the largest beneficiaries of this global culinary movement. To appease broadening palates, many gourmet donut shops have expanded their flavor offerings to include more flavors from different countries and their cuisines. Due to this expansive demand for doughnuts (more commonly spelled “donuts” in America), a wider spectrum of flavors has arisen, particularly in the 2010s as the rainbow colored food trend took off. However, the classic round doughnut is one of the most popular forms of fried dough throughout the world. Their sweet and subtle nutty flavors combined with a creamy mouthfeel make for many a return customer.įried dough has taken many forms in different cuisines, from Mexican churros to Italian zeppole. But it’s not just their looks that get people’s attention. ![]() With their vibrant purple hues, these donuts easily stand out from the crowd. Ube donuts (also ube doughnuts) have gained prominence as international flavors became more sought after and gourmet doughnuts have become more mainstream. For many, the thought of a purple donut is probably odd. While this doesn’t apply to every single 3/4 guitar that you might find when you are browsing the web, it is safe to say that they are frequently cheaper than their full-sized counterparts. However, if they are well built with quality materials, you will still have a great instrument to play.Įd Sheeran is famous worldwide and he almost only plays on 3/4 guitars because he likes their tone better, which comes to show that everything is subjective. In general, people tend to prefer guitars that have a fuller sound, more harmonic content and volume, and these are not traits that you frequently find on 3/4 guitars. You can expect 3/4 guitars to sound a little bit thinner due to their smaller body, and they might not be as loud as a regular sized guitar. ToneĪ combination of different properties like the ones we have just discussed produces a significantly different tone than what you generally get out of a normal guitar. There are even special string sets made for 3/4 guitars, which you should buy if you have one of these instruments. Strings are bent more easily, and you might end up doing that accidentally if you are used to regular guitars. The smaller body and shorter scale length account for a lower string tension than what you have on a normal sized guitar. They are usually anywhere between 20″ and 24″ while regular sized guitars have longer scale lengths, like 24.75″ or 25.5″. The scale length has to be shorter in a 3/4 guitar too, to compensate for the smaller body. These measurements make these guitars perfect as a kids acoustic guitar between the ages of 8 and 12 to start learning how to play the guitar, or they make for an excellent travel instrument due to the compact dimensions. A fully sized guitar will measure around 40×15 inches, while a 3/4 guitar measures 36×13 inches. Obviously, the biggest difference between a 3/4 and a regular guitar is their size. Main Features and Properties of 3/4 Guitars Size He says that he prefers the tone of the smaller body and thinks it suits his songs better than a normal guitar. One of the most famous examples is Ed Sheeran, who uses a 3/4 guitar most of the time he is playing. ![]() Taking it with me in a car or even an overhead bin on an airplane would also be far easier than with a regular sized guitar.Įven professional musicians use 3/4 guitars sometimes. It is a quality instrument in a reduced size that I would enjoy taking outside when going to the beach or the park. Personally, I would not buy a 1/4 or a 1/2 size for myself, but I could definitely see myself getting something like a Baby Taylor from Taylor Guitars. These are the general age recommendations for each guitar size. ![]() In summary, there are 4 main guitar sizes available on the market today: Taylor Baby Taylor Acoustic Guitar ( Guitar Center / Sweetwater) – Best Higher End Acoustic 3/4 Upgrade.Takamine GX18SENS Acoustic Guitar ( Guitar Center / Amazon) – Best 3/4 Acoustic Electric Guitar.Luna Safari Tattoo Acoustic Guitar ( Guitar Center / Musicians Friend) – Best Kids Aesthetic 3/4 Guitar.Martin LX1 Acoustic Guitar ( Guitar Center / Sweetwater) – Best Overall 3/4 Guitar.TL DR: If you are looking for the bottom line up front, these are my top picks… ![]() The tone of a 3/4 guitar is generally not as rich and full-bodied as a regular guitar’s, but that does not mean that there aren’t any great sounding ones either. This also affects the overall tuning stability. For instance, the string tension is substantially lower, which feels different while playing. Having a reduced size comes with a few other changes that you should be aware of if you are thinking of buying a 3/4 guitar. In any case, there are also adults who might buy a 3/4 guitar simply because they are more compact, making for an excellent travel instrument. The smaller size makes them more comfortable for them, and it makes learning how to play a much more enjoyable experience. Most of the time, 3/4 guitars are marketed toward children between the ages of 8 and 12. This guide will focus on 3/4 guitars, which as the name implies, are 25% smaller than the regular size guitar bodies that you are used to seeing everywhere. Aside from different body shapes that bring out different sounds from your instrument, there are also smaller guitar bodies that can be advantageous for several different reasons. ![]() Great! You know what you want, now you gotta go find it.I used to want goats, then I did my research, and yeah I probably will still have some someday, but it did not fit into my current goals. But it shapes what you decide to do, 100%. It brings a whole lot of stuff to the surface that you can either choose to work through, or work around. See what I mean about outlining a plan? Knowing that you want to raise alpaca fur or grow purple broccoli changes the landscape.Maybe you’re looking to do this part time and being that far away from your job just isn’t a commute that you’re willing to do. Do you have to move hundreds of miles away to find terrain and a market proximity that will let you run a pumpkin farm? (my personal dream). So this is what I’m getting at – yes you need a plan, but you need it not just to make the powers that be happy, but because it will show you where your heart lies.If you’re growing herbs you don’t need 10 acres and can save money buying 1-2 acres and still have a highly productive farm. If you want to grow goats, you’re going to have more flexibility than you would if you needed large pastures for cows. You’re gonna have to consider the types of things you really want to tackle.Those things very much dictate where you are going to be looking. Do you want to plant berries? What about fruit trees, lettuce, tomatoes? You’re going to need to know what you want to raise and plant (at least in the most general sense) because you need to know how much level land, mountainous land, wet land, dry land, rocky land you need and how much sunlight and water you’re going to need to be able to do the things you want to do. If you’re going the homestead route, or really any of these, you are gonna want to know ahead of time if you want livestock, for what purpose, and how much of it will meet your needs. If you’re going the farm route, the bank is going to want to see your business plan. So you’re going to roll your eyes at me a bit here either in a “duh Wendy” moment or an “excel spreadsheets” mentality moment, but in all my research the methods people use to figure out what they want in a homestead or a farm or ranch, all comes down to simply creating a plan.One mass produces, one produces enough – maybe with some surplus, along with some variety in the types of stuff it outputs. But you can see how there are a lot of overlapping gray areas, but that’s the generalized difference.A farm can provide all that as well, but it also includes that large scale commercial aspect. A homestead is your home, but it’s also where you happen to provide for your basic human needs like clothing, food, and shelter.A farm or ranch is a (hopefully) profitable way to produce crops or livestock and sell it commercially.What you’re looking at in any of these cases is a piece of property that contains your home, your land, and your land’s assets like water, wild animals, natural plants, crops, utilities, pastures, out buildings, and so on.What makes a farm/ranch, and what makes a homestead? ![]() Sometimes, I'm at loss as why some reviewers have such abnormal and illogical expectations from a series and decide to belittle and trash it at all cost, not feeling or not wanting to feel its vibe nor sense it. If you like a complex plot executed well by talented actors, then you will enjoy this show. There are more bad-guys than good guys in this one. Superficially anti-CIA, I think the story is more about moral relativism, and the evil that men do. There is no James Bond or Jason Bourne here, just people doing routine spy work and trying to cope with moral ramifications and amoral counterparts. The main spy story weaves its way through enough twists and turns to keep one interested, like a Le Carre spy novel, the angst and motivations of the main characters, and their regrets at past mistakes gives them the beat-down feeling of Smiley. Some of that is too 1,2,3 check off the box plot devices that just aren't adding anything to the story. Oh.she's in an interracial relationship, and he's having an affair with his secretary, and he's disgruntled and uses hookers because his kid back in the USA is disgruntled.etc. ![]() The weakest part of the show may be the somewhat contrived and clichéd nature of one or two of the backstories that are supposed to add depth to the characters. Even Homeland, which is similar in setting, seems very American, where this show just looks and feels different. The European setting gives the show a different feel from most American TV fare, and that in itself is very effective in making the show unique. There are a number of good performances in this show. The story has requisite twists and turns, a complex plot centered around the War on Terror and a Julian Assange style leaker who wrecks havoc with the American spy agency and it's relationship with it's counterparts from other countries. Berlin Station is a very John Le Carre type of spy story, but centered around the American CIA rather than the Brits.

![]() ![]() While completing the next “Ninja Assassination Wave”, research Giant Growth level 2. Research Shinobi level 1, train 5 Albatrosses and then research Shinobi level 2. Build 3 Juggerknights and 5 Spearton, as well as 10 Archidons and 5 Swordwraths. ![]() If you still have resources left, research Passive Income 3, buy a Ninja(another term the game uses for it is Shadowrath) and research Fire Arrows, in that order.īuild 2 more Magikill, research Electric Wall and train 2 Merics. Rebuild your army and assemble at the Centre Sword. Use your army to attack the enemy base, focusing on non-miners first, then miners, then the statue. Build 4 Speartons and send them to the Centre Sword. Research Castle Archer 1 and Passive Income 1 and 2, then research Shield Wall and Shield Bash. Pour 2 more Spearwraths, 2 more Archidons and a Spearton into your army, which should be still gathered at the Centre Sword. If you have a Meric AND you’re playing against Chaos, research Cure. Research Poison Spray if you have a Magikill. Now you have 4 worshippers and 6 harvesters. You’ll need a lot of resources, so build 4 more miners and set 2 to Gold and 2 to Mana. Now you need to upgrade your technology to build more powerful units. When you finish buiding your magic unit, move on to the next stage. If you’re playing against a Chaos opponent or another rusher, build a Meric. If he actually wins the battle, quickly rush Swordwraths and hope to overwhelm him. Any troops lost should be replaced immediately. Fire Arrows cost resources better spent int building units, and casting Fire Arrow costs Mana better spent in building your magic units. Train 5 Archidons and move them to the centre sword.It may be tempting to train Fire Arrows and attack the enemy base from afar, but resist the tempation to do so. If you have the resources, consider researching Rage so the Swordwrath can really lay waste to the enemy miners. If the enemy has a lot of miners and he rushes them at you, kill one of them then run. The moment those units walk out of the gates, immediately retreat and regroup at the centre sword. It is very irritating to lose miners to an early rush so the enemy will usually build some units to fend you off. If the first Swordwrath gets through(because the enemy was focusing on Miners), have him attack Miners. If at any point the first Swordwrath encounters enemy troops, immediately retreat and regroup with the rest of the Swordwraths. Send the first built Swordwrath to the enemy base and the rest to the sword in the centre. If you run out of Gold, simply wait for the miners to harvest more. The moment you have 6 miners, move on to the next stage. Once you hit 6 miners, set 2 of them to worshipping to build up mana. ![]() I suggest building as many miners as you can, setting all of them to harvesting Gold. It can build walls to fend off the enemy, worship the Statue to get Mana(which is used as a pool that can be used to build units and use abilities), or mine Gold Mines to get Gold(which is used to build units). The Miner is your resource harvesting unit. I’ll be focusing on Order since I don’t want to pay four bucks so I don’t play Chaos.īasically, the flow of the game goes as follows: It’s harder to play because it can’t be rushed. There are exceptions, like the Ninja(although it can be argued the Ninja is the biggest DPS in the game) or the Albatross, but that’s basically how it goes.Ĭhaos is all poison and status effects, and is mostly damage, whether pure damage or long-term poison harassment. Order is basically divided into 3 sections:Troops that heal, troops that can be rushed easily and troops that do big-ass DPS. I don’t like the fact that they’re trying to wheedle money from us, but most of the players use Order anyway. For Chaos, you have to pay $4 per month to use it. The sign up is about 2-3 minutes long, including verification of email(one of the only bad things about it is you have to verify your email).

Unselected, playback begins at the insertion point, the playback cursor moves away to the right as the audio plays, and when you press Stop, it returns to the insertion point. The Insertion Follows Playback button changes the playback behaviour between two states. Some people find it helpful to consider the insertion point as an edit selection with no length, so that the edit selection in and out points are in the same place. Playback will start from this point, and you will see a solid line which moves away from the insertion point as playback continues. If you click in the timeline without dragging, you create an insertion point, which looks like a blinking vertical line across the selected track. You will also find the equivalent information for the timeline selection in the Transport window. To go into more detail, if you look in the toolbar display in the Edit window you will see a large display of the current position of the playback cursor and to the right of that, the start, end and length of the edit selection. Now when you hit Play, Pro Tools will pick up from the point where you stopped. If the button is blue then this mode is enabled, and the cursor will stay at the point where you hit Stop. Most of the users I know work with Pro Tools with the Insertion Follow Playback disabled, so that the cursor jumps back to where you started to play from. Which of these happens depends on whether Insertion Follows Playback is enabled. Either the playback cursor will stay where it was when the transport was stopped, or it will jump back to where it was when playback started. Many ‘problems’ with Pro Tools can be traced to users accidentally hitting one of these buttons below the main Edit tool selection.When you hit Stop in Pro Tools, one of two things will happen. In my experience, one of the things many Pro Tools users find confusing is the way playback behaviour can mysteriously change so that playback starts from an unexpected place on the timeline. The two rightmost buttons have names that can seem slightly cryptic: Insertion Follows Playback and Link Timeline and Edit Selection. So, this month, I’m going to explain exactly what each of these buttons does, what symptoms you’ll experience if you enable them by accident, and which button to press to get things back to normal! Keep Following ![]() It’s then that Pro Tools starts to behave oddly for no apparent reason. These buttons are very useful, but can easily get clicked on by mistake when you are actually aiming for the main tools above. The most common of these relate to a block of buttons under the main tool set where you select the Trim tool, Selector, Grabber and so on. Have you ever found that Pro Tools has started behaving strangely, and you have no idea why? In my time providing 24/7 Pro Tools support there were a number of problems of this sort that came up over and over again, and usually, they could be traced to features having been enabled unintentionally. Pro Tools acting funny? Chances are you’ve just changed playback mode by accident. |
