![]() ![]() Though it was easy to draw comparisons between Betty Boop and Bow, the character was more directly inspired by another Roaring '20s performer. A-8 of the Hollywood on Parade series of short films that debuted in 1933, Bow's real-life husband, Rex Bell, tells Eddie Borden to stop hitting on a wax figure of his wife and say hello to a real-life version of Betty Boop played by Bonnie Poe, who also provided the voice for the character in film and on the radio between 19. As such, it has long been said that Clara Bow, one of the first Hollywood "It" Girls who embodied the spirit of the 1920s and the flapper lifestyle on the silver screen, inspired the character of Betty Boop. Her short hair, short skirts and bubbly attitude helped keep the carefree decadence of the previous decade alive as the United States was in the midst of the Great Depression. That could be because Betty Boop was really a product of the Roaring '20s. However, Betty Boop still resembled a woman, which was unique at a time when the majority of animated characters were based on animals. As such, she was made to sort of look like a canine with floppy ears and jowls. ![]() Betty Boop was originally meant to be a love interest for the popular Fleischer Studios animated dog Bimbo. In a sense, figuring out who exactly is the real Betty Boop is a more complicated task than these early lighthearted animated shorts would suggest. In fact, Betty Boop's identity has been connected to a few different women in show business in the 1920s. Fleischer Studios drew upon real-life inspiration when it created the character of Betty Boop in 1930. There's no doubt that Betty Boop has become an icon in her own right over the years, but she wasn't necessarily the originator of the qualities that made her famous. That's probably thanks in part to the sheer licensing power of the character, appearing on everything today, from clothing to car mats to cell phone cases to my personal favorite, a book titled "How to be a Betty: The Ultimate Guide to Unleashing Your Inner Boop!" The character has also occasionally popped up onscreen in recent years, making a cameo in 1988's Who Framed Roger Rabbit and having a new animated feature in development with Simon Cowell's Syco Entertainment and Animal Logic. 9, 1930 as part of Fleischer Studios' Talkartoons series. Betty Boop is still recognizable 85 years after her debut in the Dizzy Dishes cartoon that premiered on Aug. That curly black hair, those big green eyes, that little red dress. She is, however, mentioned in many documentaries and books about the Harlem Renaissance, and her legendary way of singing does live on in the iconic Betty Boop character.Some of the information is Boop-Oop-a-Dooping full of SPOILERS. During her entire career, she was mostly only known locally in the New York City area, and she reportedly died at a very young age. In fact, she never even really achieved mainstream success. Meanwhile, the very woman who inspired the character, Baby Esther, was never compensated in any way. It's estimated that the Betty Boop franchise generated millions of dollars in revenue from televison networks and sales of merchandise. ![]() But soon after, she was transformed into a white woman and remained so until her character was finally retired. She appeared in at least one animated scene in the popular Popeye The Sailor Man series. Initially, Betty Boop was shown in cartoons as an African American woman. That very same style was heavily imitated by the Betty Boop animated character. Her stage name was "Baby Esther", but unfortunately, when her character become the first and most famous sex symbol in animation she was whitewashed with most people having no idea where the original inspiration came from.īaby Esther had a popular cabaret act at the infamous Cotton Club in Harlem, New York where she sang with a unique vocal style that featured “boop-boop-a-doops” and other similar scat sounds. PBS has confirmed that Betty Boop, the popular cartoon character introduced to the world by cartoonist Max Fleischer in 1930, was actually inspired by a real-life African American jazz singer and entertainer from Harlem named Esther Jones. ![]()

This could be enough to destroy the transistor.īy adding the diode, the current through the inductor can die away gradually (by flowing through the diode).

Sid Meiers Civilization: Beyond Earth – AMD DX & Mantle Versus NVIDIA DXĬivilization is without a doubt one of the most successful strategy games ever released and chances are you are anticipating the release of Civilization: Beyond Earth this week. Civilization: Beyond Earth reimagines the expansive franchise in a new sci-fi setting where you are part of an expedition sent to find a home beyond Earth. This means you get to explore and colonize an alien planets to create a new civilization in space. Check out the Civilization: Beyond Earth intro cinematic below. ![]() If you liked Civilization V you will most likely be a fan of Beyond Earth as it uses the same game engine and mechanics. The similarities pretty much stop there though as Beyond Earth has new units, new victories, a completely new tech tree, new leaders, new civilizations and a handful of things under the hood that are also brand spanking new. ![]() One of those features is that Firaxis Games became a development partner with AMD and us using the Mantle API for this game title. In April 2014 Fireaxis made the following statement about Mantle:īy reducing the CPU cost of rendering, Mantle will result in higher frame rates on CPU-limited systems. As a result, players with high-end GPUs will have a much crisper and smoother experience than they had before, because their machines will no longer be held back by the CPU. On GPU-limited systems, performance may not improve, but there will still be a considerable drop in power consumption. This is particularly important given that many of these systems are laptops and tablets. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Simple, lightweight, super useful, responsive developer Thank you for your ongoing enthusiasm and feedback. I'm writing this "What's New" on the eve of PopClip's 12th birthday. See post: "About PopClip compatibility with JetBrains IDEs" on the PopClip Forum () for more information.

The app also has a bug that the developer has known about for nearly four months but failed to fix.Īfter copying and pasting a huge block of text, within seconds CPU usage climbs to 99+% and the fans start racing. I’ve suggested a preference for making the menu appear above or below the highlighted text, but that wasn’t implemented so I’m forced to pause frequently. Maybe that’s not really making a difference at all, but at least it seems like I’m making it work by highlighting it faster.Īnd quite often when it does activate, its menu covers up something I need to click and I have to stop and wait a few seconds for the menu to disappear before I can continue. It doesn’t seem to like when things are highlighted slowly so it do it fast and then it works (sometimes). It often takes several tries at highlighting something before PopClip activates. So it should be priced at half-off until it works 100%. Unfortunately that’s only about half the time (as another reviewer has also stated). When it works correctly it’s a very helpful app. ![]() ![]() ![]() Apple Photos also has a feature called Memories, which is essentially also a collection of albums that it pulls together automatically to help you remember past adventures. #7 Go Beyond the Default AlbumsĪpple Photos starts everyone off with a set of default library albums – All Photos, Favorites, People, Places, Videos, Selfies, Bursts, Live Photos, Screenshots, Animated, and Recently Deleted. You can create these types of “hard” albums on any device, and they show up in the cloud too, which makes it easy to organize with them on the go. You can put one photo in multiple albums, which is great if you have photos from an event and you’d like to organize by people or share with someone else, etc. The regular Albums are exactly what they sound like – a group of photos with a cute cover that you name. But that’s OK because those are pretty great too. Unfortunately, these types of albums are not available on mobile devices or in the cloud, so you’re stuck with regular albums on your smartphone. They pull photos together based on metadata that you specify (like dates, people, locations, tags, names, etc) and they come in handy when you’re organizing on the desktop app. Smart Albums are custom albums based on saved searches. There are two types of albums in Apple Photos: Smart Albums, and regular Albums. A great way to do that is by creating albums. But deleting always works, so take full advantage of that even if you optimize!Įven if you prefer using the Apple Photos app on your iMac or MacBook Pro, you can organize on the go using just the app. Those are more than enough to view, but since they’re not the full-resolution originals, you can’t really do that much with them outside of Apple Photos. If you use iCloud Photo Library, your photos will all be stored in the cloud, plus on any devices that have the “download and keep originals” options activated in the settings.Īny device that is optimized for storage will only have smaller resolution thumbnails. #4 It Doesn’t Necessarily Back Them UpĪnytime you use a syncing service, you’re basically accessing the same photo through multiple devices, and anything you do on one device will reflect on all the other ones. If you lose your phone, then yes, you’re technically backed up (because you can just sync another device to iCloud), but if you delete, you’re not. I usually tell my clients to memorize the phrase “ if you delete here, you delete there ,” because so often it gets confusing about what is stored where. ![]() It’s designed to look the same on all devices so that you always have what you need right at your fingertips.īecause of this, you cannot delete a photo on one device and expect it to stay on others. Something to keep in mind is that iCloud is a syncing service. Tip: You can also use the Moments view to quickly add entire groups of photos to albums. Or you can delete in bulk by using the select feature. From the Moments view, you can either click on a single photo to enlarge it, view it, and delete it. It’s a tiered setup that allows you to see different overviews of your library. To get there, click on Photos in the bottom menu, then on any photo to go into the Collections view, and then on any other photo to get to the Moments view. You can quickly delete photos and videos in the Photos app from the Moments view. If you do nothing else to organize your photos, start doing this. Deleting photos and videos that you don’t need helps free up space on your device and actually curate your library to become manageable. It’s OK to be selective in your photo life. There are two big parts to the process that you can easily accomplish with the app:Īs someone who organizes for a living, I can tell you that the most underutilized feature on any device is actually the delete button. With the Photos app and iCloud, you can organize quite a lot on the go. If you also enable Apple’s cloud storage system iCloud Photo Library, you can sync, share, and transfer photos to other devices and users very easily. It groups photos by date and time taken, and it uses geo-tags and facial recognition to enhance your viewing experience. It’s available for free on any iOS device, and it automatically imports media from your camera roll to let you view, search, and edit all your memories in style. ![]() Apple Photos is a great option for those looking for a low-maintenance system that doesn’t require a whole lot of upkeep once the initial setup is done. ![]() ![]() ![]() # open a file named "f1.txt" in write mode In this method, we use the writelines() method to write each item in the list to the file.
