But that devotion is not an easy thing to stick to in the Midwest where, chances are, you associate that type of music with the greasers at the drive-in who love to vamp on longhairs and inevitably wind up becoming cops. After the Commander Cody band formed, according to a 1970 profile by Ed Ward in Rolling Stone, “Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen have devoted themselves body and soul to country music and old-time rock and roll. “I asked him once how he did it, and he said he just played the left-hand figures nonstop all day for about a year, until it became second nature,” the guitarist said.īorn in Boise, Idaho in 1944, Frayne was raised in the Long Island area before attending the University of Michigan, where he received a master of fine arts degree in painting and sculpture the same year the Lost Planet Airmen assembled.įrayne’s first Ann Arbor band was the Fantastic Surfing Beavers, with a different frontman. Malachowski pointed out the complicated nature of a piano playing style that required different rhythms and even speeds for left-hand and right-hand parts. “The Commander I knew was a music-history buff, fine-arts scholar and one of the sharpest minds I’ve ever encountered,” David Malachowski, a guitarist who joined Commander Cody’s band in the late ’90s, told the Times Union, a newspaper in Frayne’s final hometown, Saratoga Springs. Country music is easy to do if someone knows the lyrics and the song, you can follow along relatively easily.”īut, comments like that notwithstanding, Frayne was a serious musician, whose foremost influence as a pianist was Fats Domino. What country music afforded for us was there was no rehearsal we listened to the record, we drank a bunch of whiskey and coke, and played. I started listening to Jerry Lee Lewis’ album that had ‘Crazy Arms’ and Buck Owens’ greatest hits. “I’m pretty sure those guys were stoned most of the time. “In about 1966 I found a Bob Wills album and marijuana,” Frayne said in an interview with No Depression in 2018. Why did there have to be a Commander Cody? That’s a long story in itself.īut, of course, there was little sense sci-fi in the music itself… although there was a lot of weed. I had no idea anyone was going to have to be Commander Cody. Then later, this character Commander Cody made three movies, one of which was ‘Lost Planet Airmen.’ I was watching the Lost Planet Airmen movie and I saw the Commander Cody character and I thought it would be a great name for a band. In 1948, 1949, Flash Gordon like operations would run in theaters in between films. He told the website about the origins of the group’s name, saying they got it from “the same place that George Lucas got it: from Republic Pictures. After the original group’s breakup in 1976, Frayne continued to record and tour under the name Commander Cody until shortly before the pandemic kicked in. The sounds of rockabilly, Western swing, jump blues, jazz and boogie-woogie piano figured into the band’s free-wheeling style as readily as country, finding enthusiastic fans among followers of rock groups like the Grateful Dead, for whom Commander Cody sometimes opened, as well as devotees of more traditional music forms.Īlthough it took until 1971 for their major-label debut, “Lost in the Ozone,” to be released, the group actually formed in 1967 in Ann Arbor, Michigan, going against the tide of the psychedelia that was peaking along with the flower-power movement in favor of sounds that dipped deep into the supposedly squarer music of decades past, like Western swing pioneer Bob Wills.Ĭommander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen released seven albums on the Paramount and Warner Bros. Now add to the list and let us all know your favorites.Although the group’s style was often described in its early days as country-rock, the Bay Area-based band had a harder-driving style - and, as its sci-fi-serial-based name would indicate, more of a sense of humor - than other country-influenced artists coming along at the time down in Los Angeles, like the Eagles or Poco. "The Little Old Lady From Pasadena" by Jan & Dean "The Ballad of Thunder Road" by Robert Mitchum (yeah, the actor) "She Rides With Me" by Paul Petersen (my wife has a story about Paul Petersen) "The Scavenger" by Dick Dale & His Del-Tones "Little Honda" by The Hondells (OK.it's a motorcycle) "King Of The Wheels" by The Bobby Fuller Four How many of these do you remember and what's your favorite? Feel free to hum along. I picked up a 3-cd set several years ago titled "Legendary Hot Rod Hits" and it brought back sooo many memories from the glory days of muscle cars and cruisin' Whittier Blvd.

Gonzaga University houses a large collection of photographs, correspondence, and other material related to Crosby. The university granted him an honorary doctorate in 1937. As a freshman, he played on the university's baseball team. He attended Gonzaga for three years but did not earn a degree. Ĭrosby graduated from Gonzaga High School in 1920 and enrolled at Gonzaga University. He later described Jolson's delivery as "electric". In 1917, Crosby took a summer job as property boy at Spokane's Auditorium, where he witnessed some of the acts of the day, including Al Jolson, who held him spellbound with ad-libbing and parodies of Hawaiian songs. Through another line, also on his father's side, Crosby is descended from Mayflower passenger William Brewster ( c. His father was of Scottish and English descent an ancestor, Simon Crosby, emigrated from England to New England in the 1630s during the Puritan migration to New England. His mother was a second-generation Irish-American. His parents were Harry Lowe Crosby (1870–1950), a bookkeeper, and Catherine Helen "Kate" (née Harrigan 1873–1964). The house sits on the campus of his alma mater, Gonzaga University, as a museum housing over 200 artifacts from his life and career, including his Oscar. In 1913, his father built a house at 508 E. In 1906, his family moved to Spokane in Eastern Washington state, where he was raised. In addition to his work with early audio tape recording, he helped finance the development of videotape, bought television stations, bred racehorses, and co-owned the Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team, during which time the team won two World Series (19).Ĭrosby was born on May 3, 1903, in Tacoma, Washington, in a house his father built at 1112 North J Street. Through audio recordings, he produced his radio programs with the same directorial tools and craftsmanship (editing, retaking, rehearsal, time shifting) used in motion picture production, a practice that became the industry standard. Crosby has been associated with the Christmas season since Irving Berlin's musical film Holiday Inn, in which he starred and famously sang "White Christmas". He became the first performer to prerecord his radio shows and master his commercial recordings onto magnetic tape. He then persuaded ABC to allow him to tape his shows. Mullin, he invested $50,000 in the California electronics company Ampex to build copies. After seeing a demonstration of a German broadcast quality reel-to-reel tape recorder brought to the United States by John T. films from 1940 to 1962.Ĭrosby influenced the development of the post World War II recording industry. He was also known for his collaborations with his friend Bob Hope, starring in the Road to. He is one of 33 people to have three stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, in the categories of motion pictures, radio, and audio recording. In 1963, Crosby received the first Grammy Global Achievement Award. At his screen apex in 1946, Crosby starred in three of the year's five highest-grossing films: The Bells of St. He was the number one box office attraction for five consecutive years, 1944 to 1948. Mary's (1945), opposite Ingrid Bergman, becoming the first of six actors to be nominated twice for playing the same character. Ĭrosby won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in Going My Way (1944) and was nominated for its sequel, The Bells of St. : 6 In 1948, Music Digest estimated that his recordings filled more than half of the 80,000 weekly hours allocated to recorded radio music in America. In 1948, American polls declared him the "most admired man alive", ahead of Jackie Robinson and Pope Pius XII. Yank magazine said that he was "the person who had done the most for the morale of overseas servicemen" during World War II. His early career coincided with recording innovations that allowed him to develop an intimate singing style that influenced many male singers who followed, such as Frank Sinatra, Perry Como, Dean Martin, Dick Haymes, Elvis Presley, and John Lennon. He made over 70 feature films and recorded more than 1,600 songs. He was one of the first global cultural icons. He was a leader in record sales, network radio ratings, and motion picture grosses from 1926 to 1977.

Much like your APFT, promotion without your required SSD is not an option. Structured Self Development (SSD) is mandatory for promotion at specific points in your career. Search the ACCP to find MOS-specific courses or complete general courses. Earn one promotion point for every five hours of completed ACCP training. Participate in e-learning classes through the Army Correspondence Course Program (ACCP). Take advantage of the Guard’s tuition assistance programs to get your degree or an advanced degree. While a degree is not required for every type of promotion, getting a degree goes a long way toward advancing your promotion points and significantly increasing the number and types of MOSs for which you can qualify. So stay on top of your PT and keep a solid base of fitness. Promotion without passing your Army Physical Fitness Test is not an option. Tips to Make Sure You’re Ready When Your Promotion Opportunity Arrives 1. Visit your state’s public website to view listings of SWVAs, and check back often as new vacancies could become available at any time. Once your packet has been reviewed to ensure you meet the specified requirements, an MOS training course is provided for those not already duty MOS-qualified. Any Soldier up to two grades below the announced vacancy can apply. This can lead to quicker promotions if you are willing to reclassify, increased pay and the possibility of cross-training into a new MOS before your re-enlistment window. This means SWVAs provide a unique opportunity to be promoted – when you meet all promotion requirements – without being number one on the EPS list. Units have the ability to list an SWVA when a vacancy has been identified that cannot be filled through the Enlisted Promotion System (EPS) due to exhaustion of that particular MOS list. Statewide Vacancy Announcements (SWVA) fill Army National Guard NCO vacancies in low-density MOSs. If any of these scenarios ring true for you, then taking advantage of statewide vacancies might be an option to consider. And let’s be honest, there may be times when your current MOS is just not the right fit for you anymore. Similarly, major life changes like getting married, having kids, going back to school or moving to another state could all be factors that motivate a desire to change specialties. While advancing your military career through continued education and specialized training is always encouraged, knowing which areas of study will offer the most opportunity can sometimes be a challenge. Are you looking for an avenue to advance your career in the Guard? Or, perhaps you are seriously considering changing your MOS. OCR may be useful in a bind, but I tend to rely on the PDF notes instead. Again, this will depend on how neat your handwriting is for me, both the quality of the translation and the layout were pretty poor. The quality of the scans will depend on the quality of the phone and camera that you’re using, but I found them very good using my iPhone X. Just put a cross through the destinations you want, and the app can read these. While you can just scan a page and then choose the destination from the app, you’ll notice that the bottom of each page in the Rocketbook Fusion has the same icons. There’s a huge range of destinations including email, Google Drive, Dropbox and Evernote. You can choose to bundle scans together (scan multiple pages), and whether or not you want OCR turned on. For each choice, you can set the default options for how you want the scan to go across. Each destination has a thumbnail icon, including a rocket, a diamond and an apple. Inside the app, you can set destinations to have your scans sent to. It’s far more fluid and gives better results than other scanning apps designed for regular paper, such as Scanbot. This lets you scan pages, with the app recognising the QR code and automatically lining up the camera, cutting out areas around your desk. So far so good, but what if you don’t want to lose your notes? That’s where the app comes in. App – Quick to scan with some neat options but OCR didn’t work well for me Again, it would be nice if you could buy replacement pages only and slot them in, just in case you have an issue with a single page. This suggests that at some point some pages may get worn out, so I recommend trying to use the entire notebook as evenly as you can. There’s a very faint outline of previous words if you look at the page at the right angle, but not enough that this will put you off writing. Just wait until the page is fully dry, otherwise the ink won’t stick. And, when you’re finished with your text, you can just take the cloth, get it damp and wipe it to clean off the page and start all over again. The results are impressive, and the Fusion is as readable as any regular notebook. Secondly, the ink takes a while to dry, so be careful of smudging or closing the book too soon. First, it seems to take a while for the ink to truly flow, so my first characters always looked a little faint. Writing with the pen is like writing on paper, with a couple of caveats. You get a 0.7 ball pen in the pack, which is a fairly cheap-feeling plastic model: Rocketbook also sells different pens, including different colours and you can buy refills that should fit most ball pens. The only caveat is that you can only use Rocketbook FriXion pens. While the company’s original notebooks could be wiped up to five times using a microwave, you can just wipe the Fusion’s pages clean using a damp cloth (cloth provided). I’d like a more premium feel, more along the lines of a Moleskine notebook.Īll of the pages are made from Rocketbook’s high-tech synthetic paper, which has the feel of a whiteboard: it’s flexible like paper but has a high-gloss sheen on it. A Filofax replacement, if you will.ĭespite the cost of the notebook, it comes with a rather cheap-feeling hard plastic front to it. That gives you a fair amount of flexibility, but the ideal would be an openable ring binder that lets you choose the combination of pages. This book is designed to replace many other notebooks, and contains pages with templates for tasks, two pages of weekly planning, a calendar, objectives, and then a decent chunk of pages with grids or lines. Rocketbook has several notebooks that use its technology, including the Core, which just has line pages, and the Fusion that I have here. Design and writing – Pretty much like paper but with slower-drying ink A slightly limited number of pages and slow drying ink are minor issues but this is a handy high-tech way of replacing a low-tech item. The Rocketbook Fusion aims to change that with its high-tech paper that can be wiped and used time and time again, combined with an app that will scan and save notes for use.Ĭheaper than its digital-based alternatives, such as the Remarkable 2 E Ink tablet, this notebook feels much more like writing for real. Try as it may, digital technology hasn’t managed to replace the ease and convenience of being able to hand-write notes.

When I scraped the parts back together, I found that the plastic rotors had developed fatigue marks around the mounting screws, and one of the rotors finally disintegrated while in flight.įortunately, the only casualty was my aircraft.Īdmittedly in my hurry to set up a flight demonstration for some potential customers, I skipped the process of conducting a thorough preflight inspection of the aircraft. In the middle of my demo, I added power to climb and get a better view of the empty parking lot when suddenly, there was a quiet but sinister *POP*, with the aircraft tumbling into the asphalt from about 150’ Above Ground Level (AGL). I had added a series of extra equipment to the aircraft-including a First Person View (FPV) camera, video transmitter, and an On Screen Display (OSD) that provided real time navigation, altitude, and battery info to my FatShark goggles. Several years ago, I was conducting a demonstration flight for a group of customers on my highly-customized Blade 350QX at the local hobby store. Read more about the drone rules and regulations on our blog or on the FAA page.There are any number of potential areas that a Remote Pilot In Command (RPIC) or drone pilot needs to examine before conducting a professional sUAS flight, and all these areas can have serious impacts on both safety and mission effectiveness. Make sure you follow the rules and regulations set by the FAAĪ Part 107 is required for commercial useįly only during daylight or civil twilight Make sure you have a functioning drone that is free of damage Please respect these rules and regulations when out flying. These rules and regulations are to not only keep you safe, but to also make sure that the airspace shared with planes, helicopters, birds, and so much more remains safe. The FAA has put in place some rules and regulations for both commercial and recreation drone users. But how do you remember all of this, and make sure you complete each thing before take-off? Simple, with a Pre-Flight Checklist!īefore you take-off, there are some important things to keep in mind that are not listed on our checklists. Making sure your memory card is installed and that it has enough space, and making sure the weather conditions are suitable for flying your drone. These are things such as checking both your aircraft and controller batteries for full charge. By taking the proper steps and precautions to prepare your drone for flight. So, with it being so simple, how do you make sure that there are less complications or problems that could potentially arise?Įasy. The list of use cases really goes on, and it's because drones are proving their usefulness and their ease of operation. Construction companies are using drones to survey buildings and take linear measurements. Agronomists are flying drones to detect issues with crops in minutes rather than hours, and aggregate companies are capturing volumetrics of their stockpiles without the heavy machinery. While, roofing contractors are measuring and inspecting roof lines. Tasks such as taking a simple image, flying a field with an NDVI sensor, or flying over your entire stock pile. Due to this ease of operation, drones are becoming more prevalent and beneficial in the workforce. They now require less steps to take off and get your tasks done. Not only is controlling your drones movements easier than ever, but drones have become “smarter” and less complicated to operate in many other ways. Botlink allows for 100% autonomous flight, from takeoff to landing, with just the simple tap of a button. In fact, here at Botlink, we have created a software that does just that. On top of hand gestures, many drones take-off, fly, and land all with the tap of a button. To name a few gestures you can tell your drone to take a “selfie,” fly in a certain direction, and even follow you while your walking, all with simple motions of your hand. Just about a year ago, DJI™ released the DJI™ Spark, the first drone to be controlled by hand gestures. As more and more people are adopting and utilizing drone technology, drones are becoming easier and easier to operate.
