Polaroid Swinger

The Polaroid Model 20 "Swinger" was a popular Land Camera produced by the Polaroid Corporation between July 1965 and 1970. At $19.95 () and weighing only 21 ounces (600 g), it was the first truly inexpensive instant camera, a fact that helped fuel its enormous popularity and made it one of the top-selling cameras of all time. The Swinger was especially successful in the youth market due to its low price, stylish appearance, catchy Meet the Swinger jingle, as well as getting the camera into drugstores. In fact, it was so successful that it became Polaroid's best selling product at the time, and increased their share in the new camera market.

History
The camera was designed by Henry Dreyfuss.

One source for the name claims that when copywriter Phyllis Robinson of Doyle Dane Bernbach watched Edwin H. Land walk into her office swinging the camera from his wrist, she decided on the name "Swinger".

The Swinger featured an extinction exposure meter tied to the aperture which displayed the word "YES" in a window below the viewfinder when the exposure was set correctly. Earlier models also displayed the word "NO" when not properly adjusted, while later units used only the YES indicator. The Swinger also included a built-in flashgun for AG-1 flashbulb and a single element lens.

The Swinger used Polaroid's 20-Series roll film, which was the first Polaroid roll film to develop outside the camera. The Swinger only used black and white film that kept its price low originally at $1.99 (equivalent to US$16.40 in 2020), but each roll produced small 2½" × 3¼" wallet size prints that were little more than half the 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" size of 40-Series Land Picture Rolls.

By 1970, sales went down because young people did not like the quality of the photos, and those who did buy the camera used two rolls of film on average.
 
Variants included the Model M-15 "Swinger Sentinel" (the Swinger II in non-US markets), which was a cheaper Swinger without the built-in flash, and the Model 3000 "Big Swinger", which used 100-Series pack film instead of the old-style picture rolls. The Swinger name was also used on several international-market Polaroid cameras in the 1960s and 1970s.

Song
The song of the commercial Meet the Swinger was sung by Barry Manilow and a female chorus with the music written by Mitch Leigh and the lyrics that used the instructions of how to take photographs with the camera and also revealed the price were written by Phyllis Robinson. Two commercials were released at the time, both featuring Ali MacGraw as one of four young people going to the beach or on a picnic on bicycles then photographing the day's fun as a record of their memories.

World War II Combat: Iwo Jima

World War II Combat: Iwo Jima is a budget-priced first-person shooter developed by Direct Action Games and published by Groove Games.

Gameplay
The game consists of ten missions, three of which take place in Saipan and the rest on Iwo Jima. In each mission, the player must complete a number of objectives to progress. The player is equipped with four weapons including a pistol, a secondary firearm, an explosive weapon and a knife (which can be upgraded to a flamethrower in some missions). Restocking on bullets requires the player to search bodies and places as well as occasional ammunition pickups. The player can also try to collect three hidden "Souvenirs" in every mission, which if collected will allow the player to access trivial history and war documentary footage. The Xbox version supports up to four players in Split screen mode.

Development 
The game's composer, Alex Guilbert, also acted as an audio director and provided voice acting for the title, receiving top billing in the game's credits.

Reception

Like its predecessor, World War II Combat: Road to Berlin, it received extremely negative reviews from reviewers and users alike. It suffered from many of the same problems of the first game.

The game received "generally unfavorable reviews" on both platforms according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.

Cost competitiveness of fuel sources

The Cost competitiveness of fuel sources is a measure of whether or not particular fuel sources are  cost competitive in the energy market, and is a primary factor in determining if a fuel source will be utilized. If a fuel source can be produced and sold lower than the price crude oil is being traded at, including taxes, then it is considered to be a cost competitive fuel source.

"Lazard’s levelized cost of energy (LCOE) is the most commonly used metric for comparing cost competitiveness of fuel sources", according to the Lone Star Fuels Alliance.

The Sound Factory

The Sound Factory (also known as Sunset Sound Factory) is a recording studio in Los Angeles, California.

The Sound Factory was built in the 1960s on Selma Avenue in Hollywood. At the time, it served as the home of Moonglow Records and the Moonglow Recording Studio. In 1969, former RCA recording engineer and Warner/Reprise producer, David Hassinger purchased the Moonglow Records/Studio building and renamed it The Sound Factory. The studio became one of the most popular recording studios in Hollywood, which led its owner to open a second Sound Factory studio in West Hollywood. The West Hollywood studio was eventually closed.

In November 1981, Sunset Sound Recorders owners Paul and Tutti Camarata purchased the famous studio.

The Sound Factory has been used by many top music artists including Linda Ronstadt (who recorded most of her career-defining hits there), Marvin Gaye, Gram Parsons and The Flying Burrito Brothers (in early 1970, for their 'no nonsense' country album; some of these tracks surfaced on Sleepless Nights), Ringo Starr, Dolly Parton, Sheena Easton, Oingo Boingo, Brian Wilson, The Jackson 5, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Borchardt, Keziah Jones, Lostprophets, Jinx Titanic, The Vines, Tally Hall, Belle and Sebastian, and Harry Chapin.

Revealed frog

The revealed frog, whirring tree frog, or orange-thighed treefrog (Litoria revelata) is a species of tree frog native to coastal eastern Australia.

Description
This frog reaches  in length. It is cream to red-brown on the back, with a darker band running down the middle. Males turn bright yellow in colour during the breeding season. A dark strip runs from the nostril to the shoulder, across the tympanum. The back of the legs are red and the thigh is yellow-orange. Some large black dots occur on the thigh and the backs of the legs. The belly is cream and the iris is golden.

Distribution and habitat 
It is distributed in four separate populations. Two populations occur exclusively in Queensland; these are the most northern population in Atherton Tableland in northern Queensland; another population occurs in the Clarke Range in mid-northern Queensland, and a population is found on the border of Queensland and New South Wales. This population is from Ballina, New South Wales, to Tamborine National Park, Queensland. The most southern population, also the largest, occurs in mid-northern New South Wales. This population is distributed between Ourimbah in the south and the Myall Lakes National Park in the north, also a population occurs around Port Macquarie, but this is part of the southern population. These four populations may represent more than one species. This species is associated with dam impoundments, ditches, swamps, and still areas of streams in heathland, wet or dry sclerophyll forest, and rainforest.

Ecology and behaviour

Males make a high-pitched whirring noise, similar to the Verreaux's tree frog; calling occurs from spring to autumn, either from the ground or from vegetation bordering the breeding area.

Mungo Park (golfer)

Mungo Park (22 October 1836 – 19 June 1904) was a member of a famous family of Scottish golfers. He won the 1874 Open Championship held at Musselburgh Links.

Early life
He was born 22 October 1836 to farm labourer and occasional golfer James Park (1797–1873) and his wife Euphemia (née Kerr; 1806–1860), at Quarry Houses in Musselburgh, which was to become one of the three towns that shared hosting responsibilities for The Open Championship through the 1870s and 1880s. He learned golf at the age of four, but then spent 20 years as a seaman.

Golf career
After his career as a seaman concluded he returned to his home town in the early 1870s and won the 1874 Open Championship on the Musselburgh Links. His winning score was 159 for 36 holes. He spent his later life working as a teacher, golf course designer and clubmaker. Park would go on to post four more top-10 finishes in The Open Championship between 1875 and 1881.

Golf course design
Park was the first club professional at Alnmouth Golf Club and it is believed by those associated with the club that he was also responsible for the design of the course.

Family
Park's brother, Willie, and his nephew, Willie Park, Jr., both won The Open Championship. 

Mungo Park had a nephew, Mungo Park Jr., Willie Jr.'s younger brother, who was also a professional golfer. Mungo Jr. spent some time in Argentina and won the Argentine Open three times, in 1905, 1907 and 1912.

Acanthophoenix rubra

Acanthophoenix rubra, the barbel palm, is a critically endangered palm endemic to Mauritius, Rodrigues, and La Reunion that is prized for its edible palm hearts.

Naming and description

It is also known as the red- or yellow- Barbel palm, red palm, Mascarene Islands cabbage palm, and palmiste rouge, palmiste bourre, palmiste des bois, palmiste des hauts, palmiste épineux, palmiste zépines, palmiste piquant in French.

This palm was first described as Areca rubra by French naturalist Jean Baptiste Bory de Saint-Vincent in 1804 and classified by German botanist Hermann Wendland in its own genus Acanthophoenix in 1867. It can reach a height of 25 m. The trunk is slender, with a diameter of 18 cm. The crown contents of about 10 leaves approximately 3 m in size which are arranged convoluted.

In his 1995 checklist of seed plants, Rafaël Govaerts considered A. crinita to be a synonym of Acanthophoenix rubra, as did Govaerts and John Dransfield in their 2005 checklist of palms.  However, in his revision of the genus, N. Ludwig recognised A. crinita as a separate species.

Threats
The Barbel palm is endangered due to habitat destruction to make way for sugarcane plantations, and its high value as edible and medicinal plant. The palm heart is a delicacy. About 150 individuals occur in the wild on Mauritius. It is widely grown in cultivation.

Synonyms
 Areca rubra Bory (1804).
 Acanthophoenix crinita (Bory) H.Wendl. (1867).
