RISC OS 3 was released with the very earliest version of the A5000 in 1991 and contained a series of new features. The next version, Arthur 2, became RISC OS 2 and was completed and made available in April 1989. RISC OS, the computer operating system developed by Acorn Computers for their ARM-based Acorn Archimedes range, was originally released in 1987 as Arthur 0.20, soon followed by Arthur 0.30, and Arthur 1.20. An early release was the No.21P Empire Flying Boat, issued in 1938. These were the world's first plastic model construction kits. In 1936, a range of 1:72 scale aircraft models in kit or pre-built form, moulded in cellulose acetate, was launched under the Frog Penguin name (alluding to the non-flying nature of these models). was formed and other Frog brand flying models followed. Also in 1932, a marketing partnership with the toy company Lines Bros Ltd. (IMA) originally used the Frog brand name (said to stand for "Flies Right Off the Ground") on the Interceptor Mk.4 semi-scale rubber-band powered flying model, launched the following year. Historyįounded in 1931 by Charles Wilmot and Joe Mansour, International Model Aircraft Ltd. The last Frog branded kits were produced in 1976. By the 1970s Frog's catalogue included a large number of lesser known aircraft types manufactured only by the company as well as a number of ship kits.
Polystyrene models were introduced in 1955 that offered kits of aircraft, ships and cars in various scales. 4, was launched in 1932 followed in 1936 by a range of 1:72 scale model aircraft kits made from cellulose acetate, which were the world's first. The company's first model, an Interceptor Mk. However, the English term is also used, such as in the Alfred edition of George Gershwin's An American in Paris, in which the violins and violas are instructed to play "near the frog" at bar 32.įrog was a well-known British brand of flying model aircraft and scale model construction kits from the 1930s to the 1970s. The foreign language terms sometimes appear in musical instructions, such as au talon, indicating to play with the bow near the frog.
The German equivalent Frosch is the literal equivalent of " frog," while in French and Italian the equivalent of " claw" is used ( talon and tallone). It is also referred to as the "heel" or "nut" of the bow. The origin of the name frog is unknown, although it may derive from the use of the frock, the small device that bow makers use to shape it. Most of the bow frogs used in today's classical bows are made of ebony some synthetic bows have frogs made with materials that imitate ebony, while Baroque bows use frogs made with various woods. If they can't come up with anything I ususally say "Oh, well, I'd be happy to talk to you during recess to tell you what some other kids have tried." It's usually not that important that they want to stay in for recess.The bow frog is the end part of a stringed musical instrument's bow that encloses the mechanism responsible for tightening and holding the bow hair ribbon. Sometimes they come up with a good solution (lately it's been "try an I message?") Usually they look a little stunned that they actually have to think. (Some of the kids were trying to use them.but while the other person was walking away.)īut anyway, one thing I do when kids come up to me and tattle is I put it back on them. I always stress the importance too, of when you're using an I message, make sure that you have the other person's undivided attention. Some kids in the class really get into using them. I want you to stop," you'd probably get punched! But that being said, the kids seem to like them. They teach it at my school, but the truth is, have you EVER heard an adult us an I message? If you were at the grocery store and someone went ahead of you in line and you said "Excuse me, I feel mad when you cut in front of me in line. I think the whole "I message" thing is pretty funny.
