Bonkers TV series — Bonkers is an American animated television series and a spinoff of the earlier series Raw Toonage. It aired from September 4, to February 23, in first-run syndication, the syndicated run was available both separately, and as part of The Disney Afternoon. Reruns of the show continued in syndication until , the show was last seen on Toon Disney, but was taken off the schedule in late The premise of the series was that Bonkers D.
Bobcat and he was made the junior partner of Detective Lucky Piquel, a grim and ill-tempered human who hates toons. Throughout the series, the work together to solve crimes in the Hollywood, Los Angeles. Bonkers repeatedly tried to win Piquels praise, but usually just ended up ruining missions with his antics, at the end of the Lucky episodes, Bonkers was given a new partner, the attractive Officer Miranda Wright.
Although also human, she was far more patient and tolerant of his antics than was Piquel, with Miranda, Bonkers was more the brunt of the slapstick. The series played 65 episodes, as part of The Disney Afternoon and they were not created in chronological order, The Miranda episodes were actually produced first, excluding the two-part series premiere, which featured Piquel and Bonkers meeting for the first time.
This discrepancy becomes evident when observing the look of the character in both sets of episodes. In the Raw Toonage shorts, Bonkers was orange with one spot, golf-club-like ears. When the Lucky Piquel episodes were made, the character had an overhaul, skinnier ears.
The Miranda Wright-era episodes use Bonkerss original look from Raw Toonage, the series also occasionally featured episodes of cartoons from Bonkerss pre-police actor days, all lifted from the Raw Toonage series. While this works for explaining the two designs in context, New partners does not show or explain why he decided to use his make up version for every day.
The Raw Toonage shorts were an after-thought of production, while the Bonkers series was in pre-production, the Raw Toonage team, headed by Larry Latham produced 12 Hes Bonkers shorts. These shorts were, in the context of Bonkers, explained to be some of the shorts Bonkers made at Wackytoons Studios before he was fired. The animated short entitled Petal to the Metal was originally shown in theaters in before the feature movie 3 Ninjas, in syndication, the shorts were collected into four full episodes with fillers of new material in between.
Meanwhile, Duane Capizzi, making his debut, was brought into the fold and teamed with animation veteran Robert Hathcock. The episodes theoretically would feature Bonkers with Wright as his partner and these episodes came back from overseas animation studios looking less than spectacular, causing considerable concern at Disney.
Tugboat — A tug is a boat or ship that maneuvers vessels by pushing or towing them. Tugboats are powerful for their size and strongly built, and some are ocean-going, some tugboats serve as icebreakers or salvage boats. Early tugboats had steam engines, but today most have diesel engines, many tugboats have firefighting monitors, allowing them to assist in firefighting, especially in harbors. Seagoing tugs fall into four categories, The standard seagoing tug with model bow that tows its payload on a hawser.
The notch tug which can be secured in a notch at the stern of a specially designed barge and this configuration is dangerous to use with a barge which is in ballast or in a head- or following sea. Therefore, notch tugs are usually built with a towing winch and these units stay combined under virtually any sea conditions and the tugs usually have poor sea-keeping designs for navigation without their barges attached.
Vessels in this category are considered to be ships rather than tugboats. These vessels must show navigation lights compliant with those required of ships rather than required of tugboats.
Articulated tug and barge units also utilize mechanical means to connect to their barges, the tug slips into a notch in the stern and is attached by a hinged connection. ATBs generally utilize Intercon and Bludworth connecting systems, aTBs are generally staffed as a large tugboat, with between seven and nine crew members. The typical American ATB operating on the east coast customarily displays navigational lights of a towing vessel pushing ahead, compared to seagoing tugboats, harbour tugboats are generally smaller and their width-to-length ratio is often higher, due to the need for a lower draught.
In smaller harbours these are also termed lunch bucket boats, because they are only manned when needed and only at a minimum. River tugs are also referred to as towboats or pushboats and their hull designs would make open ocean operation dangerous. River tugs usually do not have any significant hawser or winch and their hulls feature a flat front or bow to line up with the rectangular stern of the barge, often with large pushing knees.
Tugboat engines typically produce to 2, kW, for safety, tugboats engines often feature two of each critical part for redundancy. A tugboats power is stated by its engines horsepower and its overall bollard pull. The largest commercial harbour tugboats in the ss, used for towing container ships or similar, had around tons of bollard pull, Tugboats are highly maneuverable, and various propulsion systems have been developed to increase maneuverability and increase safety.
Animation — Animation is the process of making the illusion of motion and the illusion of change by means of the rapid display of a sequence of images that minimally differ from each other.
The illusion—as in motion pictures in general—is thought to rely on the phi phenomenon, animators are artists who specialize in the creation of animation. Animation can be recorded with either analogue media, a book, motion picture film, video tape, digital media, including formats with animated GIF, Flash animation.
To display animation, a camera, computer, or projector are used along with new technologies that are produced. Animation creation methods include the traditional animation creation method and those involving stop motion animation of two and three-dimensional objects, paper cutouts, puppets and clay figures, Images are displayed in a rapid succession, usually 24,25,30, or 60 frames per second.
Computer animation processes generating animated images with the general term computer-generated imagery, 3D animation uses computer graphics, while 2D animation is used for stylistic, low bandwidth and faster real-time renderings. They may, of course, refer to Chinese shadow puppets, in the 19th century, the phenakistoscope, zoetrope and praxinoscope were introduced.
A thaumatrope is a toy with a small disk with different pictures on each side.
The phenakistoscope was invented simultaneously by Belgian Joseph Plateau and Austrian Simon von Stampfer in , the phenakistoscope consists of a disk with a series of images, drawn on radi evenly space around the center of the disk. This film is notable as the first known instance of film perforations being used. His films were not photographed, they were drawn directly onto the transparent strip, in , more than , people had attended these screenings.
The film largely consisted of a figure moving about and encountering all manner of morphing objects. There were also sections of live action in which the hands would enter the scene. The film was created by drawing each frame on paper and then shooting each frame onto negative film, the author of the first puppet-animated film was the Russian-born director Wladyslaw Starewicz, known as Ladislas Starevich. Alices character has her origins in stories told by Carroll to entertain the Liddell sisters while rowing on the Isis with his friend Robinson Duckworth, and on subsequent rowing trips.
Although she shares her name with Alice Liddells given name, it is controversial among scholars as to whether or not she can be identified as being based upon Liddell. Carroll characterised her as loving and gentle, courteous to all, trustful and his illustrations of her in Alices Adventures Under Ground, the first version of Alices Adventures in Wonderland are influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite artists.
In the text of the two Alice books, author Lewis Carroll often did not remark on the appearance of his protagonist. Details of her life can be discovered from the text of the two books. At home, she has an older sister, a pet cat named Dinah, an elderly nurse, and a governess. Additionally, she had gone to a day school at some point in the past, Alice has been variously characterised as belonging to the upper class, middle class, or part of the bourgeoisie.
Her social class is reflected in her speech, dress.
Commentators characterise her as innocent, imaginative, introspective, generally well-mannered, outspoken and forthright in challenging authority, the degree to which the character of Alice can be identified as Alice Liddell is controversial. Some critics identify the character as Liddell, or write that she inspired the character, others argue that Carroll considered his protagonist and Liddell to be separate.
Under Ground originated from stories told to the Liddell sisters during an afternoon on 4 July while rowing on the Isis with his friend Robinson Duckworth, and on subsequent rowing trips. At the request of ten-year-old Alice Liddell, Carroll wrote down the stories as Alices Adventures Under Ground, under Ground contains thirty-seven illustrations, twenty-seven of which Alice is depicted in. As his drawings of Alice bear little resemblance to Alice Liddell, whose given name she shares, it has been suggested that Alices younger sister, Edith.
He portrays his protagonist as wearing a tunic, in contrast to the fitted childrens dresses with soft trim that the Liddell sisters might have worn and he gave the hand-written Alices Adventures Under Ground to Alice Liddell in November One of its features is that from time to time its body disappears. There are numerous theories about the origins of the phrase Grinning like a Cheshire Cat in English history.
A possible origin of the phrase is one favoured by the people of Cheshire, the cheese was cut from the tail end, so that the last part eaten was the head of the smiling cat. The resemblance of these lions to cats caused them to be called by the more ignoble name. A similar case is to be found in the village of Charlton, a public-house by the roadside is commonly known by the name of The Cat at Charlton.
The sign of the house was originally a lion or tiger, or some such animal and its first appearance in literature was in the 18th century. A classical dictionary of the tongue by Francis Grose contains the following entry. He grins like a Cheshire cat, said of any one who shows his teeth, the phrase appears again in print in John Wolcots pseudonymous Peter Pindars Pair of Lyric Epistles, Lo, like a Cheshire cat our court will grin. At one point, the cat disappears gradually until nothing is left but its grin, prompting Alice to remark that she has seen a cat without a grin.
Pusey was an authority on the fathers of the Christian Church, as a mathematician, Carroll would have been well familiar with the other meaning of catenary, the curve of a horizontally-suspended chain, which suggests the shape of the cats grin. The Cheshire Cat character has been re-depicted by other creators and used as the inspiration for new characters, primarily in screen media, other non-media contexts that embrace the Cheshire Cat include music, business, and science. Prior to when Walt Disney released an adaptation of the story.
Eliot had the Cheshire Cat in mind when writing Morning at the Window but notes no other significant allusions in the pre-war period. The Dodo is a caricature of the author, a popular but unsubstantiated belief is that Dodgson chose the particular animal to represent himself because of his stammer, and thus would accidentally introduce himself as Do-do-dodgson. This book is full of Spelling and English Mistakes. Its NOT a book I would want to read to my child!!
