"'Buy a pinball machine.'" The family found a 1990 Fun House machine. "I told him, 'You don't go out with your friends anymore you just work and take care of us,'" Nancy says. Jeff was working, then shuttling home to care for his family. In 2000, Nancy was bedridden with what was later diagnosed as lupus. They immediately had something in common - she grew up in small-town West Virginia, where one of the only forms of entertainment was an Evel Knievel pinball machine. Jeff and Nancy met while they were students at the University of Central Florida. From that point, I would look for more pinball machines out at skating rinks, malls, bowling alleys." "Those would have been the games from the mid- to late '70s. "Fast Draw, Joker Poker, Paragon," he says now, listing classic pins. His own dad played, and he introduced his son to the game. Jeff first fell in love with pinball back in the glory days, when he was growing up in Virginia. Already in 2014, 718 tournaments have been held. In 2006, there were 50 pinball matches worldwide. Under the new worldwide ranking, players flipping at IFPA-sanctioned events could earn points and track their progress against players everywhere. There was no way to know who was good or bad." "Back in the '90s, there were pretty strong tournaments in Sweden. "Before that, there was no real way to connect players from across the globe," explains IFPA President Josh Sharpe. The master stroke came in 2006, when a reignited IFPA began ranking players worldwide. The internet helped collectors sniff out old machines. All the major pinball producers shuttered save one.īut there's an unwritten rule that forgotten fads once beloved by nerds will one day rise again. The parent organization that ran international tournaments, the International Flipper Pinball Association, went inactive in 1995. But by the mid-1990s, videogames - both in the arcade and at home - delivered the KO punch. The 1970s and '80s were the classic period of pinball, with companies such as Bally and Williams filling bowling alleys and pizza parlors with the machines. By the time the Who's rock opera Tommy hit in 1972 with the tale of the "Pinball Wizard," some bans were still in place, but the game's popularity had exploded. Pinball became a wink-wink backroom pastime. In 1942, New York City Mayor Fiorello La Guardia personally ordered raids of pinball parlors to destroy the damn machines that were stealing nickels and dimes from "the pockets of schoolchildren." But by then, most major American cities had outlawed the game as another form of gambling. The flipper wasn't introduced until 1947. The first mechanical pinball machines were largely games of chance you shot a ball and tilted the machine to control its trajectory. Now, five months into 2014, Florida has already seen ten.īack in the day - before Xbox, Nintendo, Donkey Kong, or even Pong - there was only pinball. Last year, 13 tournaments with 168 competitors were held in Florida. Fueled by the internet's enthusiasm for all things retro and a new world ranking system, its popularity is surging across the United States. The Palmers' pin success comes amid a pinball resurgence. "He's going to be playing against literally the elite people from the United States." "You have people who are flying in from all over the country," Jeff says. Atticus will be the youngest competitor at the event. And this week, the whole Palmer clan is heading off to Lyons, Colorado - just outside Denver - for the International Flipper Pinball Association's U.S. He clinched those bragging rights at a nail-biter tournament at Club 66 in Boynton Beach in February. The younger Palmer is currently the Florida flipper champ. "We're not," says mom Nancy, "like the other families in the neighborhood." See also: Atticus Palmer Is a Pinball Wunderkind (Slide Show) Put them together and you're looking at Florida's first family of pinball excellence. His only son, Atticus, is a cheery 15-year-old with a Nicolas Cage fixation who likes to dress up like Doctor Who. The man of the house - who, thanks to a Duck Dynasty beard and shoulder-length hair, looks like he could be hauling around guitar cases for Metallica - is a friendly engineer named Jeff Palmer. Another 11 rigs are tucked away in the garage. It's Mayberry 2.0, a David Lynch movie before shit goes bad.īehind the front door of one such modest suburban house - a three-bedroomer on NW Tenth Street - is a living room like a million others, except this one is lined with five blinking pinball machines. The boxy patch of West Broward is made up of neighborhoods of modest ranch homes planted evenly on shady, manicured lawns. Suburbs don't get much tidier than Coral Springs. And when he attended what’s now the University of North Carolina at Asheville before coming to UT, he organized a pageant for a fraternity. Maria Beale Fletcher, the 1962 Miss America, grew up with Rice in Asheville, giving him insight into the pageant world. Those smart people led to smart business, which attracted hard workers.Įventually, Rice would surround himself with beautiful women vying to become Hawaiian Tropic models. Rice surrounded himself with smart people, he said, including some of the world’s most brilliant minds when it comes to aloe. He joined the Hawaiian Tropic team and made a whole lot of money, Rice said. The coach couldn’t believe Rice’s invoice, but there it was. Rice set out on his own that day and sold $2,000 worth of products to local stores by the time the final school bell rang. He showed up to a class taught by the coach, who quickly sent him out the door, fearing he might get in trouble. An assistant coach responded, and Rice made the trip to South Carolina. Rice sent a letter to a Myrtle Beach high school, hoping to reach a football coach interested in working during the slower summer months to expand Hawaiian Tropic's distribution. Eventually, he found his first distributor in Tampa. Rice, who was living off a steady diet of peanut butter and vegetable-bean soup, had other UT graduates supporting him in his endeavor. The business went from a closet to the bay of a service station - “little junky places,” Rice said. The early Hawaiian Tropic headquarters, if you could even call it that, moved 13 times. Turns out, he couldn't have picked a better one. Hawaiian Tropic was the next-best name, Rice thought at the time. In fact, Rice had no clue his original Tropic Tan name already was registered by a family in New Jersey until an attorney checked into it. “I was a pretty good salesman.”īut he wasn’t the best when it came to patents. “I knew that whatever I (made) I could sell myself and sell bottle by bottle,” Rice said. Plus, there was the pleasant smell and the customer belief that the oil actually came from Hawaii. We were growing like crazy.”īut what made people flock to this new product? Part of the answer, Rice said, is that he had the right idea at the right time. “I paid them big money to do that work because I needed them, and I needed it done quick,” Rice said. And when it came time to apply labels to bottles, 11-year-old kids became incredibly resourceful. He wasn’t qualified to make lotions but called upon someone who could. He rubbed his concoctions on beachgoers to get a feel for what worked best. He mixed oil in the can and came up with his own formulas - a little “A, B, C” with “X, Y, Z,” Rice said. Rice had grown the company to a $70 million business when this photo was taken on July 18, 1981. Ron Rice, founder of Hawaiian Tropic, started his suntan oil business by mixing his formulas in a trash can. “I would run around the mountain like you wouldn’t believe. He would mix mortar during the day to help build his dad’s dream home on top of the mountain. Growing up in Asheville, North Carolina, Rice could do only three things: hunt game for Sunday morning meals, play defensive end and build a house.īefore he made his way to the top, Rice climbed from his family’s home on the side of a mountain toward the peak carrying rocks. Keep scrolling for the original story documenting Rice's life, from "mountain boy" to beach tan tycoon. Obit: Notorious Hawaiian Tropic founder and UT grad Ron Rice dies at 81 “Tennessee gave me more credit than I was really worth,” he told Knox News in 2020. His life has been filled with fast cars, celebrity encounters and “so much money we were rolling in it.”īut before his fame and fortune, Rice was just a student at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville looking to capitalize on a unique opportunity after flunking out of nearly every school he attended. It might seem like just a trivial detail to add to the narrative, but it might be worth noting that on the day of the shooting (August 01st) it was the hottest day of 1961, and in Texas you know that must be a hot day! (Could this also be relevant: more mass shootings happen in California than in any other state as well). His course load at UT was also quite heavy. He had no money and the future may have looked a little grim for Whitman as he had “no future prospects”. His own marriage was falling apart and he had just seen his parents get divorced. Reports suggest that he was suffering a lot of personal stress in his life. He never showed up for a follow-up session.īesides the headaches, Whitman might have sought other reasons to attend therapy. I do know that one week before the shootings he had a therapy session with the University of Texas (where he was studying) Psychologist where he complained about terrible headaches. Dexedrine is now prescribed for ADHD because it helps people stay alert, but this was not a common diagnosis in the 1960s and I have been unable to found out why Whitman was prescribed this drug. Dexedrine is an amphetamine (other common amphetamines are speed and Chrystal meth if you watch the TV show Breaking Bad you may know a little bit about methamphetamine). Upon his return to civilian life in the US Charles was prescribed Dexedrine, which his friends say he “took like popcorn”. For those of you who are familiar with the history of the Cold War between the US and USSR, you can imagine that it would probably have been quite a stressful time to serve in Cuba. He was posted at Guantanamo Navy Base in Cuba. When he was old enough Whitman joined the US Military and earned a “sharpshooter” ranking. He was also taught how to handle guns from a young age. He became the youngest member of the Eagle Scouts, which is the highest rank a Boy Scout can achieve. He used violence against Charles and his mother, even when Charles was young. It’s often noted that Whitman’s father was a very violent and abusive man. There were apparently no clues or hints that he would ever commit such a violent, cold, and senseless crime. He was married, served his country in the military and decided to go back to school. In many documentaries Whitman is described as the “All American Boy”, meaning he was a seemingly normal young American man who was just like everyone else. If you’d prefer to read about what happened, you can read this news article that was originally published on August 2nd, 1966 (i.e. We’re also practicing being able to apply psychological research to address problems (i.e. All we can do is theorise and hypothesize. There are no definitive answers and no-one will ever truly know. Remember though, you’re not going to “crack this case”. As you’re watching, be listening for details that might give you some clues as to why he did this. If you already know the story, watch only the first 15 minutes. You can watch the whole documentary on Charles Whitman below, which goes into details about the course of the shootings and what actually happened. Why is this happening? You can read more about statistics on gun violence in America in this BBC article or in this article from the US newspaper the Washington Post. Here you can see the dramatic rise in mass shootings in the United States over the past century. It’s a valuable case study as well because there are multiple possible explanations for why he did what he did. Whitman’s atrocious acts in 1961 are often used as the chronological starting point for investigations into modern gun crime in the US, so we’ll start here as well. To do so, we will be use the story of Charles Whitman as a case study. We will instead explore possible explanations for the rise in gun violence in the USA. So what other possible explanations are there? This is an exceptionally broad problem and one that is impossible to answer definitely. It’s widely reported that Switzerland has more guns per capita (per person) than any other country, yet they have less than 1/3 of the gun deaths of the US ( source). I myself own five guns (for hunting) and have never once thought about using them on another human being. And there has to be more to the story than just being able to own a gun. There is a lot of merit in this argument, but we want to delve deeper to the potential root causes. One obvious argument is because guns are readily accessible and too easy to get. Why have there been more deaths in the US by domestic gun violence in the past fourty years than in all the wars the country has fought in? The unit covers the biological approach – click the image for more info. I like beginning my Criminology unit with the story of Whitman. There is also a dispute ongoing about the place of birth, Mornington House, Dublin, or Dangan Castle, County Meath, the two family homes, town and country respectively. The entry above is dated 23 rd April and the entry following is dated 24 th May all are in the same handwriting. There is at least a little likelihood that these records have been falsified, either intentionally or otherwise. In the baptismal register it is possible, albeit less likely, that the parish officials did not know what the date was. There was already a surviving eldest son, Richard Wellesley and a second son William. As such there may have been some haste to baptise their second Arthur (the future Duke of Wellington) with some haste, in case he should die without having received such a blessing. One possible explanation for this was that, sadly 2 of the Earl and Lady Mornington’s children had died in infancy, including a Arthur Wesley (the family name was changed later to Wellesley in order to Anglicise it), who dies in 1768 aged 6 or 7. However the baptismal register of the Parish of St Peter, Dublin records Arthur’s christening on 30th April 2 days before his birth. It is widely accepted that the 1 st May is his birthday, his own father and mother wrote that it was the 1 st May and Arthur himself celebrated it on this day. The birth of the future Duke of Wellington, in itself has some interesting nuances in that some facts are still disputed.

Hidden Triples When you remove the 6,9 from two cells and the 5,6 you will discover a naked pair (1,4) and a hidden single (2). Therefore, you can remove all 5,6, and 9s from the other cells in this row. Only a 5,6 and 9 can appear in those three locations. In the example at the left, the three cells circled are the three naked triples. Quite often only two of the three candidates will be shown. Unlike naked pairs, naked triples do not need all of the three candidates in every cell. Naked triples like the name suggests are three numbers that do not have any other numbers residing in the cells with them. Sudoku Tips -Naked TriplesĪnother Sudoku tip is to look for “naked triples”. Hidden pairs will appear often in your Sudoku puzzles and games. It is safe to remove all other digits from the two cells circled in red so that only the two and nine remain. They are “hidden” because the other numbers in the two cells make their presence harder to spot. Hidden pairs are identified by the fact that a pair of numbers occur in only two cells of a row, column, or region. In the example at the left there is a hidden pair 2 and 9. The 3,4,6, and 8 quads are really “hidden pairs”. In the naked pair example, it is safe to eliminate the four and six from the two quads of 3,4,6, and 8. When you see a naked pair, it is safe to eliminate those two numbers from all other cells in the row, column, or region the pair reside in. This combination of candidates will occur often also. A naked pair is two identical candidates in a particular row, column, or region. In the example to the left there is a “naked pair”. When there is a lot of candidates showing from the surrounding rows, columns, and regions, a hidden single can be hard to spot. Likewise in the bottom cell the only number that can go there is a four. In this example, the third cell from the top is a seven. The extra candidates in the cell “hide” the single solution. Hidden singles have only one place they can go. In the example at the left there are two hidden singles. Below is another example of a hidden single. No doubt you also noted in this example that once you solved for the naked nine, the 7,9 pair’s solution became a naked single. If you didn’t pencil in all the possible candidates, the naked nine would be less obvious. All the other nines may be crossed off leaving a 6,8 pair, 6,7 pair, a single 7, and a 4,6,8 triple. In the example to the left, you can see the naked single is the nine. If there is one cell that contains a single candidate, then that candidate is the solution for that cell. If there aren’t any other candidates showing, Sudoku players call this a naked single.Įvery naked single allows us to safely eliminate that number from all other cells in the row, column, and region that the naked single lies in. Sudoku Tips -Naked Single CandidatesĮvery Sudoku puzzle will have cells that have only one possible candidate. In these cases use my free blank grid with candidates worksheet. The paper version, board games, and handhelds usually lack this capability. Some online puzzles allow you to pencil in your candidates. Some Sudoku computer programs have the option to show you all the possible candidates. This leads me to my first of several Sudoku tips and that is pencil in all the possible candidates for each cell, row, column, and region. I prefer to use the process of elimination to solve Sudoku. You can use logic retaining in your memory the possible candidates for each cell, row, column, and region or you can write the candidates down. There are two ways to approach the Sudoku Solving process. To solve the hardest puzzles and games, use advanced strategies such as X-Wing, XY-Wing, and Swordfish. Apply these Sudoku tips and you will solve most Sudoku puzzles. It may seem impossible to you to solve anything but the most simple Sudoku puzzles. When you begin to play Sudoku, you probably will have moments when you reach a roadblock.

They discovered that the best ideas were the result of following their instincts, their unspoken, subconscious connection honed over the course of 15 years playing music together. It was a process which cancelled out the noise of any external influences, while also allowing them the convenience to write at their own studio in Brighton whenever inspiration struck. That spirit of independence continues into Back To The Water Below, which saw them self-produce an entire album for the very first time. Their victories have come from hard work, prodigious songwriting, fierce performances and a smidgeon of good fortune. Favouring working independently away from prying eyes rather than enlisting the help of the latest big name co-writer. Relying on their friendship and intuitive musicianship to guide them through as they were catapulted into arenas. Throughout, their story has been one of independence. One day they were plotting how to recoup the meagre £300 they had spent on their first recording, but within a year they were at the top of UK album charts, storming Glastonbury and winning the BRIT Awardfor Best British Group. Long before Royal Blood were even formed, they spent years together in various bands playing to half empty bars around Brighton – and only then did they suddenly become a decade-in-the-making overnight success story.

With an encore that included the poignant All We Have Is Now, they were soon back with all the hedonism Of Ten Tonne Skeleton before Out Of The Black sent the crowd into the biggest frenzy of the night.Royal Blood today ignite an epic season ahead as they announce the September 8 th release of their fourth album Back To The Water Below and share its lead single Mountains At Midnight. When the riff for Figure It Out plays out, the whole Arena claps along to the build up and by this time the duo could be singing the contents of a takeaway menu because the crowd are sweaty, euphoric and putty in their hands. During the chorus such was the noise from the crowd that the vocals were barely heard and it all culminated into a glorious, jaw dropping, extended drum solo which saw Thatcher pay homage to the late Taylor Hawkins on the concave video screen behind him. With the spotlight on drummer Ben Thatcher, perched upon a raised platform, he had everyone cheering when the drums kicked in for Little Monster. They absolutely thundered their way through Hook Line And Sinker before keyboards added a little texture to Million To One, and Loose Change which passed by in a riot of sound. New track Trouble’s Coming fitted right in and encapsulated front man, Mike Kerr’s use of various effect pedals and amps. But the power of two individuals to capture the crowd’s attention means that they have taken talent to a whole new level.Īdding new colours to their monochrome garage rock formula, they have launched this tour with a technically dazzling that has wrapped their minimalistic music in to a maximalistic spectacle.Īssisted by touring keyboard player, Darren James, they opened with Typhoons, and followed up with Lights Out an early stand out song which still sounded as smooth as it always has, whilst Come On Over sent the crowd wild. They are on the face of it a rather odd arena rock band and one that has no guitarist are, to be honest, even odder. Royal Blood arrived at The Motorpoint Arena on Tuesday night, slightly later than planned but despite the delay they absolutely nailed it. |
