Other telescope product lines include the CGE, CGEM, CPC, NexStar, Omni, Onyx, AstroMaster, Ambassador, TravelScope, and PowerSeeker product lines. The telescope line had a trademark matte orange tube (changed to glossy black in 1980, and back to semi-gloss orange in 2006), and double-fork equatorial mount, and became a popular large aperture, compact design. This allowed for the inexpensive mass production of corrector plates of uniform shape. The primary innovation Celestron/Tom Johnson came up with was a way to produce Schmidt corrector plates using a vacuum to pull the glass blanks into a pre-shaped curve mold called a "master block" during the polishing process. Products A vintage 1970s "orange tube" Celestron C8 telescopeĬelestron was the first large scale commercial manufacturer of the Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, introducing its "C8" 8" diameter 2032 mm focal length, ƒ10 telescope in 1970.

Synta is a manufacturer of astronomy equipment and related components and at that time had been a supplier for Celestron for over 15 years. owned until April 2005 when it was acquired by SW Technology Corporation, a Delaware company and affiliate of Synta Technology Corporation of Taiwan. In early 2002 Celestron's rival, Meade Instruments, attempted a takeover but a bankruptcy court allowed the sale of the company back to its original owners. Celestron was acquired by Tasco in 1997 and almost went out of business when Tasco folded in 2001. Johnson, the founder of the company, sold Celestron in 1980. These models made significant inroads into the amateur astronomical and educational communities. ![]() In 1970 Celestron introduced its "C8" 8" diameter 2032 mm focal length, ƒ10 telescope, the first of a new line of telescopes built using methods developed by Celestron to produce Schmidt-Cassegrains at a high volume and low cost. īy 1964, Johnson had founded "Celestron Pacific" as a division of Valor Electronics offering Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes from 4" to 22". In 1960, Johnson established the "Astro-Optical" division of Valor, which would later become Celestron. Johnson became involved with telescopes when he built a 6" reflecting telescope for his two sons. The predecessor of Celestron was Valor Electronics, an electronics and military components firm founded in 1955 by Tom Johnson. Telescopes and other optical / mechanical devicesĬelestron is an American company based in Torrance, California, United States, that manufactures telescopes and distributes telescopes, binoculars, spotting scopes, microscopes, and accessories manufactured by its parent company, the Synta Technology Corporation of Taiwan. ![]()

![]() Have any leftovers? Store any leftovers in an airtight container (or cover your casserole dish with storage wrap) before refrigerating. If they're added before refrigerating, they'll get soggy instead of having that signature crispy crunch. Simply assemble the casserole, cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until you're ready to bake! Some tips: Make sure to let it cool to room temp before baking, or add a couple minutes to your timer to adjust to the colder temp, and whatever you do, DON'T forget to add the fried onions until after the first round of baking. Make it ahead! Save some time (and oven space) on the busy holiday by making this Thanksgiving side ahead of time. If you want to keep this dish entirely homemade, make your own fried onions (bonus: homemade is available year-round □) or go for classic store-bought French's. Never skip the fried onions. Fried onion pieces are salty, crunchy, and absolutely mandatory for green bean casserole. If you want to add cheese, Gruyère, Parmesan, or Monterey Jack would all be delicious (just don’t use more than a cup). We can totally get behind this, though we don't include it in the recipe below. Although it's not super traditional, some recipes call for mixing shredded cheddar into the green bean mixture. Let that mixture simmer and thicken on your stovetop to have that creamy element of green bean casserole you know and love-no gloppy texture allowed.Īdd cheese. Make your own cream sauce. This sounds fancy, but it's seriously just melting butter, whisking in a little flour, and pouring over milk. Cook them until they get a little caramelized for that strong, rich mushroom flavor to really come through. By sautéing mushrooms (you can choose whichever variety you like most!) with thinly sliced onion in butter, you can build a base with some serious depth of flavor. Sauté onions and mushrooms. The biggest reason we didn’t use canned cream of mushroom soup for this recipe is because of its lack of a strong mushroom taste. You can blanch frozen or fresh ones to get them tender if you're using canned green beans, it's not our first choice, but no need to blanch them. ![]() Green beans aren't in season during November, so if you're more into using frozen, do it! Frozen green beans have been preserved at their peak, so they taste very comparable to fresh. Read on for our top tips to make this classic side dish the best it can be:įresh, frozen, or canned green beans work. You only need 8 ingredients and less than an hour to make it. Though we ditched the traditional cream of mushroom soup for a homemade cream sauce and fresh sautéed mushrooms, don’t worry-this dish is still super simple. This is our most classic recipe, the one you can return to again and again. We love it so much we have more than 7(!) recipes for it onsite, including a gluten-free version, a slow-cooker version, and even a vegan version. Like sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce, it isn’t Thanksgiving without green bean casserole. ![]() ![]() “Rainy Day Mushroom Pillow” was done by the group Stay from Spain. “Birds in my Tree” was covered by a Latin American group called the Buttons. It became the most requested song two weeks in a row. Well, the DJ (Johnny Fairchild, KIST Santa Barbara) who broke the record thought differently and started pushing the B-side. George Bunnell: At the outset “Incense” was the B-side and a novelty song, “The Birman Of Alkatrash,” was the A-side. Rock Cellar: What was the initial reaction to the song? Did people take to it immediately, or did it take a while before catching on? Mark Weitz and Ed King (who later co-wrote “Sweet Home Alabama”) ended up with no credit. So Frank sent in the copyright with only Carter and Gilbert. Frank said no way and to choose two names. ![]() Well Bill said he wanted everyone’s name, including his, on it. When it came time to publish the song, the producer, Frank Slay, told the band’s manager, Bill Holmes, to decide who besides John Carter and Tim Gilbert were to get credit. So he asked him to finish the body of lyrics. Then the producer mentioned that one of the writers in his stable had a working title “Incense and Peppermints” that he thought fit the music. They went into the studio and recorded it that way. George Bunnell: Mark Weitz and Ed King originally wrote the music as an instrumental. Rock Cellar: Did you write the song with the intention that it would be a hit? When we got to “Incense and Peppermints” in the set, the audience exploded. The first night of the first tour was at Constitution Hall in D.C. George Bunnell: We did two tours with the Beach Boys and The Buffalo Springfield and we played in large venues. Rock Cellar: What was your greatest moment performing this song? In the years since it has come to define a certain aspect of the era, but nothing we foresaw. We had no idea it would have the life it has. It had a somewhat of a slow start until CBS decided to run with it on all their rock radio stations across the country. George Bunnell: We knew it was spreading like wildfire. Rock Cellar: Were you able to recognize the impact your song was having at the time of its success, and did you imagine it would span the test of time like it has? We released a total of five albums, but only the first one charted. 85 Cashbox.įive more singles were released after that but none charted. Seventh single, “Good Morning Starshine,” No. Sixth single, “Miss Attraction,” didn’t chart. 56 Cashbox.įourth single, “Barefoot In Baltimore,” No. Our second single, “Tomorrow,” made it to number 23 on Billboard and number 14 on Cashbox. Our first album Incense and Peppermints made it to #11 on The Billboard Album chart. 1 slot on the Billboard Hot 100 and Cashbox. The why? element is obviously because of the magnitude of our first hit reaching the No. Sometimes we’ve just let it go by, but given a fighting chance we may beg to differ. George Bunnell: We fully understand the tag “One-Hit Wonder” as it applies to our band. ![]() Rock Cellar: Do you consider your band to be a “one-hit wonder”? Why or why not? Whatever your definition of “one-hit wonder,” there’s a nuance to the term that often goes overlooked and underappreciated, and it’s with that in mind that we present this new column. ![]() But the truth is, thousands of artists, both old and new, would give their left arm to have that one big hit. Even if the artist had other hits, that one single still seems to be the most widely known by the general public.įrom the artist’s standpoint, there can certainly be a stigma associated with the phrase “one-hit wonder,” especially when many have had successful careers highlighting other charting singles, albums, tours, have produced or written notable songs for other artists, and have cultivated a devoted fan base around the world that helps them remain in the public eye. Many people define it as an artist or band best remembered for one “signature” song that achieves mainstream popularity, especially one that stands the test of time, or a track that landed at precisely the right time and made an undeniable impact that is felt decades later. What determines if a song is a “one-hit wonder”? This is a subject that’s become somewhat difficult to define, as there doesn’t seem to be one clear answer. 1 single, 1967’s “Incense and Peppermints.” In our newest One-Hit Wonder … Or Not? entry, bassist George Bunnell of The Strawberry Alarm Clock discusses his band’s career and whether he and his band mates consider themselves a “one-hit wonder” regarding their No. ![]() ![]() ![]() From “Más Que Tu Amigo” to “Mi Eterno Amor Secreto”, hear all the hits live when you attend his 2021 tour.

Salt – A margarita isn’t margarita if it’s not served in a margarita glass rimmed with salt.I like to use agave nectar or simple syrup. Sweetener – Margaritas have such sharp-tasting ingredients, so you’ll need something sweet to make the flavors more appealing.Bottled lime juice will give your margarita an unpleasant artificial flavor. Lime Juice – Go for freshly squeezed lime juice for best results.It also has notes of orange zest, vanilla, and oak. Grand Marnier – It’s a blend of cognac and orange liqueur, giving it a rich, mostly sweet and slightly bitter flavor.While generally sweet, the cheaper ones are sweeter, while the more high-end ones, such as Cointreau, have a more sweet and bitter flavor, and a distinct orange taste. There are many types of triple sec that vary in sweetness. Triple Sec – It’s widely considered as the standard orange liqueur.It has a sweet, citrusy flavor and a thick syrupy consistency. Curaçao – The original orange liqueur, it’s made with dried orange peels soaked in sugarcane or beet-based alcohol.It’s up to you to decide which brand to use, but here’s a guide, for reference: Orange liqueurs vary in the type of alcohol, orange, and level of sweetness.

The mussels also fed a “perfect storm for algae,” Bootsma said. But “invasive mussels are also probably part of why round gobies had such an easy time establishing here.” ![]() “If the round gobies had gotten to the Great Lakes first, we might have avoided a lot of problems with invasive mussels,” Lafrancois said. But they devour other small invertebrates - and native fish eggs.īootsma’s team set up a cage this summer with mussel-free rocks that are inaccessible to the gobies to see whether the mussels can recolonize. Scientists are studying how the goby might give back to the food web the fish are credited with reviving the Lake Erie water snake population. “So we think what’s happening is that those rocks that we scraped just can’t get recolonized because anytime some small mussels settle on them and try to start growing, the gobies pick them off right away.” “They like small mussels because their shells are easier to crush and they’re easier to digest,” Bootsma said. Scientists thought the mussels, whose millions of young float in the water and then settle down to colonize, might re-blanket the rocks after a year or two.įive years later, some mussels occupy crevices, but the rocks are still largely mussel free. In 2016, they scraped off nearly 1 million mussels from an area the size of a studio apartment. The story of mussel removal in Lake Michigan is also the story of the reef, where researchers have tested hypotheses related to algae, mussels and bottom-dwellers for more than a decade. ![]() “I think we’re actually getting to a point where you can envision a future where the most important parts of Good Harbor Reef are restored to some semblance of natural habitat,” she said. “So we don’t need an infinite amount of invasive mussel removal effort either.” The places where native fish spawn aren’t infinite, said Brenda Moraska Lafrancois, aquatic ecologist with the National Park Service. At Sleeping Bear, that includes invasive species. They’d usually be diving to collect samples, said research fisheries biologist Peter Esselman, but as part of a project with the National Park Service, they were collecting 360-degree video footage to help people understand the underwater landscape - and its challenges. Geological Survey scientists dove down to get a good look at Good Harbor Reef, a mix of cobblestones and sandy stretches. All along the shore you could spot the broken halves of bleached mussel shells.Ī few miles out on the lake, framed by the towering dunes, U.S. On recent sunny days near Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, a boy in a red jersey cast a fishing line from an old wooden dock a woman on the beach, legs crossed, read a newspaper under a blue-green striped umbrella from the top of a bluff, Lake Michigan’s surface flickered like the last moments of a firework. This National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration map charts the spread of invasive mussels in Lake Michigan from the mid-1990s through 2015. Today, it’s still a challenge to get people to understand the widespread implications of the mussels, Bootsma said, because “most people don’t see what’s under the surface.” The nutrients - in the mussels’ control.īut, despite the improbability, if not impossibility, of large-scale mussel removal in Lake Michigan, Bootsma said it’s valid to ask: “Could we do it at scales large enough that there could be some positive impacts?” In the last 30 years, the bottom-dwelling czars have changed the look and chemistry of the lake: the water’s clearer, algae heartier, plankton scarcer. “So it’s really important for us now to understand how we can prevent such dramatic changes happening in the future.”Īs zebra and quagga mussels engulfed Lake Michigan, their colonies transforming rocks into shelled clumps and the lake bed into serrated carpet, they gobbled up phytoplankton at the base of the food web. “What we’ve learned in the Great Lakes is that prevention is a lot cheaper than trying to implement cures,” Bootsma said. Years later, Bootsma is still studying how the mussels have transformed Lake Michigan, suiting up and diving down to an underwater laboratory. ![]() ![]() īut like I said elsewhere - in the end I removed the boosters and reverted to just basic Argtek. ![]() I planned to migrate the boosters and battery to a tray :Ĭheap from Hobby King - just needed small modification to sit P3S controller. but the last 5.8Ghz booster is fine direct of the LiFe cell. a 2S LiFe pack of 6.6V with a 5V BEC is good. Of course, the simple range extenders won’t make it possible to fly an additional 5 miles.

I started to look into boosting the signal and my kid sent me to a link on Amazon for a 'RCGEEK Drone Range Extender Signal Booster'. If you want to have extension leads - then you need to use RP-SMA both ends, as normal leads have non-capped ends. The short answer to your question is a strong yes. I lost signal signal today for the first time flying (flying about a month) and the drone returned home. so you need the FEMALE adaptors to screw on.
