where they get their best jingles i get my best jingles and it's all based on the fans kind of deciding which jingle is the best and then we compete and then we trounce them with of course shake hands with danger um that's now been retired so now it's going to be a real competition i mean i knew shake hands with danger was going to crush them especially having the person who wrote the song as the judge so anyways they're they're hungry over there at found footage festival so we have to really uh go through and be more diligent uh anyways back to some film this is an odd film um i don't know where i got this i got maybe this was an ebay fine but my feeling is and i don't have any information that tells me this for sure but i have a feeling that this was shown on twa flights uh that they would put together these kind of packaged back when they used to show movies um they would show these kind of condensed feature films where they would cut out the cursing and the nudity and the extreme violence they would also have maybe television they would also have other selected things and this is a selected thing and this is where twa i think late 70s early 80s they put this together and i think they got you know they basically got sponsors to mention these things it's a their version of a news newsreel but it's all sponsor stuff so here's twa world on parade and has a really great uh soundtrack enjoy [Music] world on parade keeping up in the world with what's new in the world brought to you on transworld airlines by companies and countries from around the world [Music] the history of gold is the history of man it has always been so [Music] gold is unique constant civilizations have used it as a form of declaration to adorn their women and worship their gods [Music] it is virtually indestructible universally recognized and accepted portable and compact man's traditional hedge against unsettled times man has always known its worth one bullion coin is issued in four affordable sizes with a gold content of exactly one troy ounce exactly one half ounce exactly one quarter ounce and even one tenth ounce [Music] that coin is the south african krugerrand and it is sold from selected coin dealers precious metal companies and banks today the krugerrand is considered the world's best way to own gold and at this time of the year it makes a truly golden gift high above the arctic circle on the far northern coast of alaska drilling for oil beneath the permafrost is a major effort in a ruggedly hostile environment so is its transportation the crude oil injected into a 48-inch pipeline must travel over 800 miles alternatively above and below ground over rugged mountain passes to finally end up in giant storage tanks at the small port of valdez on the south coast of alaska it's here the technology and seamanship come together to move alaska crude in bulk to the refineries in the lower 48 states [Music] this is the exxon tanker north slope the north slope is known as vlcc very large crude carrier and she's all of that 906 feet long a beam of 173 feet 15 cargo tanks that will hold 1 million 100 000 barrels of alaska crude loading the big tanker through four hydraulically operated loading arms is one of the critical operations between the wellhead and the refinery the crude oil fed by gravity is taken aboard at the rate of more than a hundred thousand barrels an hour [Music] when fully loaded the north slope is taken out to sea by the harbor pilot radar scanners and depth finders confirm the skills of both the pilot and the captain [Music] once in the open waters the pilot's job is done the captain sets course in the outbound traffic lane south to san francisco the ship will take over four days to reach california from alaska building to a speed of 15.5 knots or 165 000 deadweight tons will be skillfully sailed by a sophisticated combination of gyroscopic autopilot orbiting space satellite navigation systems onboard computers and a seaworthy crew of 27. [Music] during the voyage fire and safety drill are important parts of the ship safety program the north slope carries two specially built fully enclosed and equipped lifeboats each boat is large enough to accommodate the entire crew even aboard a vessel like the north slope monotony can be a problem to help prevent it the crew's day room provides videotaped movies as well as a well-stocked library and plenty of good food [Music] from alaska to california over 2 000 miles to san francisco the big tanker slows to take on the port pilot then through the golden gate into the harbor this great tanker will unload enough crude to finally fuel more than 000 cars heat more than 6 000 homes for a year yet it's just a small fraction of america's energy needs even for one day in 30 hours the north slope will again put to see on a compass heading of 328 degrees her destination alaska and valdez harbor [Music] [Music] so freestyle skiing it began in america freestyle is performed by people of all ages in well-organized and professionally managed competitions throughout the us the united states ski association sanctions events to ensure uniformity and rules and regulations governing the judging and safety aspects of the sport [Music] [Music] ballet skiing consists of a well-rounded routine of spins jumps and tricks choreographed to the competitor's choice of music the mogul event

nothing else like it even in new york world on parade brought to you by companies and countries presenting their best in new products services and new ways of living [Music] wow so there you go um yeah so uh that as as i thought i'm thinking and somebody else can uh on facebook thought the same thing this was probably shown during a flight um back when they would show like tv shows and movies on uh flights and they would actually show it on 16 and eventually actually uh i think they did super 8 too um so this would be like a promotional thing so i'm sure there'll be um some things related to uh what they showed on the world of parade world on parade uh i should say um two things i mentioned found footage festival and this last film mentioned manhattan uh and next week uh quite quickly um and suddenly i'm to be in manhattan for a week um helping one of the found footage festival guys open a video store um so what is that going to mean for our show i'm going to try to post a show every day i don't think i'll be able to do it live but i will try to do that so um it's a weird thing my wife and i are like wow that was strange but i i saw the the av geek signal in the sky saying help us help us help us and so um we're rising to the challenge um so there you go all right it's time to talk about some color harmony for your home enjoy heraldry marked man's early use of color in coats of arms it symbolized great families it stood for king and crown and royal splendor unfurled against the sky colorful banners became the symbols of great nations through the dark ages and the renaissance fine artists used color with great skill but for hundreds of years color was a scarce commodity in the drab lives of most people until the alchemists became scientists and then it happened with a suddenness that rocked the civilized world now there is color everywhere color within the reach of everyone parking lots reveal the rainbow's hues as the color revolution gains momentum practically everything we buy today is available in a range of color choices ceramics radios luggage telephones [Music] ranges bathroom fixtures countertops floor coverings and fabrics color to excite the mind color to delight the taste [Music] now of course the problem is how to get the colors you want how to create order out of confusion how to select wall colors that will tie these multi hued products together to achieve a harmonious pleasant and tasteful room the answer can be found in something creatively and scientifically new the new colorizer paint system let's suppose you're selecting colors for the kitchen in your new home or that you're redoing your old one you've decided on the floor covering you've picked out the range and refrigerator and have chosen them in one of the new colors now available you've decided on cabinets in a color that matches the appliances you have samples of the floor tile color samples of the metal cabinets and appliances and a color sample of the countertop material so off you go to the nearest colorizer paint dealer to find just the right paint color that will unify all the color elements and create a delightful and harmonious kitchen the new colorizer album is full of new features that make it easy to find the colors you want from a collection of 1322 colors that will blend or harmonize with or compliment anything that you own or plan to buy down the side of the album you'll notice several color index tabs if you're looking for colors in the red family just flip the elbow open to the red tab and there you'll find all the reds grouped on double page spreads of large actual paint chips [Music] all the colors are arranged for convenient comparison and selection the light pastels are at the left the middle depth colors next and the deep tone colors in the right hand columns the clean clear tones are at the top the softer or muted colors develop as you look down the page the visual arrangement and order of the colors in each color family accord with the way people see color naturally [Music] you'll notice that each page has a number of gloss chips they serve to show the difference in color appearance between the same color in flat finish and gloss [Music] every color in the album is available in all finishes gloss semi-gloss and flat all outside or inside finishes it's a simple matter to find just the right paint color to match or harmonize with your samples that's the one it harmonizes with all your sample colors and will tie your color elements together into a delightful kitchen between every page is a flexible plastic sheet which prevents the facing color chips from rubbing together and scuffing or marring each other it also serves as a direction sheet for your paint dealer an oval window permits him to see your color chip and its number he reads the formula for making the color right from the sheet this minimizes the possibility of error it makes it easy for you to find the color you want and makes it simple for your dealer to supply it right away without special mixing any one of the 1300 1322 colors can be made from just one of three base paints there's a white base for the light or pastel colors a mid tone for the middle depth colors and a deep tone for the darker color [Music] then there are 17 fluid colorants in tubes most colors are made from one or two tubes of colorant mixed with one of the base paints mixing the colorant into the base paint is so simple a child can do it just press all the colorant from the tubes the mixing takes less time than to stir up ordinary paint because the colorant is stirred in from the top there's no hardened sediment on the bottom of the can the result is a kitchen of breathtaking beauty and lasting good taste [Music] but let's look at some other decorating problems you're tired of a room and you'd like to redo it but you need a color scheme a color harmony plan that will help you select the right draperies and floor covering the right fabrics wallpaper and paint back at your colorizer paint store you'll find what you're looking for at the front of the new colorizer album is a remarkable new color harmony selector it shows 12 hues in a circle or every other one of the 24 color spreads in the album in each hue or sector there is a light color a medium grayer color and a brilliant color in each sector the size of the color chip is a guide to the amount of each color that is desirable to use in a room light colors or soft grayed colors may be used on large areas brilliant colors should be used in smaller amounts as accents [Music] three sets of openings expose three hues equidistant around the color wheel the colors in one opening are in harmony with the colors in the other two openings and may be used in a room together however all the colors should not be used in one room and not all of them should be paint colors you might select your carpeting to match the grayed green color [Music] fabric for draperies could be selected to harmonize with a pastel yellow at the top of the sector with occasional accents of fabric to match the bright yellow paint for the walls could match the mid-tone green thus you would have a color scheme of charm and beauty with balance and good taste every color on the color harmony selector has a number from the album [Music] many variations of these colors may be found by turning to the same number in the album all the colors surrounding the number will harmonize because they are tints shades or tones of the same hue thus the range of color choices from the color harmony selector is almost infinite in room decoration there are three basic harmonies in general use one color harmony called monochromatic where different values and chromas of the same hue are used related color harmony where neighboring colors are used from adjacent sectors of the color wheel and contrasting color harmony where colors are used from opposite sectors of the color wheel most people begin planning a color harmony around something they already own or plan to buy let's assume you have selected a drapery fabric let's try creating a monochromatic color scheme designed to enhance the drapery material [Music] first you turn the plastic disc to the sector which harmonizes with the drapery colors the color harmony selector locates the monochromatic family of colors in which the fabric belongs the number of the color family is six so turn to the number six spread of colors in the album [Music] because walls are the largest area in a room let's find a pleasing wall color first here's one that brings out the lively golden tones of the fabric but is soft enough to be used in large wall areas [Music] with the drapery and the wall color selected choose your carpeting in a pleasing soft neutral shade of the same color family while upholstery fabrics can pick up some of the deeper and more brilliant tones of the drapery thus a refreshingly beautiful room can be created using a monochromatic color scheme now let's try a related color scheme designed around another drapery fabric you selected a cool refreshing fabric in blues and greens for a bedroom many people don't realize that blues and greens can be used together but using the color harmony selector and choosing appropriate shades of each color an unusually pleasing harmony can be achieved hold the green color of the fabric next to the sector that matches it in hue then turn the disc through the related color sectors to the one that matches the blues in the material from the colors in any of these four adjacent sectors we can build a pleasing related color harmony now let's choose a nice blue for the walls the color family that matches the drapery blue is number 19. so turn to the number 19 spread in the album [Music] here's a crisp clear blue that harmonizes with the flowers and forms a pleasing contrast with a white background select upholstery fabrics and bed spreads in other shades of greens and blues within the range of the four related color sectors a rug in a deeper tone of blue to harmonize with the wall ties the whole scheme together now let's see how beautiful they all look together the wall color drapery and carpeting harmonize perfectly the upholstery fabrics complete the color scheme thus is created a delightful livable bedroom in related color harmony
