Goldfish (snack)

Goldfish are fish-shaped biscuits manufactured by Pepperidge Farm, a division of the Campbell Soup Company. The crackers are available in several varieties and since 1998, only 40% of the crackers contains a small anthropomorphic imprint of an eye and a smile. The brand's current marketing and product packaging incorporates this feature of the product: "The Snack That Smiles Back! Goldfish!", and the slogan is also reinforced by the mascot, named Finn, who wears sunglasses.

History

Originally invented by Oscar J. Kambly at Swiss biscuit manufacturer Kambly in 1960, Goldfish snacks were introduced to the United States in 1969 by Pepperidge Farm founder Margaret Rudkin.Young & Rubicam handled advertising Goldfish from 1998 until 2004 when Campbells brought in BrightHouse Live to handle the account.

Flavors

Goldfish come in many varieties. (see below for Flavor Blasted varieties): (there are 39 different flavors)

A.K.A. Goldfish

A.K.A. Goldfish is the title of a 1994 American creator-owned comic book series written and drawn by Brian Michael Bendis. The series was originally published by Caliber Comics, with later issues by Image Comics. The entire award-winning series was collected and published as a trade paperback, entitled Goldfish rather than A.K.A. Goldfish, in 2001.

The black-and-white series is a noir fiction tale, telling the story of David Gold, a con man, who used the sobriquet "Goldfish". Gold has returned to Cleveland, Ohio after a ten-year absence in order to regain possession of his son, currently in the custody of the boy's mother and Gold's ex-girlfriend, crime boss Lauren Bacall (a reference to the well-known actress of the same name). Bacall is the owner of the Club Cinderella, a nightclub, casino and brothel, and scene for many sequences within the story.

Files transferred over shell protocol

Files transferred over Shell protocol (FISH) is a network protocol that uses Secure Shell (SSH) or Remote Shell (RSH) to transfer files between computers and manage remote files.

The advantage of FISH is that all it requires on the server-side is an SSH or RSH implementation, Unix shell, and a set of standard Unix utilities (like ls, cat or dd—unlike other methods of remote access to files via a remote shell, scp for example, which requires scp on the server side). Optionally, there can be a special FISH server program (called start_fish_server) on the server, which executes FISH commands instead of Unix shell and thus speeds up operations.

The protocol was designed by Pavel Machek in 1998 for the Midnight Commander software tool.

Protocol messages

Client sends text requests of the following form:

Fish commands are all defined, shell equivalents may vary. Fish commands always have priority: the server is expected to execute a fish command if it understands it. If it does not, however, it can try and execute a shell command. When there is no special server program, Unix shell ignores the fish command as a comment and executes the equivalent shell command(s).

Jasper Fish

Jasper Fish (buried 28 July 1791 at Sevenoaks, Kent) was a noted professional cricketer in the 18th century who was chiefly associated with Kent in the 1760s and 1770s.

Most of his career took place before cricket's statistical record began with regular scorecards in 1772 and he is recorded in only three major cricket matches in 1769, 1773 and 1777.

Fish anatomy

Fish anatomy is the study of the form or morphology of fishes. It can be contrasted with fish physiology, which is the study of how the component parts of fish function together in the living fish. In practice, fish anatomy and fish physiology complement each other, the former dealing with the structure of a fish, its organs or component parts and how they are put together, such as might be observed on the dissecting table or under the microscope, and the latter dealing with how those components function together in the living fish.

The anatomy of fish is often shaped by the physical characteristics of water, the medium in which fish live. Water is much denser than air, holds a relatively small amount of dissolved oxygen, and absorbs more light than air does. The body of a fish is divided into a head, trunk and tail, although the divisions between the three are not always externally visible. The skeleton, which forms the support structure inside the fish, is either made of cartilage, in cartilaginous fish, or bone in bony fish. The main skeletal element is the vertebral column, composed of articulating vertebrae which are lightweight yet strong. The ribs attach to the spine and there are no limbs or limb girdles. The main external features of the fish, the fins, are composed of either bony or soft spines called rays, which with the exception of the caudal fins, have no direct connection with the spine. They are supported by the muscles which compose the main part of the trunk. The heart has two chambers and pumps the blood through the respiratory surfaces of the gills and on round the body in a single circulatory loop. The eyes are adapted for seeing underwater and have only local vision. There is an inner ear but no external or middle ear. Low frequency vibrations are detected by the lateral line system of sense organs that run along the length of the sides of fish, and these respond to nearby movements and to changes in water pressure.

1000 Clowns

1000 Clowns was a rap group most notable for two songs: "(Not the) Greatest Rapper", which appeared on the Good Burger soundtrack, and "Kitty Kat Max".

History

The group's vocalists were sisters Anita and Michelle, and the band's leader, composer, lead singer and rapper was Kevi. DJ Mr. Pao was the turntablist, and he co-produced many of the songs. The other two members were DJ Dax and drummer Scotty.

Album

The group released an album in 1999 titled Freelance Bubblehead, produced by Mickey Petralia. Neil Gladstone of CMJ New Music Monthly thought that the album was "easy on the ears" but formulaic.

The single "(Not the) Greatest Rapper" charted at number 23 on the UK Singles Chart in 1999.
