Slapjack

Slapjack, also known as Slaps, is a simple standard-deck card game, generally played among children. It can often be a child's first introduction to playing cards. The game is related to Egyptian Ratscrew and is also sometimes known as Heart Attack. It is also related to the simpler 'slap' card games often called snap.

Gameplay

A 52-card deck is divided into face-down stacks as equally as possible between all players. One player removes the top card of his stack and places it face-up on the playing surface within reach of all players. The players take turns doing this in a clockwise manner until a Jack is placed on the pile. At this point, any and all players may attempt to slap the pile with the hand they used to place the card; whoever covers the stack with his hand first takes the pile, shuffles it, and adds it to the bottom of his stack. If another player puts their card over the Jack before it is slapped, the Jack and the cards underneath can't be taken by a player until the next Jack is revealed. When a player has run out of cards, he has one more chance to slap a jack and get back in the game, but if he fails, he is out. Gameplay continues with hands of this sort until one player has acquired all of the cards.

Snap (computer graphics)

In computer graphics, snapping allows an object to be easily positioned in alignment with grid lines, guide lines or another object, by causing it to automatically jump to an exact position when the user drags it to the proximity of the desired location.

Some CAD software provides a "Snap" pull-down menu with diverse options as preferences for the practice of the operation.

In Windows with the option snap enabled, vertical positioning of a window against the top edge of the screen causes it to change into full screen.

Ooops!

Ooops! (1970s TV series)

Ooops! is a Canadian children's game show television series which aired on CBC Television from 1970 to 1971.

Premise

Harry Brown, known on the series as the "Great Drake", hosted this game show from various Canadian cities, often with the assistance of local presenters. The set contained a large game board on which contestants moved forward or backward based on the audience response to a given riddle or joke. Game winners chose their prize from six mystery bags, most of which were prizes such as radios, recordings or books, but one bag contained a duck as a booby prize. Children participated in the game by mailing in riddles and jokes to be used for the game segment, and they could also purchase a home version from the CBC.

The series included a parody news and weather segment hosted by John O'Leary entitled "Ooops! Nooos" and "Ooops! Weather For Ducks".

Scheduling

This half-hour series was broadcast on Tuesdays at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern) from 29 September 1970 to 29 June 1971.
