Literature | Max A huntsman, and the best marksman in Germany. He was betrothed to Agatha, who was to be his bride if he obtained the prize in the annual trial-shot. Having been unsuccessful in his practice for several days, Caspar induced him to go to the wolf's glen at midnight and obtain seven charmed balls from Samiel the Black Huntsman. On the day of contest, the prince bade him shoot at a dove. Max aimed at the bird, but killed Caspar, who was concealed in a tree. The prince abolished in consequence the annual fête of the trial-shot. (Weber: Der Freischütz, an opera.). Source: Brewer's Dictionary. |

Max Fleischer (July 19, 1883 - September 11, 1972) was an important pioneer in the development of the animated cartoon. He brought such charicatures as Betty Boop, Koko the Clown, Popeye, and Superman to the movie screen, and was responsible for a number of technological innovations.Fleischer was born in Vienna, Austria; in his childhood his family immigrated to the USA in 1887 and settled in New York City.
Fleischer had the idea of using frames of a live action film as the basis for drawing animation, his patent for the rotoscope was granted in 1917, although Max and Dave Fleischer made their first cartoon using the device in 1915.
In 1919 he established Fleischer Studios for producing animated cartoons and short subjects. His brothers Dave Fleischer and Richard Fleischer also worked there.
Fleischer invented the rotograph, the first technique for adding animated characters to live backgrounds. Extensive use of this technique was made in Fleischer's Out of the Inkwell series, one of the highlights being a boxing match between the cartoon Koko the Clown and a live kitten.
Fleischer was also responsible for the "follow the bouncing ball" sing along cartoons.
Fleischer produced the first sound animated cartoons in 1924 using the Lee DeForest sound-on-film synchronization process (years before Steamboat Willie, which the Disney Corporation likes to imply was the first sound cartoon).
Fleischer's studio was bought out by Paramount Pictures in 1942.
Fleischer died in Woodland Hills, California

Metropolitan Area Express (MAX) is a light rail system in Portland, Oregon. It is operated by TriMet.
MAX is one of two light rail systems in Portland; the other is the Portland Streetcar. MAX trains are larger and faster, and cover greater distances than the streetcar system.
Lines
There are currently two MAX lines, with a third line under construction.
* Length shown does not include a shared segment with Eastside MAX
Portland MAX Light Rail Lines Line Name Color Outlying Terminus Opened Length # Stations Eastside Blue Cleveland Ave (Gresham) 1986 15 mi (24 km) 29 Westside Blue Hatfield Government Center (Hillsboro) 1998 18 mi (29 km) 20 Airport Red Airport 2001 5.5 mi (8.9 km)* 4 Interstate Yellow Expo Center 2004
(planned)5.8 mi (9.3 km)* 10 Totals 44.3 mi (71.3 km) 63
The central terminus for all lines is Pioneer Square. Although the Blue Line is technically one line, its routes and construction history effectively divide it into two lines (Eastside and Westside).
Mode of operation
The MAX system operates in several different modes.
- In the central city trains run in mixed traffic on surface streets, similar to a streetcar (although there is a separate streetcar system, the Portland Streetcar).
- Outside the central city MAX has its own right-of-way. Older track segments are controlled by traffic signals at intersections. Newer segments are fully grade-separated or have controlled crossings to give trains the right-of-way.
- One 3 mile (4.8 km) section operates as a subway below Washington Park. This section has only one station, which is 260 feet (79 m) below ground-level – the deepest transit station in North America.
Rolling stock
There are currently two models of MAX cars.
The original Type 1 cars were manufactured by Bombardier Corporation and featured a raised floor with steps at the doors. The interior design was similar to that of a bus.
With the opening of Westside MAX in 1998, new Type 2 cars made by Siemens were introduced. These cars have a low-floor design, digital readerboards, and open floor plan. The floor is level with streetside platforms, greatly simplyfing access and eliminating the need for wheelchair lifts.
The trains operate in one- or two-car consists. MAX trains can't be longer than two cars because Portland's downtown blocks are only about 200 feet (61 m) long. The MAX cars are about 90 feet (27.5 m) long, so a train consisting of more than two cars would block intersections.

(on order)
Train frequency
Airport trains run every 15 minutes from 5 AM to 11:30 PM. Blue Line trains run every 10 minutes (15 minutes late nights and Sundays). Actual schedules vary by location and time of day. At most stations a live readerboard shows the destination and time-to-arrival of the next several trains.
