It was the phone that led the way on big screens, a stylus-focused note jotter, and there was that one version that exploded and was recalled.

During the week, he revealed the artwork (which, via the use of a stamp, basically posits Skepta as new British royalty) and a tracklist (which kinda looks like BBK stole your school jotter).

Jotter was an Assistant Professor of Biology at UNC-Greensboro from 1963 until she retired in 1984. In 1980, she returned to the Grand Canyon for a second time as part of a scientific expedition to study environmental change in the area. The group used Jotter and Clover's plant list from 1938 as the basis of their work to restore native species destroyed by the Glen Canyon Dam. Jotter died of congestive heart failure on April 30, 2013 in Greensboro, NC. At the time of her death at age 99, Jotter was the last surviving female member of the 1938 Grand Canyon expedition, as Clover had passed away in 1980.

Some believe the white version was developed for the medical field. Others treat it as an experimental color. Whatever the case, it is rare, expensive and eagerly sought after by Jotter collectors. Shortly after introduction an additional model with a stainless steel barrel was added to the line and marketed as the Laboratory Jotter.

Mary Lois Jotter Cutter (1914–2013) was an American botanist. She and Elzada Clover were the first two non-Native women to raft the entire length of the Grand Canyon in 1938.

In her trip logbook, Jotter wrote, "we collected furiously." In 1941, Jotter and Clover published a paper on the cactus they found, as well as a comprehensive plant list. In their publications, they identified four new species of cactus: Grand Canyon claret cup (Echinocereus canyonensis); small flower fishhook cactus (Sclerocactus parviflorus); strawberry hedgehog cactus (Echinocereus decumbens); and an elongated variety of beavertail prickly pear (Opuntia longiareolata). Their research was the only botanical survey of the Colorado River documenting the diverse plant life before the Glen Canyon Dam significantly altered it beginning in 1966.

Born Mary Lois Jotter on March 11, 1914 in Weaverville, California, she was interested in science and botany from a young age. Her father, E.V. Jotter, a German Mennonite who taught forestry at the University of Michigan, and her mother, Artie May Lomb, encouraged her to study science while growing up in Michigan. She graduated from the University of Michigan with a bachelor's degree in botany and biology and continued her studies in botany, obtaining a Doctorate from the University of Michigan in 1943. Her graduate studies focused on the cytogenetics of the evening primrose.

After the trip, Clover and Jotter published the botanical findings of the trip in a 1944 issue of American Midland Naturalist. Clover's next expedition was on the San Juan River and in Texas, where she gathered fossil plant specimens, which was followed by a 1939 trip to Havasupai Canyon in Arizona. She published the findings from these trips in a 1941 article co-authored with Jotter entitled "Cacti of the Colorado River and Tributaries". In the years afterward, Clover focused her research on the deserts of Mexico and Guatemala and also did some work in Haiti.

Elzada Clover (1897–1980) was an American botanist who was the first to catalog plant life in the Grand Canyon on the Colorado River. She and Lois Jotter became the first two women to raft the entire length of the Grand Canyon.

Clover and graduate student, Lois Jotter, became the first women to complete a river run of the Grand Canyon. Also on the trip were graduate students, Eugene Atkinson, artist Bill Gibson (who took photographs and film of the trip), and, as Nevills's assistant, a U.S. Geological Survey geologist named Don Harris. Part way through the trip, due to tensions among expedition members, Atkinson left and was replaced by photographer Emery Kolb. Clover and Jotter made plant lists and collected specimens throughout the trip, although the rigors of the journey—especially lack of space and difficulty keeping specimens dry—meant that they ended up with fewer specimens than they had hoped.

The Parker Jotter is the Parker Pen Company's second and best-selling retracting refillable ballpoint pen. The first was the Hopalong Cassidy ballpoint. (Later a fountain pen, mechanical pencil and rollerball pen were introduced to the line). As with many other ballpoint pens, it can be converted into a gel pen by simply changing the refill.

The jotter shows up in numerous films, such as the Shawshank Redemption. Films (and to a lesser extent television) utilize the pen to display a nobility that will be lost on both the culture and a non-attentive audience. Other examples: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, The Irishman, Just Mercy, The Breakfast Club, Rainmaker, The Two Popes and Se7en.

The expedition ended on August 1, 1938 to much fanfare and press coverage. The Associated Press headline stated "Women Make Perilous Trip Through Colorado Gorges". During the expedition, Jotter and Clover recorded and gathered the diverse plant species along the river. They traveled with handmade plant presses - layers of newspaper, blotting paper, and newspaper, cinched tight with leather straps.

When available, they command premium prices. Additionally, the Jotter has been manufactured in Canada, England, France, Australia, Brazil, West Germany, Peru, Columbia, Mexico, India, China and Argentina. The Jotters manufactured in some of these countries are difficult to find and command higher values than the United States or English versions. Their place of manufacture is usually on the pen's cap.

Young was born in Hampshire, England, and grew up in the New Forest. He attended King Edward VI School in Southampton from 1998-2003 and Brockenhurst College from 2003-2005. He is a great-grandson of the prolific English painter and artist Walter Hayward-Young, who was commonly known as "Jotter". The son of a film-maker, he grew up in a "musical household" and began playing music by borrowing his father's guitars.

The market was flooded with these pens, correspondingly reducing the values of certain colors of Jotters. In over 60 + years of production, the Jotter has been produced in numerous shades, some quite rare. To date it is estimated that more than 100 different colors have been manufactured. Since the introduction of new colors has usually been tied to various promotions, it is probable that many more will be produced, creating a challenge for the collector.

A number of Jotter barrels have a marbleized appearance. They are the result of cleaning the injection molding machines and known as "lunch room" or "end of the day" specials. Some color variations are quite attractive and others are simply strange. If a production run called for blue and the staff had been running gray barrels, the last of the gray material would blend with the blue, producing a blended color barrel.

Since 1954, over 750 million have been sold worldwide. It is priced between US$6 for lower end models, and US$20 for higher end models, such as special editions. Because of its quality, the Jotter has become a de facto standard by which ball pens are measured. Its refill has a ballpoint tip originally called the T-Ball (for Tungsten), with a unique textured surface that greatly reduces slipping and failure to transfer ink onto slick paper, known as "skipping".

Gibbet Mill, Rye by Walter Hayward-Young Educated at Warwick School, Hayward-Young's work, particularly his postcard designs (of which there are over 800), became renowned worldwide. He wrote a series of articles on sketching for The Girls Own Paper and Woman's Magazine which were later published as a book under the title Short Cuts to Sketching. Hayward- Young signed many of his pieces under the pseudonym 'Jotter'. In 1912, Hayward-Young designed posters for the London Underground, including one promoting visits to Hampton Court.

The first half of the trip was plagued by conflict and Nevills sent Atkinson home during a stop at Lee's Ferry. It took the group 43 days total (36 of those were spent on the river) to travel from Green River to Lake Mead, a few days more than expected, partially due to frequent stops so Jotter and Clover could gather specimens. At one point, the Coast Guard sent out a plane to search for the group. They were found and signaled all was well.

Paper Mate pens, among the emerging ballpoint brands of the 1950s, bought the rights to distribute their own ballpoint pens in Canada. Facing concerns about ink- reliability, Paper Mate pioneered new ink formulas and advertised them as "banker-approved". In 1954, Parker Pens released "The Jotter" — the company's first ballpoint—boasting additional features and technological advances which also included the use of tungsten-carbide textured ball-bearings in their pens. In less than a year, Parker sold several million pens at prices between three and nine dollars.

This presumably refers to a now lost fourth Commonplace Book, probably started in 1784 at Mossgiel and used to note farming matters as well as drafts of original poems and songs, including notes on songs intended for James Johnson after 1788. Isabella Burns had a jotting-book used to record simple transactions by William Burness also had records by Robert. Isabella was in the habit of cutting out sections of the jotter for souvenir hunters who visited her at her Belleisle home. This may or may not have been distinct from the lost fourth Commonplace Book.

She later entered the college of decorative arts of Limoges where she developed a strong liking for human shapes (faces and feminine curves) and beauty in general. In 1945, she returned to the family farm in Germont where she spent the rest of her life working the land, something she did "because one has to earn their daily bread". In the meantime, whether milking the cows or driving a tractor, she’d still think of apt rhymes for the poems she wrote. Poetry accompanied her all day long and she’d always carry a wee jotter and a pen in her pocket.

Parker-style G2 large capacity ballpoint refill The Jotter is distinguished by a plunger and cap made of stainless steel, a stylized arrow-shaped clip, a plastic or metal barrel and a metal tip end. When introduced in 1954, the pen barrels were made from grooved nylon. Approximately a year later when new colors were introduced, the barrels were manufactured from 'Hercocel W' (Cellulose acetate) which was more adaptable to the needs of Parker's marketing department (It could be heat stamped, engraved or imprinted). Originally, the barrels were produced in black, grey, green and red (rust).

Boyle, Page 27 The grave of Isabella and her daughters Isabella and Agnes in Alloway Auld Kirk. On 10 June 1844 Isabella, now living in Ayrshire, was part of a family reunion in which her nephews Robert, William Nicol Burns and James Glencairn Burns met together on the banks of the Doon in what was a great public event with at least eighty thousand in attendance.McQueen, Page 30Begg, Page 69 A jotting-book used to record simple transactions by William Burness also had records by Robert and Isabella was in the habit of cutting out sections of the jotter for souvenir hunters who visited her at her Belleisle home.Mackay, Page 70 She recalled that Robert never gained any proficiency with the fiddle or the German flute.

While some of its former staple Jotter pens may be found in retailers such as Office Depot, the Parker line has been moved to upscale "luxury" retailers in an abandonment of its former business model of quality manufacture combined with mass market appeal and pricing. With this commercial strategic move Parker also altered its traditional product warranty on its high end pens, changing the former lifetime guarantee to a two-year warranty limitation.Parker Official Website Parker Pen Co. was an aviation pioneer. The interest of Parker Pen Co. about aircraft came from Kenneth Parker, son of the founder, he enlisted in the fledgling air service and, after flight training at Miami Air Base, Kenneth was assigned to officer training in tactical maneuvers at Pensacola Naval Air Station, Florida.

Pure Grain made her racecourse debut in a six furlong maiden race at Windsor Racecourse on 27 June and finished second of the five runners, beaten three and a half lengths by the favourite Brief Glimpse. Eighteen days later she started 5/6 favourite for a seven furlong maiden at Newmarket and recorded her first success, accelerating clear of her opponents in the closing stages to win by two and a half lengths from Poppy Carew. The filly was then moved up in class, but down in distance, for the Group Three Princess Margaret Stakes over six furlongs at Ascot Racecourse on 23 July and finished third behind Tajannub and Maid For Walking. Pure Grain faced Tajannub, Maid For Walking and Poppy Carew as well as the Sweet Solera Stakes runner-up The Jotter, when she started 2/1 second favourite for the Group Three Prestige Stakes at Goodwood Racecourse on 26 August.
