![]() Lynch's best friend, Lori Piestewa, received a serious head wound and died in an Iraqi civilian hospital. Five other soldiers were captured and subsequently rescued 21 days later. Eleven other soldiers in the company were killed in the ambush. She was initially listed as missing in action. Lynch, then a supply clerk with the 507th Maintenance Company from Fort Bliss, Texas, was wounded and captured by Iraqi forces. The Humvee in which Lynch was riding was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade and crashed into the rear of a tractor-trailer. The convoy came under attack by enemy fire. Apparently, the convoy took more than one wrong turn. Maps of the area lack the detail required to properly navigate through tight city streets. Although some vehicles had GPS receivers, military GPS systems, unlike civilian equivalents, provide only grid references and not turn-by-turn navigation. The ambush was unlikely to have been set up in advance, because the Iraqis did not know which course the convoy would take. The convoy was supposed to detour around the town but instead turned directly into it, eventually running into an ambush. On March 23, 2003, a convoy of the United States Army's 507th Maintenance Company and the 3rd Combat Support Battalion elements, led by a Humvee driven by Lori Piestewa, made a wrong turn and were ambushed near Nasiriyah, a major crossing point over the Euphrates northwest of Basra. She later completed Advanced Individual Training for her Military Occupational Specialty as a unit supply specialist (MOS 92Y) in the Quartermaster Corps at Fort Lee, Virginia. "He did not lie to the kids," her mother said, "he said there was always the possibility of war in the future." "But at that time it was before September 11, and there was no terrorism," Lynch recalls, "so we were like, 'that would never happen to me.' " On September 19, 2001, Lynch entered basic training at Fort Jackson, South Carolina. Searching for a way to pay for the children's educations, the Lynch family met with an army recruiter in the summer of 2000 when Lynch was seventeen and still attending high school. Her family could not afford to send her to college her older brother had to drop out for financial reasons as well. Lynch was born in Palestine, West Virginia, the second child and first daughter to Deidre Lynch and Gregory Lynch, Sr. Her role was loosely based on her own experiences during the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003. In 2014, Lynch made her acting debut as specialist Summer L. I'm not about to take credit for something I didn't do. When asked about her heroine status, she stated: "That wasn't me. Lynch has been outspoken in her criticism of the original stories that were reported regarding her combat experience. On April 24, 2007, she testified in front of United States Congress that she had never fired her weapon (her M16 rifle reportedly having jammed), and that she had been knocked unconscious when her vehicle crashed during the ambush. Initial official reports on Lynch's capture and rescue in Iraq were incorrect. special operations forces on April 1, 2003, received considerable media coverage as it was the first successful rescue of an American prisoner of war since World War II and the first ever of a woman. On March 23, 2003, she was serving as a unit supply specialist with the 507th Maintenance Company when her convoy was ambushed by Iraqi troops during the Battle of Nasiriyah Lynch was seriously injured during the offensive and captured by Iraqi soldiers shortly afterwards. Jessica Dawn Lynch (born 26 April 1983) is an American teacher, actress, and former United States Army soldier who served in the 2003 invasion of Iraq as a private first class. Lynch at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. Players can also select which bike they want to compete with as well as the appearance of the suit of their rider. They may then also select the map/track, game mode and toggle vegetation collision (whether players can crash into solid objects, such as trees or buildings) and whether they want to record a replay of the game they're about to play. While creating a custom game in single-player, players can select the amount of computer opponents to compete against, which range from 0, the minimum, to 10 - the maximum amount of opponents in a game (This makes a full race in MM2 eleven players maximum.) They may also select the difficulty, which ranges from easy and normal to hard. ![]() Supercross is similar to nationals, except for the location as well as nationals tracks are far broader and thinner, whereas Supercross tracks are large yet the track is compact. It features an extreme sports-like atmosphere, with the crowd reacting to the player's performance. ![]() In Supercross mode, the player must race against other opponents within a dirtbiking track in a large stadium watched by an audience. In stunts, there is no restriction as to where the player may go, and so he may also roam freely across the map. A failed stunt results from the rider crashing while attempting to perform a stunt. To perform a stunt, a rider must gain enough height in mid-air and then is able to perform any of the six stunts. In Stunts mode, the player, in order to win, must accumulate the highest amount of points by performing successful stunts. In Nationals mode, the player is restricted to racing within a dirtbiking track against other opponents, with the goal of completing a certain amount of laps first (there are no gates in this mode). ![]() Motocross Madness 2 Free Download PC Game. Except, in this mode, the races take place in urban or rural maps, which is smaller and more variable than Baja. In Enduro mode, which is similar to baja, the player also races against other opponents to ride through gates, with the goal of being the first to complete a certain amount of laps. Baja, unlike Nationals or Enduro, takes place in massive, open wilderness. The first player to complete a certain amount of laps is the winner. In Baja mode, the player races against other opponents to ride through checkpoints (called «gates») until all of the gates have been ridden through - this is one complete lap. In either mode, players are not limited to track space, and are free to play amongst the terrain and inanimate objects or moving features such as trains, cars and farm tractors. Players can race against each other on the same map, play tag and can choose from Supercross or Enduro. Unlike the single-player mode, the multiplayer mode is completely lacking in structure. In Pro-Circuit mode, a single player follows a series of events and courses in an effort to win prize money and upgrade equipment. In MM2, there are six types of racing: Stunts, Enduro, Baja, Supercross and Nationals, and the campaign-style Pro-Circuit Mode. ![]() Motocross Madness also supports network play over a LAN environment and, until June 19, 2006, multiplayer gameplay through the MSN Gaming Network. Players as well as bikes are easily customized. It has over 40 tracks in 6 event types, over 50,000 3D objects and a new career mode. This sequel to 1998's Motocross Madness was released on May 26, 2000, with improved graphics, which included better textures and many landscape objects like trees, roadsigns and caravans. It is one of Microsoft's most popular games and also one of the most well received. Motocross Madness 2 Download Free Full Game is a motocross racing computer game that was developed by Rainbow Studios and published by Microsoft Games. Motocross Madness 2 Full PC Game Overview These rules maintain existing features of Perl 5.x regexes, but also allow BNF-style definition of a recursive descent parser via sub-rules. The result is a mini-language called Raku rules, which are used to define Raku grammar as well as provide a tool to programmers in the language. Part of the effort in the design of Raku (formerly named Perl 6) is to improve Perl's regex integration, and to increase their scope and capabilities to allow the definition of parsing expression grammars. Perl later expanded on Spencer's original library to add many new features. Software projects that have adopted Spencer's Tcl regular expression implementation include PostgreSQL. The Tcl library is a hybrid NFA/ DFA implementation with improved performance characteristics. In the 1980s, the more complicated regexes arose in Perl, which originally derived from a regex library written by Henry Spencer (1986), who later wrote an implementation of Advanced Regular Expressions for Tcl. Regexes were subsequently adopted by a wide range of programs, with these early forms standardized in the POSIX.2 standard in 1992. Many variations of these original forms of regular expressions were used in Unix programs at Bell Labs in the 1970s, including vi, lex, sed, AWK, and expr, and in other programs such as Emacs. Ross implemented a tool based on regular expressions that is used for lexical analysis in compiler design. Around the same time when Thompson developed QED, a group of researchers including Douglas T. He later added this capability to the Unix editor ed, which eventually led to the popular search tool grep's use of regular expressions ("grep" is a word derived from the command for regular expression searching in the ed editor: g/ re/p meaning "Global search for Regular Expression and Print matching lines"). For speed, Thompson implemented regular expression matching by just-in-time compilation (JIT) to IBM 7094 code on the Compatible Time-Sharing System, an important early example of JIT compilation. Among the first appearances of regular expressions in program form was when Ken Thompson built Kleene's notation into the editor QED as a means to match patterns in text files. Regular expressions entered popular use from 1968 in two uses: pattern matching in a text editor and lexical analysis in a compiler. Other early implementations of pattern matching include the SNOBOL language, which did not use regular expressions, but instead its own pattern matching constructs. These arose in theoretical computer science, in the subfields of automata theory (models of computation) and the description and classification of formal languages. ![]() Regular expressions originated in 1951, when mathematician Stephen Cole Kleene described regular languages using his mathematical notation called regular events. Stephen Cole Kleene, who introduced the concept Most general-purpose programming languages support regex capabilities either natively or via libraries, including Python, C, C++, Java, Rust, OCaml, and JavaScript. ![]() Regular expressions are used in search engines, in search and replace dialogs of word processors and text editors, in text processing utilities such as sed and AWK, and in lexical analysis. ![]() Different syntaxes for writing regular expressions have existed since the 1980s, one being the POSIX standard and another, widely used, being the Perl syntax. They came into common use with Unix text-processing utilities. The concept of regular expressions began in the 1950s, when the American mathematician Stephen Cole Kleene formalized the concept of a regular language. Regular expression techniques are developed in theoretical computer science and formal language theory. Usually such patterns are used by string-searching algorithms for "find" or "find and replace" operations on strings, or for input validation. ) (?= ) At least two spaces are matched, but only if they occur directly after a period (.) and before an uppercase letter.Ī regular expression (shortened as regex or regexp sometimes referred to as rational expression ) is a sequence of characters that specifies a search pattern in text. Different things might be relevant to different jobs you apply for, so keep a full list and pick the most relevant things from it to include on your resume when you send it out. From this list, you'll then need to narrow down what to actually include on your resume. Make a list of absolutely everything you've done that might be useful on a resume. Take stock of your achievements and activities Related: How to Make Your Resume Stand Out With Action Verbs 4. Also, be sure to vary your language and utilize action verbs throughout your resume to keep your reader engaged. When editing your resume, make sure there are no punctuation, grammatical, spelling, or other errors that will make your resume look unprofessional. Then, have a friend or family member read it again to catch any mistakes you might have missed - you can't afford a typo or missing word as a candidate with no prior work experience. Whatever resume format you decide to use, be sure that your format remains consistent throughout the job resume. While the functional resume format can be an attractive option for job seekers with little relevant experience, most potential employers and hiring managers prefer a chronological or hybrid resume format. A functional resume format focuses on highlighting the candidate's hard and soft skills and achievements, rather than work experience. A chronological resume format lists a candidate's work experience in reverse-chronological order. There are a few dominant resume templates in use today: chronological, functional, and hybrid, which is a combination of the two. A resume summary statement, on the other hand, sums up who you are professionally at the top of the page in a sentence or two and serves as the first impression you give a hiring manager to entice them to keep reading. This is largely because you want to focus on what you can do for the employer, not what the employer can do for you. Resume objective statements, where you state exactly what career goals you wish to achieve, have mostly fallen out of fashion. Whether you're a high school or college student, you may be wondering: How do you write a resume with no work experience? Well, we'll tell you with these expert tips. ![]() ![]() ![]() Just because you don't have existing skills that are relevant to the job or experience in a traditional work setting doesn't mean you can't craft a convincing first job resume. Either way, you need a resume, and what you don't need is to panic. The ol' catch-22: I need a job to get experience, but I need experience to get a job. ![]() Q: How do you work with psycho-acoustic phenomena?Ī: On studio records it’s maybe a bit easier because of the limitation of the CD or LP format, which is stereo, 2 channels. It demands a lot of work and outer-space thinking to make it wide. ![]() I worked a lot on psycho-acoustic phenomena for this piece, I did a lot of stereo and sound positioning, because originally the HighC/UPIC is mono. Q: I did that when I listened to the CD, because each section of Eva and Xavier’s graphics is given a time which correlates to the music.Ī: That was the idea. The graphic designers, the label and myself wanted to get the listener involved in the process of listening and watching at the same time, even if it was not the real score. They did not see my score, only parts of it. To use my original score was too complicated and I wanted them to listen and to do this process of mental drawing themselves, like any other listener. The label has a strong graphic line, very minimal, black and white. I did some videos where you can see and listen to them. Some of the original drawings can be seen on my website. They drew while listening to the record, to create a sort of mirror, like an answer to the whole CD concept. Q: So the drawings on the poster that comes with the release are the score? That is what was fed into the computer programme?Ī: No, the graphics designers, Xavier Robel & Eva Rittmer, did the reverse thing. ![]() I did 85 of those HighC/UPIC sessions, from 12 to 480 seconds each.Ī: Max/msp is a unique and powerful software that allows you to create anything you want/imagine, either in sound or visual art, it’s very famous, very powerful but pretty hard to master. I got more involved when the first version of HighC was made available. I tried many visual-to-sound softwares, like Methasynth, and did some max/msp patches, but nothing too fancy, or complex to really work with it. When I read more about his works, especially the polytopes and UPIC works, I decided to look in that direction, but of course, getting access to the real UPIC machine was very difficult. As a “fan” of Xenakis I was at first really surprised by the UPIC idea, to “draw” sound. ![]() Q: Francisco, on your newest release ‘Untitled Phenomenas in Concrete’, you use an unusual piece of software devised by Xenakis?Ī: Yes. To coincide with this release, Chris Whitehead interviewed Francisco Meirino in order to find out what forces shape his art. His latest release, ‘Untitled Phenomenas In Concrete’ was partly made using software developed by the composer Iannis Xenakis, which involves drawing waveforms and envelopes that are then rendered by the computer. Meirino has also worked with Michael Esposito, an expert in Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP), in which human-sounding voices from an unknown source mysteriously appear on recording equipment. He has collaborated with such artists as Dave Phillips, Mike Shiflet, Jason Kahn, Zbigniew Karkowski and ILIOS among others. He is fascinated by the idea of recording what is not normally deemed useful: The death of PA systems, gear failures, static, magnetic fields and electrical faults. His work explores the tension between programmable material and the potential for its failure. Francisco Meirino lives in Lausanne, Switzerland and has been active in the field of experimental music since 1994. ![]() The concealer offers medium coverage and is great to use if you don’t have major dark circles. However if you are using it for a more casual natural makeup look, then you can just the in-built sponge and it will also get the job done. If you are using the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer with a full coverage foundation then it’s good to use a sponge or beauty blender for better results. ![]() Once I got enough product on my skin, I blended it with the beauty sponge to see if it would have any different effect. I applied the sponge applicator gently under my eyes and the transfer of the product was rather smooth. It will only aggravate you when the product will take time to come out.Īfter I successfully got the concealer out after twisting the tube many times, then the real moment of truth came. I would highly suggest not using it for the first time when you are in hurry. As mentioned earlier, getting the product out for the first 2,3 times is going to be a bit frustrating. This is why I decided to try it multiple times to write an authentic review and not just rave about it like everyone else. Overall Experienceįor such a highly-reviewed concealer my expectations were really high from it. I always prefer products that aren’t too heavily scented. Scent: It doesn’t have a strong scent which is great. The glass tube is helpful in letting you know how much quantity of the product is left. The concealer has a transparent cap through which you can see the white sponge applicator. It comes in a glass tube which looks extremely sleek. Packaging: Just like other Maybelline products, the packaging of this one doesn’t disappoint others. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer Review You can spread the product by using the concealer’s cushion tip.Once enough product appears apply it under your eyes.Keep rotating it til the product starts appearing on it.Twist the red part which is located right below the sponge clockwise.However, getting the product out for the first 2 to 3 times will require a little bit of patience. That means they have attached the sponge with the tube so you don’t even have to use your hands or a sponge if you don’t want to.

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer has been a holy grail product for makeup lovers. You can find good info on services and the alarm manager in the Android documentation.įirst I created a broadcast receiver that simply starts my service when an internet connection is opened (I'm only interested if there is a connection - you might want to filter for the boot event as well). What I did was use a filter for the boot intent and then set an alarm using the alarm manager so that my app was restarted at regular intervals, and then it sent the data. It will probably be shut down by the operating system anyway, or it could be. I recently wrote one of these and decided it is not a good idea to leave a background service running. ![]() I would like the user to do other stuff on the phone while the updates are going on, so if you guys could point me to a tutorial that shows how to actually write background services (maybe these run as separate classes?) or other ways of doing this, that would be great.

Mytracks - MyTracks for Android opensource. ![]() So it means I'm clueless at this point, never having used Android before. However, when I tried starting a periodic tracking method from inside the StartTrack Activity, using requestLocationUpdates(String provider, long minTime, float minDistance, LocationListener listener) where minTime is the poll period from the server, it just did not work, and I'm not getting any errors. which allows you to collect data in the field including species name, location, measurements. Similarly, the trip is closed server-side upon the close trip request. Phones: Motorola DROID X2 smart phone from 2011 to 2013. This part works, in that I can display the response on the phone, and my server registers the user's action. Once the trip is started from the phone, the server responds with a polling period for the phone to use as the interval between updates. Being a newbie, I am not sure how to set up a background service that sends the location updates once every (pre-determined) period (min 3 minutes, max 1 hr) until the user flags the end of the trip, or until a preset amount of time elapses. The thing is that it is easy to pass data, including coords and other items, to the server when a user starts a trip or ends it. Jul 2nd - All you bikers out there will no doubt be interested to hear this news (that’s if you follow the Tour de France): My Tracks. I am running a Web service that allows users to record their trips (kind of like Google's MyTracks) as part of a larger app. Google My Tracks Will Provide Real-Time Tour de France Data.

We have the privilege and pleasure to be. Subnautica: Below Zero - Official PlayStation 5 Trailer State of Play. UnknownWorlds does warn potential players, however, that "bugs are frequent but often not game-breaking" and that "performance (frame rate) is poor relative to what we want in the finished game."

Up until today, we've only seen the smallest of glimpses of Below Zero's icy new environs. ![]() ![]() Set one year after the original Subnautica, Below Zero challenges you to. Overall I feel like this game is amazing and the story is fantastic but the sound design was the let down for me.Below Zero, the arctic-themed standalone expansion for deep-sea adventure Subnautica, is now available in early access on PC - and, to celebrate, developer UnknownWorlds has offered up the very first trailer.ĭescribed as a "new chapter" in the Subnautica saga, Below Zero unfolds one year on from the events of the base game and challenges players to survive a disaster at an alien research station, located in a previously unseen, ice-bound region of ocean planet 4546B. Below is a list of all the PS4 games with a PS5 enhanced mode thats available. Yes, this game is its own game but I feel that this reason was kind of a let down in my opinion. I feel like sound design is an important part of a game like this and is one of the many reasons why the first game was so successful. Yes, the Chelicerate did indeed have some sound design when up close and when it was attacking, but it wasn't nearly as frightening as some creatures in the first game like the Sea Dragon and the Reaper Leviathan. When I got close to the Chelicerate, for example, I was only minimally frightened by the sheer size and look of the creature. In the original Subnautica, I struggled to get enough courage to get close to the Aurora without getting scared off by the incredibly scary roar the Reaper Leviathan let off at a distance and up close. I feel like some of the leviathans didn't sound as threatening as the first game. ![]() The only thing that was bugging me about the game was the sound design, mainly for some of the larger leviathans. I must say, the game is fantastic and captures the core elements of the first game while still making it feel like its own game. Just coming back to the trailer after completing the game. As the lone survivor of a passenger jet crash, you find yourself in a mysterious forest battling to stay alive against a society of cannibalistic mutants. Griffith died July 7, 1919, however, he had left a sizeable trust fund to complete the dreams he had for the park specifically designating funds for the construction of a Greek amphitheater (the Greek Theatre, built 1930) and an observatory and hall of science (Griffith Observatory, built 1935.) ![]() Since Griffith's original gift, further donations of land, along with City purchases and the reversion of private land to public domain have expanded the Park to its present size. I wish to pay my debt of duty in this way to the community in which I have prospered." " I consider it my obligation to make Los Angeles a happier, cleaner, and finer city. " It must be made a place of recreation and rest for the masses, a resort for the rank and file, for the plain people," Griffith said on that occasion. ![]() The enormous gift, equal to five square miles, was to be given to the city unconditionally - or almost so. On December 16, 1896, the civic-minded Griffith bequeathed 3,015 acres of his Rancho Los Feliz estate as a Christmas gift to the people of Los Angeles to be used as parkland. In 1882, Griffith settled in Los Angeles, and purchased a 4,071 acre portion of the Rancho Los Feliz, which stretched northward from the northern boundaries of the Pueblo de Los Angeles. Born in Glamorganshire, South Wales, Griffith emigrated to the United States in 1865, eventually, making a personal fortune in California gold mine speculation. Originally a part of the Spanish land grant, Rancho Los Feliz, the park was named for its former owner, Colonel Griffith J. |
