MORE THAN 2 MILLION PLAYERS WORLDWIDE (on Android version)Īfter our two
successful games, SOV1 and SOV2, here comes the greatest: Hijacker Jack! An
innovative action game which you have never seen before. Our decisions during
the game will affect his karma as we choose between material values or turning
back to his old life, which finally leads the story to one of the four different
alternate endings.ĭo you want to live the life of rich and famous? Live like
Jack! Since you can’t be sure exactly which settings the hijacker altered, it’s
best to restore everything to their original default settings via your browser’s
Settings menu. While he can’t trust anyone around him, he slowly starts figuring
out the reason behind his kidnapping. Once your computer has been thoroughly
purged of malware, you can reclaim control of your browser. The local
authorities conceded to the hijackers demands and provided an Ilyushin Il-76
aircraft to fly the hijackers to. All seems fine while living the #highlife
until he suddenly experiences the dark side of his fame…ĭuring his
transformation he has to survive some romance and thrilling adventures,
including fist fights, gun fights, car chasing, parkour and much more. On 1
December 1988, a LAZ -687 bus carrying thirty fourth-grade pupils and one
teacher from school 42 in Ordzhonikidze, Soviet Union (now Vladikavkaz in
Russia) was hijacked by five armed criminals, led by Pavel Yakshiyants. Skype
follows the same method as sound board, going into my headphones so I can hear
the person on Skype and then lands in the recording box on the right hand
channel.

Our hero lives peacefully off-the-grid when one day he is kidnapped, re-shaped
and thrown into a fancy luxurious world as a celebrity impostor. Both soundboard
and microphone end up in the recording box assigned to the left hand channel of
the stereo file.

Our hero is controlled in first-person point of view through the story, while he
has to survive thrilling action scenes by making decisions in every 2-3 seconds,
delivering punch/kick combinations in fist fights, jumping between rooftops or
even just like in any FPS game, grab a shotgun and maintain public order.
Harrowing audio revealed the pilot joking with the controllers who begged him to
land the 76-seater plane before it nosedived and burst into a fireball 25 miles
away. Hijacker Jack is the first ever FMV live-action game with real-time
interaction. Watch as Forensics Investigator Ed Primeau analyzes the reco.
Television channels showed video footage of the hijacker, identified as Seif
Eldin Mustafa, 59, being searched by security men at a metal detector at Borg
al-Arab airport in Alexandria. Hijackers are deployed by the namesake support
power, available from the Pandora Hub once it is upgraded with the Chemplug
add-on. To do this, they can disguise themselves as almost any enemy infantry.
Thank you for all the feedback! We understood that the controls were horrible,
so decided to change the concept and transform our game to the first ARCADE FMV
ever! Hope you will like it. How do the terrorists take control of the plane The
'Mayday' call audio contains crucial clues. The Hijacker is a daring individual
employed by the Scorpion Cell whose primary role is to steal enemy vehicles.

OPERATION PHANTOM FURY 127TH

10/3/2023

The process of clearing the city was slow, as many houses were booby-trapped.
However, the fighting continued for several more days, as Coalition forces moved
house-to- house to eliminate the remnants of the insurgent resistance. By the
end of November 13th, most of the city was under the control of coalition
forces. The RCT 1 moved through the Nazal, Jebail, and Resala neighborhoods
while RCT 7 continued to attack the industrial districts to the southeast. By
the end of the 10th of November, the coalition forces had taken control of 70
percent of the city. By the evening of November 9th, the coalition troops were
able to take control of the strategically significant Highway 10, which bisected
the city. Using the Army’s armored support, the coalition troops were able to
effectively attack key enemy positions, including a main train station. On the
8th of November, RCT 1 and RCT 7 commenced the attack on the city with the help
of artillery and air strikes. A similar mission was undertaken by the British
Black Watch Regiment to block off the east and south sides of Fallujah.

The combat teams took control of two major bridges to prevent enemy retreat from
the northern and eastern part of the city. The RCT 1 assaulted the city from the
north, while RCT 7 attacked the eastern part of the city. The insurgents were
expecting the coalition forces to attack from the south and southeast, but the
coalition forces changed their tactics. It is estimated that over 70 percent of
its civilians departed from Fallujah before the battle even started.
DESCRIPTIONīefore the attack started, the area was cordoned off, and civilians
were encouraged to leave the city. They also filled empty dark building with
gasoline and propane bottles, were wired to trigger a detonation whenever
Coalition troops entered the buildings. They dug trenches and tunnels, prepared
spider holes, and used a wide variety of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) to
prevent the coalition troops from entering their city. These ‘Mujahedeen’
fighters and insurgents fortified the city in anticipation of attack. Fallujah
was defended by more than 500 proficient and around 3,000 “part-time”
insurgents. Army artillery battalions, aircraft, and U.S.

The coalition troops were assisted by 2,000 Iraqi troops, U.S.

Army's 2nd Battalion/2nd Infantry, 1st Battalion/3rd Marines, 1st Battalion/8th
Marines, and the 2nd Battalion/12th Cavalry. Team 1 was comprised by 3rd
Battalion/5th Marines, 3rd Battalion/1st Marines, 23 Seabees, the Naval Mobile
Construction Battalion 4, and the U.S. The coalition troops were grouped into
two Combat Teams: Regimental Combat Team 1 (RCT 1) and the Regimental Combat
Team 7 (RCT 7). The insurgents, with the support of al-Qaeda in Iraq, were led
by Omar Hussein Hadid and Abdullah al-Janabi who had about 5,000 under their
command. Natonski who had about 15,000 men under their command, including
American, Biritsh, and those Iraqi soldiers loyal to the new U.S.-supported
government. The coalition forces were led by Lieutenant General John F. The
fierce Second Battle of Fallujah was fought between a U.S.-led Coalition and the
insurgents. Most historians consider the ghastly killing and hanging of
Americans in March of 2004 as the most strongly motivating precursors of the
Battles of Fallujah. They started killing American troops to avenge the death of
insurgents in other cities. However, by 2004, the city had become a haven for
foreign fighters, insurgents, smugglers, and criminals alike. Despite the city
being densely populated and strategically important, it was relatively untouched
by the Coalition forces in their drive to Baghdad. Backgroundįallujah is located
about 40 miles east of Baghdad, close to the ‘V-Ring’ of what was called the
‘Sunni Triangle’. Second Battle Of Fallujah, 2004 (Iraq War) A map of Fallujah.

SUPERFAMILY BLACKLETTER TYPEFACE

10/3/2023

0 Comments

 

Today, almost all major western typefaces are Roman. You’d also probably find
them a lot easier to read because they look like the letters that we’ve been
reading our whole lives. Just like the letters chiseled onto the side of an
ancient marble column, Roman letters are sparer and more vertical than their
blackletter counterparts. This was the typeface associated with Imperial Rome.

The printing press appeared to only further cement blackletter’s status as
Europe’s typeface, but then blackletter was challenged by different typeface:
Roman. As with so many big leaps in technology, the printing press started off
by borrowing heavily on the design conventions that came before it, even though
the new operating principles made those conventions unnecessary. Susan Reed is
head of Germanic Studies at the British Library, and she says that blackletter
became so ingrained in the culture that even after it stopped being needed,
people kept using it. So much so that it wasn’t really a type choice, it was
just what words looked like. Which is actually how Germany’s most common form of
blackletter would get its name: Fraktur.īlackletter was first developed in
France in the 12th Century, but within a few hundred years it had become
standard throughout Europe. The technique of using straight lines instead of
curves gave the letters a fragmented appearance. It was hard for a monk copying
out a text to consistently draw perfect circles over and over again, and if you
were a scribe it was a lot easier to produce all those Os and Us and Cs out of a
series of short straight lines. Every letter, even the rounded ones, had to look
exactly the same. But while these shapes look easy enough to draw, if you’re
using a quill to draw out thousands of them, page after page, it becomes
difficult.īack then, just as now, readers valued standardization in a text. Dan
Reynolds is an American type designer and historian who has been living in
Germany for the last two decades, and he says today we’re used to letterforms
with perfectly rounded curves: think of our O’s, U’s, P’s, and C’s. Blackletter
may seem incredibly ornate and definitely does not seem like a conventional
style of writing, but back in the Middle Ages, blackletter was actually
considered practical. Once upon a time in that bygone era of knights and castles
and feather quills, blackletter was used all across Europe. But to understand
how people’s feelings about a simple typeface got to this point, we need to go
back to the moment of its birth. Using blackletter is a statement and sends a
signal of emphasizing the “Germanness.” Today, depending on one’s perspective,
blackletter can either represent German culture’s rich and proud heritage or
alternatively, symbolize everything that is wrong with it.

Today in Germany, blackletter typefaces are frequently used by Neo-Nazi groups
and for many Germans, they bring to mind the dark times of the country’s fascist
past.įlorian Hardwig is a graphic designer and the editor of a website called
Fonts in Use and he says that in Germany, any blackletter typeface is used to
signal German nationalism. You’ve seen it on Nazi posters, on Nazi office
buildings, on Nazi roadwork signs. If you have ever caught even one minute of
the History Channel… or really any documentary about World War II, you have seen
this type. But for many people, especially in Europe, blackletter is most
closely associated with one thing: it’s the “Nazi Font.” Blackletter is the type
of old-timey Gothic typeface that you often see used for the bold front titles
of newspapers like the New York Times or Washington Post, or on the T-shirts of
Heavy Metal bands. A typeface from a family of German typefaces once used
throughout Germany which are known collectively as Fraktur which in English goes
by a different name: blackletter. “The implication to me was I am one of the
good ones and not, a ‘foreigner.’” But what really drove the message of this
sign home, was not just the words, but the typeface it was printed in. “When I
got on the bus, I see that the bus driver had put up a sign inside of the bus
that said in German, ‘Diesen Bus Steuert ein Deutscher Fahrer,’ which means
‘this bus is driven by a German driver.’” This was not the kind of message Peter
was used to seeing on his daily commute, but to Peter… the meaning of the
message was pretty clear.

But one morning last September, he noticed something unusual as he boarded.
Peter Dörfell lives in Dresden Germany where he works in elder care, visiting
clients at their homes, and to do that, he usually takes the bus.

Plus, Smith said, she believes that on some levels the trans experience has
become “boring to people.” Her desire to tell the stories of trans women who had
to turn to sex work came from her own experience of how difficult it can be to
find employment in a world that is sometimes far from accepting. If her scenes
with the women feel feel incredibly intimate, it’s because Smith related to her
subjects as a trans woman herself.Ī former music producer, she says she was
blackballed from the industry following her transition. “Koko’s passing really
created an even higher urgency to tell this story and to release this film,”
Smith added. Sadly, Smith said that were it not Koko Da Doll, “some other trans
woman in Atlanta” would have been murdered, which factored into her desire to
peel back the curtain on the reality of the lives of those like her – a reality
that does include the possibility of violence. “She put on this whole thing of

reportedly shot to death in Atlanta in April. It’s already won two awards at the
Sundance Film Festival and made headlines, unfortunately in part due to a
tragedy. The film is raw and unflinching, featuring discussions that range from
the danger the women often face to the men who are secretly attracted to and
patronizing them. Smith’s film does the same for Black transgender sex workers
in New York City and Atlanta today. “Paris Is Burning” gave the world a glimpse
into the ballroom culture in New York City, shining a spotlight on the LGBTQ+
community of the mid-to-late 1980s there. “I will never forget the first time I
saw it, so for people to compare such a film to what I’ve done with my first
film, I’m just blown away by that.”

“I think it’s a tremendous comparison because ‘Paris Is Burning’ was so
groundbreaking when it happened,” she recently told CNN.

Smith couldn’t be happier about her new documentary, “Kokomo City,” being

speakers.Line-in (Blue) to connect audio devices to your PC (CD players,
etc).The available audio ports typically include the following: The most common
PC audio ports It made the user experience simpler and more convenient. Older
PCs generally feature separate ports for audio and input, as headsets back then
offered two separate plugs. But you will lose mic functionality or audio output
because these audio ports aren’t designed to handle both mic input and stereo
audio. Instead, look for mid-tier headphone splitters, which will provide you
with the best value possible.For instance, you can plug your headset jack into
one of the audio ports on your PC. They are pretty unreliable and will last for
a short period.

Note: Please avoid low-end headphone splitters. The type of headphone splitter
(dual or multi).Want to purchase a headphone splitter? Well, prepare to spend
from as little as $3 and all up to $30 for some models. How Much Do Headphone
Splitters Usually Cost? The products on our list are extremely reliable and will
last for many years with no problems.īrand history: There are hundreds of brands
on the market, but we only included the most trusted, well-established ones.
Reliability: Next, we also took into consideration the overall reliability of
the headphone splitters. Sound quality: We only included headphone splitters
that could deliver crystal-clear sound quality.

Shopper feedback: By reviewing feedback, we could see what customers had to say
about each specific headphone splitter. Here are some elements that we looked
for throughout the whole evaluation process: How Did We Find the Top Headphone

avoid any tangling, while others prefer longer ones (that range up to 50 inches)
so that they can have more freedom of movement. Typically, this is a matter of
preference. The second thing that you should pay attention to is the size of the
cable. Remember, most of them will reduce the audio level as you increase the
number of headphones. On the flip side, if you’re thinking about connecting four
or five headphones simultaneously, then you should search for a multi or star
splitter. So, the ultimate choice will depend on your requirements.įor instance,
if you plan on sharing your device with two headphones, then you should look for
a dual splitter. Generally, there are two different models available on the

It may be fully explored after the game's beginning without restriction,
although story progress unlocks more gameplay content. Composed of the San
Andreas open countryside area, including the fictional Blaine County, and the
fictional city of Los Santos, the world is much larger in area than earlier
entries in the series. Outside of the missions, players may freely roam the open
world. Players complete missions-linear scenarios with set objectives-to
progress through the story. Grand Theft Auto V is an action-adventure game
played from either a third-person or first-person perspective. It is the second
best-selling video game of all time with over 185 million copies shipped, and as
of April 2018, one of the most financially successful entertainment products of
all time, with about $6 billion in worldwide revenue. It won year-end accolades
including Game of the Year awards from several gaming publications, and is
considered one of seventh and eighth generation console gaming's most
significant titles and among the best video games ever made. However, it caused
controversies related to its depiction of violence and women. It received
critical acclaim, with praise directed at its multiple protagonist design, open
world, presentation and gameplay.

Grand Theft Auto V was released in September 2013 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox
360, in November 2014 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, in April 2015 for
Windows, and in March 2022 for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.Įxtensively
marketed and widely anticipated, the game broke industry sales records and
became the fastest-selling entertainment product in history, earning $800
million in its first day and $1 billion in its first three days. The game's
soundtrack features an original score composed by a team of producers who
collaborated over several years. Much of the development work constituted the
open world's creation, and several team members conducted field research around
California to capture footage for the design team. The development team drew
influence from many of their previous projects such as Red Dead Redemption and
Max Payne 3 and designed the game around three lead protagonists to innovate on
the core structure of its predecessors.

The game's development began around the time of Grand Theft Auto IV 's release
and was shared between many of Rockstar's studios worldwide. Grand Theft Auto
Online, the game's online multiplayer mode, lets up to 30 players engage in a
variety of different cooperative and competitive game modes.

A "wanted" system governs the aggression of law enforcement response to players
who commit crimes. The story is centred on the heist sequences, and many
missions involve shooting and driving gameplay. Players control the three lead
protagonists throughout single-player and switch among them, both during and
outside missions. The game is played from either a third-person or first-person
perspective, and its world is navigated on foot and by vehicle. The open world
design lets players freely roam San Andreas' open countryside and the fictional
city of Los Santos, based on Los Angeles. Set within the fictional state of San
Andreas, based on Southern California, the single-player story follows three
protagonists-retired bank robber Michael De Santa, street gangster Franklin
Clinton, and drug dealer and gunrunner Trevor Philips-and their attempts to
commit heists while under pressure from a corrupt government agency and powerful
criminals.

It is the seventh main entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, following 2008's
Grand Theft Auto IV, and the fifteenth instalment overall. Grand Theft Auto V is
a 2013 action-adventure game developed by Rockstar North and published by
Rockstar Games.

This move is unlike the 70s Robot in which this is based on the robotic
movements of the main character of the 1987 movie RoboCop.

The Robocop is a dance move in which the dancer with their feet apart, slams
down their fist and elbow to one side then the other in stiff movements. This
move was first seen on MTV in 1987 and has been performed many times since then.
The dancer places one hand on the back of their neck and waves the other hand
right in front of them in while spinning in a circular motion. The Sprinkler is
another imitation dance move imitating the motion of a garden sprinkler. This
move often seen in many of their on stage performances and music videos such as
for the 1987 song Sweet Child O' Mine.ħ. This move is famously known to be the
signature dance move of lead vocalist Axl Rose of rock band Guns N' Roses as he
was usually glued to the mic stand. The Snake is a dance move where the dancer
sways their head and shoulders around side to side. It is commonly done as a
happy dance or a little celebratory move after a victory.Ħ. It was derived from
the popular children's toy doll at the time called The Cabbage Patch Kids,
described how to do the dance in 1987. This move was popularized by the Gucci
Crew II after their song The Cabbage Patch. It is a dance move in which the
dancer moves their fists held out in front of them horizontally in either a
clockwise or counter clockwise circular motion sometimes along with the
shoulders or upper torso. The Cabbage Patch, in some ways is similar to a move
termed as Churning Butter. Biz Markie himself often performs this move in the
beginning of his stages performance with his back towards the audience. This
move was created and popularized by Biz Markie after his songs Biz Dance and
Return of the Biz Dance described this move starting in 1986. The Biz is a dance
move in which the dancer hops one foot to the side and swings their arm out to
the other side with the opposite arm, along with their hip popped out at the
same time. It can be seen in many music videos such in It Takes Two by the duo
Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock from 1988. This move was created and popularized in the
80s by B-Fats' song Woppit which described how to do this dance in 1986. The Wop
is a dance move in which the dancer punches their arms up to the opposite side.
There are many variations with this move such as with pointing and mixing in
some other moves in between in such as the Dirt Off the Shoulder move. The Prep
is a dance move in which the dancer takes a step to one side and points their
fingers with palms flat upwards to the side. This move was popularized by the
King of Pop, Michael Jackson, when he first performed this popping illusion
during his performance of Billie Jean on Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever in
1983, this move has been recorded as far back as in the 30's.Ģ.

The Moonwalk, also known as the Backslide or the Glide, is a dance move in which
the dancer glides backwards while appearing to be walking forward.

youngest orbiter arrives at her final destination in pristine condition.įor the
last several months, engineers have meticulously measured and re-measured street
corners, light posts, electrical and telephone wires, and tree heights to obtain
accurate clearance data for Endeavour’s wings and tail along a well-planned
route spanning 12-miles from Los Angeles International Airport to the CSC. Of
primary concern is not only Endeavour’s safety as she is moved through the open
city streets, but also in preserving her condition as an intact icon of space
program history.

Moving Endeavour – Safely and securely navigating Los Angeles city streets:įor
months, engineers from NASA, the California Science Center (CSC), and the city
of Los Angeles have been making preparations for the difficult task of
maneuvering Endeavour safely through the streets of LA. The unprecedented effort
to haul a space vehicle through the cramped streets of the United States’
third-largest city has been all-but completed as engineers from Los Angeles,
NASA, and the California Science Center undertook the monumental task of
navigating Space Shuttle orbiter Endeavour to her final resting place at the
California Science Center.

The judge was particularly interested in learning whether any members of the
jury pool - drawn from a wide area in and around New York City - could remain
impartial after suffering sexual harassment or having bad experiences with law
enforcement. Some prospective jurors said they had heard of Epstein but not
Maxwell while others said they had heard of both. Wearing a black mask that
matched her robe, Nathan reminded prospective jurors that Maxwell must be
considered innocent until a verdict at her trial. Most of the two dozen
spectators spaced apart to guard against the coronavirus were journalists.
Nathan expects to question about 230 potential jurors, identified only by
number, over several days as Maxwell observes along with her lawyers from a row
behind prosecutors. Hundreds were dismissed after filling out a written
questionnaire. Nice to see you in person," Nathan greeted one potential juror,
alluding to two videos that about 600 prospective jurors had watched of the
judge describing the case and the jury selection process. Prosecutors allege she
and Epstein exploited girls as young as 14 between 19. The sex-trafficking trial
of Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged “madam” started Monday. Illustrator Jane Rosenberg,
who’s at the Ghislaine Maxwell trial, created a picture of the weird encounter
that went viral. However, she said Maxwell is not the first famous defendant to
try her hand at courtroom artistry.Ĭult leader Charles Manson used to draw his
sketch artist in court, she added. Williams, who has covered many high-profile
trials, including Harvey Weinstein’s, has never been drawn by a defendant. Get

coverage “She’s not exactly an intimidating person! The second time she did it,
she turned right around to us. But whatever the reason, it didn’t creep us out.
“Maybe she was trying to psyche us out, or perhaps she was just missing human
contact. The sex-trafficking trial of Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged “madam”
Ghislaine Maxwell started Monday. “She stared right at us, and it was definitely
an odd moment. “It was like she didn’t think anyone would notice,” Williams said
of the initial staring and drawing encounters. She did it a second time during
jury selection.įellow illustrator Jane Rosenberg, who’s also at the Maxwell
trial and was also drawn by Maxwell, created a picture of the weird encounter
that went viral. Williams was at Maxwell’s November pre-trial hearing when she
said the British heiress, seated between her two lawyers, looked back at her and
began staring while apparently drawing her, the Sun reported Friday.

New York-based Illustrator Elizabeth Williams has 40 years of experience drawing
people in court but says it was a first when Maxwell, on trial for
sex-trafficking, started sketching her. Turns out Ghislaine Maxwell really is a
sketch artist. Ghislaine Maxwell ‘ties’ to NYC exec to be removed from ex-teen
