Just a year later, Yager was dropped from Dead Island 2's development, and Sumo Digital was eventually announced as the game's new developer in 2016. Announced in 2014, Dead Island 2 was originally being developed Yager after original Dead Island developer Techland decided to jump ship and start work on the first Dying Light game for Warner Bros. RELATED: A Hollow Knight: Silksong Shadow-Drop Could Kill Two Birds with One Stone Hollow Knight: Silksong's Next Trailer Can Easily Outdo Dead Island 2ĭead Island 2 has one of the most infamous development journeys in gaming history. While Hollow Knight: Silksong and Dead Island 2 aren't quite on the same level in terms of development journeys, with Silksong only being announced in 2019, it's still become an infamously long-awaited title, and its next reveal could easily end up outdoing even Dead Island 2's comeback announcement. Starting development as just a DLC expansion, Hollow Knight: Silksong quickly expanded its scope during development, and is now launching as a fully-fledged sequel to the incredibly successful 2017 Indie hit, Hollow Knight. For many fans, Dead Island 2 hasn't exactly been worth the wait, but when it comes to Hollow Knight: Silksong, that likely won't be the case. Technically announced all the way back in 2014, Dead Island 2 has been in various states of development for almost a decade, and now it's actually out, allowing the masses to play it, and for the most part people think it's fine. Against all odds, Dead Island 2 has been one of those lucky few. There are very few games that enter development limbo and actually manage to come out. ![]() ![]() Log in to our secure site and watch live camera feeds from an Internet-connected computer, anywhere in the world.

Forrest was seriously injured in a car accident in Germany in 1998, and that incarnation of Voivod never regained the momentum they lost during his rehabilitation. Meanwhile, the band recorded four albums as a trio in the mid-to-late 1990s with new member Eric Forrest, nicknamed "E-Force", handling both vocals and bass guitar. Jean-Yves co-founded The Holy Body Tattoo an avant-garde modern dance company based in Vancouver BC and also wrote extensively all the music for it, as well as other electronic music projects, while Denis Belanger isolated himself and eventually started a new project, Union Made. Two of the four founding members (bassist Jean-Yves Thériault and vocalist Denis Bélanger) left Voivod in the early 1990s. Departures of Blacky and Snake, and Eric Forrest-era (1991–2000) Albums like Dimension Hatröss are dominated by unexpected time signatures and both Piggy and Blacky's liberal use of dissonant, unconventional minor chords. Much of the band's sound comes from guitarist Piggy's use of dissonant chords, usually played in the high register of the guitar, combined with Blacky's bass tone and chords as well, used extensively on Nothingface. Other covers include Pink Floyd's " The Nile Song" on their 1993 album The Outer Limits and " 21st Century Schizoid Man" by King Crimson on Phobos. Voivod was one of the first thrash bands from Canada to gain popularity outside of their country's borders, reaching the peak of their global popularity with the 1989 album Nothingface which featured a cover version of Pink Floyd's " Astronomy Domine". Drawing more heavily on hardcore punk than metal influences by this point, Voivod began evolving without the aid of increasing speed and storytelling on the following Dimension Hatross. ![]() Killing Technology (1987) began the band's evolution in earnest, with the character from Voivod's album covers (drawn by drummer Away and named "Korgull" on 1986's Rrröööaaarrr) significantly being depicted in a spaceship. Influenced equally by the new wave of British heavy metal, the burgeoning hardcore punk scene and 1970s progressive rock, Voivod forged a distinctive brand of heavy music that often relied on lyrical themes such as Reagan-era Cold War politics, post-apocalyptic literature and science fiction. Voivod was formed in 1982 in Jonquière, Quebec. From left to right: Away, Piggy, Blacky and Snake. The original Voivod line-up in a 1986 promotional photo. Voivod's most recent studio album, Synchro Anarchy, was released in February 2022. In 2019, Voivod's fourteenth studio album, The Wake, won the Juno Award for Metal/Hard Music Album of the Year. The band won the "Visionary" award at the 2017 Progressive Music Awards. The band found mainstream success in the late 1980s with their fifth studio album Nothingface (1989), which is Voivod's only album to enter the Billboard 200 charts, peaking at number 114. Since 1982, when it was co-founded by guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour, Voivod have released fifteen studio albums, as well as one EP, one live album, two compilations, seven demos and one DVD featuring a live concert. Voivod is also credited as one of the "big four" Canadian thrash metal bands, along with Sacrifice, Razor and Annihilator, and they have been credited for helping pioneer the subgenre of "technical thrash metal". Starting out as a speed metal band, Voivod have added a mix of progressive metal and thrash metal to create their own unique metal style. Voivod's musical style has changed several times since the band's origin in the early 1980s. Their current line-up includes Langevin, Bélanger, Daniel "Chewy" Mongrain (guitar) and Dominic "Rocky" Laroche (bass). The band has had numerous members changes throughout its 41-year career, with Langevin as the only consistent member. The original line-up consisted of vocalist Denis "Snake" Bélanger, guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour, drummer Michel "Away" Langevin and bassist Jean-Yves "Blacky" Thériault. Voivod is a Canadian heavy metal band from Jonquière, Quebec (now Saguenay, Quebec). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Speaking with the family, I learned more about the Marine in grave 322. Abramo compiled over three hours of material in the month of fighting he witnessed. Landing on the beach with engineers of the 4th Division on Feb. Louft fought with the 13th Marines, an artillery regiment his more than 100 film reels likely resulted in more than four hours of content. Shooting at least 89 reels, he probably produced almost four hours of film. Francis Cockrell was assigned to document the work of the 5th Division's medical activities. Other cameramen who survived the entire battle produced significantly more. Genaust, who shot the color sequence atop Suribachi, shot at least 25 reels - just over an hour of film - before he was killed, roughly halfway through the campaign. Most of the cameramen on Iwo Jima used 100-foot film reels that could capture about two and a half minutes of film. Some Marine cameramen were assigned to the front lines of individual units, and others to specific activities, like engineering and medical operations. Beyond a historical record, combat photography from Iwo Jima would assist in planning and training for the invasion of the Japanese main islands. Three of these Marine cinematographers were killed in action.Įven before the battle began, Marine Corps leaders knew they wanted a comprehensive visual account of the battle. Many shot still images, but at least 26 shot motion pictures. More than 50 Marine combat cameramen operated across the eight square miles of Iwo Jima during the battle, which stretched from Feb. More than 6,800 Americans were killed on the island and on ships and landing craft aiding in the attack more than 19,200 were wounded. ![]() That included combat soldiers, but also medical corpsmen, chaplains, service and supply soldiers and others. Iwo Jima, an island in the western Pacific less than 1,000 miles south of Tokyo, was considered a key potential stepping stone toward an invasion of Japan itself.ĭuring the battle to take the island from the Japanese, more than 70,000 Marines and attached Army and Navy personnel set foot on Iwo Jima. Over the past two years of scanning, I have come to realize that our work also enables a more powerful relationship with the past by fostering individual connections with videos, something that the digitizing of the large quantity of footage makes possible. In a partnership between the History Division of the Marine Corps and the University of South Carolina, where I work, we are digitizing these films, seeking to provide direct public access to the video and expand historical understanding of the Marine Corps' role in society. I came across this film clip in my work as a curator of a collection of motion picture films shot by Marine Corps photographers from World War II through the 1970s. ![]() Marine Corps Film Repository, USMC 101863 Two Marines in the Marine Corps' 5th Division cemetery on Iwo Jima pay their respects to a fallen comrade, seen in a 16mm film frame from the United States Marine Corps Film Repository. The sequence is intentionally framed by the cinematographer, who was clearly looking for the right image to end the roll of film in his camera. Those two Marines are among hundreds present to remember the more than 6,000 Americans killed on the island in over a month of fighting. It is in the final frames of a film documenting the dedication of one of the three cemeteries on the island. Take for instance, just one scene: Two Marines kneel with a dog before a grave marker. It can even bring Americans alive today closer to a war that ended in the middle of the last century. A larger library of film, and the men captured on them, is similarly emotionally affecting. But these pictures are far from the only images of the bloodiest fight in the Marines' history. ![]() ![]() If you'll be doing some traveling around the Greater Phoenix area, renting a car is advisable.

Satellites in LEO need to move fast, taking between 90 and 225 minutes to complete one orbit of Earth. The upper limit is about 1,250 miles (2,000 km), just inside the protective shell of Earth's Van Allen radiation belts. To minimize drag on spacecraft from the upper atmosphere and allow for high-resolution close-up views of our planet, 190 miles (300 km) is the lower limit. These are the bright satellites you'll see zipping across the night sky. Satellites that need to closely observe Earth's surface and weather, or that are too heavy to lift into high orbits, are placed in low Earth orbit (LEO). Those satellites pass over the same spot on Earth every 12 hours and are not observable to the naked eye, but they can zip through your telescope's field. This includes the 31 Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites, and the satellites in the navigation networks of Russia (GLONASS), Europe (Galileo), China (BeiDou), India (NavIC) and Japan (QZSS). Spacecraft that need to move around the Earth at a modest rate orbit closer in, around 12,600 miles (20,200 km) above sea level.

When searching the app store, you'll find many apps designed for that purpose, and not skywatching. These are the satellites that you aim your satellite TV dish at. At their extremely distant orbits, the Earth's shadow covers only a small patch of the sky, so they can appear all night long. In the night sky, geosynchronous satellites are concentrated in a strip running several degrees below the celestial equator. While observing with your telescope, you might spot one moving very slowly against the background stars. At that range, this type of satellite will be dim. To do this, they need to orbit above Earth's equator, at 22,236 miles (35,786 km) above sea level. Telecommunication and some surveillance satellites have geosynchronous orbits designed to keep them in view from the same spot on Earth at all times. If you see an object with flashing lights, it's an aircraft. Other than crewed vehicles, satellites do not have lights - and no artificial light in orbit would be bright enough to spot from the ground anyway. Most satellites shine with a steady light, but objects that are tumbling can glow and darken as they travel. The brightness of a satellite depends on its distance from you and on how much sunlight it deflects toward you, which is a function of both its flat surface area and reflectivity. Satellites can also pop into view when they exit the shadow. When a passing satellite seems to disappear, it has entered Earth's shadow - a circular patch of the sky where the sunlight can't reach it. That's why most satellites are seen an hour or two before dawn and after dusk. Orbiting satellites are visible to us because they are high enough overhead to be illuminated by sunlight, even when the sun is below the horizon for ground observers.

You can see why this sort of feature is at odds with security: every specially-programmed exception in the lockscreen opens up a whole new risk.įor example, after you’ve taken pictures on a locked iPhone (a feature, annoyingly, that can no longer be turned off), you can browse and even edit them using the Photos app… If you’re in a panic and in a hurry, the ability to dial 112 (or 911, 999, 000, etc.) without first fiddling with your passcode makes perfect sense.īut many other “use at any time” features are there purely for convenience, such as swiping on the camera icon on a locked iPhone in order to take pictures without authenticating first. Some of these “use at any time” features are there for regulatory reasons, such as the ability to make emergency calls without unlocking the phone. In practice, though, lockscreens have become less about locking your phone, and more about merely limiting the features you can use without knowing the passcode. The benefits of a lockscreen are obvious: it makes it harder for a crook who steals your phone to steal your personal information as well, and it protects you from the sort of childish pranks that some so-called “friends” can’t resist playing if they see your phone unattended. When you next try to use your phone, it pops up a special screen on which you need to put in a secret passcode or scan your fingerprint before you can get back in and access the apps and data on the device. The theory is simple: after a suitably brief interval (we recommend a maximum of two minutes, inconvenience notwithstanding), your phone locks. Lockscreens on mobile phones have become a poisoned chalice. ![]() |
