Brevet Major General George Armstrong Custer was the regiment's first permanent commander and, like such generals as George S. Patton and Terry De La Mesa Allen in their rise to military prominence, Custer was a believer in blood and guts warfare.

On August 12, 2011, a plaque was unveiled on the Wolff building at Third Ave and La Mesa Bl commemorating Dwan and the Flying A Studios origins in La Mesa, California.

Mesa remembers, " Bruce was cussing and swearing some of the time because you had to work on the number system.

Pei was able to return to hands-on design when he was approached in 1961 by Walter Orr Roberts to design the new Mesa Laboratory for the National Center for Atmospheric Research outside Boulder, Colorado.

Mesa was an innovative programming language developed in the late 1970s at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center in Palo Alto, California, United States.

The Mesa compiler type-checks all uses of imported entities ; this combination of separate compilation with type-checking was unusual at the time.

Mesa was developed on the Xerox Alto, one of the first personal computers with a graphical user interface, however most of the Alto's system software was written in BCPL.

Mesa was the system programming language of the later Xerox Star workstations, and for the GlobalView desktop environment.

Xerox PARC developed Cedar, which was based on Mesa, with a number of additions including garbage collection, better string support, called Ropes, and a native compiler for Sun SPARC workstations.

Mesa had a major influence on the design of other important languages, such as Modula-2 and Java, and was an important vehicle for the development and dissemination of the fundamentals of GUIs, networked environments, and the other advances Xerox contributed to the field of computer science.

Mesa was originally designed in the Computer Systems Laboratory ( CSL ), a branch of the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, for the Alto, an experimental micro-coded workstation.

Mesa was later adopted as the system's programming language for Xerox's commercial workstations such as the Xerox 8010 ( Xerox Star, Dandelion ) and Xerox 6085 ( Daybreak ), in particular for the Pilot operating system.

Within Xerox, Mesa was eventually superseded by the Cedar programming language.

Mesa was a strongly typed programming language with type-checking across module boundaries, but with enough flexibility in its type system that heap allocators could be written in Mesa.

Mesa was the first language to implement monitor BROADCAST, a concept introduced by the Pilot operating system.

* Mesa was the precursor to the programming language Cedar.

Xerox PARC employees argued that Mesa was a proprietary advantage that made Xerox software engineers more productive than engineers at other companies.

* The original Star Desktop evolved into the ViewPoint Desktop and later became GlobalView which was ported to various Unix platforms, such as SunOS Unix and AIX, A Mesa to C compiler was written and the resulting code compiled for the target platform.

These classes are taught by Mesa professors on the University City High School campus.

Between 1996 and 2002, the fifth lane in both directions was constructed between I-5 and SR 91, funded with a sales tax of half a cent approved by Measure M.

In doing so, he also prevents antagonist Dr. Wallace Breen, the Combine's human representative on Earth and Gordon's former administrator at Black Mesa, from escaping via teleporter, thereby killing him.

* Upgrade to State Route 55, Costa Mesa Freeway, from south of its current freeway terminus at 19th Street in Costa Mesa to State Route 1, Pacific Coast Highway, in Newport Beach, potentially via a tunnel.

Previously, SR 905 had a direct connection with SR 125 via two at-grade intersections on Otay Mesa Road.

The Federal Highway Administration approved the continuous roadway via SR 117 and SR 125 from I-5 to the border at Otay Mesa as a non-chargeable ( not eligible for federal interstate construction dollars ) part of the Interstate Highway System in October 1984, and the number was legislatively changed to 905 in 1986.

More recently, the Sheeda have returned, first via something called the Miracle Mesa in the American Southwest which, according to local Native American legend, rotates through other worlds.

Whorf credited Naquayouma as the source of most of his information on the Hopi language, although in 1938 he took a short field trip to the village of Mishongnovi, on the Second Mesa of the Hopi Reservation in Arizona.

On the other hand, Mesa designers adopted the left-pointing arrow '←' character, which took the place of underscore in the Alto keyboard, for the assignment operator.

* November 12, 1966: Mesa, Arizona Bob Smith, 18, took seven people hostage at Rose-Mar College of Beauty, a school for training beauticians.

From this point the party might still have succeeded had they gone up the Rio Grande to its source, or gone by a more northerly route, but the route they took brought them to the very top of Mesa Mountain.

On September 15, 2001, the 42-year old Roque took his Chevrolet S-10 from the Wild Hare sports bar in Mesa where he had reportedly been ranting about immigrants, and drove to the Chevron gas station owned by Balbir Singh Sodhi, who had emigrated from India in 1989.

In 2003 however he was forcwed to resign, and his successor, Carlos Mesa, took over as an independent ( he was never a party member ) in hopes of promoting national unity in the face of nation-wide protests.

In its sequel, Half-Life 2, Gordon is introduced to a dystopian world years after the Black Mesa incident, along with an interdimensional alien overlord force known as the Combine, which took advantage of the interdimensional portals and has established itself as the ruling force on Earth.

He took a break from Marshall in the late 1980s when he started using Mesa / Boogie amplifiers.

With adapting to DRI, the Mesa library finally took over the role of the front end component of a full scale OpenGL framework with varying backend components that could offer different degrees of 3D hardware support while not dropping the full software rendering capability.

In Arizona, the route continued to Tucson, where it took Arizona State Route 77 to Arizona State Route 79, which it followed north to U. S. Highway 60, then west to Mesa, Tempe and Phoenix on Van Buren Street.

In March 1995, Mesa took delivery of its first two regional jets, the Fokker F-70.

Mesa took immediate steps, parking the Jetstreams and Brasilias.
