Wabash Men Tackling Community Serviceby Howard Hewitt • September 12, 2012 Share:
Wabash College men will spread out across the country again this weekend to serve their communities. Wabash Day is an annual fall event coordinated by the National Association of Wabash men.
Wabash men will tackle projects from Crawfordsville to San Francisco and from Madison Wisconsin to Austin, Texas, and all points in between.
Although many of our alumni contribute substantially to their communities, year round, Wabash Day is a weekend we set aside to do good work together," said 2012 Wabash Day Chairman Ross Dillard '07. Wabash alumni will be giving back at food banks, veterans' homes, city parks and at a variety of other projects."
You can see a detailed look at Wabash projects and project leaders on this Google Map.
There is a big push this year to set an all-time turnout record in Crawfordsville. "Wabash students will follow the lead of the alumni by spending the day on projects to better their hometown of Crawfordsville," Dillard said.
Montgomery County projects include Habitat for Humanity, Montgomery County Free Clinic, Crawfordsville Youth Football League, Vanity Theater, Animal Welfare League, City of Crawfordsville, Sugar Creek Clean-up, Lew Wallace Study, Sportsman's Club, Old Jail Museum, and Baldwin Field.
WABASH Day T-shirts will be given to the first 300 students showing up for work Saturday morning.
"Overall, it should be a great weekend as the Wabash family comes together to recognize the importance of community leadership and community service," Dillard said.

Ambisonic credentials
I have joined this Wiki because it looks like you guys have an interest in Ambisonics. I can help with this. I have been following Ambisonics since 1977, and have owned an Ambisonic decoder (a Minim AD7) since 1994. I also created and maintain the Ambsonic Surround Sound FAQ. More recently, I was involved in defining the ".amb" specification for dowloadable B-Format files. However, I do not work in pro-audio; I am just a domestic listener.
Ambisonics on XiphWiki
I found that the Ambisonics page on this Wiki had been marked for deletion. I removed this, and created a page discussing some of the problems of handling Ambisonics in the future. I also discuss how to perform channel conversions from Ambisonic B-Format to Mono and Stereo.
External resources on Ambisonics
- There is now a set of Wikipedia articles on Ambisonics.
- Of particular relevance is the ".amb" specification for downloadable B-Format files. There are currently over 75 pieces available in this format for free download. Most of these are first-order full-sphere soundfields. The ".amb" spec has some limitations which it would be useful to overcome.
- My website has many pages on Ambisonics (including at the bottom links to other Ambisonic websites).

A port of wxWidgets.
This is the base api of wxWidgets. This module contains functions for starting and stopping the wx-server, as well as other utility functions.
wxWidgets is object oriented, and not functional. Thus, in wxErlang a module represents a class, and the object created by this class has an own type, wxCLASS(). This module represents the base class, and all other wxMODULE's are sub-classes of this class.
Objects of a class are created with wxCLASS:new(...) and destroyed with wxCLASS:destroy(). Member functions are called with wxCLASS:member(Object, ...) instead of as in C++ Object.member(...).
Sub class modules inherit (non static) functions from their parents. The inherited functions are not documented in the sub-classes.
This erlang port of wxWidgets tries to be a one-to-one mapping with the original wxWidgets library. Some things are different though, as the optional arguments use property lists and can be in any order. The main difference is the event handling which is different from the original library. See wxEvtHandler.
The following classes are implemented directly as erlang types:
wxPoint={x,y},wxSize={w,h},wxRect={x,y,w,h},wxColour={r,g,b [,a]}, wxString=unicode:charlist(), wxGBPosition={r,c},wxGBSpan={rs,cs},wxGridCellCoords={r,c}.
wxWidgets uses a process specific environment, which is created by wx:new/0. To be able to use the environment from other processes, call get_env/0 to retrieve the environment and set_env/1 to assign the environment in the other process.
Global (classless) functions are located in the wx_misc module.
new() -> wxObject()
new(Options::[Option]) -> wxObject()
destroy() -> ok
get_env() -> wx_env()
Gets this process's current wx environment. Can be sent to other processes to allow them use this process wx environment.
See also: set_env/1.
set_env(Wx_env::wx_env()) -> ok
null() -> wxObject()
is_null(Wx_ref::wxObject()) -> boolean()
getObjectType(Wx_ref::wxObject()) -> atom()
typeCast(Old::wxObject(), NewType::atom()) -> wxObject()
Casts the object to class NewType. It is needed when using functions like wxWindow:findWindow/2, which returns a generic wxObject type.
batch(Fun::function()) -> term()
Batches all wx commands used in the fun. Improves performance of the command processing by grabbing the wxWidgets thread so that no event processing will be done before the complete batch of commands is invoked.
foreach(Fun::function(), List::list()) -> ok
Behaves like lists:foreach/2 but batches wx commands. See batch/1.
map(Fun::function(), List::list()) -> list()
Behaves like lists:map/2 but batches wx commands. See batch/1.
foldl(Fun::function(), Acc::term(), List::list()) -> term()
Behaves like lists:foldl/3 but batches wx commands. See batch/1.
foldr(Fun::function(), Acc::term(), List::list()) -> term()
Behaves like lists:foldr/3 but batches wx commands. See batch/1.
create_memory(Size::integer()) -> wx_memory()
Creates a memory area (of Size in bytes) which can be used by an external library (i.e. opengl). It is up to the client to keep a reference to this object so it does not get garbage collected by erlang while still in use by the external library.
This is far from erlang's intentional usage and can crash the erlang emulator. Use it carefully.
get_memory_bin(Wx_mem::wx_memory()) -> binary()
retain_memory(Wx_mem::wx_memory()) -> ok
Saves the memory from deletion until release_memory/1 is called. If release_memory/1 is not called the memory will not be garbage collected.
release_memory(Wx_mem) -> term()
debug(Level::term()) -> ok
Level = none | verbose | trace | driver | [Level]
Sets debug level. If debug level is verbose or trace each call is printed on console. If Level is driver each allocated object and deletion is printed on the console.
demo() -> ok

Yup. Everything about it was just terrible.
by misac » Tue Jul 16, 2013 6:21 pmDeadpool v.1: Dead Presidents – This is more like it! I like those guys' podcast so I liked the humor. Some of the one liners are dumb but they make me smile. I think the montage and the satellite were my favorite bits.
I really liked Deadpool's new sidekick. I didn't like that Agent Preston was killed but at least she'll still be around.
Art was great, Tony Moore! But I did have a complaint, Deadpool was drawn a lot of times without his mask. Made me think that if they do a movie it would be a lot like this.

by theflyingwaffle » Tue Jul 16, 2013 7:57 pmPicked up a couple of Hardcovers from half Priced books today. They were still in the shrink wrap and everything.
Avenging Spider-man vol. 1- Fun read. It was kind of nice taking a break from the Superior Spider-man and reading a series with good ol' wise cracking Peter Parker again.
Steve Rogers Super Solider- Haven't read it yet, but it looks interesting.

His work on Uncanny X-Force was just messy and incomplete. Almost like he said "fuck it" in the middle of working on it and just turned it in.
by Keb » Wed Jul 17, 2013 4:17 pmYeah, I saw his name pop up somewhere in the Hickman F4 run and though "Oh god" but it wasn't as bad. I guess he filled in or phoned that shit in because it was bad.
Got the final book for the UXF run. Gonna read the last two tonight.

I've never bought anything from Half Priced books, is the service good? do they have good offers?
by Keb » Wed Jul 17, 2013 10:06 pmUncanny X-Force vols. 6 and 7: Final Execution books 1 and 2 - Gotta say I loved the end of this series. Phil Noto was a good choice for the last arc. All the artists were kind of hit or miss. Remender really connected with the characters in this.
Wish he could do that with Rogue in Uncanny Avengers.

Half Priced Books is technically a second hand store, so as far as selection and quality goes I suppose it would vary store to store. It all depends on what people have brought in and sold to the store. In regard to comics, on occasion I have found some hidden treasure there. It is a decent place to check out if you are trying to hunt down some back issues, though they may not necessarily have what you are looking for. Most of their comic issues go for $3 and under which is some cases can be a pretty good deal for older issues. Their trades and graphic novels typically go for approximately half the retail price. The only problem is, they don't tend to pay much attention to the condition of the comics they sell, so in some cases you may end up paying more than the book is worth if you don't check to see what it is going for online.
They also sell movies, cds, vinyls and stuff along those lines.
The one that is near my house has pretty good service overall. Basically what you would expect from a typical book store.

- "So the oldest brother, who was a combative man, asked for a wand more powerful than any in existence: a wand that must always win duels for its owner, a wand worthy of a wizard who had conquered Death!"
- —The Tale of the Three Brothers by Beedle the Bard[src]
Antioch Peverell (fl. 1214) was a pure-blood[3] wizard, the eldest of the Peverell brothers. Antioch, like his brothers, was skilled in the magical arts, but personally was described as being a "combative man". Antioch and his brothers were the inspiration for the The Tale of the Three Brothers and thus the original masters of the Deathly Hallows. Antioch was said to have possessed the Elder Wand, though the exact circumstances of this are unknown.[4]
Meeting Death
In the The Tale of the Three Brothers, the Peverell brothers are described as having received the Hallows from Death himself, after using their magical talents to cross a treacherous river that would have assuredly killed them otherwise, and Antioch, for his prize, asked for "a wand more powerful than any other in existence: a wand that must always win duels for its owner, a wand worthy of a wizard who had conquered Death!" and so Death crossed to an elder tree on the banks of the river, made a wand from a branch, and gave it to Antioch.[5]
Ownership of the Elder Wand and Death
Later, the three brothers separated. Antioch travelled towards a distant village, and met a wizard with whom he had a quarrel. With the Elder Wand as his weapon, Antioch easily won the duel that followed. Leaving his enemy dead, Antioch lodged in an inn to celebrate, where he drunkenly boasted loudly of the powerful wand he had snatched "from Death himself", and of how it made him invincible. That night, as he slept, another wizard crept upon him, stole the wand, and slit his throat to make sure Antioch didn't come after the thief.[5]
Following his death, Antioch was laid to rest in the churchyard by the Parish Church of St. Clementine, in Godric's Hollow, along with his brothers Cadmus and Ignotus.[6]
Antioch was a distant relative of both Tom Marvolo Riddle and Harry Potter, as each was descended from one of his brothers, Cadmus Peverell and Ignotus Peverell respectively.[7]
Personality and traits
According to The Tale of the Three Brothers, Antioch was a man who desired beyond everything to be an all powerful wizard. Although he was already very powerful, he was not satisfied and immediately took his chance to gain a wand from Death that would make him unbeatable.
Antioch's desire for such power made him blind to Death's true intentions, however, and he later proved to be very self-indulgent and weak-willed when he boasted about how powerful his new wand was to the public. Antioch was very irresponsible and unwise in this manner, consuming a dangerous amount of alcohol then leaving his wand and himself unprotected on the night of his murder. Antioch's recklessness and egotism caused him to be the first of the Peverell brothers to fall into Death's cunning hands.
It is possible that the depiction of his personality was just fictionalised by Beedle, and it was unknown what his true personality was. It is possible that his true personality, like Cadmus, was nobler than what is depicted by Beedle. It should be noted his creation, the Elder Wand, contains a Thestral tail hair as its core, a substance that those who are capable of accepting (and not afraid of) death could handle. Since Antioch must do so in order to create the Elder Wand, and those who accept death turn out to be noble and selfless (in the case of Harry Potter), it can be assumed that Antioch is indeed a noble person while simply a little too boastful.
Magical abilities and skills
- Transfiguration: Antioch and his brothers were capable of using Conjuration, a highly advanced form of magic to create a bridge stable enough to walk across (in the tale).
- Martial magic: Antioch was capable of killing an opponent in a duel and coming out of the battle unscathed, though this was mostly due to his wielding of the Elder Wand (according to the tale).
- Owner of the Elder Wand: Antioch was the first wizard to own and tame the Elder Wand, the most powerful wand ever made. However, at least in Beedle's tale, he was portrayed as a person unworthy of possessing such a wand. Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter were qualified to own the Elder Wand because they would never use it for boasting or murder. Antioch had done both (according to the tale).
- Magical manufacturer (possibly): No one knows for certain how Antioch came to posses the Elder Wand. Although The Tales of Beedle the Bard claim that the wand was given to Antioch by Death, others, such as Albus Dumbledore, theorised that Antioch created the wand himself.
His name may be a reference to the city of Antioch, a chief centre of early Christianity.
Behind the scenes
- Albus Dumbledore believed it was more likely that the Deathly Hallows were invented by the Peverell brothers themselves, which would make Antioch the creator of the Elder Wand. Whether the account of his death from The Tales of Beedle the Bard is accurate is unknown. Given that there are no mean for Beedle to know of what really happened, it is assumed that it was simply fictionalised by Beedle.
- In the novel and film his killer slits his throat, but in the console versions of the video game, the thief kills him with the Killing Curse. In LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 however, he was snatched by Death along with his brothers.

Apparently the Peverells were one of the earliest families to vanish.""

Emirates to Double A380 Operations to Munich
Emirates' Dubai – Munich route will become an all-A380 service from 30 March 2014, when the airline deploys its flagship Airbus A380 aircraft on its second daily flight.
Emirates' flights EK49/50 and EK51/52 are currently served by Airbus A380 and Boeing 777-300ER, respectively. The second A380 service will add almost 1,800 seats per week on the route, reflecting Emirates' steadfast commitment to the German market.
Thierry Antinori, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, Emirates said: "This is a significant development for Emirates as Munich is a key airport for us in Germany and in Europe. Passenger demand has been steadily growing and our second A380 will add much needed seat capacity which is essential for us to meet the demand growth of the route and support the expansion of trade, tourism and international investment in Germany. We are also proud to fly our flagship A380 aircraft as a connector of people and cargo between Germany and destinations across the globe, particularly as Germany plays a big role in producing this aircraft."
Christian Ude, Lord Mayor of Munich: "The second daily scheduled service with the Emirates A380 is good news for Munich as a business location and the tourism industry in our region. Due to the capacity increase, even more guests will come to us from the airline's global route network – without increasing the number of flight movements. The two daily A380 flights emphasize the significance of Bavaria as location for the European aviation industry."
Dr. Michael Kerkloh, CEO of Munich Airport GmbH said: "We are very pleased that Emirates will operate Munich twice a day with its flagship Airbus A380 aircraft in the coming year. This decision is clear evidence of the importance and attractiveness of Munich Airport in worldwide air traffic. In November 2011, Emirates was the first foreign carrier to operate scheduled A380 services into Germany. Since then, the A380 has become a real crowd-puller at our airport."
Last month, Emirates operated the second Munich service with an A380 due to high demand. The service proved popular among passengers and aviation enthusiasts alike. Munich Airport offered the "A380 lights bus tour" during this period. The tour offered visitors in the evening a glimpse at the 'behind the scenes' operations of Munich Airport, including advantageous sights of the Emirates A380.
The second daily A380 operation will be serviced with a three-class configuration comprising of 399 seats in Economy Class, 76 fully flat-bed, mini-pods in Business Class and 14 First Class Private Suites.
Since November of 2011, when the first service was inaugurated, over 600,000 passengers have flown the Emirates A380 to and from Munich. The first landing of the A380 to Munich in November 2011 can be viewed here
Germany plays a significant role in the production of Emirates' highly efficient A380s. German aeronautical businesses contribute to the production of the aircraft's engines, wings, ice entertainment system, lighting and Onboard Shower features, and an estimated €280 million is spent each year by Emirates for the operation and maintenance of these components, according to a study by the Institute of Air Transport and Airport Research (DLR). Moreover, the A380 programme alone is estimated to add around 40,000 direct, indirect and induced German jobs.
The regional economy around Munich will also derive substantial benefits as a result of the aircraft upgrade from a B777 to an A380. According to recent Deloitte report titled 'The Economic Value of Sydney Airport', it is estimated that the annual incremental contribution of a B777 to an A380 upgrade amounted to more than €40 million in GDP and added more than 700 jobs in Sydney. Generation of similar economic returns can be expected for Munich and its surrounding areas.
Emirates is the largest A380 operator in the world, with 38 currently in its fleet flying to 22 global destinations.
Emirates flight EK51 departs Dubai at 1630hrs and arrives in Munich at 2010hrs, the return flight EK52 departs Munich at 2140hrs and arrives in Dubai at 0630hrs the following day.

LAST SEASON: 49-29-4, 102 points. Lost to Washington 4-3 in first round.
COACH: Claude Julien, 6th season with Bruins, 228-132-50; 10th overall, 347-218-10-73 in NHL.
ADDED: D Dougie Hamilton (rookie). F Chris Bourque.
LOST: G Tim Thomas (suspended). F Marc Savard (concussions).
PLAYER TO WATCH: G Tuukka Rask. With Thomas, the two-time Vezina Trophy winner, opting to take a year off, the Bruins will rely on former backup Rask as the primary goaltender. He won the job from Thomas in 2009-10, posting a 1.97 GAA. Anton Khudobin will be the backup.
OUTLOOK: The Bruins are essentially the same team that won the Stanley Cup two years ago - with the important exception of Thomas. The enigmatic Conn Smythe Trophy winner from the title run surprised the team by deciding to take a year off to rest. He will be placed on the suspended list.
LAST SEASON: 41-31-10, 92 points. Lost to New York Rangers 4-3 in first round
COACH: Paul MacLean, 2nd season with Senators and NHL, 41-31-10.
ADDED: RW Guillaume Latendresse, D Marc Methot, D Mike Lundin.
LOST: LW Nick Foligno, C Zenon Konopka, LW Nikita Filatov, D Matt Carkner, D Filip Kuba.
PLAYER TO WATCH: D Erik Karlsson's continued emergence as the NHL's top play-making defenseman. The 22-year-old Swede won his first Norris Trophy in only his second NHL season after leading all blue-liners with 78 points (19 goals, 59 assists).
OUTLOOK: A surprising run to the playoffs led to captain Daniel Alfredsson's decision to put off retirement for at least one more season. The Senators have the capacity to build on last year under the firm direction of MacLean, the longtime Red Wings' assistant, who had an impressive debut as a first-time head coach.
