    Project Number: JLS-0060 The Virtual Joust An Interactive Qualifying Project submitted to the faculty of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ Hyungjoon Kim Justin Liu Patrick Newell Steven Shidlovsky Date: April 15, 2009 Approved: _____________________________________ Jeffrey L. Forgeng, Major Advisor 1 ABSTRACT This project presents a sport of the past using current technologies to recreate the experience of jousting for visitors to the Higgins Armory Museum. Through collaboration with museum staff, intensive historical research, and a rigorous, iterative software development cycle, the project team developed a jousting simulation using technologies that incorporated Java, Flash, TCP/IP sockets, Bluetooth and XML. Nintendo® Wii remotes, embedded in a lance stub and to horse reins, were also used to further simulate realism in the user-application interface. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The project group would like to thank the following people for their support in the successful completion of this project: . Elizabeth Beinke for her assistance in generating graphic samples for the initial design .

Los sirios desafían a los tanques sin más armas que sus deseos de cambio MOISÉS NAÍM 15/05/2011 ¿Cómo explicar que Estados Unidos y Europa estén bombardeando a Trípoli con misiles y a Damasco con palabras? ¿Por qué tanto empeño en sacar al brutal tirano libio del poder y tanto cuidado con su igualmente salvaje colega sirio? Comencemos por la respuesta más común (y errada): es por el petróleo. Libia tiene mucho y Siria, no. Y por tanto, según esta explicación, el verdadero objetivo de la agresión militar contra Libia son sus campos petroleros. Siria se salva por no tener mucho petróleo. El problema con esta respuesta es que, en términos de acceso garantizado al petróleo libio, Gadafi era una apuesta mucho más segura para Occidente que la situación de caos e incertidumbre que ha producido esta guerra. Las empresas petroleras de Occidente operaban muy bien con Gadafi. No necesitaban cambiar nada. Una segunda, y común, manera de contestar la pregunta es denunciando la hipocresía estadounidense: Washington nos tiene acostumbrados al doble rasero y a las contradicciones en sus relaciones internacionales. Esta tampoco es una respuesta muy útil, ya que no nos ayuda a entender las causas de estas contradicciones.

  • Pilot Parishes Launch Local Campaigns Leadership Events Set Strong Pace As Churches Embark on HOF Program
    DENVER Vol. LXMI No. 21 Ninety-six years service to the Gospel M ay 29, 1996 Pilot parishes launch local campaigns Leadership events set strong pace as churches embark on HOF program At a time when young people face enormous moral challenges, six Colorado parishes have stepped for­ ward to offer them hope. Leaders and pastors from St. Augustine in Brighton, St. Clare and St. Mary in Eagle County, Sts. Peter and Paul in Wheat Ridge, Holy Trinity in Arvada, Sacred Heart of Jesus in Denver and St. Jo­ seph in Fort Collins joined Archbishop J. Francis Stafford at two shared leadership events for Hearts on Fire, the five-year archdiocesan capital campaign. “This is our moment,” Archbishop Stafford told ‘pilot parish" gatherings at the John Paul II Center for the New Evangelization May 23 and at St. Joseph Church in Fort Collins May 22. “It is our turn to give God glory. These are the days that will define us. This is the work every one of us will be remembered for by the generations yet to come." The pilot parishes will serve as prototypes for the remainder of the Church of Northern Colorado in its effort to raise $64 million. Members of pilot parishes will receive Hearts on Fire introductory letters from their pastors this week, along with case statements specific to their parishes. Hearts on Fire, which begins at most parishes in the fall, is cff to a remarkable start, with M -6 million in mtgor gift pledges already secured at the archdioc­ esan level. Priests from within the archdiocese have also committed more than $300,000 to the effort, dem­ onstrating their strong support for the campaign.

  • How to Make a Jousting Knight
    MAKE & CREATE Make your own jousting champion and Jousting challenge opponents A tournament was a competition where knights used lances (long, knights stick-like weapons) to joust. They rode their horses at each other very fast and tried to knock the other knight off their horse. Did you know... There would be 3 rounds in each joust. If you hit your opponent’s body with your lance you’d get 1 point, if you hit them so hard that your lance broke you’d get 2 points, and if you knocked them off their horse you’d get3 points. Jousting was a risky and expensive business. Not only could you get seriously hurt or even killed, if you lost you had to either give your opponent your horse and your armour or pay them the equivalent in money.

Le cas de trois grandes écoles publiques d’équitation de tradition Sylvine Pickel-Chevalier 1 Europe is a melting pot of equestrian traditions, combining national characteristics with a shared heritage (Digard, 2007). These are the heirs of royal horse-riding traditions which proliferated during the Renaissance, while earlier medieval equestrian techniques were becoming obsolete (Roche, 2008). This common origin today explains, in part, the connection between European equestrian traditions which, nevertheless, reveal national and regional characteristics.
