Edson and E. Urner Goodman (below) founded the Order of the Arrow at Treasure Island Scout Camp in Pennsylvania in 1915. Goodman stated that the cheerful service of Billy Clark led him create the Order of the Arrow. Billy was helping in the medical tent at camp. As he carried the bed pans full of human waste, he fell and the bed pans emptied on him. Demonstrating a cheerful spirit, Billy started laughing at his predicament. Goodman knew that Scouts who equally demonstrated the Scouting Spirit should be recognized. It was originally called Wimachtendienk or Brotherhood. According to Ken Davis’s Brotherhood of Cheerful Service: A History of the Order of the Arrow, the Order’s ceremonies and rituals were influenced by Chris- tian beliefs, college fraternities, the Lennie Lenape tribe, and freemasonry. From 1915 to 1934, the Order was recognized as an experimental program by the Boy Scouts of America. The National Council adopted the Order as an offi- cial part of the BSA program in 1934.

Zimmer: Is 1 unit per 2 acres a by-right density? Newman: In A-1 you have to have at least two acres per dwelling unit Eager: And that’s with road frontage on a state road? Newman: Yes. Payne: The density is one unit per two acres even though the lot size may be different. The difference is, where I live in Two Rivers the density is less than one unit per two acres even though the lots are about ¾ of an acre, because it’s a cluster subdivision. For the one that was just shown the lot size is two acres and the density is two acres. But you could have it be a quarter of that and still have the rest as an open space and still be at a density of two acres even though the lot sizes are small.

In this system, one (or more) publishers broadcast a mes- sage to many users, who provide cover traffic. These users share their message between two or more servers; as long as one of these is honest, even an adversary with a complete view of the network cannot discover a message’s source. Prior sys- tems require that each user publish a message; however, streaming media tends to have many consumers for every content producer. We take advantage of this for a large performance improvement. To do so, we provide a cryptographic solution to the disruption problem, where dishonest users can corrupt a message by writing noise.

    Re-curating the Accident: Speedrunning as Community and Practice Rainforest Scully-Blaker A Thesis in The Department of Communication Studies Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts (Media Studies) at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada September 2016 © Rainforest Scully-Blaker, 2016 Scully-Blaker iii Abstract Re-curating the Accident: Speedrunning as Community and Practice Rainforest Scully-Blaker This thesis is concerned with speedrunning, the practice of completing a video game as quickly as possible without the use of cheats or cheat devices as well as the community of players that unite around this sort of play. As video games become increasingly ubiquitous in popular media and culture, the project of accounting for and analysing how people interact with these pieces of software becomes more relevant than ever before. As such, this thesis emerges as an initiatory treatment of a relatively niche segment of game culture that has gone underrepresented in extant game and media scholarship. The text begins by discussing spe beginnings on edrunningSpeedDemosArchive.com as a community. and By examiningchronicling its the growth communitys with the emergence of contemporary content hosting sites like YouTube and Twitch, this thesis presents speedrunning as a collaborative and fast-growing community of practice made up of players who revel in playing games quickly. From there, an analysis of space and speed, both natural and virtual, is undertaken with a view to understanding how speedrunning as a practice relates to games as narrative spaces. Discussions of rule systems in games and within the speedrunning community itself follow.

Edwards writes in the obituary in 1882, “No one among all the hired cowards... dared face this wonderful outlaw… until he had disarmed himself and turned his back to his assassins, the first and only time in a career which has passed from the realms of an almost fabulous romance into that of history” (1882).
