On 4 April 1862, Major General George McClellan marched his 121,500-strong Army of the Potomac from Fort Monroe toward Richmond. Blocking his path were Major General John B. Magruder's Warwick-Yorktown Line fortifications and the Confederate ironclad CSS Virginia. Despite outnumbering Magruder almost four to one, McClellan was tricked by Magruder's bluff of strength and halted his advance. Yorktown, the scene of Washington's 1781 victory over Cornwallis, was once again besieged. It was the Civil War's first siege and lasted for twenty-nine terrible days. Just as McClellan was ready to bombard Yorktown, the Confederates slipped away because of his delays, McClellan lost the opportunity to quickly capture Richmond and end the war. Historians John V. Quarstein and J. Michael Moore chronicle the Siege of Yorktown and explore its role in the 1862 Peninsula Campaign and the final battles surrounding Richmond.

Maintaining maritime dominance against near peer adversaries will tax an already complex logistics structure that depends upon freedom of movement to deliver critical materiel required to sustain operations. While the U.S. Navy is proficient in delivering fuel and other materiel via underway replenishment, it also depends heavily upon a network of airports and seaports. The Combat Logistics Force, operating from these facilities, carries this materiel and moves it the last tactical mile; however, the Mark 41 Vertical Launch System (VLS) represents a critical vulnerability as it can only be reloaded while a ship is in port. Additionally, the Navy relies heavily upon access to port facilities that are often in range of potential adversaries possessing anti-access and area denial weaponry. Protecting this infrastructure and sustaining naval operations requires the cooperation of the other Services to provide air defense, force protection, and just-in-time delivery of munitions via inter-theater air transport. A review of naval operations in the 20th Century reveals operational insights and specific requirements for addressing MK 41 VLS replenishment in austere ports and anchorages. To minimize the burden on the Services for transportation and force protection and to gain increased agility in conducting prolonged combat operations at sea, the Navy should develop a balanced logistics and auxiliary tender force.This compilation includes a reproduction of the 2019 Worldwide Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community.Hypothetical Vignette * Chapter 1: Problem Defined * Chapter 2: The Historical Context * Chapter 3: How China May Exploit This Vulnerability * Chapter 4: Implications For Joint Force * Chapter 5: Options To Improve Vls Reloading CapabilitiesThe Peoples Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) and Peoples Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) have the ability to overwhelm U.S. Navy (USN) carrier strike groups with anti-ship cruise missiles (ASCMs), causing surface combatants to expend large numbers of surface-to-air missiles, depleting their defensive munitions. Several other near peer adversaries possess similar Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) capabilities to contest United States (U.S.) military operations. A Navy carrier strike group has the ability to defeat an initial attack but a significant expenditure of missiles, fired from the MK 41 Vertical Launch System (VLS), would diminish its capacity to withstand repeated attacks. The MK 41 VLS limiting factor is its reloading process, which requires the ship to be stable with minimal pitch, roll, and yaw. These conditions rarely occur in the open ocean. Lacking the ability to replenish VLS munitions at sea, a Navy carrier strike group would have to return to port in order to rearm its VLS missiles. During a conflict, the port in which rearming is conducted would require protection from adversary attack. In the event of conflict with a near peer adversary possessing weapons capable of striking the reloading port, the Navy may not be able to conduct VLS reloading at preferred port facilities due to threat of attack or actual damage to key facilities. The Navy may have to withdraw to another port outside the range of likely enemy attack in order to rearm its VLS equipped ships. Unfortunately, withdrawing from the battlespace risks ceding initiative to the adversary, which will slow the tempo of combat operations and present risk for the Combatant Commander. The Navy must have a means to conduct VLS re-arming operations away from its primary ports in order to conduct extended combat operations.

PETERBOROGH Please Slow Down is the story of a small town with a rich history set on Victoria's spectacular Great Ocean Road. It is a story about nation building, intrepid pioneers, mysterious shipwrecks and generations of families linked by the enjoyment of summer holidays. The town's first resident, James Meek, explorer, gold miner, artist, writer and entrepreneur, sank a well and built a hut in 1855. Inspired by his descriptions of the surrounding fertile lands, other pioneers followed. They built productive farms from rugged wilderness, cooked on open fires and gave of their time and talents to build a tight-knit community. As holidaying became a feature of life for increasing numbers of Australians in the early 20th century Peterborough thrived as a seaside hub. Visitors were drawn by its safe, sandy beaches, breathtaking scenery, abundant fishing and the hospitality of the Irvine family's guesthouse and later, hotel. Decade after decade, generations of the same families returned, reassured, as one childhood visitor recalled "that next year it would be the same, and it always was." Summer days were filled with surfing, golfing, tennis, boating, picnics, gymkhanas and sandcastle competitions for children. In the evenings, friends gathered for singalongs, danced and donned their finest for the New Year's Eve costume balls and other events. From their vantage point on the Shipwreck Coast, Peterborough residents witnessed some of Australia's most notorious shipwrecks of the 19th and 20th centuries. Some of these remain shrouded in mystery and are explored in these pages. Not surprisingly, such a town produced more than its share of larger-than-life characters who worked hard and played hard. Fortunately, some wrote down their stories. Others are remembered with fondness by their family and friends, especially author Michael Moore, who first came to Peterborough as a child in the 1940s.

En kritisk og satirisk skildring af nogle af de emner, som mange amerikanere har diskuteret efter terrorangrebet 11. september 2001

Attempting to correct conventional critical perspectives that diminish the significance of religious elements found throughout Nathaniel Hawthorne's fiction, this project seeks to both defend Hawthorne against suspicions of moral ambivalence respecting his conception and treatment of sin, and to characterize the nature of Hawthorne's understanding of sin in his novels and tales as essentially traditional, yet paradoxical. In the opening chapter, critics who follow Henry James in questioning the earnestness of Hawthorne's handling of sin are answered with evidence from The Scarlet Letter and The Marble Faun , novels about sin that contain central characters who, while grappling with guilt, view themselves as sinners. The following chapter argues that Hawthorne's recurring interest in the fall and original sin in his short fiction and finally in his last published novel serves as further proof of Hawthorne's religious sincerity. Rejecting The Marble Faun as a meditation on felix culpa , the novel is rather shown to portray human nature as a fallen middle estate between the innocent beasts and holy angels. In the subsequent chapter, the three novels preceding The Marble Faun are shown to illustrate themes relating to social sins, such as deceit, greed, and exploitation, revealing an author deeply concerned with the subject of sin from a distinctly Christian outlook. That Hawthorne appears to maintain a firm belief in the depravity of man, a Calvinist proposition, while espousing a view of redemption calling for human effort more than divine assistance, a Unitarian tenet, indicates the author's full statement on sin and redemption radiates paradox. Reviewing noteworthy tales and sketches as further confirmation of what is found in the published novels, the final chapter suggests this inherent paradox of sin and redemption sheds light on the mystery of thematic ambiguity characterizing much of Hawthorne's fictional work.

"The goal of this project was to produce a useable software development system for the Digital Group M6800 microcomputer. The design was to have implemented the command language of the Digital Group Z-80 operating system and and have the capability of assembling source programs written using the Motorola M6800 assembly language mnemonics. The program developed to fulfill these requirements was assembled using the Motorola M6800 cross assembler and occupies approximately 7K bytes of memory. The functions provided include an editor package for the entry and modification of source programs, an assembler which meets the design goal and a debugger package to facilitate the checkout and execution of the programs which will be developed using this system."--Abstract.

The components of students' perceptions of fairness for written examinations were deconvoluted and evaluated through qualitative and quantitative means. These perceptions are important for maintaining and developing student motivation, instructor/institutional reputation, and an internal locus of control for students. All methods of analysis showed the consistent result that the test's representativeness of the course material was the most important factor in shaping fairness perceptions toward it: comments about representativeness comprised 48 % of free-form sentiments about tests (out of 8 possible categories) and ratings of tests' representativeness showed the strongest correlation with ratings of fairness out of all factors tested (standardized odds ratio: 3.6 for chemistry students). The second greatest correlation with fairness ratings was assigned grades (standardized odds ratio: 2.9). After controlling for assigned grades, the correlations between fairness ratings and differences in grade expectations were inconsistent and weak. Little/no additional predictive power for fairness perceptions was gleaned by considering factors such as the difference between students' performance estimates before and after writing their midterm nor the difference between estimates of test performance compared with actual test performance. Several recommendations come from this work. It is essential to communicate course priorities clearly. Communication of prioritization occurs implicitly (through how much time the instructor chooses to spend on certain areas) and explicitly (through direct instruction and grade weighting). The messages of both communication methods should be aligned. If this cannot occur, then there should be direct communication acknowledging and justifying this. Failure to achieve this alignment and communication correlated with lower fairness perceptions, feelings of test representativeness, and grades, all of which are linked with student motivation. If a test question (or several) were found to be flawed, perceptions of fairness can be salvaged through the removal of that question from the test. This removal should be made public and with concise justification. It is imperative that only one revision event occurs: multiple revisions (especially those that decrease grades) communicate negligence to students.

Accelerating compression of both revenues and profits may rapidly prove fatal to traditional businesses. Consider the accelerating decline of voice calls as a means of communicating via mobile telephone: From 2013 to 2015, average mobile voice revenue per user declined globally by 19%, and a further decline of 26% is expected through 2020. To stave off disaster, incumbents must transform and renew their core operations — while also growing into new businesses and industries.
