PRINCE WILLIAM MOONSHINE By Charlotte Cain1 It was 3 o’clock in the morning on March 26, 1919. A blockade was in place on the one-lane dirt road just past the bridge on Fisher’s Hill, Shenandoah County. It was suspected that bootleggers would be making a run from Baltimore to Danville, Virginia, and the Prohibition officers were determined to catch them. An old Ford crossed the bridge and came to a sudden stop. Quickly the car reversed, attempting to make a tight turn and re-cross the bridge. Officer William C. Hall leapt onto the running board of the turning car and several shots were fired. The car veered into the embankment and came to a sudden stop. Inside the car the driver slumped over the steering wheel dead, shot twice in the chest. The passenger was mortally wounded. Prohibition officer in charge, William C. Hall and three fellow officers were arrested and charged with the murder of Raymond C. Shackelford and IN THIS ISSUE Library of Congress Digital Images Lawrence D. Hudson.

Young Americans to Emotional Rescue: Selected Meetings
YOUNG AMERICANS TO EMOTIONAL RESCUE: SELECTING MEETINGS BETWEEN DISCO AND ROCK, 1975-1980 Daniel Kavka A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2010 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Katherine Meizel © 2010 Daniel Kavka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Disco-rock, composed of disco-influenced recordings by rock artists, was a sub-genre of both disco and rock in the 1970s. Seminal recordings included: David Bowie’s Young Americans; The Rolling Stones’ “Hot Stuff,” “Miss You,” “Dance Pt.1,” and “Emotional Rescue”; KISS’s “Strutter ’78,” and “I Was Made For Lovin’ You”; Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy“; and Elton John’s Thom Bell Sessions and Victim of Love. Though disco-rock was a great commercial success during the disco era, it has received limited acknowledgement in post-disco scholarship. This thesis addresses the lack of existing scholarship pertaining to disco-rock. It examines both disco and disco-rock as products of cultural shifts during the 1970s. Disco was linked to the emergence of underground dance clubs in New York City, while disco-rock resulted from the increased mainstream visibility of disco culture during the mid seventies, as well as rock musicians’ exposure to disco music. My thesis argues for the study of a genre (disco-rock) that has been dismissed as inauthentic and commercial, a trend common to popular music discourse, and one that is linked to previous debates regarding the social value of pop music. -
James Longstreet and the Retreat from Gettysburg
“Such a night is seldom experienced…” James Longstreet and the Retreat from Gettysburg Karlton Smith, Gettysburg NMP After the repulse of Lt. Gen. James Longstreet’s Assault on July 3, 1863, Gen. Robert E. Lee, commanding the Army of Northern Virginia, knew that the only option left for him at Gettysburg was to try to disengage from his lines and return with his army to Virginia. Longstreet, commander of the army’s First Corps and Lee’s chief lieutenant, would play a significant role in this retrograde movement. As a preliminary to the general withdrawal, Longstreet decided to pull his troops back from the forward positions gained during the fighting on July 2. Lt. Col. G. Moxley Sorrel, Longstreet’s adjutant general, delivered the necessary orders to Maj. Gen. Lafayette McLaws, commanding one of Longstreet’s divisions. Sorrel offered to carry the order to Brig. Gen. Evander M. Law, commanding John B. Hood’s division, on McLaws’s right. McLaws raised objections to this order. He felt that his advanced position was important and “had been won after a deadly struggle; that the order was given no doubt because of [George] Pickett’s repulse, but as there was no pursuit there was no necessity of it.” Sorrel interrupted saying: “General, there is no discretion allowed, the order is for you to retire at once.” Gen. James Longstreet, C.S.A. (LOC) As McLaws’s forward line was withdrawing to Warfield and Seminary ridges, the Federal batteries on Little Round Top opened fire, “but by quickening the pace the aim was so disturbed that no damage was done.” McLaws’s line was followed by “clouds of skirmishers” from the Federal Army of the Potomac; however, after reinforcing his own skirmish line they were driven back from the Peach Orchard area. -
Using the 5Ps Leadership Analysis to Examine the Battle of Antietam: an Explanation and Case Study
Journal of Leadership Education Volume 11, Issue 1 – Winter 2012 Using the 5Ps Leadership Analysis to Examine the Battle of Antietam: An Explanation and Case Study Bradley Z. Hull, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Logistics Department of Management, Marketing, and Logistics John Carroll University University Heights, OH [email protected] Scott J. Allen, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Management Department of Management, Marketing, and Logistics John Carroll University University Heights, OH [email protected] Abstract The authors describe an exploratory analytical tool called The 5Ps Leadership Analysis (Personal Attributes, Position, Purpose, Practices/Processes, and Product) as a heuristic for better understanding the complexities of leadership. Using The 5Ps Leadership Analysis , the authors explore the leadership of General Robert E. Lee of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia and General George B. McClellan of the Union Army of the Potomac—more specifically, the leadership of the two generals on September 17, 1862 during the Battle of Antietam. The paper concludes with suggestions for application in the classroom. Introduction This case study examines how two organizations compete and how two leaders can influence change and success given their resources. One organization is small and underfinanced with antiquated equipment. The other is large, well financed, and organized along traditional lines where each part of the organization operates autonomously and is coordinated by top levels of management. This type of confrontation between a small organization and a large competitor occurs often in American business. Two relevant examples might be Dell (in its early days) versus Compaq and Amazon.com (in its early days) versus Barnes and Noble or the now bankrupt Borders. -

University of Virginia Press, $39.50 ISBN 9780813939278 John Pope, the Army of Virginia, and the Road to Hard War Civil War historians find the political motives behind Union squabbles in the Eastern Theater fascinating. Scholars and lay readers alike can count on a constant barrage of books on the high command of the Army of the Potomac, for instance, replete with well-worn accounts of backstabbing by George McClellan, Fitz John Porter, and Joseph Hooker. Over the past several years, however, a critical mass of innovative literature by young scholars such as Timothy Orr and Jonathan White has emerged to investigate the rich intersections of soldier ideology and command politics, adding to earlier pioneering work by historians such as John Hennessy. Instead of debating how many Union soldiers embraced emancipation, as scholars of the 1990s and early 2000s did, historians now want to know what that undeniable ideological divide meant for command and control. -

Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics Stanford University Stanford, California THE CONTROL AND USE OF LIBRATION-POINT SATELLITES by Robert W. Farquhar SUDAAR NO. 350 July 1968 Prepared for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Under Grant NsG 133-61 '3 t ABSTRACT This study is primarily concerned with satellite station-keeping in the vicinity of the unstable collinear libration points, L1 and L2. Station-keeping problems at other libration points, including an "isosce- les-triangle point," are also treated, but to a lesser degree. A detailed analysis of the translation-control problem for a satel- lite in the vicinity of a collinear point is presented. Simple linear feedback control laws are formulated, and stability conditions are deter- mined for both constant and periodic coefficient systems. It was found that stability could be achieved with a single-axis control that used only range and range-rate measurements. The station-keeping cost with this control is given as a function of the measurement noise. If Earth- based measurements are available, this cost is very Pow. Other transla- tion-control analyses of this study include (1) solar-sail control at the Earth-Moon collinear points, (2) a limit-cycle analysis for an on-off :b control system, and (3) a method for stabilizing the position of the mass center of a cable-connected satellite at a collinear point by simply changing the length of the cable with an internal device. b, For certain applications, a satellite is required to follow a small quasi-periodic orbit around a collinear libration point. Analytical estimates for the corrections to this orbit due to the effects of non- linearity, eccentricity, and perturbations are derived.
