The key purpose of the Marpart research is to increase the understanding of the emergency management challenges in the Arctic sea areas. Our work includes an assessment of the risk related to different types of maritime activity in the High North and an overview of the responsibilities of the preparedness institutions of Norway and its neighboring countries. We focus on cross-institutional and cross- country partnerships between government emergency response agencies as well as private companies in the Arctic region. The starting point of this research has been the responsibility of the governments as to safety, security and environmental protection in the High North. Maritime preparedness is defined as the system for emergency prevention, preparedness and response. We look into the need for enhanced measures to respond to composite challenges including search and rescue (SAR), oil spill recovery, firefighting and salvage, and actions against terror or other forms of violent and destructive action. MARPART project goals: • To reveal the needs for preparedness related to joint emergency response operations within the preparedness system of the included countries; • To provide analytical concepts for studying coordination challenges in cross- border, combined operations; • To contribute with organizational concepts for inter-organizational partnership and management within emergency response. The cross-disciplinary, international research network established for the Marpart project consists of 16 universities and research institutes. The consortium is coordinated by Nord University in Bodø, Norway. Universities, police and naval academies and research institutes from Norway, Russia, Iceland, Greenland, Denmark and Sweden are now part of the Marpart network. In addition, universities from Canada, USA, and Finland are part of an extended academic network called the UArctic thematic network on Arctic Safety and Security. The project partners have established Advisory Boards in each country including government preparedness authorities and industry representatives. The Marpart projects include two interlinked projects: Marpart 1 “Maritime Preparedness and International Partnership in the High North” and Marpart (2)-MAN “Joint-task Force Management in High North Emergency Response”. These projects have also been closely linked to the Norwegian SARINOR project focusing on gaps in the Norwegian Arctic SAR system. 1 LIST OF AUTHORS Odd Jarl Borch Project Leader, Nord University Business School, Nord University Natalia Andreassen Nord University Business School, Nord University Emmi Ikonen Nord University Business School, Nord University Johannes Schmied Nord University Business School, Nord University Linda Hoel Norwegian Police University College Svetlana Kuznetsova Northern Arctic Federal University named after M.

But she didn’t exactly put her- self in harm’s way. Ranger, commanded by Capt. Gordon Rowe, was part of a task force led by the British Home Fleet Commander in Chief, Admiral Sir Bruce Fraser, in an effort to interdict German shipping in northern waters. Fraser flew his flag in the battleship HMS Duke of York and had with him the fleet carrier HMS An- son, three cruisers and six destroyers. U.S. Rear Admiral Olaf M. Hustvedt added Ranger, the cruiser Tuscaloosa (CA-37) and a destroyer screen to Fra- ser’s force. RANGER TRANSITING PANAMA CANAL.

Sites at this settlement include the Great Enclosure and the Hill Complex, where eight birds carved of soapstone were once supposed to have stood. It was constructed by the Shona people, who protected themselves with high walls built without mortar. For ten points, name this Iron Age settlement that lends its name to an African country with capital Harare. ANSWER: Great Zimbabwe (prompt on Zimbabwe) (2) This man was not given songwriting credit on \Never Learn Not to Love" by the Beach Boys, even though it was derived from this man's song \Cease to Exist." This man's belief in hidden messages on the Beatles' White Album inspired the idea of a \Helter Skelter" race war.

  • The Jerseyman Number 78
    “Rest well, yet sleep lightly and hear the call, if again sounded, to provide Firepower for Freedom…” 2nd Quarter 2013 The Jerseyman Number 78 Springtime on the Delaware River Rich Thrash, Brass Team Volunteer April 1st is a day that always brings a smile to my face. To me it means another cold winter season is history and that nice warm spring and summer days are just around the corner. In my book any day I can put the top down is a good day… On the ship it means that my fellow brass polishers and I will be able to work outside once again and put a shine on those things you just can’t work on in the winter when the wind whips off the Delaware and forces us below decks seeking a warmer place to do our thing. This past winter we’ve spent a lot of time in the lower levels of Turret 2 polishing all the brass in that area, and believe me it’s a target rich environment for brass polishing down there. I’m so happy the Turret 2 Experience will finally be opening to the public this coming weekend. This is something that has been two years in the making and on which a long list of volunteers and staff have worked many hours to give visitors the most realistic experience possible. The first tour of this area will start at 11:00 am this Sunday; tour groups will be limited to a maximum of 15 guests. The price for this new interactive tour is $29.95.

  • Review by Andrew Lambert King’S College, London ______
    A Global Forum for Naval Historical Scholarship International Journal of Naval History December 2007 Volume 6 Number 3 Robert J. Cressman, USS Ranger 1934-1946: The Navy’s First Flattop from Keel to Mast, Washington, DC: Potomac Books, 2003. 451 pp., heavily illustrated. Review by Andrew Lambert King’s College, London ______________________________________________________________________ The USS Ranger was a curious ship. Designed to meet the arbitrary tonnage limits of the Washington Treaty limiting naval armaments at a time when the United States Navy had no operational experience of large carriers, she proved to be a very good aviation platform for biplanes and the first generation of monoplane carrier aircraft, but these qualities came at a price. The ship was lightly built, underpowered and lacked worthwhile protection against underwater damage. That said Ranger served her country well, because her crews sustained very high standards, and the Navy had the good sense to keep her out of the Pacific fighting. By concentrating on the human side of the Ranger’s career Robert Cressman provides a remarkable insight into the making of the Air Navy. This is a book about training; hard, dangerous, sustained training. While he follows the ship on her pre-war and wartime deployments the focus is always on the air group. An endless parade of fresh faced young men that stare out from posed shots, all too many of them mark the fact that they died in training accidents. While the stream of deck accidents and landing milestones can occasionally dull the senses they are the key to the story of this ship, and of the Navy’s air arm.
