And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. And the angel said to them, 'Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people; for to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a babe wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a mul- titude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, `Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom he is pleased!'

  • Rethinking Entrapment
    *Reprinted with permission of the publisher, American Criminal Law Review, 2004 RETHINKING ENTRAPMENT Joseph A. Colquitt* Entrapment is when you, the big, bad policeman, put evil thoughts into the mind of an otherwise innocent, law-abiding citizen and so coerce him to commit a crime for which you can then arrest him.1 I. INTRODUCTION Sergeant Frazier's sarcasm may be difficult for some to understand, but a brief look at the rancor surrounding entrapment2 provides context for his sentiments. There are two traditional approaches to entrapment: the subjective3 and objective4 tests. The majority position, subjective entrapment, focuses on the actions of the accused, particularly the predisposition of that accused to engage in the type of crime charged.5 A minority of jurisdictions, by way of contrast, employs the objective model of entrapment, which focuses on the actions of law enforcement and bars over-involvement in inciting criminal activity.6 Law enforcement tends to dislike the objective model because it limits the measures agents can take to apprehend or otherwise discourage criminals.

Davidson’s North Carolina militia, numbering between 600 and 800 men, set up camp on the far side of the river, hoping to thwart or at least slow Cornwallis’ crossing. The Patriots stayed back from the banks of the river in order to prevent Lieutenant Colonel Banastre Tartleton’s forces from fording the river at a different point and surprising the Patriots with a rear attack. At 1 a.m., Cornwallis began to move his troops toward the ford; by daybreak, they were crossing in a double-pronged formation–one prong for horses, the other for wagons. The noise of the rough crossing, during which the horses were forced to plunge in over their heads in the storm-swollen stream, woke the sleeping Patriot guard. The Patriots fired upon the Britons as they crossed and received heavy fire in return. Almost immediately upon his arrival at the river bank, General Davidson took a rifle ball to the heart and fell from his horse; his soaked corpse was found late that evening. Although Cornwallis’ troops took heavy casualties, the combat did little to slow their progress north toward Virginia.

  • Chapter 8: Chronology 1997-2006
    CHAPTER 8: CHRONOLOGY 1997-2006 “No one is ever really interested in the weather until they are impacted by the weather. The same is true of solar weather.” — TSgt. Donald R. Milliman, NCOIC, Detachment 2, 2 nd Weather Squadron (AFWA), Sagamore Hill, MA 1997 10 Jan AF/XOO announced a fundamental change to the way pilots received notice to airman (NOTAM) information. NOTAMs were divorced from weather communications circuits. Pilots would access NOTAMs via common user communication links using World Wide Web (WWW) technology. 6 Jan AWS published the AFW Concept of Operations (CONOPS) for Meteorological Operations Capability (MOC). The document described how AFW would operate and sustain weather systems fielded in the early 21st century. MOC began as an effort to bridge the gap between existing capabilities, near-term planned capabilities, and those required by 2025. Future weather systems had a forecast platform and as much as possible, an automated observing capability. The Forecast System 21 st century (FS21) succeeded existing weather and weather effects information management systems in response to a growing need for more and faster value-added weather information delivered to the warfighter. FS21 supported global in-garrison and deployed Air Force and Army operations. The Observing System 21 st century (OS21) provided enhanced state-of-the-art sensor capabilities, automated as much as was technologically feasible, for in-garrison and deployed surface and upper-air observing requirements. 27 Jan AF/XOWP encouraged AFW Army support units to take advantage of the US Army Intelligence Center’s Staff Weather Officer and NCO course. Recent classes had been severely underutilized.
