Maybury Introduction and Vision The Air Force faces daunting energy challenges that promise only to increase in severity, given the increased global demand for energy, di- minishing global energy supplies, and demands for enhanced environ- mental stewardship. The service spends over $9 billion a year in aviation fuels and over $100 million annually in energy for ground operations associated with space, and tens of millions of dollars in cyber energy to support command and intelligence centers. (Figure 1 shows the pro- portional share of operational energy.) Adversaries increasingly target energy as a center of gravity. To date, more than 3,000 American Sol- diers and contractors have been killed or wounded protecting supply convoys in Iraq and Afghanistan (approximately one life per 30 con- voys), 80 percent of which transported primarily water and fuel. March–April 2012 Air & Space Power Journal | 3 Senior Leader Perspective Aviation 84% Facilities 12% Vehicles and Equipment 4% Figure 1. Cost breakdown of Air Force energy, fiscal year (FY) 2010. (Adapted from Headquarters US Air Force, Air Force Energy Plan 2010 [Washington, DC: Head- quarters US Air Force, 2010], 4, http://www.dm.af.mil/shared/media/document/AFD -101202-066.pdf.) The Air Force report titled Energy Horizons: A Science and Technology Vi- sion for Air Force Energy, 2011–2026 is informed by the Department of De- fense’s (DOD) Energy for the Warfighter: Operational Energy Strategy; the Air Force Energy Plan 2010; and the National Aeronautics Research and Develop- ment Plan.1 The Air Force’s energy vision seeks to “make energy a consider- ation in all we do,” including understanding “how energy impacts the Air Force’s critical capabilities: Global Vigilance, Global Reach, and Global Power.”2 Furthermore, the Energy Horizons report offers a vision of “assured energy advantage across air, space, cyberspace and infrastructure.”3 Air Energy The Air Force is the single largest energy user in the DOD. The service uses more than 2 billion gallons of aviation fuel every year, making it the predominant form (84 percent) of energy consumed and creating one of the Air Force’s largest operational expenses. Operational improvements to new platforms such as the C-17 and F-35 come with burn rates 50 percent to 125 percent more than those of legacy platforms such as the C-141 and F-16.4 Figure 2, representing mobility air forces, combat air forces, and spe- cial air forces, depicts the projected fuel burn of the Air Force through 2040.

Air Force fuel-burn projections. (From Dr. Jackie Henningsen, AF/A9, di- rector, Studies and Analyses, Assessments and Lessons Learned.) In the air domain, the Breguet range equation provides a unifying method for simultaneously measuring the progress of energy effi- ciency, related energy use, and aircraft capabilities:5 Range = In this equation, one can measure improvements to airframe efficiency via increases to the lift-to-drag (L/D) coefficient and reductions in weight of the aircraft (Wpayload + Waircraft). Further, one can measure efficiency gains in propulsion via the specific fuel consumption (SFC) relative to the speed (V). Linking energy to range across these factors establishes a relationship between war-fighter capability and energy-efficiency attributes. Science and technology (S&T) investments in the air domain seek to optimize one or more pertinent elements of the Breguet equation (table 1). These in- clude advancements in aerodynamics, propulsion and power, materials and structures, aviation operations, energy harvesting, and game-changing concepts. Table 1 articulates where the Air Force needs to lead (L); where it should follow (F) by rapidly adopting, adapting, or augmenting the in- vestments of others; and where it should watch (W) investments (other than core mission functions) that it depends upon.

FOXFIRE: THE SELECTED POEMS OF YOSA BUSON A TRANSLATION By Allan Persinger A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee May 2013 ABSTRACT FOXFIRE: THE SELECTED POEMS OF YOSA BUSON A TRANSLATION By Allan Persinger The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2013 Under the Supervision of Professor Kimberly M. Blaeser My dissertation is a creative translation from Japanese into English of the poetry of Yosa Buson, an 18th century (1716 – 1783) poet. Buson is considered to be one of the most important of the Edo Era poets and is still influential in modern Japanese literature. By taking account of Japanese culture, identity and aesthetics the dissertation project bridges the gap between American and Japanese poetics, while at the same time revealing the complexity of thought in Buson's poetry and bringing the target audience closer to the text of a powerful and mov- ing writer.

Empire Unbound - Imperial Citizenship, Race and Diaspora in the Making of South Africa Abstract "Empire Unbound" is an exploration of the history and politics of empire and imperial citizenship that went into the making of South Africa before the Second World War. The making of racial difference in South Africa is often located in the temporal and political terrain that is Apartheid (1948-1994). In this dissertation I look to the history of South Africa in the long nineteenth century and recuperate the frameworks of empire and imperial citizenship in making sense of struggles for belonging. Empire, both as a form of government and imaginary, invokes a degree of scale that exceeds the nation-state. It also historically precedes the nation-state, which has come to exemplify the model form for organizing sovereign polities. In "Empire Unbound" I argue that as South Africa became a self governing territory in the early twentieth century it folded the remnants of empire into its instrumentalities of racial governance.

  • Crude Petroleum Having a Strong Odor (From Sulphur) and Testing High in the Benzine Fraction
    OIL REFINERY TERMS IN OKLAHOMA ARTHUR T. KING University of Tulsa The following list of words was collected by Arthur T. King, graduate student at the University of Tulsa, in the extensive re­ fineries of Tulsa and Oklahoma City. No attempt has been made to collect field terms or common mechanical terms, but when such were found, they were included. Oil men have been very active during the last twenty-five years in compiling glossaries. The standard glossary is that found in A Handbook of the Petroleum Industry, by David A. Day, John Wiley, New York, 1922. All subsequent compilations have drawn heavily on this work. An excellent dictionary of oil terms, particularly for the Southwest, is the Petroleum Dictionary for Office, Field and Factory, 2d ed., by Hollis P. Porter, the Gulf Publishing Company, Houston, 1930. A more recent brief glossary is found in the January-February, 1944, issue of Petroleo Interamericano, published in Spanish by the Oil and Gas Journal, Tulsa, for Latin America. However, the oil industry has expanded so rapidly recently that any glossary soon becomes obsolete in many respects. (D) or (P) after a term indicates that the term has the same meaning in Day or Porter; (PI), that the English term is listed (but not defined) in Petroleo Interamericano. When a term is gen­ eral enough to appear in Webster’s New International Dictionary, 2d ed., this fact is indicated by placing (W) after the term. It does not seem worth while to indicate the appearance of terms in other glossaries available. Approximately four hundred terms are listed and defined which are not found in the glossaries named above.

Title. f1923.d83 2004 972.94Ј03—dc22 2003063010 For Haiti acknowledgments My greatest debt is to the many historians whose research and writing made this book possible. Some are ancestors, like Beaubrun Ardouin, Ga- briel Debien, and C. L. R. James, the others part of a small and scattered group who often work in isolation. John Garrigus was encouraging about the project throughout, and our conversations were crucial in determining the final shape of the book. David Geggus, whose writings have trans- formed the study of the Haitian Revolution, has been a supportive and in- sightful interlocutor over the years. Malick Ghachem has taught me a great deal through his work and our conversations. Stewart King played a crucial role in my early research on the Caribbean. Michel Rolph Trouillot and Carolyn Fick have profoundly influenced the way I think about the revolu- tion. Laennec Hurbon and Michel DeGraff shaped my ideas on Haiti’s cultural history. Richard Turits read some early chapters of the book and gave me encouragement and good advice.
