# Great Sleigh Drive

"The Great Sleigh Drive" (German: Die große Schlittenfahrt) from December 1678 to February 1679 was a daring and bold maneuver using sleighs by Frederick William, the Great Elector of Brandenburg-Prussia, to drive Swedish forces out of the Duchy of Prussia, a territory of his which had been invaded by the Swedes in November 1678.

## Background

Frederick William had previously defeated the Swedes and driven them from Brandenburg at the Battle of Fehrbellin and now faced another punitive Swedish incursion into his territories. The main body of his army was engaged at the siege of the Swedish-held port city of Stralsund on the coast of the Baltic Sea far to the west, so Frederick marched his army to the small town of Preußisch Holland and engaged a small Swedish force occupying the city. The Swedes, having been soundly defeated at the Battle of Fehrbellin, were hesitant to face Frederick William again and decided to retreat to the coast in order to return to Sweden, having already accomplished their goal of looting much of the province and avenging their earlier defeat.

## Sleigh Drive

Most commanders would have simply allowed the Swedes to depart, but Frederick William was particularly aggressive and came across the ingenious idea of commandeering thousands of sleighs from local peasantry to transport his army across the snowy terrain of the Duchy of Prussia to cut off the Swedes' escape route: creating, in effect, a precursor to motorised infantry. Driving over the heavy snow and several frozen lakes, Frederick managed to drive deep into the flanks and rear of the escaping Swedish force, denying them access to the coast and their navy, which would have allowed them to resupply or escape.

## Aftermath

Frederick's forces managed to ride all the way to Memel, completely cutting off the Swedes from the coast. Although the Brandenburg forces never actually managed to force the Swedes to commit to the field in an open battle as Frederick had wanted, many Swedish troops perished in the harsh winter from hypothermia and starvation, and the Swedish army was effectively destroyed. This victory cemented Frederick William's reputation as a great military strategist.

## Significance

Maneuver warfare, or as the Germans call it, Bewegungskrieg, was eventually part of a long-standing tradition of the German military. The Winter Campaign of 1678 and the subsequent Great Sleigh Drive appeared in the German military war journal Militär-Wochenblatt in 1929, in which a (then) relatively unknown Major by the name of Heinz Guderian wrote an article commenting about its use of operational mobility as a decisive factor in victory.

# Coffadeliah Creek

Coffadeliah Creek is a stream in the U.S. state of Mississippi. It is a tributary to Owl Creek.
Coffadeliah is a name derived from the Choctaw language meaning "sassafras grove".
# Mesoreodon

Mesoreodon is an extinct genus of terrestrial herbivore of the family Merycoidodontidae, subfamily Merycoidodontinae (the oreodonts), endemic to North America during the Whitneyan stage of the Oligocene-Miocene epochs (33—20.6 mya) existing for approximately 12.4 million years.

## Taxonomy

The following fossil species are known:
* M. chelonyx Scott, 1893 (type species) - Oligocene/Early Miocene (Arikareean) of the western United States (Idaho, Nebraska, Montana, Wyoming)
* M. floridensis MacFadden & Morgan, 2003 - Late Oligocene of Florida, US (Parachucla Formation)
* M. minor Douglass, 1903 - Oligocene/Early Miocene (Arikareean to Harrisonian) of the western United States (Oregon, Idaho, Nebraska, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming)

## Morphology

It was a large animal and ate the numerous low-growing plants and early grasses that sprung up on the plains of North America. It had a rather robust jaw, and like all oreodonts, sharp canine teeth.
Unlike many other oreodonts, who were restricted to certain habitats and places, Mesoreodon seemed to have been a cosmopolite. Fossils of Mesoreodon have been found in the Miocene deserts of California, the prairies of Nebraska, Wyoming, and South Dakota, southeastern Idaho, John Day Fossil Beds in Oregon, and Florida. In fact, Mesoreodon is the only Florida oreodont known from a complete skeleton, odd, since oreodonts had a continent-wide dominance until their extinction. They lived in all environments, and must have been very adaptable.
Mesoreodon had ossified vocal cords; the only other animal to have these in modern times is the howler monkey. Mesoreodon may have been a "screaming oreodont" using loud noises to intimidate its enemies and rivals.
# Walrus HULA

The Walrus HULA (Hybrid Ultra Large Aircraft) project was a DARPA-funded experiment to create an airship capable of traveling up to 12,000 nautical miles (about 22,000 km) in range, while carrying 500–1000 tons of air cargo. In distinct contrast to earlier generation airships, the Walrus HULA would be a heavier-than-air vehicle and would generate lift through a combination of aerodynamics, thrust vectoring, and gas buoyancy generation and management.
DARPA said advances in envelope and hull materials, buoyancy and lift control, drag reduction and propulsion combined to make this concept feasible. Technologies to be investigated in the initial study phase included vacuum/air buoyancy compensator tanks, which provide buoyancy control without ballast, and electrostatic atmospheric ion propulsion.
The WALRUS could potentially expand and speed the strategic airlift capability of the United States substantially while simultaneously reducing costs. A smaller scale demonstration was scheduled for 2008, when a small scale version of the WALRUS designed to carry only the capacity of a C-130 Hercules (i.e., 18,000 kg or about 40,000 lbs) was expected to fly.
The project was cancelled in 2010.
# Dissolution of the monasteries in Portugal

The dissolution of the monasteries in Portugal was a nationalization of the property of male monastic orders effected by a decree of 28 May 1834 enacted by Joaquim António de Aguiar at the conclusion of the Portuguese Civil War. Portugal thus terminated the state sanction of male religious orders, and nationalized the lands and possessions of over 500 monasteries. The new government hoped to re-distribute land and property among the poorer landowners, but there were few who could buy.

## Background

Although monasteries in Portugal are historically seen to have been crucial centres of religious and intellectual life, they were not immune to controversy. For one, beginning in the 17th century, there was already some emerging concern about the effects that the surge in novices had on the Portuguese economy. There was also a growing distance between the monasteries and secular political life which furthered their controversial status in the country.
The suppression of the monasteries can be traced back to the 17th century when smaller monasteries were forced to dissolve so that their finances could be consolidated into the larger branches of their congregations. This pattern was mainly driven by the enthusiasm for renewal engendered by the formation of the Autonomous Congregation of Alcobaça; however, the situation for smaller monasteries worsened after the 1755 Lisbon Earthquake. This earthquake destroyed a number of Portuguese monasteries, necessitating mass construction projects to rebuild them. Rather than focus on rebuilding all the monasteries, the Portuguese monarchy decided to focus on further consolidating the resources of larger monasteries such as the College of Conceição. This established a precedent which gave the Portuguese government full authority to reform, dissolve, and consolidate Cistercian monasteries at will.

## Decree and reaction

The decree was issued in the name of Joaquim Antinio d'Aguiar on 28 May 1834. Pope Gregory XVI condemned the action and other anti-church measures in an allocution issued on 1 August 1834, Cum pro pastorali.

# Roland Casasola

Rowland William Casasola (14 May 1893 – 29 March 1971), known as "Roland", was a British trade unionist and political activist.
Born in Manchester, Casasola completed an apprenticeship as an iron moulder and joined the Friendly Society of Iron Founders in 1912. He served with the Royal Engineers in France during World War I, and during the war was promoted to corporal.
In 1919, Casasola returned to the UK and became active in the Independent Labour Party (ILP) and the Labour Party. He studied with the National Council of Labour Colleges and continued to work as an iron moulder, now in the merged National Union of Foundry Workers.
Casasola was a leading supporter of William Dobbie's unsuccessful candidacy in Stalybridge and Hyde at the 1931 general election and, as a result, was selected as the Labour candidate for the seat at the 1935 general election. He lost and devoted the next few years to supporting the Republicans in the Spanish Civil War, claiming this was the reason he was not selected to fight the 1937 Stalybridge and Hyde by-election. However, he was selected as Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for Bury at the election expected to take place in 1939 or 1940; when this was cancelled due to World War II, he was instead selected for Stockport, which he fought unsuccessfully at the 1945 general election.
In 1946, Casasola was elected to the executive of the new Amalgamated Union of Foundry Workers, and because Jim Gardner, the union's general secretary, was active in the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB), Casasola became its representative to Labour Party conferences. This enabled him to gain union funding to contest Manchester Moss Side at the 1950 general election, but he came a distant second, and a final contest at Blackburn West at the 1951 general election was also unsuccessful.
During the early 1950s, Casasola was a prominent opponent of German rearmament, moving an unsuccessful resolution on the subject at the Labour Party conference. In 1954, he was elected as chairman of the Foundry Workers, and in 1956 was elected to the National Executive Committee of the Labour Party. He retired from his posts in 1958, and resigned from the Labour Party in 1961 to join the CPGB.
