The Berlin Decree was issued in Berlin by Napoleon on November 21, 1806, after the French success against Prussia at the Battle of Jena, which led to the Fall of Berlin. The decree was issued in response to the British Order-in-Council of 16 May 1806 by which the Royal Navy instituted a blockade of all ports from Brest to the Elbe.

The decree proclaimed that "the British Isles are declared to be in a state of blockade" and forbade all correspondence or commerce with Great Britain. All British subjects found in the territory of France or its allies were to be arrested as prisoners of war and all British goods or merchandise seized. Any vessel found contravening the decree and landing in a continental port from a port of Britain or its colonies was to be treated as if it were British property and therefore liable to confiscation, along with all of its cargo.

The goal of the so-called Continental System was to force Britain to the peace table by starving her of trade with Europe and thereby wrecking her economy. However, the blockade's effectiveness was difficult to enforce over so vast an area and was generally unpopular among French subjects and allies. Historian Paul Schroeder considers it to have proved an ineffective method of economic warfare.

The Continental System eventually led to economic ruin for France and its allies. Less damage was done to the economy of Britain, which had control of the Atlantic Ocean trade.  Other European nations removed themselves from the Continental System, which led in part to the downfall of Napoleon. 

The Milan Decree, for the same purpose, was issued the following year.

Pit Bull: The Battle over an American Icon by Bronwen Dickey is a book about the history of pit bulls in the United States.

Conception
Bronwen Dickey spent seven years researching with dog experts. For Dickey's efforts she received death threats at book signings.

Content

The book covers the history of the Pitbull, in the United States. It covers how the dog went from beloved family pet owned by likes of Teddy Roosevelt to demonized dog fighting animal owned by the likes of Ed Faron and Michael Vick.

Reception
The book received a mostly positive reception from critics.

This is a very good book... Ms. Dickey has earned her reputation as a first-rate reporter.” —The Wall Street Journal.

Ms. Dickey not only writes about the ebb and flow of public fear and loathing, she takes the reader on a thoroughly comprehensible tour of genetics and behavioral science to explain why breeding never guarantees an individual dog's personality, and shouldn't be used to condemn it.... Picking out one breed to blame is neither warranted nor effective, and a reader of her book will be hard put to disagree." —The New York Times

“Brilliant… A powerful and disturbing book that shows how the rise of the killer-pit bull narrative reflects many broader American anxieties and pathologies surrounding race, class, and poverty… A remarkable study of our capacities for cruelty and compassion toward dogs and other humans, and an eloquent argument for abandoning the fears and prejudices that have made pit bulls in particular the victims of mistreatment.” —Christian Science Monitor

Anti pit bull advocates accused Bronwen Dickey of downplaying the potential danger of pit bull dogs.

Blieckaspis priscillae is a pteraspidid heterostracan agnathan from the Middle Devonian of North America.

Blieckaspis priscillae was originally described by Robert Denison from incomplete remains from Late Emsian-aged marine strata in Water Canyon, Utah, as a member of the genus Protaspis, naming it after one Priscilla Turnbull.  As more, successively better preserved fossils were found, Denison later revised his findings and placed Protaspis priscillae into Pteraspis in 1970.

In 1984, Alain Blieck further revised P. priscillae's classification, and placed it tentatively into Errivaspis.  In 1996, after studying even better preserved material found in Late Emsian-aged strata of the Lost Burro Formation in Death Valley, California, Elliott & Ilyes erected a new genus, Blieckaspis, in honor of Blieck, for "P." priscillae.

Erwin Heerich (29 November 1922 in Kassel – 6 November 2004 in Meerbusch, Germany) was a German artist.

Life and work

From 1945 to 1950 Heerich studied fine arts at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under Ewald Mataré. From 1950 to 1954, he belonged, together with Joseph Beuys, to the master class of his professor. At that time, he chiefly produced sculptures representing animals and drawings of plants. In 1954, he left the Düsseldorf academy and worked as an artist and art teacher. Since 1959, he used cardboard as his artistic material. He presented 10 of these "Kartonplastiken" at the documenta IV (1968) in Kassel.

Heerich emphasized that for him, "cardboard, like polystyrene, had no specifically aesthetic or historical connotations, the materials are value-neutral to the largest possible extent." Furthermore, the artist was not primarily "concerned with the manifestation of an art object, but with making an idea material in terms of a specific problem: how space can be presented and formed."

From 1969 to 1988 he was a professor at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. In 1974 he became also a member of the Academy of Arts, Berlin.

From 1982 to 1994 he created eleven exhibition pavilions for the Museum Insel Hombroich, which were called "chapels in the landscape". His elemental sculptures became the design base for these gallery pavilions.

In 1978 Heerich received the Will Grohmann Prize in Berlin. In 1987 he received the Max Beckmann Prize in Frankfurt am Main and in 1995 the Anton Stankowski Prize in Stuttgart.

The 2010 MLS SuperDraft was the eleventh annual SuperDraft presented by Major League Soccer. It was held on January 14, 2010 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, during the 2010 NSCAA Convention. The 2010 SuperDraft consisted of four rounds with sixteen selections each, for a total of 64 players selected during the draft. The draft preceded the 2010 MLS season.

Philadelphia served as host to the 2010 draft the same year the Philadelphia Union begin play in MLS.  As an expansion team, Philadelphia received the rights to the first selection in each of the four rounds.  As the champion from the 2009 MLS season, Real Salt Lake had the rights to the final selections in each round. As similar in other drafts, teams may trade these rights away to other teams for other rights such as players, special roster spots, or other rights of interest.

Trade note 
 Los Angeles Galaxy traded the rights to American midfielder/forward Clint Mathis to Real Salt Lake on 2008-08-14. It was reported that LA would receive a conditional fourth-round pick in the 2010 SuperDraft from RSL in exchange. However, RSL kept its fourth-round 2010 selection and instead sent its natural third-round selection in the 2011 MLS SuperDraft to Los Angeles to complete the deal.

2010 Supplemental Draft Trades 
In December 2008 the league decided to cancel the Supplemental Draft, which had typically been held shortly after the annual SuperDraft. Prior to the cancellation a few trades were made involving 2010 Supplemental Draft picks. It is unknown what compensation, if any, clubs trading for 2010 Supplemental Draft picks received in lieu of the draft picks. Announced trades involving 2010 Supplemental Draft selections include:

 Round 4, San Jose Earthquakes → Chicago Fire. 2008-04-04: Chicago Fire acquired a fourth-round selection in the 2010 Supplemental Draft from San Jose Earthquakes in exchange for forward Ryan Johnson. It is likely that Chicago instead received San Jose's fourth-round pick in the 2010 SuperDraft (#51) to fulfill this trade as no trade was announced between the two clubs which involved a fourth-round 2010 SuperDraft pick.
 Round 4, D.C. United → Houston Dynamo. 2008-06-30: Houston Dynamo acquired a fourth-round selection in the 2010 Supplemental Draft from D.C. United in exchange for midfielder Craig Thompson.
 Conditional, Los Angeles Galaxy → San Jose Earthquakes. 2008-11-24: San Jose Earthquakes acquired a conditional selection in the 2010 Supplemental Draft from Los Angeles Galaxy in exchange for forward Jovan Kirovski.

An arriero, muleteer, or more informally a muleskinner (; ; ) is a person who transports goods using pack animals, especially mules.

Distribution and function 
In South America, muleskinners transport coffee, maize (corn), cork, wheat, and myriad other items. They used to be common in the Paisa Region (Antioquia and the Colombian Coffee-Growers Axis) of Colombia but were replaced in the 1950s by tractor trailers called locally "tractomulas" paying homage to the mules that used to do this hard job. In California, muleteers work out of pack stations. In Europe, there are still muleteers in the south of Portugal and the southwest of Spain, in the cork producing area.  Their role is now limited to transporting the cork with their mules, out of the Mediterranean oak forest to more accessible routes, where modern means of transport are available.

Names and etymology
The English word muleteer comes from the French muletier, from Old French, from mulet, diminutive of mul, mule. The term muleskinner means someone who can "skin", or outsmart, a mule.

The Spanish word arriero is derived from the verb arrear, which means to urge cattle or other stock to walk.  The verb itself is derived from arre, which is the call used to cry out to animals for this purpose.  In English, an arriero is one type of muleteer, a wrangler of pack animals.

The Catalan word traginer comes from the Latin word tragīnare, a variant of tragĕre which means "to transport".

Outfits
Typical muleteer outfits vary from country to country:

Carriel: Leather bag traditionally made of nutria leather. It is used to carry personal goods and money. It has become an element of the Colombian fashion.
Espadrilles (alpargatas) : Sandals made of fique (natural fiber obtained of furcraea plants and leather.
Machete
Poncho: Rectangular piece of fabric, usually white with linear embroidery, that is used to protect the face and neck from the cold weather.
Ruana: Square wool garment, larger than the poncho, with a hole in the middle for the head. It covers the torso.
Straw hat (sombrero aguadeño)
Tapapinche: Leather apron.

In popular culture
The fictional Juan Valdez, brand representative of the Federación Nacional de Cafeteros de Colombia, is an archetypal muleteer carrying coffee sacks with his mule.

In Cormac McCarthy's second Border Trilogy novel, The Crossing, Billy's wolf upsets the muleteers' burros, which wreaks substantial havoc before Billy moves on.

"Mule Skinner Blues" is a country music song first recorded in 1930 by Jimmy Rodgers, which has inspired many subsequent variations.

The 1964 Broadway musical Man of La Mancha features a band of muleteers as one of the primary antagonists.
