Sky Spear The Sky Spear ( 天戟 " Tien Chi " ) short - range ballistic missile ( SRBM ) is a Taiwanese short - range ballistic missile capable of striking targets on mainland China . Derived from the Sky Bow II ( Tien Kung - 2 ) surface - to - air missile , the Tien Chi has a two - stage booster that extends over the single - stage Tien Kung - 2 . Developed by the Chungshan Institute of Science and Technology ( CSIST ) in Taiwan , the Tien Chi has a payload of less than 100 kg . As of early 2001 , up to 50 Tien Chi missiles were deployed at two sites : Tungyin Island , and an unidentified second location . The Tungyin Island missiles are said to be housed in silos and protected by batteries of Tien Kung - 2 SAMs . Information provided by CSIST to Jane ' s Missiles and Rockets , revealed that Tien Chi uses a submunition warhead and there is no unitary warhead for this missile . According to this report , Tien Chi was developed by CSIST following test firings of a Tien Kung 2 variant with a 120 km range and a 90 kg HE warhead . The report also credited Tien Chi missile with a range of 300 km and a 500 kg payload . This range is well beyond the reported 200 km maximum range of the Tien Kung II SAM system , but since Tien Chi is used in a tactical surface - to - surface missile role , it would fly a more efficient trajectory with no need for energy - consuming manoeuvres . Guidance is believed to be an integrated INS / GPS system .

The ill - disciplined Crusaders , especially in the German Crusade , had caused a number of incidents with the passage of the crusading army through the Balkans . The Byzantine emperor , Manuel I Comnenus , feared that the troops of the crusaders would strengthen the Principality of Antioch , which he wanted to restore to his sovereignty , and also would weaken the Byzantine - German alliance against Roger II of Sicily . While Conrad II and Louis VII refused to pay homage to the Byzantine emperor in the fall of 1147 , they retained the Byzantine troops . Consequently , Roger II seized Corfu and Cephalonia , and plundered Corinth and Thebes . The French and Germans decided to take separate routes . Conrad ' s army was defeated at the Battle of Dorylaeum October 25 , 1147 . The remnants of the army of Conrad were able to join the army of the king of France . Both armies followed the path left by the first Crusaders advance to Philadelphia in Lydia . In this city , the Germans were still exposed to attack and decided to return to Constantinople . Conrad III , reconciled with Manuel , captured Acre with Byzantine ships . The troops of Louis VII followed the coast and then took the road to the East . The Seljuks waited on the banks of the river Meander , but the Franks forced the passage and marched to Laodicea , which they reached on January 6 , the day of the Epiphany . They then marched to the mountains that separate the Phrygia of the Pisidia . The Battle . The vanguard , led by Geoffrey de Rancon , was recklessly placed too far ahead of the army . King Louis , with the main column , ignored that fact , and proceeded onward . The French soldiers walked with confidence , convinced that their comrades occupied the heights in front of them . However , the Seljuks had the advantage when the French ranks broke and rushed upon them swords in hand . The French retreated to a narrow gorge , bordered on one side with precipices and crags on the other . Horses , men , and baggage were forced into the abyss . King Louis VII was able to escape the fray , leaned against a tree and stood alone against multiple attackers . At night , the king took advantage of the darkness to join the vanguard of his army , which previously was believed dead . After the battle , the army of the king of France , which had suffered heavy losses , barely reached Attaleia on January 20 .

Confederate History Month and related celebrations have been controversial due to the contentious place of slavery in the history of the United States . When Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell issued a proclamation resurrecting Confederate History Month in 2010 , controversy arose due to the proclamation ' s omission of slavery . McDonnell later announced , " The proclamation issued by this Office designating April as Confederate History Month contained a major omission . The failure to include any reference to slavery was a mistake , and for that I apologize to any fellow Virginian who has been offended or disappointed . The abomination of slavery divided our nation , deprived people of their God - given inalienable rights , and led to the Civil War . Slavery was an evil , vicious and inhumane practice which degraded human beings to property , and it has left a stain on the soul of this state and nation . " . McDonnell has indicated that he will not issue a proclamation in future years .

On April 11 , 2010 , Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour defended McDonnell on CNN ' s " State of the Union " , calling the controversy raised by McDonnell ' s proclamation " just a nit " . " It ' s trying to make a big deal out of something that doesn ' t matter for diddly , " Barbour said . Unlike the Virginia proclamation , the 2010 Alabama proclamation noted , " our recognition of Confederate history also recognizes that slavery was one of the causes of the war , an issue in the war , was ended by the war and slavery is hereby condemned .
