Sirius Black is a fictional character in J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series, played by Gary Oldman.
Black, also known as Padfoot or Snuffles (in his Animagus form) was a pure-blood wizard.
He was born on 3rd November, 1959 and is the eldest son of Orion and Walburga Black.
He is heir of the Ancient and Noble house of Black and brother to Regulus.
His cousin's are Bellatrix Lestrange (née Black), Andromeda Tonks (née Black) and Narcissa Malfoy (née Black).
He was Harry Potter's godfather.
He was best friends with James Potter, along with Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew.
These four were known as the Marauders in their school days, and created the Marauder's Map.
He, along with his three friends, belonged to Gryffindor house when at Hogwarts, unlike the rest of his family, who had belonged to the house of Slytherin.
He did not like his family, and ran away from home to James Potter's house when he was 16.
The Potters took Sirius in as their own son.
His prized possession during childhood was his flying motorbike.
Sirius was an animagus and was able to transform into a big black dog, (a Grim) which is an omen of death, at will.
He, along with James Potter and Peter Pettigrew became Animagus to help Remus Lupin with his transformations.
He was the first wizard to escape Azkaban prison, after being kept there twelve years for a crime that he did not commit.
The betrayal of James and Lily Potter, the murder of Peter Pettigrew and 12 muggles with an unknown curse.
Harry found out, after a year of believing otherwise, that Sirius was an innocent man, and helped him evade capture from the Ministry of Magic.
Sirius went on the run before returning to his (empty) childhood home, 12 Grimmauld Place, and offered it up as headquarters for the Order of the Phoenix upon Voldemort's return.
He was killed in a battle at the Ministry of Magic by his cousin, a Death Eater, Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry's (his Godson's)5th year at Hogwarts.
He returned during Harry's 7th year along with James, Lily and Remus, after being resurrected with the help of the Resurrection stone in a hazy form.
He was the only remaining “true” heir of the House of Black.
12 Grimmauld Place was gifted to Harry Potter, Sirius’ godson.
In which case, Harry or Draco Malfoy (related to the House of Black through his mother Narcissa) would’ve likely inherited the title of Head of House.
Possibly even Andromeda Tonks or her grandson, Edward “Teddy” Remus Lupin.
As he has said before, "almost all pure-bloods are somehow related, and he’s no exception".
He’s related to the Weasleys by way of Cedrella Weasley (née Black), whom married Septimus Weasley.
Together they're the paternal grandparents of the Weasley children.
He’s related to the Malfoys through Narcissa Malfoy (née Black) who married into the Malfoy family, and is Sirius’ cousin.
He’s even related to his godson, Harry Potter, through Dorea Potter (née Black) who is a distant relative to Harry and James Potter.
He is named after the dog star, Sirius,and his brother Regulus after a star in the constellation Leo.
This may be connected to Griffindor, or to Draco Malfoy naming his son Scorpius.
Maybe pure bloods are often named after stars?
A music festival is a festival where music is played.
Music festivals are usually outside, and often have other attractions such as food, games, and other forms of entertainment.
They sometimes have a theme such as genre or nationality.
Many festivals happen every year, or at some other common interval.
However, some only happen once.
A music festival can be held for profit or for charity.
The Billboard Hot 100 is a list of the current most well-liked music made by Billboard magazine.
Rankings are based on radio play and sales; the tracking week for sales is each Monday to Sunday, while for radio play it is Wednesday to Tuesday.
A new chart is compiled and officially released to the public by Billboard on Thursday.
Each chart is dated with the "week-ending" date of the Saturday two weeks after.
Monday, January 1 – sales tracking-week begins
Wednesday, January 3 – airplay tracking-week begins
Sunday, January 7 – sales tracking-week ends
Tuesday, January 9 – airplay tracking-week ends
Thursday, January 11 – new chart released, with issue date of Saturday, January 20.
The first number one song of the Hot 100 was "Poor Little Fool" by Ricky Nelson on August 4, 1958.
As of the issue for the week ending July 21, 2018, the Hot 100 has had 1,016 different number-one hits.
Its current number one is "Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus.
What has always been known as the Hot 100 existed for nearly 15 years as numerous charts, tracking and ranking the most popular singles of the day in several areas.
During the 1940s and 1950s, popular singles were ranked in three significant charts:
Best Sellers In Stores—ranked the biggest selling singles in retail stores, as reported by merchants surveyed throughout the country (20 to 50 positions).
Most Played By Jockeys—ranked the most played songs on United States radio stations, as reported by radio disc jockeys and radio stations (20 to 25 positions).
Most Played In Jukeboxes—ranked the most played songs in jukeboxes across the United States (20 positions).
This was one of the main outlets of measuring song popularity with the younger generation of music listeners, as many radio stations resisted adding rock 'n roll music to their playlists for many years.
Although officially all three charts had equal importance, many chart historians refer to the Best Sellers In Stores chart when referring to a song’s performance prior to the creation of the Hot 100.
Billboard eventually created a fourth singles popularity chart that combined all aspects of a single’s performance (sales, airplay and jukebox activity), based on a point system that typically gave sales (purchases) more weight than radio airplay.
On the week ending November 12, 1955, Billboard published The Top 100 for the first time.
The Best Sellers In Stores, Most Played By Jockeys and Most Played In Jukeboxes charts continued to be published concurrently with the new Top 100 chart.
On June 17, 1957, Billboard discontinued the Most Played In Jukeboxes chart, as the popularity of jukeboxes waned and radio stations incorporated more and more rock-oriented music into their play lists.
The week ending July 28, 1958 was the final publication of the Most Played By Jockeys and Top 100 charts, both of which had Perez Prado's instrumental version of "Patricia" ascending to the top.
On August 4, 1958, Billboard premiered one main all-genre singles chart: the Hot 100'''.
Although similar to the Top 100, the first Hot 100 chart reset all songs’ "weeks on chart" status to "1".
The Hot 100 quickly became the industry standard and Billboard discontinued the Best Sellers In Stores chart on October 13, 1958.
The Billboard Hot 100 is still the standard by which a song’s popularity is measured in the United States.
The Hot 100 is ranked by radio airplay audience impressions as measured by Nielsen BDS, sales data compiled by Nielsen Soundscan (both at retail and digitally) and streaming activity provided by online music sources.
There are several component charts that contribute to the overall calculation of the Hot 100.
The most significant ones are shown below.
Hot 100 Airplay—(per Billboard) approximately 1,000 stations, "composed of adult contemporary, R&B, hip-hop, country, rock, gospel, Latin and Christian formats, digitally monitored 24 hours per day, seven days a week.
Charts are ranked by number of gross audience impressions, computed by cross-referencing exact times of radio airplay with Arbitron listener data."
Hot 100 Singles Sales—(per Billboard) "the top selling singles compiled from a national sample of retail store, mass merchant and internet sales reports collected, compiled, and provided by Nielsen SoundScan."
Hot Digital Songs—Digital sales are tracked by Nielsen SoundScan and are included as part of a title's sales points.
The advent of a music single song chart spawned chart historians and chart-watchers and greatly affected pop culture and produced countless bits of trivia.
The main purpose of the Hot 100 is to aid those within the music industry – to reflect the popularity of the "product" (the singles, the albums, etc.)
and to track the trends of the buying public.
Billboard has many times changed its methodology and policies to give the better reflect what is popular.
A basic example is the weight given to sales versus airplay.
Initially, singles were the leading way by which people bought music.
When singles sales were robust, more weight was given to a song’s retail points than to its radio airplay.
In later decades, the recording industry concentrated more on album sales and musicians eventually released more full-length albums than singles, and by the 1990s many record companies stopped releasing singles (see Album Cuts, below).
Eventually a song’s airplay points were weighted more than its sales.
Billboard adjusted the sales/airplay ratio many times to more accurately reflect the true popularity of songs.
Double-sided singles Billboard also changed its Hot 100 policy regarding “two-sided singles” several times.
The pre-Hot 100 chart "Best Sellers in Stores" listed popular A- and-B-sides together, with the side that was played most often (based on its other charts) listed first.
One of the most notable of these, but far from the only one, was Elvis Presley’s "Don’t Be Cruel" / "Hound Dog."
During the Presley single’s chart run, top billing was switched back and forth between the two sides several times.
But on the concurrent "Most Played in Juke Boxes," "Most Played by Jockeys" and the "Top 100," the two songs were listed separately, as was true of all songs.
With the initiation of the Hot 100 in 1958, A- and-B-sides charted separately, as they had on the former Top 100.
Starting with the Hot 100 chart for the week ending November 29, 1969, this rule was altered; if both sides received significant airplay, they were listed together.
This started to become a moot point by 1972, as most major record labels solidified a trend they had started in the 1960s by putting the same song on both sides of the singles it serviced to radio.
More complex issues began to arise as the typical A-and-B-side format of singles gave way to 12 inch singles and maxi-singles, many of which contained more than one B-side.
Further problems arose when, in several cases, a B-side would eventually overtake the A-side in popularity, thus prompting record labels to release a new single, featuring the former B-side as the A-side, along with a "new" B-side.
Album cuts
A longstanding policy of the Hot 100 chart was that songs must be sold as a single.
However, during the 1990s major record labels claimed that singles reduced album sales, so they were phased out.
They increasingly promoted songs to radio without releasing them as singles.
Labels often held off a single from release until airplay peaked, thus prompting a high debut.
Often, a label deleted a single from its catalog after only one week, thus allowing the song to enter the Hot 100, make a high debut and then decline in position as the one-time production of the retail single sold out.
Accusations were made that these practices manipulated the charts.
Several popular hits were never listed on the Hot 100 chart, or charted well after their airplay declined.
During the period when they were not released as singles, the songs were not eligible to chart.
Many of these songs dominated the Hot 100 Airplay chart for long periods:
1995 The Rembrandts – "I’ll Be There For You" (number one for eight weeks)
1996 No Doubt – "Don't Speak" (number one for 16 weeks)
1997 Sugar Ray featuring Super Cat – "Fly" (number one for six weeks)
1997 Will Smith – "Men in Black" (number one for four weeks)
1997 The Cardigans – "Lovefool" (number two for eight weeks)
1998 Natalie Imbruglia – "Torn" (number one for 11 weeks)
1998 Goo Goo Dolls – "Iris" (number one for 18 weeks)
In response to debate, conflicts and requests by the music artists and insiders, Billboard included airplay-only singles (or "album cuts") in the Hot 100.
On December 5, 1998, the Hot 100 changed from being a "singles" chart to a "songs" chart.
Extended play (EP) releases were listed by Billboard on the Hot 100 and in pre-Hot 100 charts (Top 100) until the mid-to-late 1960s.
With the growing popularity of albums, it was decided to move EPs (which typically contain four to six tracks) from the Hot 100 to the Billboard 200, where they are included to this day.
Paid digital downloads
Since February 12, 2005, the Billboard Hot 100 tracks paid digital downloads from such internet services as iTunes, Napster, Musicmatch, and Rhapsody.
With paid digital downloads added to the airplay/sales formula of the Hot 100, many songs benefited on the charts from the change.
Billboard initially started tracking downloads in 2003 with the Hot Digital Tracks chart.
However, these downloads did not count towards the Hot 100 and that chart (as opposed to Hot Digital Songs) counted each version of a song separately (the chart still exists today along with Hot Digital Songs).
This is the first major overhaul of the Hot 100's chart formula since December 1998.
The change in formula has shaken up the chart considerably, with some songs debuting on the chart strictly with robust online sales and others making drastic leaps.
In recent years, several songs have been able to achieve 80-to-90 position jumps in a single week as their digital components were made available at online music stores.
Since 2006, the all-time record for the biggest single-week upward movement was broken nine times.
In the issue dated August 11, 2007, Billboard began incorporating weekly data from Streaming media and On-demand services into the Hot 100.
The first two major companies to provide their statistics to Nielsen BDS on a weekly basis are AOL Music and Yahoo!
Music, with more to follow in the future.
A growing trend in the early first decade of the 21st century was to issue a song as a "remix" that was so drastically different in structure and lyrical content from its original version that it was essentially a whole new song.
Under normal circumstances, airplay points from a song’s album version, "radio" mix and/or dance music remix, etc.
were all combined and factored into the song’s performance on the Hot 100, as the structure, lyrics and melody remained intact.
Criticisms began when songs were being completely re-recorded to the point that they no longer resembled the original recording.
The first such example of this scenario is Jennifer Lopez’ "I'm Real".
Originally entering the Hot 100 in its album version, a "remix" was issued in the midst of its chart run that featured rapper Ja Rule.
This new version proved to be far more popular than
To address this issue, Billboard now separates airplay points from a song’s original version and its remix, if the remix is determined to be a "new song".
Since administering this new chart rule, several songs have charted twice, normally credited as "Part 1" and "Part 2".
The remix rule is still in place.
Recurrents Billboard, in an effort to allow the chart to remain as current as possible and to give proper representation to new and developing artists and tracks, has (since 1991) removed titles that have reached certain criteria regarding its current rank and number of weeks on the chart.
Recurrent criteria have been modified several times and currently (as of 2010), a song is permanently moved to "recurrent status" if it has spent 20 weeks on the Hot 100 and fallen below position number 50.
Exceptions are made to re-releases and sudden resurgence in popularity of tracks that have taken a very long time to gain mainstream success.
These rare cases are handled on a case-by-case basis and ultimately determined by Billboard’s chart managers and staff.
The most notable exception to the recurrent entry policy applies to holiday-themed releases, which are commonly reissued year after year in anticipation of Christmas purchasing.
After its initial chart run, a holiday entry cannot re-enter the Hot 100 in subsequent years.
Year-end charts Billboards "chart year" runs from the first week of December to the final week in November.
This altered calendar allows for Billboard to calculate year-end charts and release them in time for its final print issue on the last week of December.
Prior to Nielsen SoundScan, year-end singles charts were calculated by an inverse-point system based solely on a song’s performance on the Hot 100 (for example, a song would be given one point for a week spent at position 100, two points for a week spent at position ninety-nine and so forth, up to 100 points for each week spent at number one).
Other factors including the total weeks a song spent on the chart and at its peak position  were calculated into its year-end total.
After Billboard began obtaining sales and airplay information from Nielsen SoundScan, the year-end charts are now calculated by a very straightforward cumulative total of yearlong sales and airplay points.
This gives a more accurate picture of any given year’s most popular tracks, as a song that hypothetically spent nine weeks at number one in March could possibly have earned fewer cumulative points than a song that spent six weeks at number three in January.
Songs at the peak of their popularity at the time of the November/December chart-year cutoff many times end up ranked on the following year's chart as well, as their cumulative points are split between the two chart-years, but often are ranked lower than they would have been had the peak occurred in a single year.
The limitations of the Hot 100 have become more pronounced over time.
Since the Hot 100 was based on singles sales, as singles have themselves become a less common form of song release, the Hot 100's data represented a narrowing segment of sales until the December 1998 change in the ranking formula.
Few music historians believe that the Hot 100 has been a perfectly accurate gauge of the most popular songs for each week or year.
For example, during the 1950s and 1960s, payola and other problems skewed the numbers in largely undetectable ways.
Further, the history of popular music shows nearly as many remarkable failures to chart as it does impressive charting histories.
Certain artists (such as Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin) had tremendous album sales while being oblivious to the weekly singles charts.
Business changes in the industry also affect artists' statistical "records."
Single releases were more frequent and steady, and were expected to have much shorter shelf lives in earlier decades, making direct historical comparisons somewhat specious.
Of the sixteen singles to top the Billboard chart for more than ten weeks since 1955, just one was released before 1992.
During the first forty years of the rock era, no song had ever debuted at number one; since a 1995 change in methodology, nineteen songs have.
Strategizing also plays a role.
Numerous artists have taken deliberate steps to maximize their chart positions by such tactics as timing a single's debut to face the weakest possible competition, or massively discounting the price of singles to the point where each individual sale represented a financial loss.
Meanwhile, other artists would deliberately withhold even their most marketable songs in order to boost album sales.
Particularly in the 1990s, many of the most heavily played MTV and radio hits were unavailable for separate purchase.
Because of such countervailing strategies, it cannot be said that a Hot 100 chart necessarily lists the country's 100 most popular or successful songs.
Strategies like these were the main reason behind the December 1998 change in the charts.
Some critics have argued that an overemphasis on a limited number of singles has distorted record industry development efforts, and there are nearly as many critics of the Hot 100 as there are supporters.
Certain of these criticisms, however, are becoming less and less germane as digital downloads have revitalized the concept of “singles sales.”
The Billboard charts have endured as the only widely circulated published report on songs that have been popular across the United States over the last half-century.
Competing publications such as Cash Box, Record World, Radio & Records and most recently Mediabase have offered alternate charts, which sometimes differed widely.
Use in media
The Hot 100 served for many years as the data source for the weekly radio countdown show American Top 40.
This relationship ended on November 30, 1991, as American Top 40 started using the airplay-only side of the Hot 100 (then called Top 40 Radio Monitor).
The ongoing splintering of Top 40 radio in the early 1990s led stations to lean into specific formats, meaning that practically no station would play the wide array of genres that typically composed each weekly Hot 100 chart.
Similar charts
A new chart, the Pop 100, was created by Billboard in February 2005 to answer criticism that the Hot 100 was biased in favor of rhythmic songs, as throughout most of its existence, the Hot 100 was seen predominantly as a pop chart.
It was discontinued in June 2009 due to the charts becoming increasingly similar.
The Canadian Hot 100 was launched June 16, 2007.
Like the Hot 100 chart, it uses sales and airplay tracking compiled by Nielsen SoundScan and BDS.

Worcestershire sauce (spoken like ˈwʊstəˌʃɪə or WUSS-ter-SHERR) is a widely-used fermented sauce.
It was first made at 68 Broad Street, Worcester, by the company Lea & Perrins in the 1830s.
It was made for selling to people in 1837, and is still the only Worcestershire sauce still to be made in the UK.
In 1930 the company was sold to HP Foods and was later sold to the H.J. Heinz Company from Groupe Danone in 2005.
The sauce is used to make many dishes, both cooked and uncooked, and often with beef; drinks such as the Bloody Mary also use it.
Lea & Perrins also makes it in concentrated form that is made ready to sell in other countries.
The Indian massacre of 1622 (also known as the Jamestown Massacre) was an event where around 347 people were killed in the Virginia Colony of North America on Good Friday, March 22, 1622.
The number killed, 347, was almost one-third of the English population of Jamestown.
They were killed by a number of surprise attacks by the Powhatan Confederacy (a Native American tribe), who were ruled by Chief Opechancanough.

In Unix computing, Fluxbox is an X window manager based on Blackbox 0.61.1.
It tries to be lightweight and customizable, and has very little support for graphical icons.
Its user interface has only a taskbar and a menu that can be used by right-clicking on the desktop.
All basic settings are controlled by text files.
Fluxbox can show some eye candy such as: colors, gradients, borders, and several other basic appearance settings can be changed.
Effects managers such as Xcompmgr and transset-df can add true transparency to desktop elements and windows.
Enhancements can also be provided by using iDesk or fbdesk, or the ROX Desktop.
Because of its small memory use and quick loading time, Fluxbox is popular in many Live CDs such as Knoppix STD and GParted.
It was the default window manager of Damn Small Linux, but was replaced with JWM after the release of Damn Small Linux 4.0.
It is currently the default window manager of antiX , a linux distribution based on MEPIS and designed for old computers, PCFluxboxOS, a remaster of PCLinuxOS, and LinguasOS, a Live CD distribution for professional translators.
Fluxbuntu, Ubuntu with Fluxbox and lightweight applications, was released in October 2007.

Damn Small Linux or DSL is a free operating system for the x86 family of personal computers.
It was designed to run graphical applications on older PC hardware—for example, machines with 486/early Pentium processors and very little memory.
DSL is a Live CD with a size of 50 MB.
What originally started as an experiment to see how much software could fit in 50 MB eventually became a full-fledged Linux distribution.
It can be installed on storage media with small capacities, like bootable business cards, USB flash drives, various memory cards, and Zip drives.
DSL was originally conceived and maintained by John Andrews.
The community now includes Robert Shingledecker, who created the MyDSL system, DSL Control Panel, and other features.
DSL supports only x86 PCs.
The minimum system requirements are a 486 processor and 8 MB of RAM.
DSL has been demonstrated browsing the web with Dillo, running simple games and playing music on systems with a 486 processor and 16 MB of RAM.
The system requirements are higher for running Mozilla Firefox and optional add-ons such as the OpenOffice.org office suite.
The current version of DSL is 4.4.5, released September 3, 2008.
DSL currently includes the following software:
Text editors: Beaver, Nano, Vim
File managers: DFM, emelFM
Graphics: MtPaint, xzgv (image viewer)
Multimedia: gphone, XMMS with MPEG-1 and VCD support
Office: SIAG (spreadsheet program), Ted (word processor) with spell checker, Xpdf (viewer for PDF documents)
Web browsers: Dillo, Firefox, Netrik
Sylpheed (E-mail client)
naim (AIM, ICQ, and IRC client)
AxyFTP (FTP client), BetaFTPD (FTP server)
Monkey (web server)
Rdesktop (RDP client), VNC viewer
Others: DHCP client, SSH/SCP client and server; PPP, PPPoE, ADSL support; FUSE, NFS, SSHFS support; UnionFS; generic/Ghostscript printing support; PC card, USB, Wi-Fi support; calculator, games, system monitor; many command-line tools
DSL has built-in scripts to download and install Advanced Packaging Tool (APT).
Once APT is enabled, the user can install packages from Debian's 'Woody' repository.
Additionally, DSL hosts software ranging from large applications like OpenOffice.org and GCC, to smaller ones such as aMSN, by means of the "MyDSL" system, which allows convenient one-click download and installation of software.
Files hosted on MyDSL are called "extensions".
As of June 2008, the MyDSL servers were hosting over 900 applications, plugins, and other extensions.
The MyDSL system
MyDSL is handled and maintained mostly by Robert Shingledecker and hosted by many organizations, such as ibiblio and Belgium's BELNET.
There are 2 areas of MyDSL - regular and "testing".
The regular area contains extensions that have been proven stable enough for everyday use and is broken down into different areas such as "apps", "net", "system", and "uci" ("Universal Compressed ISO" - Extensions in .uci format are mounted as a separate filesystem to minimize RAM usage).
The "testing" area is for newly submitted extensions that theoretically work 'as advertised', but may have any number of bugs.
Versions and ports
The standard flavour of DSL is the Live CD.
There are also other versions available.

Swamp blues is a type of blues music.
It is based on the Louisiana blues, but has a more laid back and relaxed feel.
Swamp blues is often linked to J. D. "Jay" Miller's, recording studio in Crowley, Louisiana.
Miller released lots of swamp blues recordings on his own labels, as well as on more well known labels.
Showing the impact of Swamp Blues on other music, the Rolling Stones played a version of Slim Harpo's "I'm a King Bee," and Neil Young recorded Slim Harpo's "Rainin' In My Heart."

In April 2008, Disney announced that the movie will be released on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on October 28, 2008.
Contrary to the previous announcement of the suspension of direct-to-video sequels, they also announced three direct-to-DVD sequels to follow this movie, also digitally animated:
Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure (fall 2009)
Tinker Bell: A Midsummer Storm (working title, summer 2010)
Tinker Bell: A Winter Story (working title, summer 2011)
The movie saw an exclusive theatrical release at the El Capitan Theatre between September 19 and October 2nd.
It will also premiere on Disney Channel in November as part of "New in November."
The name of the village is a local curiosity, as its pronunciation (and occasional spelling) differs to how one may try to pronounce it.
On local signs, the village is sometimes marked as Woolsery alongside the original name.
This is due to the pronunciation of the village's name being /ˈwʊlzərɨ/ (Woolz'ry).
The Guadalcanal Campaign was fought between August 7, 1942, and February 9, 1943, in the Pacific theatre of World War II.
This campaign, which was a decisive and strategically important campaign of World War II, was fought on the ground, at sea, and in the air between Allied forces against Imperial Japanese forces.
The fighting took place on and around the island of Guadalcanal in the southern Solomon Islands, and was the first major offensive launched by Allied forces against the Empire of Japan.
Strategic considerations
On 7 December 1941, Japanese forces attacked the neutral United States Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
The attack killed almost 2,500 people and damaged much of the US battleship fleet, starting a war between the two nations next day.
The initial goals of Japanese leaders were to destroy the US Navy, seize lands rich in natural resources, and establish strategic military bases to defend Japan's empire in the Pacific Ocean and Asia.
To do this, Japanese forces captured the Philippines, Thailand, Malaya, Singapore, Burma, the Dutch East Indies, and many small islands.
Joining the U.S. in the war against Japan were the rest of the Allied powers, several of whom, including the United Kingdom, Australia and the Netherlands had also been attacked by Japan.
The Allies chose the southern Solomon Islands including Guadalcanal, as the first target.
The Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) had occupied Tulagi in May 1942 and had constructed a seaplane base nearby.
Allied concern grew when, in early July 1942, the IJN began constructing a large airfield at Lunga Point on Guadalcanal.
From there, Japanese long range bombers would threaten the East Coast of Australia.
By August 1942, the Japanese had about 900 naval troops on Tulagi and nearby islands and 2,800 people on Guadalcanal.
These bases would protect Japan's major base at Rabaul, threaten Allied supply and communication lines and establish base for attacks against Fiji, New Caledonia and Samoa.
The Japanese planned to send 45 fighters and 60 bombers to Guadalcanal.
In 1942 these aircraft could provide air cover for Japanese naval forces advancing into the South Pacific.
The Allied plan to invade the southern Solomons was thought of by U.S. Admiral Ernest King, Commander in Chief, United States Fleet.
He wanted to take the islands away from the Japanese.
With Roosevelt's agreement, King also wanted to invade  Guadalcanal.
Because the United States supported Great Britain's idea of defeating Germany before Japan, the Pacific war had to compete for troops and resources with the European war.
Therefore US Army General George C. Marshall was against King's proposed attacks and asked who would command the operation.
King replied that the Navy and Marines would do it themselves and instructed Admiral Chester Nimitz to plan the attacks.
King won the argument with Marshall and the invasion went ahead.
The Guadalcanal attack would be carried out in at the same time as an Allied offensive in New Guinea under Douglas MacArthur.
The goal was to capture the Admiralty Islands and the Bismarck Archipelago, including the major Japanese base at Rabaul.
Eventually they would take the Philippines.
The U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff put Vice Admiral Robert L. Ghormley in command on 19 June 1942, to direct the attack in the Solomons.
Task force
In preparation for the attack in the Pacific in May 1942, the U.S. 1st Marine Division moved from the United States to New Zealand.
Other Allied land, naval and air force units were sent to other Pacific islands.
The attack was codenamed Operation Watchtower, with the date set for 7 August 1942.
At first, the attacks were planned just for Tulagi and the Santa Cruz Islands, and not Guadalcanal.
When the Allies discovered the Japanese airfield on Guadalcanal, its capture was added to the plan and the Santa Cruz operation was dropped.
The Japanese knew Allied forces were moving but thought they were going to Australia and perhaps Port Moresby in New Guinea.
The Watchtower force, numbering 75 warships and transports (of vessels from the U.S. and Australia), assembled near Fiji on 26 July 1942.
They did one rehearsal landing prior to leaving for Guadalcanal on 31 July.
The commander of the Allied force was U.S. Vice Admiral Frank Fletcher (flag in aircraft carrier ).
Commanding the sea and land forces was U.S. Rear Admiral Richmond K. Turner.
Vandegrift led the 16,000 Allied (primarily U.S. Marine) infantry for the landings.
The troops sent to Guadalcanal were fresh from military training and armed with  M1903 Springfield rifles and a  10-day supply of ammunition.
To get them into battle quickly, the operation planners had reduced their supplies  to only 60 days.
The troops of the 1st Marine Division began referring to the coming battle as "Operation Shoestring".
Bad weather allowed the Allied force to arrive near Guadalcanal unseen by the Japanese on the night of 6 August and the morning of 7 August and take the defenders by surprise.
This has sometimes been called the Midnight Raid on Guadalcanal.
The landing force split into two groups, with one group attacking Guadalcanal, and the other Tulagi, Florida, and nearby islands.
Tulagi and two nearby small islands, Gavutu and Tanambogo, were attacked by 3,000 U.S. Marines.
The 886 IJN forces violently resisted the Marine attacks.
With some difficulty, the Marines captured all three islands; Tulagi on 8 August, and Gavutu and Tanambogo by 9 August.
The landings on Guadalcanal had much less resistance.
On 7 August, 11,000 U.S. Marines came ashore on Guadalcanal and met no resistance.
They stopped for the night about  from the Lunga Point airfield.
The next day, against little resistance, the Marines advanced to Lunga River and captured the airfield by 16:00 on 8 August.
The Japanese naval construction staff and combat troops had abandoned the airfield area and fled about  west to the Matanikau River and Point Cruz area.
They left behind food, supplies, construction equipment and vehicles, and 13 dead.
During the landing operations on 7 and 8 August, Japanese naval aircraft based at Rabaul, under the command of Sadayoshi Yamada, attacked the Allied forces several times, setting afire the transport USS George F. Elliot (which sank two days later) and heavily damaging the destroyer .
In the air attacks over the two days, the Japanese lost 36 aircraft, while the U.S. lost 19, both in combat and to accident, including 14 carrier fighters.
After these fights, Fletcher was concerned about the losses to his carrier fighter aircraft.
He was also anxious about the threat to his carriers from Japanese air attacks, and worried about his ships' fuel levels.
Fletcher pulled back from the Solomon Islands area with his carrier task forces the evening of 8 August.
As a result of the loss of carrier-based air cover, Turner pulled back his ships from Guadalcanal, even though less than half of the supplies and heavy equipment needed by the troops ashore had been unloaded.
Turner planned, however, to unload as many supplies as possible on Guadalcanal and Tulagi throughout the night of 8 August and then depart with his ships early on 9 August.
Battle of Savo Island
In the Battle of Savo Island one Australian and three American cruisers were sunk and one American cruiser and two destroyers were damaged.
The Japanese had moderate damage to one cruiser.
Mikawa, who was unaware Fletcher was preparing to pull back with the U.S. carriers, immediately went back to Rabaul without attempting to attack the transports.
Mikawa was concerned about daylight U.S. carrier air attacks if he remained in the area.
Without carrier air cover, Turner decided to pull back his remaining naval forces by the evening of 9 August.
This left the Marines ashore without much of the heavy equipment, supplies and troops still aboard the transports.
Mikawa's decision not to attempt to destroy the Allied transport ships was a big mistake.
Initial operations
The 11,000 Marines on Guadalcanal at first set up a guard around Lunga Point and the airfield.
They also moved the landed supplies ashore and finished the airfield.
By 18 August the airfield was ready for operation.
Five days worth of food had been landed from the transports, which, along with captured Japanese food, gave the Marines a total of 14 days worth of food.
To conserve supplies, the troops were limited to two meals per day.
Allied troops got sick with dysentery soon after the landings, with one in five Marines sick by mid-August.
Tropical diseases affected both sides' troops.
Although some of the Korean construction workers surrendered to the Marines, most of the Japanese and Korean gathered to the west and ate coconuts.
A Japanese naval outpost was also located at Taivu Point, about 35 kilometres (22 mi) east of the Lunga perimeter.
On 8 August, a Japanese destroyer from Rabaul delivered 113 troops to the Matanikau position.
On the evening of 12 August, a 25-man U.S. Marine patrol landed by boat to try and find a group of Japanese troops that U.S. forces thought might be willing to surrender.
Soon after the patrol landed, a nearby platoon of Japanese naval troops attacked and almost completely killed the Marine patrol.
On 19 August, Vandegrift sent three companies of the U.S. 5th Marine Regiment to attack the Japanese troops west of the Matanikau.
One company attacked at the mouth of the Matanikau river while another crossed the river  inland and attacked the Japanese forces in Matanikau village.
The third landed by boat further west and attacked Kokumbuna village.
After briefly occupying the two villages, the three Marine companies returned to the Lunga perimeter, having killed about 65 Japanese soldiers while losing four.
On 20 August, the escort carrier  delivered two squadrons of Marine aircraft to Henderson Field, one a squadron of 19 F4F Wildcats and the other a squadron of 12 SBD Dauntlesses.
The aircraft at Henderson became known as the "Cactus Air Force" (CAF) after the Allied codename for Guadalcanal.
The Marine fighters were used the next day.
There were Japanese bomber air raids almost every day.
On 22 August five U.S. Army P-400 Airacobras  and their pilots arrived at Henderson Field.
