Hello!

Thanks for uploading some pictures to Wikipedia. I wanted to make sure you were aware of some of the requirements and good practices for uploaded images.

 * Pick an image name.
 * When uploading an image, pick a file name that is descriptive, and unique. Remember that many images may be uploaded about the same topic, and remember that names are case sensitive.

 * Source the image.
 * On the image description page, explain where the image came from. If you created the image yourself, then say so.  If it's from the web, give a URL.  If it's a screenshot of a movie or game, or a scan from a book, give the title.

 * Provide copyright and license information.
 * This part is a little bit trickier, but it's very important. The copyright of the image generally belongs to whomever created it.
 * If it's a photograph you took, or an image you created (modifying an image that already exists doesn't count) in software like Photoshop or GIMP, then you own the copyright. To upload it to Wikipedia, you must agree to license it under the GFDL (which allows anyone to use it, but requires that they give credit to the original author and requires that any further edit to the image be licensed under the GFDL as well) or release it into the public domain (which allows anyone to use it for any purpose without restriction.)  Do this by placing an appropriate tag on the image description page, like {{GFDL}} or {{PD}}.  Be sure to mention that you created the image.  If you're using {{PD}}, you may also want to use {{NoRightsReserved}}, since there is some dispute as to whether one may grant items into the public domain.
 * If you didn't create the image, or the copyright somehow belongs to another party (like a screenshot, which you might "create", but the copyright belongs to the author of the movie or video game), then you need to find another tag that describes the copyright status of the image. Images used on Wikipedia need to be free for our use and the use of sites which reproduce our content.  This means that images cannot have a restriction such as "only for use by Wikipedia", or "for non-commercial use only", or "for educational use".  Images without a free license may be usable in certain articles under fair use, but such a use should be justified on the image description page.

 * Describe the image.
 * To another reader, the image may not be immediately understood. A caption in an article doesn't explain the image to a visitor who sees it on its image page.  Put a brief explanation of what is in the image on the image description page, similar to what you might include in a caption on an article.

Unspecified source for Image:Spst.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Spst.JPG. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Abu Badali 05:23, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Spits.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Spits.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Abu Badali 05:23, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Danitykshow.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Danitykshow.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

Non-free use disputed for Image:Yaboomlogo.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Yaboomlogo.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

A template has been added to the article Pop princess, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process.

Replaceable fair use Image:HESHT.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:HESHT.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy.

Fair use rationale for Image:A2p2b.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:A2p2b.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk  20:24, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Veedyo2.JPG, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Veedyo2.JPG is a duplicate of an already existing article, category or image.

Image copyright problem with Image:Africant.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Africant.JPG. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Disputed non-free use rationale for Image:A2p2b.JPG
Thank you for uploading Image:A2p2b.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 11:55, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Fulton County Airport (Georgia)

Fulton County Airport, also known as Charlie Brown Field or Brown’s Field, is a county-owned, public-use airport in Fulton County, Georgia, United States. It is located six nautical miles (7 mi, 11 km) west of the central business district of Atlanta. The airport's name comes from the nickname of former Atlanta politician Charles M. Brown, who served on the city council and county commission during the 1960s. It is also called Charlie Brown Airport or Brown Field. On the radio, however, it is referred to as "County Tower" or "County Ground".

As per Federal Aviation Administration records, the airport had 293 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008, 198 enplanements in 2009, and 725 in 2010. It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a reliever airport.

It is a local Class D airport located just west of Atlanta and the nearest airport to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (which is just south of Atlanta), and handles much of the general aviation traffic that would otherwise go there. The airport exists below and in close proximity to ATL's Class B airspace.

It is located very near Interstate 20, Interstate 285, and the Chattahoochee River, just outside the Atlanta city limits. It reports ASOS weather conditions 24 hours per day as West Atlanta. It also acted as the nearest backup weather station when Dobbins Air Reserve Base did not report overnight.

Facilities and aircraft
Fulton County Airport covers an area of 985 acres (399 ha) at an elevation of 841 feet (256 m) above mean sea level. It has two asphalt paved runways: 8/26 is 5,797 by 100 feet; and 14/32 is 4,158 by 100 feet (1,267 x 30 m). It is currently under the management of the Fulton County Public Works Department. David E. Clark is the Fulton County Public Works Director and Jonathan Gauthier is currently the Airport Manager.

In the year ending December 31, 2021, the airport had 79,449 general aviation aircraft operations, an average of 218 per day. In December 2021, there were 86 aircraft based at this airport: 34 single-engine, 6 multi-engine, 44 jet, and 2 helicopter.

The Airport houses a Georgia Army National Guard armory.

Accidents at or near FTY

 * On December 17, 2013, a Beechcraft Premier I operated by Mallen Industries Inc on approach impacted terrain 6km (3.8 mls) NW of FTY. The pilot was impaired and failed to maintain control during a nighttime approach. Both occupants were killed.
 * On December 20, 2018, a Cessna Citation V operated by Chen Aircrafts [sic] LLC crashed shortly after takeoff 2km (1.3 mls) NE of FTY because of loss of control due to spatial disorientation during initial climb in instrument meteorological conditions. All 4 occupants perished.

Talk:Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus

Untitled
This page is confusing, were the treatise written first, or the biblical text. Someone more knowledgeable than I should fix it.

A rather rude review…
Here, by Peter M.  !

Budelberger (   ) 03:46, 11 February 2015 (UTC).

It wasn't meant to be rude. Peter Head — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.60.91.11 (talk) 10:17, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

2 Thessalonians & 2 John: 'lost' or 'excluded'?
The present text frames the fact that the CER doesn't contain 2 Thessalonians and 2 John as an accident by saying these epistles were 'lost' and this makes the manuscript 'not intact'. However, do we have evidence to suggest that they should have been in there, or could it also be that they were excluded on purpose because they were not considered canonical? If we don't know, then we shouldn't phrase the information as if we do. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 04:36, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * McDonald 2017 says the following: "Later, the palimpsest codex Ephraemi Rescriptus (C 04, ca. fifth century) reportedly included all of the NT books, but it is not certain that it includes 2 John and 2 Thessalonians." Now it would be interesting to know which document the "reportedly" refers to; perhaps it is the CER itself, which wouldn't tell us anything, because the author may have had the opinion that these two epistles did not belong in the canon, and therefore 25 books were 'all of the NT books' in his opinion. I'll see if I can get more evidence. It looks like scholars do not agree whether they got lost or were excluded. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 04:52, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Gallagher 2017 asserts 2 John was 'surely' and 2 Thessalonians 'probably' originally part of the CER. Interesting. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 04:59, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * If the codex provided a table of contents listing which books it contained, or how many, that could settle the question pretty easily. The Muratorian fragment's beginning was lost, but it indicates the third gospel was Luke and the fourth John, so it is reasonable to infer from the text itself that there were four gospels in total and the first two were Matthew and Mark. Do we have any such evidence within the CER indicating there should have been a 2 Thessalonians and 2 John? Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 05:32, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

Michael de la Pole, 3rd Earl of Suffolk

Michael de la Pole, 3rd Earl of Suffolk (1395 – 25 October 1415) was an English nobleman, the eldest son of Michael de la Pole, 2nd Earl of Suffolk and Katherine de Stafford.

He brought 20 men-at-arms and 60 archers to France in 1415, in company with his father, who died at the Siege of Harfleur. Michael thus succeeded to his title, but enjoyed it only briefly inasmuch as he was killed seven weeks later at the Battle of Agincourt, one of the few important English casualties of the battle.

Michael de la Pole married before November 1403 Elizabeth Mowbray, daughter of the 1st Duke of Norfolk, but left no sons, only daughters:
 * Catherine de la Pole (born 6 May 1408), nun at Bruisyard
 * Elizabeth de la Pole (22 July 1411 – before 1422)
 * Isabel de la Pole (4 June 1415 – before 1422)

He was succeeded by his brother William de la Pole. Tradition holds that Michael was buried at either Butley Priory in Suffolk of which he held the advowson, or the Church of St Mary the Virgin in Ewelme, Oxfordshire.

Phantom Lady (film)

Phantom Lady is a 1944 American film noir directed by Robert Siodmak and starring Franchot Tone, Ella Raines, and Alan Curtis. Based on the novel of the same name by Cornell Woolrich, it follows a young Manhattan secretary and her endeavors to prove that her boss did not murder his wife.

Plot
After a fight with his wife on their anniversary, Scott Henderson, a 32-year-old engineer, picks up an equally unhappy woman at Anselmo's Bar in Manhattan, and they take a taxi to see a stage show. The woman refuses to tell him anything about herself. The star of the show they are watching, Estela Monteiro, becomes furious when she notices that she and the mystery woman are wearing the same distinctive hat. When Henderson returns home, he finds Police Inspector Burgess and two of his men waiting to question him; his wife has been strangled with one of his neckties. Henderson has a solid alibi, but the bartender, taxi driver, and Monteiro remember him but deny seeing the phantom lady. Henderson cannot even clearly describe the woman. He is tried, convicted, and sentenced to death.

Carol Richman, known as "Kansas", Henderson's loyal secretary who is secretly in love with him, sets out to prove his innocence. She starts with the bartender. She sits in the bar night after night, staring at and unnerving him. Finally, she follows him home one night. When he confronts her on the street, some bystanders step in to restrain him. He breaks free, runs into the street and is run over. Later, Burgess offers to help her (unofficially). He believes that only a fool or an innocent man would have stuck to such a weak alibi. Burgess provides Kansas with information about the drummer at the show, Cliff, who had tried to make eye contact with the phantom lady.

Kansas dresses provocatively and goes to another of Cliff's shows. Flirting with Cliff during the performance, she manages to capture his attention. They rendezvous afterwards, visit an underground jam-session, and go to his apartment. Somewhat drunk, Cliff brags that he was paid $500 for his false testimony. He accidentally knocks over her purse and, among the spilled contents, finds a piece of paper with details about him. He accuses her of misleading him. Kansas escapes, leaving her purse behind. After she has gone, an unidentified man arrives, accuses Cliff of telling Kansas he'd been bribed to deny seeing the phantom lady, and strangles Cliff to death.

Jack Marlow, Henderson's best friend, returns suddenly from South America, ostensibly to help Kansas save Henderson. He is in fact the man who has just murdered Cliff. He secretly works to frustrate Kansas's efforts, while hiding his own deteriorating mental state. Kansas tracks down Monteiro's hatmaker, Kettisha. One of her employees admits to copying the hat for a regular customer and provides her name and address. With Burgess away on another case, Kansas and Marlow go to see the milliner's client, Ann Terry. They discover her under a doctor's care, having collapsed some months earlier when the man she was to marry had died suddenly, leaving her emotionally devastated. Kansas is unable to get any information from her, but does find the hat. Marlow suggests he and Kansas wait for Burgess at Marlow's apartment. However, while she is freshening up, Kansas finds her missing purse and the paper with Cliff's particulars in a dresser drawer. Marlow admits he became enraged when Henderson's wife refused to run away with him, an artist; she was only toying with him. Burgess arrives just in time. Marlow throws himself out the window to his death. With Henderson freed, things appear to return to normal. Carol is delighted to learn that Henderson returns her love.

Production
Phantom Lady was Siodmak's first Hollywood film noir. It was also the first producing credit by Joan Harrison, Universal Pictures' first female executive and former screenwriter for Alfred Hitchcock.

Cliff's frantic drum solo was dubbed by former Harry James and His Orchestra drummer Dave Coleman.

Critical response
Critic Bosley Crowther was not impressed with the atmospherics of the film and panned the film for its screenplay, writing: "We wish we could recommend it as a perfect combination of the styles of the eminent Mr. Hitchcock and the old German psychological films, for that is plainly and precisely what it tries very hard to be. It is full of the play of light and shadow, of macabre atmosphere, of sharply realistic faces and dramatic injections of sound. People sit around in gloomy places looking blankly and silently into space, music blares forth from empty darkness, and odd characters turn up and disappear. It is all very studiously constructed for weird and disturbing effects. But, unfortunately, Miss Harrison and Mr. Siodmak forgot one basic thing—they forgot to provide their picture with a plausible, realistic plot."

Home media
Universal Pictures Home Entertainment released a made-on-demand DVD-R of the film through in conjunction with Turner Classic Movies.

Arrow Films released a region A Blu-ray edition of the film through their Arrow Academy label on March 5, 2019.

Battle of St. Michaels

The Battle of St. Michaels was an engagement contested on August 10, 1813, during the War of 1812. British soldiers attacked the American militia at St. Michaels, Maryland, which is located on Maryland's Eastern Shore with access to Chesapeake Bay. At the time, this small town was on the main shipping route to important cities such as Baltimore and Washington, D.C.

Although St. Michaels had little importance compared to Washington and Baltimore, it was a target for the British because of its ship building and its connection with the town of Easton, which was the largest community in the Maryland Eastern Shore region. St.Michaels is located on the St. Michaels (later named Miles) River, which could be used with smaller boats to get within 3 mi of Easton.

St. Michaels was attacked early in the morning before sunrise, when British forces arrived on the shore near the town. They quickly disabled an artillery battery, and returned to their boats. As they maneuvered their flotilla closer to the town, two other batteries manned by local militia opened fire. A boom placed across the mouth of the town's harbor successfully prevented the British from getting closer. Although the British returned fire, they eventually retreated to their base at Maryland's Kent Island. The locals suffered no casualties, while the British had casualties and damage to at least one barge. According to local legend, the citizens of St. Michaels hung lanterns in trees to fool the British artillerists, causing them to overshoot most of the town's buildings.

Background
On June 17, 1812, the United States Senate approved a resolution passed by the United States House of Representatives that declared war against the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. President James Madison signed the resolution into law on June 18. The country was not united in its feelings toward Great Britain. Many members of the Federalist political party, a coalition of bankers and businessmen, were against the war. Contrary to the Federalists, members of the Democratic-Republican Party, who had a numerical superiority, believed a war was justified.

After the declaration of war, the British government declared the ports of the United States to be in a state of blockade. They began stricter enforcement of the blockade in 1813, when ships were sent to close the port of New York and others further south, including those on the Chesapeake Bay. Early in February 1813, British ships under the command of Rear Admiral George Cockburn took possession of Hampton Roads at the mouth of Chesapeake Bay, which stopped traffic in and out of the bay. This effectively closed major ports such as Norfolk in Virginia and the Port of Baltimore in Maryland.

Beginning in spring, Cockburn conducted raids on towns along the Chesapeake. The raids involved the destruction or removal of property including crops and livestock. On May 3, Cockburn burned most of Havre de Grace, Maryland. Additional Maryland coastal towns, Georgetown and Fredericktown, were burned on May 6. First Lady Dolley Madison called Cockburn's raids "savage", and Cockburn threatened to capture and parade her through London. Cockburn established a policy that if a town kept no guns or militia, he would leave them unharmed.

Vice Admiral Sir John Borlase Warren was Cockburn's immediate superior, and he was headquartered in Bermuda. Warren believed he did not have enough ships to blockade the American coast. During May, he received two battalions of marines and additional ships. He issued a May 26 proclamation that New York and the Mississippi River were in a state of formal blockade. The same proclamation also listed as blockaded the South Carolina ports at Charleston, Port Royal, and Savannah. Royal Marines were sent to the Chesapeake Bay because of its naval stores, ships, dockyards, and foundries. Norfolk, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. were among the immediate targets.

United Kingdom
Admiral Sir John Borlase Warren was the commander of North America and the West Indies during the summer of 1812, and in January 1813 Rear Admiral George Cockburn reported to Warren in HMS Marlborough. For the raid on St. Michaels, Cockburn had eight ships and 45 barges, including two battalions of Royal Marines and an army regiment. The forces that came ashore were under the command of Lieutenant James Polkinghorne of the Royal Navy. After the battle, he filed a report with Commander Henry Loraine Baker of the Royal Navy. Baker commanded HMS Conflict, a sloop with 10 to 12 guns (a.k.a. cannons or artillery pieces). The men used barges, which were propelled by oars and small sails, to reach the shore. The barges had a small gun, or "carronade".

United States
The United States had few federal troops near St. Michaels in 1813. Fighting was usually conducted by the state militia. Maryland's militia was organized into three divisions with a total of 12 brigades and 11 cavalry districts. Much of the Talbot County militia was formed in 1807 after the attack on the American USS Chesapeake by the British HMS Leopard. Brigadier General Perry Benson, who was a veteran of the American Revolutionary War, commanded the militia of Talbot, Caroline, and Dorchester counties. His force at the battle consisted of two regiments, several companies of cavalry, and three artillery batteries.

 * 12th Maryland Brigade was commanded by Brigadier General Benson.
 * 4th Maryland Regiment was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel William B. Smyth. It consisted of men mostly from Easton, and had an artillery company.
 * 26th Maryland Regiment was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Hugh Auld, and had companies from the St. Michaels area.
 * 9th Cavalry District was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Edward Lloyd, and included companies from Easton, St. Michaels, and Trappe.
 * two batteries (a third battery was the company that was part of the 4th Maryland Regiment)

Benson's brigade was large, but its training was inadequate. It also had a shortage of weaponry. Muskets were used by companies near threatened positions, and then transferred to the next threat when the original threat passed. Although Benson had a large force at St. Michaels, the fighting was conducted by the artillerists.

Prelude
The British captured Maryland's Kent Island during early August 1813. The island is located north of St. Michaels and across the bay from the Maryland state capital Annapolis. The British landed about 3,000 men on the island, but faced no resistance because most of the inhabitants fled when they learned of the invasion. The island had food and fresh water, and would provide a base for operations against Maryland's Eastern Shore, Annapolis, Baltimore, and Washington.

During this time, the British had ships in Eastern Bay between Kent Island and St. Michaels, causing alarm throughout Talbot County. St. Michaels was a target because of its shipbuilding, and it had at least six vessels in the process of being built. It was also an outport for the town of Easton, which was largest town on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Easton had the only armory on Maryland's Eastern Shore, a bank, and plenty of goods for the British to plunder. Boats and small vessels could be used on the St. Michaels River to get within 3 mi of Easton. A second water route to Easton, Tredhaven Creek, was protected by a six-gun battery called Fort Stokes.

Preparing for the British
Militia from throughout Talbot County were sent to St. Michaels to stand with the local infantry company, Saint Michaels Patriotic Blues, commanded by Captain Joseph Kemp with the artillery men commanded by Lieutenant William Dodson. Kemp's company and at least three of the Easton companies wore uniforms. The militia troops totaled to about 500 men, and they were led by Brigadier General Benson, Colonel Auld, and Colonel Thomas Jones. The men were quartered in the town's two churches.

Benson placed three artillery batteries around the town. East of town, Dodson commanded a group of 30 men with a battery of four guns behind a small fortification. The location was Parrott's Point (also known as Parrott Point), and it was at the mouth of the town's harbor on the south side. A boom was placed across the mouth of the harbor to prevent vessels from entering. Within the town at Dawson's wharf (at the end of Mulberry Street), a two-gun battery on wheels was commanded by John Graham with John Thompson and Wrightson Jones manning the 6-pounder guns. Two more guns were placed outside of town in case the British landed behind the town and marched toward it. This battery of two guns was commanded by Lieutenant Clement Vickers and manned by men from Easton in the company Talbot Volunteer Artillerists.

Videttes were stationed at various points to watch the British at Kent Island, and they reported to either Colonel Auld in St. Michaels or Brigadier General Benson in Easton. A British brig was seen making reconnaissance north of the town near Deep Water Point on the St. Michaels River. A deserter crossed the Eastern Bay and landed at Bayside. He said the British planned to attack St. Michaels within the week, but were worried about what they thought was a 10-gun battery.

Battle
Early in the morning on August 10, a total of 300 British soldiers and marines in nine to eighteen barges moved up the St. Michaels River. The river was over 1 mi wide, and they traveled in fog and darkness along the shore opposite St. Michaels. Videttes on the St. Michaels side of the river did not observe the British force as it moved up the river and passed the harbor. The force crossed the river and arrived at about 4:00am near Parrott's Point in foggy darkness. They disembarked in water near the flank of the Dodson's guns and breastworks, and were discovered by African American John Stevens.

Dodson's surprised men panicked, and most of them dropped their weapons and fled through a cornfield back to town. The British fired a volley from their muskets at the fleeing men, but damaged only the corn. The only men that remained with the guns were Dodson, Stevens, and a third man. The three men were able to re-position one gun, loaded with ball and canister, where it could fire effectively on the British. Having seen Dodson's men run, the British expected to capture the battery without resistance, but instead received the contents of a nine-pounder cannon. Despite their casualties, they continued to the guns while Dodson and his two men fled. The guns were captured and disabled.

Concluding an important part of their mission, the British returned to the barges with their dead and wounded. The barges moved to less than half a mile (0.8 km) from town, but were unable to cross the boom that had been placed earlier. They fired at the town from two guns, then assumed a position further out in the river, where they continued firing "with much vigor". A St. Michaels legend is that the town hung lamps in trees away from the houses, confusing the British and causing them to overshoot their targets. Graham's battery at Dawson's wharf returned fire, and eventually fired a total of 10 shots. Hearing the cannon fire, the Easton artillerists moved their battery from the Bayside road to Mill Point in town, and fired a total of five shots as the British began to retreat.

By 9:00am the artillery duel was over, and the British returned to their base. Benson, his infantry, and his cavalry were waiting at the town square. They outnumbered the British force, but did not need to engage. The town had been successfully defended, and did not suffer the same fate as Havre de Grace.

Casualties
Lieutenant Polkinghorne's report said his British ground force had losses of "only two wounded". Discussing American casualties, Benson's report mentioned that "some of the houses were perforated", but no "injury to any human being". He also implied that the British had casualties, mentioning "much blood on the grass at the water" where the British barges were located. A deserter from the Royal Navy claimed their casualties were one captain, one lieutenant of the marines, and twenty-seven privates. He also thought one of the barges had significant damage. A second deserter believed that one of the British dead was an officer.

Aftermath
The British threatened St. Michaels again on August 26. This time, they sent 2,100 men in 60 barges. They landed about 6 mi north of town, and 1,800 men met 500 Talbot County militia that included infantry, cavalry, and artillery. The largest Maryland Eastern Shore battle of the war lasted only a few volleys because the British withdrew.

Warren reported that he had problems with desertions in the army and poor discipline in the marines. His men began preparing to sail away from Kent Island on August 22 after determining that attacks on Annapolis and Baltimore would be ill-advised because those American cities had received substantial reinforcements. He also wished to sail to Halifax, Canada, before the start of hurricane season. By September, Warren departed to Halifax, and Cockburn had departed for Bermuda. A small "skeleton force" was stationed at the Virginia Capes for blockade purposes.

Performance and legend
Lieutenant Polkinghorne of the British Royal Navy reported that he "deemed the object of the enterprize fulfilled". He did not see any vessels, and one of the reasons the British attacked St. Michaels was to destroy ships being built there. He captured a battery, split the carriages, and destroyed all ammunition. Contrary to Polkinghorne's report, a deserter claimed the expedition was considered a failure, with the reason given was that the expedition leader expected to meet unreliable militia, but instead had too small of a force to cope with regulars. Shots from the British six-pounder guns were generally high, and hit the roofs or higher bables of some houses. Warren's August 23 report to First Secretary of the Admiralty John W. Croker mentioned an attack upon Queenstown, but did not mention St. Michaels.

The American artillerists were said to be more effective than their British counterparts. In addition to the blood found at the site where the British landed their barges, one newspaper reported that three barges were struck by shots fired by the town's artillery. Benson's report said the "militia generally behaved well", and did not mention that some fled without firing a shot. For years afterward, two of the Easton companies feuded with each other over their performance at the battle.

The local story about the August 10 battle is that the town's citizens hung lanterns high in trees, fooling the British into firing over the town. Some even say that the only house hit by the British was the house of shipbuilder William Merchant. However, Benson's report said "Some of the houses were perforated....", and did not mention any deception. More doubt can be placed on the legend since it was probably already daylight by the time the British fired at the town.

Preservation
The St. Michaels Historic District has over 300 structures. William Merchant's home, now known as the Cannonball House, in addition to being part of the historic district, has been part of the National Register of Historic Places since 1983. The battle, also commemorated by the Star-Spangled Banner National Historic Trail, is discussed by two local museums: the St. Michaels Museum at St. Mary's Square, and the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum.

Michael de la Pole, 2nd Earl of Suffolk

Michael de la Pole, 2nd Earl of Suffolk (1367 – 17 September 1415) was an English nobleman who supported Henry IV (reigned 1399–1413) against Richard II (reigned 1377–1399) during the turmoils of the late 14th century. He died during the Siege of Harfleur in 1415. He was the eldest son of Michael de la Pole, 1st Earl of Suffolk and Katherine Wingfield, daughter of Sir John Wingfield.

His father fled abroad amid accusations of treason during the Merciless Parliament in 1388, forfeiting the title of Earl of Suffolk and the family estates. Over the next decade the younger Michael de la Pole made vigorous attempts to recover these lands, and obtained most of them piecemeal between 1389 and 1392, following his father's death. However, his close association with the Lords Appellant, particularly the Earl of Warwick and the Duke of Gloucester prejudiced Richard II against him. He finally obtained the restoration of the earldom in January 1398.

While he obeyed the summons of the Duke of York to defend the kingdom against Henry Bolingbroke in July 1399, Suffolk did not object to the disbandment of York's army and consented to the deposition of Richard II in the summer of 1399. While the first Parliament of Henry IV technically upheld the forfeitures of the Merciless Parliament, Henry IV immediately restored de la Pole's estates and title in recognition of his support. However, he spent the remainder of his life trying to obtain possession of the remaining estates which had not been restored.

He played a relatively small role in national politics, although he regularly attended Parliament. He took part in the campaign in Scotland in 1400, in naval operations around 1405, and served as the senior English diplomat at the Council of Pisa (1409). Suffolk also acted as a lieutenant of the Duke of Clarence during his campaign of 1412–1413. However, he devoted most of his energies to re-establishing de la Pole influence in East Anglia. He took the role of a justice of the peace in Norfolk and Suffolk from 1399, and assembled a considerable following among the local gentry. He completed his father's building plans at Wingfield, Suffolk, and enlarged the local church.

Suffolk brought 40 men-at-arms and 120 archers with him on the 1415 campaign of Henry V in France. He died of dysentery at Harfleur, and was succeeded by his eldest son Michael, who later died at Agincourt.

Issue
Michael married Katherine de Stafford, daughter of Hugh de Stafford, 2nd Earl of Stafford. They were parents to at least eight children:

 * Michael de la Pole (1394-1415), 3rd Earl of Suffolk
 * William de la Pole (1396-1450), 1st Duke of Suffolk
 * Sir Alexander de la Pole (died 1429). Killed at the Battle of Jargeau.
 * Sir John de la Pole (died 1429). Died as a prisoner in France.
 * Sir Thomas de la Pole (aft. 1397–1433). Died in France while a hostage for his brother William. He had a daughter
 * Katherine de la Pole (1416–1488, buried in Rowley Abbey, Oxfordshire), second wife of Sir Miles Stapleton.
 * Katherine de la Pole (1410-1473), Abbess at Barking.
 * Isabel de la Pole (died 1466), married Thomas de Morley, 5th Baron Morley.
 * Elizabeth de la Pole, married (1) Edward Burnell, son of Hugh Burnell, 2nd Baron Burnell, and (2) Sir Thomas Kerdeston

Mario Francesco Pompedda

Carlo Mario Francesco Pompedda (18 April 1929 – 18 October 2006) was an Italian cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church and the Prefect of the Apostolic Signatura for the Roman Curia. He spent nearly fifty years in a variety of posts within the Catholic Church's ecclesiastical court system, from 1955 to 2004.

Biography
Pompedda was born in Ozieri in Sardinia. He studied at seminaries in Sassari and Cuglieri and was ordained a priest in Rome on 23 December 1951. He obtained a doctorate in theology from the Pontifical Gregorian University, and a doctorate in utroque iure (in civil law and canon law) from the Pontifical Lateran University. He became an officer of the Roman Rota, the general appellate court of the Catholic Church, in 1955, serving as a defender of the bond. He joined the tribunal as an auditor in 1969 and served in that capacity until he became Dean of the Roman Rota in 1993. He was appointed Prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura, the highest tribunal in the church, in 1999. He resigned this position, as is customary, upon reaching the age of 75, on 18 April 2004, and his resignation was accepted on 27 May 2004.

Pompedda was appointed titular Archbishop of Bisarcio on 29 November 1997 and consecrated on 6 February 1998. He was proclaimed a Cardinal-Deacon of Santissima Annunciazione della Beata Vergine Maria a Via Ardeatina by Pope John Paul II on 21 February 2001. He was one of the cardinal electors who participated in the 2005 papal conclave that selected Pope Benedict XVI. It was suspected that he may have been the source of information about the conclave published in the Italian journalist Lucio Brunelli in the journal Limes in September 2005; many also suspected that the information was false.

Cardinal Pompedda also served as president of the appellate court of Vatican City and, from 1999, as president of the Court of Cassation of Vatican City. He is credited with drafting Universi Dominici Gregis.

Pompedda taught canon law at the Pontifical Gregorian University. He was also involved in the revision of the code of canon law in 1983, the first substantial revision since 1917. He was also the principal editor of Universi Dominici Gregis, the apostolic constitution of Pope John Paul II published in 1995, which set the rules for the sede vacante and papal conclave. He supported proposals to make it easier to obtain an annulment of marriage, and gave several public lectures in 2003 outlining the changes. He retired before the changes were implemented, and the final document, Dignitas connubii, did not go as far he had expected, reaffirming existing doctrine instead.

Pompedda was appointed as the Cardinal Grand Prior of the Sacred Military Constantinian Order of Saint George by order of the Grand Master, the Duke of Castro. In November 2003, he became the Ecclesiastical Counsellor of the Order by appointment of Pope John Paul II. This position continued under Pope Benedict XVI.

Death and funeral
Cardinal Pompedda died in Rome of a brain hemorrhage. He was buried in a tomb in the cathedral in Ozieri.

On 18 February 2010, his remains were reinterred in a specially constructed sarcophagus in the cathedral of Ozieri at the chapel of the Most Holy Sacrament. The requiem mass was celebrated at 5 pm, presided by Bishop Sergio Pintor of Ozieri. At the end of the mass, Mgr Giuseppe Sciacca, judge of the Roman Rota and a long time collaborator of Cardinal Pompedda, read a special message sent for the occasion by Tarcisio Cardinal Bertone, S.D.B., secretary of State, in the name of Pope Benedict XVI.

Publications
Pompedda wrote and co-wrote several books, including;
 * Il matrimonio nel nuovo codice di diritto canonico: Annotazioni di diritto sostanziale e processuale (Marriage in the New Code of Canon Law: Annotations on Substantive and Procedural Law) (with Cesare Zaggia and Zenon Grocholewski)
 * Matrimonio e sacramento Intenzionalità sacramentale (Marriage and the Sacrament Sacramental Intentionality)
 * Studi di diritto processuale canonico (Studies in Canon Procedural Law)

Madison Area Technical College

Madison Area Technical College (MATC) or Madison College is a public technical and community college based in Madison, Wisconsin. It serves students in parts of 12 counties in south-central Wisconsin: Adams, Columbia, Dane, Dodge, Green, Iowa, Jefferson, Juneau, Marquette, Richland, Rock, and Sauk.

Campus locations include three throughout the city of Madison and four regional sites in the cities of Reedsburg, Watertown, Fort Atkinson, and Portage.

It is among the largest of the 16 schools in the Wisconsin Technical College System. Madison College had a total enrollment of 30,065 in the 2019 - 2020 academic year. According to the 2019 Graduate Report, 92% of students found a job within six months of graduation.

History
The college was founded in 1912 as the Madison Continuation School, providing vocational education, citizenship, and homemaking classes. In 1921, it moved into a building next to the former Madison Central High School in downtown Madison and became known as Madison Vocational School.

In response to the Great Depression, the Madison Vocational School created non-credit, continuing education courses in artisan crafts, such as millinery, woodworking, and chair-caning. During the 1942–43 academic year, courses met on the third shift to teach skills needed for wartime manufacturing jobs. In 1950 the school purchased a Baptist church building as an addition.

Starting in 1966, the college offered college-transfer and credit-bearing courses. In 1987, the primary campus shifted to a larger, east-side facility, built near the Truax Field Dane County Regional Airport.

In 2004, the college opened a campus at Villager Mall on the south side of Madison.

In 2010, a state referendum funded physical updates at regional campuses and new construction at the Truax campus.

In 2019, the college closed its downtown campus at the former Central High School after 88 years.

Nickname change
In 2010 the college began to refer to itself as "Madison College", in part to help end confusion with Milwaukee Area Technical College, which also uses the acronym "MATC". The official name of the school remains Madison Area Technical College.

Facilities upgrade
On November 2, 2010, 60 percent of voters supported the Madison College Smart Community Plan, a $133,770,000 plan for new facilities, renovations, and upgrades to meet the increasing demand for education and job training. Projects included in the plan were a Health Education Building, including a public clinic, dental hygiene clinic, and massage therapy clinic; a Protective Service Center; an emergency vehicle operations course; the Truax gateway, which contains a library, student achievement center, and enrollment center; and new classrooms, labs, and learning centers at the regional campuses in Fort Atkinson, Reedsburg, Portage, and Watertown.

In response to the need for accessible, quality higher education facilities and community gathering spaces in Madison's most underserved part of the city, Madison College opened its new, expanded Goodman South Campus in Fall 2019. This $23 million, state-of-the-art facility was funded largely by private donations.

Academics
The school offers more than 180 associate degrees and technical diploma programs, as well as trade apprenticeships and other certifications.

The Liberal Arts transfer program offers associate of arts and associate of sciences degrees that satisfy the first two years of general studies at some four-year institutions. Madison College has seven tailored liberal arts pre-majors designed for transfer. The University of Wisconsin--Madison is the school's largest transfer partner.

Madison College offers 11 areas of study:

 * Architecture & Engineering

In addition to traditional, in-person, campus-based courses, the college offers degrees and courses in online and hybrid models.

Adult continuing education programs offer non-credit professional and personal development classes. In 2014, Madison College began to offer digital badges for learning.

Madison College welcomes students from diverse experiences:

 * High school students
 * International students
 * Returning students
 * Students with disabilities
 * Transfer students
 * Veterans
 * Regional students from outside of Madison

Financial aid and scholarships are available for students who need help paying for college.
