Minnesota Escort
Zebulon Pike
Pike expected and deserved a period of inactivity after this arduous trip. Instead, Gen. Wilkinson immediately ordered him on a second, more fateful reconnaissance. The second expedition was ostensibly designed to accomplish several goals. Pike was to provide an escort for some Osage Indians who had been held as hostages by the Pottawatamies, and take them back to their home villages; negotiate a peace settlement between the Kansas and Pawnee tribes; and attempt to make contact with the Comanche people on the high plains. Pike was also to explore the headwaters of the Arkansas River, then to proceed south, locate the source of the Red River, and descend it to the Mississippi. But his real mission was to find out what the Spanish were doing along the poorly defined southwestern border of the Louisiana Purchase. While in that area, it would be necessary, wrote Wilkinson, to "move with great circumspect, to keep clear of any hunting or reconnoitering parties from that province and t ... [Read More]

Cas A meeting agenda so far
Dear All,We hope everyone is making plans to visit NRL in a couple of weeks.Directions are posted on the Cas A discussion website under Una's "VLPLogistics" e-mail. The only thing I really need to add is for anyone drivingto NRL along I-295. If the traffic suddenly slows to 50 mph or below, watchout for an unmarked police car on the shoulder with a camera and radar gun!Martin Laming will have to escort the foreign nationals (Jacco Vink, CarlesBadenes, and Martin Pohl) into NRL, so it is probably best if we all drivein together on Thursday morning. All US citizens and permanent residents can enter unescorted, though everyone must obtain a visitor's badge inbuilding 72 first, and should bring some proof of citizenship, whether US orotherwise.Participants so far (please feel free to tell anyone you think might beinterested who isn't on this list, question marks indicate doubtfulattendees) ...Una Hwang, (PI), GSFCRobert Petre, GSFCMartin Laming, NRLNamir Kassim, NRLFred Berendse (contracto ...

At around 4 or 5 p.m., I leave for home. If I must stay late for a parents' meeting, students escort me home on their bikes. I may spend my evenings going for a run, buying fruit from a Salvadoran vendor who greets me in Spanish, stopping for water and Creole bread from the shop around the corner, or getting the latest news from my neighbor who waylays me at my gate to tell me the latest gossip. After cooking and eating my dinner, I may read, write letters, or visit with friends. ... [Read More]
How Much It Costs
The claim for the escort was $103.20. However, the attorney general disputed White's need for so many extra guards and ruled that $93.20 was denied because Devil Anse was later acquitted. He gave White the option of appealing to a judge, but there was little sympathy for the marshal. Historical perspective gives new insights to old legends. But somewhere lost in the legends was the reality of paying for them. ... [Read More]
Weekly Standard
There is still one more vital element to this equation: jobs. The U.S.Department of Transportation estimates that every additional $1 billioninvested by the federal government in transportation creates 47,500 newjobs. One of the Bush administration's greatest weaknesses going into the2004 presidential election is the staggering number of American jobs lostsince 2001. What better counter could the president hope for when theyare attacked by Democrats on the job issue than a massive public worksprogram that benefits big business just as much as the average commuter?Before he vetoes any highway reauthorization bill over $256 billion, maybethe president ought to take a trip around the Washington Beltway duringrush-hour--without the massive police escort every commuter dreams of whenstuck in Washington's notorious gridlock. ...
