Since 2007, security has improved dramatically in Iraq. The U.S. and Iraqi governments - and most Iraqis - want to see both the U.S. presence there reduced and the Iraqi government and security forces assuming a greater role in providing for public security. The challenge is to effect this drawdown while preserving security and stability in the country and in the region. In response to tasking from the U.S. Congress, RAND researchers conducted an independent study to examine drawdown schedules, risks, and mitigating strategies. They identified logistical constraints on moving equipment out of the country, assessed trends in insurgent activity and the ability of Iraqi security forces to counter it, and examined the implications for the size of the residual U.S. force and for security in Iraq and the region. This book presents alternative drawdown schedules - one consistent with the Obama administration's stated intentions and two others, one somewhat slower and another faster - that are responsive to these factors.It also recommends steps that the United States can take to alleviate anticipated constraints, overcome likely resistance, and reduce the potential risks associated with a drawdown. For more than 60 years, decisionmakers in the public and private sectors have turned to the RAND Corporation for objective analysis and effective solutions that address the challenges facing the nation and the world.

Plain and simple: until our English learners have equitable access to the curriculum, they’ll continue to struggle with subject area content. And if you’re relying on add-on’s to fit in from your language arts basal or a supplementary program, Mary Soto, David Freeman, and Yvonne Freeman are here to equip you with much more effective, efficient, and engaging strategies for helping your English learners read and write at grade level. One assurance right from the start: Mary, David, and Yvonne are not suggesting you reinvent your curriculum. Instead, Equitable Access for English Learners, Grades K-6, focuses on how to fortify foundational practices already in place. First, you’ll learn more about the Equitable Access Approach, then it’s time to dive into the book’s four units of study. Drawing on each unit’s many strategies, you’ll discover how to apply them to any unit in your own language arts curriculum and start differentiating: How to draft and implement language objectives to help English learners meet academic content standardsHow to make instructional input comprehensible, including translanguaging strategies that draw on your students’ first languages when you don’t know how to speak themHow to utilize the characteristics of text to support readers, along with a rubric for determining a text’s cultural relevance How to build students’ academic content knowledge and develop academic language proficiency Each unit addresses a commonly taught topic in today’s language arts programs and comes with ready-to-go review and preview activities, key strategies, grade-level adaptations, reflection exercises, and printable online resources. Taken as a whole, they constitute an all-new approach for providing that equitable and excellent access our English learners so rightfully deserve. "When you adopt our Equitable Access Approach, your students will not only thrive, they’ll also find your language arts curriculum much more meaningful and engaging." —Mary Soto, David E. Freeman, and Yvonne S. Freeman
Uneven Ground

In the early 1970s, the federal government began recognizing self-determination for American Indian nations. As sovereign entities, Indian nations have been able to establish policies concerning health care, education, religious freedom, law enforcement, gaming, and taxation. Yet these gains have not gone unchallenged. Starting in the late 1980s, states have tried to regulate and profit from casino gambling on Indian lands. Treaty rights to hunt, fish, and gather remain hotly contested, and traditional religious practices have been denied protection. Tribal courts struggle with state and federal courts for jurisdiction. David E. Wilkins and K. Tsianina Lomawaima discuss how the political rights and sovereign status of Indian nations have variously been respected, ignored, terminated, and unilaterally modified by federal lawmakers as a result of the ambivalent political and legal status of tribes under western law.

Domesday Names

First-ever full index to people and place-names in Domesday in their original forms. Presented here is the first complete, all Latin index to the Domesday Book, comprising two Indices Personarum and one Index Locorum. The main Index Personarumcontains all references to people: named individuals, title-holders, and `institutions' (collections of persons functioning as individual landholders in the Domesday text); individuals are listed alphabetically under the initial letter of their forename, while `institutions' are entered under the place where they are located. The second, shorter Index Personarum lists all people alphabetically under their surname. In both indexes the exact Latin forms given in Domesday Book and all variant spellingshave been retained. The Index Locorumlists all place-names in Domesday, except where linked to an `institution': the names of administrative units have been incorporated alphabetically into this index with the appropriate term added after the name. Cross-references to other counties have also been included. Again, the Latin form in the Domesday text is given exactly. References are to the 1783 Farley and more recent Phillimore editions.

A Cross-Industry Analysis of Financial Ratios

A Cross-Industry Analysis of Financial Ratios

Whether used as predictors or indicators of stock prices, financial risk, merger candidates, or bond yields, financial ratios have been, and continue to be, a popular tool for analyzing a firm and its performance. Practitioners and academics who employ financial ratios often compare and contrast across several industries, but such evaluations assume that the ratios of one industry measure the same underlying concepts as the ratios of another. This book provides evidence on the comparability of financial ratios across several industries, assessing the similarity or dissimilarity of ratios among industry taxonomies, or groups of ratios. Extending previous studies that focused primarily on manufacturing firms, this work surveys a wide variety of both manufacturing and retail corporations, and determines the classification patterns of their respective financial ratios. The taxonomies of thirty two ratios, in seven representative industries, are examined for the ten-year period from 1978 through 1987. Two introductory chapters detail the nature of the research, the data utilized, variables employed, and statistical methodologies, as well as providing a brief summary of the results. A third chapter furnishes results for the entire economy by factors of return, cash flow, cash position, inventory, sales, liquidity, and debt; while seven separate chapters describe the study's conclusions for each of the primary industries: automobile and aerospace; chemical, rubber, and oil; electronics; food; retail; steel; and textile. The work concludes with a summary of the study and its conclusions, and an examination of the limitations of this type of research and possibilities for its extension. This book will be a valuable practical resource for accounting and finance professionals, as well as an important reference for courses in finance, accounting, and management. Public, academic, and business libraries will also find it a useful addition to their collections.

The authors of this report examine what happened in the crucial 1863 Battle of Gettysburg and create an alternative history by examining what could have happened if a few key technologies that were available for military use had been used in this battle. Would the outcome have been different if the Union and Confederate armies had deployed these technologies?

Hinandens verden. Ledsager til K.E. Løgstrup: Den etiske fordring
Skønt K.E. Løgstrup satte en ære i at benytte dagligsproget og gerne tog udgangspunkt i livet, som vi kender det, er han ofte ganske svær at gå til. Med 'Hinandens verden' får læseren nu en ledsager, der analyserer, forklarer og diskuterer argumentations­gangen i 'Den etiske fordring'. Til belysning af K.E. Løgstrups hoved­værk inddrages andre tekster fra forfatterskabet samt fag- og skønlitteratur, der kan bidrage til forståelsen af denne originale klassiker i nyere dansk åndsliv.
Løgstrup & skolen

Løgstrup & skolen

David Bugge med bidrag af Bente Kasper Madsen og tekster af K.E. Løgstrup

De tre forfattere har hver sin egen plads i bogens tre dele, der består af David Bugges fremstilling og udfoldelse af Løgstrups tanker, Bente Kasper Madsens refleksioner og case-baserede anvendelse af disse og til sidst selve det tekstlige grundlag i form af Løgstrups egne artikler. Tilsammen udgør delene en velstruktureret og særdeles tankevækkende perspektivdragning til tidens debat om folkeskolen i lyset af den aktuelle reform og til synet på læring, uddannelse og undervisning i det hele taget.Få danske tænkere har øvet så stor indflydelse på vores skoletradition som K.E. Løgstrup. For længst er hans filosofi og hans begreber om bl.a. ’talens åbenhed’ og ’urørlighedszonen’ gået ind i den pædagogiske forskning og undervisning. Og fra et bredt spektrum af det politiske liv hører man jævnligt hans synspunkter inddraget i den løbende debat.?’Løgstrup & skolen’ er en grundbog om Løgstrups skolesyn. Løgstrup-forskeren David Bugge fører læseren omkring de vigtigste tanker – i et sprog, så både forskere, studerende og alment interesserede kan have glæde af bogen. Seminarielektor Bente Kasper Madsen knytter i et perspektiverende bidrag emnet til den seneste udvikling i skolen, og endelig rummer bogen tre af Løgstrups vigtigste tekster om skole og pædagogik.
