This document discusses Mary, the mother of Jesus, and several Catholic feasts and traditions related to her. It outlines some of the major Marian feasts celebrated throughout the year, including her birth, presentation in the temple, and immaculate conception. It also describes the seven sorrows of Mary and how she suffered during Jesus' life and death, such as at the prophecy of Simeon and at the foot of the cross. The document concludes by providing background information on Michelangelo's famous sculpture the Pieta, which depicts Mary holding the body of Jesus after his crucifixion.
First Crusade--Kerbogha
On June 28, 1098, Bohemond, the leader of the Christian army of the First Crusade, decided to attack Emir Kerbogha of Mosul's larger army that was besieging Antioch. Kerbogha had around 75,000 men compared to the Crusaders' smaller force. However, at the critical moment the emirs abandoned Kerbogha, surprising him. Instead of the weak army Kerbogha expected, he found a large, unified Christian force that defeated his divided troops, forcing him to retreat back to Mosul as a broken man and allowing the Crusaders to capture Antioch.
Palestinian Incitement (Jerusalem)
The document discusses Palestinian and Hamas incitement regarding Jerusalem in recent years. It provides examples of statements by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and other officials that deny Jewish ties to Jerusalem, accuse Jews of trying to destroy Muslim holy sites, and justify violence. The document also presents social media posts and videos by Hamas and other groups calling for attacks against Jews in Jerusalem. Overall, the document argues that this type of incitement from Palestinian and Islamic organizations is a key factor fueling the recent rise in terrorist attacks and violence in Jerusalem.

The U.S. Army did not effectively report $419.5 million in inventory losses of 15,600 pieces of equipment at Redistribution Property Assistance Team (RPAT) yards in Afghanistan in Fiscal Year 2013. Specifically, the 401st Army Field Support Brigade did not report the missing equipment in a timely manner, with some Financial Liability Investigation of Property Loss reports taking over 300 days to complete instead of the recommended 75 days. As a result, the Army Sustainment Command lacked accurate accountability and visibility of property in Afghanistan.

IPIN'14: Foot-Mounted Inertial Navigation Made Easy
Despite being around for almost two decades, footmounted inertial navigation only has gotten a limited spread. Contributing factors to this are lack of suitable hardware platforms and difficult system integration. As a solution to this, we present an open-source wireless foot-mounted inertial navigation module with an intuitive and significantly simplified dead reckoning interface. The interface is motivated from statistical properties of the underlying aided inertial navigation and argued to give negligible information loss. The module consists of both a hardware platform and embedded software. Details of the platform and the software are described, and a summarizing description of how to reproduce the module are given. System integration of the module is outlined and finally, we provide a basic performance assessment of the module. In summary, the module provides a modularization of the foot-mounted inertial navigation and makes the technology significantly easier to use.
