Roger Sherman, Oliver Ellsworth, and the Formation of America\u27s Constitutional Order (Chapter Five of Great Christian Jurists in American History)

In 1822, former President John Adams wrote to the biographer John Sanderson that Roger Sherman was one of the most cordial friends which I ever had in my life. Destitute of all literary and scientific education, but such as he acquired by his own exertions, he was one of the most sensible men in the world. The clearest head and steadiest heart. It is praise enough to say that the late Chief Justice Ellsworth told me that he had made Mr. Sherman his model in his youth .... [He] was one of the soundest and strongest pillars of the revolution. Among the important participant~ in the War for Independence, the Constitutional Convention, and the First Federal Congress, few had as much influence on the creation of America\u27s constitutional order as Sherman and Ellsworth. And none of the more famous founders regularly referenced by students of the era represent as well the 50-75 percent of Americans in this era who were Calvinists

Corrosion Damage Analysis and Material Characterization of Sherman and Centaur - The Historic Military Tanks

A study of corrosion damage and material characterization of two historic military tanks, the Sherman and Centaur is reported. Experiments were conducted to analyse surface corrosion and corrosion propagation from surface to sub-surface. Significant surface corrosion was found, this phenomenon was further facilitated by delamination failure mechanisms. Corrosion depth for the Sherman was approximately 110 µm, where sulphide inclusions were detected in the sub-surface analysis. The Centaur’s analysis showed corrosion pits at 100 µm depth. These pits possess random geometrical configurations with evidence of sulfur, sodium and calcium

Small-angle scattering and quasiclassical approximation beyond leading order

In the present paper we examine the accuracy of the quasiclassical approach on the example of small-angle electron elastic scattering. Using the quasiclassical approach, we derive the differential cross section and the Sherman function for arbitrary localized potential at high energy. These results are exact in the atomic charge number and correspond to the leading and the next-to-leading high-energy small-angle asymptotics for the scattering amplitude. Using the small-angle expansion of the exact amplitude of electron elastic scattering in the Coulomb field, we derive the cross section and the Sherman function with a relative accuracy $\theta^2$ and $\theta^1$, respectively ($\theta$ is the scattering angle). We show that the correction of relative order $\theta^2$ to the cross section, as well as that of relative order $\theta^1$ to the Sherman function, originates not only from the contribution of large angular momenta $l\gg 1$, but also from that of $l\sim 1$. This means that, in general, it is not possible to go beyond the accuracy of the next-to-leading quasiclassical approximation without taking into account the non-quasiclassical terms.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figure

Accrediting and the Sherman Act

The shortcomings of the Sherman Act as it relates to private accrediting are examined in order to assist courts in minimizing the anticompetitive features of accreditation and maximizing its procompetitive benefits. A lack of clear legal principles to guide factual analysis and to facilitate the granting of summary judgment in appropriate cases has led to unfocused and protracted litigation

William Tecumseh Sherman In The Service Of My Country: A Life

The Continuing Relevance of William Sherman When William Sherman was yet a cadet at West Point, he proudly declared himself in the service of my country (161). James McDonough chronicles this journey of service that brought Sherman from humble cadet to full general in William Tecumseh Sherman...

COOPERATIVE ANTITRUST MONOPOLIZATION AND THE THEORY OF CONTESTABLE MARKETS

The judiciary has relied on a firm's market share to evaluate the presence of monopoly power for a Sherman Act monopolization violation. However, an allegation that a firm's market share constitutes monopoly power may be refuted by evidence that there exists a contestable market. Contestable market theory shows that there is no monopoly power where there exists a threat of entry of other firms. This theory thereby offers agricultural cooperatives, which may have a large market share by reasons of the antitrust immunity provided by the Capper-Volstead Act, an argument to overcome allegations of a Sherman Act monopolization violation.Industrial Organization,
