Two-dimensional series evaluations via the elliptic functions of Ramanujan and Jacobi
We evaluate in closed form, for the first time, certain classes of double
series, which are remindful of lattice sums. Elliptic functions, singular
moduli, class invariants, and the Rogers--Ramanujan continued fraction play
central roles in our evaluationsComment: 12 page

Enterprise Risk Management For Fishing Tournaments
The fishing tournament industry is confronted with many of the same risks as other industries (such as financial statement misstatements), share some risks specific with others (such as cheating in casinos), and face some unique risks (such as the risk of competitors adding weight to fish). This teaching case explores some of the risks inherent in the fishing tournament industry. Students are given background information about a how a tournament operates and then asked to perform an overall risk assessment using the COSO enterprise risk management framework. Elements of the assignment include assessing the internal environment, setting of objectives, and then identifying, prioritizing, and responding to risks. Students are also asked to make recommendations for improving the information and communications process and for improving monitoring activities. The case contains the following elements:Case Narrative Instructors ManualCase ObjectivesBasic Pedagogy (course, level, position in the course, prerequisite knowledge)Teaching MethodsCase SummaryKey IssuesDiscussion questions and suggested responsesTeaching TipsInstructor TablesHandoutsEpilogue The case is suited for use in several business courses at the undergraduate or graduate level. It can be used in part or in its entirety, and can be adjusted for difficulty levels. It is also adaptable to any of the major risk management models

An address given by appointment of the American Revolution Bicentennial Commission on the occasion of the two hundredth anniversary of the evacuation of Charleston by the British on Tuesday, the fourteenth of December, 1982 at ten-thirty o'clock in the morning, Trinity Cathedral, Columbia, South Carolina
This address tells of the evacuation of British forces from Charleston in 1782 and the state movements in history that came out of that evacuation. The first was to make a virgin land bloom. The second great movement was that by which the lowcountry agreed to share power with the upcountry. The third movement is to see that all share equally in the success of our republican experiment

Improved Quantum Hard-Sphere Ground-State Equations of State
The London ground-state energy formula as a function of number density for a
system of identical boson hard spheres, corrected for the reduced mass of a
pair of particles in a sphere-of-influence picture, and generalized to fermion
hard-sphere systems with two and four intrinsic degrees of freedom, has a
double-pole at the ultimate \textit{regular} (or periodic, e.g.,
face-centered-cubic) close-packing density usually associated with a
crystalline branch. Improved fluid branches are contructed based upon exact,
field-theoretic perturbation-theory low-density expansions for many-boson and
many-fermion systems, appropriately extrapolated to intermediate densities, but
whose ultimate density is irregular or \textit{random} closest close-packing as
suggested in studies of a classical system of hard spheres. Results show
substantially improved agreement with the best available Green-function Monte
Carlo and diffusion Monte Carlo simulations for bosons, as well as with ladder,
variational Fermi hypernetted chain, and so-called L-expansion data for
two-component fermions.Comment: 15 pages and 7 figure
