falklands war The Falklands War
kenny andrew replied to leon21's topic in History Forum
Here's a very good documentary, well worth watching about the first Operation Black Buck. Operations Black Buck 1 to Black Buck 7 were a series of seven extremely long-range ground attack missions by Royal Air Force. Vulcan bombers of the RAF Waddington Wing, comprising aircraft from Nos 44, 50 and 101 Squadrons against Argentine positions in the Falkland Islands, of which five missions completed attacks. The objectives of all missions were to attack Port Stanley Airport and its associated defences. The raids, at almost 6,600 nautical miles and 16 hours for the return journey, were the longest ranged bombing raids in history at that time. The Vulcan B.1 was first delivered to the RAF in 1956 deliveries of the improved Vulcan B.2 started in 1960. The B.2 featured more powerful engines, a larger wing, an improved electrical system and electronic countermeasures many were modified to accept the Blue Steel missile. As a part of the V-force, the Vulcan was the backbone of the United Kingdom's airborne nuclear deterrent during much of the Cold War. Although the Vulcan was typically armed with nuclear weapons, it was capable of conventional bombing missions, a capability which was used in Operation Black Buck during the Falklands War between the United Kingdom and Argentina in 1982.

"It was absolutely not a war crime. It was an act of war, lamentably legal." The above was said by the Belgrano's captain, Hector Bonzo, in an interview two years before his death in 2009. Since that fateful afternoon on May 2, 1982, the sinking of the Argentinian cruiser Belgrano by the British nuclear-powered submarine Conqueror has been regarded as one of the most controversial events of the Falklands War. Many British critics of the action, which resulted in the deaths of 323 Argentinian sailors, see the sinking as a war crime. In their eyes, the action was a disgraceful act of provocation by Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher designed to escalate the conflict. However, it doesn't quite work that way. The Belgrano was sunk outside the 200-nautical-mile total exclusion zone around the Falklands. Exclusion zones are historically declared for the benefit of neutral vessels; during war, under international law, the heading and location of a belligerent naval vessel has no bearing on its status. In addition, the captain of the Belgrano, Héctor Bonzo, has testified that the attack was legitimate as did the Argentine government in 1994. Though the ship was outside the 200-mile exclusion zone, both sides understood that this was no longer the limit of British action. On 23 April a message was passed via the Swiss Embassy in Buenos Aires to the Argentine government, it read: "In announcing the establishment of a Maritime Exclusion Zone around the Falkland Islands, Her Majesty's Government made it clear that this measure was without prejudice to the right of the United Kingdom to take whatever additional measures may be needed in the exercise of its right of self-defence under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter. In this connection Her Majesty's Government now wishes to make clear that any approach on the part of Argentine warships, including submarines, naval auxiliaries or military aircraft, which could amount to a threat to interfere with the mission of British Forces in the South Atlantic will encounter the appropriate response. All Argentine aircraft, including civil aircraft engaged in surveillance of these British forces, will be regarded as hostile and are liable to be dealt with accordingly." Interviews conducted by Martin Middlebrook for his book, The Fight For The Malvinas, indicated that Argentine Naval officers understood the intent of the message was to indicate that any ships operating near the exclusion zone could be attacked. Argentine Rear Admiral Allara, who was in charge of the task force that the Belgrano was part of, said "After that message of 23 April, the entire South Atlantic was an operational theatre for both sides. We, as professionals, said it was just too bad that we lost the Belgrano". The modified rules of engagement permitted the engagement of Belgrano outside the exclusion zone before the sinking. In his book, One Hundred Days, Admiral Woodward makes it clear that he regarded the Belgrano as part of the southern part of a pincer movement aimed at the task force, and had to be sunk quickly "The speed and direction of an enemy ship can be irrelevant, because both can change quickly. What counts is his position, his capability and what I believe to be his intention." Admiral Enrique Molina Pico, head of the Argentine Navy in the 1990s, wrote in a letter to La Nación, published in the 2 May 2005 edition, that the Belgrano was part of an operation that posed a real threat to the British task force, that it was holding off for tactical reasons, and that being outside of the exclusion zone was unimportant as it was a warship on tactical mission. This is the official position of the Argentine Navy. HMS Conqueror returns home. It was commanded by 36-year-old Commander Christopher Wreford-Brown. Built in 1971, it carried a crew of more than 100 HMS CONQUEROR Churchill-class Nuclear Powered Fleet Submarine

Not sure how many companies made them, but if you post some pictures we will see what we can do to help.
Excellent the main priority is to post the pictures, then the makers can be edited at leisure, I'm sure the other forum members will be happy to help identify them too
Excellent photos Gildwiller, it would be good if you edited them to include who the maker is for each one, if it can be worked out. We would then have a really good reference of maker marks. I see Leon has already identified one as Bury's of Sheffield.
Great helmets Gildwiller1918 look forward to seeing more, they will be excellent for our data base

One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. The aims of terrorism and guerrilla warfare may well be identical but they are distinguished from each other by the targets of their operations. The guerrilla fighter's targets are military ones, while the terrorist deliberately targets civilians. By this definition, a terrorist organization can no longer claim to be 'freedom fighters' because they are fighting for national liberation. Even if its declared ultimate goals are legitimate, an organization that deliberately targets civilians is a terrorist organization.

The vegan trend is becoming quite popular in many parts of the country, and this is primarily due to the favorable health impact it has on individuals. Eating vegan has shown to be monumentally beneficial for this who suffer from many illnesses and sicknesses that become prominent due to poor dieting habits.
Aside from just health products, cosmetic reduces have also become quite popular. Cosmetic products such as lime crime have become highly desired cosmetic products because of the no use of animal products.
The WHO has documented on numerous occasions that eating meat as well as using certain products is one of the primary causes of people developing cancer. Aside from eating meat, processed food and products are also quite hazardous to one's overall health.
The benefits of using vegan products like cosmetics, cleaning products and eating vegan food – or plenty of dark green foods – have shown and proven to be some of the best combatants towards fighting many illnesses and sicknesses.
Cancer is becoming a significant threat to people all around the world, and it has been shown that by just changing your diet and incorporating more raw food and dark greens into your diet that you can easily prevent and fight off cancer cells.
Process food and manufactured products are some of the most dangerous enemies to our health.
What Can You Do To Start?
Becoming a vegan will not be easy. And for many who have gone their whole life eating meat and eating many processed food – eating raw healthy food will be quite the challenge. But for those who are serious about changing their diet plans and about eating and living a much healthier lifestyle it would prove invaluable to start out slow.
By just cutting certain meats like pork and beef and fast food from your diet will help to build that strength you need to start cutting all others harmful and unhealthy foods.
By substituting fried food side dishes with dark green vegetables, you will be able to better ween yourself off of the toxic foods.
It will be a difficult task – as many processed foods are created to be highly addictive, and this is one of the reasons why it proves so hard to eat healthily. The manufactured toxic food becomes so heavily ingrained in many peoples system that most people cannot, initially, stomach it.
But with time and one day at a time it will become easy, and it is possible to kick those harmful eating habits.

FLOP, POP, FIZZLE, The Obligatory Weekend B.O. Report: That Was 'It'?!
Not surprisingly, Sony waited until this weekend's numbers were reported to announce that they will be reneging on their original plan to release the movie theatrically for two weeks only. This Is It will now stay in theaters through Thanksgiving weekend.
Audience members too spooked for This Is It made their way to Paranormal Activity, which dropped to second place, but still earned a healthy $16.5M. This weekend's total brings its new cume to $84.8M and well on its way to to the $100M mark.
Not even the fact that it was Halloween weekend was enough to convince audiences to check out the latest installment of the Saw franchise. Following its weak second place debut last week, Saw VI, fell to fifth place. After such a lackluster performance, the likelihood that Saw VII will go direct-to-video is probably a safe bet.

What can a city region do to encourage the collection, recycling and reuse of both plastic and construction waste? VITO has developed an online portal that is publicly accessible and whose content can be improved or supplemented. This 'living' overview should prompt the city region of Ghent to take targeted actions regarding the circular economy and involve local businesses.
A while back, the City of Ghent issued a tender to analyse the potential of circular economy in the city region (Ghent together with the port area and the municipality of Destelbergen). The focus here was on two material streams: plastics and building materials. With such reporting, the streams are traditionally analysed in detail via an extensive survey and stakeholders are questioned. All the information is then incorporated into a cumbersome report.
While the plastic stream offers few prospects for impact at city level, the opposite applies to construction waste. "Building materials and demolition waste are typically a given at local level", says Broos. "Producers are generally in the area and with construction waste you do not have to drive to the other side of the country. Moreover, they are available large quantities in a city like Ghent – particularly if you take the port into account".
For example, the wiki shows in a graphic how much bitumen is purchased each year, how much is on the Ghent roofs ('in stock'), and how much is disposed of as construction waste. This graphical representation is useful for stakeholders, because it immediately clearly shows where there are possible gaps. For example, are all by-products actually included in the analysis?
Ghent would not be Ghent if the administration did not use the potential of circular economy to make the city more sustainable, with a strong focus on climate. Thus, the city wants to build a pavement this year consisting of CO2-negative 'stepping stones'. These stones are produced according to the Carbstone process, in which building materials are made from steel slags (e.g. originating from the steel plants in the port of Ghent) and considerable quantities of carbon dioxide. With the Stepping Stone project (which is subsidised by the Circular Flanders program, and which, in addition to VITO, includes the cooperation of the City of Ghent, Orbix, Ghent University and Peter Stouthuysen, ed.), we want to make the circular economy tangible in the urban environment", says Liesbeth Horckmans of VITO. On the one hand, we want to use this demonstration project to literally bring the people of Ghent into contact with a CO2-negative infrastructure. On the other hand, we want to learn from its practical implementation. A city administration has a lot of impetus in this area. For example, it can stimulate circular and sustainable building by prescribing it in its specifications for public works.

MMM: Students must pay N2bn debt, says UNIOSUN Vice Chancellor
The Vice Chancellor of Osun State University, Prof. Labode Popoola, said on Saturday that the institution would collect the over N2bn debt students owe it whether they are able to recoup their money invested in the Mavrodi Mondial Moneybox or not.
Popoola said,
"Some of them (students) used their school fees to invest in MMM. But whether MMM comes back or not, it is their headache. I have told them that we are not going to open the portal. If I see that a critical mass of the students pay, then we will decide to open the portal just for about 48 hours. But they must pay first.
"This is how we accumulated a debt profile of over N2bn, we cannot continue this way. They just have to pay the money."
But MMM 'investors' have not been able to get their money back as of the time of filing this report.
In a chat with an MMM representative, one Juliana 'Consultant', told one of our correspondents that payment had not begun on Saturday but that the scheme would "pay soon."
"Some accounts are frozen and 'GH' have commenced," she said.

Think of your relationship with your dog like that between a parent and child. Build a relationship based on trust, guidance and teaching your dog appropriate responses. Provide guidance, direction, consistency, predictability and security rather than punishment. Physical and verbal reprimands are unnecessary.
Understand your dog's perspective: Remember dogs are amoral, opportunistic, self-centered, social, constantly learning and they explore the world with their mouths. In other words, dogs make the most of current opportunities.
Be a good teacher: Control what your dog learns. Set your dog up to succeed. Don't waste your time telling your dog what not to do. Instead, teach him the correct behaviour and reward the behaviour that you want.
Be consistent: Inconsistency and unpredictability cause fear and anxiety leading to behaviour problems. Reprimanding jumping one day and rewarding it the next will confuse your dog. Set the rules of the household and make your interactions predictable and consistent.
Be your dog's advocate: Your dog cannot speak up for himself. Be aware of his body language and protect him from overwhelming situations. A well-meaning group of children running over and surrounding your puppy can be frightening. You need to be willing to intervene and prevent negative experiences.

Masters (MS) in Germany – Costs in Rupees, Top universities, Eligibility requirements
By MBA Crystal Ball on February 3, 2017
Oktoberfest isn't the only thing in Germany that attracts international visitors. Education is the other draw, though it doesn't get as much media attention.
Germany is known for its intellectual rearing of some of the most famous scientists, inventors and academics in the world. Even ones with professions miles away from science and technology, have heard of household names like the uber famous Einstein or the the man behind the first invention that paved the way for all the Benzs', BMWs, Porsches and even Marutis of the current world, Karl Benz. And the list goes on if one were to count the number of Nobel laureates from Deustchland alone.
So it is safe to say that Germany has a favorable environment to train some of the best in the world. And with a more global approach to education, the rest of world has started taking note of the opportunities that this country has to offer.
According to IIE.org, there are 235,858 international students in mostly public, and some private institutions, in Germany as of 2015. With the majority being from China, India is a close contender at nearly 12,000 students or about 13% of their student population.
Apart from the historically rich education standard, Germany also has other head turning qualities in its system. Cost of a degree is far cheaper than US. Health Insurance is slightly pricier than peanuts (~ 50 Euros or INR 3500) and The German Academic Exchange Service, fondly known as DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst), besides other resources, provides funding opportunities to domestic and international students in Germany.
MS/Masters in Germany – The Basics
Here, we will cover some of the basics of getting into a graduate program in Germany, along with a few relevant statistics. The information has mainly been gathered mainly from DAAD India and IIE.org. Though the cumulative picture may combine both undergraduate and graduate, while we are more concerned about graduate students (about 124,000 in number), these numbers below show a trend in popularity of the subjects being pursued.
Business and Management 58,227
Engineering 38,206
Physical and Life Sciences 13,100
Social Sciences 19,594
Mathematics and Computer Sciences 16,751
Fine and Applied Arts 21,553
Health Professions 29,383
Humanities 19,358
Agriculture 11,261
Other 3,582

The University System
Having been acquainted with the popular fields, the most natural question then arises is where? The system of colleges familiar to us is not the story there. The University system in Germany is mainly of three varieties. The first is the usual Technological University (TU) kind which supports advanced degrees and research, including PhD.
The second caters to education and training in Applied Sciences, better known as the tongue twisting Fachhochshulen. These generally have ties to industries and are more akin to our version of professional degrees like engineering, business administration, etc. And finally there are specialized institutes teaching arts, music and other creative fields.
The top Universities in Germany, according to the QS World University Rankings of 2016, are among the best in the world. Some of the elites are listed here. The field and specialty specific University rankings is contingent on other factors and hence is possibly different from the overall rankings.
List of the best ranking universities in Germany
Rank in Germany
Technical University of Munich 1 60
Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat München 2 68
Ruprecht-Karls-Universitaet Heidelberg 3 72
Karisruhe Institute of Technology 4 98
Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin 5 121
Freie Universitaet Berlin 6 123
RWTH Aachen University 7 146
Albert-Ludwigs-Universitaet Freiburg 8 163
Technische Universitat Berlin (TU Berlin) 9 164
Eberhard Karls Universitat Tubingen 10 167
The Application Procedure
Unlike the traditional GRE system, there are no universal testing schemes in Germany. The application process is subject to the requirements of the individual schools. It is best to search the requirements particular to the department and course you want to study.
For example, your undergrad degree might be acceptable as the educational qualification needed by some German institutes. Whereas there are institutes that may require you to go through a selection examination in way of a written exam. Some may even need a GRE/GMAT etc.
There are two main varieties of Masters programs, International Programs mainly imparted in English, and the rest in German. The details are given here.
In case of English language programs, the Universities may need you to submit a proof of knowledge through the usual TOEFL or IELTS exams. The cut off scores are generally greater than 550 for Paper Based TOEFL, 213 for Computer Based TOEFL, 79 for Internet Based TOEFL, and 6.0 for IELTS.
For German programs, some of them may need you to qualify TestDaF (German as a Foreign Language Test) or DSH (German Language Test for the Admission of Foreign study applicants).
Universities work on a semester system. The Winter semester from October to March needs completed applications sent between March and June, while the Summer semester from April till September needs it done between September and December.
The details of what needs to be sent depends on the program and while a lot of Universities accept direct applications, some are enrolled with UNI-ASSIST which screens and forwards applications to the respective Universities. It is better to know who they are before sending in everything directly and have your application be frowned upon.
Cost of studying in Germany (in Indian Rupees and Euros)
Germany is extremely pocket friendly. Most of the costs are covered by the state so you may end up paying only a few hundred Euros (up to INR 25,000) in semester fees.
The rest of the costs involve renting and food which may make the expense of living in Germany a bit steep for Indians. With rents costing about 700 Euros (~ INR 50,000) per month and the rest about 200 Euros (~ INR 14,000), it may become necessary for students to look into scholarship and funding.
The stipendiumplus.de website provides information of funding opportunities from various organizations supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) which provides over 240 million Euros in scholarship money to young talents in research.
Other funding sources include The Deutschlandstipendium which provides financial and other support to students from all over the world. The scholarships are funded by private contributors, matched further by the Federal Government making for a financial support of 300 Euros (~ INR 22,000) per month.
Besides DAAD Scholarship programs, other contributors like public or religious institutions also provide scholarships, listed in studentwerk-berlin.de.
Also available are the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees (EMJMDs) offered as part of the cooperation between EU and non-EU academic collaborations.
In other words, there is no dearth of options available to interested and qualified students from anywhere in the world. Finances shouldn't be a concern stopping you from exploring Germany as your Masters destination.
Finally, Germany is well known for its inventions, its culture of hard work, industry and above all, its research. With a Masters from the Deustchland, you can expect to be trained not just by some of the best but also trained as the best.
Keeping the gains of quality in mind, it is not a surprising fact that the number of Indian students has quickly risen from virtually insignificant, even as recent as 2011/12, to 12,000 that were seen to make a move to Germany in 2014/15. So explore your options and take on the opportunity to enhance your knowledge and thus your career.

upasana says:
I m planning to do mba in germany so i want to know that is there any age limit for this????
And other thing is that i had done BCA i scorred 66.33% so can i able to pay for mba??
@Amitav: The quality of education is quite good in the programs you've mentioned. And there are some really good companies to work for in Germany. The challenge would be to compete with the locals when you aren't familiar with the language and culture.
@Upasana: There is no age limite per se, but do check out the average experience the programs. It helps to be within that range if you don't want to stand out (for the wrong reasons).
@Ravi: It'll be too early. You can take the GRE in the final year.
@Ganesh: Since you do not have a degree in computer science, you may have a tougher time convincing the admissions officer why you want to pursue a masters in CS. Use your statement of purpose judiciously.
@Susanta: US might be a better option. The GRE score is low for most of the top colleges.

Woo hoo! I was getting off the farm. The hubby was taking me to an Amish store in St. Ignatious that we had heard of so I could explore and pick up what I needed to cook Thanksgiving dinner. This will be only the second turkey I've ever cooked in my life which I find very amusing given all of the dinner parties and family meals I have prepared. I always seemed to have had charge of Christmas and Easter. I'm getting a 10lb Hutterite turkey so it will be just right for the two of us and I'll have the carcass to make make stock. Turkey stock is so very rich – I really like it better than chicken stock.
But back to my trip off the farm. It was a grey, cold, miserable day. It's November. It's Montana. It's to be expected. So I dressed accordingly. I must admit the one thing I love about winter is fleece. Fleece is my friend. It's soft. It's warm. So I donned my new fleece pullover from Land's End. I was able to purchase it on sale with a gift certificate. I love the berry color.
The vest is a piece I've had for a long time. I bought it in a small boutique back in New Jersey that I don't think exists any longer. It's felted wool over shearling and while it's a little big on me I won't give it up because it's so warm. The jeans are my basic GAP boot cut jeans. They are really the only pair I have right now that fit but I've ordered a new pair. Yay!
I broke out the winter boots for this trip. I'm very pleased to have been able to find a new pair of BearPaw Tama Boots. I had gotten a pair to review but the cats fell in love with the little rabbit fur embellishments. They chewed the fur right off of them! I found another pair and bought them with a gift certificate. I've learned my lesson and now store them in the box. Crazy cats! These are so comfortable and warm.
You might also notice a slight change to my hair – did you note the curl? I'll be reviewing a fun hair appliance later in the week. I only used it for a few minutes and it added some curl and body to my thin hair.
I was surprised and impressed. My hair has never been one to hold a curl. I didn't have any product in it to help it along and yet the curl stayed all day long. The wind was blowing so this might not be the best showcase but you can see some of the effects.
All in all I had a very nice day with my husband. I'll let you know tomorrow all about where we went and the fun stuff I bought for future baking. The firemen are going to have some yummy treats in the near future!

The Choice Is Obvious: Support Public Schools
Jan 22, 2019 by Liz Hayes
You'll hear a lot this week about private school vouchers during National School Choice Week, but what you won't hear a lot about is how vouchers don't work, how vouchers undermine public education and religious freedom, and how vouchers don't help children, families, public schools or you – the taxpayer.
The public is growing wise to the problems with private school vouchers. Arizona voters in November overwhelmingly rejected voucher expansion. A year ago, residents of a Colorado county voted in a new, pro-public education school board that ended a voucher program and years of litigation. AU and a coalition of organizations supporting public education and military families successfully lobbied against congressional attempts to divert federal money to an unwanted voucher program for military children last year.
Yet pro-voucher forces continue efforts to funnel public funds away from the public schools that educate 90 percent of American schoolchildren. The only federally funded voucher program, in Washington, D.C., will come up for renewal after this year and some members of Congress will try to extend its funding, despite studies that show the program doesn't work and objections from the D.C. community. President Donald Trump and Education Secretary Betsy DeVos continue to include voucher funding as a department priority. And several state legislatures have proposed new bills to create or expand voucher programs.
That's why Americans United, the National Coalition for Public Education (NCPE, which AU co-chairs) and a large coalition of education advocates use this week to expose the problems with private school voucher programs:
Vouchers don't help children: Repeated studies have shown that vouchers don't improve students' academic achievement, and in some cases may worsen their performance. Additionally, private schools accepting taxpayer-funded vouchers don't offer students the same civil rights protections required of public schools, they don't have to provide services to students with disabilities and they can discriminate against LGBTQ students and families.
Vouchers don't help families: Voucher programs provide "choice" for private schools, not for families. Private schools can pick and choose which students they serve and which students to turn away; public schools accept everyone. Vouchers usually don't cover the entire cost of private school tuition, making a private education unaffordable for many families even with a voucher.
Vouchers don't help public schools: Whether they're called vouchers, tuition tax credits or education savings accounts, these programs are funded with your tax dollars – money that could otherwise support our public schools. That means while your local public schools still will be educating the vast majority of neighborhood children, the schools will have less money for innovative teachers, curriculum development, adequate materials, new technology and all the other necessities to prepare children for the future.
Vouchers don't help you: You, the taxpayer, should not be forced to pay for two schools systems – one public and one private. All Americans have the right to decide what religions, if any, they will support. No one should be compelled to fund religious instruction; that's a clear violation of religious freedom.
You learn more about the problems with vouchers through NCPE and through this video produced by Americans United:
Don't believe the hype you hear this week. Vouchers aren't a good choice for children, families, public schools or taxpayers. Let's keep public money where it belongs – in public schools.

Can the Copyright Office Regulate?
By Terry Hart, November 04, 2010.
In my previous post about the Copyright Principles Project, I highlighted those proposals that recommend a greater role for the US Copyright Office. Whether or not the Copyright Office should take on a greater role is a subject that undoubtedly can generate plenty of discussion. But today, I want to look at a different issue:
Can the Copyright Office take on a greater role?
Certainly, Congress could easily add new positions to the Copyright Office to bolster its expertise, or the Office can be more active in its advisory role; I'm not talking about that. The question I'm asking relates to those recommendations that contemplate the Office exercising substantive agency powers — creating regulations (rulemaking) and resolving disputes in a quasi-judicial manner (adjudication). And the question is not whether taking on these powers is practical or worthwhile, but whether taking on these powers is constitutional. 1This article is largely adapted from a section I wrote in Copyright Reform Step Zero.
It's kind of an odd question; after all, the Office currently does exercise rulemaking powers — creating exceptions to the prohibition against circumventing DRM and technological protections 2Technically, it is the Library of Congress which creates these regulations, after consulting with the Copyright Office, but for this article, I will be referring to the rulemaking authority of the Copyright Office regardless of which department ultimately promulgates the regulations. — and its sister department within the Library of Congress, the Copyright Royalty Board, exercises adjudicatory powers — determining certain compulsory license rates in a court-like setting. But unlike administrative agencies that were specifically created to exercise these types of powers, the Copyright Office began as a "paper-pushing" department and only over time "grew into" a more robust agency.
This unusual path from ministerial department to something approaching a full-fledged administrative agency has given rise to lingering concerns about the consitutionality of the Copyright Office's authority to engage in rulemaking and adjudication. To understand these concerns, let's first take a quick look at how federal agencies in general can exercise these powers in a constitutional manner and then trace the growth of the Copyright Office's authority since its humble beginnings.
Agencies and Separation of Powers
Today, much of federal law is executed through administrative agencies. Congress passes a law, and then agencies — the EPA, the FCC, the IRS, etc. — create regulations to fill in the details of the law. Agencies might also engage in adjudication, resolving disputes or adjusting regulatory benchmarks within their purview through judicial-esque proceedings. The basic idea behind this system is that agencies have greater expertise and flexibility than Congress to address these details.
In one sense, administrative agencies act like mini-versions of a three-branch government: combining legislative (creating regulations), judicial (adjudication), and executive (enforcing regulations) functions. The Constitution, however, establishes a federal government based on separation of powers. Since the New Deal, Congress and Presidents have increasingly relied on administrative agencies to carry out many government functions, so the courts have had to figure out ways to fit this "fourth branch" of government within the constitutional framework while maintaining checks and balances.
The Constitution prohibits Congress from delegating legislative power to another body. But since 1825, courts have recognized a distinction between general, "important" legislative provisions and mere details. 3Wayman v. Southard (1825): "The line has not been exactly drawn which separates those important subjects, which must be entirely regulated by the legislature itself, from those of less interest, in which a general provision may be made, and power given to those who are to act under such general provisions to fill up the details." Today, agencies can create regulations to "fill up the details" when "Congress clearly delineates the general policy, the public agency which is to apply it, and the boundaries of this delegated authority." 4Mistretta v. US, 488 US 361 (1989).
A second requirement to maintain constitutionally sufficient delegation is that the authority must go to an independent or executive branch agency; Congress cannot delegate quasi-legislative authority to a legislative agency. 5Buckley v. Valeo, 424 U.S. 1, 138-41 (1976). True legislation requires passage by both houses of Congress (bicameralism) and the President's signature (presentment). 6INS v. Chadha, 462 U.S. 919, 946 (1983). If Congress retains any sort of control over the agency it delegates quasi-legislative authority to, courts view the delegation as a constitutionally improper circumvention of those two requirements. By control, I don't mean mere influence. The control must be meaningful, like the ability to appoint or remove agency officers 7Bowsher v. Synar, 478 U.S. 714, 726 (1986). or the power to veto agency decisions. 8INS v. Chadha at 954-59.
Growing into a Regulatory Agency
Many of the federal agencies today began during the New Deal, and were expressly authorized by Congress to regulate specific areas of the law. The Copyright Office, however, began a few decades earlier, without any substantive regulatory purpose as the goal. Under the first Copyright Act of 1790, copyright registrations were handled by district courts. This continued until 1870, when copyright administration was centralized in the Library of Congress. Congress created the Copyright Office in 1897 as a department within the Library dedicated to copyright administration. For most of the Copyright Office's history, its duties were limited to processing registrations and other "ministerial" tasks.
The Copyright Office has had the authority to issue regulations since its creation, but it has historically exercised that authority in a limited manner — rules governing interest on late payments to the Office, for example. 9MPAA v. Oman, 969 F.2d 1154, 1156 (DC Circ 1992). The triennial DRM exception rulemaking procedures set out in the DMCA in 1998 — 101 years after the Office was established — represents the first time the Copyright Office took on substantive rulemaking authority.
Perhaps because of the Copyright Office's limited exercise of regulatory authority, little attention has been paid to whether that authority is constitutional. The notable exception is E. Fulton Brylawski's 1976 article The Copyright Office: A Constitutional Confrontation, 1044 George Washington Law Review 12. written during the build up to the passage of the Copyright Act of 1976. Brylawski argued that the Copyright Office was a legislative agency and the Act would give the Copyright Office rulemaking authority that exceeds what the Constitution allows. As discussed earlier, Brylawski is right on the latter point: a legislative agency can't make regulations. But is he right on his first point? Is the Copyright Office indeed a legislative agency?
Legislative or Executive?
At first glance, it might be difficult to see how anyone could say the Copyright Office is not a legislative agency. The Copyright Office is a department within the Library of Congress. The Library of Congress is, well, of Congress. Not surprisingly, then, the US government places the Library of Congress in the legislative branch. 11United States Government Manual, 2009-2010 p. v. Courts, too, have characterized the Library of Congress as legislative. 12See Harry Fox Agency v. Mills Music, 720 F.2d 733 (2d Cir. 1983) ("The Library of Congress … is a part of the legislative branch itself"); Barger v. Mumford, 265 F.2d 380, 382 (DC Cir. 1959) ("Library of Congress has long been treated as being in or under the jurisdiction of the legislative branch of the Government"). The Copyright Office's own website states that it is "part of the legislative branch of government." And if you look through the US Code, you'll find repeated references to the Library of Congress being in the legislative branch 13Check out 5 USC § 5531(4), for example. — the Library itself is codified under Title 2, which governs the legislative branch.
Noted copyright expert William Patry considers the above conclusive evidence that the Library of Congress, and by extension the Copyright Office, is a legislative agency. Other scholars have found the need to address the characterization of the Copyright Office when discussing proposals to increase rulemaking or adjudicatory authority. Michael Carroll notes lingering concerns about this subject in Fixing Fair Use. 14Pp. 1131-32. I noted previously that the proposal he makes inspired one of the possibilities for advancing recommendation #4 in the Copyright Principles Project. Edward Lee cites the fact that the Copyright Office is a legislative agency as one of the reasons why it cannot be relied upon to fill in gaps in the law through rulemaking. 15Warming up to User-Generated Content, 2008 University of Illinois Law Review 1459, 1475 (2008).
So … case closed, right? Not quite. When it comes to separation of powers, labels are irrelevant. After all, if the Library of Congress was renamed the National Library, it would be silly to think the constitutional analysis would change. What matters is what branch of government the Copyright Office is an agency of, and agency is determined by control.
Let's take a look at the two most popular indicators of control: appointment (and removal) power and veto authority over regulations. The legislature has neither when it comes to the Copyright Office. The Register of Copyrights is appointed by (and can be removed by) the Librarian of Congress, who in turn is appointed by the President. Congress does not retain any power to approve or veto Copyright Office rules. Brylawski's assertion that the Library of Congress is under the control of the Joint Committee of Congress on the Library? — simply not true. 1629 Cong. Rec. 1947 (1896) (Rep. Dockery).
Most strikingly, Congress debated at some length about what branch of government held sway over the Library of Congress when the Copyright Office was being created and if the Office would constitutionally have authority to issue regulations. The final bill gave the Copyright Office rulemaking authority, reflecting the fact that Congress was satisfied that the setup they settled on was constitutionally sound. 17For a comprehensive list of citations to those debates, check out 1 William Patry, Patry on Copyright § 1:41 n.4, especially , e.g., 29 Cong. Rec. 318-19 (1896) (Rep. Dockery): "This Library of Congress is a department of the Government. It is an executive department and should be under the control of the executive branch".
Settle it in the Courts
Brylawski got an opportunity to take his arguments to the courts. In 1978, he was the attorney for the plaintiff in Eltra v. Ringer, one of the few times the constitutionality of the Register of Copyright's rulemaking authority was raised. The Fourth Circuit rejected the "label" argument, stating:
It is irrelevant that the Office of the Librarian of Congress is codified under the legislative branch or that it receives its appropriation as a part of the legislative appropriation. The Librarian performs certain functions which may be regarded as legislative (i. e., Congressional Research Service) and other functions (such as the Copyright Office) which are executive or administrative. Because of its hybrid character, it could have been grouped code-wise under either the legislative or executive department. But such code-grouping cannot determine whether a given function is executive or legislative.
The court noted that other courts, including the Supreme Court, had given weight to Copyright Office regulations for decades. "It seems incredible," said the court, "that, if there were a constitutional infirmity" for that long, no one ever noticed it. In the end, the court concluded that the Copyright Office was an executive office, operating under an officer appointed by the President, not Congress.
The characterization of the Copyright Office as an executive office was reaffirmed in a March 2010 DC Circuit memorandum order. In Live365 v. Copyright Royalty Board, Live365 challenged the constitutionality of the appointment of Copyright Royalty Board Judges.
Wait, what? What does the appointment of Copyright Royalty Board Judges have to do with the rulemaking authority of the Copyright Office?
As it turns out, quite a bit. The question in Live365 boils down to: "is the Library of Congress an executive or legislative agency": the same question involved in determining whether the Copyright Office has rulemaking authority.
The DC Circuit rejected the argument that the Library of Congress is a legislative agency. The President, not Congress, appoints the head of the department, so it is an executive agency. 18For a detailed look at this and the other issues raised in Live365 v. CRB, check out Department of the Inferiors? posted at CommLawBlog.
That, along with the fact that Congress doesn't retain any veto authority over the Library's (and Copyright Office's) regulations, leads to the conclusion that the Copyright Office does have authority to issue substantive regulations. So yes, the Copyright Office can take on a greater role in the administration of copyright law. The Copyright Principles Project and other proposals have advanced various recommendations embracing a greater role for the Office, whether through Congress delegating additional regulatory arenas or through the creation of new adjudicatory bodies. The question remains whether the Office should be given a greater role. Given the benefits an agency may provide — flexibility and expertise — I think this question merits further exploration.

With added "authority" comes added "complexity" and "bureaucracy", additions calculated to fundamentally change forever the structure and role of the Copyright Office…a change that I daresay would not be for the good of either the copyright system or copyright law.
The Copyright Office has to date served one very useful function, basic administration under Title 17, and one incredibly important function, the perception, reputation and role of serving as an honest broker. It has achieved the latter precisely because it has not been the maker of rules.
Obviously, I question the wisdom of advocating such a cardinal change.

Open Your Eyes to Smoke - Nunchukka Superfly (Citadel Records)
It's their fifth studio album and it's tempting to say the lines have become blurred between Nunchukka Superfly and the Hard-Ons, from which two of its three members are drawn. That'd be convenient but also wrong.
Hard-Ons record seem to run to being either pop-punkers or hardcore rockers with one style dominating over the other. "Open Your Eyes To Smoke" has its share of rockers that let pop creep in around the edges, but it is very much a Nunchukka Superfly record and their most accessible to date.
It's a re-tooled band with founders Blackie and Ray taking in a prodigy drummer, Julien Crendal, after Joel Ellis was deep-sixed for declining to refer to himself as anything but in the third person. Beats a bizarre gardening accident and the record benefits from the extra swing Crendal brings.
You can cast around for ways to describe Nunchukka Superfly's music but Blackie (guitar and vocals) nailed it best when he likened it to punks just starting out and trying to play prog rock. Throw in a liberal slice of psychedelia and you've got it covered.
Like an image of Justin Bieber meeting an untimely end at the hands of a defiled young fan's father armed with a baseball bat, "Open Your Eyes To Smoke" is best absorbed in one sweet hit, letting the cries for mercy and other sounds wash all over you. The stylistic U-turns and sudden time changes are toned down on "Open Your Eyes…" but the intensity remains intact.
Most of these songs lock into irresistible grooves and creep around like stalkers, breaking their restraining orders to the sound of furious guitars. No idea if it's the case but I'd speculate most were built from the ground up, with the rhythm section laying down a feel and the melody lines and guitar parts being slapped over the top. Regardless of what came first, the engine room is the key to "Open Your Eyes…" but the record is very much a sum of its parts.
Blackie doesn't get mentioned in the same breath as all the usual Aussie guitar suspects but does a wonderful job on this. Whether it's the lyrical outré of "Whimper Through Your Keyhole" or the peeling lines on the PiL-like "Prince Planet" and "Feel Me Through My Pants" (shades of "Careering"), he's giving us a master class of where to play and where to leave the gaps. Oh, and a lesson in split personality vocals.
It's hard to play favourites but the jagged "Synapses" (with its killer drum-work) and nagging riff of "Here Comers Hot Dog Pants" have to come close. The proggy "Basically Means Putting Yourself In Someone Else's Shoes" is another contender that explores the sort of territory Nunchukka Superfly haven't ventured into since their debut record.
Their shows in Australia might be criminally under-attended but "Open Your Eyes To Smoke" should encourage old heads to have another listen, and of course open the band to new sets of ears.
