A reaction control system (RCS) is a collection of components aboard a vehicle which uses reaction thrusters to produce translational or rotational velocity changes. In other words, to spin or push the vehicle around. Although in some cases the RCS thrusters use rocket motors - the Apollo spacecraft, and the Space Shuttle, for example - in others, they might consist of cold-gas thrusters which simply vent pressurized gases to produce the required impulse. Operations that don't involve combustion, although not nearly as energy efficient, make the construction and operation of the thruster easier and safer! Combustion systems, in order to minimize complexity, will typically utilize hypergolic fuels. The concomitant typical toxicity and corrosive nature of these fuels, as well as issues managing them, are usually offset by not needing to provide systems for their ignition for each impulse.
Vehicle attitude control, for longer flight times, is generally done with some form of system that does not require consumable fuel, such as reaction control wheels or control moment gyroscopes. The RCS is generally still useful, as not only can it be used if those systems fail, but torque management systems can reach saturation, requiring an RCS burn to provide a balancing force against which they can 'dump' their stored momentum. This procedure (balancing the internal attitude control system impulse against RCS impulses or other systems such as magnetorquers) is called a momentum dump.
RCS can be found aboard both manned and unmanned spacecraft. They can also be found on very high speed systems that operate within the atmosphere, where more complex or less effective systems are not feasible. Some designs of antiballistic missiles (ABMs) use small consumable reaction control thrusters - much like shotgun shells - for their final few fractions of a second before intercept, when the actuation time required for any other form of control system is too long.

Black Friday: Walmart and Amazon Selling a 'Children's Book of Demons' for Kids and Families Who Want to Learn How to Summon the Devil
Friday, November 29, 2019 15:17
A Pew Research Center study finding last year that there are now more pagans than Presbyterians in America
Satanism is not only on the rise in America, it has actually attained a position of prominence. Everywhere you look, things connected to the occult, satanism, devil worship and demonology are on display, even this book for kids called "A Children's Book Of Demons" teaching you how to invite the Devil into your home.
"Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not." John 8:44,45 (KJV)
The LGBTQ+P for Pedophile Movement, also called the Pride Movement, is led by a king called Leviathan who is "king over the children of pride". In a relatively short period of time, in the days after the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church, the Devil will come on the scene as Antichrist. And because we are now so close to seeing those prophecies fulfilled, we are watching an unsaved world preparing to receive him. Will "A Children's Book Of Demons" being in your house this Christmas?
At the bottom of this article is a video of Paul Harvey's "If I Were The Devil", I highly advise you to listen to it. Paul Harvey made the audio way back in 1965, and he very accurately described the coming days of spiritual darkness that we now live in.
"A Children's Book of Demons" Teaches Kids How to Summon Dark Spirits
FROM THE NEW AMERICAN: A new book billed as a "playful guide" teaches children how to summon demons for personal benefit. It's carried by major booksellers, too, such as Barnes & Noble, Walmart, and Target. Amazon sells it as well, even though the lit leviathan has banned a work critical of Islam and one geared toward the elimination of unwanted same-sex attraction.
Barnes & Noble's poorly punctuated overview of A Children's Book of Demons states:
Don't want to take out the trash tonight? Maybe you're swimming in homework? Perhaps that big bully is being a real drag? Well grab your coloured pencils and sigil drawing skills and dial up some demons! But be careful, even if these spirits are more silly than scary they are still demons.
So if you're looking to introduce your kids to "Devil worship," as Breaking Israel News puts it, know that the book's "publishers try to turn the act of summoning demons into a kid-friendly activity saying: 'summoning demons has never been so much fun,'" the site relates, quoting the sellers' "about" section.
Then there's Publishers Weekly's description, which states that author Aaron Leighton
integrates a hands-on craft element into this playful guide that invites readers to conjure gentle demons by writing their sigils, which serve as "a phone number" straight to the spirit. The demons necessitate specific summons (a riddler named Corydon requires a sigil "drawn in bright red, the colour of a clown's nose — preferably while you're giggling"), and express specific characteristics and abilities that range from pragmatic to gross. They include "Flatulus," whose talent is passing gas; "Quazitoro," an expert at finding missing objects; and "Spanglox," "the best-dressed demon in the underworld," who offers cutting-edge fashion advice. Leighton's renderings of the multi-eyed, multiarmed, sharp-toothed demons are outlandish without being creepy, and the creative concept will likely inspire some readers to create demons of their own. Ages 5-10.
Leighton is described in his bio as "an award-winning illustrator and art director, as well as a fan of all things occult" — and his works certainly reflect this dark passion.
Unfortunately, Leighton is far from alone in capitalizing on the post-Christian West's spiritual decay and taste for occult titillation. For instance, 2016 saw the premiere of television series Lucifer, which puts a positive spin on Satan and portrays God as a stern killjoy.
Then, with a Pew Research Center study finding last year that there are now more pagans than Presbyterians in America — with paganism catching on especially in colleges and among the young — it's no surprise that Wicca (witchcraft) is growing in popularity. This is epitomized, and encouraged, by entertainment such as the 1996 film The Craft and the more recent Charmed and American Horror Story: Coven.
These dark elements are also entering government/public spaces, with satanic invocations at government assembly meetings, "Pagan Pride Days" in many locales, satanic Christmas-season displays, a satanic monument in a veterans memorial park, and U.S. Naval Academy midshipmen now having a Satanic Temple room. Clearly, we're far removed from the days when George Washington stressed the importance of "the blessing of Heaven on our Arms."
Instead, exorcisms are now on the rise, and the faithful may say it's because we're taking Hell into our arms. And this concern was reflected in the Amazon reviews of the children's demon book. One incredulous reviewer, Marbel, warned parents that demons "are evil and they don't care about you or your children. They are liars, deceivers.… They follow Satan and want you and your children to do that same," WND.com relates. For sure, it's all fun and games — until your head starts spinning around as you projectile vomit green slime.
Of course, talk of angels, dark or light, is scoffed at by today's "scientific" secular sophisticates (who, though disbelieving in God, tend to believe a boy can be like god and become a girl just by willing it). As for the 83 percent of Americans with faith in God, however, it should raise their eyebrows not at all. READ MORE
"If I Were The Devil" Paul Harvey
Prophetic words by Paul Harvey. The earliest translation of Paul Harvey's "If I was the devil" was around 1964. Many variations of "If I were the devil" exist online and the words contained in this video are more accurate to Paul Harvey's 1996 version.

Condolences to the Friends and Family of Those Recently Passed
Home / News / Member News / Condolences to the…
In this week's Weekly Update, we paid tribute to several people with connections to the Spencerville Church community who have passed during the last several weeks. Please remember the family and friends of those below in prayer, as well as other families who have recently lost loved ones.
Judy Anders Koch
Dan and Tammy Loukota shared this week that Tammy's mother, Judy Anders Koch, passed away. Judy was a Spencerville member for many years before moving to Florida about 20 years ago. Despite the distance, she maintained ties to this community through Dan and Tammy and her parents, Jack and Betty Jo Anders. We ask for prayer for Dan, Tammy, and their family as they mourn Judy's passing. (Photo: Dan Loukota/Facebook)
Charles Hill
We received word that Charles Hill, a longtime member of the Spencerville family, passed away at the age of 94. Charles and his wife June were living in an independent living facility in Fairfax, Virginia. Please keep June, Gary, and the rest of the Hill family in prayer as they remember Charles and await their reunion upon Jesus' return. More information will be shared as it is available. (Photo: June and Charles Hill, 2001 Spencerville Church Directory)
Antoune Youssef
Antoune Youssef passed away on December 26, 2021, after a battle with cancer. He was 69 years old. Antoune was not a member of Spencerville; however, before COVID, he had been a regular attender with his wife, Dolly (who is a member). Antoune shared close friendships with Phyllis McElmurry and Tim Lale and received regular calls and visits from Pastor Kandace as he battled an aggressive form of cancer. Pray for Antoune's family and friends, most of whom are in Egypt, as they mourn his loss. (Photo: 2017 Spencerville Church Directory)

GNTO expects 30 Million visitors in Greece in 2017
Published on : Wednesday, June 14, 2017
The Greek National Tourism Organization (GNTO) recently announced that it expects a record-breaking 30 million international visitors to Greece this year. This represents a growth rate of 7 percent, or an additional 2 million additional visitors over the previous year. According to the GNTO's New York branch, 900,000 American travelers are expected to visit Greece this year.
For the last two years, Greece's growth has been nearly twice the global industry average of 3.9 percent, as reported by the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) in January 2017.
The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) estimates that tourism in 2017 will help boost the Greek economy by 6.9 percent, and will boost employment by 6.3 percent, supporting nearly 1 million jobs and representing 20 percent of the country's GDP.
According to data, one in five jobs created in Greece is related to the tourism sector. "Tourism is essential to Greece's effort for recovery and prosperity. Every 30 or more tourists visiting Greece, creates one new job for a Greek," the GNTO said in an announcement.
"We are very optimistic about the upcoming tourist season and our continued momentum," says Greek Tourism Minister Elena Kountoura. "Greece's incomparable natural beauty, ancient history, vibrant urban culture and spirit of 'philotimo' make it one of the world's most unique and desired year-round destinations."
Taleb Rifai, UNWTO Secretary General, shared his full support of Greece and GNTO while visiting Athens earlier this year. "Greece is one of the most popular and attractive global destinations, which enhances its international appeal and continues to record high performance," said Rifai.
Greece: The must-go experience destination
The GNTO notes that Greece has always been known as a classic destination, but recently has been distinguished as the new, must-go experience destination for 2017.
New flights and connections will make traveling to Greece easier in 2017, including daily year-round service by Emirates to Athens from Newark Liberty International Airport. Destinations such as Kos, Rhodes, Mykonos, Santorini, Corfu, Kephalonia, Zakynthos, Aktio and Thessaloniki now have direct flights or connections to a larger number of European cities, as well as the U.S., China, India, Russia and Israel.
The GNTO's development strategy includes increasing access via air, land and sea; increased focus on audience segmentation including: luxury, religious, cruises, yachting, diving, cultural tourism, adventure, LGBT and new international markets; and the use of new technology platforms and social media.

It has been said that the duo will have prominent roles in the attraction, which is already being filmed.
fix will play Jules, the newly adopted daughter of a wealthy family. Described as a strong-willed teenager trying to find her place in the world, she is also a bit tough and reckless, but very smart.
gambling will play Jack, a soft-spoken ex-Army medic and single father who dedicates his life to raising his daughter, and his life takes a turn when he discovers that the woman he loves has an unimaginable secret.
The duo joins the protagonist Krysten Ritter ('Breaking Bad'), which will play Lucy, a girl with an enigmatic past who is also trying to find her place in the world. Like the original, the new series also explores the impacts of genetic modification.
The story of the derivative takes place after the events of the 'Orphan Black' original, and arrives for streaming in 2023, at AMC+. To date, other names of the cast have not yet been confirmed.
Remembering that 'Orphan Black: Echoes' has not yet been shown in Brazil.

Boils, or skin abscesses, are an an infection deep in the skin. There are several types of boils, which can occur on the face, under the armpits, in the groin area, and in the crease of the buttocks. Usually boils form due to clogged sweat glands or infected hair follicles, but tears or breaks in the skin can become infected and cause boils as well. A depressed immune system can also cause boils as the skin is a way for toxins to be eliminated from the body. Numerous natural cures for boils exist, including the use of lemon. Lemon's antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties may make it an effective treatment for boils.
Measure 2 cups of water and pour into a pot. Bring water to a boil.
Measure 2 tbsp. of lemon juice and add it to the boiling water.
Soak a cotton ball in the mixture. Clean and disinfect the boils with the cotton ball. The boils should go down considerably if not disappear altogether.
Other effective natural boil treatments include the use of tea tree oil, honey, castor oil and Epsom salts. Apply tea tree oil directly on boils after bathing. Warm honey or castor oil applied to boils and covered with a gauze bandage may also help. Soaking in Epsom salts may help the body rid itself of boils---Epsom salts draw out impurities through the skin. However, do not stay in the bath longer than 15 or 20 minutes, as Epsom salts can be dehydrating.
Seek medical attention if your boils worsen, have not gone down after two weeks, or keep coming back. Red lines forming around the boils may mean the infection has gotten into the bloodstream. Do not attempt to pop or lance boils.

Lionel Messi breaks silence on what happened behind the scene leading to his Barcelona departure
By Godsway Charles Tudi On Aug 8, 2021
Former Barcelona captain Lionel Messi has spoken for the first time after his shocking departure from his Barcelona.
Barcelona sent shockwaves all over the world when they confirmed that their star man Lionel Messi will not be able to extend his contract at the club again. You are still in Showbiz ain't you?
Messi spent almost all his playing career as a Barcelona player but just like other footballers, you have to move on if the current situation didn't favor both parties.
With speculations and rumors about the reason the six time Ballon D'or winner is ending one of the most admired club stories, the player himself has narrated what actually happened behind the scene before Barcelona's announcement.
During a press conference meant to say goodbye to a long standing Barce career, Messi revealed he has no problem with the club as it has always been his desire to continue playing for them.
He stated emphatically that he had an agreement with the Spanish giants over a new contract and was convinced he will stay only to be told La Liga rules won't make it possible.
"There was no problem with Barcelona, really. I was ok with the club on every detail. We had an agreement on everything, I was convinced to stay at Barçe but it was not possible because of Liga rules".
"My new contract was Done. All done. I wanted to stay and when I come back from holidays, it was done then it's how Laporta explained it. At the last minute, with everything with La Liga, it couldn't happen". The player said

joan Share Fierce Track "so done"
Rising indie-pop duo joan shared their latest single. "so done" arrives as the sixth installment from their wave era, and third off their bye EP.
Welcome to joan's wave Era
Joan have been working hard this year on new music. The duo entered their wave era at the beginning of the year with "come over," which arrived as the first single off their hi EP. The other EP they are working on, bye, features songs about letting an ex go, which is where "so done" plays a part.
"so done" is about realizing that the person you've been in love with is actually not that good for you, so you decide to call it quits. "I called to tell you that it's over. No more crying on my shoulder. You think that everything's about you. So I'm leaving. Don't evеn bother calling me back. I'll leavе your stuff out on the doorstep. I'm sure you'll move on by the weekend. We're so-so done, so done, so done," they sing in the chorus.
The Duo Wrote "so done" in Only 20 Minutes!
Talking about the songwriting process for "so done" with Us Weekly, joan revealed that they wrote the song in only 20 minutes! "Growing up we always heard artists say things like, 'We wrote this song in 20 minutes,' and always thought it was a bit dramatic because it just doesn't really happen like that. But listen, we wrote basically wrote this song in 20 minutes. We sat down in the studio and Alan started humming, 'Called to tell you that it's over.' From there, it seemed like every line wrote itself one after another. It was a really cool experience."
The pair also revealed that they plan on releasing a new single every month until the end of the year. "After we released cloudy/partly cloudy, we got straight to work, writing so many new songs," the longtime friends said in a press release. "We found that the songs were naturally falling in two different camps. So, we decided rather than trying to force them to work together, it would be more interesting to release two EPs over the course of the year. Welcome to the wave era: Here comes a new joan song each month through the end of the year." They also described how "so done" is actually the counterpart of "so good."
Are you excited about getting to hear more music from joan soon? We are for sure!

For his contributions to human and machine communications and for his role in the development of the ARPANET and the X.25 protocol
Lawrence G. Roberts is best known for his work on the development of the ARPANET, a key predecessor to the internet and the first major network built on the principle of packet switching, and later as a pioneer of commercial packet switching with his roles in Telenet and the widely deployed X.25 protocol. He was hired as program manager and technical architect for the ARPANET in 1966, and later became director of the main computing office at ARPA, where he oversaw the network's initial deployment and funded the development of other experimental packet networks. He had previously done ARPA-funded research in computer-to-computer networking at Lincoln Laboratories. Roberts became a champion of packet switching, which sends data as tiny separate packets instead of the traditional telephone model using dedicated circuits; for connecting computers packets can move data far more efficiently.
Roberts left ARPA in 1973 to explore the commercial possibilities of packet-switched networks as founding president of Telenet Inc., which operated its own commercial network and manufactured switching equipment. During that period, he was a major figure in the design and international standardization of the X.25 protocol, which was widely adopted by PTTs worldwide and became the basis of many of the first large-scale packet-switched data services. X.25 remained a major standard until the commercialization of the internet in the early 1990s. Since Telenet was bought by GTE in 1979, Roberts has been founder and CEO of five network equipment startups: NetExpress, ATM Systems, Caspian Networks, Anagran, and FSA Technologies. He holds a doctorate in electrical engineering from MIT; his thesis advisor was information theory pioneer Claude Shannon.
Roberts has received numerous awards for his work, including the Secretary of Defense Meritorious Service Medal; the Harry Goode Memorial Award from AFIP; the IEEE Computer Pioneer Award; the Interface Conference Award; the Nobel equivalent L. M. Ericsson Prize; the IEEE W. Wallace McDowell Award; the ACM SIGCOMM Award; the IEEE Internet Award; the National Academy of Engineering Draper Award; Spain's highest award, the Principe de Asturias Award; and the NEC Computer and Communication Award. He was inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame in 2012.


I'd like to see Cooney run as Lt. Governor again. He'd give a lot of guidance to a younger governor, like Casey Schreiner or John Heenan or even Kathleen Williams, though I agree with you that Williams probably can't win a general. I don't think Mike Cooney can win the general election either.
One of the big reasons that Last Best News out of Billings gave for shutting down last year was that they were not getting enough likes on Facebook.
I have been racking my brain as to why passing Medication Expansion is any different than giving carte blanche to an out of state corporation to run Colstrip on the back of the tax payers for the next 40 years when we know it's going down in flames anyways.
Just proves it's all politically motivated and these people don't give a crap about us working folks. You're totally right.
What is so wrong with having work reqiurements if you get free healthcare from the government? Maybe if you liberals did not argue that everything should be free you would have a better chance of winning elected races in Motana and the rest of the country.
But, you have no issue handing over Colstrip to an out of state corporation who is going to be able to have 0 oversight and the option of passing $40 million on to rate payers?
You don't have a problem with the bill creating 84 new white collar, state positions in Helena?

Minor revolutions
Three Identical Strangers is a documentary about triplets separated at birth by a Jewish-affiliated adoption agency in 1961. Photo: Neon.
The Bible: Wisdom Literature
Jewish Family Education with Candace R. Kwiatek, The Dayton Jewish Observer
In the recently released documentary, Three Identical Strangers, triplets separated and adopted by different families just months after birth unexpectedly discover they are siblings at the age of 19.
Despite growing up in different parenting and socio-economic circumstances, the brothers at first appear to be clones, but as the story develops, it's obvious the homogeneity isn't so clear-cut.
The documentary takes on a more sinister note when it turns out the boys were part of a decades-long clandestine experiment involving the deliberate separation and calculated adoption placements of more than five dozen sets of identical siblings.
Under the guise of studying the effects of parenting styles, the experiment was looking to provide an unequivocal answer to the question of whether genetics or environment plays the larger role in human development.
While science hasn't yet given us a definitive answer to this age-old question, the Bible's message is more clear-cut.
Through story, proverb, and law, the Bible asserts that nature and nurture are subservient to the individual's free-will choices, which ultimately determine who the person becomes.
Contested even today, this idea was downright revolutionary in an ancient world where one's ancestry, fate, and the arbitrary will of the gods were far more determinative of a child's destiny than choice.
Candace R. Kwiatek
This isn't the only revolutionary biblical message about children.
"Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth,"God tells Adam and Eve, the first commandment in the Bible. Children are the builders of civilizations and futures in the physical sense as well as in the moral and cultural realms.
Thus it's only logical that children are an element of God's Covenant with Abraham to build an exemplary people: "I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the seashore, and in your seed shall the nations of the earth be blessed (Gen. 22:17-18)."
The most revolutionary acknowledgment of children's value, however, is found in the biblical genealogies.
"It would never have occurred to Sumerians to write (genealogies) down, because they accorded no importance to individual memories," notes author Thomas Cahill in The Gifts of the Jews. "For them only impersonal survival, like kingship, like the harvest, mattered; the individual…could have no meaning."
Biblical genealogies turn that notion upside down, highlighting the universal importance of children. They trace the descendants not just of the Israelite patriarch, but of humanity all the way back to Adam and Noah. Every child is a fountainhead of the future.
In the ancient world, "the eldest male in the family was the absolute ruler, with the power of life and death over every family member. He could exile, beat, sell, or even kill them with no legal ramifications," write educators Lin and Don Donn.
Furthermore, infanticide was common: unwanted children were tossed off cliffs, left outdoors to die of exposure, or abandoned in the marketplace to be claimed as slaves.
"It was regarded as the parents' right if they didn't want the child," world explorer and writer Jeffrey Hays explains.
Within the context of this ancient worldview, the purpose of the following biblical injunction becomes obvious: "If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not hearken to his voice, then his father and his mother bring him to the city elders in the marketplace and say, 'This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice…' And all the men of his city shall stone him and all Israel shall hear and fear. (Deut. 21:18-21)."
According to the rabbis of the Talmud, this law is hypothetical and was intended to be a deterrent only, inducing fear just by hearing it: the death penalty emphasizes the severity of the sin only.
But this revolutionary biblical law makes it clear that parents — father or mother, alone or together — do not have absolute, arbitrary control over the life and death of their child.
Instead, they must together turn to the court, which is impartial, deliberative, and constrained by legal and moral bounds. Children are not possessions like slaves or property — or lab rats.
The Bible has more than two dozen specific words that indicate young characters, from betulah (young woman) and ben (son) to yaldah (girl) and yonek (nursing baby). By highlighting dependency, vulnerability, growth and development, biblical vocabulary asserts that children are not adults.
This principle is all the more obvious in the Fifth Commandment, "Honor your father and your mother."
Author and clinical psychologist Wendy Mogel explains, "(God) recognized that children are not naturally inclined to treat their parents with respect, so he commanded it…Parents are to be authority figures…holy stand-ins."
In the ancient world, where gods were neither the source of morality nor role models to be emulated, this command to honor parents as quasi-divine representatives of an ethical-behavior-demanding divinity was revolutionary.
Equally radical today is the command's implication that parents should not treat children like peers, seeking love and friendship rather than obedience and respect. Children are uniquely children.
Science seeks to revolutionize our understanding of the natural and physical worlds of the child and how they affect human development. The Bible seeks to guide the moral and ethical worlds of the child and revolutionize the consequent building of civilizations. Both minor revolutions are still in progress.
Literature to share
Judging Noa: A Fight for Women's Rights in the Turmoil of the Exodus by Michal Strutin. This version of the biblical tale of Zelophehad's daughters, who challenged the rules of inheritance, is a highly engaging story of ancient Israel and its culture in transition. Written with a naturalist's eye for detail, the wilderness and cast of characters come to life. Reminiscent of The Red Tent, Judging Noa is historical fiction and modern midrash at its best.
Lone Wolf in Jerusalem by Ehud Diskin. Action-packed and gritty, Lone Wolf follows the idealistic David from Nazi-filled forests in Belarus to anti-immigration British in pre-state Israel. Filled with incredible exploits and suspense punctuated by flashbacks, David exhibits the bold determination, sense of mission, and courage that will define the new Israeli. Israel's pre-state years — with myriad challenges and confusing militant Jewish groups — come alive.
Three Identical Strangers (the movie). This crime documentary focuses on a decades-long study exploring the influences of nature and nurture on human development. Led by the Austrian-trained psychiatrist Peter Neubauer, the experiment used more than 60 sets of identical siblings (primarily twins) separated at birth and raised in homes secretly chosen for similarities in all but parenting styles. The movie raises disturbing questions, beginning with why a Jewish adoption agency was intimately involved in such experimentation.

Past and future paydays for American artists were at stake in a Pasadena courtroom Tuesday as a group of them tried to salvage a special privilege that only California confers: the right to pocket a 5% royalty whenever a California collector or gallery sells their work on the secondary market.
Lawsuits brought in 2011 by several prominent artists or their heirs aimed to force Sotheby's and Christie's, two leading international art auction houses, and EBay to collect the 5% royalty.
But a federal judge in Los Angeles dismissed the case in 2012, finding that the California Legislature exceeded its authority when it passed the Resale Royalty Act in 1976. The judge ruled that the royalty requirement improperly butts into matters of interstate commerce that California had no right to regulate.
Over time, some California sellers have abided by the law and others have not.
Payments are supposed to be made to any artist who is an American citizen or who is a California resident -- if his or her work is being sold by a California owner, regardless where in the United States the sale occurs. The royalty right extends 20 years after an artist's death.
The lawsuits brought by living artists Laddie John Dill and Chuck Close, and by heirs of Sam Francis and Robert Graham, sought to give the statute more bite while compensating them for missed payments from Sotheby's, Christie's and EBay.
The artists' attorney, Eric George, said that two other major auction houses, Bonhams & Butterfield's and Phillips de Pury and Co., comply with the law. But it also applies to private sales by Californians, obligating the seller to track down the artist and pay him or her the 5% cut on any sale over $1,000.
The hearing Tuesday was before an 11-judge panel of the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, which heard arguments from both sides -- and from Aimee Feinberg, a deputy solicitor for the state who was trying to defend the law as a proper exercise of the legislature's power.
The hourlong proceedings focused almost exclusively on legal doctrines concerning interstate commerce, copyright law and tax law. No artist's name was mentioned and almost nothing was said about art, except when Judge Harry Pregerson asked, "What is the purpose of this statute?"
"It's to benefit the arts, to make the state richer for artists," George replied.
Resale royalties are part of business as usual throughout the European Union and in some other international markets. But they have been opposed in the U.S. by art dealers and auctioneers.
Deanne Maynard, an attorney for Sotheby's who also carried the ball for Christie's and EBay at the hearing, contended that U.S. copyright law specifies that once an object is sold, the creator is not entitled to be paid for subsequent sales.
Periodic efforts to establish a nationwide resale royalty act akin to the one in Europe have stalled in Congress, most recently in 2011. But a new version was introduced early this year, calling for a 5% resale royalty on auction sales, with the royalty capped at $35,000.
In a recent article on the website of his New York City law firm Herrick, Feinstein, which has an art law practice, attorney Barry Werbin wrote that this time signs are more positive for federal legislation on the matter.
Werbin noted that the U.S. Copyright Office has recommended establishing an artist resale royalty nationwide. It would put visual artists on the same footing as composers, playwrights and authors, who must be paid every time a work is resold as a live performance, a recording or a book.
However, George, the artists' attorney in California, said he's skeptical about the national law's chances.
"I'd be shocked if it happened," he said, because it's easy for opponents to paint a new royalty privilege as "government overreach" that burdens private businesses.

Nearly 100 Members of the Military Honored
to Chamber News
On April 14, the Hampton Roads Chamber of Commerce hosted a Military Recognition Reception from 3-5pm at the Norfolk Waterside Marriott. This reception, held to honor the hardworking men and women of the military, recognized nearly 100 military personnel from local commands. The service members were joined at the reception by their families, military leadership, elected officials, and businessmen and women from the region.
The reception's guest speaker was Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy Jim Herdt, who retired from active duty in 2003, after more than 35 years of service in the U.S. Navy. He currently serves as CEO/CFO of Herdt Consulting, Inc. and as a managing director of Pinnacle Five, LLC.
Herdt explained to the crowd that currently his work with Pinnacle Five includes helping veterans find employment. He said the employers he speaks with are looking for individuals with attributes such as responsibility, innovation, dependability, sense of team, leadership, loyalty, and a strong work ethic. He praised the honorees and said, "Every veteran has a sense of these kinds of things. Small business owners would want these skills. That's what I talk to employers about." Herdt added, "If every employer had an appreciation for these skills, they wouldn't want to hire anyone else. You are among the most elite citizens in our nation." He praised the Hampton Roads community and told the honorees that this region "loves and values you."
The Chamber holds Military Recognition Receptions twice a year because they are such an important part of our region. The Chamber has been recognizing the accomplishments of the military at this reception for more than 15 years.
Many thanks to sponsors: Omni Financial (Presenting); City of Norfolk (Gold); Norfolk Waterside Marriott (Hospitality); GEICO (Gold Military Program Benefactor); Cox Communications (Media); City of Virginia Beach, USAA and USA Discounters (Silver); Virginia Beach Convention Center & Distinctive Gourmet and Norfolk State University (Bronze); Hampton Roads Military and Federal Facilities Alliance (Special Envoy Sponsor); Lockheed Martin (Silver Military Program Benefactor); G4S Secure Solutions USA, Regent University and Saint Leo University (Bronze Military Program Benefactors)

Priscilla walked through the halls with silent determination and a coy smile on her lips. From across the way she could see Carson heading in her direction. "Shouldn't you have retired by now?' She smirked.
"Would a lady ever tell something like that?" Priscilla asked with feigned innocence.
"Nice try. You may be able to fool him, but never me darling." Carson murmured his attention pulling from the girl to the nearby courtyard.
Priscilla noticed his lack of attention and looked to see what had grabbed it. "Isn't that Autumn?" Carson merely nodded at her question. "That's quite the display she's putting on." Priscilla noted.

UK home healthcare company Omnicare last week floated on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) in London, raising £4 million ($6 million). A total of 666,667 shares were sold at 60 pence each, representing 9.8% of the enlarged capital of the company. Omnicare supplies and maintains oxygen concentrators at patients' homes and its Medigas subsidiary fills oxygen cylinders which are then supplied to patients via pharmacies. The company had sales of £1.7 million in 1994, up 9% on the previous year, and net income of £371,000, up 13%.

Q: New Msbuild Sonar runner is skipping analysis for .net projects I have setup new Msbuild sonar runner and kickoff analysis for a project type "class library". It went successful.  To test it further,

*

*I have created one more project which has only one file with 5 Interface definitions.

*I made sure that names of interfaces NOT started with letter 'i'.

*I created a quality profile with one stylecop rule i.e. "Interface names must begin with i".

*I started cmd prompt (VS command prompt) and change it's path to the directory which has .csproj file.  Clearly I am NOT at .sln file level. precisely one more level down where we can see .csproj file.

*Fired Begin - msbuild -end sequence.

*It shows ANALYSIS SUCCESSFUL but when I don't see any issues on dashboard ( Issues  zero where as I expect  5, each one is for one interface).

*After careful observation of Log, It shows following message. I am not sure that I quite understand it.

WARNING: File is not under the project directory and cannot currently be analysed by SonarQube. File: C:\Users\raja.moparthi\AppData\Local\Temp.NETFramework,Version=v4.5.AssemblyAttributes.cs, project: D:\SonarQube-Test-Projects\Fibanocci\TestFib2\TestFib2.csproj

A: Thanks for providing all these valuable details in your questions, which makes it easier to answer.
First of all, you can safely ignore the message C:\Users\raja.moparthi\AppData\Local\Temp.NETFramework,Version=v4.5.AssemblyAttributes.cs : That file does not belong to your project, and does not have to be analyzed.
Then, I think that you are facing a limitation of the MSBuild SonarQube Runner 1.0 release, which is already fixed in the soon to be released 1.0.1 version: If the full path to your .csproj file contains test, the project will be detected as a test one, and SonarQube doesn't report issues on tests projects. See this tickets for details: https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SONARMSBRU-121 While waiting on this new release, the easiest thing you can do is simply to remove test from the folder names.

A: I still have the issue described by Dinesh using TFS' SonarQube Extension 2.0.0, which embeds SonarQube Scanner for MSBuild 2.2.0.24:

If the full path to your .csproj file contains test, the project will be detected as a test one, and SonarQube doesn't report issues on tests projects.

I've solved it by customizing the Test project pattern in Sonar Qube's Administration | Configuration | General Settings | Scanner for MSBuild.

Waste Wise
Waste Wise: Packing It In
Consider biodegradeable plastic packaging. It's been touted as a good thing: If the material cannot be or is not recycled or re-used then it has the added benefit of degrading naturally once composted or landfilled. It seems product manufacturers, in an effort to be more sustainable, have focused on making plastic containers and packaging as highly degradable as possible, presumably based on the assumption that the more quickly it breaks down the more environmentally friendly it is.
On the surface, this makes sense. The more quickly something breaks down, the more quickly it goes away. But there is a flaw in this logic that suggests a disconnect between the manufacturers and their understanding of what happens to the materials upon disposal.
If biodegradable materials are composted, speedy biodegradation is a good thing, yielding a faster conversion time from waste to soil amendment. The problem is only 8 percent of U.S. municipal solid waste is composted. Of that amount, the vast majority of composted materials are yard trimmings and food waste, not biodegradable packaging materials.
Given this, where do most of the packaging materials go? While most paper packaging is recycled, nearly 85 percent of plastic packaging and containers (including the biodegradable kind) wind up in a landfill (a small percentage goes to waste-to-energy facilities).
So if it goes to a landfill, biodegradability is a good thing, right? Not necessarily. Results from a lifecycle analysis by N.C. State University have found that landfilled biodegradable plastics may not be as good for the environment as originally thought. Recall that when biodegradable plastics degrade in a landfill, microbes breakdown the material, converting it to either carbon dioxide or methane, both of which are greenhouse gases. Yet methane is 25 times more potent as a greenhouse gas compared to carbon dioxide, which means that if the methane generated from a landfill is not captured and utilized, then the biodegradable materials can do more harm than good.
N.C. State researchers Mort Barlaz, Ph.D., and Ph.D. candidate Jim Levis (who is supported via a Francois Fiessinger scholarship from the Environmental Research and Education Foundation) found that because biodegradable plastics were designed to break down as fast as possible, those placed in a landfill degraded too quickly to be sufficiently captured and utilized. This means that although the intent of the manufacturers is noble, the facts surrounding how packaging waste is currently managed and where it goes means that biodegradable packaging can actually be more harmful for the environment. So do we retreat to non-biodegradable plastics? Not likely.
There are two possible solutions. On the disposal side, the N.C. State study suggests that landfill gas collection systems put in place earlier go a long way toward capturing the methane released from rapidly degrading materials such as biodegradable plastics. There are logitistical challenges in applying this to every situation.
A second and perhaps more plausible solution lies further up the supply chain. If the biodegradable materials were designed to degrade more slowly, say on the order of years versus months, then this would ensure that materials ending up in a landfill would generate methane that is sure to be captured and beneficially utilized. Given the amount of plastic that still ends up in a landfill, the larger point is that product manufacturers should take the time to really understand where their materials end up and how this truly impacts sustainability, while at the same time evaluating how policy and human behavior can be modified to shift the scenario to one where the higher recovery of these materials can be achieved.
"Is Biodegradability a Desirable Attribute for Discarded Solid Waste? Perspectives from a National Landfill Greenhouse Gas Inventory Model" by James Levis and Morton Barlaz has been published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology.

Q: Transfer Sharepoint WebPart data to application page I have created a visual web part that has one entry form, it contains 10 textboxes and a submit button  to insert the data.
Now on click of submit button it redirects to another page(page is application page deployed under layout folder of same site. this page is added in same web part solution by adding new item).
I'm able to redirect to application page using SPUtility.Redirect(). but not sure about best approach to pass the data from web part page to application.
I think that query string is not a good solution. Also enabling session is manual work on each environment(as i experienced that in one server when i created session variable i got an error to enable it, but in other dev server i was able to do that).

A: I have done this using a public class in user control .cs page and defined all fields as static variables in side the class. now I'm able to access them in application page added inside layout folder of same project solution. Not sure if it is right approach , but it works

DoS Agrees To MK 54 Sale to Brazil | Morocco To Receive Gulfstream G-550 | Philippines Postpone Purchase Of BrahMos
Dec 04, 2020 00:10 UTC
Lockheed Martin won a $48.7 million contract modification to exercise an option for AEGIS Combat System Engineering Agent efforts for the design, development, integration, test and delivery of Advanced Capability Build 20. The Aegis Combat System is the Navy's most modern surface combat system. It was designed as a complete system: the missile launching element, the computer programs, the radar and the displays are fully integrated to work together. This makes the Aegis system the first fully integrated combat system built to defend against advanced air and surface threats. The Aegis combat system uses powerful computers and radar to track and guide weapons to destroy enemy targets. Aegis, not an acronym, refers to the shield of the mythical Greek God Zeus. Work will take place in Moorestown, New Jersey, and is expected to be finished by December 2021. Estimated completion will be by December 2021.
The State Department approved a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Brazil of MK 54 Lightweight Torpedoes and related equipment for an estimated cost of $70 million. The Government of Brazil has requested to buy twenty-two (22) MK 54 conversion kits – to convert MK 46 Mod 5 A(S) torpedoes to MK 54 Mod 0 lightweight torpedoes. Also included are torpedo containers, Recoverable Exercise Torpedoes (REXTORP) with containers, Fleet Exercise Section (FES) and fuel tanks, air-launch accessories for rotary-wing, torpedo spare parts, propellant, lanyard start assembly suspensions bands, thermal batteries, training, publications, support, and test equipment. U.S. Government and contractor engineering, technical, and logistics support services, and other related elements of logistics and program support. The Government of Brazil intends to utilize MK 54 Lightweight Torpedoes on its Sikorsky S-70B "Seahawk" aircraft and surface ships. The principal contractor will be Raytheon Integrated Defense System, Portsmouth, RI. There are no known offset agreements proposed in connection with this potential sale.
Moroccan tabloid Al Ahdath Al Maghribia reports that the country will take delivery of the first G550 intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft early next year. This will be the first of four aircraft that was ordered with Raytheon in 2019. The Gulfstream G-550 business jet is equipped with an Israeli-American made intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) system. The subcontracting has also been entrusted to the Israeli group Elta Systems, a subsidiary of Israel Aerospace Industries, giant of Hebrew state aerospace technology.
German defense contractor Rheinmetall on Wednesday announced the sale of MK-82-EP general purpose aircraft-dropped bombs to France and Germany. The order, for about 2,000 bombs, totals $42.3 million, Rheinmetall said. The 500-pound bomb bodies will be used by France's Mirage 2000 and Rafale fighter planes, the Direction General de l'Armament said, and as the warhead of the GBU-54 Laser Joint Direct Attack Munition system for Germany's Tornado and Eurofighter platforms. The upgraded bomb, designed by General Dynamics, is regarded as a free-fall, standard bomb, although it can be fitted with laser guidance and other improvements.
The US State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Republic of Korea of two (2) MK 15 MOD 25 Phalanx Close-In Weapons System (CIWS) Block 1B Baseline 2 (IB2) systems and related equipment for an estimated cost of $39 million. The Republic of Korea has requested to buy two (2) MK 15 MOD 25 Phalanx Close-In Weapons System (CIWS) Block 1B Baseline 2 (IB2) systems; and four thousand (4,000) rounds, 20MM cartridge API linked. Also included are spare parts; other support equipment; ammunition; books and other publications; software; training; engineering technical assistance and other technical assistance; and other related elements of the program and logistical support. The estimated total cost is $39 million. The proposed sale will improve the Republic of Korea's capability to meet current and future threats. Korea will use the systems aboard its first KDX III Batch II Class destroyer to provide it with effective means of detecting and defending itself against incoming airborne threats. The Republic of Korea will have no difficulty absorbing this equipment into its armed forces.
CNN Philippines reports that Manila has decided to postpone the purchase of BrahMos missiles from India due to lack of funds. The government is putting on hold plans to purchase the country's first cruise missile system from an Indian-Russian joint venture. This was supposed to be part of the military's long-term modernization program to boost the country's defense capabilities. BrahMos is a supersonic cruise missile, which can fly at three times the speed of sound (2.8 Mach). It can be used for both coastal defense and ground attack.
