The N-1 rocket was the Soviet space program's answer to America's Saturn V for the race to the moon. Nearly as tall as the Saturn at almost 345 feet, it was capable of producing over 2 million pounds more thrust from its kerosene/ liquid oxygen engines. While NASA chose to develop new large engines for the Saturn's first stage from scratch, the Soviets chose to use a cluster of 30 smaller, off-the-shelf engines in an attempt to save development time and costs. This proved to be an unmanageable arrangement, and the project was canceled after four failed launch attempts. This exhibit was built by Jimbo Perhaps.

In June 2012, Bastrop Main Street Program’s Entrepreneur-Ready Leadership Team was responsible for Bastrop being only the second city in Texas to be awarded the designation of an “Entrepreneur-Ready Community” by the Texas Center for Rural Entrepreneurship.
As a part of this project and in partnership with Bastrop High School Business Department, student finalists presented their business plans for a start-up business in Bastrop to a panel of judges on May 2, 2013. Students were vying for over $850 in scholarship money.
These are pictures of the event were taken by Upstart Bastrop thanks to Bastrop Main Street Program and the Entrepreneur-Ready Leadership team.

Militares pedem nivelamento de salário com outras carreiras
Em audiência pública na Comissão de Direitos Humanos e Legislação Participativa (CDH) do Senado, representantes dos militares ativos e aposentados debateram a defasagem na remuneração do setor. Ao final da audiência, o senador Paulo Paim (PT-RS), que a presidiu, prometeu encaminhar um documento com o pleito da categoria às autoridades competentes.
Segundo relatos dos participantes da audiência, desde a edição da Medida Provisória 2215/2001, a situação dos militares começou a se deteriorar progressivamente. A MP acabou com gratificações como adicional de inatividade e o chamado “posto acima” - promoção que o militar recebia ao passar para a reserva. Outros auxílios também foram retirados pela medida, como o auxílio moradia e a licença-prêmio.
O presidente da Associação dos Militares da Reserva, Reformados e Pensionistas das Forças Armadas, Genivaldo da Silva, citou essas perdas como um dos principais motivos da defasagem de remuneração.
- Por isso que nós estamos hoje com um salário superdefasado. E além dessas questões aqui citadas, nós ficamos dez anos sem um real de aumento – disse.
Genivaldo informou que um segundo-sargento das Forças Armadas ganha R$ 2,7 mil com 30 anos de serviço. Um capitão das Forças Armadas recebe R$ 5,3 mil – salário considerado baixo se comparado a outras categorias.
- Ganha menos do que um soldado da Polícia Militar do DF e dos Bombeiros, que são excelentes profissionais. Nós tiramos o chapéu para eles, mas não podemos ganhar menos do que eles.
Salário-família
Outra reclamação recorrente durante a audiência foi o salário-família que os militares recebem para ajudar no custeio da educação de seus dependentes, no valor de apenas R$ 0,16 por filho. A presidente da Federação da Família Militar, Rita Deinstmann, comparou o benefício ao que recebe a família de um presidiário.
- Por que o dependente de um presidiário recebe R$ 915 e nós recebemos R$ 0,16? É uma vergonha! – reclamou.
O senador Rodrigo Rollemberg (PSB-DF) esteve na audiência e deu apoio aos militares. Para ele, a valorização da categoria deve ser uma questão de interesse nacional, devido à importância do trabalho no país. Segundo o senador, a defesa de riquezas como a Amazônia e o pré-sal é um imenso desafio para o Brasil, que conta com as Forças Armadas.
- Hoje vivemos num ambiente de paz, e todos nós torcemos para permanecer assim. Mas a gente sabe que não pode se descuidar para uma eventualidade de o Brasil ter que defender o seu território ou suas riquezas. Portanto, a questão dos militares não é uma questão apenas dos militares – afirmou Rollemberg.
Paim sugeriu a realização de uma reunião com a categoria em seu gabinete para formular um documento com o pleito dos militares e prometeu todo o apoio para sensibilizar as autoridades competentes.
- Farei de tudo para ajudar para que os pleitos cheguem lá e que, oxalá, eles sejam efetivamente atendidos – prometeu.

CDH debate situação de militares reformados e pensionistas (Da Redação)
Começou a audiência pública da Comissão de Direitos Humanos e Legislação Participativa (CDH) para debater a situação de militares reformados e pensionistas. O senador Paulo Paim (PT-RS), autor do requerimento para realização do debate, afirmou que o tema é urgente, pois os militares são os servidores mais mal remunerados do país.
- Os militares sempre tiveram uma remuneração modesta, mas depois de 2001 a situação começou a piorar gradativamente – lamentou Paim em seu discurso em Plenário na última sexta (22).
Paim lembrou, logo no início da reunião, que a realização dessa audiência é um compromisso assumido quando ainda era presidente da CDH. Em fevereiro deste ano, ele foi substituído na função pela senadora Ana Rita (PT-ES), que também terá dois anos de mandato.
Foram convidados para o debate o representante da Associação de Praças das Forças Armadas (APRAFA), Antonio Vicente da Silva; e os presidentes da Federação da Família Militar do DF (FAMIL), Cantidio Rosa Dantas; da Comissão Nacional QESA Brasil (CNQB), Eduardo Souza Silva; da Associação dos Militares da Reserva, Reformados e Pensionistas das Forças Armadas (AMARP), Genivaldo da Silva; da União Nacional de Esposas de Militares das Forças Armadas (UNEMFA), Ivone Luzardo; da Federação da Família Militar - Mulher/DF (FAMIL Mulher), Rita Deinstmann; e da Confederação Nacional da Família Militar (CONFAMIL), Waldemar da Mouta.
A audiência está sendo realizada na sala 2 da Ala Senador Nilo Coelho e é presidida por Paulo Paim.

Annenberg Center Live
On Thursday evening, October 29th, in partnership with the Theatre Arts Program’s fall production of Bury the Dead, a war play by Irwin Shaw directed by Dr. James F. Schlatter, members of the University of Pennsylvania Student Veterans Association (UPSVA) and Veterans Upward Bound (VUB) attended a rehearsal of the play. Following a discussion with the cast, Warrior Writers of Philadelphia conducted a writing and art-making workshop with the veterans that focused on some of the issues raised in the production. In particular, they wrote and created art on the subject of “thoughts of home,” which is central to the action of the play and to veterans’ experience during deployment. Some of the work created will be displayed in the lobby of the Bruce Montgomery Theater, Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, during the run of the production, November 18-21 at 7:00.

Oberlin theater program's production of Terrence McNally's irreverent comedy, Where has Tommy Flowers Gone? ran December 8th through 10th. The show is a quick-paced tour de force in which the main character takes the audience on a wild roller-coaster ride of comic sketches, dramatic scenes, anti-authoritarian diatribes, and fantasy sequences that collectively portray his life, personality, and politics.
