# 26th Rocket Brigade

The 26th Rocket Brigade (Military Unit Number 54006) is a brigade of the Russian Ground Forces, stationed at Luga, Leningrad Oblast in the Leningrad Military District. It is equipped with the 9K720 Iskander surface-to surface missile.

## History

After a merge of two organizations in 1993, it traces its history to the creation of the 149th Guards "Nemanskaya Red Banner orders of Suvorov, Kutuzov and Aleksandr Nevskiy" Artillery Division in 1974.
It traces its history to the 149th Cannon Artillery Neman Red Banner Order of Suvorov, Kutuzov and Alexander Nevsky Brigade. The 149th Cannon Artillery Brigade was formed on May 28, 1944, on the basis of the 403rd Howitzer Artillery Regiment of High Power (ru:403-й гаубичный артиллерийский полк большой мощности), the 537th cannon artillery regiment and the 827th separate army reconnaissance artillery battalion. The 403rd Howitzer Regiment was separated from the 108th High Power Howitzer Regiment in 1939. It was armed with 24 203mm howitzers. It was part of the frontline army from June 22, 1941, to July 27, 1941, and from October 16, 1941, to April 22, 1944. On June 22, 1941, the 403rd Howitzer Regiment was stationed in Kolomna. With the outbreak of war, another regiment was established at the base of the regiment, the 590th Howitzer Artillery Regiment of High Power, and the 403rd regiment was sent to the disposal of the Western Front. The regiment arrived in Orsha, but already on July 12, 1941, returned to Vyazma without materiel. It remains unknown whether the regiment lost guns in Orsha or on the march, or whether the guns were not transported to Orsha. Since one divizion (battalion) from the regiment participated in some kind of military operations jointly with the 102nd Tank Division was planned for mid-July 1941, it is obvious that the regiment had some kind of materiel. But on July 27, 1941, the regiment was withdrawn from the front line to the rear, where it remains until mid-October 1941. Apparently, in the fall of 1941, it was re-armed with 122-mm guns. In the second half of October 1941, the 403rd Howitzer Regiment was transferred to the 43rd Army. After the formation of the 149th Cannon Artillery Brigade, the brigade took part in Operation Bagration in Belarus in 1944, in the East Prussian operation, and the Battle of Königsberg. After the war, reportedly circa 1974, it was reorganised into the 149th Artillery Division in Kaliningrad. Initial reports suggested the division was reduced in status to the 3598th Base for Storage of Weapons and Equipment in the late 1980s; now it appears that the division was actually disbanded in July 1993 and its lineage, honors, and awards transferred to the 26th Rocket Brigade.
The 463rd Rocket Brigade was initially formed in 1988 in Kaliningrad as a surface-to-surface missile unit. It was moved to Luga in 1993 and took over the honors and awards from the 149th Artillery Division, becoming the 26th Rocket Brigade.
# Kirkland Cannery Building

The Kirkland Cannery Building, also once called King County Food Processing Plant and State Cannery Number 4, is a historic building in Kirkland, Washington. It is an 11,000 ft$^2$ cannery, built in 1936 by President Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration (WPA), and was sold to the City of Kirkland in 1941 for $44.79. It was operated as a cooperative to benefit the poor during the Great Depression, along with three other WPA plants at Kent, Wapato, and Wenatchee. Citizens could bring in crops, fish, and chicken, to be canned at no charge in exchange for donating one third of the product to "state institutions". During World War II, it "was largely as an aid to the general food conservation program and the war effort rather than as an economic aid to the communities served". Around this time, it produced a peak of 400,000 cans of food per season. After the war it was leased to local businesspeople and used for private concerns, then sold to them in 1974. They operated the Kirkland Custom Seafood business, using the cannery building as a smokehouse for Aldercove brand smoked salmon, processing 350,000 pounds of salmon there in 2000, the year before it closed.
Around 2006, the city was looking for a new owner to preserve the building, and in late 2014, the cannery building was sold to local resident and Philanthropist Carl Bradley who will preserve and restore the Cannery, returning it back to serve the community once again.

# The Fowl Twins Deny All Charges

The Fowl Twins Deny All Charges is the second novel in Eoin Colfer's The Fowl Twins series, a spin-off and continuation of the Artemis Fowl series and second cycle of The Fowl Adventures, following Myles and Beckett Fowl, the younger twin brothers of criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl II, as they live out their house arrest under the supervision of pixie-elf hybrid Lazuli Heitz. Deny All Charges was released 20 October 2020 by Viking Press and Disney Hyperion. The novel was well received by critics, with reviews comparing its quality and success to that of the original series.

## Background

Colfer stated writing Artemis Fowl and the Last Guardian that he had had "enough" with the series, opting to take a "breather" from it in favor of other projects, stating with regards the writing of The Fowl Twins that "[i]t would probably be a lot easier if I was on Artemis 15 by now. I just find I get bored, and if I get bored, the work suffers", having decided to return to the Fowl series after having "had too many stories running around in [his] head to ignore", referencing that while it is "not very Irish to be proud of something, but I started to feel a pride in the [Fowl] world. I'm kind of a curmudgeon, really, but I went back into it more positively." Colfer received an initial order of two books for The Fowl Twins spin-off series from Disney Hyperion, writing both The Fowl Twins and Deny All Charges simultaneously.

## Reception

Critical reception for The Fowl Twins Deny All Charges was positive, meeting with praise from most reviewers. Kirkus Reviews praised the book, writing: "Colfer [continuously] strings dazzling displays of high tech, heartwarming peeks at the family dynamics of the closely knit if decidedly eccentric Fowl clan, dolphin-back rides, huge blobs of slime (some of it explosive), and a climactic exhibition of prejudice gone off the rails that is intense enough to leave readers queasy." The Irish Times praised the novel as an "offer [of a] page-turning adventure with a side of ridiculous fun", numbering it among the "best children’s books of the year". while Laughing Place praised how "Colfer has proven that you can capture lightning in a bottle twice with this supremely hilarious and joyful read", and of his "gift with language and for creating such likable characters that makes this reader chuckle from page to page." Better Reading complimented the novel's "multi-faceted" characters and for "action sequences [that] are jam-packed [with a] dialled-up [form of] craziness [at] maximum levels in a kind of literary challenge."
