# Space Station Crew Lands with Olympic Torch; Finishes 166 Days in Space

### NASA

Nov 10, 2013

RELEASE13-332

Expedition 37 crew members Karen Nyberg of NASA, Fyodor Yurchikhin of the Russian Federal Space Agency and Luca Parmitano of the European Space Agency have returned to Earth from the International Space Station, landing at 9:49 p.m. EST Sunday, Nov. 10 (8:49 a.m. Kazakhstan time, Nov. 11), after spending 166 days in space.

Inside the Soyuz spacecraft carrying the astronauts was the Olympic torch, which was launched to the station Nov. 6 and taken on a spacewalk Saturday as part of the torch relay. The torch will be used to light the Olympic flame at the Fisht Stadium in Sochi, Russia, marking the start of the 2014 Winter Games in February.

Nyberg, Parmitano and Yurchikhin arrived at the station in May, and during their extended stay in space orbited Earth 2,656 times and traveled more than 70 million miles. Parmitano conducted a spacewalk in July, becoming the first Italian to walk in space.

The crew welcomed Orbital Sciences Corp.’s Cygnus cargo spacecraft during its demonstration mission to the station. The trio spent hundreds of hours conducting fundamental research in areas such as human biology, life sciences, physical sciences, Earth sciences, astrophysics and technology research.

Yurchikhin now has logged 537 days in space, spanning four spaceflights. This puts him 12th on the all-time endurance list. Nyberg has accumulated 180 days in space over two missions. This was Parmitano’s first mission.

The International Space Station is a convergence of science, technology and human innovation that demonstrates new technologies and makes research breakthroughs not possible on Earth. The crew performed research into how plants grow, which may lead to more efficient crops on Earth and improve understanding of how future crews could grow their own food in space. They tested a new portable gas monitor designed to help analyze the environment inside the space station and continued fuel and combustion experiments undertaken by past crews. The crew also collected data and samples that will be used to help scientists understand ocular health issues of space station crew members and understand changes to body measurements during spaceflight.

The space station has had continuous human occupation since November 2000. In that time it has been visited by more than 200 people and a variety of international and commercial spacecraft. The space station remains the springboard to NASA’s next great leap in exploration, including future missions to an asteroid and Mars.

# Blue Roof Program sign-up station opening in Oberlin, La.

**New Orleans -- **
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will move its mobile Blue Roof Sign-Up Center to Oberlin, Louisiana, at the Allen Parish Civic Center, 609 Tiger Lane, on Sept. 16. It will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. The mobile center is currently in DeRidder.

The deadline to apply for Blue Roof is Sept. 21, 2020.

The program is currently active in Allen, Beauregard, Calcasieu, Cameron, Jefferson Davis, and Vernon parishes. 

Operation Blue Roof is a priority mission managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for FEMA. Operation Blue Roof aims to provide homeowners in disaster areas with fiber-reinforced sheeting to cover their damaged roofs until permanent repairs are made.

This program is a free service to homeowners. Operation Blue Roof protects property, reduces temporary housing costs, and allows residents to remain in their homes while recovering from the storm.

This program is for primary residences or a permanently occupied rental property with less than 50 percent structural damage. Vacation rental properties are not eligible for this program. After the blue roof is installed, the structure is declared habitable. Not all roof types qualify for the program. Roofs that are flat or made of clay, slate or asbestos tile do not qualify. All storm debris must be removed for the roof to qualify.

Residents can also sign up for the program at www.usace.army.mil/BlueRoof. Here, you can sign up for Blue Roof assistance using a Right of Entry (ROE) form, which gathers information about your residence. The ROE is a legal document that allows Corps workers to access your property and assess your home's damage. The ROE also allows contracted crews to work on your roof.

Residents can call toll free 1-888-ROOF-BLU (1-888-766-3258) for more information regarding this program. For more information regarding the recovery effort, please visit the following website:  https://hurricanelaura.la.gov.

*This article is for students grades K-4.*

John Glenn was a NASA astronaut. He was part of the first group of astronauts NASA picked. He was the first American to orbit Earth. He also became a U.S. senator. Later, he became the oldest person to fly in space.

## What Did John Glenn Do Before He Was an Astronaut?

John Glenn was born in Ohio. He was in college when World War II started. Glenn left school to fight in the war. He became a Marine pilot. Later, he trained other pilots. He also fought in the Korean War. After Korea, he became an airplane test pilot. In 1957, Glenn set a speed record when he flew from Los Angeles to New York in less than 3 1/2 hours.

## What Did John Glenn Do as an Astronaut?

In 1959, NASA picked the first group of astronauts. The seven men would fly on the Mercury spacecraft. NASA called these men the “Mercury Seven.” John Glenn was one of them.

In 1962, John Glenn became the first American to orbit Earth. He named his spacecraft “Friendship 7.” He made three orbits around Earth. He spent about five hours in space. His mission showed that the Mercury spacecraft worked in space. The mission also helped NASA learn more about being in space.

## What Did John Glenn Do After He Left NASA?

After John Glenn left NASA, he became a U.S. senator from the state of Ohio. He was a senator for 25 years. Later, Glenn worked with college students at Ohio State University in Columbus.

## What Happened on John Glenn’s Second Spaceflight?

In 1998, John Glenn got to fly to space again. He flew with six other astronauts on the space shuttle. It had been 36 years since his first spaceflight. The new flight would help NASA learn what being in space does to older people. Because NASA knew so much about him, Glenn was perfect for the job. He was 77 years old when he flew on the shuttle. He was the oldest person to fly in space.

## How Long Did John Glenn Live?

John Glenn was born on July 18, 1921. He died in Columbus, Ohio, on December 8, 2016. He was 95 years old.

#### Hunt *v.*Mansur.

Friday, *November*22.

In- case of a ploa professing to answer a part of the demand, and being an answer but to such part, the plaintiff may, before he replies to the plea, or afterwards during the term at which the plea was filed, *take*judgment by *nil dicit*for the part unanswered.

ERROR to the *Wayne*Circuit Court. *Mansur*was the plaintiff below, and obtained judgment during the term at which the plea was filed.

Sullivan, J.

Assumpsit for goods sold and delivered of the value of 150 dollars. The defendant, professing to answer part only of the plaintiff’s declaration, pleaded that as to 125 dollars, part of the said sum of 150 dollars, &c. he the said defendant had paid the same to the plaintiff by the sale and delivery of a waggon of that value, &c. The plaintiff replied that the 'defendant did not sell and deliver to him a waggon for the sum of 125 dollars in part payment of said demand, and that no such waggon was ever accepted by the plaintiff in payment of any part of said claim. A *215general demurrer was filed to the replication, which was overruled by the Court. The plaintiff thereupon prayed judgment for so much of his demand as was unanswered by the plea. The assessment of damages was, by consent of parties, submitted to the Court. The plaintiff in error contends, that, because the plaintiff below replied to the plea of the defendant, without praying judgment for so much of his demand as was unanswered by the plea, it operated as a discontinuance of the action. Regularly, the plaintiff should not have replied to the defendant’s plea, without taking judgment for the part unanswered by the defendant. A mistake of that kind, however, may be .rectified at any time during the same term. This was done by the plaintiff in the present case, praying judgment for the part unanswered immediately after the demurrer to the replication was overruled. According to the cases of *Market*v. Johnson, 1 Salk. 180, *Vincent*v. Boston, 1 Ld. Raym. 716, and *Woodward*v. *Robinson,*1 Str. 302, this was sufficient to prevent the discontinuance. See also 1 Saund. 28, note *h*(1).

*C. B. Smith,*for the plaintiff.

*S. W. Parker,*for the defendant.

*Per Curiam.*

The judgment is affirmed with costs.

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 09-5116

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

v.

SASAN GHAZAL,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western 

District of North Carolina, at Charlotte. Robert J. Conrad, 

Jr., Chief District Judge. (3:09-cr-00053-RJC-1)

Submitted: September 12, 2011 Decided: September 14, 2011

Before DUNCAN, DAVIS, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed in part, vacated in part, and remanded by unpublished 

per curiam opinion.

Claire J. Rauscher, Ann Loraine Hester, Rahwa Gebre-Egziabher, 

FEDERAL DEFENDERS OF WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA, INC., Charlotte, 

North Carolina, for Appellant. Anne M. Tompkins, United States 

Attorney, Charlotte, North Carolina; Amy E. Ray, Assistant 

United States Attorney, Asheville, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Sasan Ghazal appeals his thirty-three month sentence 

for possession of a pipe bomb in violation of 26 U.S.C. §§ 5841, 

5861(c), (d), (i), 5871 (2006). Ghazal argues that his sentence 

was procedurally unreasonable because the district court erred 

in calculating his Guidelines sentence by finding that he was a 

“prohibited person” for purposes of U.S. Sentencing Guidelines 

Manual (“USSG”) § 2K2.1(a)(4)(B) (2008). A sentence is 

procedurally unreasonable if the district court improperly 

calculated the offender’s Guidelines range of imprisonment. 

United States v. Boulware, 604 F.3d 832, 837-38 (4th Cir. 2010).

Ghazal claims that he was not a “prohibited person” 

for purposes of USSG § 2K2.1(a)(4)(B) because he had not been 

previously convicted of a crime punishable by imprisonment for a 

term exceeding a year. Ghazal’s criminal history disclosed a 

2006 North Carolina conviction for possession of ecstasy, but, 

under North Carolina’s structured sentencing regime, Ghazal 

could not have received a custodial sentence of more than a year 

given his criminal history. When Ghazal raised this argument in 

the district court, it was foreclosed by our decision in United 

States v. Harp, 406 F.3d 242 (4th Cir. 2005). Subsequently, 

however, we overruled Harp with our en banc decision in United 

States v. Simmons, __ F.3d __, 2011 WL 3607266 (4th Cir. 
3

Aug. 17, 2011) (en banc). Pursuant to the dictates of Simmons, 

we sustain Ghazal’s objection here.

Accordingly, the district court’s judgment is affirmed 

as to the unchallenged conviction, vacated as to the sentence, 

and the case is remanded for resentencing. We deny Ghazal’s 

pending motion to file a supplemental brief. We dispense with 

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are 

adequately presented in the materials before the court and 

argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED IN PART,

VACATED IN PART,

AND REMANDED
