Copyright Expiration Day - old text
editIn the United States, the copyright law causes all copyrighted works which have reached the end of their term of copyright protection to fall into the public domain on January 1 of the appropriate year.
Due to the accession by the United States to the Berne Convention (Berne Union treaty), the U.S. originally changed its laws to have all works created by an author fall out of copyright (into the public domain) at the same time, January 1, 50 years after they died, or either 75 years after publication or 100 years after creation, whichever is shorter, if the author was not a natural person or was a collective work or work for hire.
This was later changed as a result of the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act which increased protections for copyright holders by 20 years to harmonize with the WIPO Copyright Treaty and the equivalent extension made to the 1993 revisions to the Berne Convention.
As a result of these changes, in the case of a work created by an individual, the work goes into the public domain on January 1, 70 years after the author dies. Where the work is a joint effort of two or more authors, it goes into the public domain on January 1, 70 years after the death of the last surviving joint author.
In the case of a work made for hire, a pseudonymous work, or a collective work, the work goes into the public domain on January 1, 95 years after the date of first publication, or 120 years after creation, whichever is shorter.
background Piper Alpha
editde.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piper Alpha en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piper Alpha
http://www.seacomcanada.com/paeng.htm Occidental Petroleum made approximately £3.5m ($6.25 Million US) a day from Piper Alpha which, at its peak, accounted for 10% of the UK's North Sea oil production.
Estimates have since placed the cost to Occidental Petroleum at more than £8.5 Billion (15.2 Billion US).
APPENDIX TO THE OPINIONS OF THE JUDGES in RECLAIMING MOTIONS in the causes CALEDONIA NORTH SEA LIMITED Pursuers and Reclaimers; Against
Verification: The Piper Alpha was a North Sea oil production platform operated by Occidental Petroleum (Caledonia) Ltd and Texaco,
- Appendix 1.2 Parties
- This company were formerly known inter alios as Occidental Petroleum (Caledonia) Ltd (hereinafter referred to as OPCAL). ... In 1988 at the time of the accident OPCAL were the Operators of the Piper Alpha and Claymore oil production platform
- By the date of the accident in 1988 the Participants were OPCAL (successors to the original interest of OPUK), Texaco Britain Ltd (successors to the original interest of Getty Oil International (England) Ltd.), Union Texas Petroleum Ltd (successors to the original interest of Allied Chemical (Great Britain) Ltd.), and Thomson North Sea Ltd. (successors to the original interest of Thomson Scottish Associates Ltd.)
- Their respective shares in the Piper Alpha operations were as follows: OPCAL’s share was 36.5%, Texaco’s share was 23.5%, Union Texas Petroleum’s share was 20%, and Thomson’s share was 20%.

impact calculations
editWhen a 1 cm particle hits Stardust (spacecraft) at x metres per second, how much energy is released and how much momentum is exchanged? Assume particle hits spacecraft at relative velocity v, and is fully absorbed by the Whipple shields. Kinetic Energy = 0.5 m v^2
Total momentum before impact = M0 + mv (relative to spacecraft it was travelling 0 metres per second) must equal momentum after impact = (M+m)V where V is small but nonzero, V=mv/(M+m)
volume = 4/3 (PI r^3) = 0.52 cubic cm
- case A a 1 cm sphere of ice mass 0.5 gramme, 0.5 x 10^-3 kg
- case B a 1 cm sphere of rock density 3 most likely for a meterorite mass 1.5 gramme, 1.5 x 10^-3 kg
- case C a 1 cm sphere of iron ore density 5 mass 2.5 gramme, 2.5 x 10^-3 kg
- Stardust flew by the comet at 6,1 km/s or 6100 metres per second
- M=380kg although some of the included 80 kg of propellant will have been used
case m v V=mv/(M+m) ---- ------------------------------ A 0.5e-3 6100

Titan notes
editHuygens finds atmospheric pressure at 18 km (11 to 12 miles) altitude measured about 50 kilo Pascals (7.3 pounds per square inch). Earth has about 100 kilo Pascals at sea level, and pressure drops by about 50% for each 5 km altitude.

Huygens probe early results
editQuick and dirty transcription of Claudio Sollazzo transcript.
Claudio Sollazzo is head of Huygens operations unit, who has been babysitting the probe for many years, from ESA, from GPL. As Jean Pierre (sp?) has announced we have seen data from at least the first half hour of descent. During entry phase. Parachute deployed 15 seconds earlier than prediction, very close to expected profile. We are waiting to see the History data, the telemetry that was recorded on the probe before even the back cover came off so we can reconstruct the atmospheric entry phase.
From Chain B batteries are Ok, computer, software and instrument states are all good. Internal probe temperature was 25 degrees C, while outside was -180 degrees C, so our instruments were operating in a mild temperature. This explains the long life of the probe on the the ground.
The spin rate started at 9.5 revolutions per minute. and by the time we left it was 4.3 revolutions per minute. The variations told us that the third parachute was deployed correctly. When we left the probe was at 50 km altitude, and the radar altimeter was to be locked (?).
We have little information from Chain A, which we are investigating. The chains are totally independent, meaning there are effectively two independent probe, within the same housing - there is full redundancy.
The counter of lost packets was zero, meaning no packets were lost during the probe's transmission. Applause.
