The VECA board is appealing the Office of Planning VECA opposes ‘smoke shop’ & Development’s administrative approval for the opening of a smoke shop, according to a Board of Adjustment filing. In the appeal, VECA president Lilly Gilkey cites a Unified Development Code section that requires near Snowden School a business to obtain a special use permit for a vapor shop in areas zoned commercial mixed use-1 (CMU- 1). The code defines a vapor shop as any store where more than half its monthly sales comprise electronic cigarettes, “a device containing nicotine-based liq- uid that is vaporized and inhaled.” The VECA appeal questions OPD’s acceptance of the business’s letter, which stated its projected sales percentage for vapor products, to justify approval without a special use permit. “Owner has not pro- vided a business plan nor details on how the busi- ness will function to demonstrate that its projected sales percentage for vapor products is accurate or reasonable,” the VECA application states. “… Owners can unilaterally claim sales percentages below the definitional requirement of 50 percent to avoid city council oversight and approval,” the appeal states. “This is of special concern in this case given the proposed business’s proximity to a school and its location within a residential neighborhood,” the document states. Snowden School is on the opposite corner of McLean at Tutwiler. “… The presence of a ‘smoke shop’ located in very close proximity (just over 200 feet from school property) to Snowden School is particularly troubling considering the number of elementary and middle school children who will pass by it on their way to and from school,” the appeal states. “We feel its presence in the neighborhood can only serve to normalize the idea of smoking for the A couple checks out code enforcement notices posted to the door at 651 N.

    STELLAR CHRONICLE EDITORIAL With the launch of “STELLAR CHRONICLE” a Quarterly E Magazine, the UL Space Club is embarking on yet another ambitious voyage. A voyage fuelled by the enormous enthusiasm and youthful exuberance of its members and well-wishers. Complementing the other activities of the club, Stellar Chronicle intends to facilitate a platform for exploring, expressing, and conveying the views, observations and creative outputs of the club members and well-wishers amidst a wider audience. I am sure that this objective will eminently be fulfilled, considering the track record of the club powered by the effervescent youth and the galaxy of patrons it has. More than 50 years of Human activities in space has resulted in a continuing flow of social benefits improving the quality of life on earth. Critical knowledge and capabilities for developing Satellite Telecommunications, Global Positioning, Earth Observation, Weather forecasting, Manned spaceflight etc. have emerged. Space exploration has sparked new scientific and technological ingenuity and innovation not to mention the better understanding of our universe and the solar system that has accrued. A new perspective on our individual and collective place in the universe has evolved. It will therefore be our endeavour to bring to you in the form of articles and excerpts, the history of space exploration as also technology as it unfolds. We are fortunate to have a galaxy of eminent space scientists and technologists as also other science and technology domain veterans amidst us, to hold our hands in this onerous task. I take this opportunity to seek their continued support and guidance, as also, invoke their blessings.

  • 60 Years Since 1St American in Space: Tourists Lining up 5 May 2021, by Marcia Dunn
    60 years since 1st American in space: Tourists lining up 5 May 2021, by Marcia Dunn Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic aims to kick off tourist flights next year, just as soon as he straps into his space-skimming, plane-launched rocketship for a test run from the New Mexico base. And Elon Musk's SpaceX will launch a billionaire and his sweepstakes winners in September. That will be followed by a flight by three businessmen to the International Space Station in January. "We've always enjoyed this incredible thing called space, but we always want more people to be able to experience it as well," NASA astronaut Shane Kimbrough said from the space station Wednesday. "So I think this is a great step in the right direction." It's all rooted in Shepard's 15-minute flight on May 5, 1961. Shepard was actually the second person in space—the Soviet Union launched cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin three weeks earlier, to Shepard's everlasting dismay. In this May 5, 1961 file photo, astronaut Alan Shepard sits in his capsule at Cape Canaveral, Fla., aboard a Mercury-Redstone rocket. Freedom 7 was the first American manned suborbital space flight, making Shepard the first American in space. (AP Photo) Sixty years after Alan Shepard became the first American in space, everyday people are on the verge of following in his cosmic footsteps. Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin used Wednesday's anniversary to kick off an auction for a seat on the company's first crew spaceflight—a short Shepard- like hop launched by a rocket named New Shepard.
