John S. Watts, Jr., also known as John Boy (born March 9, 1959), is an American author and former drug dealer who is best known for his memoirs The Rollin 80's and Power of the V.
Early life
Watts was the eldest of eight children living is South Central, Los Angeles, California, into a family on welfare. At age 12, he hustled drugs on the streets to help provide for his family. It escalated into a drug business by the late 1970s. He stole $300 from his mother's rent money and used it to purchase cocaine from a local drug dealer; a few months later he rented a small one-bed apartment in L.A.'s Westside and turned into a crack house. Nine months and two million dollars later he stopped and walked away from the drug dealing business. He moved his mother into a home he purchased in Pasadena Hills California.
In 1985 he opened a hair salon in Inglewood, California, and in 1986 opened a club in Marina Del Ray. That business failed, and in 1988, Watt entered into a drug deal that went bad when he met with a police informer he thought was a drug dealer, trying to set up a purchase of 225 kilos for $3.2M. He was arrested and sentenced to six years in state prison.
After serving 33 months, Watts was released back on March 29, 1991, and opened a Home Health Care Agency in Culver City, California. After being in business for 13 months his business was closed after Medicare accused him over billing his them an estimated $5 million. On Labor Day 1994 the FBI served him with an indictment for Medicare fraud charges. On May 2, 2000, he was sentenced to 42 months in Federal Prison. He was also sentenced to 78 months for income Tax Fraud.
Career
While in prison Watts wrote 39 books, and another after he was released. In 2012, Ice-T, a friend, invested $20,000 in Watts's publishing company. He also wrote movie scripts and reality shows, and launched an entertainment company that planned three reality shows including Your Daddy Knows Best and Life After Prison.
In 2018, Watts appeared on Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood with his stepdaughter, Apple.

According to Hindu mythology, the Nivik or Nivek is the confluence of three rivers: the Ganges, the Saraswati, and the Yamuna.
According to tradition it was among the favorite places of the goddess, Ganga. Often she would summon other gods and goddesses to the Nivik, so that they could meditate and collaborate.
In one such legend, Ganga was being chased by the demon Bali. She hid in the Nivik, where Bali was forbidden to enter. Safe in the confluence, Ganga dispatched two salmon upriver; the fish swam until they found Vamana, and they entreated the dwarf god to come to Ganga’s aid. Vamana rode the fish downstream, one foot atop each salmon, until he reached the Nivik and banished Bali back to the underworld.

Green Launch is a company that is currently attempting to use a Hydrogen Impulse Launch System to deliver payloads into low Earth orbit. It is in concept a spin-off of the SHARP project which ended 1998.
Green Launch
The Green Launch system is based on the light-gas gun, using hydrogen gas as the working fluid and natural gas, electric grid or solar power as the energy source. Heating and pre-pressurizing the hydrogen working gas takes place before the launch and most of the hydrogen is recovered by a muzzle muffler at the end of the launch tube to be reused for subsequent launches.
The first orbital commercial offering could be a system that can launch (5 kg) small sat payloads into orbit with the aid of an onboard rocket that puts the payload into a specific orbit. The competitive advantages over all rocket launch include, lower cost, short lead time, 5 times payload fraction and much less pollution.
One eventual proposed configuration, a 1,100 metres (3,600 ft) long tube that would be placed along the side of a mountain or mounted in an angled tunnel. Ideally its horizontal and vertical direction (azimuth and elevation) could be adjusted based on customer launch requirements.
The proposed launcher is designed to give projectiles an initial speed of 6 km/s (3.7 mi/s) while mean orbital velocity needed to maintain a stable low Earth orbit is about 7.8 km/s. The projectile design therefore must include a one-stage rocket which circularizes the orbit once the vehicle is in space. The total delta-v needed to achieve low Earth orbit with the Green Launch system starts around 9.0 km/s when accounting for losses due to the atmosphere etc. The designed payloads will include spacecraft, satellites, consumable supplies such as water or fuel to supply a propellant depot in orbit.
Projected dollar cost per pound to orbit is $100 ($200/kg).
