WASHINGTON — The White House agreed Tuesday to allow senators on the Intelligence Committee — and their staffs — to have ongoing access to legal rationale for the Obama administration's targeted killing program of U.S. citizens abroad.
Colorado Sen. Mark Udall and Oregon Sen. Mark Wyden, both Democrats, have been pushing the U.S. Justice Department to be transparent in how they justify killing American-born citizens abroad who they believe are apart of terrorism activities.
The administration told Udall's office Tuesday morning it would allow senators and their legal staffs continuing access to the legal rationale ahead of the Senate vote to confirm John Brennan as director of the Central Intelligence Agency.
Udall said he wanted full access to the Justice Department's legal opinion before voting to confirm Brennan. Now that he has the documents, Udall said he will support him.
"For the Senate Intelligence Committee to fulfill its oversight responsibilities, we need full access to the Obama administration's documents that outline the legal basis for the lethal targeting of American citizens," Udall said Tuesday. "We need to understand what the administration believes the limits on its authorities are."
Last month, President Barack Obama did a limited release of the confidential legal opinion to senators on the Intelligence Committee justifying the targeted killing program.
The legal opinion was available for a single day and Udall and his Senate colleagues were not allowed to bring in staffers or their own lawyers to help them parse the language
Udall said he only had 15 to 20 minutes with the document because it was a busy day and he wasn't able to fully understand it without help.
That said, he said there "could be a strong case" for the United States to continue the targeted killing program, but he wants more time, and some legal help, before deciding for sure.
Americans are afforded constitutional privileges both on the homeland and abroad — making the killing program a complex legal tangle between civil liberties and the executive and legislative branches of government.
On Tuesday Udall said, "I intend to carefully review these documents with a continuing goal to protect national security, safeguard Americans' constitutional liberties and determine the limits of executive branch powers in this new age of warfare."

While much of the talk following the Red River Shootout has surrounded the gaudy offensive numbers put up by Oklahoma's offense visiting Rivals100 linebacker Mike Mitchell and his father Ken couldn't help but notice the defensive performance by Mike Stoops' and his bunch.
The nation's No. 32 overall prospect was the highest ranked class of 2013 prospect in attendance and came in to see his first Sooner game, and perhaps more notably his first Red River Shootout. And if the mission was to get a feel for just what the game is all about, the Sooners can consider it mission accomplished with the Plano (Texas) Prestonwood Christian Academy star's family.

We choose this topic because a lot of people in this part of Brooklyn are unfortunate to not have fathers. We came up with a scenario of a young girl without a father. It shows how her and her boyfriend broke up, and since she had no one to talk to, she ended up going to another boy on the street . The second situation is her and her boyfriend breaking up but this time she had a father to talk to so she ended up in the right hands. We also had interviews with some of the employees and interns here at ST JOHNS RECREATION CENTER. We asked questions concerning how it was for them growing up without fathers and would you let them back in your lives. Then we asked the employees who work with fatherless children how it impacts how the child acts.

- Newton, Peter W.; Murray, Shane; Wakefield, Ron; Murphy, Catherine; Khor, Lee-Anne; Morgan, Tom
- Abstract
- Regeneration of residential 'greyfield' areas in Australia's capital cities aims to improve affordability and sustainability. Achieving these outcomes requires an integrated and strategic response from policy-makers and developers across the domains of finance planning, design, construction technology and community engagement.

A report prepared for a foundation connected with the Edison Electric Institute (EEI), the association for investor-owned utilities, underscores the high cost of current environmental compliance for electric utilities and recommends renewable power generation as a means of reducing the costs and growing risks associated with potential future greenhouse gas mandates.
'While it is extremely unlikely that mandatory [carbon dioxide] controls will take effect during the period examined in this report [i.e., over the next decade], uncertainty over the eventual stringency, structure and pace of potential [carbon dioxide] emission reductions adds significant risks for utility investment in new baseload generation,' the report states. 'Given the size and scope of the issue, coupled with the long expected lifetimes of generating facilities, the uncertainty regarding possible greenhouse gas regulation may represent as much risk to utility supply planning as the uncertainty regarding fuel prices.'
The report, 'Why are Electricity Prices Increasing? An Industry-Wide Perspective,' was produced by the Brattle Group for the Edison Foundation, which is affiliated with EEI.
Fuel and purchased power cost increases, the report says, 'have been enormous and are the largest cause of recent electric cost increases.' The Brattle Group's analysis found that fuel and purchased power costs account for roughly 95% of the cost increases for utilities in the last five years.

prev | next
(1) Except as provided in this chapter, the Secretary of the Treasury shall deposit in the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts amounts the Secretary receives from the operations of the United States Mint. Expenditures made from appropriated funds which are subsequently determined to be properly chargeable to the Numismatic Public Enterprise Fund established by section 5134 shall be reimbursed by such Fund to the appropriation. The Secretary shall annually sell to the public, directly and by mail, sets of uncirculated and proof coins minted under paragraphs (1) through (6) of section 5112 (a) of this title, and shall solicit such sales through the use of the customer list of the United States Mint. Except with respect to amounts deposited in the Numismatic Public Enterprise Fund in accordance with section 5134, the Secretary may not use amounts the Secretary receives from profits on minting coins or from charges on gold or silver bullion under section 5122 to pay officers and employees.
(A) In addition to the coins described in paragraph (1), the Secretary shall sell annually to the public directly and by mail, sets of proof coins minted under paragraphs (1) through (6) of section 5112 (a).
(B) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for purposes of this paragraph—
(i) the coins described in paragraphs (2) through (4) of section 5112 (a) shall be made of an alloy of 90 percent silver and 10 percent copper; and

(D) The Secretary shall obtain silver for coins minted under this paragraph by purchase from stockpiles established under the Strategic and Critical Materials Stock Piling Act (50 U.S.C. 98 et seq.). At such time as the silver stockpile is depleted, the Secretary shall obtain silver for such coins by purchase of silver mined from natural deposits in the United States or in a territory or possession of the United States not more than 1 year following the month in which the ore from which it is derived was mined. The Secretary shall pay not more than the average world price for such silver. The Secretary may issue such regulations as may be necessary to carry out this subparagraph.
(b) To the extent the Secretary decides is necessary, the Secretary may use amounts received from depositors for refining bullion and the proceeds from the sale of byproducts (including spent acids from surplus bullion recovered in refining processes) to pay the costs of refining the bullion (including labor, material, waste, and loss on the sale of sweeps). The Secretary may not use amounts appropriated for the mints to pay those costs.

Actually, there are at least two Mangekyō users who haven't shown signs of deteriorated vision yet, despite the fact they used their Mangekyō techniques a lot: I'm talking about Kakashi Hatake and Obito Uchiha. For the former, it seems he knows about the side-effects of the Mangekyō's power, so he might have blurry vision. But what about Obito? Even though his Space-Time Migration seems to be a Mangekyō technique, Tobi uses it without worry. Maybe we should say it in the Obito Uchiha part.--JOA20 (talk) 20:17, September 2, 2012 (UTC)

Awakening Stolen Sharingan
Should Madara's statement about needing two Sharingan to unlock the Mangekyo be listed as trivia? TricksterKing (talk) 12:50, September 19, 2012 (UTC)
- He said that? Also, Kakashi?--Cerez365™(talk) 13:02, September 19, 2012 (UTC)
- He said it when he told Obito that he would take his Sharingan if he died, [1] and [2], Kakashi seems to be an anomaly for Sharingan related matters.TricksterKing (talk) 21:53, September 19, 2012 (UTC)
He wasn't referring to Mangekyou, but Rinnegan. He gave his eyes to Nagato, so he needed another pair to get a new one--Elveonora (talk) 22:29, September 19, 2012 (UTC)
- Madara said he needs two Sharingan to bring out their true potential, that doesn't necessarily mean MS. Translators got it really mixed up this week because I wouldn't see why else Obito would say "then together with Kakashi..." he could get stronger.--Cerez365™(talk) 12:42, September 20, 2012 (UTC)
- This is the issue with translators, different groups often say different things. In one I read, Obito said "then... it means that together with Kakashi I can become stronger" and in another it said "that means... that means I can become stronger than Kakashi". I wish Shounen was still here.--220.127.116.11 (talk) 13:56, September 20, 2012 (UTC)
Duplicate Jutsus
Does anyone know a reason why the Wiki hiccuped again and has made two of Fire Release: Blast Wave Wild Dance?--Questionaredude (talk) 00:00, September 20, 2012 (UTC)
- No idea. All the previous articles that had duplicate entries show up properly now after the update. What's even stranger is that that's only happening in the Kamui article and here. It shows up ok in Obito's infobox and in the chapter infobox. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 00:20, September 20, 2012 (UTC)
Just a thought
It's never revealed how Kakashi awakened his Mangekyo Sharingan, yet Obito most likely awakened his at the news of Rin's death. Could it be possible that the two awakened at the same time, as if they were linked together?LeeHatake93 (talk) 20:00, September 20, 2012 (UTC)
- It's possible but I figure we'll see how it happened in the next few chapters.TricksterKing (talk) 22:37, September 20, 2012 (UTC)
Eternal's Power
Sorry if I forgot something, or if I'm ignorant (lack of knowledge), but all I know is that with the "Eternal" Mankekyō, the user can't suffer the blindness of its normal power, however is just that the power it grants, or have something more that I don't know? MaskedManMadara (talk) 21:45, September 21, 2012 (UTC)
There's also a new power, but unknown... presumably Rinnegan--Elveonora (talk) 23:33, September 21, 2012 (UTC)
ok, thank you again :) MaskedManMadara (talk) 15:52, September 22, 2012 (UTC)
Unlock MS without gaining the third tomoe?
In the latest chapter, Madara hints that Obito used his MS despite Obito only having two tomoe's. Should we add that to trivia? 22.214.171.124 (talk) 20:36, September 23, 2012 (UTC)BobBob
- We don't know, or do we? ... is there a manga/databook page stating that a fully matured Sharingan is a requirement in order to progress further?
- But Obito didn't have MS back then, emotion of great loss is required, or nope?
--Elveonora (talk) 22:07, September 23, 2012 (UTC)
Wow, I never noticed he still had two tomoe. I don't think you can just skip the natural progression like that though, and what Madara said isn't definite. That kinda shoots down the whole "he used MS to escape the rubble thing" in my head. Any way, we can always wait and see no? The story is unfolding either way.--Cerez365™(talk) 00:03, September 24, 2012 (UTC)
Answered in Chapter 606, Page 2. Obito (and Kakashi) didn't skip getting the 3rd tomoe. They got it first, and only then did their Sharingans evolve to Mangekyou, albeit in a matter of seconds. --lnite
I read a better translation and it read that he somehow slipped from under the rock as it was caving in, as in while it was still falling in he must of rolled over or moved himself just out of the way, he wasn't hinting at kamui or anything... 220.127.116.11 (talk) 06:18, October 12, 2012 (UTC)
Pair of Eyes' Connection
In the latest chapter, Obito was able to remote see what his other eye, which Kakashi had, seen. Was it added into the page yet? --VolteMetalic (talk) 10:23, October 9, 2012 (UTC)
- Sharingan#Receiving the Sharingan.--Cerez365™(talk) 10:34, October 9, 2012 (UTC)
Should it be noted that Tobi and Kakashi Hatake are the youngest people to unlock the Mongekyō Sharingan? Or are they not? Zelwolf (talk) 20:16, October 10, 2012 (UTC)Zelwolf
They are, but that's less than trivial I guess. EDIT: there might have been younger before them, so...--Elveonora (talk) 20:21, October 10, 2012 (UTC)
Oh, okay. I mean it's not like a really needed to know thing for the story line Zelwolf (talk) 20:22, October 10, 2012 (UTC)Zelwolf
Itachi was 12 when he awakened his Mangekyo Sharingan, making him the youngest known. Obito and Kakashi were 13. Then Sasuke at unlocked his at 16. 22.214.171.124 (talk) 06:15, October 12, 2012 (UTC)
Obito's MS usage without strain
Obito suffers no strain refrainlessly using MS due to Hashirama's DNA implanted on him. This is no speculation and I am not forum-ing. Isn't it true that Hashirama's DNA boosts/longevizes the Sharingan power? It's true for Danzo and Obito using Inazagi and also for the resurrected Madara. Isn't it now a fact that Obito has his DNA? Isn't Obito the only one we've seen using the MS so extensively without apparent side effects? Just making a logical deduction here. I believe we will see this more formally explained in the series pretty soon, as only recently Kakashi was revealed to suffer Sharingan strain for extended usage of MS and soon after that Obito was revealed to carry Hashirama's DNA.--Holyn (talk) 17:14, October 12, 2012 (UTC)
- And when it is announced formally, it will be reflected on the wikia, not before.--Cerez365™(talk) 17:16, October 12, 2012 (UTC)
Obito can use his MS without strain because he has Senju DNA within him. Same as how Danzo was able to use Shisui's Kotoamatsukami in somewhat of a succession, whereas Itachi could only activate it after another decade.—This unsigned comment was made by 220.127.116.11 (talk • contribs) .

Non-original eyes
Can someone use their mangekyou without their original eyes (sharingan)? And if them implanted two different eyes (sharingan) with the ability of mangekyou, they will have the to differents? please, I know that this is not forum and don't interpret as speculation without answer my question first.

Tailed Beast Control
The Mangekyō Sharingan is hot specifically needed to control the tailed beasts, it merely enhances the user's dōjutsu power. Sasuke himself was able to control Kurama in Naruto to an extent, suppressing its chakra, with only his standard Sharingan. Furthermore, Obito told Sasuke that all Uchiha can potentially control the tailed beasts, but mentioned nothing about the Mangekyō Sharingan. Control for the tailed beasts should be removed from the Mangekyō Sharingan page and moved to the Sharingan page. Steveo920, December 17,2012, 21:55
- Still doesn't change the fact that it can be used for controlling it.— UltimateSupreme ƒ(♫) 03:27 UTC, Tuesday, 18 December 2012

When: Saturday February 25th (1:00 - -3:00 pm)
In recognition of SPAY DAY 2012 local private and public organizations have formed a partnership, and combined resources, to reduce pet overpopulation in Forsyth County by providing spay/neuter vouchers to very low-income residents of Forsyth County.
Each year Forsyth County Animal Control shelters over 8,000 animals. Only about 1,700 will be recovered by their owners, or find new homes. Approximately 3,000 of these dogs and cats are turned over to the shelter by their owners and one third will be a puppy or kitten. The leading animal welfare organizations in the nation have determined that spaying and neutering is a fundamental element of responsible pet ownership and the key to reducing the number of unwanted pets. This voucher program is a great opportunity to save some money and make a difference!
What You Need to Bring: If you qualify, please come to one of the above locations on the date/time above and bring the following:
There is a limit of 3 vouchers per household. Surgeries will take place at the Central Spay, Neuter and Wellness Clinic in Kernersville. Recipients of vouchers will be responsible for making an appointment with the clinic before April 15th. Only pets less than 7 years of age are eligible.
Forsyth Spay Day Coalition: AARF, Forgotten Felines of Forsyth, Forsyth Co. Animal Control, Forsyth Humane Society, Forsyth Veterinary Medical Association, 4 Paws Pet Foundation, Fur-Ever Friends of NC, and Humane Solution Spay/Neuter Program

Prince Williams a.k.a Bill Boiz
"To those who stop to chat with Prince Williams, out of curiosity, or admiration for his style, the narrative is always the same: The cane comes from the Ivory Coast, where his father was born, the son of an African king. His love of fashion came from his father, a diplomat in Paris who impressed upon his son the importance of making an elegant first impression. Age 50-something, he's a longtime designer for private customers, now working on his first collection.
Prince Williams's business card names him as Bill Boiz, and has a '30s-style illustration of a man in coat and tails; the business, it reads, is located in Suite 329 at an address in Times Square."

An accident is defined as an unplanned, unexpected, and undesigned (not purposefully caused) event which occurs suddenly and causes injury or loss, a decrease in value of the resources, or an increase in liabilities.
While this general definition holds, it is also acknowledged by experts that most accidents, especially in developing countries are area a result of human error.
Yet there are motorists who go to the extreme to argue that accidents are so defined because they happen without one's volition. For them however careful a driver is on the road, when fate decides so, an accident will happen.
For them, there is little that human beings can do to prevent an accident. They do have a point though, for indeed a number of accidents are beyond human control, but it is also true that better tools and designs are being developed daily to lower the rate of such accidents.
But we are talking of the general daily happenings on our roads, seas whose prevention could be achieved if awareness campaigns are mounted as well as better monitoring of behaviour of motorists.
For according to researchers, at least over 80 per cent of accidents are caused by human omission or commission and are thus preventable.
According to Traffic Police reports, road accidents claimed the lives of 3,582 people last year while more than 20,000 were injured with pedestrians and cyclists being the most affected.
More than 1,690 pedestrians were killed, while over 1,005 passengers also perished in bus accidents.
It is against this background that we take note of the move by some members of society who have noted some of the risky things motorists do while on the steering wheel which literally 'invite' accidents and decided to spearhead a campaign against them.
The Rotary Club of Dar es Salaam has teamed with the police to campaign against driving while on the mobile phone or texting.
The campaign runs under the slogan: 'Driving + Phone = Death.
The president of the Rotary Club Sharmila Bhatt said the aim was to create awareness against what are slowly becoming a chronic problem and a danger to lives of motorists countrywide.
She pointed out that a driver talking on a mobile phone is four times more likely to get into an accident, while the one who would be texting was eight times more likely to get into an accident.
Indeed we see a lot more risky acts by motorists, motorcyclists, cyclists and pedestrians which invite accidents to happen such as motorcycle riders overtaking in the wrong side of the lane, pedestrians running across a highway without checking how traffic was flowing.
Most motorcyclists carrying passengers seem to have ignored the police directive requiring them to wear helmets to protect them in case of accidents.
For us, the awareness campaign needs to be a continuous exercise, of course supported by stakeholders. What is more enforcement of the law against violations needs to be stiffer to instill discipline to those who wantonly 'invite' accidents for themselves and other road users.

Time-lapse video of Heathrow Airport creating huge Union flag on runway for Diamond Jubilee
13:06 28 May 2012
Watch a time-lapse video of a huge Union flag being painted on to one of Heathrow Airport's runways to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee.
The giant 540 square metre flag features a silhouette of the Queen.
The artwork measures 30 metres in length - 10 metres taller than Buckingham Palace and three times the width of an A380's fuselage - and is the first time ever an image has been painted on the airfield.
The patriotic emblem was created using more than 400 litres of red, white and blue paint.
It has been positioned adjacent to the northern runway so passengers can spot it from their flights.
The flag will give the 780,000 passengers expected to arrive for the Diamond Jubilee celebrations a Great British welcome to the UK.
Meanwhile, passengers arriving at Heathrow over the next week will be treated to a royal welcome with red carpets laid in arrivals halls in all terminals.
Diamond Jubilee and Union flags will be handed out and visitors will be invited to write messages of congratulations to the Queen in official books that will be sent to Buckingham Palace.
John Holland-Kaye, Heathrow commercial director, said: "The Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations mark the start of an important and historic summer for Heathrow.
"As the UK's hub airport, we are delighted to welcome thousands of visitors to Heathrow to celebrate this momentous national occasion."

Even McKayla Maroney was impressed.
A photo of the Olympic gold medalist gymnast and President Barack Obama doing Maroney's now-famous "McKayla Maroney is not impressed" face went viral Saturday after the White House posted it on Twitter. The two took the photo Thursday when Maroney and her Fierce Five teammates visited the White House.
Maroney says she "freaked out" when Obama asked her about the face and told her he makes it once a day. Maroney was photographed with a half-scowl that looks to be part annoyance, part disappointment after winning a silver medal on vault at the London Olympics, and it quickly spawned dozens of "McKayla Maroney is Not Impressed" memes.

JEM No, last month's announcement that G.I. Joe Retaliation helmer Jon M. Chu is planning to direct a live-action reinvention of the '80s cartoon Jem and the Holograms was not an early April Fool's joke, nor was the request for fans of the original to send submission videos to JemTheMovie.com. To prove he is serious about bringing back the often-overlooked '80s cartoon character, Chu released an update video to introduce some of the dedicated production people behind the movie and to share some of the "amazing" and "hilarious" submissions they received. He also revealed that the movie is actually going to begin shooting in three weeks' time so if you submitted a video and Chu liked it, expect a call any day now.
CASTING With Star Wars: Episode VII expected to begin filming in little over a month, many of the casting decisions must have already been made or are, at least, in the final stages of negotiations. One of the hottest roles in the movie has to be that of the young Jedi that will be the Luke Skywalker equivalent in the new trilogy, a role that Jesse Plemons (The Master) was supposedly vying for with a half-dozen other young male actors. If the latest casting rumor shakes out to be true, Plemons will not be playing the Jedi as he will be busy filming another movie.
According to THR, Plemons is in talks to join Johnny Depp in Black Mass, a loose adaptation of the best-seller Black Mass: The True Story of an Unholy Alliance Between the FBI and the Irish Mob to be directed by Scott Cooper (Crazy Heart). Depp will play notorious criminal mastermind, while Plemons would play Bulger's "blue-collar tough guy" friend. What does any of this have to do with Star Wars? Black Mass will begin shooting in early May in Boston, roughly the same time that Episode VII will begin shooting overseas, which would rule out Plemons for the coveted Jedi role.
Critical darling and busy, busy actress Juno Temple, who will next be seen opposite Angelina Jolie in Maleficent and in Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, is also in talks to join Black Mass, reports THR. Temple would play a prostitute who threatens to rat on Bulger.
EFRON Yet another novel by prolific author John Grisham will make the leap to the big screen. According to THR, Zac Efron (The Lucky One) will produce and star in an adaptation of Grisham's 2009 legal thriller The Associate. Efron will produce through his Ninja's Runnin Wild (That Awkward Moment) with Divergent producers Doug Wick and Lucy Fisher. A writer is currently being sought to adapt the novel. Here's the synopsis of the novel, courtesy of Amazon:
Kyle McAvoy possesses an outstanding legal mind. Good-looking and affable, he has a glittering future. He also has a dark secret that could destroy his dreams, his career, even his life. One night that secret catches up with him. The men who accost Kyle have a compromising video they'll use to ruin him — unless he does exactly what they say. What they offer Kyle is something any ambitious young lawyer would kill for: a job in Manhattan as an associate at the world's largest law firm. If Kyle accepts, he'll be on the fast track to partnership and a fortune. But there's a catch. Kyle won't be working for the firm but against it in a dispute between two powerful defense contractors worth billions. Now Kyle is caught between the criminal forces manipulating him, the FBI, and his own law firm — in a malignant conspiracy not even Kyle with all his intellect, cunning, and bravery may be able to escape alive.
WHAT IF? Acclaimed director Darren Aronofsky is flying high right now, with his latest movie, Noah, topping the box office with a $43.7 million debut. Though Noah is a movie he has been pursuing for years, Aronofsky revealed in a recent interview with MTV that he "absolutely" would have taken the job directing Man of Steel instead, had Warner Bros. offered him the gig.
Superman's one of the holy grails. It's Superman. It's the best superhero. Batman is great, of course, but it's Superman. He's the same level. That possibility was great.
Showing what a classy guy he is, Aronofsky gave props to director Zack Snyder, saying that he was "a great choice" to direct Man of Steel and adding that "as a fan of the comic, you couldn't hope for a better interpretation."
B-DAY Just because a guy was born a mutant master of magnetism with plans to dominate the world that doesn't mean that there's no cause to celebrate his birthday, as evidenced by the awesome tweet below, sent out to Michael Fassbender on Wednesday in celebration of his 37th birthday. It's actually a treat for us fans as it offers a highly detailed look at Fassbender's new Magneto armor from X-Men: Days of Future Past, which opens May 23rd.

Some athletes, notably premier league soccer club players, have been airing complaints based on what they say are inconsistencies in the payment of money rightly due to them for duties performed.
In fact, some clubs are known to have been suppressing internal boycotts fuelled by irregular payment of what they owe players, coaches and whatever other eligible officials.
Very strangely, even supposedly wealthy and otherwise well positioned clubs in existence for decades have not been spared the disgrace resulting from the awkward situation.
These are cases of clubs and sports organisations undermining the rights of athletes whose sweat and toil contributes to the bodies' very own progress and prestige, and the result is demoralisation precipitating a decline in performance standards.
There are numerous times when pledges club officials have been honoured only after damaging revelations in the media.
It's hard to believe that all this is due to bad luck. Rather, we get the impression that the respective officials simply renege on their responsibilities only to find that they sabotage the clubs or associations they are expected or supposed to lead.
Delaying payment of the dues of athletes who have performed their duties to satisfaction is a recipe for disastrous go-slows and even worse behaviour and practices, and top-flight sports clubs like Simba or Young Africans (for soccer) should stand as icons to the rest in the country.
Some club officials are fond of rushing to the media to plead their innocence whenever players, coaches or some other officials protest payment delays, only to secretly meet the demands mainly in a bid to ensure the situation does not degenerate into a scandal!
Recent cases of some of our soccer clubs refusing or failing to honour their contracts with foreign coaches are but the tip of an iceberg. Several others have found themselves performing poorly chiefly owing to loss of morale among players and officials – even when the financial position is reasonably healthy.
It is on record that Twiga Stars almost gifted the Namibian counterparts a walkover from the African Women Soccer Championship some two months ago simply there was no money to buy air tickets for the team to fly to Windhoek and back!
Ironically, we have yet to hear any officials from any of our sports clubs or organisations – except coaches, that is – complaining that their salaries, allowances, etc., have been delayed. The reason is that there are just no such delays!
Clubs and sports organisation officials must move with greater diligence in honouring commitments relating to payments to players and coaches.
Players and members of the technical bench are precious and their contributions must be respected through appropriate compensation, at least in the form of payment of dues at agreed terms. After all, they too are humans who need to feed themselves and their families as well as meet various other obligations.
Delaying their payments is cruel and unacceptable, and officials must refrain from this habit if athletes and coaches are to reciprocate through quality performance. It's upon bodies like the Tanzania Football Federation to think of ways to legally ensure that justice is done and seen to be done.

Soldiers at Fort Gordon remembered a fellow soldier and friend today.
There was a memorial this morning for Sergeant Marques Allen of the 345th Military Intelligence Battalion.
He was killed in a motorcycle wreck last week on River Watch Parkway.
Those who knew and served with him say there aren't enough words to describe the type of human being the young soldier was.
"There's just not enough words to describe the type of soldier, friend, what type of NCO he was," says SFC Micheal Trembley.
Sgt. Allen, a native of Louisiana, was a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
He was 22 years old.
Deputies say Allen was thrown off his bike after hitting a guardrail, and that speed is often a factor in wrecks along River Watch Parkway.

Hi, I'm sixteen and about four months ago I was treated at the hospital for severe anemia due to over excessive menstruation. While I was there, I had to have a pelvic exam done, and I'm already really shy, and I've never been touched like that or even have had a boyfriend. So the doctor (who was a man) was about to do it, but I was so scared he had to physically spread my legs apart. Then he put the speculum in and did whatever, but he had to push through the hymen, and it hurt pretty badly. It seemed like he didn't care at all how I was doing, or anything. Now I cringe when people mention sex or anything like it because it reminds me of him and the pain and embarrassment. How am I ever going to trust a man enough again to let him get close, and how can I block this event out of my head?

Seth MacFarlane
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
"My teeth are whiter than yours, bitch. And I wrote this article! No I don't have Ass Burgers! Baba booey!"
"I WILL find you, and when I do, I will kill you."
"Room for a quote from me?"
"Fuck you then."
Seth MacFarlane (born October 26, 1973) is an American cartoonist, singer, writer, producer, voice actor, Hollywood liberal and director best known for creating the animated sitcoms Family Guy, Family Guy Lite and Family Guy Dark. Seth is famous for his bizarrely deep voice, fondness for hair gel, and his unique blend of humor, in which the use of jokes is eschewed in exchange for numerous cut-away gags. Like that time I locked Nicholas Cage in a cage!
Nicholas Cage (Voiced by Seth): Dude! Let me out of this friggin cage!
Peter: Nuh-uh! not until, you get your face off!
Nicholas Cage: What? That was just a movie! Bruckheimer wrote it and asked me to star in it!
Peter: Do it or so help me god, I WILL LEAVE YOU HERE FOREVER! MUAHAHAHAA!
Nicholas: Alright, alright.
[Nicholas pulls his face off, revealing John Travolta.]
John Travolta (Voiced by Seth): Hey, what's happenin', Peter?
Peter: Hahahahahahaha.
MacFarlane, was born on October 26, 1973, in Kent, Connecticut. He was the bastard child of some white guy and a Vietnamese prostitute, which resembles the way Gilbert Gottfried came into this world. Shortly after birth, his father placed Seth near the Housatonic River before it flooded, expecting Seth's death to ensue. However, several miles down, MacFarlane was picked up by a wolf mother who had recently lost her cubs. MacFarlane was raised to maturity and learned everything he knew about comedy from this wolf mother. We really know nothing about this wolf mother. It sounds like another generic story of every major Hollywood star with an Oedipal complex. It's either that, or his parents placed him in front of the TV since he was one.
MacFarlane began smoking cigarettes as a small child, so that his deep voice would disguise the fact that he was born without testicles like most Asian men. Like many illiterate, anti-social children, Seth was drawn to cartooning, and when he was 8 years old he began illustrating his own cartoon strip Relative Dude which starred a middle-aged, foolish New England man, and an intellectual dog. Due to a bizarre baking accident, this idea was literally burned into McFarlane's brain, and he was unable, or at least couldn't be bothered, to come up with another idea for the rest of his life. Like that time I did heroin with Short Round from Indiana Jones!
Peter: Ok, it's my turn to shoot.
Short Round (voiced by Seth): Hey! Hey! No Mistah Gwiffin, dis is my turn to shoot up! You big fat Liah!
Peter: Hey take it easy little fellah.
Short Round: No! No! Dis is bulls***!
Peter: Hey, don't you take that tone with me young man!
Short Round: Hey I f*** you up big time man!
(Short Round leaves)
Peter: Well, I guess that was a short round Hahahahahahahahaha.
Opinions and Stances, by Cartman of South Park
Seth is an active supporter of MacFarlanism, which is the belief that God doesn't exist and if you believe otherwise, you deserve to be crucified, or at least exiled to Las Vegas to fight in a deathmatch with Jesus freaks. According to the scriptures of MacFarlanism, the only person who should be worshiped is Seth MacFarlane, since (as he claims) he is ruler of all that exists which revolve around the center of his universe.
Seth also believes his "amazing talent to do anything" makes him incomparable to other human beings. Since he is almighty and everlasting he sees no point in "socializing with puny mortals." As he has stated on many occasions, "If I could have sex with myself, I would." This has led many to believe he doesn't like anybody if they aren't Seth MacFarlane.
His enormous dislike for conservatives, liberals, black people, poor people, middle-class people, upper-class people, fat people, skinny people, anybody who isn't as rich as him, puppies, innocence, anybody who isn't him, babies, kittens, reality, Christians, mortals, and so on makes him the most hateful "all-powerful force" on the face of the planet, or at least, a Hollywood atheist.
His die-hard liberal beliefs make him the "ultimate Democrat."[1] This position of power gives him the authority to kill Republicans or anybody with any kind of conservative beliefs by any means he wishes (though his favorite way of killing is by eating his victims alive). As an active supporter of Obama, he has set out to "remove" anybody who didn't vote for him. His opinions of Obama now are, as he states, "So what if he hasn't done anything he promised to do and the only things he has done play significant roles into the deconstruction of the United States? Like most other Democrats, I hate America and I would suicide-bomb the living crap out of anyone who thinks differently! God damn capitalists, they deserve to die!"
Like most Democrats in Hollywood, he preaches tolerance, open-mindedness, and acceptance; but when it comes to people who don't believe everything he does he shows absolute hatred towards them for being "insignificant imbeciles." When asked about the hypocrisy in his messages Seth angrily replied, "Fuck your mother!" and then stormed off and masturbated to pictures of himself in his dressing room.
Early Career
After qualifying from the Rhode Island School of Design, Seth went on to work for Cartoon Network, where he created a pilot episode for his very own cartoon. It was considered too shit[2] for mainstream television and Seth was forced to spend the next few years locked in a tiny hot room, drawing individual frames for Johnny Bravo at Hanna-Barbara. Like that time he included that unnecessary big band song for no reason other than to show off on his own television special about himself, and not Family Guy:
Hey - look - it's - me, - Seth McFarley!
I've - got - a - brilliant - voice! - Yeah!
So, - you've - really - got - no - choice! Yeah!
But - to - admi-i-i-i-i-re!
My Brilliant' (Brilliant)
Brilliant' (Brilliant)
Bri-i-i-i-i-i--i-i-liant vooiiicee, YEAH!
TV Shows
Family Guy
Seth left Cartoon Network after he discovered that infants were far too intelligent to enjoy his work. Fox however were very impressed by his cut-away dynamic. The show featured a middle aged, foolish New England man, and an intellectual dog. Seth threw in a bunch of other characters, like a talking baby named Stewie. It was canceled twelve times before finally ending in 2003.
Two years later, Family Guy was brought back, and there was much rejoicing...until people witnesses the new episodes and believed the show had gone downhill. However, many fail to realize that Family Guy was always a patchwork of cultural references appealing to frat boys who are indeed aware of the 1980s transpiring in some way, just like Saturday Night Live does to your brain.
That didn't stop it from pulling in ratings, making Seth billions, and paving the way for a Family Guy soundtrack, and multiple Family Guy movies, like that one where Peter discovers the lost city of Atlantis...
Peter: So, this is Atlantis, huh?
Brian: Yep, this is it!
Peter: Are there any black people to rape?
Brian: Peter, I... What?
Peter: Look out! A monkey!
A monkey jumps out of a tree and beats Brian with a stick
So far, there have been only three Family Guy movies. The first movie is about Stewie going into the future to learn that he's gay. The second movie was a carbon copy of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. The third film is a carbon copy of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. MacFarlane plans on making a carbon copy of the sixth movie, all the Indiana Jones films, and a movie about abortion, but says that he simply doesn't have the time at the moment, considering he has to swim through piles of money ever day, like Scrooge McDuck.
A theatrical Family Guy film is planned for sometime in the near future, which will be followed by Family Guy On Ice. Seth is also planning to film a documentary on himself to showcase the tools that work for him and help to stroke his over-inflated ego on a daily basis, and help to raise awareness on vocal yeast infections when brushing teeth with Vagisil due to all of the queefing that takes place inside of his mouth. One can only wait and hope that these new upcoming projects will contain his rarely used references to the 1980's.
American Dad
After Family Guy was canceled, Fox realizing they made a huge mistake, called Seth up and offered him a buttload of money in exchange for a new show. Seth agreed and quickly
ripped off Family Guy created a brand new show based on his old one. However, Fox decided to renew Family Guy as well. At this point Seth started focusing all his energy strictly on Family Guy, while leaving the show in the hands of a bunch of amateur fanfic writers. Eventually he stopped showing up for work at all, which strangely enough, lead to an increase in the overall quality of American Dad.
The Cleveland Show
Seth went to Fox executives and said "I want another show." Because of the odd success of Family Guy and American Dad, Fox told him "As long as it's nothing new, or original." Then he told them "Don't worry. It'll be a carbon-copy of Family Guy - but with a bunch of black people." So then Fox execs commenced licking the inside of his rectum and greenlit him for two seasons.
Untitled Fourth Show
Seth MacFarlane went to Fox one day and told them, "Hey, you douches, I heard that The Simpsons is still on. You'd better give me a new show or I'll bother you all day by doing my Robin Williams impression!" Fox agreed and greenlit another new show.
This one however is going to be completely different than his last three shows. This one will star a family, and pets (which will most likely talk), but instead of a dumb dad being the main character, it's going to be a dumb woman! The show is set to use the same animation style as Family Guy, as well as have a similar sense of humor to it which mean it will have no humor whatsoever.[3]
The Winner
The Winner was a live action comedy. Though MacFarlane didn't create it,
he pretty much took credit for everything that went right with it (and shifted the blame to the show's creator and Family Guy writer, Ricky Blitt).
The show's premise was taken directly from the movie The Forty Year Old Virgin, except that it took place in 1994, so that the characters could make a bunch of '90s jokes, instead of '80s ones. The show suffered from negative reviews, with some reviewers stating the show was; "dreadful", "obnoxious", "less fun to watch than a cat being strangled." Seth MacFarlane responded to the negative reviews by claiming the "[Critics] are worse than Hitler! They're literally terrible human beings!"
Seth was later heard saying, "I think we might actually make it past six episodes!" until it was cancelled post haste.
Seth and Alex's Almost Funny Comedy Show
Up Late With Stewie and Brian
Stewie has his own talk show, and guess who's coming! That's right, it's that guy no-one knows from that Seth MacFarlane show that bombed worse than Hiroshima (Oh, come on, you just know that's a joke Seth would make)! The show lasted only one episode, and was made using Flash animation, which is ironic considering Seth's view on Flash in general.[4] Like that time I tried to get Avril Lavigne to explain her lyrics to me.
Avril Lavigne (voiced by Seth): He was a boy, she was a girl, can I get any more obvious?
Peter: Umm, yeah, actually I think you could.
Avril Lavigne: Umm . . . He had a penis . . . she had a vagina?
Peter: Still not quite sure what you're trying to say here.
Avril Lavigne: He wanted to bone her . . . she wanted to bang him?
Peter: Oh. I think I get what you're saying there.
Avril Lavigne: He was a punk, she did ballet, what more can I say?
Peter: See, I think you could say a lot more. You lost me again.
Avril Lavigne: Seriously?
Peter: Yeah. These lyrics are pretty vague.
Seth MacFarlane's first film is a $65 million production, about a man, and his talking teddy bear! The movie is going to be "hard R", and is being produced by Universal Studios[5],
because let's face it... even Fox wasn't stupid enough to spend sixty five million dollars on Chipmunks for Grownups.
Seth will be writing, directing, and to no one's surprise... starring in it. Seth will be playing Ted, the talking teddy bear, who will be brought to life using CGI technology... yeah. According to Seth, there has never,[6] ever,[7] been anything like it.
Seth already has plans for a sequel, simply entitled: Ted 2: I Can't Bearlieve It's The Sequel!.
- ↑ Redneck interpretation of events more paranoid than Alex Jones on Xanax
- ↑ Hollywood-speak for "unfunny shit, needs more preppy douchebags from Harvard Lampoon to write your bits"
- ↑ Seth's new show!
- ↑ Seth MacFarlane thinks his show looks good, and Flash is ugly!
- ↑ Get it? Ted! 'Cause he's a Teddy Bear! HAHAHA! God, I'm so clever!
- ↑ Completely Original.
- ↑ Yep, completely original...

Western European broadleaf forests
Bec d'Allier and Loire, France Photograph by © WWF-Canon/Hartmut Jungius
The Western European broadleaf forests ecoregion comprises approximately 190,100 square miles, covering most of eastern France, southern Germany, northern Switzerland, northern Austria, a portion of the Czech Republic and a small element of western Poland; it is classified within the biome of Temperate Broadleaf and Mixed Forests.
The ecoregion has been heavily degraded and transformed, beginning in the early Holocene, chiefly by the expanding human population and corresponding large scale conversion of natural habitat to agricultural use. Presently the extant fauna of the ecoregion manifests a low rate of endemism.
Location and general description
The Western European broadleaf forests spans most of eastern France, the extreme east of Belgium, southern Germany, northern Switzerland, northern Austria, a portion of the Czech Republic and a small element of western Poland. The ecoregion has no portion which is tangent to a marine body. The ecoregion covers extensive lowlands, but also areas of higher elevation such as the Alps and the Ardennes. The protected area of the Haute Fagnes in the Ardennes extends between Eupen in the north, Monschau in the east, Spa in the west and Malmedy in the south.
The Rhône-Alpes are situated in the east of France. The central part of the Rhone Alps region comprises the river valleys of the Rhône and the Saône. The confluence of these two rivers is at Lyon. The western part of the region contains the start of the Massif Central mountain range. The region also borders or contains notable lakes such as Lake Geneva and Lake Annecy. The Ardèche River flows through the southwest portion of the Rhone Alps, having carved the deepest gorge in Europe.
The Hautes Vosges Mountains, extends from Belfort to the valley of the Bruche. The rounded summits of the Hautes Vosges are termed ballons in French. The Sandstoned Vosges lie between the Permian Basin of Saint-Die and include the Devon-Dinantian volcanic massif of Schirmeck-Moyenmoutier and the Col de Saverne the Lower Vosges, between the Col de Saverne and the headwaters of the Lauter.

Vegetative assemblies
The ecoregion has a variety of plant assemblies, ranging from true broadleaf forests, to raised bogs and moorlands, although most of the land area has, after all, been converted to agriculture. Typical dominant trees are Quercus robur, beech and birch.
The Haute Fagnes (or High Fens) is a protected area of the Ardennes in eastern Belgium, having considerable topographic relief, consisting chiefly of peat bogs, and low wood-covered hills, moorland and forest.
Much of the Swiss Alps are technicall within the ecoregion, but a considerable portion of this alpine area is above the timberline and has little significant forested area.
There are a total of 379 distinct vertebrate taxa that have been identified within the ecoregion, although faunal endemism is low. Special status, but non-endemic, mammals in the Western European broadleaf forests are the:
- Near Threatened Alpine shrew (Sorex alpinus);
- Vulnerable Pyrenean desman (Galemys pyrenaicus);
- Vulnerable Mehely's horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus mehelyi);
- Near Threatened Pond bat (Myotis bechsteini);
- Near Threatened Schreiber's long-fingered bat (Miniopterus schreibersi);
- Near Threatened Bechstein's bat (Myotis bechsteini);
- Near Threatened Horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus euryale);
- Vulnerable European suslik (Spermophilus citellus);
- Vulnerable Southwestern water vole (Arvicola sapidus);
- Endangered European mink (Mustela lutreola);
- Near Threatened European otter (Lutra lutra);
- Near Threatened Western barbastelle (Barbastella barbastellus);
- Near Threatened European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus);
- Near Threatened Garden dormouse (Eliomys quercinus);
- Near Threatened Greater noctule bat (Nyctalus lasiopterus); and
- the Vulnerable Long-fingered bat (Myotis capaccinii).
Alpine newt. Source: Christian R. Linder Amphibians in the Western European broadleaf forests are represented by the:
- Common European toad (Bufo bufo);
- Parsley frog (Pelodytes punctatus);
- Coruna frog (Pelophylax perezi);
- Edible frog (Pelophylax esculentus)
- Moor Frog (Rana arvalis)
- Pool frog (Pelophylax lessonae)
- European common frog (Rana temporaria)
- European treefrog (Hyla arborea)
- Mediterranean treefrog (Hyla meridionalis)
- Yellow-bellied toad (Bombina variegata)
- Fire-bellied toad (Bombina bombina)
- Natterjack toad (Epidalea calamita);
- Olive midwife toad (Alytes obstetricans)
- Lake frog (Pelophylax ridibunda);
- Spring frog (Rana dalmatina);
- European fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra);
- Crested newt (Triturus cristatus);
- Smooth newt (Lissotriton vulgaris);
- Palmate newt (Triturus helveticus)
- Alpine newt (Ichthyosaura alpestris); and,
- the Marbled newt (Triturus marmoratus).
Special status non-endemic reptiles of the ecoregion are the Near Threatened European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis) and the Lower Risk Grass snake (Natrix natrix).
Special status, but non-endemic, birds found in the ecoregion are the Near Threatened Dartford warbler (Sylvia undata), The Near Threatened Eurasian curlew (Numenius arquata), the Near Threatened Ferruginous duck (Aythya nyroca), the Vulnerable Saker falcon (Falco cherug), the Vulnerable Great bustard (Otis tarda), the Greater spotted eagle (Aquila clanga), the Near Threatened Little bustard (Tetrax tetrax) and the Near Threatened Red kite (Milvus milvus).
Current status
The conservation status of the Western European broadleaf forests is classified as Critical/Endangered by the World Wildlife Fund, although the ecoregion has not been accorded a G200 designation, implying that this unit is not deserving of the highest priority for conservation, viewed on a worldwide basis.
Types and severity of threats
The greatest threat is the ongoing land conversion to agriculture, which land use change has been accelerating over the entire Holocene, in response to the human population explosion, the effects of which may have reached their maximum velocity of land cover change during the late Medieval to Industrial Revolution era. The Alps represent the greatest refugium opportunity, since such terrain has minimized the opportunity for agriculture and urbanization.
Protected areas
Parc Naturel Haute Fagnes. Source: Creative Commons Protected areas in the Western European broadleaf forests include: the Sumava National Park of the Czech Republic, which has the most extensive forest cover in central Europe as well as the largest lynx population; the Parc Naturel Haute Fagnes in the Ardennes region of eastern Belgium; the Bavarian Forest National Park in southeastern Germany, which has important raised bog habitat;
The ecoregion encompasses the earliest location where recorded artworks are extant from Homo sapiens. These cave dwellers inhabited locations such as the Chauvet Cave in eastern France within the Rhone Alps, where well preserved cave paintings date to circa 35,000 to 30,000 years before present.
Justification of ecoregion delineation
This ecoregion is equivalent to the DMEER (2000) unit of the same name and reflects the influence of climatic data during the DMEER delineation process. It predominantly includes lowland to altimontane beech and mixed beech forests of Western Europe (with the exception of the beech and mixed beech forests of the Alps) in the Central Massif, Jura, Central German Uplands, Bavarian Plateau, and Bohemian Massive. It also includes small areas of sub-Mediterranean and meso-supra-Mediterranean downy oak forests and mixed oak hornbeam forests (Bohn et al. 2000).

There's nothing like a sunset.
And while I maintain prairie sunsets are the most magical I've ever seen — ribbons of red and pink and purple and orange fill the sky, and when those colours inhabit the puffy clouds floating in the heavens, why, it's simply enchanting — there's also something special about seeing the sun sink into the ocean.

The Treasured Tools of the Sage of the Six Paths (六道仙人の宝具, Rikudō Sennin no Hōgu) are a set of powerful tools, said to have once been wielded by the Sage of the Six Paths himself. They are considered the most powerful ninja tools.[1] Each of these items demonstrates unusual and distinctive abilities, however, their usage consumes an enormous amount of chakra, so much so that a normal human could die if they used them. These five treasures were eventually gathered together by Kumogakure where they came into the possession of the Gold and Silver Brothers. As the siblings possessed immense chakra reserves and then later became imbued with a small amount of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's chakra, they were capable of wielding the treasures without fatal repercussions.
The brothers used their respective treasures both extensively and proficiently, even using them on one occasion to ambush the Second Hokage and Second Raikage simultaneously, resulting in Tobirama being left on the verge of death at the conclusion of the confrontation.[1] This circumstance was apparently achieved by utilising the treasures effectively in conjunction with one another, typically in order to place the siblings' opponents under a combination curse and sealing technique, which would see the permanent imprisonment of the victim if they were to repeat the word they spoke most frequently during their life, as long as a number of prerequisites are first met.
Kumogakure managed to retrieve one treasure from the brothers, and the Third Raikage used it to seal the Eight-Tails when it escaped from its jinchūriki.[2] Later, Darui used it against the reincarnated Kinkaku during the Fourth Great Shinobi World War.[3] Near the end of the first day of the war, Tobi came and took the Benihisago and Kohaku no Jōhei in order to make use of the captive brothers within for his Eye of the Moon Plan.[4] Tenten retrieved the Bashōsen from the battlefield and used it to destroy at least one of Kakuzu's masks.[5] Tobi later had the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path swallow the Benihisago and Kohaku no Jōhei to complete the Ten-Tails.[6][7]
- Bashōsen (芭蕉扇, Literally meaning: Banana Palm Fan)
- Benihisago (紅葫蘆, Literally meaning: Crimson Gourd)
- Kohaku no Jōhei (琥珀の浄瓶, Literally meaning: Amber Purifying Pot)
- Kōkinjō (幌金縄, Literally meaning: Golden Canopy Rope)
- Shichiseiken (七星剣, Literally meaning: Seven Star Sword)
- The Treasured Tools are based on tools from the Chinese classic "Journey to the West". In this story; there are two demon king brothers, known as the Great King Kinkaku (金角大王, Kinkaku-daiō) and the Great King Ginkaku (銀角大王, Ginkaku-daiō), who live in the Lotus Cave (蓮華洞, Rengedō) on Mt Heichō (平頂山, Heichōzan). They possess five treasured tools, called the Amber Purifying Pot (琥珀の浄瓶, Kohaku no Jōhei), the Seven Star Sword (七星剣, Shichiseiken), the Banana Palm Fan (芭蕉扇, Bashōsen) the Golden Canopy Rope (幌金縄, Kōkinjō), and the Crimson Gourd (紅葫蘆, Benihisago). Amongst these, the pot and the gourd are capable of sucking in their opponents and melting them, once they are trapped within.

Hey there.
I just thought I should say hello to the Guild. I've been lurking on here for quite some time, but I have finally decided that it is about time to step out of the shadows and share whatever I have to share with fellow cartography enthusiasts.
So, a little about me... My name's Arkadiusz, I'm 20 years of age. Currently residing on a small rock in the middle of nowhere, known commonly as Iceland, but I'm originally from Poland. I don't really have any sort of experience in cartography, but I do enjoy conworlding and I have recently made a map of a world I constructed. It can be found right here: Voseria.
That'd be all for now.
Thank you for your attention.

May 2, 2016
Some North Carolina legislators want to require applicants for North Carolina's cash and worker training welfare program to undergo drug tests to qualify and pay for it themselves.
The Senate agreed 35-15 Monday night to a bill that would demand testing for applicants and recipients for the state's Work First program.
Those who pass the screening would be reimbursed in future assistance payments. Those who fail could reapply in a year after completing a treatment program at their own expense and passing a test.
Bill co-sponsor Sen. Ralph Hise of Mitchell County says illegal drugs are a scourge and it's not right to give public cash payments to those who abuse drugs.
Democrats call the bill unconstitutional and say applicants already are being assessed.
The measure goes to the House.
