Region: Lands End
Hi there! Welcome to our region, please don't hesitate to ask any questions that you might have. :)
VOTING RECOMMENDATION
The Central Strategic Committee Defense Office recommends that citizens vote AGAINST the current GA proposal, "Repeal: Data Protection Accord".
1. Sentence 2 of the repeal states that "Section 2, Clause B, violates the sovereignty of member states in limiting their ability to conduct searches and monitoring," while ignoring the fact that the resolution in question states that "organizations" mentioned in Section 2, Clause B do not include governments and specifically exclude them.
2. Sentence 3, stating that "Section 3, Clause B, is often impractical for businesses to do", while possibly true, does not create sufficient grounds for a repeal.
3. Sentence 4, stating that "Section 3, Clause C, is impractical in dealing with disciplinary actions that occurs after the data is removed once the user ceases to be a member of the organization", implying that the protection of unneeded user information is "impractical" instead of "necessary".
4. Sentence 5, stating that "Section 3, Clause G, is vague in terms of what measures is considered 'reasonable'", is hypocritical, considering the previous sentence's criticism of the "impractical" yet precise wording of Section 3, Clause C, and should not be considered grounds for repeal.
Again, the Defense Office suggests that residents vote AGAINST.
Please direct all questions or concerns to the CSC Defense Officer, [nation=long]new jaedonstan[/nation]

Unnecessary, they know where we stand, but we have to let them do their job or we get yelled at.

As far as I understand it, the LE Board voted against pinning my recommendations, not me making them.
Bonnie Blue Republic, New Slovakastan, The Democracy Of Red Star, Emiline
Greetings again, I wont be online on this for a long time so if I miss anthing tell me when I'm back alright?
New Jaedonstan, Buryasia, The Democracy Of Red Star, Phorbus
Accidentally bumped the suppress button. Sorry about that.
The Democracy Of Red Star
What has taught you people to be so disrespectful to your fellow AA members? NJ, acting as the Defense Officer, is doing his work as assigned and it is within the best interest of the CSC towards the member regions of the Augustin Alliance. While I understand your board has decided they they want to be "Anti-WA" and resist any mere mention of the WA, it is unfair to your members and it is unfair to NJ that you have decided to be so rude about going about the whole situation. I am sure your region is full of big boys and girls who can choose what they want to pin, not pin, read, not read, without throwing a big tantrum about it and giving NJ such an unpleasant time.
Honestly I am dissapointed. You don't want to pin it? Fine, your choice. You don't want to act on it? Fine, your choice. If the board has decided that an entire component of the game and their region is a waste of time, then I guess the board can live with that. But NJ is more than welcome to give you his recommendation as that is all it is. It is not an order, it is not disrupting your regional affairs, it is just his recommendation to your region as he gives to every region. As long as you tell your people to join the WA then those people should be informed whether the board wants them to be or not.
If anyone has a problem with this they can gladly talk to me on discord otherwise stop being so rude to your Defense Officer, he is going to give his recommendation till I tell him otherwise and that's the end of it. At the end, you are all also AA members together. Stop treating each other like dirt all the time.
New Jaedonstan, The Democracy Of Red Star, Neu Deutschlandia
I've joined the region a little while ago with my new nation but just now decided become active upon getting a new flag.
Can anyone catch me up to speed on what's going on?? I'm concerned that I'm joining in a more tumultuous time but to be completely honest, I'm used to that.
The Democracy Of Red Star
I apologize for that, that was absolutely unnecessary and disrespectful to my fellow AA members. I was not intending on sparking drama, and I will delete said post. My apologies once again, that was improper and disrespectful.
I am willing to resign from my office as that was completely improper of me and as a member of the board, I am supposed to be one of the leaders of the region. And honestly, I would deserve to be booted off the board. That was a stupid thing for me to say, and I shouldnt have said that.
Once again, I apologize.
The Democracy Of Red Star
Ello Im the The Democracy Of Red Star RMB ambassador of Lands End, there is nothing to worry About. Not much has been happening recently its slow really.
South-Central Rhodesia, Lateness People
The situation was under control. While your comments are true, they were an unnecessary addition to the situation. The post was already suppressed and I addressed it accordingly. But thank you anyways Emi.

Youre not resigning. Calm down. Its been handled, Youre fine.
Tesdai, The Democracy Of Red Star, South-Central Rhodesia
Alright. On the recommendations:
I specifically told New Jaedonstan that he could post those on the RMB. I see nothing wrong with him advertising his personal recommendation. We aren't pinning them as the regional recommendation because the regional government doesn't agree with all of them.
I didn't tell Spokane that; that was entirely my fault. The Federation Of Spokane, sorry about that. Thanks for trying to do your job; sorry for failing to make sure you didn't have the requisite information about RMB advertisement.
Emiline We have our reasons for the WA recommendations and we have informed you, New Jaesonstan, and the entirety of the CSC about those reasons on multiple occasions. Next time you feel a need to yell at one of my officers about something, come to me. I'll take care of it. That is, after all, my job.

Bonnie, its alright! I should have checked with you or my ambassadors first before acting.
I once again am sorry for accidentally causing drama, that was not my intention.
Bonnie Blue Republic, The Democracy Of Red Star
can we take a minute to appreciate the comedic genius of Bonnie Blue Republic
truly a kind worthy WA Delegate

Whilst I have the time, I would like to publicly state all nations in Lands End have the right to their opinion and personal beliefs. No exceptions. Everyone has a say, everyone gets a say.

As an addendum to that, civility must be maintained.
You're welcome to express your beliefs, just please keep it civil.
The Democracy Of Red Star, The Federation Of Spokane, South-Central Rhodesia

Just waking up here in Australia to a beautifully cool, crisp day :) Hope everyone is having a great day!
The Democracy Of Red Star, The Federation Of Spokane, Senjougohara
Mine is just winding down. 8 hours of sci fi TV while I worked from home, followed by 4 hours of rewatching Downton Abbey when wife got home! So, yeah sure, a great day.
The Democracy Of Red Star, Legoa, The Federation Of Spokane, South-Central Rhodesia, Phorbus, Senjougohara
Sounds like a great day. What is your favorite Sci-Fi show?
Personally, I like police procedural shows such as Brooklyn 99, Law and Order: Special Victims and others of the Law and Order Brand, Chicago PD, and Criminal Minds.
The Democracy Of Red Star
I love Dr.who
Buryasia

I assume everyone is probably bored out of their minds right about now, since we cant go out or do anything except work (if youre essential). Id like to take the time to start a little contest for everyone. Lands End is missing something... a motto! I would like all (Yes, all 360 of you) to telegram me the best motto you can think of for Lands End. The best motto will be featured on the top of our World Factbook Entry! You all have until next Friday to submit your mottos. Have fun, or dont, I cant force you.

Ooh ooh ooh, Post them on the RMB too, I want to see them!
The Federation Of Spokane
congratulations you are a man of culture , brotherhood or original
All submitted mottos will be placed on a poll this coming Friday. There is no limit to the number of mottos you may submit (except the telegram limit, i guess).

Cant wait!

VOTING RECOMMENDATION
I cannot make a proper voting recommendation for the current at-vote proposal, Requiring Promogulation of National Laws. Citizens are encouraged to vote as they wish or as their World Assembly Delegate votes.
Buryasia, The Federation Of Spokane
So, an internet outage gave me a respite from rewatching soap operas, however, I got a little behind on this conversation. Lately I've been trying a new scifi show called Vagrant Queen. Serenity is still among my all-time favorites. Or for movies, I still love 2001 a Space Odyssey. I read the book 3001, which was, interesting. Another scifi book trilogy I've been into lately is the Mars trilogy by Kim Robinson. But as far as books go, I hear Providence by Max Barry is pretty great!
Legoa, The Federation Of Spokane, South-Central Rhodesia
Just watched castlevania and it was really good
I have watched brotherhood. My sibling refuses to let me watch the original by myself
Senjougohara
Some of you are probably wondering why I, the guy who detests the GA with almost every fiber of my being, is voting for the current proposal.
Well, basically, I know the guy who wrote it and I like him.
So I figured I'd throw some support his way.
Ya'll still feel free to vote however you please, just wanted to explain that real quick.
Tesdai, Buryasia, The Federation Of Spokane
Im a good old fashioned twilight zone kind of guy, but I get down with all kinds of shows. I never got too in to anime, but I will say neon genesis evangelion is really really cool. I recommend it actually.
Buryasia, The Federation Of Spokane
Maybe Ill try that one. I know there's some good anime & japanese shows in general, because I saw Akira. But there's so much to watch, hard to know which way to turn in that genre for me. Oh I've been feeling like I should have mentioned Legion - the 3 season show that came out about four years ago. It was fantastic.
The Federation Of Spokane
Our quote should be reap what you sow - It just makes sense for a capitalistic region that encourages individualism and self reliance
Tesdai, Buryasia, The Federation Of Spokane
Avatar the Last Airbender is on Netflix!!!
The Federation Of Spokane, Deims Kir, Saint Sharis
It should be impossible for a show to be that good
Legoa, The Federation Of Spokane
Yeah, Im going to have to stop you there:
What about
Disagreements are allowed! :P
The Democracy Of Red Star, South-Central Rhodesia
NO
The Democracy Of Red Star, The Federation Of Spokane, Bridge Port
You can disagree with it but lands end for the most part is a corporate body which embraces a capitalist message so idk I think it works
Buryasia, The Democracy Of Red Star, The Federation Of Spokane
Our quote should be Hey were doing fine here no communism needed!
(Lol)
South-Central Rhodesia, Bridge Port
Maybe it should be "Hey, when are we gonna stop being communist this April?"
Bridge Port
The Democracy Of Red Star, The Federation Of Spokane
Just teasing you man.
Thus brings home my point.
Ooo. What about The Land of Yearly Communist Overthrows?

VOTING RECOMMENDATION
The Augustin Alliance Defense Office suggests that residents vote FOR the at-vote GA proposal, Repeal "Ensuring Safe Syringe Use".
1. Section 1 points out a glaring flaw in the original legislation, showing that "syringe" should have been replaced with "needle", to ensure maximum safety and coverage, as well as allowing the legislation to make sense. That meaning, a syringe is not always used with a needle, but a needle is always used with a syringe. It would have been more fitting for the resolution to ensure safe needle use.
2. Section 2 points out the needless and random use of "OR" at the end of section 1, sentence a.
Again, the Defense Office recommends that residents vote FOR.
Please direct all questions to the CSC Defense Officer, [nation=noflag]new jaedonstan[/nation].

Official CTO Post
At this time, I believe I need to clear some things up about the Ambassador position.
Heplon is our Discord Ambassador, which means he helps me with communication to the board and keeps a eye on regional and alliance discord servers!
Red Star is our traditional ambassador, which means he helps me with finding regions to consider offering a embassy to and keeping an eye on the NS political landscape.
Hooseria is my AA/JTF coordinationator, which means he helps me coordinate our diplomatic response to the rest of the AA, or with inter-regional things.
I would like to give him quick props for how he handled the NJ situation, with a professional manner.
I have been recently receiving various requests for a chance to become a ambassador, and personally right now I would like to keep it to these three unless they get overwhelmed and they need a second ambassador to help them out.
They are very good, and some of the best of the best.

A british man, an american man, a french man, and a canadian man are asked to write an essay on the elephant.
The British man wrote about the elephant as a symbol of power, the american wrote about the elephant and its use in war, the french man wrote the elephant and it's love, the canadian wrote about the elephant and whether it was a federal or provincial issue.
