Imperial Eagle wrote:The Union will send several State and Defense Department officials to attend but we propose that instead of San Fernando being the meeting location, it instead be in Panama City, to show that such an organization is truly for all of the Americas by having the meeting and possible headquarters in a Central American city. Though the Union Army is currently still doing law enforcement until a new police force is formed, the city is safe to hold the meeting and is more than safe for a future headquarters and the branches of such a organization to be seated in.

President Andrew Collins accepts the proposal of changing it from San Fernando to Panama City and will be flying to Panama City.

Biological Nanobodies Attached to CRISPR Could Toggle Specific Genes On and Off

Researchers at New York Medical University have reported the genetic tool CRISPR has been likened to molecular scissors for its ability to snip out and replace genetic code within DNA.

But CRISPR has a capability that could make it useful beyond genetic repairs. "CRISPR can precisely locate specific genes," says Lacramioara Bintu, an assistant professor of bioengineering at Stanford, who is currently on loan to the university. "What we did was attach CRISPR to nanobodies to help it perform specific actions when it reached the right spot on DNA."

Her lab recently used this combo technique to transform CRISPR from a gene-editing scissors into a nanoscale control agent that can toggle specific genes on and off, like a light switch, to start or stop the flow of some health-related protein inside a cell.

"There are a lot of things you can't fix with scissors," Bintu says. The novel technique her team describes in the journal Nature Communications could enable researchers to explore new therapeutic applications in the field of epigenetics -- which is the study of how genes behave inside cells.

As Bintu explains, every cell in the human body has the same DNA -- a full complement of genes -- but not every gene is switched on in every cell. Some cells have certain genes on, telling the cell to produce specific proteins. Others have those genes turned off, but others turned on. Sometimes, as with genetic diseases, things go awry in this switching. The Bintu lab's new tool has the potential to correct those mistakes. The new tool is more complicated than scissors because ordinary CRISPR cannot turn genes on and off in a controlled manner without breaking the DNA. To make changes without harm to the DNA, CRISPR needs an assist from other large, complex proteins, known as "effectors." With the new combo tool, CRISPR finds the right gene, and the effector can flip the switch.

"But these effector molecules are usually too big to easily deliver into a cell for therapeutic use," says PhD student Mike Van, first author of the paper. Further complicating matters, several effectors are usually used in combination to efficiently regulate specific cell behaviors, making the CRISPR-effectors combo even bigger, hence harder to produce and deliver.

To get around this roadblock, Bintu's team turned to smaller proteins known as nanobodies. Nanobodies don't act as stand-ins for the effectors. Instead, they act like tiny hooks that snare the needed effectors that are already swimming about within the cell. Choose the right nanobody and it will recruit the right effector for the switching job.

The new technique could be used to correct epigenetic defects without the need to combine CRISPR to large effectors. "The cells already have these proteins," explains Bintu. "We thought: Why are we reattaching them- Let's use nanobodies to do that."

At this point the technique is at the proof-of-concept stage. The next step is for the team to sort through millions of potential nanobodies, and start figuring out how to attach them to CRISPR to target specific epigenetic breakdowns.

"We just came up with a method of testing hundreds of thousands at a time," says Bintu, who hopes to further develop the technique in future experiments.

All military vehicles will be scraped and recycled for materials, all of the refunded material will go to the recent high density residential project.

North Hellenes will form a new ministry, TNHM-PF, The North Hellenic Ministry of Police Force, which will from now on handle the police force instead of TNHM-ND.

Furthermore, North Hellenes is looking to buy waste or debris of any kind from The hellenes league. The bought waste and debris will be filtered into three categories, material to recycle, waste to be turned into fertilizer, and waste to burn. The waste to burn will be burnt in next generation incinerators, which will generate electricity for most of North Hellenes. State of the art air filters will ensure minimal pollution from this process.

Ministry of War

140 officers ranging from 2nd lieutenants to a 1 star General have agreed to renew their commissions with the Hellenic National Army.

They will work alongside Hellenic Officers in their respective ranks and classes on Hellenic Military standards and practices before they reach their final units they will be attached to.

Additionally, the Hellenic Air Force will be activating an air wing outside of Constanta at Mihail Kogălniceanu Airport. 1,200 Airmen will be attached to this air wing. F-16s will be part of the initial air wing but will be replaced by HAS-10 multi role fighters to ensure air superiority over the air space.

Other countermeasures such as anti-air will also be deployed to the airport, including a helicopter detachment as well.

As part of this move, Hermes Aerospace will be investing $5.5mn into the airport for renovations and general improvements, with another $10.5mn by the Ministry of War for housing, munition depots and other necessities to make this Air Base a reality. Expected timeline is 1 year (52 RL Days) until all renovations and construction is completed, with units moving in at Month 6 (26 RL days)

Carmaker Dongfeng Motor Corporation said today it has begun offering free test rides on its self-driving taxis in Wuhan, the provincial capital of Hubei.
More than 40 autonomous vehicles, named RoboTaxi, have been put on the roads in the economic and technological development zone of the city.

The test service involves around 20 specific car parks and more than 10 routes, according to the company's technical center.
Each RoboTaxi has the Beidou navigation and positioning system installed and an environmental perception system. This includes high definition cameras, lidar and millimeter wave radar. The onboard supercomputer, powered by the latest 5G technologies, is expected to accurately and quickly identify various traffic scenarios.
"It allows taxis to run smoothly," said Bian Ning, leader of the self-driving project at Dongfeng Technical Center. Considering the regulatory requirements, safety supervisors are needed for these driverless taxis. However, according to Bian, the safety supervisor will not take over unless there is an emergency. Dongfeng Motor Corporation plans to launch more than 200 driverless taxis in Wuhan over the next two to three years.

By request of Prime Minister Leo Arason he has announced a national creation of a Nordic Scientific Studies Council to study the geo-political climate of nations of Nordic influence in their historical background. It is the goal of this study to preserve the Nordic identity so none forget where we come from. As the political climate changes so do the threats remains to Nordic traditions and culture. Through cooperation in understanding on a diplomatic level will be key what can be achieved. There are no plans to take this international but we open to the possibilities it may bring to Iceland's surrounding neighbors.

Official statement – Artifacts and sanctions
~ Department of State for Cultural Affairs, Orange-bourgogne

The Department of State for Cultural Affairs does hereby re-affirm its willingness to look into the claims of the various states whose governments have forwarded communications touching certain historic artifacts originating from their respective nations.

Earlier, we already made public the official policy which the Government shall follow in these procedures. The claims are to be directed to the independent commission as previously set up. No Department of State from His Majesty’s Government has jurisdiction to settle any of these matters since the creation of that body, and thus further remarks to us can only remain fruitless.

We would also like to re-iterate that the sanctions are completely blown out of proportion. Indeed, if only you were willing to delay the imposing of any sanctions until after the independent review body has made a recommendation with regards to your artifacts, none of these troubles would exist.

Of course Governments do not have to take our word for it, they can look to an esteemed Member-State to the United Assembly of Nations: the Imperial Federation of Infiny. Perhaps we should remind states that we too can take such measures. We could, for instance, issue an order to cease all exports of food products. Being the second-largest exporter of such products, we can clearly see what implications this might have for people who depend on our agricultural exports. At present, the Government is not of the opinion that this would strengthen our position, but if threats continue to be issued at our address, we may have to send a strong signal too.

The agent briefly looks towards his partner and shakes his head from side to side before taking another puff of his cigarrette.

The other agent looks down and raises his eyebrows before grabbing another chip from the can. He quickly changes the subject.

State Department Response to the Department of State for Cultural Affairs (UKOB) {Public statement}

Though the Union has taken punitive measures to ensure items of a historical nature are returned to their nations of origin, it agrees with the Secretary's statement. However, as the level of imports that would be blocked from entering the Union from the United Kingdom are at best negligible, this will not affect the Union. Those nations affected by the cessation of food exports may turn to the Union for their food stuff needs as we are a leader in food exports and other fields. This by no means is a statement belittling the United Kingdom and we do agree that some measures taken have been extreme. But it does not mean that innocents should need to suffer with the threat of starvation or worse. No further actions will be taken against the United Kingdom as the punitive measures taken by this government have been deemed enough for the time being.

In coordination with the University of Athens & The Acropolis Museum

To: Professor Nicolette van Dam, Orange-bourgogne

IESCO, on behalf of the University of Athens, The Acropolis Museum and with assistance from the Hellenic Ministry of Culture, are writing to you today to request for the removal of various items from The Museum in Westminster which contains items of Hellenic Cultural Importance and is important in Hellenic History.

The following items are requested:

The Parthenon Marbles
All Hellenic/Athenian pottery
All Hellenic sculptures (marble, bronze work, etc)
Any Hellenic Inscriptions
Any Hellenic architectural art such as various Friezes

We request the return of these artifacts simply for the fact it is such a strong part of Hellenic History and culture. We understand the western cultural significance, with the Hellenic League being the birthplace of Western civilization.

With that being said, once these items are returned, we are willing for various pieces to be loaned out to not only Westminster and U.K. Museums but museums across the world. Hellenic History and Art is full of splendor, and should be enjoyed. But these important pieces also deserve to be enjoyed within the context of where they belong.

IESCO, the University of Athens, and the Acropolis Museum also represent a wide range of museums that are willing to accept these various pieces. They are perfectly capable of storing these pieces, and maintaining them for public enjoyment. In the Acropolis museum, a spot is already open for the Parthenon Marbles already.

We want to work towards a solution to help bring back Hellenic History to Hellas, where it belongs.

I believe you, a scholar, an appreciative person of art and history, can understand our reasoning and accept it. We look forward to working with you and your team to get these pieces back into Hellenic museums for public consumption, and in the future to plan out international exhibitions for various pieces once the collection is returned.

Confederation of Indochinese States News Network / สมาพันธ์เครือข่ายข่าวอินโดจีน / ສະຫະພັນເຄືອຂ່າຍຂ່າວສານອິນໂດຈີນຂອງອິນດູຈີນ /
សហព័ន្ធបណ្តាញព័ត៌មានរដ្ឋឥណ្ឌូចិន / Mạng tin tức Liên hiệp các Quốc gia Đông Dương

Today, Chairman Mailam signed the Government Security Act of the Confederation. This was met with some backlash from various representatives at municipal levels. The GSAC is to ensure that government officials under the Chairman are under surveillance while on duty. The GSAC does not intrude into their personal lives, which was later clarified by Chairman Mailam. The GSAC is as follows:

  1. Lesser Government Security Measures

    1. Members of provincial and municipal legislations must be monitored at all times while on duty.

      • Lesser legislators will have breaks in which they are not monitored which includes 15-minute lunch breaks and any bathroom break. This coincides with 2018MA.26 which requires legislators to be at their post until the session is ended or a break is permitted.

      • Monitoring stops once the legislator is off duty.

    2. Members of provincial and municipal legislations may be required to submit to authorities any conversation that violates any regulation within Section B of this document.

      • Conversations must be recited to the best of the ability of the legislator. If authorities assess that the legislator is withholding information, measures can be taken against the legislator to procure the entire conversation that resides in the memory of the questioned legislator.

  2. Regulations of the Government Security Act of the Confederation

    1. Any conversation that is deemed to be anti-Confederation that has occurred during a break will be recorded and the legislators who were involved in the conversation will be detained and questioned.

      • A recording of the questioning session will be required for analysis.

    2. Any legislator that is caught spreading rumors about the Chairman of the Confederation or spreading anti-Confederation propaganda during their monitoring will face criminal charges

    3. Any legislator that speaks against any union that the Confederation is signed to or under will face criminal charges.

      • This can be during monitoring, or while off-duty.

What you see is a basic overview of the GSAC. The actual document goes into greater detail and is ten and a half pages long. Citizens of the Confederation are not required to read nor memorize the document unless they become legislators on the municipal or provincial levels. Chairman Mailam plans on speaking to the Confederation live from Nakhonruang later this month. This will begin a yearly address that is being referred to as the State of the Confederation Address. While this was present in the past, the dates were not regulated and there have been years where a SCA was not given. This SCA will become the first in a line of annual addresses. The Chairmen that will come after Chairman Mailam are expected to follow this pattern as well.
