I must say I love seeing Florencia's own Packers representing the nation in American Football.

Nice work. The only thing I would recommend is adding something at the end like a link to Talossa or some credits. The video abruptly ends.

Completely forgot to add that for this month's video! I am going to put a calendar reminder for the August video.

The third episode of Fora Talossa's history series is now live. In the month of July 1981, a young King Robert discovers that separating himself from Talossa will not improve courtship chances.

The issue is that the King has not endorsed the PD. We cannot release funds unless the King endorses the PD.

So one issue is release of existing funds to pay, which needs authorization.  Another according to PDR Ltd. https://publicdomainregistry.com/renew/ is that the registrar provided notice on or about 3 June and it is now 30 June.

XPB, I followed the link and it took me to their general site. I am assuming I need to use the search bar to see the specific website information. Does the site indicate who was the recipient of notice on 3 June?

I fully support this! I just wish Talossa was big enough to make a true contribution to the sanctions against the criminal regime in Russia.

Thank you MC Lenxheir, would you like to be added as a co-sponsor?

Yes please!

Excellent, honored to have you on this bill

Whereas, for over four months the Russian Federation has engaged in unprovoked and barbaric brutalization (war, not a "special military operation") of the people and infrastructure of Ukraine, and

Whereas, for over four months the Russian Federation has blockaded Ukrainian grain exports endangering the food security of millions, and

Whereas, for over four months Vladimir Putin, Sergei Lavrov, Dmitri Peskov and other agents of the Russian Federation's kleptocratic and autocratic regime have threatened use of non-conventional weaponry if their illegal and inhuman actions are not validated by Western acquiescence.

Therefore, be it resolved that it is the Sense of the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa:

As a proponent of global democracy, to express its solidarity with the Ukrainian fight for sovereignty and self-determination, and

Supports the efforts of the International Criminal Court to investigate instances of Russian armed forces participating in forced relocation of Ukrainian civilians, systematic and pervasive sexual violence, and deliberate targeting and killing of Ukrainian civilians, and

Condemns the Russian Federation's blocking of Ukrainian grain exports as an egregious and unacceptable endangering of food security for millions in the developing world.

Your flexible memory aside, I proposed a compromise between the two bills, Dama.  It remains the last post on the thread, since you ignored it.

... actually, I never saw it. My apologies - I have been rather unwell for the last month and only checking Witt once a day, which means some things fall off the "latest 59" post.

I am happy to make that amendment you suggest.

It's okay!  Things happen, and it's entirely understandable if you miss something.  But that means you should probably give others the same benefit of the doubt, right?

Would you be open to just having Republic Day on the day of Reunision, and no Reunision Day at all, and getting basically 100% of the Cosa behind this?  I really don't want to endorse the narrative that Reunision was the defeat of the Republic, and this alternative would specifically celebrate its history and heritage but not the unfortunate schism that separated so many for so long.

What precisely is happening here?

You submitted your bill to the CRL, and Dama Miestra submitted her bill.  ESB asked to confirm that they were really very similar, and that has led into a discussion where I'm trying to hammer out a compromise that might be agreeable to both of you.

It is not acceptable to me. By submitting the original to the CRL and then clarking it...I thought that was clear.

I recorded a first episode, but honestly the video looked so terrible that I was embarrassed. I then got a new webcam and I'm going to try rerecording it this week :-)

Baron, this is incredibly exciting. You are Fora Talossa's first vlogger!

Hello, I would like to clark The Let's Make This Official Act https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=1501.0

The Loud Town Crier Act

Whereas, current election regulations require the Secretary of State to post preliminary election results to only Wittenberg, and

Whereas, it is broadly agreed that Wittenberg, while an important aspect of Talossan life, is not Talossa itself, and

Whereas, it is a reasonable act of public interest to ensure that news of Talossan elections is made available to as many Talossans as possible, and

Whereas, this amending of election notification requirements will result in minimal additional burden on the Chancery.

Therefore, El Lexhatx B. 13.5 is amended to read as follows (changes in bold):

QuoteImmediately following the Election Deadline, the Secretary of State shall post unofficial elections results on Wittenberg, transmit these results by email to citizens allowing contact by the Chancery, and notify the members of the Commission that the unofficial results have been posted.

I already sent you mom's spaghetti sauce, let me think and perhaps I can come up with another good one

Thanks Tric'hard. I still need to fix your earlier recipe for the Dreamy Chicken!

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on June 23, 2022, 08:34:47 PM

Subak Kimchi (수박 김치)
Ingredients

   
• Four cups of watermelon rind
• Half-cup of kosher salt
• Six tablespoons red pepper powder
• Three tablespoons toasted sesame seed oil
• Two tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
• Two large garlic scapes, thinly sliced, or two cloves of garlic, minced, as preferred or available

Directions

   
• What do you do when you finish with your watermelon?  You eat the rind!  Four cups of watermelon rind is typically something like the rind of between 1/4 and 1/5 of a medium watermelon.  To prepare, first trim off any red flesh that you still see, and then use a knife or vegetable peeler to remove the waxy green outside.  You should be left with curved strips of white rind.  Slice these into very thin strips with a sharp knife or a mandolin.
• Add your thin strips of rind to a large bowl, and then use your hand to stir them around while covering them in the salt.  You want each strip to get a liberal coating of salt.  If you need more salt, go nuts with it.  Don't worry -- most of that's going to be washed away!  Set this mixture aside.
• In another large bowl, mix together all of the other ingredients.  You want to end up with a thick paste.  Add more or less sesame oil, as necessary to achieve this.
• Once fifteen minutes have elapsed, begin squeezing out the watermelon rind.  It should already be sweating its juices, but you want to squeeze it tightly and wring out the rest of the liquid.  You can do this by the handful or use a cheesecloth, but don't use a mechanical press, since you want to keep the strips physically intact.  This process eliminates most of the salt, as it is carried away by the juice.  Try to wring out as much juice as you can, transferring the completed strips over to the bowl with your prepared sauce.  Discard the juice.
• Thoroughly mix, making sure to coat each strip in sauce.  If you have disposable gloves, you might want to wear them at this point.
• You're done!  While your subak kimchi is ready immediately, it will continue to ferment and become more delicious over the next few days.  Store in the fridge in a tightly sealed container.
• One common way to serve subak kimchi is putting a small pile on the side of a bowl of sticky rice, topped with a sunny-side egg.  If you're feeling masochistic, have a glass of soju (소주) with it!

Another excellent recipe! Thanks Baron
