News From Around The Globe presents Tengen-jutsu for the Soul.

Japanese fortune tellers are celebrating their perfect spring predictions. The rest of Japan is mourning the loss of their comrades as well as their recently gained island vacation spots. If you don't know, Tengen-jutsu is a form of fortune telling used in Japan based on yin and yang and the five elements. What are the five elements? We're glad you asked. They are earth, water, fire, wind, and void (or ether). Why wind and not air? We don't know. We didn't get that far down the wikipedia page. More interesting to us is that this practice stems from Chinese practices and represents yet another invention China provided rather than France. Sorry France, at least you'll always have fries.

In unrelated news, a private jet was spotted flying over the Atlantic from Africa this past season. Normally, this would not be noteworthy, but the NFATG has it on good authority that this jet contained several former heads of state. We tracked it's initial flight path, and it appears to have been headed towards Cleveland. Unfortunately pirate vessels off the coast of Cape Verde decided to try out their newly acquired SAMS and shot the plane down. No word yet on whether there will be a rescue attempt.

Speaking of Africa, reports out of Egypt indicate there was a large gathering of naval ships in and around the East Mediterranean Sea this season. Rumor has it, admirals from multiple countries got together, created a circle with their ships and sang "Kumbaya". One Egyptian admiral was unable to join the party due to complications with their war on Israel.

And finally, we have some LATE-BREAKING NEWS to deliver. Last night, radioactive cockroaches in South America staged a coup in Venezuela. It's being reported that these cockroaches have been laying in wait for over a year, and have finally seized upon the opportunity they were looking for. Currently, the exact extent of this coup is unknown, but it does seem clear that Venezuela is now under new leadership.

That's all the news that's fit to print. Until next time, good night and good news.

GM NOTES

First off, we have a new Venezuela. Special thanks to Trevor Crow for stepping up to the plate.

Second, we have some retreats! Retreats due tomorrow at noon eastern from USA, Mexico, Venezuela, Bolivia, UK, Russia, and Mali!

Third, Fall 05 orders are due Wednesday, July 6th at noon eastern.

Finally, a reminder to you heathens out there that on Monday us Americans will be celebrating our independence from the tyrannical rule of England/Great Britain/United Kingdom. This is *not* the same thing as gaining independence from the European Union regardless of what the nutball Brits are trying to sell these days. Anyway, the point is some people may not be around as much this weekend to respond to emails and things. We'll be too busy celebrating by blowing things up. Just something to keep in mind.

If you were a kid growing up in the USA in the 60's 70s or 80s, was this one of your nightmares?

GM Notes:

Correction on the spring adjudication! USA's fleet in JAM did not support SAR to CCB. As a result, the fleet in CCB has not been dislodged, and the fleet in HIS has nowhere to retreat to and is thusly destroyed.

Fall 05 will be due Wednesday July 6th at noon eastern.

USA:
Wing PAR disbands
Fleet NTU disbands

Mexico:
F GLP to SCP

Bolivia:
retreat to Bni

UK:
Retreat to Wal

Russia:
VLG->PRM
KIE->MOL

Mali:
Retreat to TOM
