[WHPR] Friday Night Edition

Day 2,068, 21:32 • Published in USA USA

• by James S. Brady Press Room

Dateline: Friday, July 19th (Day 2,06😎
Location: James S. Brady Press Room, The White House

Today’s WHPR
1)DoI and Dept of Ambassadorial Affairs still recruiting
2)Interview Secretary Irule777
3)eNPR and a few other things

This segment was run last week for the Department of Interior, and for the Department of Ambassadorial Affairs. They got some responses for which I thank the readers of The WHPR. However both Departments are in need of moar bodies. So I'm running the segment again.

The Department of the Interior is currently hosting another fundraising drive. The Interior department is heavily dedicated to helping new players of this game and as the Department receives no funding from the government, it must raise its own money. You can assist the Interior by donating Tanks, Food and/or USD to Secretary Irule777 or, Deputy Secretary Kodos. The Interior thanks everyone who's willing to donate and will accept every donation, large or small. There's no price not worth paying for our young citizens! Money will go towards running current Interior programs and the coming soon IRC Incentives program.

The Department of the Interior is also in need of staffers. Secretary Irule777 has a variety of jobs available, if you're interested shoot the good Secretary a pm. In a similar vein the Department of Ambassadorial Affairs is looking for some fresh faces.

Secretary Rainy Sunday, needs more ambassadors. If you’re interested send Rainy a pm. If you’re a new player, or have just kept a low profile up till now, and are looking for a chance to shine. The time is now. Apply for one of these jobs, do a good job, and it will be noticed.

As many of you may have heard the eUSA is currently in the midst of a baby boom. We have climbed from 9th in population to 6th in the last several weeks. I did an irc interview with Secretary Irule777 to get why this is important. Some of the interview was lost due to my irc client on my tablet being set incorrectly.
I begin the interview by asking the Secretary about the shortage of helpers in the Interior Department. To which I was told they need mass messages, QMs, and other positions filled. Then I mentioned we are in the midst of a baby boom. My screen shot picks up with the response

It has come to my attention that eNPR has not been running this term. I was told it was taken care of, and I didn't follow up to be sure. I take full responsibility for this failure. That said I have neither the time, nor the setup (I do most of my stuff via Galaxy Tab) to host eNPR myself. If there are volunteers out there to setup and host eNPR this term please contact me.

The budget has passed. Listing the details:
US Government Budget July 2013
I. Executive
Line U1. MPP Costs: $ 45,000
II. Defense
Line U2. Armed Forces: $165,000
III. Treasury
Line U3. Reserve Extra
TOTAL: $210,000

The Media Department is also recruiting, I have a solid staff, but in order to lighten the load on them and myself I am always willing to take more contributors. So if you are a willing writer, and have opinions you want to share, the WHPR would be a fantastic platform. If interested send me a pm.

$165,000 CC to the USAF? Why continue to support a military whose commanders keep resigning, who wouldn't know strategy if it kicked them in the face; who seems to never show up in battles for our original regions...give that money to US-AIM and we'll show you how it's done...

CURRAHEE...!

Tyler Bubblar Day 2,069, 12:25

Your opinion is perfectly valid, that said if you don't like the budget feel free to run for Congress and argue for changes there.

Drew Blood Day 2,070, 04:15

Been there, done that; the budget is done in secret and then put up for a vote on a forum controlled by the 'Pfeifferist'....

Nohime Day 2,070, 08:11

I'm AF CO since last 5th february, if my math is correct, that is 6 months as commander. As for the COs not knowing strategy, you should know it is the NSC who places the orders on the bot the COs follow. If you want to complain about that, contact the NSC Chairman.

Also... As a last regard on this, not all MUs such as SHIELD and so on have someone who can put their visa and place tons of RL money into it. Think about that.

Donovan Zoi Day 2,070, 17:32

I'm trying to figure out why SHIELD is specifically called out in response to a comment by a member of WTP.

A large number of MUs are supported by a CO invested in its success, and with that investment may come more involvement to ensure that investment is used wisely. Not to take anything away from what you have done as CO (as I don't have all the facts), but I think people do have a right to question how their tax dollars are used.

Nohime Day 2,071, 01:35

I placed SHIELD as an example rather than a call out. I could also mentioned black sheep or any other MUs who have that sort of luck.

Not questioning the fact people can question how their tax dollars are spent, it's everyone's right. I just find it a bit senseless to compare USAF to private MUs. They don't work the same way nor they are constantly sponsored by rich private citizens. Nothing personal but it is my opinion.

Synesi Day 2,070, 18:19

Ours is a system in which one resignation won't set us back. Go back to your hole Drew Blood. America is tired of your ranting.

Drew Blood Day 2,071, 05:12

The problem is that not just one resigns, the entire Officer Corp resigns - twice; so how much infrastructure, food and weapons went with them? Was anything recovered? The sad thing is that happened once before and apparently the same problems still existed. So why should America spend tax dollars on a military with such problems; those problems undoubtedly have caused the USAF failure to motivate their soldier or to even keep experienced officers...not a military I would invest in....
