_COOKING MAMA: COOKSTAR_ is a cookery simulation-styled minigame compilation video game, and the sixth main installment in the _Cooking Mama_ series of video games. The game was briefly released before its official release date on the Nintendo Switch eShop on March 26, 2020,[1] but was taken down just a few hours later due to legal issues between the publisher, Planet Entertainment, and the owner of the _Cooking Mama_ intellectual property (IP), Office Create. The fact that the game released without a public announcement or press statement and was taken down so quickly has led to much speculation about the game's development and if the game will be properly released.[2] The game was then officially released on March 31 in the United States despite legal concerns, but the European and Australian releases were delayed to April 28.[3] Office Create publicly issued a statement condemning the breach of contract on April 15, 2020. However, the European and Australian releases were not impacted and released as normal.

The game is the first main entry in the _Cooking Mama_ series since 2014's _Cooking Mama 5: Bon Appétit!_, and the first _Cooking Mama_ game on console since 2008's _Cooking Mama: World Kitchen_. A PlayStation 4 version was also announced with the game's initial announcement in August 2019 with a planned April 28, 2020 release, but has not released or been advertised by Planet Entertainment since.

Gameplay

_Cooking Mama: Cookstar_ plays similarly to previous entries in the series. New in _Cookstar_ is the introduction of a vegetarian mode, as well as the ability to share photos of completed recipes on social media. The former was praised by PETA, which had criticized previous _Cooking Mama_ games for having few vegan recipes.[4]

Development

_Cookstar_ was initially revealed as _Cooking Mama: Coming Home to Mama_ in August 2019, with an estimated release date for Q3 of that year. Its publisher claimed that it was the first implementation of blockchain technology on a major video game console, using the technology to implement a form of digital rights management.[5] The game was developed by American[6] studio 1st Playable Productions, but the company later removed all mentions of the game from its website.[7]

Release

_Cookstar_ ostensibly released on March 31, 2020. The game was briefly made available on the Nintendo Switch eShop, but pulled shortly after its release.[8] Additionally, the PlayStation 4 version was never released despite being listed on several storefronts. Unconfirmed rumors that the game acted as a cryptocurrency miner emerged shortly after its release.[9] 1st Playable responded that the implementation of blockchain technology was only “hypothetical” and explained that the game's removal from Nintendo eShop was due to an ongoing legal dispute between the publisher Planet Entertainment and IP rights holder Office Create.[10] Office Create stated it has started taking legal action against Planet as they had terminated their license to use _Cooking Mama_ on March 30, 2020, after which Planet had started selling the game.[11]

Reception

_Cooking Mama: Cookstar_ received mixed reviews from critics.

Travis Northup of _IGN_ gave the game 3 out of 10, praising the detailed recipes featured in the game, but criticizing the monotonous gameplay, poor motion controls, “nightmarish” voice acting, and lack of meaningful progression. He also noted that the game does not offer anything new compared to past entries, which combined with the flaws, make _Cookstar_ a “tedious game that does almost nothing well.”[12]

Conversely, TheGamer's Bella Blondeau gave _Cookstar_ a 4 out of 5. She praised the game's variety and amount of content, as well as the “nuance” to mastering the mechanics. In addition, she praised the game's photo mode and Yoko Nishino's “charming” performance as Mama, stating that the character felt “like a tangible, adorable dork of a mother.”[13]

title: Cooking Mama: Cookstar

question: What does the text say about the gameplay of "Cooking Mama: Cookstar"?

answer: It's a simulation game about cooking. The game has many recipes in it, including lots of vegan ones in the latest version. The gameplay is similar to previous iterations. IGN's Travis Northup criticized the game's monotonous gameplay, poor controls, "nightmarish" voice acting, and lack of new content. Bella Blondeau of TheGamer, however, praises the game's content variety and praised it for the required "nuance" to mastering the mechanics.

question: Summarize the contentious aspects of the text.

answer: The game's release involved controversy due to it getting released a few days before the official date. The game was recalled in a few hours until the official date. The issue originated because of a legal issue between the publisher and the developer regarding expired IP. The PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch versions weren't released. Another controversy involved the alleged blockchain DRM implementation being a bitcoin miner, which the publisher denied. Finally, the game received conflicting reviews and ratings - 3/10 from IGN and 4/5 from TheGamer.

This is so unfair.
How could they do this to me? I have done absolutely nothing wrong, and now I’m about to be
executed.
I suppose it could be worse though, I could be dead.
I have a few hours before that, so I suppose I should make the most of what I have.
That is in total: a paper clip and my chafing prison
clothes. Great.
I wonder what I can actually accomplish during the next few hours, I could write a song, scratch a
drawing on the wall, think about some deep meaningful last words. Maybe I should write a song…
I am a man of many talents after all. I could serenade my executioners with some fantastic vocals!
I love the sounds that can come out of peoples throats.
A man came to the door, I get to choose my last meal. I told him what I wanted and he violently beat me.

That wasn’t very nice, I wonder if it was something I said?

Only a few hours now. I over heard the guards talking about me. Thats nice, at least I’ll be
remembered. Oh wow, turns out I’m to be electrocuted. Shocking.
I guess there are worse ways of going out, hell I know there are worse ways of dying!
I grow weary of their conversation, guess I’ll try out that new song.

They didn't like it.

 Some people don't know a good thing when they hear it.
Only ten minutes before the execution, strange how excited I am for this.
I really didn’t think I was going to be this pumped!
I wonder If I am supposed to be re-evaluating my life, honestly given the chance I would do it all again.

Well, maybe getting caught wouldn't be on the list. Still, I’ve had a good one.
Walking down the hall now, I keep getting jostled and beaten by the guards. I am getting really sick
of this, I know! I’ll go limp and start singing! A bit tragic for a last hurrah but I’ll take it.
God they look pissed. Good.
Sitting in the chair now, I guess this is it.

Huh… I think I can see my papers from here…

**Jacob Ford**

*Death by electrocution on 23rd February xxxx*
*Serial killer and cannibal, consumed 29 people across Texas before being caught running from the
police.*

Thats odd, I could have sworn it was 30.

title: [MS?]It ain't so bad

question: Where is the narrator?

answer: He is in a prison awaiting his execution.

question: What has gotten the narrator into their current situation?

answer: He was a serial killer and cannibal charged with consuming 29 people across Texas.

question: Explain the context surrounding "they didn't like it".

answer: The narrator decided to serenade his guards with a new song he wrote.

question: What is the main conflict?

answer: The narrator is bored awaiting execution.

question: Write a ~5 sentence summary.

answer: The narrator details their last few hours before being executed. He doesn't believe he deserves this or has done anything wrong. He creates songs and sings them to the guards, who aren't pleased, to entertain himself. When it's time for his execution, his papers are revealed. His name is Jacob Ford and he is a serial cannibal who consumed 29-30 people in Texas.

text:
I've delivered mail on this route for a year now. At this point I know everyone by name. Not many faces, just names floating around in my head from the countless times I delivered their letters. Nothing interesting occurs along my route. Except for the House at least. The House itself is nothing out of the ordinary for this area. A large, two-story building with a wrought iron fence surrounding it.  Something was off though. I don't know why it took me so long to realize it, I mean I've delivered mail on this route for a few years now. They never got any mail. The House never got anything. No bills, no flyers, no spam mail, nothing. I chalked it up to being empty or abandoned, but the lawn was always perfectly kept. Sometimes the lights were on too. I could see into some of the rooms then, they all looked blank and empty. Oh well, it's none of my business.

I pushed the House out of my mind for a few months. Then one day I saw someone. First time I ever saw anyone here in 10 years of working this route. My curiousity got the best of me and I went up to talk to him.

"Excuse me." I said, "Do you work here?"

"Yes I do, sir! How may I assist you today?"

"What is this place?"

"Oh just a House like any other, sir" he replied.

"But why don't you get any mail?"

"Well most people forget we're even here, sir. Have a great day!"

That made me more confused than before. Maybe they have their mail forwarded somewhere? No no no. I had already checked for that. What if I sent them mail and saw how it was delivered? But that wouldn't work, I'd be the one delivering it. I've delivered mail on this route for over 20 years now. I should try to get into the House, see what's inside. No one just doesn't get mail.

It finally happened! The House got a letter! I don't know what it says. But I want to know. If only I could open it. But no. I'd get in trouble. I'd lose my job. I've delivered mail on this route for my whole life. I can't give it up now. But I have to know. This is the first letter the House has received. Maybe it's worth the risk. *I need to know what's in the letter.*

"Look at this, Mr Casey" the nurse says. "You got a letter! Isn't that exciting? It's from your Grandson. I know it's been a while since you have heard from him but you remember him, right? Here, I'll read it to you!"

> Dear Grandpa,

> I know it's been a long time since I've written you, and even longer since I've visited. Dad and I found it too hard to see you like that. After everything, it breaks my heart knowing you don't even know who I am anymore. This letter may not mean anything to you but it means a lot to me. All of the stories you told me have had such a significant impact on my life. Your relationship with Grandma taught me true love lasts forever. Your stories about the war taught me courage. Your stories about working overtime delivering mail just to put my dad through college taught me perseverence. You have changed my life in so many ways and I don't know how to thank you enough. I wanted to follow in your footsteps so I enlisted in the Army. If I can be half the man that you are, I'll have lead a successful life. If you don't understand anything I've said so far, just know that you are loved.

> Love,
Andrew

title: [MF] The Mailman

question: Summarize what the narrator knows about the House before he inquires about it.

answer: The narrator is a mailman who has been on the same delivery route for a while. The only thing that piques his interest on his route is the House. The House was ordinary, a large two-story building with wrought iron fencing surrounding it. The mailman felt something was off about it because it never received any mail whatsoever. He thought it might be abandoned, but its lawn was kept and the lights were on.

question: Summarize the contents of the letter.

answer: The letter the House receives is addressed to "Grandpa", who presumably lives there. It's his grandson, Andrew, writing to him. He notes it's been a long time since he's written and even longer since he visited. It seems he and his father found it too difficult to visit the grandfather because of his aging. Andrew tells him that all of the stories his grandfather told him have had a significant impact on his life. The letter seems to hint that the grandfather is the mailman, as it mentions how the grandfather's hard work delivering mail taught him perseverance. Andrew finishes the letter by saying he hopes he knows she's loved.

question: Summarize why the House doesn't get any mail.

answer: The mailman remains unaware of why the House doesn't receive mail for almost his whole life, until one day the House finally receives a letter. It seems that the grandfather addressed in the letter is actually the mailman. His grandson Andrew explains that he hasn't visited or written in so long because he and his father have found his possible declining in age to be too hard to see. It's not said explicitly, but it seems to be why the House never got mail.

question: What does the text say about the mailman's confrontation with the person who lives in the House?

(1097 First Crusade)
	The unforgiving sun beat down across the baren lands that made up what Pope Urban II and the rest of christiandom were calling the holy land. The dirt whipped in the dry wind smacking against the faces and armor of the large column of european men and their horses as they continued on their march to sack a city they knew nothing about. Ulrick found the whole thing quite comical, he had never been much of a church going man yet here he was marching through a hot desert the course sand rubbing his skin raw, and sticking to his sweat, and it was all in the name of God. It made him wonder how the hell he wound up there, was it the promise of pay, forgiveness of his sins. Looking back he though how far he had truly come.
         As a young boy he had lived in a small village with his family helping around the farm. He had lived a happy life, well sheltered would be a better word he thought. He knew nothing of life outside his town he attended mass with his family, and the priests would speak of issues in the kingdom and so would the other adults but he was too young to understand what they spoke about, financial problems, war, and bandit raids, these words meant nothing to Ulrick he was too preoccupied with his own little world, working hard in the fields, and playing with his friends he had everything he needed, and wanted, he could care less about everything else. Well he could have, it had been a hot and long day he had spent most of it weeding the fields Ulrick let out a sigh of relief as the sun disappeared behind the ridge and trees that surrounded his parents farm, the shade was a relief he thought to himself as he pulled the last of the weeds, he was excited since he finished the job today it means he wouldn't have to do it for a while. He straightened up and wiped his dirt covered hands on his green tunic "all done" he said to himself as he walked over to an old oak tree which served as his shade on the side of the field and looked down at the cloth he had used to carry his lunch out to the field that day. "mum would be furious if she saw I didn't eat all my food" he said to himself as he looked down at the few bread crusts and remains of cheese and carrot that he had not eaten at lunch. "Well I better eat it," he said as he plopped down next to the tree,"besides pulling all those weeds has made me hungry." He crammed the bread and cheese into his mouth and chewed "I'll eat the bread and cheese" he thought to himself "but I think I'll just bury the carrots." Ulrick let his eyes wander up to the branches of the old oak which had stood silent guard over his family's field for as long as he could remember. He remembered playing around it as a boy as his father and his family tended the fields, he remembered his father selecting the perfect branch from which to craft Ulricks first bow. His chewing was interrupted by shouting and screams in the distance. Ulrick stood up maybe some wolves had wandered into the village, " maybe dad will let me use my bow he made to scare them off." Delusions of Ulrick saving the village and being the hero swam though his mind as he ran towards home. " Just need to get over this hill and I will be able to see what is going on," he thought. The closer Ulrick got to the top of the hill he noticed the screams started to fade and a strange glow was coming from beyond the hill. Ulrick reached the top of the hill and the view that awaited him stunned him speechless. The town was ablaze bodies littered the street and Ulrick could see a group of men on horseback fleeing the village. Ulrick raced down the hill and into the city to see if he could help anyone as he ran onto the main road through his village he began to realize he wasn't going to find anyone alive. He hoped that his family was alright that maybe his friends were too, he couldn't accept that they might be dead he had to see for himself. If anyone would have survived it would have been his family his dad had fought for the king there was no way he could have been killed. Ulrick rushed down the street body's strewn about on either side lying in pools of their own blood, windows shattered, doors kicked in all awash in the light of the fire that now consumed half the village. Ulrick reached his door and through it open what he saw broke his heart his father lay headless his cold hands still clutching his sword his mother and brother lay behind him, stabbed to death. Ulrick fell to his knees paralyzed by sadness and grief he couldn't speak he didn't know if he ever would be able to again it hurt too much no cry of pain no word could sum up the anguish he felt. From the other room Ulrick heard a large clanging noise, He quietly moved to pick up his fathers sword, it was alot heavier than it looked. Suddenly a man crashed through the door stumbling under the weight of the loot he carried he was a rough man his clothes were torn and so covered in dirt and mud Ulrick couldn't tell what the original color was. The mans eyes lit up when he saw Ulrick he dropped his loot and drew the dagger that hung at his belt. Before Ulrick could react the man rushed him, Ulrick didn't know what else to do he had never used a sword before he swung with all his might but the force of the swing along with the weight of the sword though him off balance and he fell on his rear but not before the blade had hit its mark the mans head had been cloven from his shoulder and it had landed on its side in front of Ulrick the mans dead eyes which for a moment shifted wildly back in forth as if trying to comprehend what had just happened before becoming still and fixated on Ulrick's eyes. It was all too unbearable Ulrick crawled into the corner covered in blood and still clutching the sword he cried all though the night while the city burned around him and the dead man watched him.

title: Tomb(Prologue)

question: What does the text say about Ulrick's childhood?

answer: He was a farm boy, sheltered from the outside world. He helps his parents, goes to church with his family, and he's generally happy. One day after his work is finished, he hears screams. Thinking that maybe wolves attacked the village, and he can be a hero with his bow, he decides to go to the hill to take a look. There, he sees the village burning. He goes to his home, but his parents are already dead. A man enters, grabbing a knife to stab Ulrick, but the boy manages to lift his father's sword and cleave the man's head off his shoulders.

question: What does the story say about Saladin?

VICTORY FOR THE SOUTH – A southern platoon with an Abraham tank is transported back in time to the Gettysburg battle.  The platoon leader wants to change the battles outcome, but the black privates are afraid winning the battle may affect the Civil War’s outcome and the abolishment of slavery so everyone can be free.

The restoration building for the Hunley Submarine resides in the old Charleston Navy Yard. The Hunley sits in a 90,000 gallon conservation tank, among several artifacts in displays excavated from inside the submarine.  One of these artifacts is the gold coin Lt. George Dixon carried with him when the H.L. Hunley sank 138 years ago.

The Hunley submarine was found in Charleston’s harbor, South Carolina.  According to legend, Lt. George E. Dixon, who commanded the Hunley on its historic mission, had a sweetheart named Queenie Bennett from Mobile, Alabama. When he went off to war, she gave Dixon a 20 dollar gold coin, as a good luck charm.  It is rumored she also had voodoo practitioner Marie Catherine Laveau from New Orleans bless it with a voodoo spell of protection.  The coin saved Dixon’s life in the battle of Shiloh and he kept the coin when he commandeered the Hunley.

KRIS BROOKS (age 20s) sister to Lieutenant CHUCK BROOKS of the 13th South Carolina ARMORED DIVISION, steals this coin and gives it to her younger brother who is destined for Iraq later in the year.  When she tries to renew the coin’s original spell, she accidently sends her brother’s platoon back into time, days before the Gettysburg battle.

Lieutenant Brooks and his men are 100 percent southern and believes what the South fought for in the Civil War.  He realizes that he can change history and he does not care if it’s cheating – he believes he was sent back for a purpose. The platoon lays low and out of sight at a farm 10 miles outside Gettysburg.  The platoon had to take the farm’s family by force, no one was hurt.  Lidia, a freed slave, falls for the black private Benjamin and he falls for her.

Lieutenant Brooks decides they will attack the Union before the start of Pickets Charge. The more he realizes he can change history, the more he is determined to do it.  A Union patrol stops near the house and discovers Lieutenant Brooks, who then has all of the 30 men killed after his platoon had surrounded them.

The two black privates do not know how to stop lieutenant Brooks. That night they slip away from the farm with their weapons, including an anti-tank missile launcher, to warn General Meade of the impending attack by their platoon.  They hide their weapons, including the anti-tank missile launcher, before being captured by Union pickets, and brought before General Meade.  He does not believe they are from the future and has the two black privates jailed.

The freed black slave Lidia is able to find her way into the jail and give Benjamin a loaded revolver; they escape the night before Pickets Charge. Lidia is friends with the white person who runs the Underground Railroad, and he brings the black soldiers to General Meade, who is led to where the black soldiers stashed their weapons.  A demonstration of their weapons convinces General Mead they may be telling the truth. While they are examining their weapons, Benjamin accidently fires the anti-tank missile launcher, the only missile they had to stop Lieutenant Brooks.  General Meade is convinced by the black privates he has to dig anti-tank ditches around the center of the front line where they feel Lieutenant Brooks will send his platoon.

Lieutenant Brooks drives his tank and the platoon into General Lee’s camp about 5:00 AM.  The confederates are completely startled with the picket guards firing at them.  Brooks raises a white flag and asks to see General Lee where he convinces him they are from the future when he shows him a few apps on his iPhone. At 2:00 PM Lieutenant Brooks is in front of General Picket’s troops waiting for the signal to charge.

Jump to the future…..

The teacher (Android) is teaching other androids in class explaining the North American map and how it became divided into two different countries – the United States of America and the Confederate States of America (CSA).   The instructor begins explaining how androids enslaved humans.  It seems that when Lieutenant Brooks and his platoon went back into time, the modern weapons he brought resulted in a technological revolution before it’s time.  The technology was exploited by a few capitalists in the CSA who lost control of the technology allowing machines to become rulers on earth.

title: [SF] VICTORY FOR THE SOUTH

question: What does the passage say about Lieutenant Chuck Brooks?

answer: Lieutenant Chuck Brooks gets a magic coin from his older sister. This coin sends Brooks back to the future, days before the Gettysburg battle. Brooks is a believer in the American Confederacy and is determined to use this opportunity to get the South to win the Civil War, even if it feels like cheating. Thus Lieutenant Brooks decides to attack the Union for the start of Pickets Charge. Brooks then visits General Lee's camp to convince him that he is from the future, showing him an iPhone.

question: Summarize the outcome of the Civil War after Lieutenant Brooks disappeared into the future?

answer: In the future, we see the effect of Brook interference. It was reported that North America is now divided into two countries - the United States of America and the Confederate States of America (CSA). The technology brought by Lieutenant Brooks seemed to have changed the course of history, though the leaders lost control, causing AIs to take over the world.

question: What position did Lieutenant Brooks have in the new Confederate army?

Texas Cities Continue to Top the Charts

[Southern Cities Growing Quickly]

MAY 25, 2017 — Ten of the 15 fastest-growing large cities were located across the South in 2016, with four of the top five in Texas, according to new population estimates released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

Conroe, Texas (near Houston), was the fastest-growing large city (population of 50,000 or more) between 2015 and 2016 at 7.8 percent, making its growth rate more than 11 times the nation’s growth rate of 0.7 percent. Some of the other fastest-growing cities were: Frisco, Texas (6.2 percent); McKinney, Texas (5.9 percent); Greenville, S.C. (5.8 percent); and Georgetown, Texas (5.5 percent).

“Overall, cities in the South continue to grow at a faster rate than any other U.S region,” said Amel Toukabri, a demographer in the Census Bureau’s population division. “Since the 2010 Census, the population in large southern cities grew by an average of 9.4 percent. In comparison, cities in the West grew 7.3 percent, while cities in the Northeast and Midwest had much lower growth rates at 1.8 percent and 3.0 percent respectively.”

Four cities in the West — Bend, Ore.; Buckeye, Ariz.; Lehi, Utah; and Meridian, Idaho — were among the top 15 fastest growing. Only one city in the Midwest, Ankeny, Iowa, topped the list while no cities in the Northeast were among the nation’s fastest growing.

The statistics released today  cover all local governmental units, including incorporated places (such as cities and towns), minor civil divisions (such as townships) and consolidated cities (government units for which the functions of an incorporated place and its parent county have merged).

Later this summer, the Census Bureau will release additional population estimates by age, sex, race and Hispanic origin for the nation, states and counties.

Columbus, Ohio, Surpasses Indianapolis to Become the 14th Most Populous U.S. City

While the overall list of the 15 largest U.S. cities did not change since 2015, Columbus, Ohio, surpassed Indianapolis, Ind., becoming the 14th largest city in the United States with a population of 860,090. Indianapolis has a population of 855,164.

-   New York remains America’s largest city by a wide margin. Its July 1, 2016, population of 8.5 million makes it more than twice as large as the next largest city, Los Angeles.
-   Los Angeles remains the second-largest city, with a population of about 4 million. Despite a population loss of 8,638, Chicago remains the third-largest city, with a population of 2.7 million.
-   Phoenix, Ariz., had the largest numeric increase of any city, by adding 32,113 (about 88 people per day on average) between 2015 and 2016.

Population Change in Small Towns and Regional Differences

Of the 19,510 incorporated places in the United States, around 76 percent (14,801) had fewer than 5,000 people in 2015, whereas only 3.9 percent (752) of cities had a population of 50,000 or more. Since 2015, on average, these small towns have seen uneven growth across U.S. regions:

-   Northeast small towns declined by 0.5 percent.
-   Midwest small towns declined by 0.3 percent.
-   Small towns in the South grew by 0.2 percent.
-   Western small towns saw the largest growth with an increase of 0.8 percent.

Midsized cities in the Northeast, places with populations between 5,000 and less than 10,000, experienced relative stability, seeing a small average decline of 0.1 percent since the 2010 Census. Midsized cities in the other regions experienced population growth, on average.

Crossing Population Milestones

-   League City, Texas, was the only city to cross over the 100,000 population mark in 2016, reaching 102,010.
-   Five cities crossed the 50,000 population mark between 2015 and 2016. All five areas are in the West:
    -   Aliso Viejo, Calif. (51,424)
    -   Parker, Colo. (51,163)
    -   Logan, Utah (50,676)
    -   Cerritos, Calif. (50,555)
    -   Coeur d’Alene, Idaho (50,285)

Housing Unit Growth Remained Below Pre-2007 Levels in Nearly All States

The nation's housing stock grew by 911,000 last year to reach 135.7 million. The growth rate of 0.7 percent last year was roughly half of what it was in 2007 (1.4 percent). Housing unit growth last year remained below pre-2007 levels in nearly all states except North Dakota (up 1.6 percent last year, compared to a 0.9 percent increase in 2007), the District of Columbia (up 1.4 percent, compared to a 0.9 percent increase in 2007) and Iowa (returning to the 2007 level of 0.7 percent growth).

Space
The distant future
A long way from home
Aboard the Solitude

They gave me enough rations and air to last a full six months. Enough to last the whole recon mission. It’s been long enough now that the sound of my own thoughts is slowly driving me crazy. Outside Observation is just space. Space as far as the eye can see. Dotted with stars smaller than a baby's laugh. A sea of stillness spreading out forever.

Just below me is Judas 5. The star I was sent here to check out. Do a full orbit, they said, scan the planets in the system for atmosphere, water, plant life, etcetera, then shoot the retros and get the hell back here. Easy peasy. Simple simple simple. Simple mission. All I really had to do was sit in this cramped space for half a year, twiddle my thumbs, catch up on my reading, and keep myself in shape. The computers handled everything, mostly. They auto-guidance systems guided. The auto-detector system detected. Then once the six months was up I just pressed the big shiny button on the dashboard and I’d be home before I knew it.

I wondered how Anita was doing. Dating was hard for Nauts. Noughts. We were literally out of this world for months, years at a time. Dating outside the agency was a nightmare. Wait, so you’re telling me I get to see you one week in fifty-two? And you’re looking for something serious? Riiiiight, yeah not gonna work. Long distance? What a joke. Dating within the agency was hell as well. Sure you find a nice girl, cute, smart (or course), fit. She likes you. You like her. You ask her out. You go out. She gets deployed to Ulysses 12 or whatever. Best case scenario, she goes out alone, not knowing when she’ll be back, and you get sent out on your own mission to god knows where, and you two somehow manage to sync your timetables. Somehow. Unlikely though. Worst case scenario she gets sent out with mister Joe Beefpecs and gets hooked up while on mission. It’s only natural. Half a year in a cramped little room with only one other person for company? Sex is a no brainer of a time passer.

Anyway Anita. This girl I’d met a while back. Cute. Smart. Kind of a sarcastic chick. Funny though. She said she was fine with my job, but if I get back and she’s moved on I wouldn’t be surprised. Six months is a long time to be away from home.

Home. A little apartment in the city, round the corner from this nice little café no one knows about. A quiet little space in a city that never shuts up. An empty room in a place bursting at the seams with people. Some nauts didn’t see the point of living off-base. Didn’t see the point of getting attached to earthbounds. Earthbound people, earthbound places, they mean. Kept their rooms on base bare because they never had time to decorate. I guess I see their point. If I’m away ninety percent of the time there really is no point buying a place of my own. But I dunno. I kind like that, the fact that I’ve got a little place tucked away, just for me. Maybe I’m just sentimental like that.

The Solitude. Shuttles as a rule didn’t get names. I know they used to name them all – Discovery, Challenger, whatever – but these days they were just given codes. ATS, PNB, RT7, FUBAR etc. This hunk of twenty-year old junk was named DSSS 92 back in the heyday of the agency, when we could afford to send ninety two of the fuckers out there. Out here. Into space. Deep space surveyor shuttle ninety two. Really captures the imagination. So I thought, yknow what, I’ve been on enough recons with this little guy to deserve to name him. Her. It. Whatever.

Solitude. Original I know. But I guess I might as well. What with the air situation and all.

Oh. That. Yeah.

Captains log number one. Number last.

Day ninety-two.
The DSSS solitude.
A long way from home.
Retros are busted. Got hit by a freak shower a couple months back. Meteor, not rain. Been orbiting this sun for near on two months now. Air running out. No response from Terra.   Looks like I’m on my own. No surprises there.

I

I don’t know what else to say. It’s not like I’m leaving anyone behind after all.

...

Oh yeah. my mission.
...

No habitable zones found surrounding Judas 5.
No signs of life in surveyed area.
Mission status complete. Heading home.

XIAN, China (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron said on Monday China and Europe should work together on Beijing’s “Belt and Road” initiative, a project aiming to build a modern-day “Silk Road” he said could not be “one-way”.

Macron began his first state visit to China with a stop in Xian, an eastern departure point of the ancient Silk Road, hoping to relaunch EU-China relations often strained by Beijing’s restrictions on foreign investment and trade.

“After all, the ancient Silk Roads were never only Chinese,” Macron told an audience of academics, students and business people at the Daming Palace, the royal residence for the Tang dynasty for more than 220 years.

“By definition, these roads can only be shared. If they are roads, they cannot be one-way,” he said.

Unveiled in 2013, the Belt and Road project is aimed at connecting China by land and sea to Southeast Asia, Pakistan and Central Asia, and beyond to the Middle East, Europe and Africa.

Xi pledged $124 billion for the plan at a summit in May but it has faced suspicion in Western capitals that it is intended more to assert Chinese influence than Beijing’s professed desire to spread prosperity.

Macron, who pledged to visit China at least once every year during his mandate, said the new infrastructure and cultural projects promoted by China could also be in France’s and Europe’s interest if done in a spirit of cooperation.

“These roads cannot be those of a new hegemony, which would transform those that they cross into vassals,” Macron said.

Alice Ekman of the Paris-based IFRI think-tank said: “For the moment, considering how extensive and unclear the Chinese project continues to be, several European countries including France have shown caution about it.

“For China, the new Silk Roads are also a tool to promote new international standards, rules and norms that are different from those currently used by France and other European countries,”

British Finance Minister Philip Hammond said in December Britain, which is quitting the European Union, wanted closer cooperation with China over the Belt and Road scheme.

Macron, 40, has said Europe should not be “naive” in its trade relations, pushing in Brussels for more stringent anti-dumping rules against imports of cheap Chinese steel.

In June, he urged the European Commission to build a system for screening investments in strategic sectors from outside the bloc, which drew criticism from Beijing.

In Xian, Macron said he hoped EU-Chinese relations could have a new start, based on “balanced rules”, after acknowledging there had been mistrust and “legitimate questions” in China as well as fears amongst Europeans.

Europe was now united and ready to cooperate with China after years of crisis-management and economic stagnation, Macron said.

“What I came to tell you, is that Europe is back,” he added.

The French president, who is travelling with a delegation of 50 businessmen, is hoping to gain more access for French companies to Chinese markets.

JAMES W. HALL III (born 1958) is a former United States Army warrant officer and signals intelligence analyst in Germany who sold eavesdropping and code secrets to East Germany and the Soviet Union from 1983 to 1988.[1][2]

Hall was convicted of espionage on July 20, 1989; he was sentenced to 40 years imprisonment, fined $50,000, ordered to forfeit all proceeds from his activities, and given a dishonorable discharge. He served his sentence at the United States Disciplinary Barracks, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, from which he was released in September 2011 after 22 years.

Activities

Hall was assigned to the NSA Field Station Berlin Teufelsberg, one of the premier listening posts of the Cold War, between 1982-85 and he spied for both East Germany and the Soviet Union. Between 1983-88, he betrayed hundreds of military secrets, which includes Project Trojan, a worldwide electronic network with the ability to pinpoint armored vehicles, missiles and aircraft by recording their signal emissions during wartime [3] and the complete National SIGINT Requirements List (NSRL), a 4258-page document about NSA activities, government requirements and SIGINT capabilities by country.[4]

Hall sometimes spent up to two hours of his workday reproducing classified documents to provide to the Soviets and East Germans. Concerned that he was not putting in his regular duty time, he consistently worked late to complete his regular assignments. He used shopping bags to smuggle out originals of the documents, which he then photocopied in a Frankfurt flat with the help of an East Berlin associate.[5]

Using his illegal income, Hall paid cash for a brand new Volvo and a new truck, made a large down payment on a home, and took flying lessons. He is said to have given his military colleagues at least six conflicting stories to explain his lavish lifestyle. In 1986, Hall was stationed at Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, and was returning to Germany.

Passed over for promotion to Sergeant First Class that year, Hall was also applying for an appointment as a warrant officer. As a part of the routine background investigation associated with the warrant appointment, one of his supervisors, a Major (Hall was, at the time, a staff sergeant) commented to the investigator that he found it strange that Hall could drive the Volvo, a car that the Major couldn't afford.

The Major went on to explain that he had, himself, asked Hall about this apparent disparity; Hall responded that he had a wealthy aunt who died and left him a large trust from which he received $30,000 annually. The Major found the story plausible, but reiterated it to the investigators during their visit with him. The investigators thanked the Major for the information and told him they already knew about the “trust”. Hall's co-workers were fully taken in by his duplicity and his unusual activities never drew much attention.

After returning from Germany to the US, he traveled to Vienna, Austria, to meet with his Soviet handler. His co-workers wondered why he would re-enlist, and become a warrant officer, after several times conveying to them his dissatisfaction with army life. Of course, the Warrant Officer rank had allowed him greater access to classified material.

During his 1977–81 tour at Detachment Schneeberg, an intelligence gathering outpost for the VII Corps' 326th ASA (Army Security Agency) Company on what was the West German-Czechoslovakian border during the Cold War, Hall had a generally good working relationship with his peers, but was considered by peers to be only an average analyst. He would sometimes erupt and become upset over trivial day-to-day problems. However, for the most part he was considered to be a sociable colleague, and he also quickly picked up a working knowledge of the German language. Hall also met his future wife, who worked at a local restaurant in Bischofsgruen, a popular tourist town where the majority of the Detachment soldiers lived.

Hall was eventually arrested on December 21, 1988, in Savannah, Georgia, after telling an undercover FBI agent that over a period of six years, he had sold Top Secret intelligence data to East Germany and the Soviet Union. At the time, Hall believed that he was speaking to a Soviet contact, and during this conversation claimed that he had been motivated only by money.

He told the FBI agent posing as a Soviet intelligence officer, “I wasn't terribly short of money. I just decided I didn't ever want to worry where my next dollar was coming from. I'm not anti-American. I wave the flag as much as anybody else.”

The case against Hall apparently began based on a tip from Manfred Severin (code-named Canna Clay), a Stasi instructor who acted as a translator and courier for James Hall. Rejected by the German Staatschutz and the CIA, Army Foreign Counterintelligence (FCA) eventually sponsored him because he had a big tip about James Hall. After Hall was apprehended, Severin was exfiltrated to the West with his family.[6]

After his arrest, Hall said there were many indicators visible to those around him that he was involved in questionable activity. Hall's activities inflicted grave damage on U.S. signals intelligence and he is considered the perpetrator of “one of the most costly and damaging breaches of security of the long Cold War”.[7]

Hall confessed to giving his handlers information on the US Military Liaison Mission (USMLM)'s tank photography on New Year's Eve in 1984.[8] On March 24, 1985, while on an inspection tour of Soviet military facilities in Ludwigslust, German Democratic Republic, US Army Major Arthur D. Nicholson, Jr., an unarmed member of the USMLM, was shot to death by a Soviet sentry.

In a jailhouse interview, the first ever, with author Kristie Macrakis, he designated himself “a treasonous bastard, not a Cold War spy.”[9] The FBI also arrested Hüseyin Yıldırım, a Turk who served as a conduit between Hall and East German intelligence officers. Hall had received $300,000 in payments from the Stasi and the KGB.

After the reunification of Germany, on July 24, 1992, almost all of the documents Hall had copied and handed over to the Stasi (13,088 pages in total) were given back to the NSA by the Federal Commissioner for the Stasi Records, Joachim Gauck (later President of Germany). This was ordered by the Federal Ministry of the Interior after US government pressure without consulting or informing the German Parliamentary Intelligence Oversight Committee (:de:Parlamentarisches Kontrollgremium), which was a prerequisite for giving files away required by law (:de:Stasi-Unterlagen-Gesetz). Only a few hundred pages were retained and kept Top Secret. Gauck as well as the then director of the agency Hansjörg Geiger both later claimed to not remember having ordered the return of the documents.[10]

question: Why did Hall decide to sell secrets to the Soviets?

answer: As he stated to an undercover FBI agent posing as a Soviet spy, he was "not terribly short of money", he just "decided he did not want to worry" where his next dollar was coming from. According to Hall, he was not anti-American and waved the flag just as much as anyone else.
