The current Greenmarkian President, Jules N’Dong, has set the date of the next federal election as September 6, 2010. Widely seen to be the favorite in the coming election, N’Dong has prospered with his country on a platform of governmental reforms and green technology stimulus packages while effectively sidestepping accusations of corruption within his party – extending in some cases to N’dong himself. Opposition party leader, Adrian Clarke says he welcomes the opportunity to face the country in the upcoming election, citing a widespread undercurrent of dissatisfaction with the current government’s policies among the electorate. Neither party seems ready to publicly address the growing pressure being applied internationally for Greenmark to crack down on the growing number of Greener Good terrorists living and/or training in the remote regions of the country. Officially, N’Dong’s government has financed counter-terrorism measures and been cooperating with international efforts to hunt down terrorist leader Darwin Libris, but off the record, many within the government feel the attacks will not stop until these projects are prioritized.
Redonian FirstBank website target of Greener Good Cyberattack
March 10, 2010
The Redonian FirstBank website was effectively shut down for 18 hours on Thursday, following what is believed to be a retaliatory cyberattack for the bank’s freezing of Greener Good terrorist Darwin Libris’ accounts earlier this month. The attack began with the sending of Trojan-laced emails to bank employees, made to look as if they came from other employees and encouraging recipients to click on a link or attachment. Anti-virus experts at MacAfee commented that the attack took advantage of a zero-day vulnerability within the company’s internal internet browsing software. The attacks, which appear to have originated from IP addresses in Yellowvania, have been reported to Redonian Law Enforcement.
Drought in Yellowvania drives up local food prices
March 18, 2010
Continuing dry weather in Northern Yellowvania this summer following an exceptionally dry spring has lead to significant reductions in crop yield – a fact that is already being reflected in the price of Yellowvanian staples in local grocery stores. River flow rates are at lows not seen since the old “drought of the century” in 1969. The drought also promises to have a trickle-down effect on meat prices later in the year, as fodder is now also in short supply. Meteorologists at the Yellowvanian meteorological institute say that global warming is the likely culprit, with 2010 having the warmest spring months since standardized data began being collected some 150 years ago.
