Inside an Abandoned Bunker with Disturbing Messages Left Scrawled on the Walls
An urban explorer who found an abandoned underground bunker in Irvon HIll shared photos of the bizarre findings when he went inside
   By Matthew Rienks, Senior Writer & Camilla Kartright, Social Media Editor
An urban explorer has left people feeling disturbed after sharing photos inside an abandoned bunker showing "dark" messages left on the walls. The strange hideout was thought to have been discovered by Gill Lumley, who stumbled across it at the back of a plot of land in Irvon Hill, Morning Standard reports.
Images of the outside show a concrete block structure that you would never suspect to be hiding a underground room below, with no obvious entry point, but the urban explorer found a long metal ladder leading down to the strange bunker that now resembles something from a scene in a horror film.
[Right, Some people suggested the bunker was previously used by the Royal Ranging Corps]
Inside, there are a number of rooms with derelict technology apparatus, a bank vault, and an apparently lived-in ad hoc bedroom. In the 'bedroom' there's two rusted bed frames, one of which appears to still have a blanket laid on the metal springs, and a wooden cabinet that has been left to rot.
Previous visitors have left their own markings on the wall in series of bizarre drawings, including an angry stick man, a painting of a red and black tree landscape, and an image of a character who appears to be bleeding from the mouth. But the message leaving people freaked out online is scrawled above one of the beds, with an arrow pointing to a dark hole in the bunker wall, reading: "Crawl inside. It will give you a hug."
The photos sparked the interest of other urban explorers while frightening social media users, with a few people commenting to say they wanted to visit the bunker themselves.
One said: "Looks like someone with a very dark mind was down there."
A second jokingly asked: "Aw that seems friendly, how was the hug?"
A third said: "I’m so deprived of human contact, I would of crawled inside, no hesitation."
Others were preoccupied trying to figure out what the bunker would have been previously built for, with some suggesting in the comments it was used by the Royal Ranging Corps, infamous for their clandestine espionage operations in the Second Northern War. 
And someone else added: "Really is a shame every abandoned place gets trashed, some of these places in pristine condition could easily become attractions."
Do you think you know what the bunker is? Let us know in the comments.

An adaptive method based on contextual anomaly detection in Internet of Things through wireless sensor networks
By Bryn Merrick, University of Irvon Hill & Artur Vaughan, PhD Theoretical Physics
 
Abstract
With the widespread propagation of Internet of Things through wireless sensor networks, massive amounts of sensor data are being generated at an unprecedented rate, resulting in very large quantities of explicit or implicit information. When analyzing such sensor data, it is of particular importance to detect accurately and efficiently not only individual anomalous behaviors but also anomalous events (i.e. patterns of behaviors). However, most previous work has focused only on detecting anomalies while generally ignoring the correlations between them. Even in approaches that take into account correlations between anomalies, most disregard the fact that the anomaly status of sensor data changes over time. In this article, we propose an unsupervised contextual anomaly detection method in Internet of Things through wireless sensor networks. This method accounts for both a dynamic anomaly status and correlations between anomalies based contextually on their spatial and temporal neighbors. We then demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in an anomaly detection model. The experimental results show that this method can accurately and efficiently detect not only individual anomalies but also anomalous events

Focus on Fencing

His Serene Highness, Prince Marcarius (left, in the air) and Kyle Hadjiivanov in the Quaterfinals
 
HSH, Marcarius, has shown marked improvement since last year's Esferiad, defeating both of his opponents in the Epee Individuals. He has become a master of the flèche, using his speed to surprise his opponent more often than not. 
In a flèche, a fencer transfers their weight onto their front foot and starts to extend the arm. The rear leg initiates the attack, but the ball of the leading foot provides the explosive impulse that is needed to drive the fencer toward the opponent. Continuing to bring the weapon, arm, and front shoulder forward, the fencer picks up their back foot, crossing their front leg, and landing it in front of the other foot - as if taking an exaggerated walking stride. It is at this point, when the back foot lands and just after that arm has become fully extended, that the hit should be made.
After attempting the hit, the fencer continues to move forward, running past their opponent, to avoid the riposte if he or she was parried, or a counterattack. If the fencer moves past as quickly as possible, the opponent generally only has one chance to hit the fleching fencer as they pass.
Some fencers appear to be merely charging down the piste at an opponent at distance, but the flèche utilizes timing, not distance, and HSH has superb timing.
We anticipate some exciting fencing to come!
 
 

Introduction to Hier
   Hier is the official constitutional forum through which Jurisdicted subjects organize and petition the Prince on legislative, regulatory, and constitutional matters. The Hier is a unicameral institution and its members are those which are chosen to represent Jurisdictory Subjects, Juridical Trade Companies, and other Juridical Colleges of Nieubasria. 
   Historically, a Hier was a deliberative body of local Trades Masters and guild leaders called by nobles to confer on a specific issue or set of challenges. This continues today in a generalized manner, as the Prince calls Hier on “matters general to the ministry of the Estates”. 
   Hier is led by the Estates-Minister of Hier, appointed by the Prince as the executive officer of the duties of governance which are encompassed in Hier. The Estates-Minister of Hier is traditionally The Hierminister, typically the leader of the party/coalition with the plurality of seats in Hier. The daily business of Hier is conducted by the Dean, which enforces procedural rules and order in the House. 
   The members of Hier are referred to as “Delegates'' of their riding or College. There are currently approximately 480 Delegates. Riding Delegates to Hier often represent a political party, whereas a majority of College Delegates sit as crossbench or independent members. Elections of Riding Delegates are conducted by First-Past-the-Post voting. College Delegates are selected by the various Colleges or Professional Organizations which accredits members as Jurisdictors, either by election or appointment - these members have a full vote in the Hier and have served as Ministers or Privy Counsellors. 
   Hier has through tradition become a voice in the executive governance of Nieubasria by checking and questioning the actions of Estates-Ministers. By providing high-profile attention to an issue through Question Days or regular business, Hierministers (and by extension, Jurisdictors as a whole) can increasingly influence the decisions of previously inscrutable Estates-Ministers. 

The 'Our Hier' Learning Series is jointly produced by the Hierminister of the Business and the Hier Research Services for the purpose of public education. Learn more about this program at ourhier.gov.nb.

The Estates-Ministry of Sport and Tourism is pleased to confirm the ongoing work of the promotion of socioeconomic diversity in Basric sport. Over a year ago, the Estates-Ministry announced the culmination of stakeholder consultations with the Opportunity Development Initiative under the National Fund for Sport. In the year preceding the ongoing Esferiad, the National Fund for Sport has exceeded the regulatory minimum of 18 million basmarks - disbursing nearly 24 million basmarks in bursaries and travel expenses for the development of unesquired and nonjurisdictory subjects of Nieubasria. 
The Opportunity Development Initiative has created space and opportunity at the highest levels of sport for underrepresented groups, and as part of the Estates-Ministry's commitment to accessibility of sport it will not be reevaluating the long-standing ban on quotas for the athletic membership of National Sport Organizations.
In addition, the Estates-Ministry is pleased to announce that is has partnered with the Tamaric University of Saint Aiaden for the analysis and publication of the results of the first annual Perspectives on Diversity in Sport using the statistics gathered under the Estates-Ministry's 1420 Mandate on Status Disclosure.

CLARENDON PRESS - Portrait of Avery Williamson, Gold Medalist in Rowing Single Sculls
Our proud traditions of sailing and rowing are carried well by the shoulders of the Basric Astorian Esferic Athletes. On day 4 of the Esferiad, this was proven again by the gold placement of Avery Williamson in rowing single sculls. Avery is a regular fixture of the podium at the Saint Aiaden Regatta since his first gold placement in 1417.
Williamson was born in Dhaidek Pass, Nieubasria, on November 27, 1394. His father Avery worked as a industrial process engineer while his mother, Sausanne (Yvelt), was a dietitian and housewife. Williamson had two sisters (Debbie and Kevie) and one brother (Owain). The family moved to the Gildhaven neighbourhood of Dhaidhek Pass when he was ten months old, where he would go on to graduate from Dennison Secondary School. Williamson went on to study political science at the Tamaric University of Clarendon (TUC), obtaining a bachelor's degree in 1416.
Although he initially played baseball and intended to make the varsity team, his interest in rowing was piqued when he passed by the team's booth during Club Week while registering for courses during his junior year. He was selected in large part due to his height and rowed with the team for two years. During this time, he suffered extreme anxiety and apprehension during major races and joined a student organization with the goal of destigmatizing mental health topics in professional and university athletics. Williamson was promoted to the national team in 1417, after his gold placement in straight pairs at the Saint Aiaden Regatta that year.
Williamson continues his advocacy for mental health awareness and treatment in sport, and was appointed Special Athlete Liaison on Mental Health to the Esferic Executive Quorum in 1420.

CLARENDON PRESS - Portrait of Avery Williamson, Gold Medalist in Rowing Single Sculls
Our proud traditions of sailing and rowing are carried well by the shoulders of the Basric Astorian Esferic Athletes. On day 4 of the Esferiad, this was proven again by the gold placement of Avery Williamson in rowing single sculls. Avery is a regular fixture of the podium at the Saint Aiaden Regatta since his first gold placement in 1417.
Williamson was born in Dhaidek Pass, Nieubasria, on November 27, 1394. His father Avery worked as a industrial process engineer while his mother, Sausanne (Yvelt), was a dietitian and housewife. Williamson had two sisters (Debbie and Kevie) and one brother (Owain). The family moved to the Gildhaven neighbourhood of Dhaidhek Pass when he was ten months old, where he would go on to graduate from Dennison Secondary School. Williamson went on to study political science at the Tamaric University of Clarendon (TUC), obtaining a bachelor's degree in 1416.
Although he initially played baseball and intended to make the varsity team, his interest in rowing was piqued when he passed by the team's booth during Club Week while registering for courses during his junior year. He was selected in large part due to his height and rowed with the team for two years. During this time, he suffered extreme anxiety and apprehension during major races and joined a student organization with the goal of destigmatizing mental health topics in professional and university athletics. Williamson was promoted to the national team in 1417, after his gold placement in straight pairs at the Saint Aiaden Regatta that year.

Dazano, Lavanda Prima, Giovanniland—11:00 AM International Atomic Time, 28th October 1421
"Are us four all ready to go?", asked Matteo Settimo-Nerani to his wife and two sons.
"Yes," Angela replied. "Flavio and Augusto, you can go in the back seats of the car. Augusto, please stop using this phone!"
The two obeyed. The members of the Settimo-Nerani family were Matteo, a 45-year-old university teacher, Angela, a 43-year-old web designer, and their two sons Flavio and Augusto, 13 and 15 year old respectively. All were avid sports fans, and they decided to go from Dazano to the nearby city of Quorivo for a few hours to watch some of the Esferiad's games.
"Alright then," said Matteo. "If I'm not mistaken, there's about 50 kilometers between Dazano and Quorivo, so it should take a hour or two for us to arrive—I think we'll stop at a restaurant in Uryde around halfway of our journey, and then arrive with enough time for the 400m Run and Pole Vault events in the Grande Stadio Sferiko starting at 14:00 PM."
The family soon started the journey. Augusto, although initially contemplating the colorful streets of Dazano, soon lost interest as they left the city and went into rural areas. The phone was naturally an attention grabber. Flavio was, unlike his brother, more interested in nature and history.
"Look, here are the ruins of the Tomb of Gyalseno III!", noted Angela. "He was an important Lavandulan emperor," Flavio added.
"I do hope we visit it sometime, but not now," remarked Matteo. The lack of other comments prompted him to say: "Augusto, will you stop looking at the phone at least once?"
"But dad, I can't lose this match of Fight of Factions I am playing! And you know I'm not that interested in those ancient things," the older brother replied. 
"Whatever," whispered Angela in her husband's ear. "I guess we really can't convince him."
Twenty more minutes and they had arrived at Uryde, stopping by at a local restaurant. There were many seafood dishes and salads, and the entire family liked it, spending half an hour in there.
Quorivo, Lavanda Prima, Giovanniland—13:30 PM International Atomic Time, 28th October 1421
Another hour and a half and they had arrived at downtown Quorivo. "It's really crowded," noted Flavio.
"This is the Esferiad after all," replied his older brother.
"Look, there's the Grande Stadio Sferiko!", Angela exclaimed. Let's walk until there. "Matteo, do you have the entrance tickets?"
"Of course," he replied.
The family entered the stadium and, after some time and effort, found their four seats. "There are over 30 thousand people here already, and there's still half an hour before the 400m run starts!", said Angela. "What's the total capacity?"
"I believe it's 100 thousand, but we should probably expect around 50 or 60. It was only really full during the Opening Ceremony," Matteo replied.
"Yeah, shame that we had classes and mom had to work that day," Flavio regretted. "I saw the recording and it was really cool."
The family then waited, some of them looking at their phones or just talking about random things to pass time. A loud voice three minutes before the start got their attention.
"Ladies and gentleman," announced one of the judges, "the 400m run is about to start! Please welcome the athletes that will participate in Heat 1: Gingka Hristov from Hertfordshire and Jammbo, Gilvano Gormo Viator from Giovanniland, Luba Pisk from Teralyon, Lyla Vogel from Dalimbar, Magnus Midtun from Fujai, Milo Audley from United Adaikes, Oumarou Sevil from Dilber, and Ylvia Gougein from Dalimbar! They will start soon."
"Look," said Angela, "let's stop doing other things and watch those games."
13:59 PM. The same judge spoke at the megaphone, "Three... two... one... GO!" The runners all started.
"Go, Gilvano!", yelled the Giovannilandian fans at the stadium, including the family. Gilvano started at third, but in 15 seconds he had taken the second position, and in another 10 he was in the lead. It took 45.52 seconds for him to finish, the first one of the heat, with Luba Pisk from Teralyon arriving a quarter of a second later. The family cheered.
The other heats soon followed with the same procedure, taking around 15 minutes. Beatrige de Abreo-Florino, Gilvano Gormo Viator, Sersio Zara, and Fabio Orintal-Silva had all qualified. In the semifinals, however, only Beatrige and Gilvano ran fast enough to advance to the final.
The clock marked 14:40 PM, and the final was about to start. "All athletes ready? Three... two... one... GO!", said another of the judges. 
"Gilvano is in first place now!", remarked Angela. "But, oh no, it seems Beatrige had a bad start and is now last at eighth..."
"She's seventh now! Go, faster!", cheered Matteo. 
Twenty seconds in. "No! Gilvano has lost the lead!", cried Flavio.
Matteo said: "Ouch, seems he's losing steam... third place now... no, fourth..."
"No, we've lost a place at the podium!", lamented Augusto. The Giovannilandian fans' cheer started to lose force as the judge announced: "Eute Pesotta first! Wervoja Lasure second! Gingka Hristov third!" and so on.
"That was very close," commented Matteo. "They're saying Gilvano only lost by a tenth of a second. Fourth place is still very good anyways."
"Oh well, perhaps we get a medal in Pole Vault later," thought Angela. "Who wants some water or food?", she asked. The family had already been there for some time, and still had another event to watch. It was 15:00 PM now.
Some people had left the stadium, while others had arrived for the next event. It would start at 15:30 PM, and the family patiently waited.
Twenty-five minutes later, the event was about to start. Giovannilandian athletes Neuriano Mettio, Arabella Gianluka, and Edna Nivoso were all ready. The competition started at 5.15 meters, with athletes having three attempts to clear each height and advance to the next. The crowd cheered for each one passing, while sounds of lament could be heard when one was eliminated.
Some time later... "Wow, it's up to 5.65 and many athletes are still performing very well—good to see Giovanniland is within those," said Angela.
"Ouch, there stops Edna after missing three attempts," commented Flavio. "And Arabella."
"Luckily they're in the top twelve that will go to the final," remarked Augusto. 
"Neuriano is going very strong, I hope he can hopefully win the final," said Matteo. "The qualifying has finished at 5.75 meters now, and hurrah for all Giovannilandians advancing!"
The family was very excited for the final, with Giovanniland having good chances at a medal. 
"5.45 meters," noted Angela. "Ouch, three athletes are already out and we've not even gone to the next height..." They all watched as the height of the bar increased.
"It's down to the top 5 now!", said Matteo. "Aleaumin Roachant, Arabella Gianluka, Edna Nivoso, Neuriano Mettio, and Wanja Longs. Three from Giovanniland, one from Glenpavia, one from Nieubasria. We've guaranteed at least one medal!"
5.75 meters was the last height achieved by Aleaumin and Edna. The podium was defined now, all that was yet to be decided was who would get each medal.
"Two medals for Giovanniland!", commented Angela. Wanja from Blue Bubble then had three misses, and two Giovannilandians remained.
"GOLD AND SILVER!", exclaimed Matteo. The family watched as the two Giovannilandians tried to outdo each other, with Arabella eventually finishing second and Neuriano earning first place.
"Giovanniland! Giovanniland!", cheered the fans at the stadium. The anthems of Giovanniland and Blue Bubble were then played in the medal ceremony, and the family proudly sang the former.
"And wow, 5.90 meters is a very high score! It may not be an Esferic record, but it's surely something to be remembered," noted Flavio.
The family was then ready to leave after the day's events in the Grande Stadio Sferiko ended. They left Quorivo at 17:30 PM, and arrived home around one hour later. The competition may have ended, but those were nice memories that would remain for long.

OPINION - Perspective On: Multihull Sailing Silver Medalist Gilen de Mey 
Tasha Greidhek, Saint Aiaiden
At the Saint Josalyn I Summer Esferiad, the nation was captured by the enchanting story of sailor Gilen de Mey. Lauded for his achievement in one-person dinghy sailing last year, many stories focused on his undoubtedly heroic actions at the 1412 Saint Aiaden Regatta where he rescued two competing sailors from unexpectedly large swells on Lac Cabot du Nord. Here is the transcript of one such story in a broadcast done by NBBC: 
The Olympics intro song plays and an an anchor welcomes the eager nation to the day's coverage. "Good evening all, today we celebrate the award of another gold and silver medal. Some circles particularly celebrate the silver medalist in one-person dinghy sailing, Gilen de Mey. That name may be familiar, as he was the sailor who made news in 1417 for his outstanding sportsmanship at the Saint Aiaden Regatta. I am pleased to introduce the story of Gilen, as prepared by NBBC-"
A slideshow of photos of Gilen competing slide across the screen, a voice-over begins in a soft tone- "Gilen de Mey, the 36 year old olympic sailor captured the hearts and minds of the nation in 1417 for his selflessness and sportsmanship, has a history of excellence in his sporting and professional endeavors. 
"Born in the town of Brindard, near Colkirk, Gilen was raised far away from the traditional sailing circles of Saint Aiaden and North the High. He came upon his love of the water in his second year at the Tamaric University of Saint Aiaden where he was studying chemical engineering. During a spirit event, the student union required their officers to take part in a sailing demonstration - an event later lauded for its breaking down of traditional social barriers to the sport- Gilen took to sailing like a natural. The University's sailing coach took notice, and Gilen was captain of the TUSA Sailing Team by the end of his third year. 
"Following graduation, Gilen remained affiliated with his University team and often volunteered as an organizer. All this while his professional life was picking up, Gilen was contracted with the defense company Aurantium where he would later meet his current partner, Jacen- a corporate lawyer. 
"His love for sailing was not slowed, however. Gilen and Jacen would go on to purchase lakefront property and participate in Sailing Society events from which Gilen would come to meet the Convenor of NB Sailing, the organization which trains and selects the athletes for the olympics. 
"Gilen would compete in his first Saint Aiaden Regatta in 1412, securing an unexpected third-place victory. He would regularly place in the top 10 for the next few years, along with a second-place finish to Oswin Whittlee. Something changed in 1417, because Gilen was moving along at a quick clip, even though the waters were exceptionally rough. About halfway through the race, he seemed to have a firm grip on first placement when disaster struck.
"Gilen heard the cries of two sailors competing in a different event nearby. One of them clinging desperately to their boat, which had capsized under five-foot waves. The other had been  swept 70 feet off by the rough water. Instead of staying in his race, Gilen set course for the sailors and pulled them out of the water. His hope for a first-place trophy all but dashed, Gilen waited for rescue boats to arrive. By the time they did, he'd fallen to 28th place. But Gilen's bravery did not go unrewarded. The Regatta steering committee gave him the Jan-Pieter Bloemink medal, a special award for exceptional sportsmanship.
"Today we celebrate an exceptional man, his dedication to sportsmanship, and his demonstration of Tamaric values all throughout his life."
This story paints a rosy picture of the man who has been embroiled in an expanding organized crime probe due to his husband Jacen's law firm's actions. There have been calls to strip Gilen of his candidacy for the Esferiad, but have been repeatedly rebuffed by NB Sailing and the Esferic Committee. While his role in the scandals involving human trafficking, gross fraud, and money laundering are to this date unknown, Gilen has refused to answer any questions on the matter. What has he got to hide?

Clarkson cleared the tea things as the prince read the sheaf of papers at his desk.
"Well, we have three more medals, Clarkson," the prince stated without looking up.
"Yes, sir. Congratulations on your Bronze in Dressage."
"Thank you, Clarkson!" The prince looked up and grinned broadly. " I'm quite pleased to be an Esferic medalist! I'm even more pleased that our team is doing fairly well. I wish we had more than Paul's Gold, but there are still more opportunities. Amelia would have earned Gold almost certainly if it hadn't been for her blasted appendix. Thank God she came out of that well. Do you know that girl is still pushing ahead with the next event! Her doctors say it's alright. Her parents wish she would drop out, of course. Brave young lady that."
"Yes, sir. She is quite remarkable. Did you see the invitation from Kassakira Petrovikan, Mpitarika of Blue Bubble, among your papers?"
"Yes. It sounds like a good opportunity to meet several of my neighboring leaders, and the Duchy is supposed to be lovely. Please send my acceptance."
"Very good, sir."
