President anti-candidte Mussu is participating in political activities in Korea. A report from minister Taru.

Presidential anti-candidate Mussu anti-campaigning to enthusiastic supporters.

We have installed sun panels in Ladonia. The only thing we still haven’t is some sun. During the winter season the sun is hidden behind the mountain. Our scientists are working on the problem to get the sun to rise higher. We expect a fast solution.

Minister and president candidate Norbert Johnson has found a cheap and rather simple solution to the world energy problems. Just follow the instructions:

I have initiated the process of reversing the effects of global warming. I have taken off the doors to 6 stored refrigerators and freezers on my cabin property which is located on teh border of Michigan and Wisconsin. I hooked them up to a selfmade series of batteries connected to a power inverter. I am testing the local area to determine the fesiability of this project. So far it has a definite effect for two feet in front of each refrigerator, and up to three feet in front of the freezers. It is keeping the snow cooler especially if you face the back side in the direction of the sun allowing for the shadow to remain on the snow (this helps a lot). For this to be scientific, I set up three areas for the experiment. One area with refigerators with the doors removed and turned on, one with the doors removed and not plugged in, and one with one door on and the unit on and the other with the door off and the unit on. I set up a placebo effect to fool the snow by also setting up the doors to appear as refrigerators and freezers, placing a buzzing speaher in on to sound as if the refrigerator was still on. If this works, I think we can sell the Idea to the Whitehouse as a novel way to restore global temprature to its normal settings. Do you think that Ladonia will issue a patent for this discovery?

Construct of the batteries used:

1) locate aluminum beer cans on the side of the road. This is a natural byproduct found near taverns, bars and liquor stores as well as city parks after highschool students party.

Cut the top and bottom off. Then cut lengthwise and streighten out as a sheet.

2) remove copper pipes from your neighbors home (be sure you replace them with PVC pipes painted red so the neighbor wont know and his water service remains on.

Cut the pipe (preferably ones of one inch or better) into 5.5 inch sections. Then cut them lengthwise and hammer them into a sheet.

3) find a sufficient quantity of wool cloth (found on sleeping homeless in Washington DC, especially in the parks). Remove it carefully and replace with a space blanket so the homeless feller doesn’t realize the change of temprature.

Cut the wool cloth into sheets that can envelope the copper plate you made.

4) Fold the aluminum in half to a size sufficient to envelop the copper plate you made.

cover the copper plate you made first with the wool cloth, then with the aluminum sheet as an envelope. When that is accomplished, soder a wire connecting all copper plates ONLY to the copper plates. Then soder a wire to the Aluminum beer plates.

5) locate a small plastic cooler complete with lid (found at tailgate parties). You have to be athletic to retrieve them because the owner and his group usually will try and emulate football players and try to tackle you so they can win the game ball (in this case… the cooler), however, if you are fast enough, you reach the goal point first and WIN!!!. But remember to keep on running because for some reason they are bad sports and will continue even after you leave the park..

6) locate plastic milk jugs (usually found at a local store but sometimes there are milk delivery persons in the area and they can be found on unattended milk trucks). FInd a lot of kittens that look hungery and give them the milk. They will love you for this. Cut the plastic container into sheets that will separate the cooler into 4 chambers. then place them into the game cooler.

7) once you separate the game cooler into for chambers, place the plates of copper/wool/aluminum beer cans, into the winning game cooler in series of 16 plates each chamber (should create 4 sections in small cooler).

Hook up all copper plates to copper plates and aluminum to aluminum, with one wire extending for the copper and one for the aluminum so that it can be connected to by the power inverter.

9) Mix up a salt water solution of 15% salt 85% water. Be sure the salt is completely dissolved. Then pour the mix into each chamberto a point that almost covers the highest point of the bank of sheets, leaving the sodered wires above the water line.

You now have a 12 volt battery that can power an inverter. You must repeat this process for additional amperage necessary to power larger inverters. The benefit of this is that you are recycling the old refigerators, beer cans, neighbors pipes and empty plastic bottles. You are also providing food for furry critters, and aerobic exercise for yourself. It is a win win situation. xcept for the cooler game loosers who will actively persue you for the rest of your life… but that is covered in the aerobic exercise plan…and you didn’t have to pay for it!

Ladonia is represented in the exhibition on micronations arranged by Peter Coffin. It is taking place in Palais de Tokyo in Paris.

Ladonia has now a Surgeon General. R L Levine from Los Angeles has been appointed. If any Ladonian is in need of surgery, contact the surgery booking office, Wotan City, Ladonia (Next to the Bar “The Screemin’ Bass”.

Surgeon General ready to save lifes

It is not too late to run for president. Still anyone who wants to become president of Ladonia can register. Just write a comment or to our administration.

President candidate Daniel Kong is promising:

“I’m offering free sneakers who wants one?
Everyone who votes me will get a pair of cool reptile green sneakers (or only one if you are undecided, you’ll get the other pair after you vote me) a bandanna with the inscription “A vote for kong you can’t go wrong”, a ladonian flag and a free energy drink (green).

Daniel Kong
Presidential candidate 2007
Vote for Kong!”

Mussu is working in his campaign with activism:

“As an anarchist our presidential anti-candidate Mussu is critical towards all state violations of rights, not just towards violations against teddy animal rights. Today Mussu participated in a demonstration condemning extrajudicial killings of political activists in Philippines.”
(Says election secretary and minister Taru)

Here you can see our presidential anti-candidate Mussu spending a
major holiday (Chinese new year) in political work. Daechuri is a
Korean village resisting the expansion of a US military base because
villagers are about to loose their lands and homes. See Mussu in front
of a Daechuri house already pulled down by the government and the
village mural displayed in Mussu’s badge.

University of Ladonia

The Royal Ladonia Academy of Science has decided to select the entire staff of the Ladonia Scientific Advisory Committee, LSAC, and its chairman, the former professor and inventor of the famous “Schmetterling Dive Bomber” Karl-Heinz Mühde, as the winners of the 2007 Mobile Prize for their development of a nucleic bomb. The prize, the world’s most distinguished scientific award, comprizes a statue depicting the city of Mobile, AL. and a sum which, following the ancient rules made up by the great donor Alfred Mobile, is to be kept unnown.

The academy’s justification runs: ” In the quest for a higher European unification rings today the call of the scientist. The winners have adopted, in the true sense of this appeal, the task of strengthening our society by the nucleic bomb, which undoubtedly will prevent us from the peril of extraterrestrial influence. We, the Academy, congratulate the winners and rest assured that the invention will be a smash hit.”

The nucleic bomb could be explained as a further development of the nucular bomb. The nucleus contains of Happy-DNA wich, when spread over hostile areas, will make love instead of war.

Some words about Mr. Professor Mühde: Born 1901 in Hessen, Germany. Joined the party in 1906 following extended political awareness, fought at Flandern between 1915 to 1920 when he was captured by the French police. Extradited to Ladonia in 1996.

The Schmetterling Dive Bomber: An invention, or rather a new method, to penetrate a defence line by plunging through the opposition hypersonically waving the arms in a butterfly manner all the way into the net, while making a screaming noice. Mr. Mühde perfected this method while participating in the Reims Penitentiary Soccer Team.
