This thread is dedicated to the region of New York (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/90173/page=display_region/region=new_york). The politics of our region shall be done here as well as regional roleplaying as the regional bulletin board just cannot keep up with us. I'd like to keep this thread limited to New York region members only unless of course it is a matter that involves someone else. In that case, please I welcome you.

"SPCC Regulation Act
A resolution to increase the quality of the world's environment, at the expense of industry.


Category: Environmental
Industry Affected: All Businesses

Description: SPCC (Spill Prevention Control & Countermeasures)

Oil leaks; from out of date pipelines or huge storage tanks/refineries can cause enormous environmental damage. The cost to taxpayers and future generations of the world due to a mass spill on land or at sea could be catastrophic. Millions of barrels of crude oil are lost to the oil-hungry nations of the world each year. We must unite to endorse the use of double-hulled pipelines and storage/transport vehicles worldwide. This would prevent environmental disasters like the one caused by the train wreck in North Korea in 2004, that killed 3000 civilians, or the underground pipeline leak outside San Francisco, where 15 Million gallons of crude oil leaked into the Pacific Ocean affecting between 300 and 600 acres of marshland near Suisun Bay.

Oil storage tanks occasionally leak. The risk of leakage increases as the oil tank ages. If the oil storage tank is underground, a small oil leak may go undetected for a long period of time. When an oil leak occurs, it often contaminates the surrounding soil. In an area such as Long Island, this contamination eventually gets into the underground aquifer that is the sole source of Long Island’s drinking water. Therefore, oil spills in areas such as Long Island and other large cities are considered very serious. In other areas, oil spills are also serious, but may not contaminate the ground water to as great an extent. Oil spill cleanup steps are mandated by regulatory agencies and can be very expensive.

This resolution would be a huge cost the Oil Industry at first, but in the long run ~ would help lower the cost of fuel and lower the cost of environmental clean ups ~ which as we know, are sooner or later passed on to the consumers of the world. This SPCC Regulation Act would benefit the fishing, tourism, shipbuilding industries, and trucking/transport industries.

"Ban Single-Hulled Tankers" was an earlier resolution, passed by the United Nations back on April 25th, 2003 and was implemented on April 28th, 2003.
That resolution had, Votes For: 16664 & Votes Against: 2670

This proposal, is an updated extention of that resolution. "

Yes:

No:

Rock the vote!

I send a telegram to every new nation that enters the region, unless they depart before I am online. It goes like this:

"Welcome to the region of New York. We appreciate your visit and hope you decide to make New York your permanent residence.

Check out the regional message board for current discussions and for regional voting and discussion on pending UN Resolutions. "


What do you think? Do you think that is fine or is there something I should add or delete?

Thanks for the input and helping me do the Delegate job better.

Sounds good to me UD.

No:

The Confederacy of Undivulged Principles will be unaffected by this measure as it's populace work only 10-20 hours a week.

There is the possibility of a major uprising & revolution in the Empire of Layarteb. It could affect the balance of the region as we know it!

New York Region:

Confederacy has upgraded it's DR (Defense Rating) from Neutral to Elevated. :shock:

Defense forces have been mobilized and PDI (Primary Defense Initiative) has been implemented. 8)

WARNING! Violation of Undivulged Principles Air, Space, Sea, & Land Territorial Integrity will result in severe and dire repercussions. Our security will not be compromised. :evil:

Layarteb is currently in a state of Civil War!

http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=146482

Uller Pens, Diplomatic Atache for Foreign Affairs in Undivulged Principles has issued a declaration by the Confederacy of Undivulge Principles as Regional Delegate of New York.

The contents of this declaration are restricted but it is believed to contain a warning to the Southeastern Virginian military contingent of the Layarteb Commonwealth not to moblize and enter the region of New York. Pending NYRT authorization such an act will be construed as an invasion of New York Regional Sovereignty with appropriate repurcussions .

Caratan looked over the memo from his bunker inside Freedom City. He shrugged his shoulders. "What the hell does he want? Can't he see I'm fighting a war here. If I stick my head out the Emperor is going to chop it off." He turned to his aide and dictated a response. "Please accept my apology for my inability to attend. I fear for my life that the Emperor will take it if I leave the sanctity of my hideout. Perhaps we may meet after the Emperor and his opressive regime no longer exist." He turned and looked at the map. "Just one more city men! Layarteb City will be ours by tomorrow morning!" They cheered and inside Layarteb City, the fighting intensified. Loyal to the Emperor was a single division of infantry and armor. There were another two facing them with air support. It was only a matter of time!

Confederacy of Undivulged Principles has raised it's DR to Pre-War. :shock:

Emergency powers have been delegated and work rates have been increased by volunteers to 30 hours a week. Expected boost to economy of 150%. Expected volunteers 25 million. 8)

Standing Army to be increased from 4.5 million to 12 million conscripts. :P

Treasury increased 1.4 trillion silver seers. :wink:

The Emperor has been forced to flee.

http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=147248

Response to emergency military measures in Undivulged Principles has been electfifying.

125 million volunteers have come forward for military service. Economic improvement has been rated to be 300% by year's end due to patriotic response by citizens in light of foreign threats. :)

Proposed sites for Conference:

1. Three locations in Confederacy of Undivulged Principles can be utilized. Tropical Beach Resort of Irudiu, the Regional Forum of Undivulged Principles in Orissant, Foreign Relations Building in the City of the Government of Undivulged Principles.

2. CSS Alabama, UD Carrier Fleet located in international waters in southern Gulf of New York.

3. Liberal Liberals. As a nation without arms and no weapons allowed in the nation it is an ideal location for a peaceful conference.

Please respond, and suggestions are welcome.

I would like to suggest these nations be placed on the map, if they want to be represented.

Tudsre, New Arktopia, The Long Islands, and The Mob of Rome. :D

Caratan has approved of going to Liberal Liberals.

It will be placed tentatively in Liberal Liberals pending other peoples votes. How about another 24 hours on the vote?

Very well we shall abide by such.

I will be happy to host this conference. Our people are overjoyed to have been chosen and you are sure to have a most enjoyable stay.

If its ok with everyone i'd like to be considered to be put on the region map as i plan to stay in New York.

I would also like to know if the conference that is about to be held in Liberal Liberals has to do with Layarteb's current state. If this is so then i would like to be considered to attend as i would very much like to see the Emeperor return to his seat of power.

-HIRGIZSTAN-

Confederacy of Undviulged Principles cordially welcomes your request to join the conference, as all members, new and old, are welcome to the conference.

I think 5 or 6 members is enough for a quorum. As of now we have Layarteb, RightWing Conservatives, Liberal Liberals, Undivulged Principles, and Hirgiztan.

Indeed there is no need for more as this is a simple conference.

Almost got ejected from the UN today for submitting a proposal on game mechanics. Ah, no big deal.

You are not allowed to submit proposals on game mechanics. Where you submit them is anyone's guess.

Yep. That's what I did on Halloween, this...pretty pathetic huh?

:lol: There are a lot of people that would laugh that I spend as much time as I do RPing this board (I have a couple of other nations), being I am 35 (I spend about an hour a day here).

However, my workweek is ridiculous (akin to what it would be in my nation), so I have a plethora of free time.

Undivulged Principles is the nation most attuned to my beliefs except somehow my military budget went downhill. I explain it away as efficiency but I think I might have picked the disarm choice accidentally.

I don't know how I went from around the top 1000 in Arms to 111,000. :evil:

I have the feeling that only you and I are active members on this board :shock:

No...i'm still here...hiding! :lol:

EOL Storefront once again open

::Bows slightly::

I do read the forums, however I preffer to remain mostly nuetral (and the fact that I haven't RP'd from way back in the AOL days)

But my policy on nutrality may soon change and my small nation may become more involved in the grander scale of things

Even the smallest nations can shake the world. :D

The regional conference slated to take place in Liberal Liberals has been postponed and pending possible relocation will remain in Liberal Liberals and the date set for June 12.

EOL Emperor, please respond on whether or not you are willing to attend the conference, or wish to have it relocated (EOL territory is not an alternative due to recent events but other locales may be suggested).

Other regional members that have not responded thus far can also attend the conference.

- Undivulged Principles - UN Delegate, New York

The following is a list of nations confirmed attending the New York Conference slated for June 12:

Confederacy of Undivulged Principles
The Corporate Democracy of Right Wing Conservatives
The Republic of Liberal Liberals
The Dictatorship of Hirgizstan

Other countries may join the conference up to June 12. :D

Yes we are willing to join and at that location. The Emperor will send delgates via Learjet. Where may they land? Also what are the provisions on escorts? All of our delegates travel with bodyguards, heavily armed at that.

:: Map Updated ::

Wow, the EOL right now has a combined population of 3.475 billion people. Damn we're populated.

All weapons are banned from Liberal Liberals, even their police.

The only weapons that a person can bring in is themselves.

The Emperor can have as many delegates (including bodyguards) as he likes, they just can't bring weapons.

You only added one nation to the map?

The Confederacy of Undivulged Principles DR has been downgraded to Elevated. Standing Army still stands at increased size and workweek has been downgraded to 20 hours. Surpluses still earmarked for defense while populace remains alert.

The delegates are very wary about the policy on weapons. How can we be sure that some terrorist nut or some psychopathic anti-EOL loon has smuggled in a weapon?

OOC: You know if you want me to add any important links to the main post just say the word.

OOC:

Heh. It seems that I live in Layarteb :lol:

You know you want to be a part of this region then!

From the nation revered for its Navy comes a brand-new class of ships. The Vampire Class Medium Assault Carriers have been rated #1 in their class and they come with sophistication, firepower, and top-of-the-line systems. Would the EOL cheap out on anything military? Never! This class of ship is available now from the EOL with savings of over $3B! Buy now and buy for life!

It has been a while for personal as well as having difficulty getting on the forum when I had a chance to post. :oops:

Anyway, major happenings in the Confederacy of Undivulged Principles, as well as the major events in the holdings of Layarteb. Events of Undivulged Principles only recently unfolding and with limited media access (all channels have been linked to a government agency) the situation is unknown. :?

Update due soon........... :?: :!: :?:

Kristen Demor - Liberal Liberals policy to all who enter their domain is the same. Using technology developed primarily in the Confederacy of Undivulged Principles (such as sonic and nano inhibitors) all migrants (foreign and domestic) passing the border are funneled through disarmament centers. All diplomats are sent to a unique facility, for added security. This facility is sanitised from human involvement, all operations being run by an advanced integrated operating system. From there officials are ferried by special train to a remote international embassy city (where all foreign diplomats reside). From this locale all events are planned and implemented. This is done for the express security of the diplomats.

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

N E W S F L A S H ! ! ! ! !

Kristen Demor - The Republic of Liberal Liberals has just reported it has resigned it's seat on the council of the United Nations. This shocking event was unforeseen and the possible repercussions of this clamity are unfathomable!

THE CONFEDERACY OF UNDIVULGED PRINCIPLES WILL NOT BROADCAST ON THIS CHANNEL UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

i am a new nation in the region... could i get some lands in south jamica

After one month time and you still being in this region and active we shall add you to the map.

President Anderson stands in front of his large picture window overlooking the courtyard of the Presidential building in the center of his Confederacy. He closes the blinds and flicks on the lights, bathing the room in an eerie glow. He stands behind his desk and lights a cigar, before addressing his council

"Gentlemen and ladies, I have called you forth to ask the advice of my trusted council. We have been members of New York for a little while, and now I feel it is time to make our presence known. Let them know we are here, to have them put us on this map. We all fled our former region due to the all pervasive force of our former District Attorney who's name, of course, is still punishable by incarceration if it is to be mentioned, isn't that right acting DA?"

President Anderson turns and taps a birdcage housing a rather large black raven.

He turns back to his council who all nod there heads in agreement.

"Settled" He turns and heads for the door. I will go make the proposal now.

The Emperor sat with the message and nodded his head, "Yes this sounds about right." He turned to his aide. "Reply with the questioning of where they would like to be placed." The aide nodded and departed.

I'm curious about your region and would liek to learn more. Is it possible to recieve some information.

I'm curious about your region and would liek to learn more. Is it possible to recieve some information.

What kind of specifics are you looking for. We have an active region with a great UN Delegate who posts the resolutions on the bulleten board and from there we tell him who approves or doesn't and then he votes that way. We don't RP much but we do the occassional stuff here and there but nothing major. We are active though, just most of our communications go in the bulleten board. (yeah I know my spelling of that is god-awful)!!

Thanks for the information. I started a region that has 3 nations includin mine. We are all rom NY so we may be thinking of moving

I am sure you are welcome. We don't deny the right of people to come to our region. We only dislike trouble-makers. If you want send a rep to our region and scope it out for a few days.

Go to the regional board and tell me where you would like to be, on the map.

Done and done!

Saw it. I'll update it a little later tonight.

Demoliation and Fmjphoenix have been added to the map.

The Emperor of Layarteb is pleased to see that finally there has been settlement along the border, particularly in the unoccupied regions where it is most needed. The uncivilized beasts of that region must be tamed in order to maintain security for all nations within the reigon of New York!

It has been quite some time since I have been able to come to the regional forum and I must say I am very impressed by what you have done with the place.

Everyone go vote!!! I have already voted for Kerry today, and he will be the winner.

The Empire of Demoliation would like to ask permission from the region councel to begin an exploration and expansion mission into the unclaimed lands. I make this announcement in hope that other leaders can see the potential in this project. Along with permission I request aid in from other regions in the form of construction, excavting, mining, and military if possible. This will create many jobs not only for Demoliation but for any aiding nation as well. In return for cooperation Demoliation will share all resources discovered with all who help in this great project. Please time to think this over before making an immediate response.



Thank You

We cannot ascent to your ingressing into the unoccupied zones for any purposes whatsoever except that of own internal security, which is not present in your request nor is it present in your necessity. We will be forced to defend the UZ if necessary.

The Emperor of Layarteb

Ok so RightWingConservatives and Klesh have been threatening me.
I can explain why it started but i don't want to cause a rift in the region so i'm not really at ease to do so, but if the threats do not stop i'm afraid i must, to substantiate my claims that this is an 'unprovoked' reaction.

I still want to know what all those telegrams about a "New Order" were about and why when I asked for elaboration nobody responded? You know what that means? You just lost all hopes of a possible ally and now I plan on destroying whatever plans have been made for this "New Order."

Well he made it clear that the 'New Order' was intent on overthrowing UD with our help. They mentioned it was for ideological reasons because UD is not a right winger, they claimed he was a liberal, when i reckon he is more Centre.
Anyway, i like UD and NY so we can't have these two babies running about trying to wreck the place, and then threatening those that stand in their way.
Only thing is it doesn't look like they use the forums at all so what are we to do?

To:Emporer of Layarteb
From:Emporer of Demoliation

Why do you take my desire to explore so threatening? To not want me to prceed is one matter, to threaten me is another. How do you figure you have the right to defend UNCLAIMED land. If another nation would wish to expand and has the area to do so then they shoud have the right to proceed. It is alittle alarming too that no other nation even took the time to respond to my request. I may be wrong on this issue, if so I hope we can reach a common ground.

Since the establishment of the map, the Empire of Layarteb has been the protector of the unoccupied zones. See the red text as such would be considered an aggressive act by us and will not be allowed as far as we can help it.

New York Regional Defense Treaty


Recognizing that the region of New York has grown by leaps and bounds in recent months, there comes the necessity for self-defense. With the recent activities of region crashers elsewhere throughout Nation-States it is only a matter of time before they target our region and destroy the peace and prosperity that engulfs our region. Self-defense of our region is essential to the protection of its sanctity.

I, the Emperor of The Empire of Layarteb, propose that the Empire of Layarteb and other prominent, active, and influential states within our region enact a treaty that assures the defense of the region against enemies, both foreign and domestic, and against region crashers.

The treaty will set up a council that will oversee the upholding of this treaty. Each member nation will be allotted a single vote inside the council. A simple majority will be required for action and, for any changes to the treaty, a majority of at least two thirds of the member nations will be required.

Region Crashers
With the possibility of a group of nations joining, electing their delegate, and seizing power of the region through whatever means, legal or illegal, we must bring the issue to the table. Several regions, Northern Ireland being the best example, have come under such attacks. These attacks more or less destroyed the sanctity of the region and marred it permanently. Region crashers SHALL NOT BE TOLERATED. Any instance of such an event will be met with immediate retaliation of whatever means necessary to ensure the safety, sovereignty, and sanctity of our region.

Aggressor Nations
If any nation of the region of New York is attacked without provocation by a foreign or domestic nation, regardless of status, members of this defense treaty shall be obligated to assist. If the nation being attacked, the victim, wishes to retaliate against their aggressor then, if desired, it can call upon the assistance of all nations member to this treaty. If the victim does not wish to retaliate they will not be obligated to and members of this treaty shall not pursue their own actions unless they are directly attacked or affected in negative ways by the aggressor nation. Also, the victim does not have to request the assistance of members of this treaty.

First and foremost, the defense of the New York region is against region crashers and enemies both abroad and at home.

Secondly, no member nation shall seek unjustified war with another nation inside the region of New York. A justification must be provided to the council. Any illegal actions will be met with sanctions and/or conflict as well as any other possible circumstance. The council shall decide on the course of action against any violator.

Thirdly, joining this treaty will require an embassy of each member nation in each country.

Fourthly, if the region of New York is threatened by region crashers all member nations will use whatever means necessary and whatever action determined by the council to combat them.

Fifthly, if any foreign nation threatens a domestic nation without a justifiable reason, to be investigated by the council, they will be met with an action set by the council.

Sixthly, if any domestic nation threatens another domestic nation without a justifiable reason, to be investigated by the council, they will be met with an action set by the council.

Seventhly, in order for any nation within the New York region to receive any protection under this treaty they must be a member of this pact.

Eighthly, the council may enact any of the following circumstances to an aggressor nation but is not limited to them: sanctions, war, economic repercussions, etc.

Ninthly, retaliatory strikes must be limited to the maximum force used. For example, a conventional attack must have a conventional retaliatory strike but an unconventional attack using any form of WMD may or may not incur WMD in the retaliation. This is at the discretion of the victim and any nations it wishes to involve.


The duties of any member nations will be to uphold all conditions within this treaty. They will be expected to act logically and reasonably. Members will be required to contribute funds to the council in order to maintain basic cost needs. Members will be required to submit 1% of their annual budget to be deposited annually in the general bank account of the pact, to be held at the First New York Regional Bank. Members, unless directly attacked themselves, shall not pursue any aggressor without the approval of the victim. All members of this treaty are required, when asked, to provide assistance against any aggressor nation or region crasher.

Let it be hereby known that all members who sign this arrangement will be held in the fullest sense to its duties and requirements. Such actions to the contrary will result in a dismissal from the arrangement via two-thirds vote of all signatory members.

The Empire of Layarteb has placed all branches of the Imperial Layartebian Military on REDCON 3. Our border defenses along the Dnalkrad-Demoliation border have been placed on a special alert and all units are now under free engagement orders if any military units from Demoliation attack border checkpoints or make any aggressive moves (these are pending command approval). If any military action is taken towards the Empire of Layarteb or any unathorized colonization in the unoccupied zones we will not hesitate to defend both our and the zones' honor.


REDCON 5 Normal peacetime readiness
REDCON 4 Normal, increased intelligence and strengthened security measures
REDCON 3 Increase in force readiness above normal readiness
REDCON 2 Further Increase in force readiness, but less than maximum readiness
REDCON 1 Maximum force readiness.

OK again I am confused. I am yet to make an aggressive act toward anybody yet you activate your military. I have not threatened or act threatening toward anybody yet you have taken upon yourself to speak for the region. Also in acordance to what you just left as a responce I am now seen as an enemy or crasher of the region, and correct me if I am wrong but in our agreement for the right of passage through my nation I myself was supossed to be signed onto the treaty (which I still do not see). I am just trying to understand why you have such angression towards my nation when I have not made a single aggressive act towards anybody. Finally I do not wish to make this a world affair, which by attacking me would do just that. Being an active UN member I do not wish to call upon other UN members for assistance in defending against attack. I am a peaceful nation and would like to stay that way.

Thank You
The Emperor of Demoliation

Meanwhile in Demoliation a man with a striking resemblance to Patton with cigar in mouth. "SIR we have to activate all military at once and defend ourself." "No, we do not need such worries tor each the streets, instead just run servalliance over the area and inform me if theres anymore activity." "BUT SIR". " Shut up Ashton and you listen and listen good you WILL follow those orders or Ill have you securing porta potties by the week is over!!" "Yes Sir." Ashton leaves the room and storms down the crowded hall. While in the emporers chamber the emporer mumbles to himself " god help us if Im wrong on this."

From King Phoenix III of The Kingdom of Fmjphoenix:

I hearby announce that The Kingdom of Fmjphoenix shall stay neutral in any possible explorations into any UZ. We do not wish to be caught up in any battles between possible nations. In the event of threat on any economic centers in Fmjphoenix, we shall respond with swift retalliation.

I am just trying to understand why you have such angression towards my nation when I have not made a single aggressive act towards anybody. Finally I do not wish to make this a world affair, which by attacking me would do just that. Being an active UN member I do not wish to call upon other UN members for assistance in defending against attack. I am a peaceful nation and would like to stay that way.

Thank You

Our increase in readiness is merely an action in case it were needed. We do not label you an enemy of the region nor do we see you as a region crasher. My measures are merely in pre-emption in case your forces should go into the UZ for the purpose of colonization.

We thank you for your bid to stay neutral for teh time being. We hope to keep this event isolated and hope that you are not brought into the conflict at all.

Hey, Layarteb, that twit Little Flowers is back- wonder how fast he'll run away this time!

I replied to your post on the Neo Tyr Vs. Klatch thread.

Can i sign up to the New York Regional Defense Treaty, last time i looked i had a sizeable chunk of land and i reckon i ought to defend it. Not to mention get involved in this current debate.

I don't see the reply. And you're signature is added.

Well i said Go ahead, they can work off of my 4th Fleet which is stationed off Sacrobees island, or you can let them work out of the Stadium in Neo Tyr which the 9th Foreign Legion Regiment (Airborne Peacekeepers) currently occupy.

Keep in mind though, Hogsweat has been absence and operations in Neo Tyr against this underground installation are currently the primary mission objective.

Ah okay. Sorry. I am awaiting the next move from Dem. actually before I post further.

Due to the over all lack of support and other objections the Empire of Demoliatio is sorry to say that it is going to back down on the issue of exploration and expansion. Though this this is important to Demolaition it is not important enough to go to war over. Maybe at a later date this issue can be passed successfully.




Thank You

In response to a statement by The Empire of Demoliation, the Empire of Layarteb is standing down along the borders and decreasing the REDCON alert to Level 4. Counterattack methods are being slowly moved away though the border check points will remain strong and secure.

Me and Urbh Yueh and a few others are involved in this RP if anyone from the region wants to do a little RP'ing.

Its hard to follow, whats it about etc??

Layarteb has anti-drug policies.

Callisdrun has pro-drug policies.

Callisdrun was once an exporter of drugs to Layarteb.

Urbh Yueh was once an exporter of drugs to Layarteb.

Callisdrun has two main families (Harthy's and Sorviks).

The Harthy's cooperate with the EOL.

The Sorviks and the Harthy's hate each other.

The Sorviks and the Urbh Yueh have joined to rid Callisdrun of the Harthy's and to make the EOL pay for their support of the Harthy's.

Rite...anyway i can help, funding, manufacturing, troops? I could create an Expeditionary Force and second it to EOL command. If you want give me a wish list and i'll see what i can do.

Post in the thread and we'll see what we can get in. Callisdrun, at the moment, has no idea what's going on with his story line so we're at a deadpoint at the moment.

Project LOrion

A resolution to slash worldwide military spending.


Category: Global Disarmament


Strength: Significant


Proposed by: P0rnstars

Description: All UN member nations of sufficient economic strength would pay a small fee* which would go towards creating a viable project orion type spacecraft in order to explore the solar system and beyond. This craft would use nuclear detonations to propel it's self (after being launched and propelled a safe distance away from the earth by conventional means) thus allowing it a vast speed and endurance increase over current spacecraft. Virtually no R&D would be required because this craft operates on existing technology and as such the costs would be minimal when compared to other methods of achieving the same performance. It would also make the world a safer place by using old nuclear devices to send man to the stars rather than to kill each other.
* This preferred payment media for this fee would be nuclear devices to propel the craft though any type of payment that a member nation chooses to make would be acceptable.

Approvals: 7 (P0rnstars, JS Nijmegen, Bloodsbane, WZ Forums, Extreme Darwinists, Niccolandia, Yangzhou)

Status: Lacking Support (requires 134 more approvals)

Wow what a horrible resolution. Regardless, P0rnstars, do ye want on the map?

Staten Island isn't part of NY. NY doesn't want it. It's part of Jersey.
