Dr Who and Gender recognition
http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2017/07/17/doctor-who-we-regret-to-inform-you-that-you-are-still-legally-a-man/
I know this is mostly meant to be fun (and a serious look at gender recognition laws in the uk) but i make me question one thing.

Is the spousal veto a necessary thing? From a purely contractual perspective. Can't you go 'well if your spouse isn't happy with your new gender, then they will have to apply for divorce.' ??? Thoughts?

Exxon fined for violating Russia sanctions
http://www.reuters.com/article/us-exxon-mobil-usa-ukraine-idUSKBN1A51UH

The Department of the Treasury just fined Exxon $2 million (that's right, million with an "M") for violating sanctions related to Russia's involvement in Ukraine. Why should Russia care about lifting sanctions if toothless enforcement is the alternative?

[STRATEGY] Ancient Med Variant
Hello everyone. I love the idea of the 5 player variant. But searching online I am unable to find strategy guides for EACH individual nation. It also seems Carthage has a good advantage over the others. Also Rome is just as bad as Italy in classic. Anyone have input?

Actually I have played Med a fair bit and don't find any have much of an advatange. If memory serves, all powers have the capacity to get three builds pretty much uncontested so, a lot boils down to how you handle year two. Rome has three fronts to play in (Balkans, iberia, western Med). Carthage also, with simmering tensions with Egypt possible. Usually the game becomes a duel between Rome and Carthage on the one hand and a dogfight between Egypt oersia and Greece on the other. Oddly I find Greece the hardest to play. One can make progress against Persia but often at the expense of getting wrecked by Rome.

It's the agreeing of splitting neutrals that makes it interesting - no country wants to have none of the contested neutrals, but to prevent a war...

It's a bit more balanced since you mostly have only 2 opponents at the start and each country has a great chance to double in size. It still comes down to alliances so you can protect a flank while going after the other direction to grow. Any country can solo, but Rome and Carthage have the most games played where they've won.

Yes its all about the seconfd year and creating either a side by side alliance or sandwiching someone with an allie.

3 build first turn is an essential..

Do Republicans think that Russia is good or bad?
There seems to be debate on the right about whether Russia is to be trusted or not. (The left is uniformly suspicious of Russia). I'm seeing Republican lawmakers being skeptical about Russia, but rightwing media seems fine with them.

End Russia Sanctions Now?
Tillerson has already said wrt the election meddling that it is time to move forward. Why not go all out and just get rid of sanctions altogether? At the least, couldn't Trump just turn a blind eye to violations of the sanctions (Magnitsky Act) and return the 2 spy compounds? Who's gonna stop him?
