The Frank Updated

After shocking announcements of new stadiums for the Falcons and the Braves, Dr. Chris Richie has let it be known that the Trojans will be moving following the 2017 season to unincorporated Shallowford Road. Richie has said that Coach Jeptha Irwin approached him two years ago about the prospect of upgrading from Frank Fillman Stadium and threats to relocate the football team to Pope if the their demands were not met. Critics of the move have pointed out the lack of public transportation to and from the proposed plot. Also on the minds of those affected is how the stadium will be paid for. Richie was quoted as saying that a small price increase on lunches,  parking passes, snacks, and school supplies. There is also word of a toll hallway being placed in the 400 hall. Of course this move has brought with it a great debate between two groups in the Lassiter Metro Area. Those inside the Sandy Plains Perimeter feel as though they have been betrayed by the team and the school for their move OTP. 

Ukrainian Revolution

Over the past six months, the world has had its eyes transfixed on the Ukraine and its citizens fighting to have their voices heard. Within the last week, the embattled prime minister has fled the protests in the capital Kiev. The leader of the opposition has been released from prison that she had been held in, many say as a political prisoner, for the last few years. The protests started when a bill to bolster ties with the West and get away from the Russian sphere of influence was vetoed by the prime minister. Young people and more liberal people were outraged at having their chance to increase their future economic opportunity taken away from them. The bill was vetoed when President Vladimir Putin offered to buy up 15 billion in ukrainian debt, a last ditch effort to keep the former soviet block country in hand. The United States has so far stayed out of the situation, and hopes that it does not come to that point. Their biggest worry is for the protests to get out of hand and Russia to send troops in to qualm them.
