Electoral regions of Western Australia

In Western Australian politics, an **electoral region** was a region of the Western Australian Legislative Council, the upper house of the Western Australian Parliament. The system was created in 1989. They will be abolished at the 2025 state election, after reforms by the Labor government of Mark McGowan and Roger Cook. Instead of the Legislative Council being elected from different regions like in Victoria, they will be elected from the state as a whole like in New South Wales and South Australia.

## List

At the 2021 state election, there were six electoral regions:

The Dandy

***The Dandy*** was a Scottish children's comic magazine published by the Dundee based publisher DC Thomson. The first issue was printed in December 1937, making it the world's third-longest running comic, after _Il Giornalino_ (cover dated 1 October 1924) and _Detective Comics_ (cover dated March 1937). From August 2007 until October 2010, it was rebranded as _Dandy Xtreme_.

One of the best selling comics in the UK, along with _The Beano_, _The Dandy_ reached sales of two million a week in the 1950s. The final printed edition was issued on 4 December 2012, the comic's 75th anniversary, after sales slumped to 8,000 a week. On the same day, _The Dandy_ relaunched as an online comic, The Digital Dandy, appearing on the Dandy website and in the Dandy App. The digital relaunch was not successful and the comic ended just six months later. The Dandy title continues as a yearly Summer Special and the unbroken run of Dandy Annuals, up to and including the 2023 annual.

P5 (comics)

***P5*** (also known as ***Class Act***) was a short-lived comic strip in the UK comic The Dandy, Which had run between 1998 and 2002. It was drawn by Dennis the Menace artist Jimmy Hansen. It first appeared in issue #2965 (dated September 19, 1998).

## Overview

The series focussed on a class of prepubescent children in a school – Class P5, similar to The Bash Street Kids of The Beano. Each strip would sometimes focus on an individual in the group, and how they deal with situations that came up in school.

As the series went on, the character of Kim was joined to Class P5 from issue #3034 dated January 15, 2000, and the character of Dotty was moved from preschool class into P5. The strips also moved away from individual stories and focussed more on the group as a whole.

In Issue #3000, the kids had grown up to become adults with a school reunion theme, with Miss Truncheon now working in a job centre, until the last frame of the story when she immediately resigned, saying she wanted to stay away from "that lot", who had all since taken jobs at the same job centre. They appeared in a one-off in July 2002.

P5 returned as a reprint on 4 November 2006 under the new title of **Class Act**. The reprints are mainly from 1998 and 1999 for DC Thomson's policy of comic strips being at least 7 years old before they are reprinted. These reprints ended when The Dandy relaunched in August 2007.

## Characters

- **Den** – The class leader, who sometimes appreciates lessons so that he can get away from his sister, Dotty.
- **Dotty** – Den's annoying little sister, who later attends P5 after passing a set test with flying colours, much to Den's annoyance.
- **Jackie** – A vain, self-centred blonde often seen with ponytails and high-heel shoes.
- **Kim** – A Chinese student, who introduced to Class P5 from issue #3034, dated January 15, 2000.
- **Liam & Noel** - Two rough, violent twin brothers who are almost always fighting with each other. Named after Noel and Liam Gallagher, who founded the band Oasis.
- **PC** – a nerdy inventor who uses a robotic backpack to help him with his lessons.
- **Miss Truncheon** – Their long-suffering teacher who seems to have little power over P5, allowing them to stage their own plans and ideas without much opposition.

Rohanixalus nauli

The **Nauli bubble-nest frog** (_Rohanixalus nauli_) is a frog.  Scientists have seen it in exactly one place: Teluk Nauli in Indonesia.

## Home

This frog lives in forests that have never been cut down and forests that are growing back. It is good at living in places that have been changed.  People have seen this frog between 900 and 1000 meters above sea level.

This frog lives on Mount Sinabung.

## Young

Scientists do not know where this frog lays its eggs.

## Danger

Scientists say this frog is in big danger of dying out. Mt. Sinabung is a volcano. When it erupts, it puts out ashes and melted rock that can kill many frogs and other living things. The eruptions also make rocks fall. Mt. Sinabung erupted in 2010 and never stopped all the way.  There was a big eruption in 2017.  Scientists also see that people build farms for palm oil, small farms, and places for animals to eat grass in the forests where the frog lives. This could hurt the frog too.

Věra Kohnová

**Věra Kohnová** (1929–1942) was a Jewish girl from Czechoslovakia. She wrote a diary about her feelings and about events during the Nazi occupation. Her diary was published in 2006 and in 2023.

Kohnová was born in Plzeň in 1929, into the family of Otakar Kohn, an accountant in the Teller company. At the age of twelve she began keeping a diary. She wrote in it for five months, during which time the situation of her family and other Jews in Plzeň gradually worsened. She didn't describe the fate of the Jews at the time but wrote mainly about her personal feelings. The last entry in her diary is, "We are here just tomorrow and after tomorrow, who knows what will be then. Bye-bye, my diary!".

On 22 January 1942, the family was put on transport "S" to Theresienstadt. The last record of Vêra Kohnová comes from 11 March, when she left Theresienstadt on a transport for another Nazi camp in Izbica—a transfer station to the extermination camps. She arrived about two (2) days later on 13 March. Although she and her family did not survive, her diary was hidden by Marie Kalivodová and Miroslav Matouš for 65 years.

In 2006, the diary was published as a book in Czech, English and German (Czech title: _Deník - Věra Kohnová_, English title: _The Diary of Vera Kohnova_, German title: _Das Tagebuch der Vera Kohnova_), ISBN 80-86057-40-2. In 2023, the diary was published again, completed with newly discovered facts (Czech title: Deník Věrky Kohnové", ).

2023 United States debt-ceiling crisis

On January 19, 2023, the United States hit its debt ceiling. This started a crisis, as part of a debate within Congress about how the government should spend money and how it should deal with the national debt. Because of this, Janet Yellen, the Secretary of the Treasury, started using "extraordinary measures" until the crisis was over. On May 1, 2023, Yellen gave a warning that these measures could stop working by June 1, 2023. This date was later changed to June 5.

The debt ceiling had been increased a few times until December 2021, each time without any requirements. This was after a debt-ceiling crisis in 2013. When the 2023 crisis started, members of the Republican Party thought that the debt ceiling should only be increased with a requirement that the government only spends as much money as it did in 2022. Members of the Democratic Party wanted to pass a "clean bill" to increase the debt ceiling without any requirements, which had happened 3 times while Donald Trump was President.

If the government had run out of money, the United States Treasury would have had to either default on its debt or decrease payment of money owed to companies and people that had been mandated but not given enough money by Congress. Many people thought that either situation would make the economy crash. If the government had not been able to give new debt, it would have had to decrease the amount of money it could have spent by an amount equal to about 5% of the size of the American economy. , a scholar who studies the United States constitution, said that defaulting would not be allowed because of the 14th Amendment and the government would have to pay its debt back even after hitting the debt ceiling. President Joe Biden said that he was thinking about using the 14th amendment because he thought he had the authority to, but did not know whether it could be used in time to stop the default, since it might be appealed.

On May 27, Biden and Kevin McCarthy, the Speaker of the House at the time, made a deal to increase the debt ceiling but limit government spending. The deal became a bill, the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, which passed the House on May 31 and the Senate on June 1. Biden signed it into law on June 3, ending the crisis.

## Agreement

The **Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023** is an act of the 118th United States Congress that stopped the debt ceiling until January 2025. It ended the crisis. This law was supported by leaders of both the Republican Party and the Democratic Party.

Patrick McHenry introduced it on May 29, 2023 based on an agreement between Biden and McCarthy. The House approved it on May 31, and the Senate on June 1. Biden signed it into law on June 3.
