2014 Ācai AF6: Review
FordTaurus-3 [Public domain], by IFCAR (Own work), from Wikimedia Commons
Ācai are pretty new to the Austriaco-Italian market; the AF6 is their Mercedes-Benz C-Class contender. Designed by a team of Sri Lankan Astholmians, the brand may well be unknown to the rest of the world, but they intend to become a world leader by 2018.
Ācai means desire in Tamil, the Sri Lankans' native language, and the car capitalizes on this in their advertising presence.
It certainly looks fresh, with an interesting mix of European, Asian and Maredoratican design themes, it being less Germanic than rivals, but not Asian enough to be a Lexus clone.
Styling is very much Ford Taurus-inspired, but it is not a rebadged blue oval; if anything, it looks a bit different to its American inspiration, with lines that are more Europeanized and very definitely not Ford.
The AF6 looks very stylish, and it's longer than the new C-Class (4,686mm long and 1,810mm wide); at 5,019mm long and 1,854mm wide it's certainly spacious, with only the BMW 3-Series (at 4,624mm long and 1,811mm wide) and Audi A4 (4,717mm long and 1,826mm wide).
Engine choices are, for now, a 3.2-litre/254bhp V6 petrol or a 2.2-litre/158bhp 4-cylinder turbodiesel, badged as 2.2 TDCi, both engines of Ācai's own design. We could only test the 2.2-litre/158bhp TDCi, which is pretty good for a diesel engine. With 157PS, it's not the largest in the class, but it's certainly powerful, and economy claimed to be about 62mpg; not quite up to the benchmarks of this class like Mercedes-Benz or VLT, but good for a 2.2 engine. Our car came with a 5-speed manual gearbox, which was good, did everything well, but didn't excel as much as some rivals.
Ride quality is excellent; it's comfortable and solid, supping up the autostrada/autobahn quite nicely. It's quite good to drive, and although there's some body-roll, the ride is still comfortable nonetheless.
In terms of safety kit, seven airbags are offered as standard, radar-guided cruise control and lane-keeping assistance, for those who should get into the wrong lane by mistake.

ORBITAL WEAPON REVEALED, DOES NOT WORK SAYS MINISTRYIII
A concept of what the UVF-1 Dart looks like.
iiiiiiii
September 10, 2014 at 01:00 PM (Wednesday). The Ministry of Defense has officially released documents and news to the public about a supposed orbital weapons platform of the republic (as required by the transparency policy). Defense Minister Dan Dhesjoy revealed details about this orbital weapons platform in a press interview just this morning. According to the defense minister, Tolmakia has no such thing in its records and thus came to the conclusion that the weapon could have been mistaken as belonging to the republic. But the documents do tell that the orbiter was of Tolmakian origin and thus could have only been developed without the government's knowledge. This information was only found out just this month from Tolmakian Agency of Aeronautics and Space (TAAS) and Tolmakian Agency of Intelligence and Learning (TAIL) disclosed documents after an internal TAIL issue was resolved.
"It is with great surprise that we have discovered that we had a so-called orbital weapons platform up in the sky. To think we could even have such a thing, and it would have been a pride of the republic had it not been for its illegitimate creation and deployment and subsequent failure in operating. A weapon of such stature could only be developed behind the government's back, and secretly dispatched without its knowledge. How this could be done, we still don't know". The orbiter (dubbed UVF-Dart by documents) was only uncovered on September 2, Tuesday.
On September 7 on a Saturday, the army with the TAAS was able to obtain its control. With the knowledge of the international community, The TAAS tested it many times when it was over the Pacific Ocean. According to the TAAS chief operator, Mr. Lawrence Baker "It has been tried and tested for days and did not fire a single projectile. We have already come to the conclusion that it does not work at all. In other words it's a dud, a piece of junk". After this conclusion, the TAAS had been granted full control. Because of the self-defense policy of the republic, the satellite will be immediately de-orbited and will be expected to reenter the Earth's atmosphere in December 2014. For the meantime, the Republican Investigation Department (RED) shall be investigating the matter and looking for more clues.
According to reports found, the UVF-1 was launched in 1987 by an anonymous contractor. The TAAS could have designed it but could not have launched the satellite without alerting the government or neighboring communities. It was also designed to carry 6 tungsten rods, each the size of a telephone pole. The reason for its creation and deployment remains unknown and the investigating detachment hopes to solve the case and resolve the issue by next year at its latest.

INTERNET SERVER TICKS OFF SUBSCRIBERSIII
TomSkape is one of Tolmakia's popular internet servers.
iiiiiiii
September 13, 2014 at 03:00 AM (Saturday). The popular Tolmakian internet provider, TomSkape underwent maintenance in order to improve its service that started in September 8, Sunday. As a result the internet it provided was cut off for a week but "will be faster, better and more improved", the representative of TomSkape, Mr. Boggis Walter promised. But then the news was not well received by many, especially by many of its subscribers.
Many subscribers criticized TomSkape for conducting this maintenance unannounced or at least largely unheard. According to an internet blogger, Maya Robins "TomSkape is okay, but then its also random at times". Her comment was posted via internet cafe. Within hours, many comments of other TomSkape subscribers posted their complaints. According to the TomSkape statistics of September 7, almost 500,000 Tolmakians lost their access to the internet. Many have even changed their internet service providers.
In response to these complaints. TomSkape representative Mr. Boggis gave an announcement on the TomSkape Twitter. Quoting his tweet, "The maintenance will take at least a week. For those who can't wait, you can just use a temporary internet source. Once our network is done, we will announce it and our internet will be faster and better." Within minutes, the tweet garnered more than 75 comments, favorites and retweets.
TomSkape is one of the top-ten internet server providers of the Republic of Tolmakia. It was created in 2001 and in 2005 topped 3rd place in the most popular internet service providers of the country. TomSkape has been regarded as a trustworthy source of internet while attracting a fair share of criticism. A notable issue was in 2007 when TomSkape was sued for its critical customer service. Since then, it has improved its service and had a change in management. As of 2013, It serves around a million Tolmakians nationwide.

TOLMAKIAN TROOPS ABROAD ON ALERTIII
Tolmakian Army tanks in Pejite.
iiiiiiii
September 25, 2014 at 12:00 PM (Thursday). The Republican State of Tolmakia is up in ears and arms (both figuratively and literally) after news from The Kingdom of Free Pejite was received. Apparently, the news was that the Pejitean rebel and resistance groups leftover from the Second Pejite War suspected to be spread around the Middle-East have allied themselves with other hostile groups, one including the major islamic group operating in Syria and near Pejite. The information was also passed on by Tolmakian intelligence units in the nation to the Kingdom's leaders.
"These rebel groups are posing a major threat once again", states Minister Teshi Hershei in a press interview by the Tolmakian Broadcasting Center. "Just in the past months, their activities died down leaving the Kingdom of Pejite, our newest major ally in peace and prosperity. However the rebel groups allying themselves with these deadly and extremely hostile groups now could change all that. Their alliances threaten to disturb the Kingdom's current state. If anything happens to Pejite, our nation will be compelled once again to go on the offensive to fulfill our agreements with our ally." He also added that the rebel attacks from the western province of Pejite have since doubled this month. This week in September 20, 1 Tolmakian soldier was killed in action by a rebel sniper near the outskirts of Promiya village. Though the Tolmakian Military Forces have not seen any other action aside from this their allies, Pejitean Military Forces have engaged many rebel groups near the Iraq-Pejitean border.
The Prime Minister previously also expressed his concern for the growing crisis in the Middle-East. He even went as far as considering joining the US-led coalition as "non-offensive" units such as logistics. One thing he has stated with certainty was that should the coalition forces need to, they may use the PLOT (Promiya Land of Tolmakia), a territory that also serves as the republic's major overseas military garrison. Additionally, the Tolmakian Military Forces (with permission from the military command and agreement from the Pejitean head of state, King Asabel IV) are to extend their stay on Pejitean soil.
After the Second Pejite War, the republic has distanced itself from the crises ongoing in the region. But it is bound by a policy to defend the Kingdom of Free Pejite. The Kingdom in turn has seen good times so far but with its borders touching Iraq and its location relatively close to Syria, the kingdom faces a risk of rebels and other radical groups from entering its borders and destabilizing its stable yet still recovering state.
