OOC: Since Zurk is unavailable and will be for some time, and is acting speaker in his capacity as Admin, I will temporarily take over to start the next vote

"As per the Provisional Government Act, we shall now begin the process of choosing a Speaker. We will now have a 24-hour nomination period for the Speakership, followed by a 24 hour vote".

United Provinces of Atlantica wrote:"Mister Speaker, I move to recess the Senate until the 21st of February, Noon Pacific Standard Time."

"It is the opinion of the chair that this motion is dilatory, it is out of order."

I second this.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.
