Nirn

Nirn is the fictional planet on which The Elder Scrolls games are set. Its name means "Arena" in the Elven language. Nirn is not to be confused with Mundus (the "Mortal Plane"), and is located in Aurbis, between the Aetherius (the "Immortal Plane"), and Oblivion. Nirn is named "Mortal Plane" because the species which inhabit it die. The planet is orbited by the two moons Masser and Secunda, the Eight God planets and its sun, called Magnus. The continents of Nirn include Akavir, Aldmeris, Atmora, Pyandonea, Tamriel, and Yokuda.

Enabling legislation for the British national identity card was passed under the Identity Cards Act 2006. The multi-billion pound scheme has yet to enter procurement. The cards will have a lesser role than the database they are linked to, which is known as the National Identity Register (NIR). The Act specifies fifty categories of information that the NIR can hold on each citizen , including up to 10 fingerprints, digitised facial scan and iris scan, current and past UK and overseas places of residence of all residents of the UK throughout their lives and indices to other Government databases - which would allow them to be connected. The legislation also says that any further information can be added. The legislation further says that those renewing or applying for passports must be entered on to the NIR. It is expected that this will happen soon after the UK Passport Service, which has now been renamed the Identity and Passport Service (IPS), start interviewing passport applicants to verify their identity. Various degrees of concern about the scheme have been expressed by human rights lawyers, activists, security professionals and IT experts.
