Hey there, Cestus! Hope everyone's having a good start to the new year. Anyway, here's the latest.

With the GJW coming up in a couple weeks, it's good to see everyone still being active and preparing. Just today I got tons of notifications that people were earning medals and Clusters of Fire. Nicely done. There's still a competition you guys can do, called "Who Fell First?" Just write a story having to do with the words "romance," "crystal," "carpenter," and "midichlorian," as well as the comp title, "Who fell first?" Submissions are due to Kazarelth by January 10th.

Let's also welcome and congratulate Denzel Kor for his first promotion. That's really the only newish thing I can state since Vai is doing a great job with updates about the House.

Finally, to wrap up this brief report, here's a song I find very effective to the mood of the next GJW. Of course, as I have no media skills, I can't really make a SW-themed video to coordinate with it. If any of you guys have any video skills, maybe we can make a cool video to pump ourselves up. Here's the link to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWxBrI0g1kE

Have a great day, all.
