It appears as though with summer coming to a close and people heading back to school that life is returning to our orginazation. Look forward in the coming weeks to a slew of new competitions aimed at driving general acticvity up to pre-GJW levels!

Also, I'd like to take a moment to recognize one our Clan's greatest members. His dossier number states that he's been a member of the Brotherhood for not much longer than I have, but in that time, he has shown considerable pride for his Clan and has represented us in numerous DB-wide compeitions, Vendetta or not. Tarax Eosphoros Taldrya Kor has served as a BTL, an Aedile, a Quaestor, the Acting Preator to the Master-At-Arms, the MAA's Magistrate, and a Magistrate to the Grand Master himself. His record is long and detailed, it tells the story of a man who doesn't give a crap, except to crap on the other Clans. As he steps down in the coming days from Quaestor of Dinaari I'd like to personally thank him for his service over the past three years to Clan Taldryan. Somehow, the TT will be less poignant without you.

-Jac has posted a link to Bioware's Industry Preview of the Old Republic MMO. I think it looks sharp and I cannot wait to ruin my College GPA playing. View that here.

-The Consolidation of the Shadow Academy has been completed and from the looks of it, the new structure will go to furthering the institutions lifespan. I recommend you younger guys head over to the SA and check out some of the newer courses!

-The Deputy Grand Master is seeking a News Update Flag for the main page of the DB site. You'll notice when you view the page a series of four flags that change as you mouse-over them. If you are a graphics person, check out this news post for the details!

-Halc has me busy with writing lots of pretty documents for your reading enjoyment. We're currently waiting for approval for one from some higher-ups and Halc is giving the other his magic touch with a red pen. Expect one or both soonish in some form or another. Hopefully.

-Our leadership shuffles are nearly complete. Dinaari will have a new look shortly and hopefully we can all move forward with this new line up.

-Upcoming Competition Blitz.
