CMDR/LC DarkCSalute
Here we go with another weekly report…one of those you are so anxious to read:P
You’ll have some news from Lucas Arts and also some new faces around here:P
So let’s see….
COMMANDER’S OFFICE
Last week CPT Trent steped down from Vortex CMDR position. Well, “steped down” is a way of speaking, because Vortex vas completely full and he had no were to step down to. So he was transferred to Odin quadron. But either he couldn’t take Joey’s dictatorship or he missed me,either ways he asked to be tranfered to Tartarus this week.
I hope you’ll enjoy your staying here and maybe you’ll even help me activate this squadron a bit:)
The rest of the squadron was still quite silent, but some of them are on leave and some are sick:(
Squadron status
We’re now at 8 pilots and the status is as following :

And CPT Maiko Spince is taking a well deserved vacation.Well, if you can call vacation the time you spend learning for exams:P Good luck!

NEWS FROM LUCAS ARTS
By now Star Wars fans know that the Official Star Wars Fan Club and starwars.com Hyperspace have merged into one, offering the greatest Star Wars experience ever for subscribers. A year's subscription includes a unique membership kit, six issues of the new-and-improved Star Wars Insider, as well as all the exclusive online content that current subscribers have been enjoying since the launch of Hyperspace in June of 2003. (Click here for more details!)
"Hyperspace subscribers have had a great year of unprecedented inside access and the response has been great," says Director of Lucas Online, Paul Ens. "Now that Hyperspace is the online component of a larger Fan Club experience, we're looking forward to new opportunities to make that fan experience even better this year."
Episode III is what fans are most interested in, and the final Star Wars film will continue to be the focus for both Insider and starwars.com Hyperspace in 2004-2005. "Right now, we're planning on webcam coverage of the additional round of shooting in August, as well as bringing back the Set Diaries direct from London," says Ens.
In the meantime, subscribers can look forward to an inside look at a big Lucasfilm event planned for this summer. "Hyperspace really became ‘the-next-best-thing-to-being-there' during Sydney, and we want to continue that during the convention season," says Ens. "That's why we're working on letting subscribers in on some of the surprises that will be unveiled this summer at Lucasfilm's big Comic-Con presence. If you can't make it to San Diego, then tuning into starwars.com Hyperspace is the next best thing."
One of the new features for 2004 is a brand new Episode III photo series unlike any previously run on the site. "It's quite different as it's very interactive, and it will allow users to explore some of the Episode III production environments in a new way," says Ens.
"A key element to Star Wars' success has always been the collective experience, be it waiting in line, watching the movie in a packed theater, creating new adventures with action figures, gathering at a Star Wars Celebration or knowing you're reading the same Star Wars novel as thousands of other fans at the same time," says Ens.
"The internet has redefined what the concept of a community can be, and it only makes sense for the Official Fan Club to embrace and facilitate this important aspect of being a fan. This fall, look for new ways for fans to reach out to other fans, spotlight their fan groups, or share their creativity or opinions with their local and global communities.
"Naturally, look for Hyperspace to tie-in closely with this fall's Episode III teaser trailer and Star Wars Trilogy release on DVD," says Ens, "and making those landmark events even better for our members. Plenty of other surprises are also in store... stay tuned."

What am I doing wrong?
Starting this report (lol…like I said several reports ago:P) I open this new section where I would like to post your honest oppinions about the way I’m leading this squadron.
Well, i am not necessary expecting all oppinions to be this positive:P
The day i will feel you will realise how much i care for you…i will be a happy CMDR!
FICTION
None this week, but I am hopping Trent will soon write something:P
POETRY
ANOTHER GLASS OF WINE
By LC DarkC
Another day is gone
And I just watch the sunset,
I’m thinking about you and suddenly I feel alone..
I miss the sunshine in your eyes,
But something makes me fear you are upset.
What I would like to hear would be the truth and no more lies,
But you’re so far away from me and you can’t hear me,
So I just watch the moon that starts to shine
And all I want for now…is just another glass of wine.
LAST THOUGHTS
This is about all for now.
As I said it’s always worse before it get’s better so keep your chin up and help me make things better around here:P
I hope things will be more interesting with Trent here:P
Also do pray for the recovery of LCM Ardan. I need my FL back here!
And most important…keep in touch! At least those of you who decided to stick around here with me:P
Btw…it seems you absolutelly forgot we DO HAVE a message board….visit it more often! http://ehnet.org/mb/viewforum.php?f=91
I love you all !
Now I love you three times more than when I joined 3 years ago:P
“Never know what you’ve got till is gone…”
Respectfully submitted,
The one guilty for loving you,
CMDR/LC DarkC/Tartarus.
