Greetings Everyone! Time for your weekly dose of RO and SW News.


First off, CA:RO Shay'la has been working on an RO Report site. Basicly this will cut down on all the worthy news items usually found in the weekly RO Reports. Meaning we will feature around three to four news items per report, and the rest will be on the website. But I'll let her CA:RO Report explain that. Ronin, Sir, hope you like the shortened reports! ;)


Odd thing occured to me today.. Saturday, Oct 25th, the band Nickleback will be preforming in my home town of Cape Girardeau, MO. I have just contacted the rock station in town and I am going to see if I can get in with them to do a "Meet and Greet" with all of the bands. Granted there is a very big chance I wont be able to do it, But I am sure as hell going to try. Downside is I cant go to the concert due to having to cover someone's shift tomorrow night (Read: rather miffed at that). There has to be SOMEONE in those three groups ( Nickleback, Three Days Grace, Trapt) that likes Star Wars to a certain degree. I'm going to try to swing a Honorary Member out of this, if nothing else ( if I'm able to go that is) ill get an interview or a partial one with some of the best groups in Rock... it'll be AAaallll gooood! Wish me luck!


Okay, that's it for me. Time for Shay'la to do her thang..

CA:RO Report


This week, I do not have much to say, well no, wait.



I am working hard on the new kind of report, which was expected for this week. It should be up later this week. On another hand, I would like to thank the RO for letting me work freely on this project, which goal was to reduce the size of the RO report considerably without haltering its quality. I would also like to say that I spent the week working on this report project. Well, sorry, I say week, but I really lost the notion of time. It will be simple and easy to navigate, just like a web page.



The websites, both RO and Convention Database, are in progress. With the current project if online report, I had to neglect the RO web pages. Unfortunately, I started school again so my time will return to limited. It will be a little slower to improvement this week for I have RL matters to attend. I still need a new design for them, which I am constantly thinking about. The real update for this week is that I started paying more attention to the php aspect of them. I will be revamping the codes when I figure it out again, I am half way done through my book. Shame on me, I had forgotten about it more than I thought, hehe.



The report #31 should be up by tomorrow, with complete news for the past week. Be ready for it, an email will be sent out when it is accessible.



This is all from me this week.
