Training Office Report #18

Admiral Keldorn Cochrane Reporting – 11th August 2003

http://www.emperorshammer.ca/

 

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls,

 

Welcome to another addition of a Training Office Report. I have been online only sparingly over the past few weeks, thanks firstly to real-life necessity and secondly to my e-mail doing offline. The second has now been remedied; my usual address – gmf@kweeky.net - is back online and functioning fine. If, however, it ever does go offline again please feel free to contact me on my personal address (nx.cochrane@btopenworld.com).

 

The first of the IRC colloquia has been delayed for several weeks to enable me to get back into the swing of things and for it to be properly publicised throughout the Emperor’s Hammer. We may even be visited by a distinguished (re; academic, none of these pansy celebrities ;P) guest to give a short online presentation. Details for the reschedule will be published shortly.

 

Fleet Admiral Darkov resigned from his EH posts recently. This saddens me. Applications for the Active Service Page (ASP) Professorship are once again open (details below).

 

I would like to welcome three individuals to the folds of the Training Office. First and foremost, Captain Amadeo of the ISD Challenge has been selected as the next Training Office Assistant (TOA)! The selection process was very difficult, given the large number of incredibly skilled and experienced members who applies, but CPT Amadeo just had the edge. Colonel Locke Setzer joins the Office as Eggdrop (BOT) Professor and Captain Chris McCollum as Graphics (GFX) Professor. Congratulations and welcome to all!

 

The small Training Officer competition – Apostasy – has now been launched. It is not a full-scale competition of old, but a cooperative series of events to run alongside individual SubGroup competitions. Nevertheless, there are Platinum Ribbons on offer – and a ‘special prize’ will also be available to one lucky contestant! Full details can be found on the Academic NeXus at: http://www.emperorshammer.ca/comps_apostasy.html

 

TIE Corps

 

Time for another reminder for those lovable rogues in the TIE Corps; merit medals cannot be awarded for competitions unless in *very* special circumstances – and in such circumstances one should first get the approval of the Operations Officer before submitting a competition to the database.

 

Dark Brotherhood

 

In specific regards to the Dark Brotherhood; the processing of new Applicants was hit again by the sudden disappearance of my e-mail (this has now been remedied). But the long-standing database error blocking many Applicants from progressing in their studies has still not been remedied, I only hope the Seneschal is not encountering too much hardship in this historical ‘battle’ of code. It should be noted that myself and the Master-At-Arms are not really in a position to remedy this ourselves, but there is a manual system in place (details briefly posted on the Brotherhood domain earlier today). Inquiries may – of-course – be sent to me at anytime (to@emperorshammer.org). I shall be shortly advertising for another Magistrate to the Headmaster to assist me in the day-to-day management of the Shadow Academy, so I advise any interested parties to start sending me flowers (of the masculine sort) or large consignments of cash in unmarked bills.

 

If any Applicants do not receive any form of communication from me within 24 hours of this day please either contact me with your question/submission/problem or resubmit your Apprentice entry. My most humble apologies for this inconvenience.

 

Imperial Senate

 

Former Vice Minster Xura Verr has been reinstated to the position of Vice Minister of Education and has already progressed well on the gradual coding of the Imperial University into efficient and friendly PHP. He has kept be informed to an excellent degree, as such I commend him on his work. At this rate, the fully-automated IU shall be ready for the Senate’s grand re-launch.

 

Vacancies

 

Active Server Page (ASP) Professor Open for Applications

 

The requirements are:
