Cerberus reports successful containment of the "smallpox" virus that has ravaged the internet for the last few weeks.  They are currently supplying patches [[here]] to rid your system of the virus.  "Another example of the rapid response of the Cerberus team.  We worked around the clock and nailed this thing to the wall before it could do any real damage."  The Cerberus Sysop Root is quoted as saying.
 
  
Leif Hrulfgarrson, after several administrative hurdles, has secured sufficient funding for a "preliminary" survey of a site on Andromache 3.  Statements taken from him amount to a suggestion that even this survey will bring in funding and allow him to expand the site rapidly.  The expedition is expected to be underway within 2-3 months.
 
  
Several long distance scanning satellites have disappeared in the outer 6-4-82 sector, compounding the travel warnings in this area.  It is believed that the disappearance of these satellites is connected to the anomalous activity in the orion nebula.
 
  
King Volonus Julius Augustus Caesar has issued a proclamation expelling all Aeneans other than official ambassadors from Priam.  Q. Cicero, his press secretary, is quoted as saying "given the current military buildup and escalation pursued as policies by the Aeneans, King Volonus at this time feels it prudent to express his displeasure in the strongest terms possible.  This action in no way prevents further diplomacy between our nations, as demonstrated by our willingness to permit ambassadors to remain, yet it is the royal wish that those with potential influence be denied the comfort of Lycurgan patronage so that they might be motivated to enact change."

In the midst of religious rioting on Calchas, most major spaceports and industrial zones have been seized by christian fundamentalists, who have declared the planet their domain: their onslaught has been vastly more successful than anticipated, leading to fears that such uprisings will spread. They state that they intend to ally themselves with von Goettingen and the Aeneans. Casualty reports are difficult to gather because of the chaos on the planet. It is clear that small enclaves of corporate coalition resistance remain, but they are isolated and, by now, heavily fortified.

The Imperator Quintus Fabius Maximus, Imperator of the Castor system, has issued a statement that all available military and mercenary personnel should make their way to Glaucus: he states that the corporate coalition intends to reimburse fully for time alloted. It is also clear that all spaceports on glaucus are being fortified.

[anyone with military/streetwise contacts will know that several higher risk, higher pay opportunities are available for ships with high maneuverability and/or stealth capabilities]

Announcing the formation of the Pan-Pollux Militia! anyone age 16 or older is eligible to enlist: provided is your training, your room and board, and your equipment. All those enlisting will be rewarded with property and material goods in Aenean provinces, following their liberation from the Aenean dictatorship. See your local recruiter or click here
