POLITICS
Today, the New Order party stands still for a moment of silence to commemorate the untimely death of Efinn Orisme—long-time representative of the Coalition for Improvements, best known for his political views for the dissolution of the Senate—who was assassinated by rebel insurgents nearly two years ago on Corellia during an Imperial peace rally.
Several Imperial advisors have resigned from their posts at the suggestion of Grand Vizier Sate Pestage. The Grand Vizier explained that his motives were to streamline the Empire’s political agenda and that new ideas are needed as mentioned in earlier plans of restructuring the Outer Rim Territories policy.
MILITARY
Brought to you by our colleagues at Imperial Defence Daily: The Imperial Navy has struck a minor victory in the Expansion Region on the fringes of the Immalia sector, well over six hundred parsecs removed from our beloved Imperial Centre, with the
Obedience, an
Imperial II-class Star Destroyer. The engagement was against a pitiful lone Ithorian ship, crewed by rebel extremists; at time of writing, it is unclear what their exact intentions were, but given the strategic location, experts believe that they had been preparing a raid on the nearby Hydian Way. The involvement of the vessel of Ithorian origin—a species known for its pacifist nature—is still being investigated.
Our glorious Imperial Majesty will personally be christening three newly constructed Star Destroyers at the shipyards over Kuat tomorrow. The Imperial military can be proud to supplement its forces with the
Immolator,
Praetor, and
Disquietude. Rumour has it that these three vessels of our might will form the spearhead of a new regional fleet in the Mid Rim to counter the ever-growing threat of raider activity on supply convoys.
LAW
Imperial Customs intercepted yet another large quantity of illegal substances aboard various freighters due for the Corporate Sector, whose crews and their captains were taken into Imperial custody. Meanwhile, the Imperial Security Bureau confirmed the arrested to be affiliated with a local spice running group.
HEALTH
A health warning is being issued on all Mon Calamari immigrants to Imperial Centre. Physicians from the Imperial Department for Epidemic Prevention carefully monitored several subjects in the Alien Protection Zone, and believe them to be carrying a highly contagious strain of Tastiged Flu. Citizens are advised to remain vigilant and alert while in the vicinity of these beings. Multiple cases of rapidly spreading Ascomycetous Pneumoconiosis were also reported in the Outer Rim Territories.
FINANCE
The Century Concordance Bank filed with the Imperial Treasury for bankruptcy today. The bank recently suffered an economic blow when a majority of its shareholders effectively withdrew their assets last week. The executive board attempted a “second start” but to no avail. Century Concordance came to an abrupt end when information circulating the financial world indicating the bank was supposedly funnelling profits to the Rebel Alliance.
SCIENCE
A scientific study lead by Professor Nexill J. Vir to seek out the primary genetic differences between Humans and aliens provided interesting results. Professor Vir, who teaches xenobiology at the Imperial Institute of Higher Studies, supervised a team of Arkanian scholars to assist him in cracking the puzzle that has long baffled the scientific community. The study shows that among others, Twi’leks are, despite their appearance, drastically inferior to Humans on a cellular level. It is even believed that this makes them more susceptible to a wide array of infections. A full review is expected to be published next month.
ENTERTAINMENT
Renowned holonovelist Leann Fagana gave birth this morning to a healthy daughter, Aline. Fagana’s husband informed the galactic community via press release. Leann Fagana is best known for “Life at the Palace,” a series providing a unique look into how daily life might be at the Imperial Palace. Fusion Holodrama’s bid last week for the author's licence of the popular holonovels gives reason enough to conclude that more than one party is interested to put Fagana’s work to screen.
A newly-published report shows that Ter Kins, alleged son of the late BlasTech executive Ens Kins, was indeed the instigator of an incident at the recent corporate ceremonial ball. The High Galactic Society has threatened sanctions against Mr. Kins for his misbehaviour, effectively banning him from future events. As a result of his pale and otherwise shabby appearance, many guests at the ball had the impression that Mr. Kins had fallen ill, of course not excluding his partner’s obvious accountability.
SPORTS
In the Nuna-Ball League (NBL), a decisive game was meant to be played yesterday in Rori Stadium, but the supposed sabotaging of numerous droids led to a long delay, eventually causing the entire match to be postponed. In smashball, however, the Corellian Dreadnaughts scored a major victory, ensuring another step forward on their path to a place in the Sector Championships.
Rumours are circulating on Imperial Centre of a new underground podracing circuit to have been discovered blooming somewhere in the Outer Rim Territories. Imperial authorities have begun their investigations into this claim so as to halt participation in this outlawed and highly-dangerous sport, should the information be proven accurate.
ENVIRONMENT
For those of you on Imperial Centre, be advised of atmospheric smog from The Works covering nearby areas of the ecumenopolis for at least a 12-hour span. This due to a series of malfunctions in the air-filtration systems.
