Another fairly busy week, I glad to see you guys get so much accomplished; this house is definitely becoming a better place to be. Since today is my last day of vacation I have another short report for everyone.

Two promotions were received this week: RevengeX achieved the rank of Guardian as did Issard Jokaat. It looks like the program is working well so I encourage you guys to stick with it and we all look forward to your next advancement.

We have received a new member into the House with the arrival of APP Magiere. I hope you enjoy your time here and if you ever need any help feel free to ask.

Many medals were awarded for various activities: A crescent with emerald star has been given to Issard for winning second place in the "Dark Council Maybe" comp, while Jordan received a sapphire crescent for taking first in the same competition. Apparently, there was only two entries and two awards given out, sorry if I missed the third place winner.

Everyone who even remotely participated in the Krath Phyle Murder Mystery story has received a ruby crescent for our team receiving second place overall. Congratulations to you guys for bringing such great recognition upon our House and Clan.

Several courses were also completed this week: Rhaub passed the leadership exam with a solid 100%, nice job. Lance Syrden has passed the IRC Channel Operator course with an 87% while RevengeX has passed HTML Basics with a 70%. Nice job to everyone here, remember taking courses is just one of the ways to advance and be active so check them out sometime. I've heard they might even be testing new Krath courses so look out for those in the near future.

The final topics are just random things that I decided to include for your information. First, the Master/Student program is undergoing revisions and the one new requirement will be updated shortly. Second, ACO Varik Darkcloed has left the Tang'va family. Also, as our House now has a stable M/S program I thought it would be cool to show the rest of the DB what we're made of. The KHP is running a new competition for Master/Student pairs and it appears to be a joint paper. I think this sounds really cool and I encourage all pairs to try it if you have time. Finally, I believe we are working on our Clan Battle Plan for the Sith war as I'm writing this. Hopefully, that will be out soon because that is the last thing we need to submit and we've done very well in this war. Congratulations to everyone who has participated.

That's all from me, sorry if I didn't include everything as I don't mean to offend anyone. Have a great week and if you need to contact me feel free.
