Entertainment: Swoop Racing Revitalized
Since
the days of the Old Republic swoop racing has been a dull, regimented affair.
The swoops run the tracks one at a time and are required only to shift gears at
the appropriate time, hit accelerator pads, and dodge obstacles and then
compare times. The sport became boring to watch as people watched stopwatches
more then people.
No longer. The major tracks have decided to take a lesson from pod racing and are running longer, more dangerous tracks that require you to outfly others on the track to win. Said one spokesman: "The days where a nobody with a fast swoop who's managed to learn how to shift and dodge incredibly dull obstacles can become a sector champion are over. Now the race is one of real skill."

Society: Opening of New Luxury Repulsortrain
The
galactic celebrity Alya Aldrete of Alderaan recently completed her new luxury
repulsortrain service connecting the major cities of Alderaan. Filled with all
of the latest in conveniences and luxury accomodations the grand opening is
considered likely to be the event of the year. While she has banned media
involvement with the actual maiden voyage we have learned that dignitaries and
celebrities have been invited to the grand opening party.
Many are clamoring for tickets and there are speculations about undercover reporters sneaking aboard or even assassins trying to take someone out tied to the recently suppressed insurrection. When asked about this Lady Aldrete laughed, "With the security screenings we have in place, no cameras are getting smuggled in. With the exception of the bodyguards of Imperial dignitaries there will be no weapons allowed either. Even if someone did get a camera aboard my engineers tell me the ionic rails we use will block out all communications. No one is going to spoil the privacy of this party and it is going to be the best party I've ever thrown." She then blew a kiss to the camera and left the scene.

Headline News: Speeder Rental Costs on the Increase
Due
to increased vandalism, damage, and irresponsible use of rented speeders costs
are on the rise with more and more businesses wanting more money before the
speeder is released.
Said one industry specialist: "People are treating these vehicles as if they belonged to them and damage is accepted. Some agencies have put in vocal warning systems that inform the driver when what they are doing is dangerous but this has done little to curb the problem. Whether they're eaten by Krayt dragons, shot up by pirates, crashed into buildings after being loaded with bombs, or whatever the problem is getting out of hand.
The owner of Humboldt Rentals said: "A recent example emphasizes the problem. I rented to a group of visitors recently arrived on Coruscant. I asked a small fee and expected them to pay the rest on their return. I thought nothing of it until it was a few days late in being returned. We tried to track it down only to find the locator beacon was disabled. Then we found out that some lunatic parked it in Imeici Spire, that COMPNOR building terrorists took down. WHY DID THEY PARK IT THERE?"

Headline News: Coruscant Bans Dangerous Animals from Planet
The
Empire has recently banned the use of all slave Wookie labor on planet except
for military use. Recently a few rogue wookies whose owners were lax in
controlling them have caused large-scale devastation.
One bystander during a battle with Coruscant rapid response forces reported that a Wookie 'with a huge axe' chopped an assault airspeeder to pieces. These and other incidents have led to this ban. The creatures are just too animalistic and dangerous to be allowed on planet.
The Empire has encouraged all Wookie owners to leave their slaves at home while visiting or place them in an orbiting kennel being set up by the Empire for storage. Check local data-listings for pricing. Reservations are recommended.

Headline News: Zel Sonn Station Destroyed, Faulty Reactors Blamed
Zel
Sonn station was recently destroyed, it's orbital thrusters knocked out due to
faults in the system. MAHIG is demanding a full investigation and is
petitioning that in future all stations constructed should be required to have
a thermal exhaust port leading directly to the main reactor to prevent future
reactor malfunctions.
A few of the survivors have blamed the Balanced Equipped Animal Response teams for the problem, citing their heavy use of E-Webs, missiles, and mini-proton torpedoes within the station itself. MAHIG denies these claims and cites the rancor sightings on-board the station as proof that such weapons were barely adequate. They argue that if the BEAR patrol had access to thermal detonators and internal turbo-laser emplacements they could have saved the station.
MAHIG has made great steps towards incorporation into COMPNOR. They are considering their safety requests and have expressed support for their reactor ventilation suggestions.
