Open Voting for the Beit Dawla has been extended to January 7th! Investigation called for, and armed escorts are being provided for voters.
Today shocking revelations from the Cortex News Service have left the Beit Dawla Elections in the midst of a scandal!
Our confidential sources reported that, "the data crystals from the polling matrix at Highport Station have been corrupted"
The recent celebration of The Imperial Festivals of Greeting, which included the sold out appearance of the Diva Plava Laguna at renowned hotspot Sanctuary, made the polling kiosk there convient to a large number of voters, and makes the loss of those crystals the probable result of a deliberate attack.
Due to this appalling sabotage, shuttles are currently ferrying citizens to Al Raqis Square and the voting has been extended another week...
Voting will now be open through January 7th.
If YOU cast your vote at Highport you will need to come to Al Raqis to recast your ballot.
((OOC: As we are all aware the ONLY polling station for the Beit Dawla is in Al Raqis Square.... BUT... Please consider this news item as your own!
-did you or somone you care about vote at the station?
-have you been shuttling people in from various locales to recast their vote?
-did you hear a rumor of criminal types at Waypoint X bragging about the hack? -are you even, perhaps, glad that the elections got the old wrench in the works?
GOOD... to all of it!
And in truth, the extension is only because of the winter holidays. Unless you like to vote drunk, then go to town. :)
See you round town, in orbit, or out on the bled.

CFTA, Serenity Trading Merge
CNS services
AL RAQIS - In a surprising move this week, the Core Free Trade Alliiance (CFTA) and Serenity Trading announced a full merger of the two competing trade organizations to form one corporate entity. From the remains of both organizations rises the Serenity Trade & Freight Union (STFU). New offices will be located in Al Raqis. A 'duty free' private landing area for STFU pilots will remain on the surface as well as a strong presence on the orbiting Highport Station.
With the lifting of the blockade and trade restrictions from the Mu Draconis system, plus the silent role that independent traders had in getting the cure to the 'Black Pox" SAF Virus to the 34 Tauri system and other outlying worlds, the new company looks forward to a profitable future.
The Serenity Trade & Freight Union (STFU) is an alliance of independent freighter captains and spacefaring merchants working together for free trade in all parts of the galaxy. "Free" trade is a misnomer, as they do seek to make a profit. Think "free speech" and not "free beer."
The primary role of the STFU is that of a collective bargaining group and shared resources. The STFU allows small independents to make a better living as traders.

Laandsrat Arrested, Government Paralysed
By Joe Shin
Al Raqis Raconteur
AL RAQIS - The Arraxes goverment was paralyzed this week when the Beit Dawla issued arrest warrants for all members of the Laandrat, accusing the members of a lack of action on the Black Pox epidemic and of taking advantage of the crisis for profit.
Most members of the Laandsrat have been placed under house arrest with the exception of Zeno Baxton, who turned herself in and is currently being held in a cell at the government center. The order was issued by Beit Dawla leader Jade Moonkill.
"I hear by order, as an elected member of the Beit Dawla established by order of the Sovereign – His most Exaltedness the Emperor, the immediate arrest of all members of the Laandsrat Council and the executive board of ARPharm," Moonkill said in the announcment. "To face charges of treason against the people of Araxes and crimes against humanity for failure to act swiftly and appropriately in this pandemic, human trafficking and exploitation. I also order the seizure and freezing of all property, assets, and financial accounts of its members and the stock holders and members of the executive board of the ARPharm until the time that they have been tried and found not guilty."
At least three of the Laandsrat members were also citizens of the UAP in 34 Tauri. The UAP government decried reactions in a statement.
"The UAP is most distressed to learn that its citizens have been placed under arrest on Araxes by order of a member of the Beit Dawla. Jade Moonkill is also a citizen of the Alliance, and it is troubling to see what one person can do to her fellow citizens," said a government spokeswoman.
Magistrate Joan Al Kafar of Arraxes, who was also one of those served warrants, declined comment.
Rersidents of Arrexes have been largely silent in the latest turn of the crisis, waiting to see what happens in the first big political crisis since the establishment of the Beit Dawla as a seperate branch of the Arraxen government.

UAP Expresses Anger on Virus Cure Cost
CNS Reports
NEW WESTMINSTER, Londinium - The governemtn of the Union of Allied Planets released a strong statement this week as the virus now known as the Black Pox continues to spread.
The Offices of the Surgeon General, UAP Health Services, and the Allied Medical Congress (AMC) on behalf of Parliament have issued a joint press statement condemning the actions of the Imperium and the Magistrate of Al Raqis, Joan al-Jofar.
"We find her attitude to be cold, heartless, and inhumane," said Surgeon General Liam Xiaoshen. "At the time when this pandemic is raging through her own system and into ours to charge a usurious fee for the vaccine is tantamount to a declaration of war. We have been in close contact with our mission on Araxis, Lady Zeno Baxton and Consulari Jai Raghilda of Zenobia, to formulate a policy response as well as obtain any necessary raw materials to develop the vaccine in our own system."
Xiaoshen went on to say that the AMC has been working with the Gehörnspiel Corporation on Ariel as well as Barrowclough Apothocary and the Trader's Guild to ensure rapid production and distribution of the treatment.
Members of parliament, speaking on condition of anonymity, have said that they are pushing for stronger action, including economic sanctions against the Imperium. When asked if that would include military action, no definitive answer was given.
UAP spokesperson Kimaya Liamano denied that the language was too strong.
"They are fully aware of the attitude that the natives of Araxis have displayed toward the people of 34 Tauri and other worlds," she said. "One might think that this virus, since the Desen appear to be immune, is an attack on non-native populations engineered by the Imperium. We are conducting further investigations into this theory."
The Verse Voice reached the Magistrate for comment.
"This is an incredibly complex and expensive serum to produce," Commented the Magistrate. "The Laandsrat is has been subsidizing the research and production costs since the outset of this outbreak"
"Thanks to my generosity ARPharma is able to sell the vaccine at a mere 20,000 solaris per unit." She explained. "That's a only a little more than half a common workers yearly wages. Is that too much to ask for your life? We worked very hard to make it affordable to almost every citizen. If we gave the serum away then who would pay the stockholders and how could we afford to cure the next virus?"
As of press time, the virus has spread to Spinwheel City with 2000 infected and 57 dead, Colchester with 50 infected and two dead and two infection on the isolated moon of Burnet. Infections are still increasing on Colchester and Paquin. There have also been isolated reports of the virus on Dragon's Egg, but no sign of active infections on that moon.

Viral Outbreak Flares again
Raconteur reports
AL RAQIS, Arraxes - An intercepted transmission over subspace by the SS VULTURE while in orbit of Araxes indicates that the virus has indeed spread off planet. Despite a heavy quarantine and grounding all flights out of Araxes, a small merchant vessel has been discovered a few parsecs away with all six crew members dead. Cause of death appears to be the same virus that has been plaguing the planet.
Local medical authorities have also confirmed new cases of the virus on the surface. Earlier reports of the eradication of this virus were unfounded.
Medical facilities aboard the SS VULTURE are available for local medical personnel. The ship is docked at Bay 3 of Highport Station. Special Medical shuttles and equipment have been ferried to the surface for use by local medical teams in combating this outbreak.
OOC NOTES: There is a landing pad just west of the Spice Refinery on the desert floor. It is a rezzer to supply a Londinium Medivac Shuttle to anyone. The shuttles have a 30 minute lifespan and will de-rez on their own. They seat a pilot, two crew, and one patient. It's a sort of flying ambulance and is clearly marked. Clicking the cabinets will give residents medical clothing and equipment.

OOC: RP Notice for Players
It has been observed by Orion Operatives at UFS that Starfleet is now receiving attacks from people not in the Orion-Starfleet roleplay. It is very important that you wear your meter AND your group title when roleplaying with the UFS personnel or on their home sim. Otherwise you could be mis-identifed as a griefer. Small courtesy that results in avoiding big mistakes.
