By JAMES THILL - Saturday, October 4, 2251
Rare Material commodity prices are at their lowest price in a couple of months at 5830 CR/MT as of today, fresh evidence that investors are betting on a downturn in the global economy after years of sluggish growth and scant inflation. Now, as signs of inflation and improving global demand have returned, investors are beginning to shy away from commodities. A sustained slump in commodities would likely signal unhealthy consumer and business demand.

Unemployment Controlled
By ANGELA SMITH - Thursday, October 2, 2251
The USR authorities reported on Friday that Deois unemployment has fallen to the lowest level in about a month. That is a reported 0.07% of Deois inhabitants not officially employed.

But maybe there is a dark underbelly to our world? What are the implications for crime and of course for personal protection? We will follow this story.

A-4 Lost in Terrain Collision
By JAMES THILL - Monday, September 29, 2251
An A-4 Wanderer, flown by Midshipman JAMES ROBISON (rebel), crashed into terrain Tuesday at 03:21Z at Outer D Deois Farm 07 in the Trebmal region. The pilot, the only occupant listed aboard, was killed. Local weather observations recorded visibility of 0.88 km, a cloud ceiling of 871 meters above the ground, surface winds of 7.72 m/s, rain. Those observations do not yet establish weather as a cause. Investigators will look to the aircraft's "black box" for clues to its final flight path. Locating and recovering the flight data recorder will be an early priority; no recent ATC track is available for this preliminary account.
