[15:49] You: My division announcements will be short, due to my recent absences due to my family life..(or lack thereof)
[15:50] You: Our meeting on monday, was small but eventful.
[15:50] You: We have changed the titles of our staff to better reflect their jobs, and to make room for more possible duties if the need arises later.
[15:50] You: The Socialogic classes are now a series of classes not just one class. once they have been fully completed to teach, the counseling courses will also be updated.

[15:51] You: Also with the new Ten Forward, this added some fun to the group. (I'd Encourage all of you to check it out) We still have some things to work on, as a group, and that is acceptance. And to cherish the uniforms we wear, and be true to the trek ideals. Which is tolerance and understanding of your fellow man/alien

[15:52] You: next report
[15:52] You: Lead Research Lt Andromeda Quonset
[15:52] Ryan Franciosa: woohoo GO ANDRO
[15:52] Andromeda Quonset: Thank you admiral, good afternoon everyone!
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: This will be brief.
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: If anyone has questions during my report, please feel free to ask me at the end, and I will address them, lag-permitting
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: Item 1: MEETING SCHEDULE INFORMATION
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: The research subdivision tries to meet once per week.
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: Notice of meetings is generally included in The Fleet Admiral's weekly Announcements.
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: Please keep up with reading the announcments.
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: The next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, April 26, 2007 at 11:00 AM SLT
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: I mean May 3
[15:54] Si Arcadia smiles.
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: Note the new time!
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: Item 2: The Research subdivision is temporarily quartered in the Sato Center, on the second floor.
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: You may drop notecards for me, or the subdivision, into the PADD on my desk.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: Additionally, there is a new online-indicator on my desk. Clicking on it will result in a message sent to me, both in-world and off-world, requesting my presence to the location.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: Item 3: If you have a project suggestion, or any other inquiry, the research subdivision prefers that you put it on a notecard, and put it in the PADD on my desk.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: This helps with formalizing our projects, and keeping projects from getting lost or forgotten, buried in one person's inventory.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: Or sent as an IM and never being documented at all, depending on one person's memory.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: Also, please remember to put your name in the contents of any notecards, and rename the notecard to something other than "New Note".
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: I have received my share of notecards which are both named "New Note", and containing no names, forcing me to have to look at the notecard properties to see who sent it.
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Item 4 (LAST): The turbolift emergency buttons have been downgraded: all they do is summon me to the designated turbolift.
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: End of report
[15:56] Erich Plunkett: raises hand
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Are there any questions? Comments?
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Erich?
[15:56] Erich Plunkett: thank you
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Item 4 (LAST): The turbolift emergency buttons have been downgraded: all they do is summon me to the designated turbolift.
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: End of report
[15:56] Erich Plunkett: raises hand
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Are there any questions? Comments?
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Erich?
[15:56] Erich Plunkett: thank you
[15:57] Erich Plunkett: many of us have full-time jobs and this goes to other departments as well and having meetings at 11:00 AM SLT is an impossibility for some people to actually attend (not necessarily just me)
[15:57] Andromeda Quonset: Erich, that is a good question. I'm glad you bring it up.
[15:57] Erich Plunkett: especially on a work day
[15:58] Andromeda Quonset: Traditionally, I have been holding the meetings at 8:00 pm SLT.
[15:58] Andromeda Quonset: The last meeting had 1 member present, along with the fleet admiral.
[15:58] Erich Plunkett: lol
[15:58] Andromeda Quonset: She suggested I might increase the attendance if I tried for a daytime hour.
[15:59] Andromeda Quonset: I have had to cancel meetings lately becuase nobody shows up at all.
[15:59] Talon Lardner whistles... "Yeah, that's at midnight for me...
[15:59] Totalus Karas: maybe it would be feesible to send a note out to find out when the members of your team are online most as im trying to do with my department to see when and if people are available?
[15:59] Erich Plunkett: this excludes the older people in SL, which is my point .. there must be an alternate solution?
[15:59] Andromeda Quonset: I had considered liquidating the department entirely.
[16:00] Andromeda Quonset: Any other questions?
[16:00] Erich Plunkett: maybe not THAT extreme
[16:00] Katrina Bixby: the is a bit extreme lol
[16:00] Talon Lardner: Perhaps one could use the new boards to host ideas
[16:00] Hugh Dench: (Sorry my dear friends, I have to go, have a nice day ! )
[16:00] Charlie Laffer: the EUROC is aiming to establish meeting times that would be at hours that might well be beneficial to more than just Europeans....
[16:00] Katrina Bixby: bye Hugh
[16:01] Hugh Dench smiles
[16:01] Dirk Klees: good n8 Hugh
[16:01] Si Arcadia: See-you, hugh
[16:01] Areyn Laurasia: (bye Hugh)
[16:01] Jin Tao: bye Hugh
[16:01] Andromeda Quonset: I'm sorry, but it gets very frustrating to constantly have low attendance, with 75 people supposedly in the subdivision.
[16:01] Erich Plunkett: I appreciate that
[16:01] Andromeda Quonset: Are there any other questions?
[16:01] Vanessa Noarlunga: raises hand...
[16:01] Andromeda Quonset: Yes Vanessa?
[16:01] Jessica Kanahoe: /title blue Captian Of Uss Liberty
[16:02] Jessica Kanahoe: /title Captian Of Uss Liberty
[16:02] Vanessa Noarlunga: We are working on a pod cast project where meetigns can be "taped" and thus made available to all..
[16:02] Andromeda Quonset: What is a podcast?
[16:02] Vanessa Noarlunga: It won't be a perfecgt system but prhaps a semi solution
[16:02] Vanessa Noarlunga: s video thaty can be accessed via the internet
[16:03] Andromeda Quonset: I see.
[16:03] Andromeda Quonset: That may be a solution, but we must also have something that offers closed captioning.
[16:03] Vanessa Noarlunga: It does have that
[16:03] Andromeda Quonset: Good.
[16:03] Halogen Plasma: no interaction with a video
[16:03] Dirk Klees: You can upload the Videos at youtube and i can open a podcast /vidcast-forum for that vanessa
[16:04] Talon Lardner: Or you could use the message board....
[16:04] Rowan Jacobus: yay, technology!
[16:04] Andromeda Quonset: This sounds like details we can handle outside of the GM.
[16:04] Vanessa Noarlunga: I didn't say it was perfect...Dark alpha and the EUROC team working on a Scheduling clock ...that might help too...
[16:04] Dirk Klees agrees
[16:04] Vanessa Noarlunga lowers hand
[16:04] Andromeda Quonset: Thank you all!
[16:04] Totalus Karas: we are indeed

[15:51] You: Also with the new Ten Forward, this added some fun to the group. (I'd Encourage all of you to check it out) We still have some things to work on, as a group, and that is acceptance. And to cherish the uniforms we wear, and be true to the trek ideals. Which is tolerance and understanding of your fellow man/alien
[15:51] You: Thank you all...and sorry i cant be here...lots of family issues going on right now
[15:51] You: Have a good week.

[15:52] You: next report
[15:52] You: Lead Research Lt Andromeda Quonset
[15:52] Ryan Franciosa: woohoo GO ANDRO
[15:52] Andromeda Quonset: Thank you admiral, good afternoon everyone!
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: This will be brief.
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: If anyone has questions during my report, please feel free to ask me at the end, and I will address them, lag-permitting
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: Item 1: MEETING SCHEDULE INFORMATION
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: The research subdivision tries to meet once per week.
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: Notice of meetings is generally included in The Fleet Admiral's weekly Announcements.
[15:53] Andromeda Quonset: Please keep up with reading the announcments.
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: The next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, April 26, 2007 at 11:00 AM SLT
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: I mean May 3
[15:54] Si Arcadia smiles.
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: Note the new time!
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: Item 2: The Research subdivision is temporarily quartered in the Sato Center, on the second floor.
[15:54] Andromeda Quonset: You may drop notecards for me, or the subdivision, into the PADD on my desk.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: Additionally, there is a new online-indicator on my desk. Clicking on it will result in a message sent to me, both in-world and off-world, requesting my presence to the location.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: Item 3: If you have a project suggestion, or any other inquiry, the research subdivision prefers that you put it on a notecard, and put it in the PADD on my desk.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: This helps with formalizing our projects, and keeping projects from getting lost or forgotten, buried in one person's inventory.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: Or sent as an IM and never being documented at all, depending on one person's memory.
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: Also, please remember to put your name in the contents of any notecards, and rename the notecard to something other than "New Note".
[15:55] Andromeda Quonset: I have received my share of notecards which are both named "New Note", and containing no names, forcing me to have to look at the notecard properties to see who sent it.
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Item 4 (LAST): The turbolift emergency buttons have been downgraded: all they do is summon me to the designated turbolift.
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: End of report
[15:56] Erich Plunkett: raises hand
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Are there any questions? Comments?
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Erich?
[15:56] Erich Plunkett: thank you
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Item 4 (LAST): The turbolift emergency buttons have been downgraded: all they do is summon me to the designated turbolift.
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: End of report
[15:56] Erich Plunkett: raises hand
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Are there any questions? Comments?
[15:56] Andromeda Quonset: Erich?
[15:56] Erich Plunkett: thank you
[15:57] Erich Plunkett: many of us have full-time jobs and this goes to other departments as well and having meetings at 11:00 AM SLT is an impossibility for some people to actually attend (not necessarily just me)
[15:57] Andromeda Quonset: Erich, that is a good question. I'm glad you bring it up.
[15:57] Erich Plunkett: especially on a work day
[15:58] Andromeda Quonset: Traditionally, I have been holding the meetings at 8:00 pm SLT.
[15:58] Andromeda Quonset: The last meeting had 1 member present, along with the fleet admiral.
[15:58] Erich Plunkett: lol
[15:58] Andromeda Quonset: She suggested I might increase the attendance if I tried for a daytime hour.
[15:59] Andromeda Quonset: I have had to cancel meetings lately becuase nobody shows up at all.
[15:59] Talon Lardner whistles... "Yeah, that's at midnight for me...
[15:59] Totalus Karas: maybe it would be feesible to send a note out to find out when the members of your team are online most as im trying to do with my department to see when and if people are available?
[15:59] Erich Plunkett: this excludes the older people in SL, which is my point .. there must be an alternate solution?
[15:59] Andromeda Quonset: I had considered liquidating the department entirely.
[16:00] Andromeda Quonset: Any other questions?
[16:00] Erich Plunkett: maybe not THAT extreme
[16:00] Katrina Bixby: the is a bit extreme lol
[16:00] Talon Lardner: Perhaps one could use the new boards to host ideas
[16:00] Hugh Dench: (Sorry my dear friends, I have to go, have a nice day ! )
[16:00] Charlie Laffer: the EUROC is aiming to establish meeting times that would be at hours that might well be beneficial to more than just Europeans....
[16:00] Katrina Bixby: bye Hugh
[16:01] Hugh Dench smiles
[16:01] Dirk Klees: good n8 Hugh
[16:01] Si Arcadia: See-you, hugh
[16:01] Areyn Laurasia: (bye Hugh)
[16:01] Jin Tao: bye Hugh
[16:01] Andromeda Quonset: I'm sorry, but it gets very frustrating to constantly have low attendance, with 75 people supposedly in the subdivision.
[16:01] Erich Plunkett: I appreciate that
[16:01] Andromeda Quonset: Are there any other questions?
[16:01] Vanessa Noarlunga: raises hand...
[16:01] Andromeda Quonset: Yes Vanessa?
[16:01] Jessica Kanahoe: /title blue Captian Of Uss Liberty
[16:02] Jessica Kanahoe: /title Captian Of Uss Liberty
[16:02] Vanessa Noarlunga: We are working on a pod cast project where meetigns can be "taped" and thus made available to all..
[16:02] Andromeda Quonset: What is a podcast?
[16:02] Vanessa Noarlunga: It won't be a perfecgt system but prhaps a semi solution
[16:02] Vanessa Noarlunga: s video thaty can be accessed via the internet
[16:03] Andromeda Quonset: I see.
[16:03] Andromeda Quonset: That may be a solution, but we must also have something that offers closed captioning.
[16:03] Vanessa Noarlunga: It does have that
[16:03] Andromeda Quonset: Good.
[16:03] Halogen Plasma: no interaction with a video
[16:03] Dirk Klees: You can upload the Videos at youtube and i can open a podcast /vidcast-forum for that vanessa
[16:04] Talon Lardner: Or you could use the message board....
[16:04] Rowan Jacobus: yay, technology!
[16:04] Andromeda Quonset: This sounds like details we can handle outside of the GM.
[16:04] Vanessa Noarlunga: I didn't say it was perfect...Dark alpha and the EUROC team working on a Scheduling clock ...that might help too...
[16:04] Dirk Klees agrees
[16:04] Vanessa Noarlunga lowers hand
[16:04] Andromeda Quonset: Thank you all!
[16:04] Totalus Karas: we are indeed
[16:05] Totalus Karas: its coming along quite nicely
