Colonials!

Here is that update on the status of Galacticon IV that I promised yesterday...

 

"Set all FTL drives across the fleet to the Seattle Center in Seattle, Washington from July 31st - August 2nd, 2015. That’s right Colonials, GalactiCon 4 will be happening in the beautiful emerald city of Seattle! (This explains all those Oz hints now, doesn’t it?)

The Seattle Center, where GalactiCon 4 2015 will be held, was the home of the 1964 Worlds Fair. Notable attractions at the Seattle Center include but are not limited to the Space Needle, EMP Museum, and The Pacific Science Center. There is also the monorail which can take fans back and forth from downtown!

Throw in the Browncoats and boy do we have a shiny shindig for you! " #galacticon4 #seattle #scificon #Firefly #Browncoats #BSG

 

So Say We All!

 Ensign Hammer's Last Mission

Ensign Michael “Hammer” Quinn set out on a routine Mapping mission in Raptor 320. His mission was completed and he was returning to the Raven, but as fate would have it Hammer was captured by the Cylons. Hammer was taken to a remote Laboratory and was used in one of the Cylons cruelest experiments to date. The Cylons were attempting to clone Hammer to create a new line of skin jobs to infiltrate the Colonial Fleet starting with the Battlestar Raven BFC-002.

 

Ens. Hammer’s return was overdue and a search party was sent to locate him and the missing Raptor he was piloting. The Raptor was located, but Hammer was no where to be found. Fortunately an Ion trail was discovered that led the search party to the dwarf planet and the secret Cylon Laboratory.

 

Mission Briefing:

 Alright Folks! You Know The Deal: Were Going To Knock Over Another Cylon Toy Factory; We're Also looking To Liberate Some hostages; We need To Let Them Know That They Can't Dig in our Back Yard!

All good things...

Jack Stauffer wanted me to share this with all of you...this is from him to you....

 

 
"BOJAY"  11/22/99 - 9/3/13
 
Bojay has chosen to leave the Galactica and rejoin Commander Cain and the Pegasus.  He is on deep space patrol chasing the golmongering Cylons.  Those of us he left behind will miss him greatly.  He was a true colonial warrior and a wonderful friend. Raise a cup of ambrosia to his memory knowing the Lords of Kobol are watching over him on his new adventures.
Jack

Happy Labor Day!

Hello Colonials!

A Happy Labor Day to all who work hard around our beautiful Earth.

This of course will also be a day that we salute another hero of Battlestar Galactica...but first we need to correct a "small" mistake...last time we had an ovation for Dick Durock...and unfortunately the certificate was made out to "Dirk" Durock...well, there is only one Dirk I know involved with Battlestar Galactica and he sure ain't a Cylon!

So to rectify that we re-present the certificate (please see below).

In the meantime let us all talk about the current Hero and the person accorded the honor.

She had a long and varied career on television, theater & as a playwrite and burst upon the BSG in  her pivotal role as the spiritual adviser to President Laura Roslin.

We salute Lorena Gale for her role as the Priestess Elosha!

So Say We All!

Battlestar Galactica and so much more!

HawaiiCon (www.hawaiicon.com) added Michael Hogan and Kate Vernon from the hit TV series Battlestar Galactica to their roster of stars.

HawaiiCon is scheduled for September 12-15, 2014 at the Hapuna Beach Prince Resort.

Pre-sales, via Kickstarter, hit 50% of our 30-day sales goal in under 4 days. We sold out of the most inexpensive tickets, but the hotel packages are priced so low, it is like getting your convention passes for free!

Tickets are $99 now and three night hotel packages start at only $595: less than any discount rate and includes one pass to the convention! You can put up to 3 adults in a room for even more savings.

In additional to the usual panels and workshops in the convention rooms, HawaiiCon will also provide you with the unique opportunity to go on tours, share a luʻau or go to the beach with your favorite stars. 

The signed list of celebrities continues to grows every week: Torri Higginson, Rachel Luttrell, Paul McGillion, Rainbow Francks and Andee Frizzell from Stargate: Atlantis are scheduled to appear for a 10th year reunion, along with Claudia Christian and Patricia Tallman from Babylon 5 and voice actress Cree Summer (Drawn Together). David Franklin is coming for 15th reunion of Farscape.

More actors and actresses will be added in the next few weeks. Panelists and workshop experts include world reknown Mars mission scientists, Hawaiian cultural experts, cosplay designers, robotics teams, astronomers, and aerospace experts.
