1.  Unrelated to what most of us consider news, well, not just most of us, but
everyone with the exception of Inazone: shamone!

2.  If you are one of the fans  that downloads their  iCE packs every month  to
read the creative and entertaining texts of senior staff like Force Ten, Slothy
and  these days, Mass Delusion - you can kiss that off!  There was an executive
decision made to begin  manipulating the info file  each month for our own more
devious purposes.  So, open your mind to subtle suggestions.

3.  Last month,  we compared  ourselves to the  soaring stock market,  with the
exception  that we weren't subject to  any crashes.  Well, it's sad to say that
we've  had yet another  unbelievable month of  returns and we're  still beating
the  analysts  predictions!  (isn't  that  quaint?)   Joining  this  month  was
TaintedX, bringing  with him not only some great  ansi, but an attitude that is
most  definitely iCE : welcome  aboard!  We're also seeing returns  from one of
our favorites,  Count Zero  and a longtime  revival by that little third  party
monkey, Misfit.  Welcome back boys!

4.  Some  people might call it luck, we like  to call it, well, luck I suppose,
so what's your point?

5.  For  several years now, emulators have allowed  computer owners to play the
actual arcade favorites  of the last decade on  their home computer.  Using the
real  ROM from the arcade game, these  emulators play NES, SNES, Sega, Neo-Geo,
etc.  What's new however, is Syntax Error's involvement in a  pure ASM emulator
released  recently  called  "Retrocade"!  This  new emulator  is blazingly fast
and  features all  artwork done  by  iCE  members.  Check it  out right  now at
http://www.retrocade.com!

6.  After  winning a  forfeit to Dark team #1 in  the Blender contest, the  iCE
team  is preparing  to take on Mistigris in the Blender  Final!  We welcome one
and all to  come and serve as iCE cheerleaders.  Of  course, nudity is required
and if you're male, you have to stand over in Nosegos' corner.

7.  Brevity is a wonderful thing.  Brevity allows us to take a succinct thought
and deliver it in a compact package, accurately  conveying our meaning and tone
to  the receiving party giving  communication efficiency and enjoyment  for all
involved and for those observing.

8.  Lastly, we have  been harping on the new v2 of www.ice.org for a long, long
time  now.  However, the  work is coming to a close, so it  will be very,  very
soon.  This stage  will be replaced shortly by the very, very, very soon stage.

9.  Questions,  answers,  proposals of marriage or  foosball challenges  may be
directed to the iCE Senior Staff at icestaff@ice.org.
