Get the Caprican to go.
Beauty, success and a loving family. It appears that Caprica City's own Graystone clan have it all - and they do. The Caprican takes a peek behind the curtain and scopes out the lives of one of the planet's - nay, the Colonies' - most influential families.

Of course, when it comes to progressive, everything starts with the Graystones, themselves. Everyone knows Daniel Graystone, founder and CEO of Graystone Industries and pretty much THE name in the technology sector. But his wife, Amanda, is no slouch, a brilliant surgeon and partner in Daniel's social efforts. The couple's daughter, Zoe, attends the prestigious Athena Academy and while we'd never stoop to rumor and innuendo (who, us?), let's just say that we've heard her hard-partying ways are bound to land her on the gossip pages some day, where gaggles of Caprican girls will eat up her every escapade.

Can you hear it? The spring of the ballistae. The carom of balls off of court walls. The whistle of the Regis robbing the Buccaneers of another Cinq. That's right, the CPL season is right around the corner, and we here at The Caprican are ready to get our Pyramid on. We're not saying we're going Scorpian on you, but if you cut us, do we not bleed C-Bucs blue?

Still, even we can't help but wonder if the home team can snatch glory from the jaws of mediocrity this year. Excuses will be in short supply if they don't. Owner Daniel Graystone is only one of the wealthiest men in the Colonies, so it's not like the boys will be knitting their uniforms together during intervicus. What's more, the man is a bona fide Pyramid fanatic, so we can't imagine he'll be stingy with the purse strings when it comes time to shell out for top talent.  The C-Bucs have one of the highest payrolls in the league, which makes their recent inability to bring home the Challis all the more frustrating.

More CPL after the jump.

Someone recently set off a smoke bomb just outside of Goldie's Off Track Betting, and the public is blaming the monotheists. The MAGLEV trains have been running fewer and farther between lately, and the public is pointing fingers at the monotheists. A cat gets stuck in a tree, and the public yells the Monads scared it up there. Be calm.... More...

Opinion
OK, the staff here at The Caprican gets invited to all the hot new club openings (No, not because we're cooler than you. We review them). So we get to bypass the long lines and aloof bouncers. But now anyone can gain access to the hottest clubs in the Colony and never leave your house. All you need is a Holoband and a computer geek.

V-Clubs, as people in the know call them, are the products of savvy hackers who know more about technology than the penal code, and who can break the relatively benign Holoband security codes and create boundless virtual reality worlds.

A ribbon cutting ceremony will be held next Wednesday at Apollo University to dedicate the new Zoe Graystone Computer Science Wing.  The building is named for the daughter of Apollo University alumni Daniel Graystone, CEO and founder of Graystone Industries.  Groundbreaking began two years ago on the state-of-the-art multi million-cubit facility, which features networked lecture halls, state-of-the-art research labs, and...
