We’ve updated the site with the chapter discussion for Chapter Two: Evasion of Eclispe.  You can discuss the chapter over at our message boards.  Many thanks to Cocoa for sending in the chapter!

If you read between the lines on this article, there is more evidence for Edi Gathegi being Laurent, despite it not being officially announced by Summit.

In general, now that Charlie, Renee, and Laurant are all but confirmed by the studio. (They have been confirmed by the actors themselves, their agents and/or secondary new outlets) that only really leaves a couple of people left, and given what their photos look like…

The remaining members of the Twilight cast are about the worst kept secret in the entertainment industry, right up there with "Is Angelina Jolie pregnant?"

I feel like we need a new logo with Edward and Bella riding in like the calvary on the back of a giant bird. Anyway we are back up.

Our new server came online at 10:56 pm est least night. 24601 got right to work, and despite a really frustrating power outage at around 11:00pm when he had to start all over again, we seem to be back up. He was at it until about 2:00am. Hopefully, knock on wood, we are fairly intact with the below exception.

The one item that does need to settle is what’s called DNS. In it’s simplest terms, for you non-technical folks, DNS is a series of numbers assigned to the server your website sits on that identifies it to the world. It takes the world awhile to catch up to your new DNS when you move. Think of it like the post office catching up to you with forwarded letters. In both cases sometimes it works great, other times the forwarded letter takes extra time getting to you.  So, in as much as the Lexicon has been on no less than 6 servers in the last 30 days, let’s just say that the post office is working overtime. They will eventually all figure out the "change of address" but it may take a couple of days.  What this means is that although you see the site now, someone who uses a different cable provider may not or vice versa. Also you may see it now, but not see it three hours from now. It just needs a good 3-5 days to really settle in. Don’t worry, although annoying, this is normal.

Feel free to used the blog and forum as you always did. If you find a glitch (there’s bound to be a glitch some place) report it in accident prone if it is a forum glitch, or on this thread if it is a blog glitch.  Eventually we will debug everything, but it might take a bit.

Vesperarium run by the fabulous Cornie and team has some wonderful graphics featuring the new cast. Do stop by!

This reminder just in from Cullengirl:

"Twilight is up for the Abraham Lincoln Award in IL- a book award that teens get to pick as their favorite. Teens, teachers, and librarians need to go to their libraries-school and/or public library to see if their libraries are participating in the Abraham Lincoln Award and vote for Twilight! The more people vote, the better! Voting ends Monday, March 3rd."

We all saw the clip of Emily and Whoopi discussing Twilight on The View.  Now Emily has reviewed Twilight for Cosmogirl.  The review is great and Emily seems to enjoy the books as much as we all do!

Please remeber to keep your comments appropriate.

After weeks of speculation Creator.com has comfirmed that Billy Burke will indeed be playing Charlie Swan in the upcoming Twilight movie.  The article can be found here.  The information is in the last section under The Big Screen Scene.  Congratulations to Billy Burke, we are sure he’ll be a great Charlie. 

Thanks to poetrytoprose for the heads up!

Peter Facinelli, who is playing Carlisle Cullen in the upcoming Twilight movie,  updated his MySpace answering a few fan questions.  No hard feelings, Peter, for not answering mine 🙂

Also, the people who can’t seem to get beyond typecasting seem to have gotten to Robert Pattinson. Hey Robert, here we’re all about giving you a fair chance!

I just received the following information from Stephenie’s publicist:

"Could you please clarify that the Host tour is announced until the week of March 10th, not the actual 10th…I don’t want the fans to get over anxious. 
 
Also, I saw that there are some upset fans about the cities changing – any information on ARCs are subject to change.  Since ARCs are meant for industry people, this usually isn’t an issue…it was never meant as a confirmed listing of signings."

In responce to the hundreds of requests that I have received about the Eclsipe area of the site, I can now say that we are officially on top of it!  I have to appologize for this taking so very long, but I am THRILLED by the way the mods have banded together to get the Eclsipe discussion area filled!  I should be able to update that area of the site very regularly for the next few weeks.  Yeah to the mods! 

The Preface and Chapter One: Ultimatum have been posted.  You can find the discussion questions for the Preface and for Chapter One over on the message boards in the new forum titled "Fire and Ice."   Cocoa did these first two, so we have her to thank for getting us started.
