First the important stuff, Assassin is spread over three days, heroic tier on the 11th, paragon tier on the 14th and epic on the 21st.
The much discussed Great Weapon fighter article is on the 14th also.
The 8th will have a PHB3 preview; Skill Powers.
The 9th has an Explore Fairhaven article in Dungeon.
The 18th has a Cleric Essentials article and the 25th has one for Wardens.
Also another In the Works on the 8th.
There is a bit more, but until we get closer and actually get more info it's hard to get excited about, say Adventures in the Realms until you know where it will cover.

Huh.
Skill Powers.
Craft (Baskets)
Standard Action At Will * Skill, Basket
Target: One pile of materials.
Attack: Craft (Basket) vs. DC
Hit: You craft one basket.
Miss: You craft one **** basket.
Effect: Your friends now know that you... craft baskets... as a hobby. Weird.
Skill powers could be great.
Just think what Acrobatics powers could do, or Arcana powers or Endurance powers. Be very interesting to see what they are.
Don't forget the Domains of Dread X Scales of War crossover event this September the 9th!
EDIT: I was wondering, have they switched over to the new format of Players' material in Dragon, DM's material in Dungeon? This month seems all Players' stuff in Dragon, and an Explore article (something usually in Dragon) is in Dungeon along with the adventures. Could we finally be getting our big shift here?
No, I believe they said they would announce when the changeover takes place.

Of course, they're likely to announce it in the editorials!
That was my thought too. If this is the time to switch, they'll announce it at the beginning of September, rather than just now as they preview September's content titles.
I think that we are going to get the assassin in the character builder on tuesday but that they are going to have in depth discussion of the class in all of its tiers on the dates mentioned. the reason that I say this is that they haven't got the date for the character builder and compendium update yet. If it isn't then oh well, it'll be closer to my birthday anyway.

Over in the DDI General forums, I found this:
The assassin articles are going to come out throughout september with 3 seperate articles focusing on Heroic, Paragon, and Epic. It won't be just powers as paths, destinies, feats, etc. are also part of each tier.
This assassin material will be showing up in Character Builder with the October 6th update.
Well at least its a late birthday present for me on the character builder. I was so hoping to get it on tuesday, before the school term starts, so I could build characters.
It certainly looks like we will get our money's worth in september. An article for fighters, clerics, and wardens... Not bad. I am especialy excited about the Warden article. My current character is a warden, and while i have absolutely 0 complaints about what we got in PHB2 for the warden, I'm looking forward to getting some new toys.
I totally called it. The new Dungeon editorial has announced that this month starts the switch over to Player-only Dragon and DM-focused Dungeon.
Skill Powers look to be an excellent addition to the powers list.
