USS HAMILTON
Captain Antonio Leeds
GM: Janet Gist
*********************

After venting to CSO Mercedes McCarter about her "father," CEO 
Chandler
T'krn manages to keep Kevala-nightmares out of her mind long enough to
get 2 hours rest before the pre-dinner meeting. As they discuss the
coming mission and ship/personnel preparedness, FCO Zac Bentley shares
his concern that the Malandrous Nebula in the Balorr Sector, which 
they
will be passing close by, might be a Nu'Tsui hiding place, CNS Jo 
Carters
hypothesizes a connection between nearby extant civilizations and the
extinct one they are being sent to investigate, and CSO Mercedes 
McCarter
reveals a Security work-in-progress, namely a weapon prototype that
Specialist Teven likely will complete before they arrive in the 
Seltika
Sector.

The much awaited CGT results are doled out the next day. CO Antonio 
Leeds
commends Carters for having no trouble sending those under her into
danger (as the simulation required) and informs her that he has
recommended her for Starship Command. He cautions his wife and CMO, 
Jill
Landon-Leeds, about her hesitation on the same point, then lets her 
know
he has recommended her for a post as an executive officer. When CSciO
Sudak reports for his eval, Leeds expresses his admiration of the 
Vulcan
officer's performance and informs him that he has been recommended for
immediate placement as an OPS/FO as his next step along the command
career path.

USS HORIZON
Captain Tergin
GM: Ruud Visser
***************

(The Horizon is currently investigating a dark matter anomaly in the
Katarian sector.)

The Horizon is still deep inside the nebula where it has finally made
visual contact with Research Station Arkon. The dark matter seems to 
be
holding the station in its grip. A survey/evac team is formed to board
the station, which doesn't answer any hails. CNS Jay McMadeth knows he
has to go along to save the trans-dimensional Maggy. The Dakota is 
nearby
as well, but isn't able to contact the Horizon. Cmdr. Leyson Ayden 
beams
over to the station with a team as well in order to meet with the
Horizon's crew.


****************
USS ATHENE
Commander Krwn
GM Kathy Ruether
****************

>From the suggestion of a "Trojan pie" inspired by the Trojan horse by 
the
CSO, Ian Hollander come many other suggestions from the crew of the
ATHENE. Inside of this pie spy equipment would be placed to monitor 
the
Talosians' telepathic abilites and find out where the humans are or
precieve themselves to be if it were to fall into their hands. He also
states that the Talosians should still be peaceful towards the 
Federation
since they were when contact was last made and maybe there is a good
reason for the distress call then.

FO, Miranda Sands suggests that the humans and Melkot won't be in a 
small
group and the Talosians might be trading with this group to get what 
they
want from the group and the group gets what they need from the 
Talosians.
The crew could hold some kind of a "bake sale" and plant the devices 
in
the money that they use.

A way to get in and undetected is still a problem. For a way to show 
up
on the plant, CNS, Jur Lehron, says that they should act like they 
need
assistance so that they will learn more that way then if they were
feared. CEO suggests a crash landing of a unmarked shuttle will get 
the
Talosians or the humans to come help and contact the crew.

DS 101

On Cichoka III:

Dr. Villeray was kidnapped from a meeting with the planet's medical
authorities.  Her whereabouts are still unknown.  The ships that 
attacked
the HIKARU and subsequently apparently self-destructed, turned out to
have been destroyed by an official Gortu vessel.  After conversation 
with
the Gortu President Akamai, it was decided that the HIKARU would 
attempt
to replace the methane in the atmosphere as a gesture of the 
Federation
good intentions.  It was hoped that this action would deflect some of 
the
more violent reactions to Federation presence on Cichoka III.  After
study by the Science Department a plan to replace ninety-five percent 
of
the methane with nitrogen was devised.

On DS-101:

Jel'ar and Rouge beam aboard the Ferengi trade vessel.  A deal for all
Jel'ar wants, along with a method to smuggle the illegal arms aboard
DS-101, is concluded.  Movement of the shipment begins.

Cocoon Fleet Situation Intelligence Report (by Adm. Elisabeth Davies)
*********************************************************************
UPDATED SD 13.0213

The Federation/Na'Chem Ceasefire is still in effect.  Although, the
Na'Stiu faction continues with efforts to upset the Ceasefire.  The 
USS
SELEYA has met with leaders of one cell of the Na'Stiu and continue to
negotiate for a peaceful arrangement, despite Na'Stiu attacks 
continuing
from other cells.  The USS ZEUS came under fire during a recent 
patrol,
but the attackers were repelled with no casualties on the ZEUS.  
Na'Stiu
vessels have avoided conflict with the USS XERXES.

Diplomatic relations with the Juun are still considered to be in 'a 
tense
period' and talks have been initiated to resolve the situation.  
Captain
Mara Nemec has been somewhat successful in establishing a working
dialogue with leaders of anti-Federation factions.  Progress is slow 
but
noticeable.

Official reports on the temporal anomalies in the Cocoon have been
released to upper administration, but remain highly classified.  No
further information will be presented on this matter.

Actions to relegitimize SFIntel are proceeding.  Recent rogue SFIntel
activity aboard the USS HAMILTON has been contained, and 
investigations
will continue on all levels of SFIntel.



***************************************
Amgine Sector Report (by Lt. Alac Nond)
***************************************

OP108 has completed installation of its orbital docking platform and
commercial and Fleet activity continues to grow in the area.  Due to
extenuating circumstances, the USS COCHRANE has been recalled from its
mission to investigate missing ships in the area of the wormhole.  
Fleet
Administration is currently evaluating the situation and a new 
mission to
investigate will begin soon.

Results of the Noo'Ach Peace and Trade conference are showing 
measurable
effects as the Federation is currently considering three new
civilization's applications to the UFP.  Continuous trade routes have
been established with the Malvedians and the Zillimese.  Members of 
the
Sori'arian race have set up commercial outlets on DS101 and are still
negotiating for a more active trade with the Federation.



*****************************************
Beyond the Portal (by LtCmdr. Eli Meyman)
*****************************************

Relations with the Klingon Empire continue to improve, with the
reactivation of the officer exchange program.  Primarily medical, 
science
and engineering officers have been exchanged, including one officer on
the USS HORIZON. Still no official comments from the Cardassian Union.

The new Tecumseh-class battle cruiser, the USS ATHENE, has entered the
primary stage of its mission and all communication has ceased, as per
orders, since leaving StarBase 11.  The mission is expected to last 
three
weeks.

Activity on the Tholian border has increased, and StarFleet is sending
more ships to investigate.  No conflict is expected, but the Tholians
have refused to answer diplomatic overtures and maintain contact 
silence.
Most recent reports indicate that the activity is primarily colonial 
and
commercial.

Romulan Ambassador Tultia has arrived on Bajor to meet with Vulcan
leaders. The subject is unification, although Tultia is widely known 
to
be adamantly against the unification movement and no progress is
expected, according to the Diplomatic Corps.  Vulcan Ambassador Skarov
has stated that he will do everything possible to work with Ambassador
Tultia and her staff to progress toward a satisfactory result.
