Clough added on 52210.1: The Science department has asked to work with us on a study of an unknown life force encountered recently. Lieutenant P'Trell has forwarded me the information we currently have on these beings, and I would like to see what more we can determine about them. The following was the information I received, please let me know what sort of studies are run in the infirmary, and any information such studies turn up. Thank you. Forwarded Information: The life forms - The life forms are semi-amorphic humanoids, with a rather loose and generally unspecified anatomic structure. The beings do have something that might pass as a musculo-skeletal structure and there are definitely internal organs at work, but they seem general and vague and the whole being give The are have a complex hydrocarbon based cellular structure, and it is difficult to understand quite how they function (you'll need help from biologists or medical). However, suspended in their cellular matrix are complex semi-inorganic crystalline organelles that are highly refractive and reflective. Initial research suggests that by altering the alignment and densities of these bodies, the beings could manage to bend and shape light, possibly in very complex ways. Depending on their evolutionary advancement and degree of control, they might be capable of creating very complex illusions, altering their appearance drastically.

Lace added on 52326.6: Ashilav added on 52317.1: During final testing of the SCARAB units, the unit designated as CURLY identified a problem in the isolinear chips of an EC-014-A tertiary backup system in my engineering console. Upon further inspection, it appears that an isolinear cascade failure occurred when the chips polarized from a previously undetected micro-flaw in one isolinear chip, which began spreading through the unit. I've spent a good amount of time this evening identifying why this was not detected by Titan nor engineering supply when the part was delivered - it took a very high-resolution scan to find the defect in the module in question, which is not part of our testing procedure, nor is it part of Titan's from what I can gather. Twenty eight modules were delivered to the station in recent days that have the defect- all other three-hundred forty eight modules currently in use on the station are unaffected. I recommend that Titan be notified and a recall be issued, and all EC-014-A modules be replaced with older models till Titan finds the breakdown in manufacturing.

Ensign Haven's concern and care for Ensign Bela throughout her pregnancy in spite of disagreements with both myself and Lieutenant Edwards gives me little doubt that she is fully able to function as a ranking officer in Starfleet regardless of personal opinions and biases, and her recent assistance with the casualties brought to the Aegis' sickbay followed by her unhesitating help with Lieutenant Dakin and the regeneration of his arm - although her likelihood of failure was near as great as the chance of success - only further suggests to me that she should be recognized both for her accomplishments and her beliefs. As such, I would like to recommend that you consider her for for a commendation as a result of her complete success in replicating Lt. Dakin's arm in far less time than any one expected the replication to take. Furthermore, I would ask that you consider promoting Ensign Haven to the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade so that she may claim the title of "Doctor" rightfully, which I believe she deserves.

Ghorev added on 52359.3: On Stardate 52357.7, while upgrading the sensor buoy ring around the Dulcais Sector Anomaly, USS Amazon noted an interruption in the flow of subspace communications. This was traced to a failure in Subspace Relay Station 23, which had gone offline, and come back online 235 seconds later with automated transponders only and been thrown more than 1LY from its deployed position. We received a distress call from CPO Yvonne Kirby, one of SRS23's 4-person crew. She indicated her team leader, LTJG Sovhar, was undergoing psychotic episodes, which, combined with the inexplicable movement, warranted proceeding to SRS23 at Yellow Alert and maximum Warp. We found SRS23 at emergency power with structural damage which Ensigns Idrani and Blair later determined to be physical torque and extreme aging stress. There were high concentrations of both chronitons and anti-chronitons in shift from one state to the other, causing unreliable sensor and transporter locks. Determining that one SRS23 crewman was already dead, and two more were in an unejected life-support pod, LTJG Golden, Dr. Haven, Agent Duncan and I proceeded into the wreckage to rescue the crew and contain and treat LTJG Sovhar. LTJG Sovhar ambushed the Away Team, using cover and throwing debris until we could pin him down with suppressive fire. His advanced condition rendered him resistant to stunning effects and Agent Duncan determined him to be at critical radiation saturation, in which any more exposure even to the nadions of our phasers could kill him. We were forced to engage hand-to-hand and sedate him, suffering minor injuries. During this encounter, Lt. P'Trell, left in command of Amazon, found enough of a pattern in the chroniton flux-shift to filter sensors through it, allowing Ensigns Blair and Idrani to rescue the remaining crew of SRS23 via transporter and making contact with USS Champion, a nearby ship. Ensign Blair also determined that the initial damage and position change to SRS23 was caused by a 'wave' of the unusual chronitons deduced by Lt. P'Trell and Agent Duncan, said wave still travelling at a speed of about Warp 2.2 on a direct collision course with the Dulcais Sector Anomaly. En route back to Station 419, we rendezvoused with USS Champion, which took the SRS23 crew into their sickbay for treatment we could not provide on the Runabout.

Golden added on 52366.6: Duty Log - After Action Report Stardate 52366.5 May 26th, 2375 On Stardate 52357.7 I was assigned to man the tactical station aboard the U.S.S. Amazon for a mission to deploy signals and communications boosters around the Anamoly under the command of Lt. Ghorev. Ensign Idrani was the helm officer and Ensign Blair was manning the Mission Operations and Engineering Station. Also accompaning the mission were Lt. P'Trell, the Chief Science Officer- Doctor Haven for medical support- and Department of Temporal Investigations Agent Duncan, who I presume was there to lend expertise in the matters of chronitonic disruption and the like. The mission proceeded on schedule and without incident until we completed installing buoy 19 and were enroute to section 20. Lt. Ghorev ordered Lt. Blair to do an open receive on all general communications in the region, to determine how much alteration was caused by the buoys and how much was caused by the Anamoly. We determined that a dopplar shift had occured in all the general communications and the non-general communications channels as well. Lt. Ptrell quickly realized that this was caused by an attempt to compensate for a missing relay. We determined that the missing relay was in fact Subspace Relay Station 23 and it had been offline for 212 seconds at that point. We attempted to make direct hail contact and were unable to do so, but the automated relays recommenced at the 232 second mark. Lt. Ghorev, following standing and general orders, redirected our course to investigate the unusual situation and ordered the launch of our data probe. It was determined that Subspace Relay Station 23 was 1 ly away from it's original position with no indicator how it could have manuevered the distance. We received a fragmented distress call from the area that matched up with personnel from SR23. After a 30 minute flight at maximum warp we arrived in the area and attempted to ascertain details of what had occured and what was occuring. We were able to get a scan despite the intense interference of positive and negative chroniton fluxuation, and from that determined that the Vulcan commander of the station was mobile, the human and napean crewmembers were taking refuge in an unlaunced escape pod, and the Tellerite was immobile and appeared to be deceased. Lt. Ghorev left Lt. P'Trell in command of the Amazon with Ensigns Blair and Idrani and lead an away mission with myself, Dr. Haven, and Agent Duncan. Following Lt. Ghorev's directions we were able to swiftly capture Lt. j.g. Sohvar and recover the corpse of the Tellarite chief. The crew on the Amazon were able to transport the other two crew members after clearing up the interference. We rendezvoused with the U.S.S. Champion and transferred over the entire crew of SR23. In this officer's opinion all members of the crew and away team comported themselves well and with adherence to Starfleet Regulations and Guidelines and it was through the decisive actions taken by Lt. Ghorev that lives were saved. End Report.

We couldn't find out how the gravity wells were created, but we believe that the design of the ship could be used to 'streamline' small warp vessels if studied more. After going over the logs of the attacks on the probes, it looks like the ship can use its gravitic capabilities to focus radiation on its target. The intensity of the radiation was so high that the probes systems were disrupted, but not so high that it would put a ship with shielding in harm. We also believe that it can utilize its abilities to launch objects, such as debris, at a target.

Re: Diplomatic Security Issues

Sir, having had some time to speak with others regarding our political climate locally and our security issues regarding our diplomats I would like to request the following:

1) That a Political Climate report be compiled by the station diplomatic staff for distribution to all of security that includes not only the public publicity data but real politic information gathered from whatever sources Diplomatic Section uses. I'm talking about keeping us informed what Clans or Houses or species the Diplomats and their families or close friends have rivalries or outright hostilities with. If for example one klingon attache's House is in a blood fued with another, we need to not only know about it, but also the symbols of that House, what subhouses fall under it, what their symbols are and so on. With this data we can construct software that will flag incoming data regarding these tags so we have an increased chance at heading off any critical incidents regarding such matters well before the station is in danger.

2)That each diplomatic group be encouraged to develop and evacuation and relocation plan now in case one should be needed in the future and that we be allowed to practice the execution of the main plan and its varients at reasonable intervals so tha we can be sure of it's smooth execution when it might be needed.

3)That measures be taken to ensure that no media images, either through our own PIB or related agencies or the propaganda divisions of any of the ambassadorial nations, be released showing the features of our standing security. By keeping what OpSec we can regarding the identity of those who serve as diplomatic security we make it more difficult for terrorists or other criminals to target the security of the Ambassadors and thus make an attack on them more difficult.

4) Considering that diplomatic pouches are sacrosanct and thus not for us to inspect as we would other incoming cargo, I suggest that we refit a Shuttle to act as a Quaratine station off the Starbase in a localized orbit with a rotating security detail. Agents of ambassadors could transfer to the shuttle and open any parcels and packages there extracting what data they might need and even dispose of them on site. This, though more incovenient for the Ambassadorial Staff, will facilitate us intercepting any inappropriate items that might normally be smuggled in on the diplomatic pouch -- by this I mean bombs aimed at the diplomats floated in through their own resident system, not any implication that our ambassadors themselves might be requesting anything inappropriate.

I realize that it is not my official capacity to worry about such things but I make these requests and suggestions based on lessons I have learned dealing of the after effects of cases where such precautions were not taken and highly motivated radicals took action.

With regards,

Lt. Dylan Golden

In helping with the investigation surrounding the deaths of Mr. Rade Noonan and the gardener Brect, I have perused Mr. Noonan's personal logs, looking for any insight into this matter. The subject matter, as these things go seemed highly personal and not much which would aid the investigation. Considering Ensign Gellan is mentioned often in his personal logs, I have forwarded them to her. Perhaps her insight as a counselor can determine something I could not.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This evening, I was notified of a medical emergency in the Neutral Zone by Ensign Idrani. Three visiting Rynkans appeared in respiratory distress for no immediately obvious reason. They were transported to the infirmary where we attempted to stabilize their condition. An unknown toxin was detected in their systems, and after repeated attempts to slow the toxin's affect and stabilize the patients, two were pronounced dead. In the meantime, Ensign Kiran reported two identical cases in the Dream Factory, and those Rynkans were transported to the infirmary as well. Lt. Ghorev was notified and attempted to use the transporter biofilter to remove the toxin from their systems. Although for a few moments, this appeared successful, the toxin inevitably returned and the Dream Factory Rynkans also arrested with all attempts at resuscitation failing. One member of the Neutral Zone Rynkans survived the toxin and remains in the infirmary under a level eight containment field. He is weak and will require a transfusion of Rynkan blood as soon as we can assure the sterility of retrieving this blood from the remaining Rynkans on board their vessel. He is unconscious and will be kept sedated until he shows signs of strengthening. In the meantime, I will be performing the autopsies on the bodies of the four Rynkans. Questions regarding this case should be directed to me.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

During watch in Operations we began to pick up three distress signals. One was from a fleet of Tierians near where the borders between the UFP Romulans and Klingons meet. The second was from a fleet of Rynkans near bak'TUR. The third was from a Romulan freighter on its way to Dulcais Prime. Apparently two Teirian ships were surrounded by four Rynkan ships near the borders and four Rynkan ships were surrounded by six Teirian ships near bak'TUR. And three Teirian ships and two Rynkan ships were near the Romulan freighter. We contacted the Rynkans who were sending a distress call first but they refused our offer of mediation. So I decided that we should concentrate on the Romulan freighter. We scrambled our runabouts and sent them to lend assistance. Unfortunately their ETA was a half an hour and anything could happen in that amount of time. So we hailed the Teirians in the vicinity of the Romulans and warned them about harming the Romulan citizens as the Romulan Empire would likely respond. But they were more preoccupied with their battle. After signaling the Romulans to do their best to avoid the firefight until our runabouts could get there a Romulan vessel decloaked and presumably as our sensors only registered a disappearance of the ships destroyed the Tierian and Rynkan combatants threatening their freighter. We contacted the Romulans who didn't seem to have a problem with having killed so many people and cited the fact that we did warn them. There wasn't much we could say to that. The transmission ended and the Romulan vessel cloaked while their merchant resumed course to Dulcais. At the time we noticed that the Rynkans from near bak'TUR were on a parallel course with the Romulans. We kept a close eye on them and ordered our runabouts to shadow the freighter until it arrived safely but the Rynkans didn't seem interested in it. They left soon after.

Re: The Planet Occa

Sirs,

On Stardate 52471.8 I was assigned as the combat weapons specialist to the Mission to the planet Occa under the command of Lt. Commander Michael Edwards (Executive Officer Starbase 419-U). Also on the mission were Mission Cultural Specialist Ensign Eliara Zian and Special Agent Mycroft Duncan of the Department of Temporal Investigations.

After successfully gaining the surface of the planet in the City of New Miami, the mission team proceeded in undercover attire to a bar called "Grix's". At Commander Edwards directive before entering, we entered seperately with Special Agent Duncan going first, followed by myself, and then Ensign Zian and Commander Edwards as a couple. I utilized the cover of the restroom to gain an immediate area energy weapons scan, discovering one 23rd century styled phaser in the hands of a man who would later be identified as Grix, the owner of the same named club. I passed this information along to Ensign Zian via her Betazoid ability to pick up our surface thoughts. Commander Edwards got into a heated discussion with the bartender who is later identified as Sam and Grix and was told to leave before the authorities were forced to be involved. We all departed under our own various covers. The streets of the city were under intense surveillance, so much so that after I had been sure I had found a location in what I thought was an alley to perform another energy scan, I was in fact standing directly in front of a camera with my tricorder as was revealed to myself by Special Agent Duncan. Through the medium of telepathy, Ensign Zian was able to establish contact with our Contact, who was in fact the same Grix that had directed Commander Edwards to leave not a quarter of an hour before. We returned to the club in a circumspect manner, knocking on the rear alley door as the club was closed.

Inside, our host explained that he was in fact an offworlder who had been on the planet to close an arms deal when the "revolution" had trapped him on the surface. I believe this is the same arms deal that Desmond Jones mentioned to myself that he was allegedly negotiating between the Klingons and former Occan government. He then made his list of requirements for his assisting Starfleet on Occa, mainly through his already established network of informants and local muscle. He had little personal information about what forces the Dominion might have in the line of starships in the area or landed on the planet. Ensign Zian seemed extremely leery of his true motives, particularly after he sent a local informant to the New Florida Military Police to be busted just to pass along to his contact there that we were around for him to come and visit.

Grix's contact, and now ours, in the NFMP is Captain Renauld. Renauld stated his terms for assistance, he expects an underground railroad to be established to smuggled thousands of Occans off the planet in lots of up to 20. He also seemed adverse to any talk of a structured insurrection. Once he started telling us his information though, he was detailed and to the point lending definite credibiilty. First of all, he specified there are 10,000 Jem'Hedar on the surface, with at least one Vorta supervisor, meaning they have 370 Dominion Companies on the surface. He also said there was another 20 in the Cloning Facility, I'd wager it is actually 27 which implies it is a Dominion Control Zone. Other control zones seem to be around a factory outside the city, and various government buildings around the capital and across the planet. The civilian populous is unaware of the presence of the Jem'Hedar at this point, believing that their former government was overthrown in a military coup and has installed a police state. That the govenment in exile did in fact flee to Starbase 419 and that the current government is actually the catspaw of the Dominion removes in my mind any question of our moral authority to assist the beleagured peoples of this planet under our current articles of war and the Prime Directive. I believe that the key controlled areas could be taken by strikes from Rapid Response teams and or Romulan Special Operation forces, but this will not address the fullness of the occupational force. Without the benefit of a popular uprising in support of liberation it seems that an entire Regiment of Starfleet Ground Forces will be required to have even a chance to take down the Dominion presence with any confidence -- and this will still require some sort of commando operation to disable the planetary shields prior to a mass landing and the resources to take and hold a beach head during the deployment of the ground forces.

In addition to the Jem'Hedar, Captain Renauld also stated that there are 5,000 Siinogans on the planet assisting the Dominion in their operations there. This will surely be important to the Klingons as this will invalidate the previous ruling by Starfleet Command that Bak'Tur falling to the Siinogans is a purely internal Klingon matter and not business for the alliance. On the bright side of this, the presence of the Siinogans and what it implies regarding Bak'Tur also gives strong probability to my thoughts anyway that the Klingons will be willing to give us aid in an assault on the Occan system, if not directly from the KDF at least from the house fleets and allies of the Klingons who once ruled on Bak'Tur.

Considering the numbers and resources of the Dominion presence on Occa, from the number of existing troops, the cloning facilities and the suspected Ketrecel White manufacturing facilities, it seems evident that the Dominion is building up for a major push in this sector. The logical next step would be the Andorian colony of Fimdari as control of that would give the Dominion and their Siinogan allies control of the entire lower half of the sector and put them in a strong position to assault Starbase 419 again with confidence of capture or destruction. Considering the importance of the Anamoly, my recommendation is to start immediately planning the commando raids and a major fleet incursion into the system to drive the Dominion back out of the Sector, followed by an Starfleet Interdiction of Siinoga and plans to retake Bak'Tur. The Andorians on Fimdari should be advised to increase their state of alertness, and if possible the ADF should be directed to increase their presence and coordinate with the Alliance fleet in the area for this mission. I also advise that a Starfleet evaluation team be sent to Fimdari to search for signs of Dominion or Siinogan scouting in preparation of an invasion, including looking into the activities of any Occans on the planet as refugees.

Captain Renauld specifically mentioned that he and his fellow police were being trained to spot Betazoids, the implications of this are left to your minds to determine.

In conclusion, based on my experience in planetary operations and special operations missions it is my recommendation that Star Fleet Command begin immediate plans for the active deterranc

After receiving our orders, I led a small team consisting of DTI Agent Duncan, Lieutenant JG Golden, and Ensign Zian to the capital of the planet Occa, New Florida, via the artifact to engage in a fact-finding mission. I didn't inform my team of the more specific assignment I received, which was to locate a restauranteer by the name of Grix. Once we arrived in New Florida, Agent Duncan located the restaurant for me, and led us to it. After we arrived, I unsuccessfully tried to make contact with the owner. Apparently, I'm not as sneaky as I thought I was. After being directed to leave the establishment, I ordered Zian to telepathically contact Grix and tell him that some friends were there to see him. That cleared up, he invited us to return via the back entrance in a half-an-hour, once everything was closed up. Once we returned, we spoke with Grix and his bartender, Sam, and learned that they were born sympathetic to us and anti-Dominion. Through them, we were introduced to a local police officer named Renauld, who felt the same way. Renauld provided us with most of our information, including the fact that most Occans have no clue that their government is in league with the Dominion, and the fact that there are cloning facilities on the planet a mysterious factory outside the city that's being run by the Siinogan. He didn't know anything else about the factory, but I suspect it has something to do with ketracel white. While we talked, Grix and Renauld made it known that they didn't hand out information for free, asking that we start an underground railroad to transport several Occans off of Occa. I agreed to this deal. Grix has allowed us to use the basement in his establishment for transporting people. Once everything was settled, we transported home.

Operations has posted the following officers for promotion for the post of Assistant Operations Officer: Ensign Tahlandi. Ensign Delacroix.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Until further information can be gained on general Teirian physiology, no Teirian is to be administered any benzodiazepine if they are brought to the infirmary. Due to the negative affect on Dr. Lhoral, we must assume that all Teirians will react likewise and take precautions against that. Alternative sedatives and hypnotics are to be administered only in the greatest instances of need and with extreme caution.

This evening, a medical emergency in the Infirmary necessitated lowering the containment field around our patient. However, there was a lapse before a second containment field was erected around the Infirmary, allowing some contaminated air to pass beyond the Infirmary's doors. At that time, I placed the Infirmary under quarantine to prevent further contamination, but was later reminded of the lapse between fields. As a result, the station has been placed under quarantine per Starfleet Protocol while Medical Personnel examine the station for signs of contamination with the contagion affecting the Infirmary's patient. As a result, no one may dock at the station, and no one currently present may leave. I am hopeful that this will be fully resolved within forty-eight hours, and offer my apologies to those inconvenienced by this quarantine. I offer assurances that no one currently on the station should be affected by the contagion, but I cannot offer the same assurances for anyone else who may come in contact with the current residents of the station. Do not panic. Everyone currently on board is entirely safe. But, I wish to assure the safety of any potential new arrivals and visitors before lowering the quarantine. Again, this matter should be resolved within forty-eight hours, and I apologize for any inconveniences caused in the meantime. Questions and concerned may be addressed to me.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To all medical personnel: In an effort to end the quarantine on the station as soon as possible, all medical personnel are to begin immediately scanning the station from top to bottom to identify any potential locations of the toxin that recently took the lives of several Rynkans. Information regarding the toxin and the scans showing the most recent mutations have been uploaded to everyone's PADD. The scanning is to be done in shifts with small groups assigned to each location on the station. Residents should be scanned as well as places in case anyone is carrying the toxin even if they are not affected by it. In the meantime, because the quarantine has grown to encompass the entire station, the quarantine on the infirmary itself has been lifted, allowing those currently within it to depart and assist in these scans. Should any toxin be discovered, I am to be informed immediately, and the area where it is found should be placed behind a level ten containment field. Questions regarding these orders should be directed to me. Thank you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lt. Ghorev, since I feel discussing details regarding the toxin should not be conducted in a format available to all residents on the station, I am creating a separate report to continue this discussion in a more private format. The toxin being sought on the station is indeed the same one we have been researching since the first Rynkans lost their lives to it. However, we have already seen the toxin mutate from what initially was an airborne toxin to one that infected and replicated in the lungs. Although it remained airborne in transmission, that mutation alone made it impossible to treat without destroying the host. Most recently, we have encountered a warped version of this toxin - warped presumably by Mr. Treyvan's immune system - that has been made inert in an unknown fashion. Although this last case cannot be specifically considered a natural mutation, I would ask only the time to further analyze every form of this toxin we have seen and make it available to you in Engineering before using the station's sensors to search for and identify any remaining toxin. All of this information should be available to you within the next few hours. I am anxious to remove the quarantine from the station without risking lives due to carriers we have not yet identified, and would welcome the assistance of Engineering, Sciences, and any other department able to assist in this matter. Thank you.

Unless Dr. Lhoral has further on-station business, please maintain armed escort on her until her departure from the station. If she wishes to have further words with me, please inform me.

Earlier this evening, sensors picked up a Federation shuttlecraft, the USS Darwin, approaching the station from the direction of the Romulan Neutral Zone. We hailed the Darwin and opened a communications channel, but damage to the shuttle caused an inordinate amount of interference, and we were unable to speak with its occupant. Once the shuttle made it into transporter range, we beamed the occupant directly to Ops. It was a Cardassian that asked for asylum and identified himself as Panar Gurdek, a Cardassian civilian and author of 'The Unwavering Truth' and 'Freedom From Tyranny', two works that criticized the Cardassian military and were written during the Detapa Council's rule on Cardassia. He claimed that he fled the Jem'Hadar occupation of Cardassia and met up with the crew of the Darwin in the Badlands. While on their way to rendezvous with another ship, they were ambushed by the Jem'Hadar and spent the next five months in Romulan space, trying to evade destruction. He also claims that the Starfleet officers he was with died along the way. I had the Darwin tractored in and sent an engineering team to look it over, to confirm what they could of his story, and informed him that he would be assigned quarters and put under house arrest pending further investigation.
