Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Welcome Tim and Arlene!

Arlene says:
Hey Sheri!!!

Arlene says:
Hi Tim :-)

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Welcome to Examination Room

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
This first session of Examination Room will be starting in about 20 minutes.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Please feel free to help yourself to the donuts and coffee in the corner.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Points to the corner where and urn of coffee, hot water and donuts and pasteries are. ::

Arlene says:
:: Runs and grabs the coffee and toothpicks to open her eyes. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LoL

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Looks over and sees bagels and cream cheese... ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:)   My favs

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
…And orange juice...tomato juice...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
…Pineapple juice...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
…Cranberry juice...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
…They went all out this morning!  :)

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Please help yourself to the refreshments...coffee, pastries, bagels, juices, hot water...

Tim says:
Ok, I will :-)

Tim says:
Well, my character is not quite a MO/CMO, but who cares? :-)

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
You could pick up some things in case it's needed on an Away Mission?

Arlene says:
Hehehe it’s good to check it out anyway.

Tim says:
Yeah, thought so too.

Tim says:
You happen to know when the OPS sessions are?

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I can check for you after this session, Tim

Tim says:
And please, not like 10 pm.

Arlene says:
I think there are some later on today.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
We will be starting here shortly.  Please make yourselves comfortable.

Arlene says:
:: Wonders which character she should use. ::

Tim says:
I already did... :-)

Tim says:
Gonna be away from keyboard for a few minutes

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Sits in a comfortable chair in the middle of the room, and adjusts her mic. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Sips her coffee. ::

Arlene is now known as ADM Xavier.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Sits comfortable in the back sipping coffee getting ready to listen. ::

Trelan (Trelan@actdnet-56479.chcgil2.dsl-verizon.net) has joined the conversation.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   Admiral

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:)  Cmdr Trelan

Trelan says:
:-) Morning Captain.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Smiles. ::  Captain,  Good morning Cmdr.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Please make yourself comfortable.  There are coffee and goodies at the back table

Trelan says:
:: Stiffens slightly. ::   Good morning, Admiral.

Trelan is now known as Cmdr Trelan.

ADM Xavier says:
At ease Cmdr.  I'm just a fly on the wall.   :: Smiles. ::

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: grins as he relaxes :: Aye, sir.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
We'll be starting in a few minutes.  Please excuse me while I get another cup of coffee...and maybe another bagel

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:)

Capt. Xenobia Royce is away: looking for...?  Hum, I'll know when I find it

Tim (schols_tim@actdnet-8729.landg1.lb.nl.home.com) has left the conversation.

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Moves to the rear of the room. ::   Something to drink, sir?

Capt. Xenobia Royce has returned.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Holds out her cup full of coffee. ::  I'm good Cmdr, but thank you.  :: Stands. ::  I'm Rachel Xavier out of SB 917.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles as she returns to her chair in the center of the room and re-adjusts her mic. ::

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Extends hand. ::   Cmdr Trelan Drukkar, Chief Science Officer and Second Officer of the Vesuvius.  Pleasure to meet you.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Smiles. ::   Ahhh the Vesuvius, I've heard good things about her.

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Smiles. ::   We try.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles as she listens to the conversation.  ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Well...

Cmdr Trelan says:
Hmm...You would think this wouldn't be too early for medical officers to crawl out of bed.   :: Snickers. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Since there aren't a lot of participants this morning...   :: Looks at her PADDS then puts them away... ::   I guess we can just chat unless you'd rather listen to my presentation.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Giggles. ::   It's never too early for medical personnel, Cmdr.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles. ::

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Grins. ::   With all due respect, Captain...I've heard this presentation. Now, if the Admiral would like to hear it, I would gladly listen to it again.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Grins. ::   I'm sure you have, in a sense Cmdr.

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Winks at his CO and... ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles and blushes a bit. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Well...

ADM Xavier says:
:: Grins. ::   That is why I'm here Cmdr.  I've heard much about this presentation.  Being a geneticist I'm very interested even though it may not have anything to do with my field.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Perhaps for the sake of the seminar...I'll quickly go through it.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   As you wish Admiral.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Then we shall begin...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I'd like to thank everyone for attending this session of Examination Room.  I am Captain Xenobia Royce, Commanding Officer of the Galaxy-class starship USS Vesuvius, NCC-71985 and your host for this session.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I know this was listed as a Q & A Session, however, as I was preparing for this, I ended up taking this in another direction.  I will talk about your field medical kit and what it should contain; the equipment and medicines and what each one does.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Please hold all questions until we reach the Q & A portion of this session, which shouldn't take too long.   :: Smiles. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
For those of you who are curious, the Vesuvius meets on Tuesday evenings in ACTDShipMissions at 2100 hrs EST (9pm), 2000 hrs CST (8pm), 1900 hrs MST (7pm), and 1800 hrs PST (6pm).  All are welcomed to come and watch the fun!

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Now that I got my little plug in for my ship let me give you a little bit of my background then we can get down to business.   :: Smiles again. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I am a Beta Trill and have the characteristic spotting of my species.  Beta Trills are heartier than Alpha Trills, who by the way have the nose ridges, and as such Beta Trills are able to use the Transporter as opposed to being shuttled from place to place.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I am host to the 800 year old Royce symbiont and am Royce's tenth host.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I graduated from Starfleet Medical Academy at the top of my class even though I was gone for approximately six weeks to return to Trill to receive the Royce symbiont.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
When I graduated I was promoted to Ensign and immediately assigned to the Vesuvius as her Medical Officer.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
After working hard I was promoted to lieutenant, junior grade and eventually become a full lieutenant and promoted to the position of Chief Medical Officer where I stayed until I was promoted to Commander and reassigned as the Acting Commander for the Vesuvius.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
A short time later, Starfleet promoted me to Commanding Officer and reassigned me to the Captain's chair onboard the Vesuvius where I have remained for nearly two years.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I have received commendation for dedication to service in saving Captain Navaren Alar's life; have been decorated with the Axanar Humanitarian Medal for actions at Aquaria Colony and have received the Star Cross for heroism and distinguished service in military operations against an armed enemy with cluster for bravery under fire.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Now, what are some of the essentials for a Doctor?

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Well, one of the most important things a Doctor should have at all times is the medical tricorder.  You don't necessarily need to have a med kit with you at all times since most times you will be in sickbay…unless you are part of an Away Team mission.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Settles back and listens intently. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Now…what should your med kit have for an Away Team mission?

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
A Full Standard kit would include:
	1 - Anabolic Protoplaster
	1 - Bandage assortment
	1 - Cardio Stimulator
	2 - Hyposprays
	1 - Medical Tricorder
	1 - Neural Stimulator
	1 - Respirator
	1 - Sampling kit

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
…and the following medications:
	5 - Vials of Delactovine
	5 - Vials of Tricordrazine
	3 - Vials of Analgine
	4 - Vials of Hyronalyn
	3 - Vials of Panamyacin

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
All doses of any drug type are contained in vials that must be inserted into the Hypospray.  The standard kit may be altered to suit various types of mission or situations.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Also, you don't have to carry all this equipment.  That too would be mission specific.  But it never hurts to be prepared!   :: Smiles at the assembly. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
For example:  If you know you are going into a combat zone or situation, you can replace the 3 vials of Panamyacin with more Hyronalyn or Analgine, depending upon the situation.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Medical Equipment:
Anabolic Protoplaster:  This device is used to heal internal and external damage without the need of opening the body cavity of the patient to effect repairs.  They use small forcefields, phase-modulated lasers, and anabolic accelerators to quickly heal injuries without scarring.  They come in a variety of sizes for different

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Repairs.

Trish (Trish@host.acalltoduty.com) has joined the conversation.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Bandage assortment:  Self explanatory.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Cardio Stimulator:  This device is a defibrillator that can also restart a stopped heart.  Unlike current defibrillators, this device will not damage surface tissues.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Hyposprays:  This is a hand-held device that is used for subcutaneous and intravenous administration of carefully-controlled dosages of medication on a subject.  The Hypospray injects the subject by use of a pinpoint, high-pressure, low-volume, microscopic aerosuspension stream.  It allows medication to be given through the skin or clothing without

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Mechanical penetration.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
It takes one second to remove and one second to replace the medicine vial.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
The air cartridge is good for 100 injections.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
It takes one second to remove and one second to replace the air cartridge.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Total weight is approximately ½ lbs.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Medical Tricorder:  The Medical Tricorder is a modified TR-580 with an extra external medical probe and scanner attachment.  It has the following capabilities:

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
		Biosampler
		Bioscanner
		Chemscanner
		Datalink
		Environmental Analysis
		Medscanner
		Multiscanner
		Radscanner

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
For its size, the Medical Tricorder can maintain and store vast amounts of data in its own memory, which it uses to help evaluate conditions on site.  We will not go into detail with each of the functions listed above at this time.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
The Medical Tricorder has an external hand-held device.  This peripheral contains over 100 sensors, and the Tricorder contains a specialized medical database that provides detailed medical diagnostic tools in the field including tomographic and micrographic imaging.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Tomographic imaging is a method of producing a three-dimensional image of the internal structures of a solid object (as the human body or the earth) by the observation and recording of the differences in the effects on the passage of waves of energy impinging on those structures -- compare COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY

Trish is now known as ADM-Alexander.

ADM-Alexander is now known as ADM Alexander.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY  is radiography in which a three-dimensional image of a body structure is constructed by computer from a series of plane cross-sectional images made along an axis -- called also computed axial tomography, computerized axial tomography, and

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Computerized tomography.

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Sits back, sipping coffee. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Micrographic imagingBottom of Form can encompass the following:
	 1. microsporogenesis 
	 2. microreproductions
	 3. microcalorimeters 
	 4. microsporog

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
	5. microreproduction
	 6. neoconservatisms
	 7. neo-scholasticisms

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
These are detailed within themselves, and we will not get into all this at this time.   :: Smiles around the room. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
The external hand-held device is a small diagnosis wand which fits into the top of the peripheral and is occasionally used by the physician to provide close high-resolution scans.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Smiles and nods back. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Together, these sensors allow the Medical Tricorder to make very detailed diagnosis on known species.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
On unknown species, it is limited to telling if the lifeform is sick or dying.  In this situation, detailed analysis is not possible.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Effective range is about three (3) yards.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Takes a sip of coffee. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Neural Stimulator:  This device, in a sense, jumpstarts the Central Nervous System of patients who have suffered some form of neuro-synaptic failure.  This is particularly useful to treat a patient who has suffered CNS shock from the higher settings of a Phaser.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
In general, this is also the device of choice in attempts to revive unconscious and or comatose patients.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Respirator:  Self-explanatory.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Sampling Kit:  Contains empty vials for samples which require more
in-depth diagnosis where transportation is often required.  Tweezers or prongs are a part of the kit so the sample can be taken and placed in the container, minimizing contamination of the sample.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Medication Definitions:
Delactovine:  This is a common stimulant with few side affects.  It is mildly addictive.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Tricordrazine:  This medication is a refined version of Cordrazine which lacks the delusional paranoia side effects, but will not revive as well as Cordrazine.  This is also an addictive drug, so you want to be careful in its application.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
* Cordrazine is a powerful stimulant that will usually revive a stunned or unconscious patient completely.  Cordrazine is really tricky stuff as an overdose can lead to delusional paranoia.  This drug is highly addictive.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Analgine:  This medication provides insensibility to pain without loss of consciousness.  Bottom line:  Pain killer…and very effective.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Analgine:  This medication provides insensibility to pain without loss of consciousness.  Bottom line:  Pain killer…and very effective.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Each dosage beyond the first risks Hyronalyn poisoning, which could lead to permanent damage.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Panamyacin:  An antibiotic.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
And as a physician, do not ever forget the Hippocratic Oath.  A quick overview of the Hippocratic Oath requires physicians to do no harm, to use their best efforts to care for their patients, and to protect the confidentiality of patient information.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
The Hippocratic Oath was named for the ancient Earth Greek physician Hippocrates.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
This can pose a problem if you climb the ladder to Command.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Looks around the room. ::   I've given you all a lot of information.  Now, at this time, are there any questions?   :: Takes another sip of coffee. ::

ADM Alexander says:
This is an excellent presentation Captain, and I intend to send a copy to my CMO and other personnel

ADM Xavier says:
:: Smiles. ::   Very well done Capt.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles. ::   Thank you ADM Alexander

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Nods to Captain Royce. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Thank You ADM Xavier

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles to Cmdr Trelan. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Well then...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
If there are no questions...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Thank you for joining this session of Examination Room.  Please send any comments, thoughts or even suggestions as to how I could improve on this seminar to:  rns@prodigy.net.  Your comments and thoughts are most welcomed.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Thinking. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Thank you again.  Please join #MainHall to meet other fellow ACTD members.

JP (JP@actdnet-14841.nt.net) has joined the conversation.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Please enjoy the refreshments at the back of the room.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I will be available for any questions.

ADM Alexander says:
:: Looks for the juice. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Welcome JP

JP says:
ooooooo

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:)

JP says:
There are refreshments?

JP says:
I need refreshments.  I just woke up   :: Grins. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Gets up and removes the mic and heads for more coffee. ::

ADM Alexander says:
Me too JP

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:)

JP says:
Is this an in character thing btw?

ADM Alexander says:
Yes

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Yes

ADM Xavier says:
:: Stands up to get more coffee.  Heads for the refreshment table. ::

JP says:
I better change then

JP says:
No peeking

ADM Alexander says:
Yup

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Giggles. ::

JP is now known as LtCmdr Jappic.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Not like any doctor hasn't seen it before!   :)

LtCmdr Jappic says:
True, true

ADM Alexander says:
:: Snickers. ::

LtCmdr Jappic says:
I used to be a CMO a long time ago

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   On which ship?

LtCmdr Jappic says:
On the U.S.S. Andromeda

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::

ADM Alexander says:
Will you be presenting this again Captain?

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Yes.  Tomorrow morning...same time...same channel.  :)

Cmdr Trelan says:
Captain, I have one question. How does the medical tricorder differentiate from the standard tricorder when it comes to reading direction and status of an alien lifeform when in the field?

ADM Xavier says:
:: Walks up to the Capt. ::   Captain, excellent presentation. I'm very impressed.  I have to admit I didn't get to go on many away teams...my uhmm extra curricular activities prevented that.  How much do you know about combat medicine?

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Looks to ADM. ::   My apologies, Admiral…After you.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Cmdr Trelan:  It's in the mechanics of the tricorder, Cmdr.  If the species is in the data base it contains, then, it's a simple matter at that point.

ADM Xavier says:
Oh no...You asked first.  :: Smiles. ::

ADM Alexander says:
:: Watches the protocol. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
If not...then it registers an unknown life form as it differs from your readings or mine.

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Nods. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  I've seen some combat situations.  What exactly are you asking?

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Takes a sip of her coffee and a small bite from her bagel. ::

ADM Xavier says:
Capt:  Well I did some undercover work for the SFC.  I inserted myself into the Maquis.  Necessity prevented us using the typical med kit.  I guess you could call it meatball surgery.

ADM Xavier says:
I'm wondering how you would present something like that.  You are not going to have a med kit with you all the time.  The Dominion War proved that.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   You do the best you can with what you have on hand.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
For example...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
…Alcohol makes a good antiseptic

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
…As well as a good pain reliever in some cases...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles. ::

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Remembers improvising many times during the Occupation. ::

ADM Xavier says:
:: Smiles. ::   I remember many a Klingon crying when we used some blood wine for exactly that purpose.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Cmdr:  You are Bajoran?

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Laughs openly... ::   I can understand that.

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Smiles as he reaches for the ornamental earring. ::   LtCmdr: Yes.

ADM Tracer (~tech13@host.acalltoduty.com) has joined the conversation.

ADM Xavier says:
It’s amazing though, no matter how advance we become.  The old ways always seem to creep back in.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  All I could recommend is that the Medic do the best in whatever situation they are in.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
:: Grins a little. ::   Cmdr:  I am Cardassian.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
They have to keep their heads...look around to see what can be used.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
...And go from there.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   ADM Xavier:  There are many uses for the "old" ways and treatments.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Nods. ::   Something to be said for it too.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  It's especially useful for the medic with an herbal background

Cmdr Trelan says:
LtCmdr: I see that. But, I have learned to put the past...in the past. If Starfleet is to stay diversified, we will not accomplish anything by bigotry or..."Grudge holding".

ADM Xavier says:
Capt:  Very much so.  I believe it’s a prerequisite in Starfleet Medical.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   ADM Xavier:  It's been a while since I attended Starfleet Medical.  I learned much of my herbs from my 1st host

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles and blushes a bit... ::   ADM Xavier:  I guess you could call it an advantage for me.

ADM Xavier says:
Capt: Have all your hosts had a medical background?

ADM Xavier says:
Capt: You use what you have.  It’s called survival.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  No...Osan, my 1st host was a healer and used plants and herbs

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Cmdr:  I didn't dislike the Bajoran people during the Occupation although three of my friends were killed.  I was just working for my people.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  Tobus, my 6th host was a physician/surgeon

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  Danika, my 9th host was a biogeneticist

ADM Xavier says:
:: Smiles at that. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  Genari, my 4th host was a historian/cultural anthropologist

ADM Xavier says:
Capt:  Capt sounds like your 9th host and my self could have quite the conversation.  Biogenetics was my field during my earlier time in Starfleet.

Cmdr Trelan says:
LtCmdr: And I was fighting for the freedom of mine.   :: Looks to the floor, then back to Jappic. ::   There were many Cardassians who helped the Bajoran people. But many others who were not so kind.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   ADM Xavier:  Could be.  I find my past lives to be invaluable at times.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier: At other times, the voices can be quite over whelming.
:: Smiles. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  Especially when all want to be heard.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
:: Almost laughs. ::   Cmdr:  But those times are long gone.  My people will change, especially since the Bajoran Government has been helping Cardassia rebuild after the war.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Moves for more coffee, and pours her self another cup.  ::   ADM Xavier?    :: Holds the pot for the Admiral. ::

ADM Xavier says:
Capt:  I believe it.  When my team inserted itself into the Maquis we had this quiet little Trill, not your typical Trill.  I was concerned because we had to be aggressive to survive, but boy when the chips were down this little girl was something to be reckoned with.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Holds out her cup. ::   Thank you Capt.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles and nods. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Pours the coffee, replaces the pot. ::

ADM Xavier says:
It seemed her previous host was a tactical officer and then a Capt.  Could this girl plan an assault…Even though she was a new host and studied art in university.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Takes a sip. ::   Thank you Capt.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  Frankly, Admiral...I was the same way when I was CMO on the Vesuvius.

ADM Alexander (Trish@host.acalltoduty.com) has left the conversation.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles. ::   ADM Xavier:  The previous lives do have a way with coming to the forefront.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Smiles. ::   Do you find that difficult to handle?

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Smiling. ::   LtCmdr: Yes. Long gone.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  The voices?

Adm_Tracer (~tech13@host.acalltoduty.com) has left the conversation.

ADM Xavier says:
Capt:  Yes or trying to keep the balance between host and symbiont.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
:: Turns to the Captain for a moment. ::   Captain Royce:  Can you comment on Doctor Julian Bashir's actions on Stardate 49066.5 when he and another officer were captured by the Dominion, and Bashir was actually helping the enemy.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  When I became a candidate I was eligible to undergo specialize studies...training if you will...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Pauses a moment... ::   ADM Xavier:  Excuse me a moment, Admiral.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Nods. ::

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Moves around Jappic and stands next to Royce. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  It is my belief that it was done so that he may find a way in which to assist the Federation from the inside.  It may not have looked like it as first, but...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Frankly, I have not had the pleasure of studying the documentation on his actions.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  Nonetheless, he was in collaboration with the enemy.  He was trying to save them.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
Since becoming Captain, my duties have more than doubled, and I barely find time to read medical updates

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Looks over to Jappic. ::   LtCmdr: You, as a medical officer, should understand that a Doctor's first duty is to heal.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
I see...well the Hippocratic Oath any doctor takes comes into play here

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
It's not the way for a doctor to take life...

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
We try to preserve it.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt, Cmdr:  No offense, but I would violate that oath before saving any Jem'Hadar.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
No matter who or what the situation or circumstances.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Listens carefully. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  None is taken.  We all do things differently

Cmdr Trelan says:
And would you have thought the same if Bajoran doctors and medics had allowed Cardassians to die?

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Cmdr:  Bajoran doctors did not kill eight hundred billion of my people.

ADM Xavier says:
Jappic:  Cmdr, do your people think you are collaborating with the enemy now, even though we are suppose to be friends?

LtCmdr Jappic says:
ADM:  The only reason I am a Starfleet Officer now is because I was exiled by the Dominion when Cardassia joined them.  My people don't thoroughly enjoy that I work for Starfleet, but I have family here and we respect family.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
ADM:  I am half human which is why I was exiled.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles. ::

ADM Xavier says:
:: Nods. ::   Jappic:  But some of the hardliners within your government may not see it that way.  They do not have all the facts.  Which is the same with Dr Bashier.  If Starfleet Command truly believed her compromised SF, he would have been tried for treason.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
ADM:  True.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Under her breath but audible. ::   As would have I.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
:: Takes out a picture of his baby girl. ::   Capt:  Here's a picture of my child, Kalinda.  She was born in February.   :: Shows the picture. ::

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Looks to the Admiral. ::   Admiral?

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles as she looks at the picture. ::   A beautiful child, LtCmdr!

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  She has brought light into my life.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Looks at Trelan. ::   Some people still don't believe I was undercover... There is a group that still believe I should be tried for treason.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   LtCmdr:  As should all children, Cmdr.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  Life is very precious.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  In my eyes...that means all life

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  Nova, my wife, and I were having much difficulty with the gene compatibility.

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Nods. ::  ADM: And the Maquis has stained my people as well.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  I might have done the same thing in Bashir's place...I may not have.  Who's to say?

Cmdr Trelan says:
ADM: They are bitter....

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  Well...it looks as if you and your wife overcame that.  She is a very beautiful child.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  Who knows, I may have as well.  I'm just not very fond of the Jem'Hadar, especially after what they did to Cardassia.

Cmdr Trelan says:
ADM: Makes you wonder about the "civilized society", doesn't it?

ADM Xavier says:
Cmdr Trelan:  They have stained a lot of people.  Cause was good but their methods....   :: Shakes her head thinking back. ::  It will take generations for the bitterness to go away.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  I do not know of many people who are fond of the Jem'Hadar, Cmdr.

ADM Xavier says:
Trelan:  When you get people with free thinking, you will always have dissention.  Nobody thinks the same.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  Thank you.  It was Doctor Rushing, our Station's CMO and Second Officer, that found the correct injection to have my wife pregnant.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   LtCmdr:  That is wonderful!  I hope she wrote a paper about it!  This would be great news for all in a similar situation.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Wonders about Trill and Bajoran compatibility... ::

Cmdr Trelan says:
ADM: Agreed. But with free thinking comes responsibility for one's actions. Taking the repercussions of what you do. And they do not. They feel their way is right, and Starfleet is wrong.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Makes a note in her head to have it checked out. ::

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  Would you like me to request a paper about the subject from her?

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  You may want to ask her about it.  If she hasn't submitted a report on her findings to some medical journal, she may wish to think about it.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  It was especially difficult because Nova is 1/2 Human, 1/4 Romulan and 1/4 Klingon…and to add to that, I am 1/2 Cardassian and 1/2 Human.

ADM Xavier says:
:: Nods. ::   That they did.  The repercussions of their actions was they were criminals according to Starfleet.  Something that they gladly took on.  Maybe the repercussion is they can't or couldn't rejoin their families especially the ones on earth.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods and smiles. ::   LtCmdr:  I would think the geno for Klingon and Cardassian would be very close.  I can see where the difficulty would lie with the Romulan/Human/Cardassian genos

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Looks at her chronometer... ::    All:  Thank you all again for joining this session of Examination Room.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  In the final outcome, Kalinda is showing the signs of Cardassian and Romulan appearance.  She has my wife's ears and well my neck and bone ridges.  :: Smiles. ::  I wouldn't want her any other way.  She's perfect.

Cmdr Trelan says:
ADM: Maybe...one day...but I have learned from our travels that bigotry of all kinds will always be present, no matter how advanced we become.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Nods. ::   LtCmdr:  I hope to see her in Starfleet one day, Cmdr.  I'm sure she will have a very unique insight.

Tim (schols_tim@actdnet-8729.landg1.lb.nl.home.com) has joined the conversation.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
All: Please feel free to linger here or make your way to the Main Hall to meet other officers

ADM Xavier says:
Cmdr:  Unfortunately that is too true.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
All:  Thank you again for attending this session.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Smiles at the attendees... ::   Especially this early in the morning.

LtCmdr Jappic says:
Capt:  That she will.  I was thinking of bringing her and my wife to an archaeological site that was recently found.   It is a Cardassian Ancient Hebitian Temple near the Cardassian border.  And the wonder of it is that the Ancient Hebitians weren't capable of leaving Cardassia Prime.  I was going to bring one of my fellow crewmembers Demakh, but he

LtCmdr Jappic says:
... doesn't seem too interested.

ADM Xavier says:
All:  Duty calls and I must leave.  It was nice meeting you all.  :: Smiles. ::   I enjoyed your presentation very much Capt.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
ADM Xavier:  Thank you Admiral.

Cmdr Trelan says:
It was an honor to meet you, sir. :: Extends hand. ::

ADM Xavier says:
:: Nods and smiles at Cmdr Trelan and Jappic.  Extends her hand and shakes Trelan's hand. ::

LtCmdr Jappic says:
ADM/Capt:  Yes, this talk has been enlightening.

ADM Xavier says:
Cmdr:  I hope we meet again.   :: With a wave she exits the conference room. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  I hope to see you again, Cmdr.    :: Looks over and smiles at Cmdr Trelan. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  I hope to have brought some bits of enlightenment to those who attended.

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
LtCmdr:  It's been a pleasure.

Cmdr Trelan says:
:: Moves next to Xen. ::

Host Capt. Xenobia Royce says:
:: Looks to Cmdr Trelan.  ::   Would you care to escort me back to the ship, Cmdr?
