Scene; Captain's Office,  Edeck
SD: 2260.155
MD: -14.1300
                Steele looked up from the view screen as a Denobulan in a
blue tunic entered his office.
"Lieutenant ARr'Rhiana Hemux reporting for assignment sir."  She said
crisply.
Jack reached up and accepted the red data disc.  "Thank you lieutenant. 
PLease have a seat."  Steele inserted the disc into the slot and watched
as Hemux's data came up on the monitor.  He gave the information a quick
scan before looking up at the smiling science officer.  He'd met a few
Denobulan's in his career but never actually served with one.  He smiled
at the thought it would be interesting to get to new a representative of
another race more closely.  It was one of the reasons he had joined
Starfleet.
                The Federation and by extension Starfleet had been
established as a multispecies body.  But Jack and found much to his
disappointment that by and large the different races tended to stay with
there own.  HOOD for example carried a large percentage of humans and he
knew there were ships that were largely Andorian for example.  He knew
that the trend for greater integration was continuing but sometimes it
seemed at too slow a pace.  He gave himself a mental shake and turned his
attention back to his new science officer. 
                "You arrive at a particularly fortuitous time lieutenant." 
Steele said as he pulled the data disc out of the slot and handed back to
Hemux.
                "Excellent captain.  How so?"
                "HOOD  is in a transition of sorts.  I have just recently
been given command and we'll be replacing the majority of her officers. 
Actually you are the first one aboard.  But with that change while there
are a number of advantages but there will be a number of challenges.  I'm
afraid we're all going to be very busy."
                "I look forward to it captain!"  The Denobulan assured.
                "Well I see from your career you will be a strong asset to
the team.  And I imagine you're interested in getting too it.  So I won't
keep you. "  He rose and extended a hand.  "Welcome aboard."

Hi Gang, just quick word about the Stardate (SD) it is created by taking
the RP game year: 2260 and the day of the year we are in.  As June 04 is
the 155th day of the year the SD would be 2260.155.
I've also started a Mission Date (MD) so we can keep track of where we are
in the mission.  Since we haven't actually started a mission and it is 14
ship board days until we do I've set the MD as -14. 
Also, I sent this post about an hour ago...or so I thought I did.  It
seems to have disappeared from my sent folder and not arrived anywhere so
I'm re-sending.  Apolgies if you end up seeing two posts.
Respectfully,
Andy
