<<<<<<<<<<Resume Kootenai Mission “Wonders of the Universe”>>>>>>>>>>

Host CO_Marek says:
::Sitting at the conference table in the Briefing Room::

CEO_Masters says:
::Comes up with mods of the park::

Host CO_Marek says:
All: I would like to hear now all your suggestions for the park theme.

CEO_Masters says:
CO: The only thing I can think of has been done before.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Taps on a PADD waiting the staff to start exposing their ideas::

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: Done before? Like what?

CEO_Masters says:
CO: Snoopy, Disney characters, Warner Brothers characters, etc.

Host CO_Marek says:
::Raises an eyebrow:: CEO: I see...

CMO_Sovok says:
::Sits in the meeting looking around::

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Commander Rr'Vellan?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Blinks and looks up:: CO: Sirrr?

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Do you have any ideas to talk us about?

XO_Spicer says:
::Listens::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Blushes:: CO: Uhhh....not rrreally, Sirrr. ::Shrugs::

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: I see.

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: Doctor Sovok?

XO_Spicer says:
All: How about "Wonders of the Federation" or "Wonders of the Universe"?

Host CO_Marek says:
::Taps on his PADD:: XO: Sounds interesting. I was about to suggest "Exploration of the Universe".

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: Doctor, are you here? ::Raises an eyebrow::

XO_Spicer says:
::Nods:: All: How about "The Peoples of the Federation". It would be a way for peoples to better understand other members of the Federation and for those thinking of joining a snapshot of what we stand for.

CEO_Masters says:
XO: That sounds cool, Sir.

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: I like that. It resumes our first objective with the park construction, the cultural exchange.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Looks around the room:: All: Sorry all.

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: What do you think about this?  Do you have any suggestions of your own?

CMO_Sovok says:
CO: I've been kind of sidetracked by some recent events... but I was thinking something along the lines of what you were thinking about, Sir. I mean, that is the entire purpose of the Federation.

XO_Spicer says:
CO: You need to make a unilateral decision, Captain. Pick a theme and then we will go with it.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Winces as the baby kicks::

CEO_Masters says:
CO/XO: Sirs!  I just got a brainstorm!

Host CO_Marek says:
::Taps on his PADD:: All: Okay, let's make our decision. ::Glances at all::  CEO: Yes, Lieutenant?

CEO_Masters says:
CO/XO: We can have a theme of the histories of the peoples of the Federation as well as the Klingon Empire.  We'd have Targs next to the llamas in the petting zoo.  And just think of all the food vendors we'd have available!

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: From that point of view, sounds like a solid idea.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: I see. Well, how about this? Since all the ideas are really interesting, why not just make the park to have several areas, each one with a different theme?

CMO_Sovok says:
::Looks around the room, his eyes landing on Bao, slightly listening to the Captain::

CEO_Masters says:
CO: I can see where you're going with that, Sir.  Like one area on Earth, one on Vulcan, one on Qo'Nos, and so on.

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: Exactly, Lieutenant.  Do all agree with this?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Perks her ears and looks over at Sovok::

CEO_Masters says:
CO: And I just thought of a name for that... All: Behold, "Worlds of Wonder!"

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: One step at time, Lieutenant.

XO_Spicer says:
CEO: I like it. ::Grins::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Raises an eyebrow:: CEO: Sounds good.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: Let's see. We have an idea for the themes. Now, we all agree on Masters suggestions for the name?

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Nods:: CO: Fine with me.

XO_Spicer says:
All: The name of the park could be Wonders of the Universe and a subsection could be called Worlds of Wonder. The Worlds of Wonder would be the different planets and their cultures. Another subsection of Wonders of the Universe would be Starfleet: Tactical to Practical. This section would have the inventions of the Federation and how they help.....

XO_Spicer says:
All: in everyday life.

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Nice idea. Okay.  Then "Wonders of the Universe" it shall be. ::Taps on his PADD:: Now continuing with the next topic, let's proceed with the final revision of the CEO's plans in order to submit them to the designers.

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: Did you add the last suggestions to your original plans?

CEO_Masters says:
CO: Yes, Sir.  I've quintupled the volume of the project because of it.

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: Quintupled it?  Well, that would be a headache for the designers. Let's them deal with it anyway.

CEO_Masters says:
All: The revised plans will incorporate a space of 100,000 cubic meters.

CEO_Masters says:
CO: I've incorporated prefabricated and on-site constructed elements into the plans.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Smiles at the CTO, continuing to listen to the ongoing conversation::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Feels a kick::

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: I see.

CEO_Masters says:
CO: On second look, even though I still think it could take a year to complete, it could take less if things go well.

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: Please see to send your final plans to my desktop terminal and I will submit them to the Federation design team.

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: That leads us to our next topic. The construction agenda. ::Raises an eyebrow:: A year is your estimation then?

CEO_Masters says:
CO: That's the maximum estimation, Sir.  Best-case scenario is six months.

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: We are not in a hurry. So, I think a year is a good estimation for the construction phase.

CEO_Masters says:
CO: Well, Sir, if we get ahead of schedule, we'll stay ahead.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: Very well.  Next topic, Personnel Rotation and supervision of the project.  ::Taps on his PADD::

CEO_Masters says:
CO: Since construction is in my department, I should be the one to supervise the project.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Leans back in his chair, wishing he had something to contribute to the conversation::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Glances over at Sovok::

Host CO_Marek says:
CEO: My idea was to rotate the supervision among the senior staff, for example, every two months.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods slightly to the CTO and smiles::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Catches the glances between the CTO and the CMO and coughs, trying to make them pay attention to the conversation::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Blinks and looks up at the CO::

XO_Spicer says:
CO: Sir, I thought that I would be the Project Manager for the park. I would assign tasks to each of the other senior officers who will in turn assign tasks to their departments.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Glances slowly over to the CO::

Host CO_Marek says:
XO: Very well, you will do that.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: Therefore, Lieutenant Masters, you will primary be responsible for the construction.

CEO_Masters says:
CO: Yes, Sir.

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Commander Rr'Vellan, as our tactical officer, you will handle the security issues.

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Nods:: CO: Yes Sirrr.

Host CO_Marek says:
CMO: Doctor Sovok, will supervise the medical concerning, as well as the safety issues.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods in agreement::

Host CO_Marek says:
All: And so we move to our final topic in our agenda. The vendor leases.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: I will take care of all aspects concerning the vendors leases and business concessions.  Commander Spicer has recently put some advertising about this.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: In order to avoid any conflict with the actual vendors in the Promenade, I will give them preference during the negotiations.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods::

Host CO_Marek says:
::Taps on his PADD::

Host CO_Marek says:
All: Any last minute suggestions?

CMO_Sovok says:
::Shakes his head:: CO: I'm sure some will come to me the moment I leave though. ::Grins::

Host CO_Marek says:
All: Very well, the "Wonders of the Universe" project has officially began.

Host CO_Marek says:
All: ::Taps on his PADD:: Gentlemen, you are all dismissed.

CEO_Masters says:
CO: Well, Sir, if you'd excuse me, I have construction workers to hire.

CMO_Sovok says:
::Nods and stands up, smiling around the room and making his way towards the door::

CTO_Rr`Vellan says:
::Looks around and stands up, walking toward the CO:: CO: Captain, if you have a minute?

Host CO_Marek says:
CTO: Yes, Commander?

CEO_Masters says:
::Exits briefing room::
