The fashion crowd gathered in Sydney last week for the announcement of nominations for this year's fashion awards
But while Australian designers try to grab international attention
Australian models have proven themselves the real achievers of the fashion industry
We took a snapshot of kuma girl, Anneliese Soibert as she storms the fashion barricades in Paris
My name is Anneliese Soibert
I am 23 years old
I'm a model
It's a fantasy business, you know
You can't be in reality every day
People want to dream and that's what this industry is about
I'd love to look like that and wear those clothes
I grew up in Sydney on the northern beaches
And then when I was about 10 we moved to Kuma
I started modelling because a friend of mine entered me into a Dolly Cover Girl contest
So that was when I was 15
They called me up and said you're a finalist
I said but I didn't enter the contest, what are you talking about?
And they said well we have pictures of you here
And I found out later the friend who had entered me in it
I mean I thought I'd give it a try and it was quite fun
It went well in the beginning so here I am now
Hello, how are you?
Yeah I was shy when I first came here
I was 17 and a half so I think it's pretty normal
Not crazy about the colours
Maybe two weeks after she came she started to work for All the Best magazine in Paris
She has something in her eyes, she has something really strong
So right away everybody was really excited to have her here
And this is the picture
It can get very tiring, crazy the whole time
People pulling you and telling you to do this and go here and do that
It makes you just mad
She's extremely beautiful but she also can change drastically from one dress to another
The biggest misconception of all time is that all models are stupid which is not true
You do get judged for your appearance only sometimes
I mean it's not hard to convince somebody that there's a brain in here
It is superficial, it's not the most important business in the world
A lot of people in the fashion business think it is
There are people dying out there of diseases that they haven't found cures for
and thinking that fashion is the most important thing but it's not true

In the news shortly, the painkillers that could prove fatal to asthmatics
Our Olympic heroes head home and all Australians get ready to stand up and be counted
And now to your thoughts on witness
In our last program we brought you the story of South Africa's attempts to have apartheid killers answer for their crimes
Our twins are in a coma, what do I do?
They were all shot in the head and they were bleeding through their heads
It's unbelievable, they were all wounded, all traumatised
These are the stories of state sponsored murder in the old South Africa
So you were assassinated during the week and went to church on Sunday
That's correct
I thought the story on South Africa was very well presented
And the man who was interviewed was a lying hypocritical son of a bitch
He says I'm sorry the same way you would say it's a nice day
I failed to understand how a man who was a self-professed Christian
can kill from Monday to Saturday and worship God on Sunday
I hope he rocks in hell
Well in the time since our story went to air
the confessed killer Dirk Kutseer has been formally arrested for murder and released on bail
And our last program also featured the Australian women's basketball team, the Opals
in their quest for a medal in Atlanta
Robin Ma, Opals team captain, 19 years representing her country
And the driving force behind the most dynamic and successful senior basketball team we've ever produced
Well Ma's left alone here
Yes, a bank shot from Robin Ma
Opals, Opals, Opals
Well just in case you haven't heard the hard work paid off with a bronze medal
A first for Australian basketball
And here comes the Opals onto the floor

Police sift for evidence in the murder of a young backpacker
Australian athletes head home as heroes
And a painkiller warning for asthmatics
Good evening, detectives are tonight combing a forest in New South Wales
Searching for clues that may link convicted murderer Ivan Malat to the death of another young backpacker
On the day Malat lodged an appeal against his conviction
Police sealed off an area in the Janolan State Forest near Oberon
Where the body of an 18 year old was found 8 years ago
The backpacker murder task force has reopened the files on the death of 18 year old Peter Letcher
His body was found by picnickers in the Janolan State Forest in January 1988
He'd suffered head wounds
Mr Letcher disappeared 2 months earlier while travelling from Busby in Sydney's west to Bathurst
The question now, was Mr Letcher one of Ivan Malat's victims?
Officers from the state major incident group and Bathurst police are searching the forest for forensic material
They're looking for evidence which may be similar to the ammunition or other items found in the Belangolo State Forest
Where 7 young hitchhikers were murdered by Malat
The Janolan State Forest will be searched for the next 3 days
Police have sealed off an area and will keep it under guard
And near Dubbo there's been another major development in the backpacker case
Police from task force air have launched a raid on a farmhouse
Searching for the skull of murdered German tourist, Anya Habschied
The remains were not found but a 34 year old man was arrested
He'll face Dubbo court later this month charged with cultivating, supplying and possessing cannabis
Felicity Moffat, 7 Nightly News
A Melbourne woman has been jailed for 10 years for repeatedly driving over her retired twin brother
She had planned to collect her dead brother's $120,000 compensation payout
Now police are moving to stop her inheriting the cash
Judith Sengers was described as a caring, loving sister to her twin Lindsay Jellet
Mentally handicapped as a young child when his pram was hit by a car
But in May 1994 she drove over the 41 year old several times on a lonely dirt road on the outskirts of Ararat
A jury convicted Sengers of attempted murder
She was originally charged with murder but the judge said there wasn't enough evidence
Police said sedatives were found in his body but that evidence was ruled inadmissible
Mr Justice Smith said he couldn't take into account Judith Sengers' remorse because she had none
She's always denied any involvement in the crime
The judge said she was motivated by her brother's money
At least $126,000 held in a trust
The Police Assets Recovery Squad is attempting to prevent the money from falling into Judith Sengers' hands
Judith Sengers will appeal her conviction and the 10 year jail sentence with a 6 year minimum
Kate Davies, 7 Nightly News
There are fresh allegations of corruption inside the Australian Federal Police tonight
Following the government's decision to hold an independent inquiry
Ray Cooper, formerly second in charge of the internal investigation branch
has gone public to back claims of corruption and says he's also prepared to name senior colleagues
Now retired, this former Australian Federal Police officer Ray Cooper is the latest to go public with damning allegations of corruption inside the nation's premier police operation
In my view, seven years ago it wasn't if the inquiry would occur, it was when
He was one second in charge of the AFP's internal investigation division
where he alleges his inquiries into corrupt behaviour were sabotaged
There's very senior police officers, I'm not going to quote what ranks but there are very, very senior police officers involved
Mr Cooper says there are hot spots of corruption
He alleges drugs and money regularly went missing and that the place leaked like a sieve
I'm not going to tell the truth about what I consider to be a cover up from the internal investigation division's aspect some years ago
However, another whistleblower, Alan Tasiak, has revealed he fears for his life and has criticised the federal government for not offering him protection
Well I have been offered no protection whatsoever, I've really put everything on the line to go public
The decision to hold an independent inquiry was based in part on the Tasiak allegations
From the British Airways, Amber, Helen McCabe, Seven Nightly News
And federal police are investigating British Airways staff after 15kg of amphetamines were found on board a flight from London
The drugs were found by a baggage handler in a restricted area
It's one of WA's biggest amphetamine hauls
15kg of the drug, $5 million worth, arrived hidden in a locker in a British Airways jumbo jet on Saturday
The drugs were found in a sports bag stashed in a holding compartment in the tail section of the plane
An area only accessible to flight crew, it had no baggage tags or identification
Our preliminary drug tests indicated that amphetamines were probably involved
And in accordance with our normal practices, we handed the bag over to the Australian Federal Police
Federal Police refuse to give details about the amphetamine haul, they won't even show the drugs to us
They say it's part of an ongoing investigation which is not for public knowledge
British Airways Flight 11 flies to Perth via Singapore every day
It's not known whether the drugs were put there by a crew member
And how many successful drug runs have already been made, nobody knows
The fire and descent shockwaves throughout British Airways, the package could just as easily have been a bomb
The airline will say only that it's investigating

Most of Australia's record-breaking Olympic team flew out of Atlanta today
But not without problems, the city's airport was under siege and struggled to cope with the exodus
A fierce electrical storm swept over Atlanta as the Australian team prepared to leave the Olympic city
They were forced to cool their heels after a lightning strike blacked out the runway lights and closed the airport
It feels quite normal, get quite used to it, I mean we were delayed coming here, we were delayed leaving for Barcelona
It's almost to be expected but I think we're bad luck
It piled chaos on top of chaos at Atlanta Airport as a quarter of a million athletes and spectators left town
After a two hour delay for the Aussies, they were on board their two charter aircraft and dying to get home
It feels great, I'm really excited, been away for about five weeks
How do you feel going home?
Good, no, cannot wait, can't wait, can't wait
I'm pretty much still on a high but I'm sure it'll hit me sooner or later
The Prime Minister will lead a special welcome home for our athletes when they arrive in Sydney tomorrow morning
The great exodus has already left Atlanta looking like a ghost town
At Centennial Olympic Park where hundreds of thousands had congregated each day, the only activity was the pack-up
That in itself is an awesome task, after two million visitors, 10,000 athletes and 15,000 media people
Atlanta was hurting today after the closing ceremony when one Antonio Semaranch admitted to declare them the best games ever
Something he always does at the end of each Olympic
We did it our way and I feel as good about our games as Barcelona did about theirs
And as Seoul did about theirs and as Los Angeles did about theirs
And as Sydney will feel about theirs
Sydney now feels the weight of the world on its shoulders
Our great country proved themselves many, many times to meet all challenges and we can do it again
The advice is now flowing freely from the people who've had the weight of the world lifted from their shoulders
Prepare early, start immediately, what seems like an eternity will turn into 10 days, almost in the blink of an eye
Lee Hatcher, Atlanta, 7NineFee News
And there's widespread controversy tonight over Sydney's first step onto the Olympic stage
With our performance at the closing ceremony in Atlanta, prompting anger and delight
Back home, criticism of the blow-up kangaroos has been dismissed as cultural cringe
And the word from Atlanta is that the rest of the world loved it
Kangaroos, cockatoos and cultural cringe all on show as Sydney stepped onto the world stage
It took just seven minutes for our performers to win high praise from around the world
The ISC members, I was sitting with them during the thing and afterwards they loved it
A lot of Americans have stopped us along the way and said how terrific it was
But back home it sparked a flood of angry calls to talk back radio
But how dare they portray us as a bunch of damn hicks
I've never been so embarrassed
The man behind the performance, Rick Burch, touched the hearts of many with Matilda at Brisbane's Commonwealth Games
But his Atlanta ceremony certainly didn't have the same effect
Tell you what it shouldn't be, that's kangaroos riding cyclists
And it seems cockatoos and kangaroos are out come the year 2000
I think we can aim a bit higher and go further up the food chain when it comes to the symbols
If they're not laughing at it then they've definitely lost their sense of humour
I mean Australia's kangaroo is probably the most instantly recognised image
The controversy over the closing ceremony highlights the dilemma for our Games officials
Just how should we be seen by the rest of the world?
At least there's now four years to find the answer
John Bores, Seven Nightly News
Our Atlanta Olympians will fly home tomorrow morning for a private welcoming at Sydney Airport
Only family members and friends will be allowed to attend the ceremony addressed by Prime Minister Howard
But Channel 7 will be there and we'll cross live during 11am tomorrow morning
Commonly used painkillers could pose a potential deadly threat to asthma sufferers
The National Asthma Campaign says popular aspirin related drugs can induce severe breathing problems
Non-steroidal painkillers are used to treat arthritis, backache, period pain, migraine and sports injuries
Marathon swimmer Susie Moroney knows the meaning of pain
But as an asthmatic she doesn't rely on these particular drugs to relieve it
The cubit of Florida swim, I went through a lot of pain, that was the hardest swim I've ever done
10% of asthmatics are allergic to non-steroidal painkillers
And since many recently became available over the counter, doctors are worried
The reaction can be extremely severe, it can be life threatening
I have certainly had a patient who has had a respiratory arrest, has stopped breathing
Doctors stopped prescribing these painkillers for asthmatics years ago
But new ones are still being developed
The National Asthma Campaign wants prominent warning labels on all non-steroidal painkillers
As well as counselling by a doctor or pharmacist before you buy
The warning applies to many popular drugs including Voltaren, Brufen, Ponstan, Naprogesic and Indicid
As well as Aspro, Codril and Vegeanin

About 30 people have been injured in a grandstand collapse at a country circus in South Australia
Witnesses say there were many children amongst those injured
Four people are being transferred to Wyalla Hospital about 140 kilometres away
An attempt by the New South Wales State Government to win supporters in the country backfired today
A cabinet meeting in Dubbo received some country hostility
We want home! We want home!
The farmers are angry at State Government plans to reduce their water allocation and give more to the nearby Macquarie Marshes
They invaded the hall and disrupted the meeting

European nations are discussing countermeasures against tough new US anti-terrorism legislation
They've accused Washington of jeopardising their foreign trade interests
after President Bill Clinton announced a crackdown on ties with Libya and Iran
President Clinton put the White House spotlight on terrorism
proposing new legislation to fight the threat abroad
and signing into law a bill that will punish international companies that invest in Iran and Libya
Both countries, the US contends, sponsors terrorist activities
America will not rest in our resolve to hunt down, prosecute and punish terrorists
and to put pressure on states that support them
The families of the victims of Pan Am Flight 103 stood alongside Mr. Clinton
They've long pushed for legislation to punish Libya, implicated in the downing
The law will penalise international companies which develop more than $40 million worth of new business with Iran or Libya's oil industries
US allies abroad have considerable investment in the region and are angry
But in a major address on terrorism, Mr. Clinton said he has little choice
You cannot do business with countries that practice commerce with you by day
while funding or protecting the terrorists who kill you and your innocent civilians by night
British anti-abortion activists are offering a mother up to $90,000 to cancel plans to abort a healthy twin
A 28-year-old single woman has horrified pro-life groups with her decision to terminate one of her fetuses
There's been no reaction to the cash offer at Queen Charlotte's Hospital in West London
where the woman is due to have her abortion
The woman already has one child and has said she'd rather have a double abortion than struggle to bring up two more
The operation is due to be carried out by Professor Philip Bennett
who said it was better to terminate one pregnancy than to lose both of them
The British Medical Association said the case did not raise any new ethical issues
In fact, when you start to analyse the case, there's no difference between this
and a termination of pregnancy where there is only one baby being terminated and only a singleton pregnancy
Carol Holmes from Suffolk is a single parent bringing up nine-month-old twin boys
She says it's a struggle financially and emotionally, but is horrified at the idea of selective abortion
I can't understand why anybody would want to even start to think about making a choice
The anti-abortion group Life said it hoped the unnamed woman would think again
We're very worried about the mother's relationship with the surviving child
It's thought there were about a hundred selective terminations of multiple pregnancies
performed at UK hospitals last year, usually because of foetal abnormalities
Hiroshima has marked the 51st anniversary of the world's first atomic bomb blast
More than 50,000 residents of the city and survivors commemorated the exact moment the bomb exploded on August 6, 1945

of those who've died from the after-effects of the blast
140,000 people died in the bombing
In finance news tonight, the Australian share market drifted lower after a drop on Wall Street

Coca-Cola Amatul, which releases its profit results tomorrow, was down 25 cents and News Corp fell 15

Well, Australians from every corner of the country should be doing the same thing tonight
filling out their census forms
And if you don't, you could face fines of up to $100 a day
OK, thanks very much, I'll make sure that he gets it
Not even Prime Minister John Howe will escape filling in his census form
He'll join 18 million other Australians tonight who will take part in the country's most important statistical database
So it's a very accurate picture, we find out where they're living and what they do
and how they are, it's all fitting in with society
That even includes the 700 babies born today
From the inner city to the outback
Even the ocean is no barrier for census collectors
And with 95% of Australians expected to return their forms, privacy doesn't appear to be a stumbling block either
We are very keen to make sure we don't ask questions which are considered by people to be too intrusive
And after a review, the Bureau of Statistics will count gay and lesbian couples in this year's census for the first time
And while Australians were lashed back in 1911 for failing to take part
today there's court action for those who avoid the country's biggest people stock take

The rugby league and western suburbs hooker Cherry Mesher
has been suspended for five weeks by the judiciary
for elbowing Canberra's Laurie Daly
Wests must reach the second round of the playoffs
for Mesher to play again this season
Flanked by coach Tom Ridonikis
Cherry Mesher arrived at the judiciary
ready to plead guilty to the striking charge
on the lesser grounds of it being careless
After viewing the incident from Saturday's West Canberra match
Judiciary Chairman Alan Sullivan QC
said the attempted charge down on Laurie Daly
appeared to him to simply be a cheap shot on the star player
Despite a plea from Ridonikis
Mesher was found guilty of intentionally striking Daly's neck
and despite an unblemished record
suspended him for five weeks
Tommy now has to get his mind around what players are going to play
and what position is on the weekend
That's the decision he'll make the next day or two

West share the last spot in the eight
with all teams chasing within three points
With Brisbane Norths and Manly still to play
Mesher may well not play again this season

Hawthorn members will be asked to pledge more than $2 million
to prevent the club merging with Melbourne
Former Premiership captain Don Scott
backed by other club champions
is leading the charge to keep the Hawks from going down the merger path
The former club skipper was back on the phone this morning
orchestrating what he now believes will be a rescue mission
I am really confident in raising the money
I've only spoken to six people
people that I don't even know
and I've got $10,000 already
But he's also aware another force is working against them
You actually believe that there may be some backing them up?
I don't know
You hear little things
In an unusual twist, the Hawks administration
which has already stated every option has been considered
will make all its resources available to aid the Scott-led group
I'm not interested in why they haven't done it
What we're doing is what we're doing right now
And they're supportive of it?
Oh, we're going to use their office
We're going to use their telephone line and the whole bit
Melbourne has also hit a snag with former players
resisting the proposed alliance
We would prefer the football club to remain as it is
and not have to merge with Hawthorn at this stage
Biffin says his group will meet with club president Ian Ridley tomorrow night
and mightn't oppose the merger once the true facts are presented
but he sees no similarities in the plight to the two clubs
I think there's a money problem basically
That isn't our problem at Melbourne at the moment

Now finally, a real mission impossible
A mission impossible to promote Red Nose Day
Organisers gathered 100 babies in Melbourne as part of their national launch
But soon the Red Noses were accompanied by plenty of red eyes as well
Crying babies
Red Nose Day organisers are aiming to raise $4 million on August 30th to fight sudden infant death syndrome

Captain, we've reached the designated position for scanning the coded directive, good
We've both guessed right
Negotiations with the Klingon Empire on the verge of breaking down
Starfleet Command anticipates a surprise attack
We are to proceed to Organia and take whatever steps are necessary to prevent the Klingons from using it as a base
Strategically sound, Organia is the only Class M planet in the disputed area, ideally located for use by either side
Organia's description, Mr. Spock
Inhabited by humanoids, very peaceful, friendly people, living on a primitive level, little of intrinsic value, approximately Class D- on a rectangular scale of culture
Another Armenia, Belgium
Sir
The weak innocents, they always seem to be located on the natural invasion routes
Captain, the automatic deflector scheme just popped on, body approaching
Configuration, Mr. Simmons
Music
Laser banks, lock on, return fire
Music
Maintain firing range, 100% dispersal pattern
Music
We hit him Captain, he's hurt
Damage control, report from First Officer
Captain, the other ship doesn't register
Only drifting debris, we got him
All hands, maintain general alert, hold battle status
Damage report, Mr. Spock
Miner Captain, we were most fortunate, last damage in decks 10 and 11, minor buckling in the antimatter pods, casualties are light
Maintain surveillance, Mr. Soutal
No contact Captain, he blew up our eye
Well, we've been anticipating an attack, I'd say what we've just experienced very nearly qualified
Yes, it would seem to be an unfriendly act
Automatic all points relay from Starfleet Command, Captain, code one
Music
Well there it is, war
We didn't want it, but we've got it
Curious how often you humans managed to obtain that which you do not want
War or not, we've still got a job to do, denying Organia to the Klingons
With the outbreak of hostilities that might not be easy
Plane of course for Organia, Mr. Soutal
Aye, aye, sir, negotiating with the Organians will be time consuming, Captain
And time is the one thing we will have the least of
No, we won't get it by talking about it, Mr. Spock
Trigger's been pulled, we've got to get there before the hammer falls
Ahead, Walt, back to seven
Music
Space, the final frontier
These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise
Its five year mission, to explore strange new worlds
To seek out new life and new civilizations
To boldly go where no man has gone before

Captain's log, star date, 3198.4
We have reached Organia and established standard orbit
No signs of hostile activities in this area
Captain, Unit XY75847 report a fleet of Klingon ships in their sector, sir
What bearing?
Unable to ascertain, sir
Mr. Soutal, have the phaser crews stand by their positions
Full power to Plectros
Mr. Spock and I are going down to the planet's surface
You will be in command
Your responsibility is to the Enterprise, not to us, is that clear?
Perfectly, sir
Klingon fleet is in this quadrant
We know that Organia will be a target
If they should emerge
We'll handle them, sir
You will evaluate the situation
If there is a fleet of them, you'll get out of here, Mr. Soutal
But, Captain...
No buts
You'll get to safety and alert the fleet
You will not attack alone
Mr. Spock and I will be all right
Mr. Spock, Plectros and I pay the Organians a visit
You think they have people beaming down every day?
Yes, curious lack of interest
Notice the ruins in the distance, Captain
Quite large
Yes, a fortress perhaps, a castle
Whatever it is, it would seem to be inconsistent
With the reports we've been given on this culture
Welcome
Reception committee?
Seems so
You are our visitors, welcome, welcome
I am Alebourn
I am Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise
Representing the United Federation of Planets
This is my first officer, Mr. Spock
You're most welcome, my friend
You're the captain of the Star-Ship Enterprise
I am Captain James T. Kirk of the Star-Ship Enterprise
You're most welcome, my friend
I would like to speak to someone in authority
We don't have anybody in authority
But I am the chairman of the Council of Elders
Perhaps I would do
You people are in great danger
Is there some place we can go and talk?
Oh yes, our council chambers are nearby, please
Captain, if you don't mind, I should like to wonder about the village and make some studies
Of course, my friend, our village is yours
Captain?
Gentlemen, my government has informed me that the Klingons are expected to move against your planet
With the objective of making it a base of operation against the Federation
My mission, frankly, is to keep them from doing it
What you're saying, Captain, is that we seem to have a choice between dealing with you or your enemies
No, sir
With the Federation you have a choice
You have none with the Klingons
The Klingons are a military dictatorship
War is their way of life
Life under the Klingon rule would be very unpleasant
We offer you protection
We thank you for your altruistic offer, Captain
But we really do not need your protection
We are a simple people, Captain
We have nothing that anybody could want
We have this planet and its strategic location
I assure you that you don't take action to prevent it
The Klingons will move against you just as surely as you would against the Federation
The Klingons will move against you just as surely as your sun rises
We will help you build defenses, build facilities
We have no defenses, Captain, nor are any needed
Gentlemen, I have seen what the Klingons do to planets like yours
They are organized into vast slave labor camps
No freedoms whatsoever, your goods will be confiscated
Passengers taken and killed, your leaders confined
You'll be far better off on a penal flight, infinitely better off
Captain, we see that your concern is genuine, and we are moved
But again we assure you that we are in absolutely no danger
Anybody is in danger, you are
And that concerns us greatly
It would be better if you returned to your ship as soon as possible
You keep insisting that there's no danger
I keep assuring you that there is, would you mind telling me?
It is our way of life, Captain
That's the first thing that would be lost
Excuse me, gentlemen
I'm a soldier, not a diplomat
I can only tell you the truth
If you will excuse us, Captain, we will discuss your kind offer
Yes, certainly
Captain, our information on these people and their culture is not correct
This is not a primitive society making progress toward mechanization
They are totally stagnant
There is no evidence of any progress as far back as my tricorder can register
That doesn't seem likely
Nevertheless, it is true
For tens of thousands of years there has been absolutely no advancement
No significant change in their physical environment
This is a laboratory specimen of an arrested culture
Thank you, Mr. Sparke
That might be useful
We have discussed your offer, Captain, and our opinion is unchanged
We are in no danger
We thank you for your kind offer of assistance, although we must decline it
And we strongly recommend that you leave Organia before you yourselves are endangered
Gentlemen, I must get you to reconsider
We can be of immense help to you
In addition to military aid, we can send you specialists, technicians
We can show you how to feed a thousand people where one was fed before
We can help you build schools, educate the young in the latest technological and scientific skills
Your public facilities are almost non-existent
We can help you remake your world
End disease, hunger, hardship
All we ask in return is that you let us help you
Now
Captain, I can see that you do not understand us
Perhaps
Excuse me, sir
Kirk it
Captain, a large number of Klingon vessels have just arrived
They're opening fire
Positive identification
Yes, sir
My screens are up. I can't drop them to be on your board
Mr. Sulu, follow your orders
Get out of here
Contact the fleet, return if the odds are more equal, Kirk out
Gentlemen, you kept insisting that there was no danger
That is correct, Captain. There is no danger
They have all eight space vehicles assumed orbit around our planet
They are activating their material transmission units
Thank you, Sir Fannie
Can you verify that?
Negative, Captain, but it seems a logical development
Captain, since it is too late for you to escape
Perhaps we should do something about protecting you
If you had listened to me, we must be sure that you are not harmed
Airborne, several hundred men have appeared near the citadel
They bring many weapons
How does he know that?
Oh, our friend Trephane is really quite intuitive
You can rest assured that what he says is absolutely correct
So
We're stranded here
In the middle of a Klingon occupation, Army
So it would seem
Not a very pleasant prospect
You have a gift for understatement, Mr. Spock
It's not a very pleasant prospect at all

Captain's log, star date 3201.7
Mr. Spock and I are trapped on the planet Organia
Which is in the process of being occupied by the forces of the Klingon Empire
The Organians have provided us with native clothing
In the hopes that we may be taken for Organians
Captain, our phasers are gone
Did you take them?
Yes, Captain, I took them
I must ask you to return them
I'm sorry, Captain, I cannot do that
Were you armed, you might be tempted to use violence
And that we cannot permit
You, Captain, will pass as an Organian
And Mr. Spock...
Mr. Spock presents a problem
He does not look like an Organian
A Vulcan trader, perhaps
A dealer in Kivas and Trillium
Harmless to the Klingons
They know that Vulcan is a member of the Federation
Vulcan merchants are not uncommon, Captain
It is a practical approach
What about the rest of you?
We should continue as before
We have nothing to fear
You have a lot to learn, sir
And if I know the Klingons
You will learn it in the hard way
This is the ruling council
I am Eobor, temporarily head of the council
I welcome you
No doubt you do
I am Kur, military governor of Organia
Who are you?
He is Barona, one of our leading citizens
And he has no tongue?
I have a tongue
Good
You will be taught how to use it
Where is your smile?
My what?
The stupid, idiotic smile everyone else seems to be wearing
Vulcan
Do you also have a tongue?
I am Spock, a dealer in Kivas and Trillium
You do not look like a storekeeper
Take this man, Vulcan is a member of the Federation
He may be a spy
He is not a spy
Well, we have a ram among the sheep
Do you object to us taking him?
He has done nothing
Nothing at all
Coming from an Organian, yours is practically an act of rebellion
Very good
So you welcome me
Do you also welcome me?
You are here, there is nothing I can do about it
Good, honest hatred
Very refreshing
However, it makes no difference whether you welcome me or not
I am here and I will stay
You are now subjects of the Klingon Empire
You will find there are many rules and regulations
They will be posted
Violation of the smallest of them
Will be punished by death
We shall obey your regulations, Commander
You disapprove, Baroner
You need my approval
I need your obedience
Nothing more
Will I have it?
You seem to be in command
Yes
I am
I shall need a representative from among you
Liaison between the forces of the occupation and the civil population
Smile and smile
I don't trust men who smile too much
You, Baroner, you are the man
Me? I don't want the job
Have I asked whether or not you want it?
We Klingons have a reputation for ruthlessness
You will find that it is deserved
Should one Klingon soldier be killed
A thousand Organians will die
I will have order
Is that clear?
Commander, I assure you
Our people want nothing but peace
We shall cause you no trouble
I am sure you will not
Take the Vulcan to the examination room
You come with me
I will familiarize you with your new duties
What about Mr. Spock? You are concerned
He is my friend
You have a poor choice of friends
He will be examined
If he is lying, he will die
If he is telling the truth
He will find that business has taken a turn for the worse
You do not like to be pushed
Very good
You may be a man I can deal with, Baroner
Come with me

I just accepted that my pad would scrunch up when I moved around
Which meant I never felt properly protected
But Whisper's great new double ply protection changed all that
The new dry weave top sheet is bonded to the core
So even when the pad gets bunched up
It goes back into shape and continues to absorb
Keeping me dry
I feel more protected than ever
New Whisper with double ply protection
It's cleaner, it's drier, and now protects even better
