NNN, Net-News Division

Chaos erupted on Inter-Galactic Speedway #43214546 when two tankers, one with a load of neo-gen-fish from Altaira and one with a load of pre-whipped generic whipping cream colided, sending 1.4mt of non-processed fish and 8mt of whipped cream across the spaceway. Authorities had nearly restored order when a school of space-dolphins and a hairball of space-cats arrived on the scene, nearly simultaniously.

'It was horrendous' commented one spectator. 'There were guts everywhere. I'll never eat fish again!'

'We just left. There was nothing we could do' Said one patrolbeing, who asked to remain annonymous.

When asked for comment, one of the space-dolphins said 'Yeah, it was pretty good'

No comments were obtained from the space-cats, although the Redway-Glenwood-Xcl'cx hospital informs us that Bob's scratches should be completly healed in a month. Sorry about that, Bob. But even with a granite carapace, you really shouldn't have come between the cats and all that creamy fish.

GNN, Cornelia,

Shuttlecraft Flight school attendant Blurb Xaxica went on a rampage today, killing 120 civilians before ramming the school office building with his shuttle. Local authorities say it's much too early to assess motives, but a fellow student says he was failing to please one of the dead teachers.

Shouldn't that be the Texras Hegemony?

Then it wouldn't be a race from SE4.

GNN, Gateway Station, Dividia

Opening ceremonies commenced today at Gateway Station, one of a pair of matched Klingon space stations at either end of the Dividia-Mirzaan wormhole. The wormhole is an extremely rough ride, due to strong gravitational effects, and ships are often damaged passing through. Gateway station's mission is a repair stop.

The stations are cloaked from normal detection, hiding eerily in the turbulence. Enemy ships meet only the exit space station, after being battered through the worm hole. Klingon shock troops and tractor beams plan to claim all enemy fleets who dare pass through.
