Yes, she is Lt. Dax and her race is known as Trill.

Her name was something like Kiyo Paka.  Anyways...

It was actually *5000* photons I believe.  Anyways, a few minutes before 
O'Brien informs Kira that "...they'll get a real shock after they 
penetrate our thoron field".

 MG> Question:  O'Brien indicates that DS9 has no shields.  Later, we

I think it was figurative.  Like, "Cha, as if!  Our shields are 
pitifuls!"  It would have been better if it was under his breath.

Also, O'Brien later remarks that they can pool all their energy and 
they'll have partial weak shields.  Kira approves.

Jay Chattaway I believe.

Yeah, but when read aloud, DS9 comes out as "dee ess nine", which doesn't
roll off the tongue like "dee ess enn" does.

Not while on the station about station policy.  Sisko is still commanding
officer of that station and without Starfleet (or a good reason according
to the rules of conduct) no visiting Captain could change that.

The actor's name is Marc Alaimo and he played Gul Maset in
"The Wounded", in which Captain Ben Maxwell of the U.S.S.
Phoenix goes ape shit shooting Cardassian ships left
and right.

Marc Alaimo also played the Romulan commander in "The Neutral
Zone", the 1st season closer. He is vying with David Warner
for most roles played in ST.

I can appreciate the equality aspect of calling women "sir," but I don't
see why women must be masculinized in order to be equal.

Yes, but here in the 20th century, it has definite gender implications.  I
would feel better if they had chosen a word which did not have such a gender-
specific "past."

     Not to mention that Frakes doesn't act very well. To be fair,
     his character doesn't have much to it and there's not much of
     a chance for serious acting, but Dorn, Burton and Spiner seem
     to have managed to get past those problems. Frakes has his
     moments, but they're few and far between. My wishful thinking
     for season seven is to promote Riker to another ship, promote
     Data to First Officer, and bring back Elizabeth Dennehy's
     Shelby as Second Officer.
         
     Back after I saw "The Hunt for Red October" I thought that if
     Paramount wanted to make a movie in the Kirk era but with a
     new cast, Alec Baldwin would have made an excellent captain.

I believe the main reason that the Borg ignored the saucer section was that
Picard would have ignored it, knowing that it had only civilians on board and
almost no offensive capability.  In fact, I believe that in the episode
Weasly (no misspelling) said "The Borg are ignoring the saucer section" to
which Riker replies, "Just as you should Captain".  Since the Borg knew
everything that Picard did, they ignored the saucer section to concentrate
on the tactics of Riker on board the Enterprise battle section.  Picard
was leading the assault.  If you notice in "The Emissary", the Borg do
not take on more than oone ship at a time.  They destroy that first ship,
then they lock on to the Saratoga.  Presumably they hold it there while
they start another part of the collective to slicing it up, and concentrate
on another ship.  As further proof, notice that even in BOBW, when the saucer
starts firing the anti-matter spread, the Borg move over to it and leave the
battle section to launch it's shuttle.  Apparently, the Borg are not
multi-taskers....:)

I would vote for rec.arts.startrek.reviews.  The episode reviews are the
main reason I read r.a.s.c. now.  Ideally, it would be a moderated group
to prevent people from holding discussions there (followups would be
directed to rec.arts.startrek.current, presumably).  To keep things timely,
regular reviewers might be given permission by the moderator to post their
reviews directly, the same way rec.arts.startrek.info handles Tim Lynch's
synopses.  This can be done in any of several ways depending on how much
control the moderator wants to retain.

Thoughts?

Goldsmith knows his basic conservatory-college music theory, obviously.
Both themes are reworkings of the "Space -- the Final Frontier" motif
(G-D-F-A) -- a rising perfect fifth and a falling minor sixth, separated
by a rising minor third.  He plays with it the way classical composers
played with their themes.  The TNG Theme has as its main notes a rising
fifth and a *rising* major sixth, separated by a *falling* major third:
G (c e) D Bb (a) G.  Later in the theme he hammers away at the major
difference between the two themes, the *falling* third (F D F D   F G Ab
G Ab G F).

The DS9 Theme has the same rising fifth, embellished in the same way G
(c e) D.  Then he goes *up* a minor third, like the original motif,
unlike TNG: F.  And then he does other stuff (e f g ...).  I know this
looks like numerology, but it's a pretty safe bet that Goldsmith had
this stuff in mind, using it as a theme generator, the way music
students are taught to think.

I am an impatiant trek fan and desperatly want it on video...

I have a video that is capable of playing back NTSC recordings,
