I don't know Swahili, but since a long voyage thru space (where no man has gone before) could be considered the ultimate freedom (really get away from it all),
could her name also perhaps be translated "Star Trek"? I maybe be stretching

When Picard was assimilated by the Borg (or as we say in Indiana, 'assimulated')

Logans run is ancient. It was originally a film starring Michael York &
Jenny Agutter (drool). The TV series was an unsuccessful spin-off made in
the mid '70's AFAICR.

It was based on the old idea of a civilisation that requires adults to be 
terminated at a given age. In the case of LR it was about 30 I think. 
Logan was a Sandman. Sandman were sent out to track down and kill anyone
that tried to get away with their ritual death. In the film however,
after Logan was sent out to  catch one, he got caught up in the
idea of 'sanctury' - a place where you could live for ever. He then
tried to get there with the help of the escapee. They found an old man
(ie a lot older than 30) that proved it must exist. He then returned
with the old man to the city to prove that death wasn't necessary.
End of film with lots of peope staring at the old man wondering
what he was etc.

The TV series carried on with the search for sanctury.

I agree with you.  Have you read any of Ayn Rand's novels.  Many of the
concepts in ST are based on her ideas (ie. objectivisim, egoism etc)

this particular episode was based on a very short novel called "Anathem"

You might want to buy a copy of:
  
 A to Zine: The "How-To" of Fan Publishing
 
written by Paula Smith.  It's a 16 page booklet that gives an 
overview, at least, of many aspects of zine publishing: how to 
get submissions, story editing, copy editing, proofreading, 
publishing methods, proper treatment of your contributors, 
copyright info, pricing your zine and so forth.  Parts of it are 
out of date (it was originally published in 1982), devoting too 
much space to the techniques of ditto and mimeo and too little on 
the use of computers, but it's still a good first resource.

I have no idea where this message should be posted, I only know that it
**should** be posted.  I'm posting here only because I know this board 
is widely read and someone should be able to get this message 
to the right place.

In today's paper (Cleveland Plain Dealer) it was reported that a 22-year
old male got arrested for distributing pornography, and possibly for
contributing to the delinquency of a minor.  His "crime" was running a
bulletin board out of his home ... the cops found out that minors were able
to get ahold of pornographic gif files.  The arrestee had apparently set
things up so that "adult" files were supposed to be restricted, but either
the files weren't restricted after all, or someone else had "unrestricted"
them.  The paper reports that this type of arrest is one of the first of
its kind in the state.  The cops used a "cooperative" 15 year old -- after
the kid accessed the adult files, the cops grabbed the alleged criminal.

If any Ohio law enforcement types are reading this, I am an Ohio attorney,
and I think this sucks.

Quite true.  New research indicates that previous drafts of Macbeth 
featured a Scottish king named Kirk who was murdered by the Thane of
Cawdor, an, ahem, "enterprising" man named MacCoy (also the working title
of the play).  Toward the end of the play, Lady MacCoy throws a beggar
out of the castle, crying, "Out, out, damn Spock!"  The pretender king,
MacCoy, is killed in a brutal sword fight with a Scotsman called "Scotty."
(In later drafts, his name was changed to MacDuff.)
     Also, the first draft of Hamlet was originally called Hikaru.  It
featured a young Danish prince who was convinced his father, the late
King Chekov had been killed by Hikaru's uncle Sulu.  Hikaru's odd
behavior eventually causes his girlfriend (Uhura) to go mad and drown
herself.


Not.

RULES FOR FIZZBIN


FIZZBIN IS A GAME THAT IS UNSURPASSED IN
COMPLEXITY  AND  ORIGINALITY.  SIX CARDS
ARE DEALT TO EVERY PLAYER, EXCEPT TO THE
DEALER AND THE PLAYER ON HIS  LEFT (YOU)
WHO GET SEVEN.  THE SECOND  CARDS OF YOU
AND THE DEALER ARE DEALT FACE-UP.

THE PLAYER ON THE DEALER'S LEFT GETS THE
FIRST PLAY, WHICH THEN PROCEEDS COUNTER-
CLOCK-WISE
THERE  IS ONE  DISCARD  PILE  FOR  EVERY
PLAYER.  TO PLAY, YOU MAY DRAW FROM  ANY
ONE OF  THE FOUR,  OR YOU  MAY DRAW FROM
THE STACK (CALLED PILE 0)

IF THE CARD YOU DRAW IS A KING OR A TWO,
YOU MAY DRAW AGAIN,  UNLESS IT IS NIGHT,
IN WHICH CASE YOU MUST DRAW A QUEEN OR A
FOUR.

IF YOU DRAW A QUEEN OR A FOUR (OR A KING
OR A 2 AT NIGHT),  YOU MUST  IMMEDIATELY
DISCARD IT, AND THEN CONTINUE ON TO  THE
NEXT STEP
AFTER YOU HAVE DRAW YOUR CARD(S) AND YOU
HAVE DISCARDED THE QUEEN OR FOUR (IF  IT
IS NECESSARY), YOU MUST DISCARD  ANOTHER
CARD ON ANY ONE OF THE FOUR PILES.

IF YOU  DREW  FROM THE  STACK,  YOU  MAY
DISCARD THE CARD YOU DREW.  IF YOU  DREW
FROM ONE OF THE DISCARD PILES, YOU  MUST
KEEP THAT CARD.

TO DECLARE  WHICH CARD  YOU  WANT TO GET
RID OF,  YOU ENTER  THE RANK FOLLOWED BY
THE INITIAL OF THE SUIT,  I.E.,  'QH' IS
THE QUEEN OF HEARTS
PLAY CONTINUES UNTIL SOMEONE DESIRES  TO
DRAW FROM THE STACK, AND CANNOT. AT THAT
TIME, THE CARDS OF ALL FOUR PLAYERS  ARE
REVEALED  AND  COMPARED BY THE FOLLOWING
SCALE--



1.  THE BEST HAND IS A ROYAL FIZZBIN. IT
    CONSISTS OF A KING AND A TWO, (OR  A
    QUEEN AND A FOUR AT NIGHT),  AND ANY
    TWO PAIRS OF ACES, JACKS, OR SEVENS.
    SUCH AS: K2AA77  K2AAJJ  K277JJ     
2.  THE NEXT BEST HAND IS A FULL FIZZBIN
    IT IS A KING AND A TWO,  (OR A QUEEN
    A FOUR AT NIGHT),  AND ANY  ONE PAIR
    OF ACES, JACKS, OR SEVENS.

    SUCH AS:  K277  K2JJ  K2AA



3.  THE NEXT HAND IS THE  THREE-QUARTERS
    FIZZBIN, WHICH CONSISTS OF A  THREE,
    A FIVE, A SIX, AN EIGHT, A NINE, AND
    A TEN, ALL RED, EXCEPT AT NIGHT WHEN
    THEY MUST ALL BE BLACK.
4.  THE LOWEST WINNING HAND IS THE HALF-
    FIZZBIN, WHICH CONSISTS OF  ANY PAIR
    OF SEVENS, JACKS, OR ACES.

    SUCH AS: 77 JJ AA



5.  THE WORST HAND OF ALL IS *ANY* THREE
    OR FOUR OF A KIND. THAT IS A SHRONK,
    ANY YOU AUTOMATICALLY LOSE.

AS YOU CAN SEE, FIZZBIN IS ESSENTIALLY A
VERY SIMPLE GAME.   FURTHERMORE,  IF YOU
DON'T DO VERY WELL IN ONE HAND,  YOU CAN
ALWAYS  TRY AGAIN AFTER THE  TRADITIONAL
CHALLENGE--

BEST TWO OUT OF THREE?

I saw this model in my local hobby store. It's made by the same people who
make most of the ST models, AMC(?) I think. I was very surprised, it said it
contained the model itself, wiring for lighting (didn't say the actual lights
were included) and a sound chip for sound effects. The thing that made me 
suspicious was that it was only priced around $40...
